Volume 7: The Truth of the World Chapter 31: Open the [Truth of the World] module
After returning from Hell, Home No. 1 had two more fourth-level transcendents.
The strength increased dramatically!
Especially Shen Jin and Sun Can, both of them are extremely powerful!
Even though he had just been promoted, his strength was far superior to Hu Shou's.
Now, the title of China's number one master is about to be shifted. As for who is stronger between Shen Jin and Sun Can, it is not too clear. After all, Sun Can was holding back and fighting with his own strength, so it was reasonable for him to be overturned by Shen Jin later.
Otherwise, Sun Can’s fourth-level strength would be something Shen Jin would not be able to resist when he reached the third level.
The so-called slightest difference and a critical reversal are all acting!
Shen Jin also had to admire Sun Can's excellent acting skills.
Especially that “hehehe” laughter, it’s simply... not something that comes from a human!
Shen Jin strongly recommends that you don’t use this onomatopoeia in future novels. You will know how weird it is if you say it twice yourself…
Hu Shou was the happiest at this moment. With the help of two fourth-level extraordinary people, the zombie tyrant... was nothing to worry about!
When they were still at level three, they had already cooperated to take down a zombie tyrant. Now, they can directly crush him!
"When are we going to kill the zombie tyrant!"
"Don't worry, I need to take care of my own affairs and stabilize my realm a little bit!"
"Me too!"
Both Shen Jin and Sun Can said they couldn't move yet.
Hu Shou could also understand it. After all, he had just been promoted and had fought a battle. He needed to recover. He also took the opportunity to return to Tianluodiwang and inform other supernatural organizations about how to be promoted to the fourth level.
At this time, we cannot allow a bunch of fourth-level human transcendents to be occupied by alien races. As long as the situation can be stabilized, humans will definitely win this battle!
Shen Jin and Sun Can tacitly returned to their own places and began to check the system rewards.
The battle just now was so intense that I didn’t have time to read the system notifications carefully.
Shen Jin opened the system message. When he had just been promoted to the fourth level, he received a task reward.
【bite!】
[Congratulations on completing the "Strength Improvement" mission]
[Reward: World Line × 1]
[Open the "Truth of the World" module]
[The owner can spend world coins to ask questions about the system. The specific fee depends on the question. When the module is opened for the first time, the owner will be given a message for free.]
[Next, you will hear a message from ancient humans...]
[Hello, Chosen One. When you hear this message, it proves that the efforts of us cultivators have not been in vain. Humanity... still has a glimmer of hope! Although I don't know how many years have passed since my time, thousands of years? Or tens of thousands of years? But in these years, mankind must have experienced a long period of the Dharma Ending Age. The spiritual energy of our world... was stolen by a group of self-righteous people. They abandoned us! They betrayed humanity! Unfortunately, in this era, we can't compete with their power. Humanity is destined to go through this ordeal, but the Tao is ruthless and leaves a glimmer of hope. The Chosen One... is the hope of our human race. We have gathered the power of all cultivators to make three magic instruments and buried them in the void. When the time comes, they will choose three Chosen Ones to restore the light of our human race! Make good use of the power of the magic instruments to improve yourself. When you see this message, it proves that they... have also noticed you. Take care! ]
Shen Jin: “!!!”
Stunned!
All the news in the entire UC Shock Department in a year combined is not as shocking as Shen Jin's!
"Big news! Definitely big news!"
"A cultivator, a chosen one, a traitor to humanity, stolen spiritual energy, three magical instruments..."
Shen Jin felt that he had taken a big step closer to the truth of the system.
"Our system should be what they call a magic weapon. There are three of them. Yes, three! And there is also a chosen one... who is hiding!"
I wasn’t sure if there was a third system owner before, so there was nothing I could do if it was a two-out-of-three system.
Now, through the system's news, the existence of the third system is indirectly proved.
"That's strange... where is he hiding? Is he dead?"
Shen Jin thought it was unlikely. Since they were called the Chosen Ones, they must have good luck, just like he could always escape danger and Sun Can was rescued from a death situation. The Chosen Ones... were not easy to die.
"Logically speaking... the Chosen Ones should be passively attracted to each other. My system and Sun Can's system always send out similar tasks for two people. So where is the person with the sword? Is he right next to us?"
"But... who could it be then?"
Shen Jin still couldn't figure out why the owner of the sword-wielding system hadn't shown up yet.
"That's right! I can ask!"
Shen Jin opened the system module [The Truth of the World], which was very simple, with only three options: [Question] [Payment Required] [Answer]
When he asked the question he wanted to ask, the amount of [World Currency] he needed to spend would be displayed. He asked directly: "System, besides me and Sun Can, where is the third person who owns the system?"
After the question is entered, the system displays: [This question is beyond the system's capabilities and cannot be answered]
"You can't even answer the question without even showing the price..."
"It seems that there is a degree of confidentiality between systems!"
Shen Jin tried again to ask where the Chosen One who chose fire was, but the system still said it could not answer.
"This should be a protection for the system owner!"
Shen Jin could only think so.
Shen Jin changed the question, "System, who are the enemies that the ancient cultivators mentioned? Where are they now?"
[This question requires payment: 10 million world coins]
Shen Jin: “…”
"Bye! I'm sorry to ask!"
Isn’t this just messing with people’s mentality?
Home No. 1 has cleared so many zombies, and currently has only saved a little over 1 million [World Currencies]. Where would 10 million come from?
That would require killing 1 billion first-level zombies!
There aren’t so many in China anymore!
"System, what is the origin of zombies?"
[This question is beyond the system's capabilities and cannot be answered]
"You can't answer that?"
Shen Jin asked a few more questions about zombies, but the system said that it was beyond its capabilities. "The system seems... not to know zombies?"
Shen Jin came to a conclusion that the system left by the cultivators knew nothing about creatures like zombies. "That is to say... zombies are not ancient aliens, but new creatures!"
Shen Jin analyzed while chatting with the system.
"System, how to advance to the fourth-level intermediate level?"
[This question requires payment: 100,000 World Coins]
"Hmm? Sure!"
Shen Jin spent 100,000 [World Coins] and finally asked a question.
[Master is promoted to the fourth-level intermediate level. He needs to awaken the light of his soul and transform his spiritual power into real power. During this process, please be careful of the disturbance of the inner demon.]
"The light of the soul? What is that?"
Shen Jin spent 100,000 [World Coins] to buy a sentence, but he did get something useful after all, especially the last one, "The inner demon... will appear again, so be careful!"
Shen Jin decided to tell Hu Shou the news to prevent him from getting into trouble accidentally.
Shen Jin thought about it and decided not to care about anything else except the zombies and those potential enemies.
"Let Tianluodiwang think about two questions. They should be more professional!"
Shen Jin's own brain is definitely not as good as those of the 12 Wallfacers.
Turn your attention to another gain of yours, [World Line]!
After more than half a year, he finally got this thing again. "In the system, the only thing that needs to open a world line is the [Food Processing] module. Let's open it!"
[Cost: World Coin x 100]
[Cost: World Line × 1]
[Congratulations on opening the "Basic Food Craft" module]
[Unlock: cutting board, frying pan, grinder, pressure cooker, deep fryer, beverage maker, brewing barrel, stove, kitchen knife, purified water barrel, primary food recipe, primary beverage recipe, primary dessert recipe, etc.]
Shen Jin's system synthesis formula immediately unlocked a lot of food making methods.
"Fuck, that's a lot!"
Shen Jin's scalp tingled when he saw all kinds of synthesis formulas. Food processing was even more complicated than industrial processing!
Shen Jin frowned and continued to upgrade the [Food Processing] module. [Cost: World Coins x 1000]
[Congratulations on upgrading your "Primary Food Craft" module to "Intermediate Food Craft"]
[Unlock: Diamond Knife, Emerald Knife, Gold Knife, Intermediate Food Recipe, Intermediate Drink Recipe, Intermediate Dessert Recipe, etc.]
[Cost: World Coin x 5000]
[Congratulations on upgrading your "Intermediate Food Craft" module to "Advanced Food Craft"]
[Unlock: Dark Blue Multi-Function Tool, Dark Green Multi-Function Tool, Advanced Food Recipes, Advanced Drink Recipes, Advanced Dessert Recipes, etc.]
It cost 6000 [World Coins] to upgrade this module to the top level.
Shen Jin looked at the introduction of the module and roughly understood a little about how to play...
Use a variety of cooking tools, follow the recipes to make food, and then you can eat it...
"That's it? That's it?"
Shen Jin felt that if that was the case, this module would be less useful than the Michelin chefs he employed in his cafeteria.
"The system says... consuming these foods will have unexpected effects?"
"Is there a buff?"
Shen Jin made a [High-end Food Recipe], which included everything he could make, [Chocolate], [Rice], [Pancakes], [Dumplings], [Fried Dumplings], [Dried Tofu]...
There were more than 100 kinds of food, and Shen Jin was almost numb from looking at them!
“This is too much…”
Moreover, the food is becoming more and more complicated and the preparation is also more complicated, such as the advanced [Chopped Pepper Fish Head Rice], [Beef Stir-fried Spaghetti], etc. "Let's make a bowl of [rice] first!"
Shen Jin wanted to see what was different about the meals cooked by the system, so he made a [pressure cooker] and a [purified water bucket]. Shen Jin saw a faint glow of energy on the [purified water bucket]. Shen Jin took some rice and put it in, then filled the [purified water bucket] with water, put it in the [pressure cooker], added fuel [coal], and started cooking!
“Gugugugu~!”
After 15 seconds, the rice was cooked.
"Hmm? So fast! Such delicious rice!"
Shen Jin took out a big pot of rice and when he opened it, the rice smelled delicious.
After scooping out a small bowl and swallowing it in a few gulps, Shen Jin felt that he had never eaten such delicious rice in his life!
It smells so good that he doesn’t even need to eat any vegetables and can just eat a pot of rice!
"It's really worthy of the [Rice] in the recipe, there's something special about it..."
Even if this kind of meal didn't have any other effects, Shen Jin felt it was worth it as his appetite was satisfied.
The next second, Shen Jin felt a warm current in his stomach, and the warm breath instantly spread throughout his body, as if he was in a stove. "Huh? Is this the special effect that the system mentioned?"
Shen Jin can see his own status on the system interface.
【Fever: lasts for 2 hours】
Shen Jin ate another small bowl of [rice], [Fever: lasted 4 hours]
Can also be stacked!
"It's interesting... I don't need it now, but if I can eat hot [rice] outside, it can also keep my body warm, which is a good thing!"
This is a basic food after all, so it would be nice to have a small buff.
Shen Jin made another more complicated food [dumplings]. He needed to first put the meat and vegetables on the [cutting board] to make the [dumpling filling], and then use [flour] and [purified water] to make the [dough skin]. After the two are combined, they become [dumplings]. Put them in the [pot] for 15 seconds and you can start eating. The appearance is crystal clear, the thickness is even, and it looks great!
Shen Jin was so hungry just by looking at it that he ate a dumpling. "Oh! Delicious!"
Extremely delicious dumplings! He almost swallowed his tongue. Shen Jin had never eaten such delicious dumplings in his life. The aroma of all the ingredients was fully displayed!
Shen Jin couldn't wait to eat a few more dumplings until he felt a slight tingling sensation in his body. The hidden injuries left by the battle with Sun Can in hell began to recover at an accelerated pace.
【Healing: Lasts 1 hour】
"It turns out to be a slow healing buff, quite useful!"
In the wild, after a fight, you can just eat a bowl of dumplings and take a nap to recover. How cool!
"Huh? This effect... also works on me, that's pretty amazing!"
Shen Jin is already at the fourth level, and his recovery ability is amazing. A bowl of dumplings can actually make him feel a significant increase in his recovery speed, which shows that the effect is indeed good.
Shen Jin wrapped the remaining dumplings and put them into his [Quantum Tool Box]. From now on, he would eat dumplings instead of Senzu beans.
In addition to these, there are also many foods, drinks, and desserts that increase various attributes.
Shen Jin stopped studying them one by one and would do it when he had time later. Finally, he looked at the two most advanced tools in the entire [Food Crafting] module, the [Dark Blue Multi-Function Tool] and the [Dark Green Multi-Function Tool]. System introduction: Possessing certain magical powers.
"These two... should be good things. What's the difference between magic power and supernatural powers?"
However, the production formulas of these two tools are extremely complex and require a lot of gourmet synthesis.
It takes too much time, so Shen Jin decided to solve the problem of the zombie tyrant first and then come back to deal with these things.
"Oh, right, with the [Food Craft] module, then... a food production line can be established. In the future, we won't need so many people to cook every day..."
Then, he thought that it would definitely impact the booming catering industry in No. 1 Home.
After all, the food made by the system is so delicious. If it can be mass-produced, the survivors will definitely come to eat this food. It will have a huge impact on the current economy, so we have to be cautious.
Then don’t release it outside for now, and only give it to your own troops.
After leaving his workshop, Sun Can was waiting outside. They both asked at the same time: "What did your system reward you for?"
