This Text Adventure Game is definitely poisonous-Chapter 1209 - 543: Opening the Coffin

"Finding a few... chefs?"

Jiu You was quite perplexed at the moment.

The Ghost Captain had suddenly contacted him, and he initially thought there was an urgent matter, but the request that followed was truly baffling.

"Yes, preferably chefs who specialize in barbecue," Mu You said.

"Uh, what’s this about, God?"

Mu You had no choice but to briefly explain his plan to use another’s hand to achieve his goal.

"I see..." After hearing the explanation, Jiu You finally understood, and was also somewhat surprised. Even the Nine-Star Titan, which fears the gigantic octopus, couldn’t believe that after the encounter, Mu You could actually bring back a severed tentacle of the creature. Mu You truly lived up to his reputation.

"Well, that’s the situation. You just help me find some reliable chefs, and I’ll cover the commission," Mu You said.

"Uh, God, you jest. There’s no need for a commission, this is a significant event benefiting all players. You take the initiative to offer something so valuable, we wouldn’t know how to compensate," Jiu You said sweatily.

As long as they could resolve the threat of this titan, they would be able to use Divine Skin to kill monsters afterward, making everything much easier.

At this point, even if Mu You hadn’t mentioned it, they would definitely cooperate proactively.

After finalizing the details with Jiu You, Mu You left the same day, taking the Octopus Amputee with him and flew to the capital.

At Dragon Group Headquarters, when Mu You arrived, there were already several people dressed as chefs waiting there, reputedly all national banquet chefs, so their skills were certainly up to the mark.

"Is this... the ingredient?" At that moment, several chefs looked at the gigantic, squirming octopus leg on the ground, all somewhat dumbfounded.

They had been assembled hurriedly, told only that there was an important task, but had not been given more details, thinking it was another scenario where they had to research special ingredients from the Star Spirit World.

Indeed, they were to prepare the ingredient, but... it was enormous.

The chefs looked at Mu You oddly; being players themselves, they all knew that the Lord of Dawn City had an Octopus King pet, and now they suspected that the Ghost Captain might have just chopped off a leg of the Octopus King.

"God, are there any specific cooking requirements?" one of the chefs asked.

"There are no specific requirements. Just make it look as delicious as possible," Mu You said and then remembered something, adding, "Oh, and try not to damage its main structure too much, but you can work on the skin, remove the octopus’s suckers and leave only the flesh. If it could remain in one piece and not resemble an octopus, that would be ideal."

He eventually needed to send this back into the game, and in-game items had a 50% integrity restriction on extraction. If it was too damaged, it might not send back.

"Can we use lots of seasoning?" another chef asked somewhat troubledly.

With such a large piece of flesh and not allowing cuts, flavoring it deeply would only be possible with strong seasoning.

"Use as much as you need, even to lethal quantities!" Mu You said.

"Alright, we understand..."

The chefs then nodded, grasping what Mu You meant.

"Good luck, the future of humanity is in your hands," Mu You encouraged them.

The chefs suddenly felt important, though unaware of where this octopus leg would ultimately be used, the mysterious mission was sure to have a significant impact.

Feeling proud, they all rubbed their hands eagerly and threw themselves into the task.

Mu You left the octopus leg behind and returned to City K, leaving this professional matter to professional hands.

That night, Mu You logged into the game again.

[In the dead of night, you appear on a street near the Natural Wonder Museum.]

[Ahead, the museum’s entrance is brightly lit, crowded with people. Numerous reporters from various newspapers and radio stations, cameras in hand, rush back and forth. The frequent flashes of cameras, more numerous than the reporters, are the tourists who have gathered after hearing the news, a variety of people shuttling among them, holding invitations from the museum, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement...]

[Hundreds of police officers are spread out on the street, tasked with maintaining order, incredibly busy. You even spot several tanks and armored vehicles in the distance...]

[At the museum’s main entrance, a row of armed soldiers stands, with a checkpoint set up in front. Everyone has to queue at the entrance, verifying their identity and presenting tickets to be admitted...]

[You hear the sound of several helicopters occasionally flying overhead...]

As expected, the military had taken over the place tonight. It seemed the city’s human leaders had anticipated that the coffin unveiling ceremony might indeed attract real vampires and were prepared for a battle.

Mu You controlled his character into a nearby alley, attacked a lone junior reporter coming in, killed them, and took their equipment along with an invitation.

Mu You checked the invitation information; the real unveiling was starting at midnight.

Mu You wasn’t in a rush to enter, patiently waiting outside until around 11:30 PM in game time before he started moving.

[You activate ’Transform,’ taking on the appearance of the reporter, a camera and notepad slung over your shoulder as you head toward the museum entrance.]

[A soldier stops you, demanding to check your ID and tickets.]
