New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 18 Teacher Ohno
Half an hour later, or maybe an hour later.

In front of the entrance to the underground maze, there was a large group of people gathered and making a lot of noise. Lei Ye and Buyadi sat on a rock and watched from afar, watching those people moving around busily.

Lei Ye silently took out a loudspeaker from his storage bag and put it on his ears.

"Lord Alder, we have confirmed that a terrifying explosion occurred on the first floor of the underground maze. Such a force is definitely not something that can be created by humans. The underground maze has indeed experienced considerable abnormalities. My suggestion is to temporarily close the entrance to the underground maze until the cause of the incident is fully investigated."

"I agree. The monsters in the underground labyrinth will never come to the surface and cause no harm to the city. As the news of the disastrous defeat of the Scorched Earth spread throughout Hillius, more and more explorers are leaving the city, and the commissions on the commission board are piling up. If the underground labyrinth is closed, the explorers should be more active in defeating the monsters that are rampant around the city."

".Oh, I understand."

Lei Ye took off the loudspeaker and silently gripped his toes, watching the group of guys who should be guild staff begin to seal the entrance to the underground maze.

The explorers watching around were cursing. The underground maze was Hillius's pillar industry, and most of the explorers who came here from other places came for this. Now that this thing was closed, it was equivalent to directly cutting off the largest source of income.

The commissions on the guild commission board are not very efficient in terms of making money. If you want to maximize your money and fame in one go, the underground maze is your only option.

So it is understandable that they are angry with Lei Ye. Not long ago, he was still thinking about relying on slaves and underground mazes to live a life of idleness and waiting for death in a big house. As long as you find the right method, it is indeed very convenient to make money from the underground maze.

"Hello, how are you feeling? Are you hurt?"

The pastor lady arranged by the guild came over with a drink.

Lei Ye took the drink and shook his head silently.

"You were on the first floor at the time. You were lucky not to be injured. We would like to apologize on behalf of the guild for the shock you received. We will handle the matter here as soon as possible."

The pastor lady didn't know how close Lei Ye was to the explosion. She just smiled, bowed, and left when she saw that Lei Ye was indeed not injured and even his clothes were clean.

Watching her walk away towards another explorer, Buyadi nodded.

"The service attitude of the staff here is quite good. Let me tell you, we Scorched Earth people have always had some prejudice against Hillius. Many famous weirdos in history were born on this land, but now it seems that this place still has its merits."

Lei Ye didn't answer but stared at Alder.

It was a tall, mature woman wearing a red shawl.

The current guild president is not the same one who did not allow him to do business a few years ago. Lei Ye does not know much about the Hillius Guild, but when he thought about how it was this person who arranged for him to receive compensation and upgrade his guild card yesterday, he silently approved of her.

"Okay, I've decided to stay in Hillius for a few more days! Let's go to the guild and I want to register as an explorer!" Buyadi suddenly announced.

Lei Ye turned his head and glanced at the woman who had just created such a mess.

The Demon King is going to register as an explorer. Is this true? Is it necessary to be so competitive?
Theoretically, it is possible. If the explorer is willing, he can choose not to register his race when registering. This was originally intended to allow those succubus ladies who do not want to do that kind of work to support themselves in another way, but it also makes it convenient for all kinds of people to register as explorers.

Of course, even Buyadi has to start as a G-class explorer.

Therefore, we may see a scene where the Demon King of G-level explorers accepts commissions to conquer goblins. That is far beyond the level of playing the pig and eating the tiger, and can be called a dimensionality reduction attack.

But there might be a scene where someone is looked down upon and then Buyadi twists her mouth to show off and slaps herself in the face?

Don't do that. If Bu Yadi gets angry, she will drop a nuclear bomb.

It is better to discourage as much as possible.

"One, two, three, five people, we can just form a team. So, you can be the captain. After all, as an explorer, you are our senior. You can command us, and you can decide the name of the team. Okay, senior~" Buyadi shook Lei Ye's arm.

"Okay, I decided to call us the Yuzu Squad." Lei Ye answered immediately.

There's really nothing I can do about her, so I'll just play with her for a while.

Speaking of which, I am now a B-level explorer. Although this level is not particularly high, as the captain of a team, I already have the authority to accept pretty good missions. Looking at the people around me, it would be quite fun to go on an adventure with them.

——Explorer Guild——

The light in the room was a little dim.

People sitting together drinking could be seen everywhere, with unloaded armor and weapons placed next to their seats, and the air was filled with the smell of food and drink.

In the first round, Lei Ye took Buyadi to complete the formalities in a hurry and left without paying much attention to the things in the guild. Now, he has to step into this unfamiliar place again as an explorer, and his mood is inexplicably complicated.

The surrounding attention immediately gathered here, and even without a loudspeaker, Lei Ye could hear those people staring at this side and whispering to each other.

Soon, Lei Ye understood why the few people were causing the commotion.

"Although this is a city of explorers full of newcomers, there are still a few capable fighters. I'm itching to fight. I wonder if there is an arena in Hillius. I want to see a river of blood!"

"Woi~ Devil baby, look, they are eating such a big piece of barbecue, so cool - Gratini wants to eat that!"

"Ah! Vision, vision."

"."

The answer is the beauty of the demon girls around him. In the first round, Lei Ye was only accompanied by Buyadi, who was still wearing old clothes discarded from Loya. At this moment, Buyadi was in her prime, and as soon as she appeared, she stunned all the female explorers in the guild.

There is no need to say much about the other three, they are all rare beauties.

So Lei Ye realized from those jealous gazes that he was probably being regarded as a scumbag with a harem.

Haha, don’t be jealous. You’ll be obedient if I give you a nuclear explosion.

Lei Ye went straight to the counter and handled his own business first.

"Hello, I want to sell my house, here is my title deed."

Sell ​​whatever you can here. It's unlikely that they will come back anyway. Lei Ye needs some start-up capital to develop new business with Grady in Scorched Earth.

Although he had already gotten the answer in his heart, Lei Ye now once again realized the fact that he had completely placed his future plans on Scorched Earth.

In fact, I have been a scorched earth person for a long time.

"Okay, eh?" The lady at the counter did it quickly. After picking up the ID, she was stunned for a moment. She lowered her head and raised it again, looking at the ID and Lei Ye alternately. "Mr. Lei Ye? You don't look like that?? Oh, sorry. I said something wrong. Welcome back."

She paused, "It just so happens that there is a client here who is looking to buy the house urgently, and the price he offers is also very suitable. If you are interested, the guild is willing to help you make connections or handle the matter on your behalf. However, because it is an expedited matter, you need to move out of the house as soon as possible after the transaction is successful. What do you think?"

strangeness.

Why is no one rushing to buy a house in the first week?

"Please help me with it. If the price he offers is suitable, I will take his price. Also, please give me one newspaper for every day of this month, and a deluxe barbecue. Thank you."

"Ok."

While the lady at the counter continued to operate, Lei Ye took the newspaper and flipped through it.

Then froze.

Disappeared.

The contents of the registration in the newspapers three days ago were exactly the same.

But in the following content, several headlines disappeared.

Lei Ye remembered that there was a big news, saying that there was some supreme succubus sister on Round Corner Street.

But now there are only boring advertisements in that newspaper.

The headlines of the more recent issue are still there, but the content has changed.

"War alert! War alert! All the brave warriors were killed in the scorched earth. The decapitation operation failed miserably. Can Hillius withstand the wrath of the most evil demon king?"

Lei Ye handed the newspaper to Buyadi.

As soon as she saw the headline, Buyadi became furious and slammed it on the table.

"Which idiot wrote this!?" Lei Yexin thought that the author did not write it randomly. Hillius had indeed begun to bear the wrath of the Demon King, not because of any decapitation operation, but because it could not be opened from this side.

"Okay, your formalities have been completed. Here are your forty large gold coins. Please keep them."

"So many? So fast?!"

"Because it was an expedited matter, the client offered a higher amount and gave the guild the authority to purchase the property. Your house met the other party's requirements, so the handover process was so smooth."

".OK."

No complaints about this amount.

"Then please help me with the registration procedures for the explorers. The four people behind me and the other five of us will form a team. The Yuzu team will register. Thank you."

"Jade? Okay I get it."

The registration procedure for explorers was much simpler than I remembered, and it didn't take too much time to get other people's guild cards processed.

Because we have just registered, all of them are G-level, which is equivalent to rookies just starting out.

Seeing Buyadi happily hanging the small sign on her chest, Lei Ye felt really uncomfortable.

This would be reasonable if it were a cup size.

The barbecue was delivered, and Lei Ye asked a few people to go to the dining table to eat first, and then discuss what to do next.

Lasda was silently preparing to stand behind him, but Lei Ye pulled her and asked her to sit down next to him. Buyadi sat casually on the other side.

Only one portion of barbecue was ordered and placed in front of Galatini.

She took a look at it, and immediately started to take it apart with a smile, wanting to give a piece to Lei Ye who was sitting opposite her.

But Lei Ye waved his hand, indicating that she didn't need it.

Then he took out four luxurious dragon meat banquets and exquisite silver knives and forks from his storage bag, and gave one to each person except Galatini. He even set out elegant candles, with the candlelight swaying slightly on the table.

[Luxury Dragon Meat Feast]: All attributes are increased by an additional 200%, lasting for five hours.

This is the most powerful amplifying food that Lei Ye prepared for his teammates before the final battle, and it is also the most delicious top-grade food he can make at present.

Buyadi's eyes lit up, Lesta gave a sinister smile, and Miss Assassin Yuna calmly took up the knife and fork first.

Only Galatini frowned, realizing that things were not that simple.

She swallowed, returning her gaze to the large piece of meat in front of her, and leaned over to take a big bite.

"Ugh, ugh."

Then he showed a sad expression (>.<).

Le, you've been fooled.

In fact, the culinary skills of the Explorers Guild are already quite good in this world, at least not much different from those of the Scorched Earth. But the problem is that yesterday, Galatini ate the full banquet that she prepared with all her heart, so how could she be satisfied with this barbecue now?
"Okay, I declare the Yuzu Squad officially established. Next, we will hold the first Yuzu Squad strategic meeting." Lei Ye casually pulled the barbecue in front of Galatini over and pushed the luxurious dragon meat banquet in front of him over. "Our next task is to upgrade the team level to E level in the shortest time possible. Does anyone have any objections?"

"I have it!" Buyadi raised her hand. "What E level? What a joke. If we tell others about it, they will think we can't even get promoted. I want to be the best in the world!"

"Objection!" Lei Ye put her hand down. "I know you are strong, but the team cannot upgrade levels continuously. The higher the level, the longer the review time. You don't plan to live in Hillius for a few years, right? Then don't think about upgrading to the top level all at once. There is no need for that."

"Well, that's right. Master, I'm not very good at fighting." Lestar raised her hand timidly, imitating Buyadi's posture.

"Don't worry about this kind of thing. Although I was recently promoted to B-level, the newly established team still has to start from G-level. The most team missions we can accept are to fight goblins or something like that. They are opponents you can easily deal with. There is no need to worry at all."

"Okay, okay."

Succubi are indeed a race that is not good at fighting, but they are definitely stronger and more powerful than goblins. In fact, there are also some succubus explorers who are actively active in Hillius.

However, it is only possible to easily kill a goblin alone. If there are no good teammates, the probability of the succubi triggering the defeat CG is indeed very high.

Of course, with Buyadi around, there was absolutely no way the Yuzu Squad would fail no matter what.

Look at Miss Yuna.

From the beginning, she had been dissecting the luxurious piece of dragon meat in front of her at an increasingly faster pace, concentrating on wielding the knife and fork with graceful movements.

Perhaps due to some excellent qualities of an assassin, Lei Ye just looked over and the other party immediately noticed it, and gave him an expressionless look in response, showing an attitude of "I have no objection".

woman!

Okay, then this is passed unanimously.

"Then it's confirmed now. During our time in Hillius, our goal is to become an E-class explorer team!" Lei Ye took out a small notebook and wrote a few words on it. "The next topic is about how we act in Hillius."

"First of all, I think we need to keep a low profile and try not to cause too much trouble." Lei Ye glanced at Buyadi who was sitting on his right.

Yes, I'm talking about you, Buyadi.

It's not that I want you to be submissive, but throwing a nuclear bomb just because you are angry is really... Thinking back to the power of that magic, if it was released here in the center of Hillius, even the concentrated power that Galatini mentioned would be enough to destroy the entire street.

Even if we don't consider her inherent skill of being able to backtrack, her stats and mechanisms alone are incredible enough to make her a pure supermodel.

So what Lei Ye said was just "try not to cause too much trouble". As long as she doesn't go too far, the people of Hillius will really have to thank her.

"Objection!" Buyadi raised her hand again, "Who do you think I am? I am the greatest devil in thousands of years, Buyadi! What's wrong with me being crazy?!"

Lei Ye grabbed her raised hand with both hands.

"Brother, please, I'll let you do what you want to me, but please don't mess around with me."

".Okay."

Buyadi slowly put her hand down and slowly looked away.

Then he hummed, picked up the knife and fork, and started eating. After chewing twice, he swung his long legs and made a happy sound.

Lei Ye slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the personality of this humanoid nuclear bomb lady is much more lovely than that of the people in the motherland. Everything goes well.
That's fine.

Buyadi is the Demon King but not the main demon. The peace of the world will not be destroyed. He will watch Buyadi having fun here and then go back to the Scorched Earth with her, where he will maintain this peace in a new way.

As long as nothing goes wrong before that, it will be fine.

He raised his head slightly and saw a man with a ferocious look striding towards him.

A bad premonition made Lei Ye's heart skip a beat.

After all, it is an Explorer's Guild, and there are all kinds of people there. Not to mention those uncultured hooligans, there are many fledgling explorers with inflated confidence who want to chat up pretty girls when they see them.

He kept repeating to himself, "Don't come over here, don't come over here," but it was no use. He saw the big man standing next to Buyadi.

Then he looked at Lei Ye.

"Is that you, Mr. Oono, the lunchbox seller?"

Lei Ye was stunned.

"what?"

After taking a closer look, the big man's expression suddenly became as bright as a child seeing his idol.

"Wow, it's really you!"
