Fireworks of Romance: No More Pretending, I'll Come Clean-This Lady Has Real Skills!

In some ways, this market was quite bustling.

A burly Butcher with three heads was busy hawking his wares; Witch Doctor shrouded in black robes sat cross-legged by the street, setting up a stall; and an old Daoist priest, with a whisk in hand and a banner proclaiming Heavenly Mystery Divine Calculation, spoke eloquently to the Three-legged Monster before him...

The coexistence of humans and Inhuman Existence creates a bizarre yet harmonious scene.

After finally shaking off the incessantly chattering Mud Swamp Monster beside them, Bai Zhi and Fireworks of Romance stopped in a rather secluded corner.

"Alright, ask me anything now, just remember not to say anything later."

Turning his head, Bai Zhi spoke to the Fireworks of Romance.

"Um... what have you been doing from just now until now?"

After thinking for a moment, and not knowing how to ask, Fireworks of Romance simply asked the most general question.

"To be honest, I have absolutely no idea what you're doing... What kind of look is that?"

"Seeing the look in a High School Student's eyes when they can't even solve elementary school math problems... Okay, let me just highlight the key points."

After a moment's thought, Bai Zhi began to speak.

"The sound coming from the loudspeaker... we were ambushed shortly after entering that Breeding Farm. There were many corpses buried under the Soil in the Flower Field, some of them still fresh, clearly recently deceased. Also, there were many Number Plate in the Soil made of the same material as the ones we have... What can you connect these clues to?"

"It's obvious that many trainee Chef died in that Sea of Flowers."

Fireworks of Romance raised their hands without hesitation in answering.

"... What's the difference between saying that and not saying anything at all?"

Looking at the confident Young Girl in front of him, Bai Zhi suddenly felt a slight toothache.

"Ahem... So, many Intern Chef like us were ambushed when they entered that Breeding Farm during their exploration, and then they were eaten by the Flower Field?"

Fireworks of Romance coughed slightly a few times.

"There must be someone watching over the Breeding Farm, just like the person making the announcement over the loudspeaker. It's just that the person in charge of this Breeding Farm is rather ruthless; they want to use all the Intern Chef go there to explore as fertilizer for the Flower Field. Judging from the corpses buried under the Soil, the Flower Field needs flesh and blood to grow. However, compared to those low-grade Animal Ingredients, we Chef are clearly the more suitable 'Item.' So, if that's the case, it's not surprising that the person in charge of the Breeding Farm wants to target us; it's not the first time anyway."

As he continued speaking, Fireworks of Romance looked thoughtful.

"Our kitchen is numbered 094. Even ignoring the distinction between low-level and high-level kitchens, there are at least 94 kitchens like this. Since common can't be Chef, the Chef in the other kitchens must be Player similar to us. Assuming that we novice Chef all have the same treatment and environment, then those Player will naturally be eager to explore this restaurant. Judging from the lushness of that Flower Field, countless Player were previously tricked by that manager... I understand."

Suddenly, he clenched his fist and clapped his hands. Fireworks of Romance looked as if he had just realized something, then looked up at Bai Zhi with burning eyes.

"I remember you once said you didn't hold grudges."

"I really don't hold grudges, because if I do have a grudge, I usually settle it on the spot."

It was rare that he didn't have to spend a lot of time explaining, and while feeling slightly relieved, Bai Zhi shrugged slightly.

"What if it can't be reported on the spot?"

"I'll keep that in mind and report it later. I still haven't forgotten that guy who cheated me out of 50 Game Coins Novice Period."

"50 Game Coins...?"

"To be precise, it was 1 Game Coins, because I wasn't scammed."

Bai Zhi held up a finger in front of him, his face solemn.

Fireworks of Romance: "..."

Some things, when explained, have a very simple cause and effect.

After entering that Breeding Farm, Bai Zhi planned to leave and explore other areas, since places like that didn't offer much exploration value.

However, plans are always subject to change. Seeing the Fireworks of Romance over the Flower Field from the mountaintop was one thing, but then the cage that fell from the sky was another.

Regardless of what the person in charge of the Breeding Farm was up to, it was certain that he had ill intentions, so Bai Zhi naturally didn't need to be polite to him.

Since the other party intends to use the corpses of these Intern Chef as fertilizer to irrigate the Flower Field, it is only reasonable for him to borrow the most precious thing in the Flower Field.

To be honest, if a riot breaks out in the Flower Field, he really wouldn't be able to handle it with his current strength.

The Breeding Farm is an independent world, just like Orchardist plants a world like Fruit Tree in his orchard. This restaurant, on the other hand, treats a world as Breeding Farm and keeps it in captivity.

However, one thing is certain: the latter is in a much better situation than the former.

However, there is definitely more than one Breeding Farm, so Bai Zhi cannot draw a clear conclusion on this matter for the time being.

The reason he was able to confirm that the Breeding Farm was a separate world was because of the Shadow Guard.

The Shadow Guard's teleportation and Displacement ability is only effective within the same world. In that Breeding Farm, he couldn't escape by swapping positions with the two Shadow Guard Freeze in the Ingredient Area of the kitchen.

The reason he rushed back here after leaving the Breeding Farm was quite simple: he wasn't sure if the person in charge of the Breeding Farm would come after him in a fit of rage.

There are many people here, so it's easy to hide.

Bai Zhi originally thought he would have to explain a lot to others as usual, but Fireworks of Romance's performance was beyond his expectations.

He initially thought the other person was a goofball, but it turned out they were actually quite capable...

When talking to intelligent people, you don't need to explain too much.

"Speaking of which, what exactly did you take from that Sea of Flowers? What made them act so violently?"

After a moment, Fireworks of Romance couldn't help but ask Bai Zhi.

"A good thing."

Bai Zhi gave the Young Girl in front of him a mysterious smile.

"No... I'm not going to say anything about 'see it all' or anything like that, since you got it all through your own Strength. But I just want to know what you got, is that alright?"

Seeing the mysterious expression on Bai Zhi's face, Fireworks of Romance Yue's curiosity grew stronger, and she reluctantly spoke up.

"Even if you don't want to show it to me for confidentiality reasons, and don't want to tell me the name or anything, that's fine. But at least tell me what the Quality of that thing is, okay?"

"Epic."
