Chapter 713

~5 min read 1,000 words

starting a fire,

piles of campfires were lit.

When night fell,

this gathering place was filled with campfires releasing light and heat, adding a bit of warmth and brightness to the night.

'Sizzle, sizzle...'

'Sizzle, sizzle...'

On the campfire,

fatty and lean beef was being skewered by branches, sizzling and making noise.

The organizers didn't provide ingredients, but unexpectedly provided some basic seasonings, which made tonight's dinner much more delicious.

The taste of dishes with seasonings and dishes without seasonings is worlds apart.

Soon,

the barbecue was ready.

The person who made it was Nakiri Erina.

She held the branch and brought it close to her nose to smell it, "Give me that fruit that looks like a tomato."

Leng Shuang handed it over.

Nakiri Erina squeezed it with her hand, dripping the juice from the red tomato onto the barbecue.

"Miss Leng, have a taste."

"Hmm."

Leng Shuang took it and smelled it.

A sour and sweet fragrance.

She opened her mouth slightly and took a bite.

After the sour and sweet, the fragrance and tenderness of the barbecue quickly spread on the tip of her tongue, impacting her taste buds and transmitting to her brain along the nerves.

"Woo..."

"Delicious."

Leng Shuang couldn't help but say.

"It would be better if there were professional kitchenware and more seasonings. I also haven't mastered the correct and reasonable cooking methods for these meats and vegetables."

"It's already very delicious."

Leng Shuang felt this was already the most delicious barbecue she had ever eaten.

But Nakiri Erina shook her head, not very satisfied.

She had also taken a bite just now; it was edible, but not enough.

Although there was the influence of the external environment, it also had to do with her execution not being up to par.

As a chef, one should be able to cook any ingredient at any time and in any place, bringing out the deliciousness of the ingredients and letting guests taste the best dishes.

But this time...

Sigh!

Nakiri Erina was not satisfied.

"Miss Leng, Miss Nakiri is an honor student at Totsuki Academy. For her, the taste of this barbecue is far from reaching her requirements."

Leng Shuang also knew Lin Ye was right, "For me, it's delicious, that's enough. Nakiri, don't be too conflicted. After returning alive, you can make it repeatedly until you make a dish that satisfies you."

"The special ingredients here won't be available again."

Nakiri Erina looked at the various different ingredients.

Although many of the ingredients here had a certain connection to reality, there were still relatively obvious differences between the two sides.

"There will be. As long as this kind of ingredient has appeared, it will definitely appear again."

Leng Shuang also knew how tempting rare and novel ingredients were to a chef.

A flash of surprise appeared in Nakiri Erina's eyes.

Soon, she returned to calm.

"Thank you."

She looked toward Lin Ye, "And thank you too, Mr. Zero."

"Shouldn't I be the one saying thank you now?"

Lin Ye laughed, "Miss Nakiri, you gave me a huge surprise."

That the increased 350 Eerie Coins were Nakiri Erina's masterpiece—Lin Ye truly hadn't expected that.

"For you, is an extra 350 Eerie Coins a surprise?"

"Of course, and you successfully played tricks on the organizer's host. Isn't this matter a huge surprise? I truly didn't expect him to be tricked and trapped."

Clearly,

the host was confident that the bet was a sure win,

and Nakiri Erina seized this opportunity, the host's psychology, and the organizers' face, finally successfully reaching a bet agreement with the masked host.

And he had successfully brought back the ingredients.

"I just had confidence in you. Initially, the host also wanted me to join them. Since he wanted to bet, he definitely needed to provide an equal stake."

She finally could only think that Eerie Coins were the most valuable stake.

"Thank you."

"Don't thank me. You didn't let me down either; you successfully brought back the ingredients. But where did you get so many ingredients?"

This doubt had been bothering Nakiri Erina until now.

She finally found a chance to ask.

"Very simple."

Lin Ye looked around and noticed there was no one else nearby, so he said, "The organizers precisely collected the red fruits and vegetables."

Nakiri Erina was stunned.

She understood.

It turned out Lin Ye had gone to ransack the organizers' warehouse!

At the same time, she realized even more the organizers' targeting of Lin Ye, the thick malice—to deal with Lin Ye, they even sent people to rush to collect the ingredients first.

If this had been any other group, it would have been completely impossible to complete the task.

"Next, we will continue to be targeted, right!"

The blonde girl realized this point.

Being targeted by the organizers is not a good thing.

"We will."

You are so calm.

Leng Shuang is also so calm, not taking it seriously at all.

Nakiri Erina only felt in her heart whether she was the only one worried.

"Don't worry, worrying is useless."

"..."

"The organizers targeting us won't change because of our will. What we need to do is do our own part. For tomorrow's project, we will adapt to circumstances. I believe the final victory still belongs to us."

Nakiri Erina didn't actually have much reaction to simple encouraging words,

but Lin Ye's words truly made her feel much more at ease, and her worried heart also weakened a lot.

"Hmm."

She hummed, and held a branch, handing a piece of barbecue to Lin Ye.

"Here."

"I thought Miss Nakiri had forgotten me."

"Forget anyone, but I couldn't forget you."

She leaned over and squeezed the red tomato juice onto the barbecue for Lin Ye.

Lin Ye took a bite, feeling the deliciousness of this barbecue, his mood was great.

Nakiri Erina felt the taste of the God Tongue after a while.

She knew she was sharing the taste with Lin Ye once again.

How strange,
