The Counterfeit Little Master of the Halberd

"...Four! The leader of the'Germinate Team', Chef Liu Subaru, got the number four, while the previous'Dragon Chef League Team' got the number three, which means that the number of semifinals has been decided!"

In the lottery venue, the emcee immediately announced the number drawn by Liu Subaru...

Because Liu Subaru drew the number four, there is no need to draw the “Seed team” and the “American Development Council”. It doesn’t make sense to separate who is number one and who is number two.

"Then according to the rules, next Saturday, there will be a match between the'Seed Team' and the'America Development Council Representative Team', and on Sunday, a match between the'Germinate Team' and the'Dragon Chef League Representative Team' will be held! At the same time today, the personal questions of the two competitions will be announced next..."

Because the whole process was live broadcast, the emcee deliberately paused to stretch the popularity, and I don’t know if the TV station will enter the advertisement at this time!

"In the first day of the competition, the topics of the three individual matches were'Future','Now', and'Past'..."

Below Liu Subaru Xing couldn't help but mumble: "Past, present, future...this topic is too erratic, right?"

Of course, no matter how erratic it is, it has nothing to do with him, this is the problem of the team of Erina et al. and Nagiri Thistle.

"On the second day of the game, the topics of the three individual matches were'Sun','Moon' and'Stars'!" The emcee continued.

"Eh? The sun? The happiness came a bit suddenly..." Liu Maoxing muttered, and saw Erina next to him staring at him, as if to say: Listen to me, draw the number four, right?

Indeed, although the topic of "sun, moon, and star" as a cooking topic is a bit too vague, it is absolutely correct to directly choose "sun" as the topic of his appearance with Liu Subaru's cooking heart!

No wonder Erina lamented Liu Subaru's good luck...

After the lottery ceremony, the players of each team also left the venue, but just as Liu Subaru and Erina were about to leave, Nakiri Thistle appeared to block the two teams of the far moon...To be precise, it blocked Erina. !

"My lovely daughter, I really can't think of it! You actually chose me as your opponent because you miss your father?" Naginari Thistle's voice looked evil, making the others uncomfortable.

However, Liu Subaru and Erina did not feel surprised. If Lin Yi or Seiichiro from the Dragon Chef Alliance were here, I am afraid that the situation would be out of control now!

With the intensification of the "curse" effect, Liu Subaru and Erina also unblocked the "Jade Dragon Pot". The Dragon Chef, who was affected by the curse, became more and more subconsciously hostile to the two.

Xie Yunlong had previously discussed the effects of "curse" with Liu Subaru according to his own feelings...

The so-called "out of control" refers to the fact that under the guidance of the "curse", when Chef Dragon is too hostile to Liu Subaru or Erinai, so that Chef Dragon himself has to question his own consciousness, the "curse" will be further intensified. Time will almost completely devour the consciousness of Chef Dragon!

For example, the previous bosses of Michelin and Brahmin had similar situations when they faced Liu Subaru and Erina.

On the other hand, Xie Yunlong temporarily suppressed the effect of the "curse" by virtue of the effect of "consoling the soul".

Later, Xie Yunlong also explained to Liu Maoxing that at that time, Xie Yunlong was not only "inhibiting", but also using the method of "dispatch"!

For example, when the "curse" guides him to hostile Liu Subaru, he is really subjectively challenging Liu Subaru, then the impact of the "curse" on him will be reduced...because the "guidance" is very smooth, so there is no need to corrode Its will.

For the same reason, Nagachi thistle actually needs to worry the least, because he is hostile to Liu Subaru and Erina!

If you change to Seiichiro or Lin Yi, when you are so close to the two, I am afraid that you will already have a "seizure".

In fact, there was a difference in the venue before, but with Xie Yunlong, he had already taken advantage of the situation to lead Lin Yi and Seiichiro away...

But now Naginari Thistle can control the desire to fight against Liu Subaru or Erina immediately, because he himself is hostile to the two, so the "curse" has little influence on his personal consciousness, but it sounds like it sounds now. Somewhat weird.

"It's not a'choice', it's just a coincidence. The lottery is arranged by your'American Development Association', don't you trust it?" Erina said pretendingly.

Only then will the idiot admit that the result of the lottery was "chosen" by himself!

"Hehe, whatever you want to say... Do you want to try it out, how to face me? Then I suggest you choose the "past" one! Thinking of being with my dad, I taste real dishes every day instead of Time delay the happy time on the feed!" said Naginaki thistle.

Without waiting for Erina's answer, he turned and left.

"Erina, there is no need to face him in the individual match." Liu Subaru said in a low voice beside him.

"No, even if he doesn't come to me, I will choose'past'!" Erina said.

"..."

Liu Subaru did not persuade anything, he also understood what Erina meant.

Now Erina’s biggest obstacle is the psychological shadow of her childhood. It was precisely in order to overcome this shadow that Erina chose to confront her father Naginari Thistle once, and as the most "perfect" topic of this battle, in fact, It's "the past"!

It's not that the topic of "the past" is beneficial to Erina, but that using the topic of "past" to confront Naginari thistle once can make Erina out of the previous shadow... but the premise is to "win".

But purely considering the outcome, Liu Subaru thinks that this topic is not good for Erina, and he was overwhelmed by Naginaki thistle in terms of momentum, which is equivalent to Erina's teamwork against the "past self" and "Naginaki thistle" at the same time...

But it is clear that Erina has made up his mind.

Once another "Pleiades Liu" said to Pleiades Liu that he already has a dragon chef and all the conditions other than culinary skills, but now Erina, the only condition that he lacks in addition to culinary skills is his The shadow of time has not been completely cleared...

Therefore, Liu Subaru has no reason to persuade her.

In the following week, the only thing Liu Subaru can do is to prepare the recipes he will use in the individual competition.

On the other side, Xie Yunlong has also notified Liu Subaru that the order of the Dragon Chef Alliance will be played by Lin Yi in the "Sun" game.

This is not surprising to Liu Subaru. After all, Lin Yi and Seiichiro are normal when facing Xie Yunlong. As long as Xie Yunlong is free to make sure that he chooses "moon" or "star", there will be one of the other two. Choose "Day", and for Liu Subaru, it makes no difference who goes first...

However, what Xie Yunlong had said to Liu Subaru, about the cooking characteristics of Lin Yi and Seiichiro, flashed in Liu Subaru's mind at this time.

The cooking characteristics of the two can be said to be completely opposite...

Liu Subaru can also guess some of Seiichiro's cooking characteristics before.

After leaving Totsuki 20 years ago, Seiichiro traveled around the world as a wandering chef. When he was in the academy, Seiichiro was good at mixing and matching the styles of the world’s major cuisines. Great cuisine...No, it should be said that in Seiichiro's mind, there is no "cuisine" concept!

All the cooking skills in the world are just a kind of "skills" in his opinion. When cooking, he doesn't even have the concept of "skills" in his mind. He just thinks about how to make cooking more perfect.

Others lamented that Seiichiro perfectly combined the skills of various cuisines. In fact, Seiichiro never thought of "combining" in his heart. He just presented his will to the diners by means that he felt appropriate.

In contrast, Lin Yi's cooking style is completely different from his... Lin Yi's current cooking style is generally biased towards traditional Chinese cuisine!

It is not that Lin Yi is self-proclaimed. Unlike the persistence of the Liu family, although Lin Yi was a clear Chinese cuisine chef at the beginning, he went to other two major cooking organizations to study after he was a teenager and laid a foundation in culinary skills. Before he was forty years old, he spent much more time in other culinary civilization circles than the Chinese culinary civilization circle that he had laid the foundation in the beginning.

Once Lin Yi was once a famous chef who was a cross-cuisine chef who had no tendency to cook, but after forty years old, Lin Yi suddenly began to pursue the ultimate and gradually returned to the starting point...

It was not that Lin Yi had forgotten the knowledge of other cuisines he had learned before, but used them as an important supplement to fill in his original "Chinese cuisine" that he was good at.

It is said that after Lin Yi’s cooking skills had been born in the blue and surpassed his mentor, the last head of the Lan family, his mentor gave Lin Yi the precepts left by his ancestors as a gift to him.

Different from the few prophecies left by Pleiades Liu, Lan Feihong only left two admonitions. The first is the rules that the Lan family and the cooks taught by the Lan family must abide by.

And according to Lan Feihong, only by doing this well can you become a "dragon chef", and regardless of whether you can reach the peak, this criterion must also be recorded in the personal criterion of the chef who accepts his inheritance...

That is... "Cooking can't just be delicious, it must bring people happiness."

This was the first day that Lin Yi was apprentice to learn art, and he was told by his mentor that he must keep it in mind.

Another admonishment is to tell him whether he is a descendant or other craftsman, when you are in a bottleneck, you can come up with a sentence for reference... "When you are at a loss, May wish to recall the origin of yourself as a chef."

A very golden word. Generally speaking, this kind of word that can be said to anyone by replacing the word "chef" with something else can be collectively referred to as "nonsense".

However, it is this admonition that most people think is "nonsense", and after decades, it has become the key to Lin Yi breaking through the dragon chef!

I don't know if it is a "coincidence", or only people with high understanding can appreciate the profound meaning from this nonsense.

Both Lin Yi and Seiichiro have reached the dragon rank, and they have also proved that there are two ways, from divergence to more divergence, from divergence to unity, the road is not divided up and down, and both can reach the top...

It's just that there are obvious differences between the two in terms of cooking characteristics!

"By the way, I've seen it before. Master Lin Yi's cooking heart looks like a tree..." Liu Subaru said to himself.

That's right, because the chef's heart of cooking has reached the strongest state, so it is exposed.

Although in order to prevent the "curse" from worsening, Pleiades Liu seldom looks at other dragon chefs so as not to meet the eyes, but Lin Yi always looks like he is under the canopy of trees. It is difficult for Pleiades Liu to not see!

However, from the appearance of Chu Xin before, Liu Subaru did not understand what the role of Chu Xin was, but after hearing Yun Long's words, Liu Subaru had some guesses.

This tree-shaped cooking heart is probably another kind of special function cooking heart. It is Lin Yi's symbol of supplying Chinese cuisine with the knowledge and skills of all other cuisines as "nutrients"!

It is speculated that the effect should be "Return to Yuan", "Return to One" and so on...

"Cooking mind is similar to the ability to integrate all of his skills into one. The cuisine is obviously inclined to Chinese cuisine. With the topic of the sun, how would he choose?"

"By the way, there is the Garuda knife... The Garuda knife, which symbolizes the principles of all poultry food materials. If it defeats the jade dragon pot, humans will gradually begin to reject all poultry ingredients and become allergic to poultry... Within two years, Poultry will disappear from human diets!"

"The fully functioning'Galouluo' has the effect of purifying the peculiar smell of poultry ingredients and purifying game. It is most likely that poultry ingredients should be used at that time..." Liu Maoxing muttered.

Because from the previous few times, Xie Yunlong may not be able to see the dishes prepared by the other two.

And Liu Subaru did not mean to inquire!

"Dark cuisine duel" also has its own rules. It is said that it is the will of all ingredients. In maintaining the "dark cuisine duel" rules, those who violate it will be abandoned by the ingredients.

Knowing the opponent's strength in advance, and inquiring about who the opponent is, has nothing to do with the "dark cooking showdown" itself, at best it violates the "All? Blue" regulations.

However, if the other party's recipe is detected in advance, it will be counted as a violation, Liu Subaru is not sure...

On the one hand, Pleiades Liu guessed the cooking style he would appear in the competition from Lin Yi's cooking characteristics, and on the other hand, he also designed his own recipes.

Cooking duel is different from direct confrontation. No matter how much you know about your opponent, there is still only one way to win, and that is "more delicious"!

However, Liu Maoxing didn't care about using his knowledge of Lin Yi... Money can't be spent for nothing, right?

Although I don’t know Lin Yi’s recipe, I can guess roughly. Therefore, Liu Subaru’s main ingredient is also a kind of poultry...
