Three days later, at the dock connected to the Huangpu River on the outskirts of Shanghai—
Le Yuan and his party of six, together with Tang Sanjie and his servant A Gang, a total of eight people came to the designated place under the moonlight carrying lanterns.
"Sorry, Subaru!" Tang Sanjie looked at the ground uncertainly, not daring to look at Liu Subaru and said, "In order to bring my father and the others out together, I had to drag you in."
Liu Pleiax shook his head, without any worries on his face, and looked at the incomplete moon in the sky and said, "Don't say that, we came to help you voluntarily, three heroes! There is no way to find out the truth without going deep into the tiger's den, and we can't I really want to know if the guys in the dark cooking world also got kitchen utensils!”
"The boat is coming!" Suddenly Le Yuan pointed at a small boat floating over not far away and said.
Everyone looked up, and sure enough, a gloomy old man in black robes rowed a small boat slowly towards everyone.
"Clang-" The small wooden boat hit the shore and made a soft sound. The gloomy old man standing in the suit showed a zombie face and said in a very hoarse tone: "Long wait, I will take you to the agreed place."
"Master, how are they doing?" Ah Gang, who was eager to protect his master, asked quickly after seeing the person coming.
"Hehe, the boss of Longzhen Restaurant and the others are naturally safe and sound. They are VIPs in our dark culinary world. We will never let them die so easily before we get what we want."
The man in black who was punting the boat chuckled, then squatted down to put it on and rummaged around for something. After a while, he picked up a few black cloth straps and said to the crowd: "Please tie this around your eyes." Come on, not everyone can go where we go!”
"A Yuan, is this possible? These guys in the dark cooking world won't play dirty tricks, right?" Master Jie made a clicking gesture towards his neck. No matter what, he was worried about leaving his life to others. people.
Le Yuan jumped directly onto the boat, then took the black belt from the zombie-faced man and tied it on his face: "It's okay. If these guys really want to play dirty tricks, I will make them regret it. Besides, they are still If we don’t get what we want, we won’t die so quickly.”
After everyone got on the boat blindfolded, the zombie-faced man chuckled and rowed out of the port from the inland waterway towards the Huangpu River.
Half an hour later, just when everyone thought they still needed to wait. The zombie-faced man said: "Please take off the covering cloth! Our destination has arrived."
After regaining his vision, Master Jie looked at the place not far from his boat and said, "Huh? Is it my imagination? Why is there something so huge on the river..."
"It's true! But it's so dark that I can't see clearly!" Shiro on the side replied trying to open his eyes wide.
At this moment, the huge black object on the opposite side suddenly lit up, illuminating the entire river surface, revealing its true form.
It was an astonishingly large building ship, more than a hundred meters long and more than thirty meters high. It could be said to be the most luxurious wooden ship Le Yuan had ever seen in all the world. That's right, such an incredibly large building ship is made of wood. There is a huge wheel in the center of the hull, and above it is a large Hei Yunlin logo.
"This, is this a castle on the water?" Tang Sanjie and Liu Pleiaxing were so frightened by the monster boat on the river that they were speechless for a long time. They could only look at the others and asked.
As a former member of the dark cuisine world, Ren said with some uncertainty: "Could it be that this is the rumored... Lou Lin Ship of the dark cuisine world!"
The zombie-faced man slid the boat to the side of the building, and a rope ladder suddenly slid down from the building. The zombie-faced man pointed to the rope ladder without saying anything, and then tried hard to secure the boat to the edge of the building.
Entering the interior of the huge ship from one side, a man with a zombie face led the way, but no one else was seen along the way, as if it was a ghost ship.
There was insufficient lighting inside the building, and the zombie-faced man was walking at the front of the team holding a small lantern, walking step by step in the unknown passage leading to it, and said in his hoarse, dry voice: "Please come here!"
Although the interior of the building was dimly lit, Liu Pleiades could still see the luxury and grandeur of the ship through the carved decorations in the walkways. As a huge building that was rare to see in the dark world, there were definitely not a few enemies here.
"Gulu—" Liu Pleiades swallowed his saliva, looked at Le Yuan who had always looked calm and asked: "Brother Le Yuan, aren't you worried at all? We must be surrounded by our enemies, and we are very likely to be attacked. They caught them all in one fell swoop!”
"A Subaru, haven't you already made such a determination?" Le Yuan did not look back. In the long passage, Le Yuan's voice was clearly conveyed to the ears of everyone present: "From the beginning, I chose to stand From the moment we faced each other in the dark culinary world, we have been in a state of embarrassment from all sides. The guys in the dark culinary world are always looking for opportunities, trying to use their cuisine to convince us in the light world. You will have this kind of confrontation in the future Often encountered.”
After passing through a long passage, everyone came to a huge wooden gate. The burning bonfires on both sides allowed the group to see what atmosphere was. The flashing gate in the building was actually ten meters high, which was almost the same height as the city gate.
"I admire you! You didn't run away!" Suddenly, a strange man's voice rang out from the dragon stone pillars on both sides of the door. This voice that suddenly came to mind in the empty corridor shocked Shiro and Meili on the side.
"Then please enter our 'main battlefield'!" Following the strange man's voice, the door in front of him suddenly opened to the outside.
"Hmph! What a way of pretending to be a ghost!" Master Jie patted the still trembling Shiro, pointed at the Panlong stone pillars on both sides and said: "The stone pillars on both sides are specially made and can transmit the sound from the next room here, but this is Little tricks can only be used to deceive children. If you want to rely on this trick to make us timid before fighting, you are looking down on us!"
Entering the so-called "battlefield", what comes into view is a huge cooking competition arena, with auditoriums on the left and right, filled with chefs from the dark culinary world wearing black robes.
As for the crowd, there is a row of judges' seats. There were a total of five people sitting on it, and standing in front of the judges' table was the trio who were let go by Le Yuan three days ago.
Xiang En, who was wearing a black robe, came out as the mouthpiece of the dark cooking world and said to a group of people in Le Yuan: "You should know that our purpose is to obtain the legendary kitchen utensils."
"But we can't ask the Shanghai cuisine community for no reason and hand over the legendary kitchen utensils to us unconditionally. Therefore, we held this competition openly, and the winner will get the ownership of the kitchen utensils!"
Looking at Xiang En who was telling lies with his eyes open, Tang Sanjie, who didn't know whether his father was alive or dead, cursed directly: "You arrest people to be human beings, and you dare to say that you are aboveboard? Release my father and the others quickly!"
Xiang En couldn't help but narrowed his eyes after hearing this, looked at Tang Sanjie with contempt and said, "Isn't that too ugly? What hostages? We have already asked those elders to rest in another place. They can fight with them as soon as the game is over. You guys left together. And Tang Sanjie! Your father was very happy to give us the map of the bar kitchenware seal area, but he said that the key to unlocking the enemy group is in your hands. Won't you take it out for us to inspect? ?”
Looking at the ancient map that Xiang En took out, Le Yuan stretched out his right hand and flicked it. A strong wind shot out from his finger. In the blink of an eye, it hit Xiang En's wrist holding the map. Then he only saw A black shadow flashed past, and the map was in Le Yuan's hands.
"It's you again! Le Yuan!" Xiang En looked angrily at Le Yuan holding his map in his hand, waving his hands to the people on both sides and shouting: "Give him a little color to see, we in the dark cooking world are nothing Anyone can afford it.”
Immediately, the "audiences" in the auditorium rushed out of the auditorium and rushed towards Le Yuan. The black robes on their bodies fell into pieces with their roars.
Le Yuan was surprised when the black robes revealed their true colors. I saw a group of guys who were originally in normal shape. After shattering the black robes, their bodies suddenly lifted up, their muscles all bulged, and they all turned into devilish muscular men.
There are twenty-two people in total, and the strength and speed of each one exceeds the ability of an average D-level pure physical player. Twenty-two of them would attack an average C-level player at the same time, and they might be confused.
However, they obviously chose the wrong opponent. Le Yuan disappeared from their sight as soon as his legs exerted force. In the blink of an eye, Le Yuan stopped in front of one of the muscular men and smashed him with a cannon punch. He opened the air and hit the muscular man in front of him with a loud bang.
"Boom-" The muscular man who was hit by Le Yuan suddenly fell into the auditorium on one side, splashing a pile of sawdust.
"Damn it, hurry up and catch him!" Xiang En, who was watching the battle, gritted his teeth and pointed at Le Yuan who appeared and shouted.
"Roar—" A group of muscular men with amazing power but no method of using it roared and rushed towards Le Yuan again.
A gust of wind suddenly blew over the muscular man's eyes, and then they felt a sting in their eyes. They couldn't help but close their eyes, and tears couldn't stop falling down.
With energy gushing out, Le Yuan whipped the muscular man in front of him, kicking him and the three people behind him into the auditorium. They were piled together, and they could only lie there crying for their father and mother.
Five minutes later...
Looking at the pile of humanoid garbage in the audience, Xiang En completely lost the courage to retaliate. Cold sweat fell from the side of his face, and he murmured: "How is it possible? How can the elites cultivated by our dark cooking world be so easy?" After being killed, he was obviously an ordinary person without any force two years ago!"
"The right to speak is now in my hands, and you are the one who is being coerced!" Le Yuan shook the map in his hand and said slowly: "From now on, I will decide the rules of the game. We are going to have an open and fair game. competition!"
"That's right, the game must be fair and aboveboard, why don't you return my father and the others quickly!" Tang Sanjie saw the situation suddenly reversed and shouted to Xiang En.
"This can't be done. The person on this ship who can make the final decision is not me. He will only appear in the last game."
Xiang En refused Tang Sanjie's request to see his father.
