New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 32: Transition to the Sprint

the next day.

When Lei Ye woke up from the sofa, it was already around eight or nine in the morning.

Last night, the red-haired female knight begged for help, and seemed very frightened, and was unwilling to stay in the daily rental hotel, so Lei Ye took her back to Lei Ye's house.

From now on, there is no old or new Lei Ye family, there is only one Lei Ye family.

I should pay to buy this place later, so that I won't be without a convenient base when doing things in Hillius in the future.

I didn't rush to get up. I tilted my head to look and found that Bu Yadi, who was supposed to sleep on the sofa on the other side, was not there.

In a corner of the sofa, the female knight was squatting. She was shivering, and the bloodshot in the corners of her eyes seemed like she had not slept all night.

Lei Ye tried to ask her some questions yesterday, but she was hesitant and just said something weird like she didn't want to be hypnotized, so Lei Ye didn't ask any further questions and planned to let her calm down a little before continuing the conversation.

At this moment, a blonde woman suddenly poked her head out from the side of the sofa.

"You're awake."

Lei Ye looked up.

Last night's events were so chaotic that Lei Ye didn't have time to carefully observe this version of Kun-Lai.

The face was not much different from the one she had seen in the newspaper before, but there was a pair of black horns on her head and long golden hair covering her back, making her look quite charming.

"Ahhh Ohno-sensei, the living Ohno-sensei"

Although she was not as pretty as Buyadi, she was still a pretty woman. However, after just looking at her twice, the guy showed an expression that was not flattering.

How should I put it? If I must describe it, I can only say that it is a standard "nympho" face.

Lei Ye silently wiped the small stain of her saliva on his clothes and decided to say hello to her properly after some time.

A fragrance wafted out.

Lei Ye turned his head and saw Buyadi, who was wearing an apron, walking out of the kitchen with a bowl of soup.

She hummed, in a happy mood, and walked lightly to the living room.

The cook Lei Ye stood up in a snap, very quickly.

Running to the dining table, Lei Ye looked at what Buyadi had made with curiosity. It was a bowl of chicken soup.

Buyadi smiled proudly, "Would you like to try it?"

Judging from the aroma, he knew that this bowl of chicken soup was extraordinary. Lei Ye immediately took the spoon and tried a sip, and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Very delicious! The only difference between this bowl of chicken soup and the chicken soup I made myself is the extra bonus that comes with the [Cook Man] skill. Its own deliciousness is absolutely overwhelming in this world.

"So, you are a chef too?"

"No, this is my first time cooking, but I followed the steps in your memory and restored them one by one. Of course, I also poured in my love," Buyadi squeezed her legs together slightly, "How is it? How do you feel? Delicious?"

“It’s delicious. Very delicious!”

"As long as you like it, I will try to make something else occasionally in the future, hehe."

Buyadi looked very happy, almost unnaturally happy.

In order not to spoil her fun, Lei Ye decided to enjoy the bowl of chicken soup alone, while the others used the pre-prepared dishes in his storage bag as breakfast.

I went outside and looked at Shi Tou Mei who had been guarding the door all night.

She was still the same as in the first round, squatting at the door with no sense of existence. Lei Ye did not prepare any stones for her this time, so he could only let her pick up stones to eat at the door for the time being.

Then, the two people experienced the same conversation that happened in the first week.

Next came Ai Er Jie Jie.

It took Lei Ye some time to find her. She was leaning against a door in the basement, looking like she wanted to go in.

I always feel that she is quite familiar with this house.

Using food to easily lure Jiejie into his arms, and after carrying her to the first floor, today's breakfast can begin. Lei Ye laid out everything and glanced at the female knight who was still squatting in the corner.

She was feeling a little better now, but her eyes were still empty.

Lei Ye squatted beside her and silently handed her the mushroom lunch box.

Then he sat next to Buyadi, soaked the rice in chicken soup, and started to eat the rice in big mouthfuls.

"Let me ask you something. Is your so-called rewinding skill just the save function? Is there a skip function?" Lei Ye complained while eating. "I just had an almost identical conversation with Murphy. To be honest, it was a bit awkward. Can't we skip a segment that we've already experienced once?"

"I can understand that you fast-forward text and watch CG in gaming, but do you want to skip your own life?"

Lei Ye couldn't refute.

He glanced at Buyadi, who was supporting her cheek with her hands, eating slowly while staring at him. There was an indescribable charm in her every move.

The feeling she gave Lei Ye was different. She became more dangerous than before, but Lei Ye couldn't tell where she was more dangerous.

Noticing Lei Ye's gaze, Buyadi raised the corner of her mouth and smiled, with an expression as if she was about to do something bad.

"Eh" Lei Ye was chewing and suddenly was stunned.

Something rested on his thigh.

Needless to say, he knew what it was; it was a jade foot.

"Let's talk about what's next. What are you going to do next? What are your plans?"

The foot playfully slapped Lei Ye's thigh with the instep.

"I'm going back to the Scorched Earth. By the way, does the castle you gave me still count?"

"Of course it counts. How could I possibly treat my man badly? But I'll need your help with something I can do for you when the time comes."

Hearing the words "my own man", Lei Ye suddenly understood where Buyadi's strange feeling came from. She now looked like the unsatisfied new wife in the movie.

So when Lei Ye heard the word "a small favor", he couldn't help but become cautious.

"what's up?"

"It's simple. I want you to plant something with me. Just some flowers and plants. I have something I want to verify."

".Okay, no problem, stop for a moment. Stop for a moment! Are you watching some special little video in my mind again? Or the special XP kind!"

Xiao Mang was a little puzzling but it was no big deal, just planting some things. Lei Ye also planned to plant some green onions after reaching the scorched earth.

But the feet under the table are starting to go a bit too far.
At this moment, the female knight sitting in the corner finally got up from the ground and sat on the seat. Considering the posture she had just sat on the ground and her slightly ruddy expression now, I wonder if she had seen something just now.
The jade foot was put down.

"Are you feeling better?" Lei Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked the female knight.

".Yes, thank you very much. If I hadn't met you, I would have become a puppet again. Thank you very much."

She said this in a weak tone.

This person, whether in appearance or the impression he left on Lei Ye before, was quite arrogant. But now he is very, very honest.

If it were now, maybe I could start asking her for some information.

"You continue eating first." Lei Ye pointed at the mushroom fried rice in her hand.

[Mushroom Fried Rice]: Fried rice made with wild green mushrooms as ingredients. It can restore a certain amount of sanity. Excessive consumption may cause hallucinations.

While she was eating in silence and calming down a little, Lei Ye had already thought of a few questions he wanted to ask her.

"First of all, hypnosis and brainwashing, I need you to explain this term in detail."

Lei Ye had asked Buyadi before whether she had any knowledge of hypnosis magic, and Buyadi's answer was that only the witches in the dense forest had similar skills. If she had to say, the "charm" possessed by the succubus royal family might also count.

But now, this term appeared in the mouth of the knights of the royal city.

He was very curious. Putting the two tags "hypnosis" and "knight" together, he couldn't help but be curious.

".Can I not say it? I am about to be killed and I just want to go home. Please, I know it is too abrupt to ask you all of a sudden, but I really don't know who to ask for help. If you can take me home, I will do anything for you."

Lei Ye's question made the female knight panic, and she whispered intermittently.

I really don't know why she is so scared.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell us. Anyway, we won't help people whose background we don't know. At worst, I can just throw you to the Law Enforcement Department," Buyad said casually. Seeing that the female knight didn't react, she added, "Or just send you directly back to the cathedral in the royal city. You'll be happier there."

The female knight trembled violently.

She gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and began to slowly narrate the events she had experienced.

"I was selected two years ago when I signed up with my childhood sweetheart. We didn't want to stay in our hometown and farm, so we wanted to go to the biggest city to try our luck. If we can pass the assessment and become a knight, that would be the best. If we are not selected, we plan to come to this city and become explorers."

"It turned out to be smoother than I thought. My qualifications seemed to be quite good. The assessment team immediately decided to keep me. Because I understood their attitude, I could also make a request so that my childhood sweetheart who originally could not pass the assessment could successfully become an apprentice knight."

"But what happened afterwards——Huh? Ah?"

The female knight placed her feet on the seat, hugged her legs, and showed a strong sense of uneasiness.

"I don't remember. I don't remember. I don't remember. I don't remember. Two years have passed in the blink of an eye. I became a high-ranking knight, but the things in between are very vague. I can't remember anything about what happened after I passed the assessment. I only remember that my heart was filled with the glory and pride of becoming a knight, and the loyalty to dedicate my whole life to the Frey Empire. My colleagues were also like this, but it's not like this. I can now clearly remember that the reason I became a knight was just to make money! Why did it become like this?"

"Then, what happened a few days ago, my childhood sweetheart drugged me and took me out. I tried desperately to resist at first, but every time I regained consciousness, I was drugged again. It wasn't until two days after we arrived in Hillius by carriage that my mind became clearer. I'm not saying that I regained consciousness from the drug, but I think a lot of things seem strange to me."

"Hypnosis and brainwashing, these are the words my childhood sweetheart told me. If he is right, for the past two years, I have been living under the control of others, like a puppet being manipulated by others. This feeling is too terrible, too terrible. So now I just want to go home. Farming doesn't matter to me anymore. If possible, I would rather have never left my hometown."

Having said that, Lei Ye probably understood what was going on.

Very simple thing.

This made Lei Ye fall into deep thought.

Hypnosis actually exists, such a twisted skill.

I wonder if this skill will be effective on Buyadi?

After glancing at Buyadi, her expression became a little serious. She stood up, walked to the female knight and pressed her shoulder.

To others, it seemed that she was comforting the female knight, but Lei Ye knew that she was probably using the memory reading ability that she didn't like to use very much. After all, the hypnosis skill was also a super model of incredible level. Buyadi must have thought of this, so she must try to get more information.

But Buyadi just shook her head. "Ah, it's a mess."

It seems that the hypnotized subject's memories of the time when they were hypnotized cannot be read.

Lei Ye turned his gaze to the female knight and continued to question.

"Your childhood sweetheart is the trainee knight with the gray smiley face on his shoulder, right? I saw you two at the slave trader before. Where is he now? I have something to ask him. And since I'm going to send you home, it would be better to send you two back together."

Hearing this, the female knight became furious.

"How would I know where that loser is? I was very touched when he brought me out of the royal city, but when I saw other knights chasing after me, that guy ran faster than anyone else!"

Oh, maybe the mushroom fried rice started to work, or maybe it was because I mentioned the thing that made her angry, and she finally cheered up and even spoke with power.

As for the trainee knight, he was a guy who didn't even dare to challenge the goblins, so it was normal for him to be scared by the Knights.

The Knights. They said that the royal city had sent people to capture her.

There is no need to worry about this kind of thing. Lei Ye is not worried about whether he can win the fight.

The problem is that
"Hey Buyadi, do you think this hypnosis skill could work on you?"

Originally, Lei Ye thought that Buyadi could be invincible by relying on her recall skill.

But now it seems that there may be other supermodel skills in this world.

"No, that's impossible," Buyadi answered decisively, "This skill tests the user's mental strength and the target's mental endurance. Based on the events I've experienced, I don't think anyone in this world has mental endurance greater than mine."

The two attributes that Bu Yadi mentioned are hidden attributes that will not be displayed on the identification mirror, but if they really exist, a tough character like Bu Yadi who has been through countless replays must have extremely strong mental power, and it is too cheap to be hypnotized so easily.

"Why are you asking this?" Buyadi raised an eyebrow and came closer, tapping Leiye's side with her elbow. "Why? Worried about me? Have a crush on me?"

"Yes." Lei Ye did not deny it.

Seeing Buyadi smiling evilly beside him, his expression suddenly froze and his body softened, Lei Ye felt a stab in his heart again.

After knowing the concept of mental patience, he was actually not worried that Buyadi would be hypnotized.

What he was worried about was that Buyadi had learned hypnosis.

In that case, he would really become a fish on the chopping board of this female pervert, and she could hang him up at any time if she wanted.

Don't do that. If Bu Yadi really learns the magic of hypnosis, then just don't resist and just obey her. Even if you really get hung up, at least you can still enjoy the pleasure.

Thinking of this, Lei Ye couldn't help but look beside him.

"Ahh. I can't stand this warm feeling. Why didn't I experience this earlier?"

Buyadi was standing alone, holding her face and twisting her body like a maggot.

After a while, she calmed down a little and looked at Lei Ye with a smile.

"My dear, do you care so much about this skill? Well, I don't know what to do next, so I'll just accompany you to investigate a little. My suggestion is to find that old acquaintance first."

".who?"

"Of course it's Miss Sekopos. She has her spies planted in every corner of Hillius, looking for her saintly lover. Hehehe~" Buyad hugged her clingingly, "Let's go there after breakfast~ By the way, I want to show off~"

What are you showing off?
"Ah, speaking of which, you two had a little unpleasantness before. This is a bit difficult to deal with. That girl seems to have an okay personality, but she is actually a big psychopath and very petty. I'm not sure if she will be willing to help."

How dare you call others crazy?
However, Sekbosi had said before that she was not sexy enough, which seemed to have made her angry, so it was really not good to suddenly go to her for help.

Lei Ye suddenly thought of something and raised a finger.

"Eh."

He rummaged through his storage bag and found a wheelchair that he had made when he was teaching himself how to make magic props.
