Everyone's a Hunter? I'm a Hunter x Hunter!

"Chicken soup is here!"

Chef Rousong brought in a pot of chicken soup and placed it on the table of the title hunter.

His assistant then placed a pot on the table of Lü Xiu and the others.

"Everyone, have some soup first, to cleanse your mouths and soothe your throats," Ma Qilin said, getting up first to serve soup to Niu Jiaojiao.

A blatant favoritism.

Niu Jiaojiao, on the contrary, was a little embarrassed.

Everyone ladled soup for themselves.

This soup is the "appetizer" for this dragon meat feast.

Nourishing Chicken Soup

Quality: Treasure

Effect: Increases the buff effects of consuming food by 100% (lasts for three hours, cannot be stacked).

Description: Chicken soup made by simmering a precious breed of old hen with a variety of high-quality ingredients.

A delicacy of the highest quality!

Consuming delicious food increases the buff effects by 100%!

If Lü Xiu had drunk the nourishing chicken soup before eating the meat bun yesterday, he would have gained not just 1 point of strength, but 2 points!

Today's dragon meat feast begins with nourishing chicken soup; one meal is equivalent to two.

Lu Xiu blew on the hot soup, not caring what kind of spoon he used, and drank it directly from the bowl.

A warm current entered my mouth, like a spring breeze gently brushing across my face.

Before he could even savor the moment, the spring breeze had already entered his body through his throat, warming and nourishing his entire being. Lü Xiu suddenly felt a sense of comfort, as if he were soaking in a hot spring.

It makes you want to groan!

"Wuhu~~~" Ma Qilin couldn't help but pout, his mouth agape as if he was about to exhale.

"It's so delicious!" Both Niu Jiaojiao and Tang Baibai, the two food hunters, were moved to tears.

This is no exaggeration. As food hunters, they are more able to feel the power in this seemingly ordinary bowl of chicken soup than people who are not food hunters.

Since it was chicken soup, it naturally contained chicken meat. In less than a minute, the old hen inside was shared among the seven people.

Lu Xiu also ate a chicken leg.

Both the chicken soup and the chicken leg were served as appetizers, so they didn't have much flavor. But how did this master chef manage to make such bland chicken soup taste so good?

With Lü Xiu's level of skill, he could only discern that the chicken soup likely contained a considerable amount of expensive tonics. Even the chicken used to make the soup was probably a rare mythical beast.

After the appetizing chicken soup.

The chef's assistant began serving the cold dishes.

There are eight exquisite small cold dishes in total.

Cold jellyfish salad, poached chicken, deep-fried cashews, and braised beef.

Steamed hairy crab, snow frog, mango cake, strawberry jelly.

The above dish names are a summary by Lü Xiu. Although he had seen all the dishes before, the ingredients for these dishes were all unusual.

Take the most basic strawberry jelly as an example. The strawberries used in strawberry jelly are of the premium "Honey Cream" variety.

Although it's of superior quality, its rarity and exceptional taste make it more expensive than ordinary rare-grade ingredients. This price is driven up by those gourmet food hunters.

Lu Xiu ate a piece of strawberry jelly.

Honey Cream Strawberries have a rich, sweet flavor reminiscent of honey and cream, without any tartness. However, the downside is that eating just a couple can be overwhelming.

However, the pork floss chef used a jelly-like method to process the honey-red cream strawberries, and added a touch of mint and lemon to neutralize the cloying sweetness.

When it falls into your mouth, it has a sweet taste, with a hint of sourness that whets the appetite.

"Holy crap, Niu Bo Yi (voice cracks!)"

[Tip: Consuming Honey Red Cream Strawberry Jelly increases Spirit by 1; the effects of consuming gourmet food are increased by 100%, and Spirit is additionally increased by 1]

Comfortable~

Not only is it delicious, but you also get attribute bonuses!

Minute Maid!

The eight exquisite cold dishes were quickly devoured by the seven people present.

Each dish was shared among everyone. Each small cold dish provided an attribute boost.

八道精緻小冷盘，一共提供2点力量、2点敏捷、2点体质、2点精神。也就是全属性+2。因为滋养鸡汤的效果，吕修等人直接获得全属性+4！

Not counting free attribute points, this is equivalent to everyone leveling up by 4!

Don't be too cool!

There's a reason why master chefs are so sought after.

That's incredible!

Lu Xiu made up his mind that whether it was for his future career as a gourmet hunter, the attributes of gourmet rewards, or simply to satisfy his own appetite, he had to improve his cooking skills.

I'm a man who's going to become a pirate... cough, a chef king!

"Qilin, from now on you are my half-sister!" Little White Rabbit Tang Baibai patted Ma Qilin on the shoulder, extremely grateful.

As gourmet hunters, their talent allows them to absorb more nutrients from food and gain more attributes.

That's why all the Gourmet Hunters are such muscular giants!

First of all, I'm a man.

"Secondly, we're all brothers, no need to be so polite!" Ma Qilin waved his hand generously.

He knew all too well the importance of getting along well with her best friend if he wanted to pursue a girl.

So, instead of just inviting Niu Jiaojiao, Ma Qilin shamelessly asked his teacher for face and invited Niu Jiaojiao's three best friends as well.

Looking at it now, the results are remarkable!

"This meal is too expensive, and I don't have anything to pay for it. If you need any mythical beasts, you can come to our merchant guild and I can give you a few," Liu Yuerou promised.

"Me too, me too!" Catgirl Ding Qiaoqiao waved her hand, the bells on her body jingling.

"I'm a tailor from the Floating Clouds Merchant Guild; I can get you the lowest discounts!"

"Then I can only cook a meal. Of course, my skills are far inferior to those of this master chef, but as long as you don't mind," Tang Baibai said proactively after her two sisters made their promise.

"Then...then I'll help Bai Bai find ingredients," Niu Jiaojiao said timidly, raising her hand.

Clearly, these girls weren't the type to indulge in gluttony just because Ma Qilin invited them.

The group agreed to have another meal together sometime. Of course, Lin Yufei and Lü Xiu were also among those who would join them.

Having a meal together is indeed one of the best ways to strengthen friendships.

However, these eight small cold dishes are merely appetizers.

The real dragon meat feast has only just begun.

The chef's assistants quickly served the first dish.

Seven palm-sized pieces of meat were arranged on the plate. The surface of the meat had an enticing reddish-brown sheen, and the broth was thick and translucent. Just looking at it made one's mouth water.

How to braise!

The attributes of the dishes were then revealed to the seven people.

Braised Mud Dragon Crocodile

Quality: Treasure

Effects: Strength +2, Skin Defense +1, Stamina Recovery Speed ​​increased by 10%.

Description: Take the meat of the mud dragon crocodile, cook it by braising, and eating it will greatly increase your strength.
