Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Ahem, then... let's start scoring!"

The judges felt a little embarrassed after their appreciation of the deliciousness and taste faded, because they still had the feeling of tasting Chef Carlo's work again after they had tasted Liu Subaru's cooking completely!

From the appetizer to the final dessert, everything...looks exactly the same to them!

It even made the judges feel that they weren't judges in the competition, but spectators watching the magic...

"Wait a minute! Fellow judges, our'Germinate team' submission is not over yet, and afternoon tea will be prepared for you later." Liu Subaru stopped.

Only then did the five judges react... by the way!The other four members of the "Germinate Team" are not idle either!

First, it was because Pleiades Liu was in front, and it was very eye-catching when cooking. Second, because Subaru Liu’s cooking was the same as Chef Carlo, so after the last one, they had the illusion that they had finished the presentation!

That's right, Liu Subaru is a complete copy this time, but the process has been simplified, and no changes have been made to the recipe...

Because even a simple copy, it has reached the limit of Liu Subaru, both physically and mentally, can no longer spare time to use the "multiple spice inequality" to optimize the spice ratio.

However, it is true that the ability of "deep soup pot" and Liu Subaru's super olfactory match very well!

If Chef Carlo has the ability to "multiple spice inequalities", he might already be a dragon chef...

After Liu Subaru had copied Chef Carlo's cooking as it was, Suwon Dongmi and the other four presented afternoon tea including milk cap coffee, fried rice balls, tuna mud bread and other pastries.

Because Liu Subaru chose to copy the recipe of Italian chef Carlos, the main frame of the afternoon tea recipe was designed by Suwon Dongmi. As an Italian chef, Suwon Dongmi naturally understood how to cooperate with Liu Subaru...

And Gan Hyugako’s cooking spirit has also contributed. Gan Hyugako’s cooking spirit is a typical female image dressed up by Yamato Nadeshiko, which is not the same as her dark-bellied personality, so Liu Subaru once suspected, Gan Hyugako’s cooking spirit There is also the ability to hide.

But regardless of whether there is hidden ability, the normal effect of "Yamato Nadeshiko" cooking heart is to soothe the soul and relax...

The judges who were caught in a state of self-doubt because they had tasted Liu Subaru's copy of the recipe, after tasting the afternoon tea, their hearts gradually calmed down.

The final score came out soon...

When seeing the scores on the broadcast screen, even the professional host of ceremonies could not help but speak, and then he reacted and announced: "39.08 points! Surprisingly dark horse!'Germinate ranked fourth in the individual competition. The team', despite being suspended for one person, still won the highest score so far in the team game!"

As expected by Pleiades Liu, the judges really gave a completely duplicated dinner plus afternoon tea, which scored slightly higher than the original Chef Carlo's dinner.

It's not that the afternoon tea of ​​Suwon and others is only worth 0.1 points, but to this extent, the extra points for the icing on the cake are not so big...

After Liu Maoxing and others left the field, they did not leave immediately. Several others remained off the field, watching how the "central food team" behind was preparing to lose their ugliness...

Just now their leader, Andre, made a huge mistake and made the almost finished pastry completely scrapped.

And they have no self-judgment ability at all, so they chose to bite the bullet and speed up. The more anxious they are, the messier, worse, and more wrong they are!

Liu Subaru first caught up with Chef Carlo who was about to leave...

"Mr. Carlo! Wait a minute..."

"En? What's the matter? Chef Liu Subaru Star!" Carlo, who has always been calm, didn't have a good face to Liu Subaru at this time.

Most of my heart is unhappy with Liu Subaru's "copying" of his own work, and the other half is uncontrollable jealousy...

Carlo has also discovered that Liu Subaru's own cooking skills are not as good as him, but "simple" imitating... What kind of learning ability is this?

Looking at Liu Subaru, who was only sixteen at this time, Carlo even believed that he could achieve his current achievements before he was 20 years old!

Such a talent is simply God's mockery of all the cooks... Carlo thought this way for a while.

"I'm here to say thank you, thanks to my luck, I got behind Chef Carlo and I got through... otherwise I will be eliminated in all likelihood." Liu Subaru said.

Carlo took a closer look at Liu Subaru and found that he was indeed thanking him sincerely, rather than sarcastically, and his face looked a little better.

Thinking that he is a senior after all, Liu Subaru did this for a reason. Besides, using the increase-ratio tactics in the game, that is, after the opponent is doing better, it was originally a normal method...

It's just that others' increasing tactics are at most imitating and getting close to the opponent in terms of dishes and cuisine. Liu Subaru directly coincides with the opponent...

"En...you young people are still growing up, you still have to have your own characteristics when cooking." Carlo said briefly and left.

After that, Liu Subaru did not return to the stadium, but a little anxiously returned to the hotel where they usually rest.

Because he hadn't seen Erina before... to be precise, he hadn't seen anyone from the "Seed Team"!

Erina and the others played the game five days ago. After the game, they don’t need to be "isolated" anymore. If there is no accident, they would not miss the Pleiades’s game today!

So nervously, Liu Subaru also ran back to the hotel not far from the stadium and knocked on Erina's door.

On the way back, Pleiades Liu also heard some people's comments. I don't know if it has anything to do with Erina's absence today...

Many people have just watched the live broadcast of Pleiades Liu’s previous game, and many are still laughing at Andre’s mistakes due to the influence of Pleiades Liu. At the same time, many people also talked about being as young as Pleiades Liu in the game a few days ago. Erina was "fainted" on the spot with her opponent on the same stage.

...The one who opened the door was Scarlet Sand.

Seeing Pleiades Liu, she was not very surprised, but her face looked a little tired. After seeing Pleiades Liu, she obviously felt a "sigh of relief".

However, he still said, "If you are acquainted, did you come right after the game?" Feisha said, letting Liu Subaru enter in.

I saw Erina was lying on the bed with an ice bag, and Yu Mei was there, and shortly after Liu Subaru came in, Xiaohui came with a bowl of vegetable porridge. From the cooking power contained in it, it can be seen that it is Xiaohui. I boil it myself...

"What happened to Erina?" Liu Subaru was also a little relieved.

Because he discovered that although Erina looked a little weak, when Liu Subaru came in, he opened his eyes and gave him a look, and then started doing it.

And the TV in the room is still on. As for the previous Feisha, they should have been watching their game broadcast not long ago!

Most importantly, there were no doctors and no medical equipment in the room.

In other words, although Erina is ill, it is not very serious, only on a "daily" level.

Well, so Alice is not here, this kind of "small illness", if Alice is beside, there will definitely be 100 ways to make Erina angrily...If it is serious, Alice can be quieter!

"It's just a small cold, it's not serious, don't worry." Erina said.

"Indeed, serious things are behind!" Ling'er then went on to make up for Erina's words.

"What's the matter?" Liu Subaru asked, looking at Erinai's Oppa.

While glaring at him, Erina also helped him cover the screen and said: "It's nothing, it seemed to catch a cold during the previous game..."

Of course, this is only for Feisha and the others. In fact, the answer to Liu Subaru was Ling'er who was invisible to others: "In the previous game, the team behind Erina was also the top ten team in the individual competition... …Do you remember?"

Liu Subaru nodded quietly.

He also had the impression that it seemed to be a team from India, and the leader was a disciple of the president of the Brahmin Food Appraiser...!

However, Liu Subaru did not take it too seriously. After all, at their current level, the "better than the master" had little effect, and it had reached the stage of "cultivation in the individual".

Liu Subaru is also confident in Erina...

And... Listening to Ling'er, Erina's "cold" is still related to those Asan?

Is it the legendary head down?Liu Subaru said in his heart.

At the same time, Ling'er seemed to see through his thoughts, open to his imagination, and made a speechless expression...

But in the end he explained: "I was careless before. I originally thought that as long as you don’t directly face the dragon chefs affected by the'spiritual kitchenware', you can’t think of... I was affected by the'curse' a little bit. In the same arena, although the final duel was not triggered, it also triggered the ordinary'dark cooking duel'. Fortunately, I reacted quickly..."

I don't know if it is an illusion. Linger seems to have a guilty conscience when she boasted that she "reacted quickly"?

As for why that Asanhui had been in contact with the "Zanlong Ke" for too long, Liu Subaru had no doubt.

Those "spiritual kitchen utensils" were originally auxiliary functions for Chef Dragon, such as Seiichiro, who had no interest in Yongling Knives. After Naginaki thistle got the spiritual treasure library, he couldn't understand why other dragon chefs were crazy. The same has so much interest in Yulong Lake!

Regardless of the "catastrophe" related words, although the kitchen utensils are magical to Chef Long, they are not necessarily attractive, so it is reasonable to give them to their own disciples...

Although the "spiritual kitchenware" is not something that ordinary people can use, it is not surprising that if there is a "dragon chef" who recognizes the master, it can perform some magical functions.

The team leader of the second group of Erina was obviously affected by the long-term contact with the "Zhanlong Kettle", and even in the individual competitions with their own kitchenware, they may still use the "Zhanlong Kettle", so they were also affected. When Linger possessed Erina, the effect of "Dark Cooking Showdown" was activated!

Although there are no "dragon chefs" who have really mastered the kitchen utensils, they can directly initiate the final duel with "human recipes" as a bet, but it is only a "dark cooking duel" and must be handled carefully...

"Is Erina lost to that San?" Liu Subaru asked suspiciously.

"En? Are you talking about the team behind us? Our score is higher than theirs... Before today, we were ranked second, but after today we were ranked fourth." Yu Mei replied from the side. .At the same time, I think Liu’s problem is a bit strange...

"Ahem, I thought Erina was under too much pressure after losing." Liu Subaru slapped haha ​​at random, while looking at Ling'er suspiciously, it caused Erina to roll his eyes.

Although he had heard from Ling'er before that the "dark cooking showdown" was not exclusive to the cataclysm period. When ancient civilizations still existed, the "dark cooking showdown" was a means to resolve disputes, or a ritual. But the bet can only be the chef himself...

And if the owner of "cursed kitchenware" initiates a "dark cooking showdown" against the owner of "Jade Dragon Pot", then the bet is the human recipe!

But... Since Erina didn't lose, why did she suddenly "catch a cold"?

"The opening of the'Dark Cooking Showdown' requires the'dark kitchenware'. Although the opponent did not possess the dragon pot at the time, as a spirit kitchenware, the dragon pot is the top dark kitchenware. Even if it is not held directly, Able to assist in opening the'Dark Cooking Showdown'...

When only one party holds dark kitchen utensils in the'Dark Cooking Showdown', an unfair showdown will be formed!Fortunately, I reacted quickly..."

Ling'er emphasized again... Fortunately, she reacted quickly.

Combined with what she said before, Liu Subaru suddenly had a bad feeling!

"Then how did you react?" Liu Subaru pressed close to Erina's ear and asked in a low voice.

The other three women in the room thought that Liu Subaru was whispering to Erina. Among them, Yu Mei couldn't help but glanced at Liu Subaru, and Feisha looked like a thief-proof, Xiaohui didn't think of it. What, blushing and bowing his head.

Seeing Liu Subaru’s direct question, Linger said, “Fortunately, I reacted quickly...I promptly lifted the seal of the'Phoenix-patterned Jade Dragon Pot', so that Erina also had the'dark kitchenware'. Pull back to the normal process... well, Erina won in the end!"

For a moment, Liu Subaru felt that the setting of this "dark kitchen utensil" was a bit like a thousand-year-old building blocks with a hedgehog head and a pendant with a jellyfish head...

He also heard Ling'er mentioned before, "Ling's kitchenware" is the top "dark kitchenware".

But immediately Liu Subaru's attention was put on another point!

Seeing Liu Subaru's expression of being unable to accept, Ling'er added: "If it weren't for the'phoenix-patterned jade dragon pot', Erina wouldn't be so easy to get the high scores it is now, especially when the opponent initiated the'darkness.' After the cooking showdown, Erina unexpectedly changed the original recipe!"

"Didn't you say that we must become the dragon chef before the seal of the corresponding'Jade Dragon Pot' can be unlocked?" Liu Subaru once again leaned into Erina's ear and said.

Erina finally couldn't help it, and asked others to go out first, lest Liu Subaru would continue to use this weird communication method.

Looking at Yu Mei's faintly resentful eyes, Liu Subaru knew that he had better go and talk to his little maid...

And Ling'er said at this time: "Of course I lied to you! It was just to inspire you before, how can you put all your expectations on your ability to quickly become a "dragon chef"? Actually, as a sealer, I am You can take the initiative to lift the seal and make it recognize the successor chosen by the Lord!

Even if there is no such incident, as long as someone becomes a dragon chef, I will release the seal of the "Phoenix Pattern Jade Dragon Pot" a moment ago... As for the sealing method of "His", I don't know much about it, but I think there should be something similar. Insurance measures.But don't let it go, after all, after the Jade Dragon Pot is released, the cruelest "dark cooking showdown" will begin!Without the realm of the dragon chef, you...it's hard to beat your opponent."

Linger's "he" obviously refers to the dragon chef "Liu Subaru Star".

"That is to say... Afterwards, when Erina encounters the situation with Chef Dragon, will the final dark showdown begin?" Liu Subaru felt that the news was a bit sudden.

"Theoretically speaking."

"What about'Phoenix Pattern Jade Dragon Pot'?"

"It has been bound to Erina's soul and can be summoned at any time." Ling'er said.

Liu Subaru no longer knew what expression he should make.

On the one hand, I know that even if someone becomes a dragon chef earlier than himself, it will not lead to irreversible consequences, because the "Jade Dragon Pot" has a high probability of lifting its seal and recognizing its master.

But on the other hand... if you have not become a "dragon chef", even if you have a Jade Dragon Pot, it is just like giving a red name to the trumpet who just came out of Novice Village, which is even more dangerous for Liu Subaru!

Pleiades Liu also tuned the TV channel at this time and found a rebroadcast of the highlights of the "All Blue" team match, and saw what happened in the Erina match.

Combined with what Linger said, Liu Subaru also understood the situation at that time.

It was when Erina and the others were in the middle of cooking, Asan's team entered the arena, and then the opponent's leader came over and said something to Erina and was pulled away by the staff on the field...

Then Erina discussed with the other players on the field. It can be seen that the "Seed team"’s cooking division has changed, giving Erina the opportunity to complete a dish alone. When submitting it, Ah San’s team leader also used Liu Subaru In the same way in the individual competition, he asked to taste Erina's cooking, and finally...he fainted!

That's why there are "rumors" that he was "stunned" by Erina's cooking.

In the eyes of ordinary people, it is the other party who took the initiative to provoke. All kinds of contempt for the young chef Erina who has a certain reputation in the cooking world, and after tasting her cooking, he thinks he is inferior and faints in shame!

In short, this Asan chef, who is also somewhat famous in the culinary world, is also bloody mildew. It didn’t matter if he originally lost, but now he loses, loses, and loses grace...

And others don’t know that if it weren’t for Linger’s hand-in-hand teaching Erina to control the use of the “dark kitchenware”, I’m afraid he would not have fainted so simple!

You must know that the highest standard of "Dark Cooking Showdown" is a gamble...

But of course Erina would not be so cruel. After all, the other party was also affected by the "curse." It is estimated that when the hapless person wakes up, he will also use his head to grab the ground and curse which way he has smoked.

As for Erina's "illness", it was just a backlash caused by Linger's release of the seal. Linger controlled it until after the game ended.

"Can the kitchen utensils play such a big role?" Liu Subaru sighed.

Although not at the scene, Liu Subaru still faintly noticed that Erina's cooking skills had improved to a certain extent!

"By the way, at that time... the'Phoenix-patterned Jade Dragon Pot' was not on the court? The'spiritual kitchenware' was still a talisman-type prop? It also worked in the backpack?" Liu Subaru suddenly asked in confusion.

Although he did not understand the words behind Liu Subaru, Ling'er also understood the general meaning and corrected: "It is true that Erina had shown its effect without the'Phoenix-patterned Jade Dragon Pot' at the time... But this is only The effect can only be achieved by a cook who has mastered the kitchen utensils to the extreme."

Pleiades Liu nodded clearly. As for why Erina's mastery of the "Phoenix-patterned Jade Dragon Pot" reached its peak, Liu Subaru did not ask...After all, the creator of "Spirit Kitchenware" is now Erina's cooking heart!

Count it like this... If you can play such a strong effect, it doesn't seem to be a loss to wake the Yulong pot in advance?Liu Subaru said in his heart.

Seeing Liu Subaru's expression, Ling'er poured cold water and said: "You are not my host, and even'he' didn't master the Jade Dragon Pot to the top. The average level of mastery does not increase you much. You are still honest. Really break through Dragon Chef!"

However, Liu Subaru apparently did not give up, instead squinted his eyes and looked at Ling'er with "profound meaning".

Ling'er was awkward by him and couldn't help but said, "What are you looking at?"

"By the way, you are also a'cooking heart' right now?" Liu Subaru's tone pointedly.

"You want..." Linger suddenly understood something.

But immediately he continued: "The idea is good, but you think too much! I am the world's first'dragon chef'. I have all the dishes in the world and the power that gives me in the dark is far from ordinary. Chef Dragon can be compared! Even if only the broken soul is turned into the heart of the cook, it is not something you can copy."

"How can I know if I don't try..."

That's right, Liu Subaru suddenly remembered that Ling'er is also the heart of the kitchen, why didn't he "copy" her as the heart of the mirror?

Linger is fundamentally different from any cooking heart, but Liu Subaru believes that even if she is only the first stage cooking heart, she is definitely the most powerful!

Ling'er did not stop Liu Subaru, but obviously he was not optimistic about him either, just waiting on the side...

Liu Maoxing's "fierce look" at Ling'er made Ling'er feel awkward. After all, not everyone can accept "placement" like Si Yingshi.

After a full three minutes, just when Linger was about to let him stop making trouble, I saw Liu Subaru's "heart", and a human-shaped light and shadow gradually appeared...

"Ah! It really succeeded...it doesn't seem right." With Ling'er's perspective, Erina also saw Liu Subaru's "Cooking Heart in the Mirror", but found that it was just a light and shadow after all.

I can barely see that it is a human form, and I can't see the other details. Not only is there no gender, but no one can argue that it is an ape.

Ling'er said: "Sure enough... my strength is too strong, and the ability coverage is too comprehensive. The cooking heart you'replicated' can only be as strong as your cooking heart, so it is useless! But you are actually really real. It can be replicated, your mental power is really not as strong...I see! It is because of the existence of the super five senses that your'sixth sense' has also been strengthened!"

The sixth sense is the sublimation of the five senses. You can imagine Liu Subaru's sixth sense, that is, the strength of the spirit.

However, if the effects of the "deep soup pot" cooking heart are two, each with 80 points, then the "linger" cooking heart has more than 100 abilities, each of which is 100 points, even with additional 120 points!

After Liu Subaru was copied, he was the most comprehensive and weakest chef with only 1 point for each item.

But Liu Maoxing smiled with satisfaction at this moment...

I saw Liu Subaru opened the curtains to let the sun shine on him, and said at the same time: "You wait! Watch me fill you up!"

At the same time, the door opened suddenly, and Alice with a weird expression walked in and said, "That... Am I disturbing you?"

"..."
