"No gifts will be accepted for the holidays this year, only Wahaha Authentic Brain Essence will be accepted."
Red Dragonfly stretched out Referee Baton, and Mike projected a shadow of a beautifully wrapped gift box on the wind.
"Wahaha Authentic Brain Essence is made from the brain tissue of Deep-Sea Laughing Frog. It is pure natural, pollution-free and has strong effects."
"One bottle will strengthen your body, two bottles will nourish yin and strengthen yang, and three bottles will make you look young again and keep you smiling!"
"Order now and you'll get a frogskin sofa and a clamshell safe as a gift. The quantity is limited, first come first served!"
"Order phone number, 8383838438!"
Red Dragonfly finished the advertisement in a passionate tone, and then put away the projection with an expressionless face.
"Does a big shot like you still want to advertise?"
Liu Zheng asked curiously.
"I'm not a big shot, I'm just a referee."
Red Dragonfly shook his head.
"Moreover, the main body only provides basic equipment. If we want to add anything, we have to spend our own money."
"It's impossible to work part-time. I can only accept some advertisements to make a living."
It sighed and said.
"That's it, Captain, do you think you dropped the things on the ground?"
Liu Zheng suddenly pointed at the ground and said.
On the plain wooden floor, a thick stack of banknotes lay peacefully.
"No, you dropped it."
Red Dragonfly shook his head.
"Stop trying. As a referee, I can't do anything that will affect fairness and justice."
it said.
"I'm not a contestant now."
"That's the same."
Red Dragonfly insisted.
"Then if you collect money to help others advertise, it should also affect fairness and justice, right?"
Liu Zheng said.
"I will not host inter-corporate competitions."
"What if it's an executive of a company or a relative of an executive?"
He pointed out the flaws in Red Dragonfly's words.
". Then I will still ensure that the game is fair and just."
Red Dragonfly hesitated and said.
"Then you can maintain the same attitude towards me."
Liu Zheng smiled.
"Luckily it wasn't you who made Thought Core for us, otherwise we would have turned into strange things long ago. You humans are really scary."
Red Dragonfly was silent for a moment, and then said sincerely.
"It's human nature to make rules and find loopholes in the rules."
"But while looking for loopholes in the rules, you are also weakening the protection of the rules for you. Therefore, I will not accept your money, and I will not accept any advertisements."
Many ghost advertisements suddenly appeared on Red Dragonfly's Referee Baton, and then they all disappeared.
And a golden edge appeared on each of its two pairs of wings.
Red Dragonfly seemed to feel something, and looked back, then a hint of joy appeared on his face.
"Congratulations."
Liu Zheng I don't know what happened, but it should be a good thing anyway.
"This is all thanks to you, young man. It's a pity that I have nothing to repay you with."
Red Dragonfly said with some distress.
"Having a presence like you in Metropolis is already the greatest reward for me."
He smiled and said.
After all, it is very tiring to deal with those monsters and monsters all the time.
Although Red Dragonfly is not a "good person", Metropolis is already considered a more anthropomorphic person.
"I said, can the game start?"
Guokou Tangzi was waiting impatiently.
"Okay then, let me go back to the competition site. On my left is the former eldest sister of Ultimate Flavor Group and her entries."
Red Dragonfly immediately switched back to the role, but the pronunciation of the word "front" was emphasized.
"Hey."
Guokou Tangzi curled his lips.
"So contestant Guokou Tangzi, what is the name of your entry?"
Red Dragonfly put Mike wind to her mouth.
"The name of my soup is Amaterasu Grand Soup."
Guokou Tangzi said.
"It's a very domineering and culturally distinctive name. So, what's your evaluation of your work?"
Red Dragonfly then asked.
"Great flavor, no need for too much salt."
Guokou Tangzi said with a stinking look on his face.
"I am so confident that I can spin my Referee Baton, and the applause comes from the audience."
Both of them looked at Liu Zheng.
"Ah? Oh."
He quickly drummed his tentacles vigorously.
Fortunately, he has four tentacles, which can make quite a lot of movement when inflated.
"Because another contestant was not good at talking, we invited his colleagues to discover it for him as a representative."
Red Dragonfly stretched Mike wind in front of Liu Zheng.
"Excuse me, what is the name of its entry?"
it asked.
"How do I know what the name is?"
Liu Zheng said speechlessly.
He didn't even open the lid of the pot and didn't know what was inside.
"An entry without a name is incomplete. You'd better come up with one for it."
Red Dragonfly insisted.
"Then call it 'soup in a million pots'."
Liu Zheng thought for a while and said.
"Very good! A very simple yet bold name. This is probably the corporate culture of Bloodstained Restaurant. Let us warmly applaud this representative for his creativity."
Red Dragonfly said loudly.
"Uh"
Seeing its serious expression, he could only pump his tentacles harder.
But thinking about the Delivery Department's lounge that is not even as good as Sento's locker room, and then thinking about Cow-Horse and his own style of acting, Red Dragonfly's words seem to be correct.
"Okay then, the two contestants of this competition and their entries have been introduced."
"Now, the competition officially begins! Based on the principle of proximity, let us first taste the entries of contestant Napoleon."
Red Dragonfly motioned to Liu Zheng to put down the soup pot.
"Bloodstained Restaurant is the most famous Restaurant of Metropolis. Its status in the field of gourmet food has never been shaken by anyone."
"As the chef of Bloodstained Restaurant, contestant Napoleon must have reached the pinnacle of stew soup."
"Okay, let's taste this ingenious creation."
Red Dragonfly opened the lid of the pot.
A cloud of red smoke rose from the pot, then exploded and threw itself into the faces of everyone present.
Everyone's expressions changed immediately, and the extremely shocking spicy smell hit their nostrils like Red Dragonfly's Referee Baton.
Their faces turned red instantly, as if they had been soaked in Soup Pool at 180 degrees Celsius for three days and three nights.
But soon, a cloud of green smoke rose and spread again.
The refreshing scent of vanilla floated into their nostrils, gently blowing on their nerves stimulated by the spicy taste.
The red complexion quickly faded away, and what remained on his face was subconscious intoxication.
"As expected of chef Bloodstained Restaurant's work, it has already taken the spotlight before I even drank it. It was just a prelude, and it fully aroused my sense of taste, smell and vision. It is more luxurious than the top perfume."
"I feel like my appetite has been completely aroused. Even a cup of ordinary plain water can be drunk with gusto, let alone a pot of delicious stew."
"Guokou Tangzi player, facing such a tough opponent, are you feeling nervous at this moment?"
Red Dragonfly handed Mike the wind to Guokou Tangzi.
"Not nervous at all."
Guokou Tangzi said with a stern face.
"Oh? Why? I saw that you were obviously infected by the prelude just now."
Red Dragonfly asked curiously.
"Chefs don't make soup based on flavor."
Guokou Tangzi shook his head.
"Then for what?"
"Careful."
she said.
"Careful? There is no heart in the list of materials for this competition."
Red Dragonfly is a little confused.
". I'm talking about the heart of the soul."
Guokou Tangzi said speechlessly.
"Hahaha, of course I know, it was just a little bit of humor."
Red Dragonfly let out a heroic laugh.
Guokou Tangzi frowned and cast a questioning look at Liu Zheng.
"Where on earth did you find such an unknown product?"
The latter shrugged, indicating that he was also innocent.
When I contacted him before, Red Dragonfly didn't do anything like this.
Then again, it's hard to say whether this Red Dragonfly is the one he saw for the first time.
But anyway, as long as the functions are the same, that's fine.
"It seems that Guokou Tangzi contestant lacks some sense of humor. But it doesn't matter. As a chef, the level of cooking skills is the foundation of life."
"Okay, let's officially taste this 'soup with a million pots'."
Red Dragonfly picked up the spoon in the pot and scooped out a little soup.
The pure white and thick soup looks like it has added cream, which is a standard Western soup recipe.
You can't tell anything about the other Liu Zheng. After all, he is not a professional cook.
"Delicious!"
Red Dragonfly took a sip and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Just the right seasoning, distinct flavors, and at least hundreds of flavor substances. Each flavor conflicts with and combines with each other, and finally converges into a thick soup that is mainly salty and sweet."
"The spicy and exciting taste when opening the lid was not reflected in the soup at all. It's really amazing."
It was amazing.
Bloodstained Restaurant is indeed well-deserved. Just for this pot of soup, it would not have been in vain to host this competition.
"Guokou Tangzi player, do you want to taste it?"
Red Dragonfly asked.
Although the result of the game must be based on what it announces, it is also one of the referee's jobs to convince the players.
"Okay."
Guokou Tangzi came over and took a bite with his own spoon.
"Not bad, but that's all."
She nodded, her face calm.
"It seems that contestant Guokou Tangzi is very confident in her work. So, let me see if her work is worthy of her confidence."
Red Dragonfly walked to Guokou Tangzi's soup pot and opened the lid.
There was no abnormality, only a little heat came out.
The soup in the soup pot is as clear as water, with some green scallions floating on the surface.
The soup base that can be seen clearly at a glance only contains some tofu cut into small pieces and kelp.
"Ultimate Flavor Group used to be Metropolis's cutting-edge food organization. Ultimate Flavor Hall founded by Ultimate Flavor Group once ranked among the top ten of Metropolis's most popular restaurants in just one year."
"Unfortunately, because of the use of contraband in the food competition, it was disqualified from the competition. Ultimate Flavor Hall was also ordered to shut down and has never recovered since."
"But this Guokou Tangzi player, the current eldest sister of the Kukakukan, has shown extremely strong confidence."
"Is she bluffing or is she confident? Will Ultimate Flavor Group get this chance to rise from the ashes?"
"Don't go away, I will reveal the answer to you below."
Red Dragonfly scooped up a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth.
