Comprehensive Comics KanColle: Building a Dimensional Empire from Scratch

He nodded.

"It's better than any of your previous dishes. It reflects the theme of the Star Ocean very well."

"I'll just say it~"

Kobayashi Rindan looked very proud.

"I've wanted to try the ones raised by the Life Sciences Department before, but unfortunately Dr. Mebius insisted they weren't meant to be eaten."

"Look, look, I told you it's a good ingredient, right?"

"Tsk!"

Mebius took the plate and forked a piece of Ether Dragon meat to taste it.

I have been doing research for so many years and have gone through so much hardship to cultivate this extremely majestic space creature.

I didn’t expect that it would be served on the table by Totsuki’s chef first, it’s amazing.

After savoring it for a while, I found that it was quite fragrant.

A greedy little dragon girl directly held the plate and came close to Lu Chen to act cute.

"Commander! Commander! Bai Lu and I also want to try it..."

"what."

When Lu Chen saw Kanna and Bai Lu, he laughed and rubbed their heads.

"Go ahead. There's a lot of gentian. Anyone who wants to try it can help themselves."

"yeah!!--"

Dragon Lady cheered, and the spectators and Totsuki chefs who had participated in the competition earlier all rushed forward.

Before long, the huge stellar dishes were completely destroyed, and even the decorative starry sky was swept away.

"Kobayashi Rindan's dishes have been very well received!! Will she be the winner of this competition?!"

"Ah... the next contestant to appear is Erina Nakiri!!"

Under the shouts of Kawashima Rei.

Erina snapped her fingers, and more than ten universal angels pushed her work onto the stage to be judged by Lu Chen.

Click, click——

The size of her dish was no less than that of a gentian, and was comparable to a small shuttle.

"Commander, my dish is - Space Meteor Whale Jelly with Osmanthus Nebula"

"Wow!--"

The audience exclaimed again.

If Kobayashi Rindou holds an entire galaxy in his disk, then Erina holds an entire galaxy!

In the deep and flowing Milky Way, the stars are dotted with bright stars, and the soft nebula is like a veil covering the starry sky.

Several large and graceful space whales swam in the Milky Way, waving their tentacles. Even the interstellar dust disturbed by their movement was clearly visible.

In many ways, this is something that is more like a work of art than a dish.

"After detoxifying the space whale, I slow-cooked it and seasoned it to serve as the main dish. I used transparent osmanthus jelly and honey jelly as the starry sea background and to give the space whale a richer taste."

"The Nebula Asteroid is made of glutinous rice and tempered dark chocolate, making it a great dessert after the entire meal."

Erina took off her headband and proudly introduced her dishes to everyone.

"Please use it, Commander. This is the best dish I can currently make under this topic."

"Oh……"

The chef from Totsuki and the audience were stunned.

Unexpectedly, after the attack from Kobayashi Ryodan, Erina was still able to cook a dish that was no less powerful than hers.

"Then, let the judging begin."

Lu Chen took a small piece from the huge space whale.

Thanks to this group of imaginative chefs, he tasted all kinds of incredible ingredients in half a day, including ether dragons, dangerous species, and even space whales.

"Um……"

The taste is not as explosive and impactful as that of gentian dishes, but instead it is extremely dense and delicate.

It makes people feel peaceful, as if they are riding on a spaceship, roaming in the sea of ​​stars and enjoying a rare vacation.

Standing in the galaxy, looking up you can see the sky full of stars. The trail of a spaceship passes through the nebula, startling a group of space whales hiding in it, causing a small commotion.

Lu Chen closed his eyes and savored it carefully, and his whole body relaxed.

"Wow--"

Alicia also took a bite and showed an intoxicated expression.

Bang! ——

"Great! Oh! My clothes! -"

“Very unique cuisine, unparalleled in both taste and visuals.”

Lu Chen praised Erina generously.

"As it should be."

Erina Nakiri was also full of pride.

"Next, it's the final contestant, Alice Nakiri's work."

Kawashima Rei waved her hand.

"Uh...her cooking is...is..."

"Sea of ​​Stardust - Cthulhu Fusion Chawanmushi"

"???"

Chapter 1272 Why Choose? I Want Them All

Alice Nakiri's cooking was not as exaggerated as that of Ryodan and Erina. She came to Lu Chen with a plate of food.

"Commander, please."

What catches your eye is the dark blue Japanese tea bowl, which is filled with a deep background like the deep sea of ​​the universe.

It looked like steamed egg, but also like something else. The surface was covered with an extremely thin, translucent gelatinous substance, like the gauze of the universe.

Tiny dark stars and stardust are suspended inside, shining brightly under the fluorescent powder.

Compared to the first two giant dishes made with space creatures, Alice's chawanmushi seems a lot more normal.

But considering the name of this dish and the raw materials used, no one dares to underestimate it.

"Oh, Alice Nakiri's dish is quite small! She chose a very ordinary dish."

"The visual impact seems to be a little less than the previous two contestants?"

Kawashima Rei leaned over.

“The essence of cuisine lies in fusion rather than exaggerated presentation.”

The girl with white hair and red eyes answered nonchalantly.

"I've incorporated everything from the Star Empire into this chawanmushi using molecular gastronomy techniques. Commander, please try it."

As she spoke, she winked at Lu Chen.

"If you need me to feed you, that's fine~"

"..."

Lu Chen stirred the starry sky in the tea bowl with a spoon. The touch seemed no different from the steamed egg he had for breakfast.

The design is just very cool, and the three contestants all used dishes to construct the concept of "starry sky".

As soon as he took a bite, he frowned.

In terms of taste, my brain tells me that I have eaten a bite of steamed egg.

But the taste system is reporting errors like crazy.

All at once, thousands of complex flavors emerged: the sweetness of butterfly pea flowers and blue algae, the freshness of caviar, and the stimulation of wasabi paste and mustard oil.

Different flavors intertwined together, and it was difficult to judge what it was for a moment.

If you savor it carefully, you can taste the various delicacies from land and sea that you have eaten before. All the ingredients of the entire Star Sea Empire are integrated into one bowl.

They are also carefully blended to create a rich layering of flavors.

At the end of the taste, there is a very impactful, mysterious and powerful force as the ending.

My thoughts were once again drawn into the dark universe, listening to the vague whispers coming from distant galaxies.

A certain existence hidden in the sea of ​​stars, older than the history of the universe, is watching him and telling him the forbidden knowledge.

For a moment, everyone who was tasting the food was a little dazed, their eyes were unfocused, and they stood there blankly with their gazes vacant.

"Eh?"

"Ms. Alicia? Lady Altria? Senior Hisako?!"

Kawashima Rei waved her hand in front of them, but there was no response.

Everyone stared at the sky in a daze, as if they had been bewitched.

"Alice, you didn't put any illegal drugs in the food, did you?!"

Kawashima Rei was shocked.

"No!! Illegal drugs don't work on them, right?!"

"Cough, cough cough—"

Lu Chen cleared his throat and came back to his senses.

Staring at the starry sky in the bowl, he knew where the illusion just now came from.

"You... added some elements of the Outer Gods into it?"

"Yes! Provided by Nyaruko and Shabuko! It's what I was dealing with just now!"

Alice raised her hand.

"They have existed for as long as the universe itself, making them the perfect representation of the galaxy."

"I really admire the Starlight Color that Nyako made. Unfortunately, I'm too weak to handle that dish."

"So... I wanted to be able to control the ingredients. Adding a tiny amount of Outer God power to the food wouldn't turn the whole dish into a dark dish, nor would it kill the judges."

"I think the hallucinogenic ingredients are just right. I reorganized the molecules of common ingredients in the Star Empire, such as caviar, dangerous species, and protogastric animals, extracted their active ingredients, and combined them into a new dish."

"So, this Starry Sky Chawanmushi contains everything about the Star Sea Empire!"

“…very creative.”

Lu Chen touched Alice's head.

Her cooking also brought her surprises. She combined various ingredients together through molecular cuisine and pointed out the concept of the sea of ​​stars with the power of the gods.

Although it is not as spectacular as what Erina and Rindou did, its level of sophistication far surpasses theirs.

"..."

"Commander has tasted three dishes. Now we enter the final judging phase!—"

Kawashima Rei's words made the three chefs nervous.

"This is the finals of the cooking competition! There is only one judge, the Commander! His score will determine the final score for each contestant!!!—"

"In addition, based on the content of the three people's food battles, this competition will also determine who will be the commander's personal chef!——"

Swah——

The audience and Totsuki's chef all looked over.
