Chapter 2459: Interesting Chap

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Angelina and Iman returned to the arena after some hesitation in their purchases. They saw Mag hitting a piece of beef crazily when they entered the arena and bothy out them had shocked expressions on their faces.

A scene that was supposed to be ridiculous and violent was made meaningful and beautiful by Mag.

The iron rods that were tens of kilograms heavy, looked like two light wooden rods in Mag’s hands. He swung them at a shocking speed. The sounds that resembled drum beats were as frequent as raindrops. Only the faint shadows of the iron rods could be seen. They were so fast that the audience’s eyes couldn’t catch up.

Mag’s expression remained as calm as ever, as though he was doing a very simple and ordinary matter.

Iman’s work bench was still next to Mag’s. He mumbled inwardly as he placed the ingredients he bought onto his work bench, “What’s he doing? Smashing the beef?”

!!

He eventually chose a 50 centimeter-long baby rainbow fish. He spent 90,000 coins, almost spending all his funds on it.

If it was an adult rainbow fish, 100,000 coins wouldn’t be enough.

Tucker Restaurant was the most famous for its all-fish banquet. As Julian’s best disciple, he also had great culinary skills in cooking fish.

He deliberately held himself back in the previous rounds. The quarterfinal yesterday was just a trial when he made the steamed yellow dragon fish. He would show them his real skills today.

He deliberately checked on Hades’ PK value when he woke up in the morning. It had already reached 7 points after conversion, which was just 2 points away from him.

He had to show all he had today, otherwise he would have to leave this competition if Mag got another 95 points again.

Padas had also spent all 100,000 copper coins. He chose the golden goat shank. This 6 tier magic beast was uncommon. Its texture was delicate, so it was rather popular.

Angelina only spent half of her budget. She spent over 40,000 coins, but she got a whole cartful of ingredients. She had almost three times the amount of the other three contestants combined.

The judges commented on the three contestants’ ingredient choices.

30 minutes had already passed by now, so the contestants immediately entered the cooking stage.

Mag hit the meat repeatedly and boringly, as though he was a meat-hitting machine with no emotions.

“How many times has he hit the beef by now?”

“10,932 times. He should have hit another 12 more times by the time I sent this bullet chat message.”

“What is he trying to do? Smash the beef into minced beef? He could have done that with a meat grinder within three seconds?”

“Perhaps Hades’ cooking idea is to turn the simple cooking processes into difficult ones.”

The audience slowly became numb. They even began to count the number of times Mag had hit the beef.

Mag was paying attention to the pork rind’s condition in the pot during the hitting process. He immediately turned off the fire when the soup became white and thick.

After Mag poured the thick pork rind soup into a shallow mold, he scooped out the white water prawns from the water tank at the side. As he waved his knife, white water prawn after white water prawn that were de shelled and deveined, began to appear on the chopping block. After Mag chopped the prawns into a smooth prawn paste, he stirred them into the thick soup and chucked them into the freezer to cool down rapidly.

Yes. Mag was going to make the famous “Explosive Pissing Beef Balls1“!

This famous snack was also one of Mag’s favorite dishes in his previous life. As for why he chose it to be his semifinal’s dish, it was because of its gimmicky and showy cooking process.

Mag got the recipe from the system but he hadn’t gone into the test field for the God of Cookery to practise it yet.

However, going through all the recent training and grasping all the masters’ experience and recipes, Mag was still rather sure about doing it successfully on his first try.

The terms “explosive” and “beef balls” were crucial to “Explosive Pissing Beef Balls”. The white water prawns’ quality was better than the mantis shrimps’, and hitting the beef manually had instilled a soul into it when compared to mincing it with a blender. He was using his experience as a chef to make sure that the beef was hit to the perfect condition.

Mag’s iron rods were specially made. Each of them weighed about 40kg.

A 3.5kg iron rod was simply too light to him and it would affect his performance.

The beef turned into minced beef gradually under the rods, but Mag didn’t seem like he was going to stop soon.

The beef bone broth was boiling in the big pot at the side. A big bovine bone was ordinary, so the aroma that was slowly wafting out was not extraordinary.

And then looking at Iman who was processing the rainbow fish at the side. The colorful rainbow fish was already processed and the various side ingredients were cut with all kinds of fancy cutting skills. They looked extremely pretty and attracted many audience members’ attention.

Of course, everyone was looking forward to Angelina, this maiden who was called the “The Kitchen’s Magician”. She was processing the ingredients that were spread all over her work bench.

Surprisingly, there was no meat in her ingredients. They were vegetables.

“They are all vegetables? What kind of surprise would Angelina bring us today? I’m so curious,” David said with surprise. Obviously, the judges only discovered this after she displayed all her ingredients on the cooking bench.

Cooking a meat dish wasn’t a must on the Top Chef Competition, but compared to a vegetarian dish,which was lighter in taste and more restrictive, the meat dish had a higher upper limit.

Some contestants had made vegetarian dishes in the show before, and their scores were less than satisfactory.

Today was the crucial semifinal, which would decide the final’s name list. Yet, Angelina had decided to make a vegetarian dish, which was indeed unexpected.

Iman and Padas also looked towards Angelina when they heard the comments. A hint of joy flashed across their eyes.

Angelina was, with any doubts, the most competitive contestant in the competition now. Be it her full marks PK value, or her blue-sky thinking, all the other contestants could hardly match up to her. They didn’t expect her to do such a silly thing like cooking a vegetarian dish today. Did she forget to get her main ingredient?

“Cooking a vegetarian dish? Interesting.” Mag raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn’t think there were any issues with Angelina choosing to make a vegetarian dish.

If the “Steamed Chinese Cabbage in Supreme Soup”1 could make it into the state dinner’s menu, why couldn’t a vegetarian dish do the same as well?

Only the chef that did the cooking mattered.

The National Defense’s building, the Marshal’s office.

Ferdinand was watching the live-stream on the screen with a smile on his face.

Judging from Xi’s feedback in the past two days, this chap was adapting to life in the Underground City very well. He could even think of a solution to increase his account’s traffic within a short time period. He soon gained Nancy’s approval and received the McCarthy Family’s access card.

“Interesting chap. I want to see what kind of changes you can bring to Underground City.” Ferdinand closed his live-stream interface and connected to his secretary’s phone.

“Marshal, the president sent us a letter asking about your opinion on the Dixon Family’s money laundering issue.”
