Strange Rules: It doesn't matter, the system will take care of it.

Chapter 166 What Did You Add to the Rice?

Hahahahahahaha.

Chen Feng suddenly smiled with relief.

This kind of person is the most cunning; they carry a toy wooden knife and walk around aimlessly.

Entering the realm of exploding buildings in one step, sweeping away all obstacles.

Once you enter the Street Explosion Realm, you are invincible.

Entering the Exploding City Realm in one step, the absence of a sword is more powerful than having one.

"Is this the level of power in Cihang City?"

Previously, the evil cultivator Mu Hao had fought against the six people from a year later, with a record of five losses and one draw.

At that moment, Chen Feng thought, "Mu Hao actually didn't win, what an idiot."

Right now, Chen Feng was thinking, "Mu Hao is actually still alive, that's awesome!"

Jing Longri walked up to Chen Feng, bowed, and said, "Thank you for your help. I will remember this favor. If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

Chen Feng was waiting for these words, but he was still in a daze and didn't react for a moment.

Seeing that Chen Feng did not reply, Jing Longri asked, "My benefactor, are you angry?"

"Huh? Really?"

Chen Feng frowned, his eyes narrowed to slits, his mouth gaped open, and his face contorted as he said, "Look at my face, it looks very peaceful. I'm not angry at all."

[Ding! You have triggered the blue attribute: One-Life Speedrun. Killing the first boss monster you encounter grants you one extra save point.]

[Ding! You have triggered an equipment drop: Bloodstone, which, when socketed into your weapon, will tear open enemy wounds upon attacking, causing them to bleed continuously. This bleeding effect will not stop until the enemy receives treatment.]

That's fine.

Chen Feng, who was originally baring his teeth and looking so jealous that he was unrecognizable, suddenly felt comfortable all over when he heard about the system reward. His back and waist no longer ached.

then.

Chen Feng explained his purpose: "I want you to kill someone. Don't worry, it's a bad person."

"Okay, I'll go with you," Jing Longri readily agreed, "but could you wait for me a moment?"

Jing Longri dug a pit, then held the victims in his hands and buried them one by one in the ground.

Such a light movement.

Chen Feng knew that with the warrior's current speed, it would only take a moment to complete these tasks, but the other party was extremely serious and slow, as if handling fragile glass with utmost care.

She is a gentle person.

With a thud.

Jinglong knelt on the ground, the joy of gaining power vanishing in an instant, replaced by the sorrow of being powerless to protect: "The dojo left by my father, the fellow disciples in the dojo, and my only relative—I can't protect any of it."

"This is not your fault."

Chen Feng comforted him, "These flesh and blood monsters should have been wiped out long ago."

Jing Longri raised his head: "Shouldn't have done it sooner?"

Chen Feng recounted how the savior stopped him from destroying the Flesh and Blood Willow Tree and killed people everywhere to force him to show himself.

Jing Longri was furious: "You bastard, what does he think his life is?"

a long time.

Jing Longri rose and swore, "Brother, I swear to my sword, I will slay all the flesh monsters!"

"Don't worry, I'll help you." Chen Feng snapped his fingers. "And your brother too."

In the void.

The figure of the black hand appeared, and at the same time, there was also an unfamiliar little ghost: "Boss, this kid just became a ghost. Even if I help him input soul power, he won't be able to show himself for more than a few seconds. Speak quickly if you have something to say."

The little devil called out, "Brother!"

Jing Longri was dumbfounded: "Moon?"

Cihang City is shrouded in red mist. If it is a powerful vengeful spirit like Afei or Black Hand, it will be fine. But if a slightly weaker soul is entangled in the red mist, it will be corrupted and destroyed on the spot.

Last time, Chen Feng failed to save Li Guolong and the Riyue brothers because of this.

This time, Chen Feng was smarter. The moment he engaged the Flesh Tyrant, he unleashed his Black Hand to do the work.

The two brothers were chatting.

Black Hand whispered to Chen Feng, "Boss, this red mist is so thick, I can't protect this brat for long."

Chen Feng understood: "You mean we have to pay more?"

The Black Hand said with difficulty, "Even with more money, it's still hard to do. I'm only good at killing, not protecting."

There's only one way left.

The Happiness Internet Cafe has a Soul Palace with a farming system that can prevent the red mist from corroding it.

As long as Chen Feng uses the ghost-catching system to recruit his younger brother as his subordinate.

He could use the teleportation function of Happiness Internet Cafe to go back, and then use the summoning function of the Ghost Catching System to directly summon Jing Longyue from Cihang City to the Soul Palace.

Of course, Chen Feng needed to obtain the family's consent beforehand: "Actually, reincarnation and leaving Cihang is a good thing."

Anyway, the Ghost King is no longer working.

But Jing Longyue insisted, "No, I want to stay by my brother's side and help him!"

Jing Longri also nodded: "Yes, we two brothers will not be separated."

Goodness, one is obsessed with his brother, and the other is obsessed with his younger brother.

Chen Feng had Hei Shou lightly flick Jing Longyue's forehead.

[Moon Demon defeated]

[Fulfilling the Moon Demon's Wish: To Reunite with Her Brother]

[Conditions for taming have been met]

[Ding! Congratulations on subduing the supreme vengeful spirit: Moon Ghost★]

The ultimate ghost-catching system has been upgraded to version 3.0.

Your vengeful spirit can now break through to level ten or higher.

Now you don't need to grant wishes, you can subdue vengeful spirits simply by defeating them.

"I'll go."

"A top-tier vengeful spirit?"

Is the samurai's brother really that powerful? He can actually upgrade the 2.0 system?

If Chen Feng weren't afraid of being stabbed by the samurai, he would have said, "Sometimes, the dead are more useful than the living."

Dude, your brother is a natural-born ghost!

No, he should be called a genius.

After his initial excitement, Chen Feng thought about it again and realized it wasn't that powerful: "I remember the last time the ghost-catching system was upgraded was when I met Brother Dao."

"Even that good-for-nothing Brother Dao could activate the ghost-catching system, so maybe my brother is just as bad."

"Wait a minute, could it be that Brother Dao is actually really awesome?"

Considering that both the Great and Small Ghost Kings were eliminated, the Ghost King is still alive.

Chen Feng couldn't help but wonder, "Brother Dao, could it be the Ghost King?"

After activating the teleportation array, the samurai and himself were transported to the Happiness Internet Cafe outside the city.

Chen Feng immediately noticed that the magical girl was about to leave.

At this moment, she had transformed from a short-haired, flat-chested woman into a baby-faced, large-breasted woman with twin ponytails: "Hey, even though you took care of Xiao Ai, I also helped you stop that bastard savior, so I don't owe you anything. I'm leaving!"

"Don't go yet!"

The Demon Lord said that to deal with the savior, one must gather the chosen ones. Chen Feng was even hoping to team up with the magical girls to fight together.

A gust of wind blew by.

Chen Feng saw a fist the size of a sandbag stop in front of his face.

"Pooh!"

The magical girl spat, "Don't think that just because I helped you, you're one of us. I just don't like that bastard. If you make me unhappy, I'll kill you too!"

The black cat suddenly appeared out of nowhere: "Yeah, meow! Don't push your luck, meow! The Abyss Witch isn't someone a mortal like you can command, meow!"

Snapped!

The magical girl grabbed the cat's head with a swift movement, unleashing a sonic boom and flinging the black cat away like a shot put: "Don't interrupt me when I'm talking!"

"Sorry, meow, I won't do it again, meow!"

The black cat turned into stars.

That's too brutal.

Chen Feng swallowed hard, knowing full well that the magical girl after her transformation was unpredictable. If he said the wrong thing, he might be smashed into mincemeat and his game would be over in a flash.

So he said, "What I mean is, let's have a meal before we leave."

The magical girl grabbed Chen Feng and lifted him up: "Do you think I'd even want a meal from you?"

"It's delicious."

How delicious is it?

Since it's a gourmet system, Chen Feng decided to take a gamble: "So delicious that two people next to me would die without even knowing."

"real?"

The magical girl put Chen Feng down. "Then I'll give you one chance. If it's not tasty, you're dead."

Chen Feng, who had been put down, was covered in sweat: "Food System, you absolutely have to work hard!"

[Ding! You can now select your personal head chef]

Chef 1: Gourmet Hunter, one of the Four Great Gourmet Kings, Super Glutton

Chef 2: The God of Cookery with Eight Legendary Kitchen Utensils

[Chef San: A Cat Who Can Cook, So Cool]

How do I choose?

As the saying goes, if the cook doesn't steal, the grains won't be harvested.

Although the title of Gourmet Hunter is impressive, he is actually a big eater. Chen Feng is worried that the guy will steal his top-grade ingredient, "Black Lion Ape Brain Marrow".

In contrast.

The introduction to the God of Cookery is much better, and it also includes the legendary kitchen utensils.

I think most people would choose the first two.

But Chen Feng's main selling point is his rebellious spirit: "I choose Chef Chosan."

Please, a cat that can cook is so cool!

Chen Feng summoned the head chef on the first floor of the Happiness Internet Cafe.

A blue portal opened.

A large, bipedal, black cat, about two meters tall, emerged.

It wore a patterned apron stained with oil, a white chef's hat, and had a sharp yellow eye on its left side, while a scar on its right eyelid suggested it was blind.

Behind it followed four humanoid cat minions, each over a meter tall and resembling Siamese cats.

The big cat grunted and said in a deep voice:

"I am the head chef!"

"Welcome, guest! Do you know what's most important when you go out to fight?"

Chen Feng was overwhelmed by the imposing aura and cautiously asked, "The most important thing is getting out?"

"wrong!"

The head chef pointed to the blind man and said, "Before a battle, the most important thing is to have a full stomach!"

"This eye of mine is a result of fighting a dragon when I was starving."

A cat fought a dragon and managed to escape unscathed?

Chen Feng could tell that this person must have been a big shot in the past.

"So you must eat well!"

The head chef pulled a menu out of his pocket and tossed it to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng quickly scanned the menu: "Thick-cut steak on a hot plate, super seafood baked rice, secret-recipe charcoal-grilled dragon tail, abalone cream soup... why isn't there a single vegetarian dish?"

"Because only by eating meat can you gain strength!"

At the head chef's signal, four cat servants carried out lobsters, steaks, seasonings, and other ingredients from the portal.

At this moment, the system also began prompting Chen Feng to select the four dishes.

"Luck is definitely the best choice; I can get temporary points for completing the next task."

"Let's have a mass resurrection."

"One more mana regeneration spell, combined with my blue buff, and I'll become a spell machine gun."

"Finally, a double cast buff will allow me to cast two meteors."

Chen Feng quickly selected all the dishes and their effects.

Meanwhile, the sounds of cooking downstairs attracted everyone's attention.

The husky, with its incredibly sensitive nose, was the first to come downstairs: "It smells so good, even better than poop!"

"My God, have you ever eaten anything that stinks worse than shit?" Fatty is more enthusiastic than anyone else when there's food around.

"Is this a cat demon?" The new samurai drew his sword, thinking that the enemy had arrived.

Little did he know.

At Happiness Internet Cafe, humans are the minority.

She Qingqing, Magical Girl, Old Wolf, Husky, Shark King, and that group of ghosts on the third floor—none of them are human.

She Qingqing pouted, clearly unhappy that Chen Feng had brought a cook without telling her: "I'm the one who's in charge of everyone's meals."

The aroma of grilling wafted over.

Four little cats, moving in unison, stood on a scorching hot stone slab and laid out thick-cut steaks, dragon tails, fresh shrimp, crabs, and other ingredients.

The rising smoke and the sizzling sound of grease dripping onto the flames accompanied the smoke.

Everyone swallowed hard.

Fragrant!

Next, Little Cat tossed the steak into the air, picked up a kitchen knife, and with a few deft strokes, the large piece of meat was precisely separated into equal small pieces.

"Excellent swordsmanship!"

The samurai couldn't help but cheer. Just now, he seemed to have gleaned many profound insights from the kitten's swordsmanship.

"This works?"

Chen Feng sensed the warrior's aura rising slightly again and couldn't help but complain, "Stop! You better focus on your cultivation, you bastard!"

Soon, the meal was nearing its end.

The head chef, who had been sitting in the main seat without moving, suddenly had a glint in his eye.

It moved, it moved.

The head chef stretched out his right arm, picked up a small pinch of salt with his cat paw, and then raised it high, bringing his elbow up to near his ear. His muscles were tense, and the salt grains fell from his fingertips, cascading onto the ingredients like a waterfall, making a "crackling" sound.

Finally, carefully add a few more sprigs of herbs.

"Done! Everyone, please enjoy!"

After delivering a powerful shout, the head chef wiped the sweat from his brow with a cat's paw and sighed, "So tired!"

You're tired my ass.

Chen Feng thought to himself, "They talked such big, but all they did was rub salt into the wound?"

But the next second, after the salt was sprinkled on, the four dishes suddenly emitted a dazzling light!

Holy crap, this dish is glowing!

Chen Feng understood. Without the chef's step of sprinkling salt, the ingredients wouldn't have the buff effect, so it still depended on the chef.

"Hmph, playing tricks."

Looking at the stunned crowd, the magical girl scoffed, "A bunch of bumpkins! I've invaded so many worlds in the Abyss, what kind of delicacies haven't I tasted?"

After saying that, the magical girl took out a piece of skewered meat and stuffed it into her mouth.

Then, her fair face suddenly flushed red.

The magical girl's voice trembled as she asked, "What! What is this! What exactly was added to it?"

Seeing such an exaggerated reaction, Chen Feng couldn't help but complain: How did you manage to make someone cry?

But after taking a bite, he couldn't help but burst into tears: "The rich and layered flavor of this broth, the thick and juicy steak, it's so delicious it makes me cry."

Everyone devoured the food, licking the plates clean.

Afterwards, everyone felt that their magical power was inexhaustible and their vitality was terrifyingly strong, and their understanding of magic became even deeper.

Group resurrection, mana restoration, and double casting.

This is the food system, the most valuable team-up system.

But that's not all.

The only one to eat the special meal, the Emerald Ape Brain Jelly, suddenly had a bright idea: "I feel like everything is back."
