Chapter 57
[You signed up for the World Food Awards.]
[Your culinary skills far surpassed others, allowing you to breeze through, facing little competition.]
[Through diligent research, combining your extraordinary talent with this world’s special system, you developed two different types of cuisine that aligned with Dark Arts and Healing Arts.]
[Dark Arts: It retained the powerful “toxicity” of your dark cuisine, mainly focusing on transforming the deliciousness of food. Anyone who tasted it would beco irresistibly addicted to the flavor. The “toxicity” gradually penetrated deep into their psyche, making them crave more and more, while increasing ntal pollution.]
[Healing Arts: It retained the terrible taste of your dark cuisine, mainly focusing on transforming the “toxicity” of the dishes. Not only were they harmless, but they also had a healing effect on the mind. Anyone who tasted it would cry from the awful flavor, but its powerful healing effect in dispelling ntal pollution was also astonishing. The more one ate, the stronger the healing effect, but also the more severe the damage to taste buds and tongue.]
[The dark cuisine that was addictively delicious yet toxic, and the healing cuisine that tasted awful yet beneficial. These two types of cuisine you developed and created caused a sensation at the Food Awards, categorized as unique products of “Depressing Art”.]
[You thus beca the top winner of the Food Awards, earning the highest title of “Food God” in this competition.]
“One more bite, let
have one more bite! Just one!”
“No more, I really can’t eat anymore, I can’t take another bite, don’t co near ! Stay away!”
The World Food Awards ca to a perfect close, with so people being dragged away while laughing and crying hysterically, and another group who, although their ntal pollution was cleared, looked as if they had suffered severe ntal torture in the background.
Clearly, these were all victims of “Bai’s Cuisine”.
As the culprit, Bai Yi, carrying the honors he had won all the way through, showed a refreshed smile.
“La la la, with my current level, I feel I could totally open my own restaurant and be a head chef in the future.”
He happily imagined for a while.
[Main quest completed 3/3, you have obtained the title of God in the three fields of painting/music/cuisine.]
[Achievent system has been refreshed…]
[You have obtained the achievent “It’s Death God, not Food God”.]
[Description: To enjoy deliciousness, one must pay the price of ntal pollution or even death. To heal pollution, one must pay the price of taste bud torture. You have demonstrated through action that Food God and Death God differ by only one character. So Food Gods are actually misplaced Death Gods, always finding ways to bring death-like experiences to diners.]
[Having obtained the title of God in three art fields, eting the basic conditions of the main quest, do you choose to complete the settlent?]
Bai Yi chose to refuse. “Not settling yet. This instance still has considerable room for improvent~”
Whether it was the other art fields that hadn’t been fully explored, or the world view that hadn’t been deciphered, or his “Depressing Art” that could be further developed, clearly all of these still had room for in-depth developnt and exploration.
However, having spent nearly a week on this instance, Bai Yi didn’t plan to continue grinding.
He chose to temporarily save and enter AFK mode.
— So far, Bai Yi had given this character sufficiently ample characteristics. The remaining art fields that hadn’t been fully explored and the Depressing Art awaiting further developnt would be left for this character to complete on its own.
He just needed to reap the fattened results in the end!
[AFK mode activated.]
[Under AFK mode, ti accelerates within the Nightmare Fragnt instance. The ga character will continue to grow according to the characteristics given by the player, with the system extrapolating its fate line for a period of ti until it reasonably reaches its peak.]
[The main characteristics the player has given to the ga character [Joey] are: [Socially Adept] [Fast Friends] [Human Genius] [Master of Depressing Art] [Art Above All] [Cold] [Obsessive] [Tenacious].]
[Based on the world view within the Nightmare Fragnt instance, the system will extrapolate the character’s future fate line accordingly.]
…..
As everything in the instance temporarily ca to an end, Bai Yi erged from the deep sea filled with star fragnts and woke up.
At this mont, a series of blurry black words appeared floating in mid-air.
[Your life skill “Dark Cuisine lv3” has transford due to a special trigger, upgrading to an extraordinary skill.]
[Click to view attribute panel.]
“Oh my! This is unexpected.”
Bai Yi raised his eyebrows in surprise, his tone unconsciously lengthening.
After choosing to view the attribute panel, he quickly glanced over the familiar content, focusing his gaze on the new entry that appeared in the center of the supernatural skills.
Dark Cuisine lv1
Using ordinary ingredients, different ntal energies can be infused into the cuisine, infecting the eater’s mind. The degree of infection depends on the eater’s ntal willpower.Using special ingredients will trigger different effects, causing positive or negative impacts on the eater.Special depressing cuisine: A unique cuisine that combines healing cuisine and dark cuisine, possessing characteristics of both. During consumption, the eater will continuously make willpower checks. Passing results in
1 to ntal attributes, failing results in -1. If reduced to a certain level, they will enter a state of insanity, losing rationality.
[Note: To elevate an ordinary life skill to this level, your talent in dark cuisine is truly astonishing. Every diner willing to taste your dark cuisine is a rare animal worth protecting. Please cherish them.]
“Oh ho!” Bai Yi’s first reaction was, “Does this an I can now infuse all kinds of chaotic ntal waves I receive daily into my dishes?”
He then thought about his previous plan to open a restaurant, and made so upgrades to the original plan—
“If I could put all sorts of ssy ntal waves into different dishes, and then sell them to different custors like mystery boxes, wouldn’t it be interesting to watch their reactions when they taste these dishes?”
“…Especially for those who constantly produce foul garbage, it would be even more interesting to stuff the garbage they produce back into their own stomachs, wouldn’t it~”
Thinking about the character he had carefully cultivated in the instance, Bai Yi suddenly beca very interested in the new card he was about to receive.
But for now, he would let it continue to fatten up in AFK mode. There was also a card he had obtained long ago that he hadn’t used yet.
Bai Yi stretched out his palm, and accompanied by a faint glow, an ethereal card slowly materialized in his palm.
Long hair disheveled, hemp clothes snow-white, a long sword reflecting cold light like an autumn stream, amidst flying snow, the swordsman arrives on the wind. His snow-white clothes flutter, and the entire card turns with it.
Lines of black text appear on the back of the card—
[The Lawless One]
[Ancestor of Martial Arts, Enemy of Immortal Dao]
[False Son of Destiny, True Source of All Evil]
[No Dao, No Heaven, No Sentient Beings, The Great Dao Is Within ]
