Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar
Chapter 230 - 124: Getting Fries at the Dock [6k]
He Ghost General usually stays at the Ghost Gate, seldom paying attention to matters outside.
It was only earlier that he overheard a colleague mention that Lu Wenwu seemed to have done something extraordinary outside, something that moved heaven and earth, making him quite famous, which left some impression on him.
At this moment, when Lu Wenwu mentioned cooking himself, he was a bit hesitant and didn’t know what kind of trick the other was playing.
The other old ghosts watching the commotion were winking at He Ghost General like crazy, but he was still confused, not understanding how his old buddies suddenly started acting like they had a stroke, with crooked mouths and slanted eyes.
The Deputy Commander seemed to find this interesting and chuckled lightly: "Just agree, those wealthy folks outside are willing to pay for a meal from this little Violent Dragon, an amount equal to your annual salary. Look, that group over there is so eager, they wish they could agree on your behalf."
"Young... Young Master Duo? A year?!"
He Ghost General suddenly felt his head buzzing, completely dumbstruck.
A single meal would cost his entire annual salary!
The life of the rich is beyond his understanding... wait a minute!
The person they’re seeking a meal from is this self-proclaimed Invincible Tyrannosaurus War God?
Finally, an old ghost couldn’t help but tease, "If you really dislike it, let me have this chance. I don’t mind. I will take you to the Yin Ghost Tower to have fun, order the most expensive four headlining dishes, and drink the best Spirit Wine with you."
"Yeah, Old He, just for the sake of our many years of friendship, give it to me. I promise to handle this matter clearly for you," another old ghost said with a laugh, "It’s too deep here, you can’t handle it. Give it to me, I’ll handle it for you."
"If you ask me, Old He, you should hand over this opportunity... oh no! This hassle to me, I’m the ghost who loves to help others the most. They call me Timely Rain Xiao Song..."
"..."
"Forget it, I’m an honest ghost, not teasing you anymore."
After the hubbub, an honest-looking ghost pursed his lips.
"The one who almost killed you just now is now addressed as Brother Wu across the culinary world outside, even crowned by many foodies as the ’God of Egg-Stuffed Pancakes’. He is currently the newly appointed R&D engineer and Spiritual Cuisine Consultant at the Food Bureau."
"No one else can say, in the realm of egg-stuffed pancakes, he is undoubtedly this," a potbellied ghost gave a thumbs-up, pointing upwards.
"The God of Egg-Stuffed Pancakes... God?!" He Ghost General’s mouth dropped open, "By Emperor Dongyue... are they serious? How can the word ’God’ be used so casually amongst us!"
"No worries."
Even the previously cold-as-blade mouth of the Deputy Commander slightly curved into a smile.
"The cooking realm of Violent Dragon’s egg-stuffed pancakes embodies All Laws Connect to God."
"I... I... this..."
He Ghost General was already too shocked to speak, with a tendency to start rambling.
Seeing this, the Deputy Commander shook his head helplessly, directly agreeing on his behalf, and gestured for the ghosts watching the show to take He Ghost General back to the dorm to rest.
The ghosts stationed as Guardians here all have dorms and barracks, unlike those other public servants who commute daily by ghost ship.
The rookies who passed the Yin Soldiers exam were also taken by another Ghost General for a new round of baseline testing.
The Deputy Commander signaled Lu Wenwu to follow him, skipping the unnecessary preliminary procedures, entering directly into the public selection phase of each department.
If he really unleashes, pushing the True Sun Fire to its extreme, he could even take on S-Tier Ghost Kings several times.
The fire’s restraint on ghosts is too powerful; those tests set for ordinary ghosts hold no meaning for him.
Halfway, the Deputy Commander suddenly asked in a low voice, "What was the name of that last punch?"
"Overlord Fist, Foundation Quality," Lu Wenwu answered truthfully, "Although I’ve incorporated much of my own understanding into it, differing now from its original Inheritance Quality, its roots indeed trace back to it."
"Because of the True Sun Fire?" the Deputy Commander pursued.
"Hard to say, my True Sun Fire came unexpectedly after biting into a piece of Scorching Sun Crystal. It tasted average, but the texture was nice, a bit like chocolate lava cake."
After thinking for a while, Lu Wenwu shrugged, somewhat unsurely continued.
"As for the fist technique... maybe it’s because I have a slight talent in this area? Originally, I used an Ultimate Skill Inference Card, but halfway through, my power of thought kicked in, and it ultimately became Foundation level. I honestly don’t know what happened!"
The Essence of the Sun refined by the three-legged crow, Scorching Sun Crystal?!
Taking a bite?
And gain the True Sun Fire along the way?
Do you hear what you’re saying is even humanly possible?
That stuff is a once-in-a-lifetime treasure, which lucky soul wouldn’t cherish it once obtained, hunting for all sorts of rare supplemental materials to craft it into elixir or some other form, using or refining it bit by bit.
If your flame affinity was just slightly off, you’d be turned to ash in an instant upon refining into your body!
You just bite into it...
The Deputy Commander was now questioning his ghostly life.
If Lu Wenwu’s earlier words made him barely hold it together, the latter ones made him want to smack him on the spot.
Using an Ultimate Skill level Inference Card to forcibly push an Inheritance level fist technique to Foundation level, and you claim you have only a slight bit of talent?
