Chapter 408
She didn’t directly curse the tenth player or the cosmic wanderer who killed her; that kind of curse was less effective than a blind box curse. Who knew how many times she had died? Anyone wanting to kill her had to think twice.
If it weren’t for just severing the causal link with Donghai Shale, freeing up a few curse slots, she would have been in trouble.
Fei E, Yu Xunhuan, and Zenghen Jingzhi had already taken up three of those slots...
Bang, bang, bang! With three curses unleashed, the entire battlefield fell silent for a moment, even the chat channel was devoid of chatter.
The laughter of Rabbit No. 3 shattered the stillness of Restaurant No. 353.
Little Seahorse clutched its head in agony, twisting and wailing, “Ahhh, you’re cheating! How despicable!”
Mai Mang Xie Xie was equally furious, slamming its claws on the table, shouting, “This is too much! Do you have no heart of a strong warrior?!”
Yu Xunge, feeling refreshed, lifted her hand from the icon of the skill “Ancient Curse.” Hearing Mai Mang Xie Xie’s words, she pretended to cover her ears, shaking her head, “What are you talking about? I’m only at level 7! The heart of a strong warrior is not something I should concern myself with. Seriously!”
Little Seahorse was so angry it wanted to cry, “...Kill her... Xie Xie... kill her! Wuwuwu!”
**Chapter 531: Divine Game: Nonsense Restaurant 45**
Little Seahorse’s tail stiffened and curled, bouncing around in the air.
It had been killed by Donghai Shale many times, and ever since hearing that Donghai Shale’s divine talent had been snatched away by Zai Jiu Xun Ge, it had been envious.
As for Mai Mang Xie Xie, it was even more eager; the skill “Absurd Story” was practically made for it. It had always believed that “Absurd Story” was its own, merely fostered by Donghai Shale.
As a tank warrior focused on defense, if it had “Absurd Story,” it could stand still and turn the enemies’ attacks against them.
The calmest among them was Octopus Barrel, who was still lazily moving about. It even lifted a tentacle to wave the menu around, trying to attract customers.
At that moment, Rabbit No. 3, who had been ignored due to the parachuting gift box, suddenly spoke up:
“Don’t you think you’re lacking in guts? You’re just bluffing, trying to intimidate your enemies into not attacking you out of fear of losing.”
Little Seahorse chimed in, “Exactly!”
Players from both sides of the restaurant had gathered, echoing, “Exactly!”
Yu Xunge, busy preparing sauce, replied without looking up, “Don’t you think players who are too afraid to attack me out of fear of losing are lacking in guts?”
Rabbit No. 3: “…”
Little Seahorse: “Xie Xie, she’s calling you out!”
Mai Mang Xie Xie didn’t respond to Little Seahorse’s banter; it was trying hard to recall which skill it had used most frequently over the past star sea year.
Perhaps Yu Xunge’s retort annoyed Rabbit No. 3, who said, “Let’s make a deal.”
That sounded familiar, but Rabbit No. 3’s tone was worlds apart from Rabbit No. 1’s; the latter was a question, while the former was a commanding order. Yu Xunge calmly asked, “What’s the deal?”
Rabbit No. 3: “You cancel those three curses. You don’t need to worry about not being able to cancel them; I can help you with that…”
After a brief pause, it scrutinized Yu Xunge’s expression, revealing a mischievous smile as it finished, “Otherwise, I’ll issue you a food duel.”
Without a moment’s hesitation, Yu Xunge replied, “Then let’s have a food duel.”
This took Rabbit No. 3 by surprise, as if a coward had made an unexpected decision. “Do you know what happens if you leave the restaurant now?”
Yu Xunge quickened her pace in preparing the dish, saying, “I know. I’ll be hunted down by you guys, and the worst part is I might even become the ingredient.”
Just like the Tsingzhou Mirror Goose, lying on the cutting board, cleaned, cut, and cooked, while players would be conscious, forced to watch the scene unfold.
Rabbit No. 3 shook its head, “You lack guts when you should have them, and you have them when you shouldn’t. You don’t think I wouldn’t actually cook, do you?”
Clearly, it thought Zai Jiu Xun Ge was just trying to provoke it.
Yu Xunge looked at Rabbit No. 3, exasperated, “Are you my hater? You’ve said everything!”
Rabbit No. 3: “?”
Yu Xunge: “So, do you want to have a food duel or not?”
Rabbit No. 3: “Food duel!”
Players from both sides of the restaurant grabbed their stools to watch the spectacle, even the rabbits inside the restaurant moved closer with their bowls and chopsticks.
Yu Xunge cleared half of the cooking station, saying, “As an employee of Restaurant No. 353, I present you with my second reasonable request: you may not use the ingredients from this restaurant.”
Rabbit No. 3, wearing an apron, replied, “Refused.”
“As an employee of Restaurant No. 353, I present you with my third reasonable request: you can only make the same dishes as I do.”
Rabbit No. 3 sneered, “Refused.”
The cooking competition began, and a red “X” appeared at the entrance of the open-air restaurant, prohibiting entry and exit during the food duel.
Little Seahorse perched on top of Mai Mang Xie Xie’s head, “If she leaves the restaurant, where are we going to find her?”
Mai Mang Xie Xie shook its head, “It’s fine, we can find her. It’s better to let her go; we can’t act until those three curses are lifted.”
They had no intention of hiding their plans from Yu Xunge, speaking loudly as they conspired.
In fact, there was no need to hide; the battlefield was like that. Both she and Zai Jiu Xun Ge were well aware of her desire for “Midnight Exile.” If Zai Jiu Xun Ge had the chance to kill her, she wouldn’t hold back either.
Here, forming a temporary team and developing camaraderie with alien players was impossible; even facing the same world’s aliens, no one would hold back.
Yu Xunge plated the dish she had been simmering, placing it beside her, “Here’s the meal you ordered; I’ve served it.”
Rabbit No. 3, who was picking ingredients, was taken aback: !
As she served the dish, Yu Xunge added, “Now I present you with my fourth reasonable request: you can only make beverages.”
The players from Restaurant No. 353 and the two neighboring restaurants watching the spectacle fell silent, and Rabbit No. 3 was suddenly at a standstill.
Yu Xunge had already served the dish, meaning Rabbit No. 3’s dining time had begun. It had only 30 minutes to eat, and it had to leave before the time was up, but it had already started a food duel with Yu Xunge...
Since Yu Xunge would exploit this rule, she certainly wouldn’t finish her dish within 30 minutes.
Rabbit No. 3 would inevitably violate Rule Three: non-employees of Restaurant No. 353 must not exceed 30 minutes of dining time.
Moreover, it had not followed Rule One by licking Little Seahorse’s foot.
Now that Yu Xunge had presented a fourth unreasonable request, it was meaningless for Rabbit No. 3 to comply or not.
Because Yu Xunge would surely find a way to present a fifth and sixth request, aiming to make it violate Rule Eight: the number of times a diner at Restaurant No. 353 can refuse reasonable requests from employees must not exceed three.
In the quiet restaurant, Yu Xunge looked at the red barrier at the entrance, feeling relieved; things were going more smoothly than she had anticipated.
She had thought that if entry and exit were allowed during the food duel, she would serve a dish at the last minute of the dining time, leaving Rabbit No. 3 no time to finish, thus wasting it and resulting in a violation.
As long as Rabbit No. 3 was killed for violating the rules before she served her dish, the outcome of the food duel would naturally be decided.
Of course, Rabbit No. 3 wasn’t without a chance to break the deadlock.
Yu Xunge looked at Rabbit No. 3, her tone and gaze sincere, “So, are you going to lick Little Seahorse’s foot to avoid being killed?”
B8017913 flooded Yu Xunge’s mind: “This is a deity.”
Yu Xunge: “I know.”
B8017913: “This is a deity.”
Yu Xunge: “I know.”
B8017913: “This is a deity.”
Yu Xunge: “Ah, right, it’s all about the deity.”
Rabbit No. 3 glared at Yu Xunge with a cold expression.
Yu Xunge shouted to Little Seahorse, “Hey, little sea creature, have your toes grown out yet? We have a distinguished guest who wants to lick them.”
Little Seahorse had just taken flight when Rabbit No. 3 shouted at it, “Get lost!”
Yu Xunge nodded in approval, “Now that’s guts! I’m impressed.”
Little Seahorse clung to Mai Mang Xie Xie’s crab whiskers, feeling utterly wronged, “Seriously, is it that hard to accept licking my foot? I do it every day!”
**Chapter 532: Divine Game: Nonsense Restaurant 47**
Little Seahorse, reveling in the chaos, said, “Hey, you could stew my foot into soup; that’s still a plan Zai Jiu Xun Ge came up with.”
Yu Xunge didn’t stop it. If it were Rabbit No. 1, it might use this method to fulfill Rule One, but Rabbit No. 3? She didn’t think it would be willing.
Even if, to put it bluntly, it was just a bowl of seafood soup, the meaning and nature of that soup were different in this context.
Because drinking that bowl of soup was to fulfill Rule One; wasn’t that the same as licking a foot?
Even if the King of Heaven came, it would still be licking a foot!!
If Rabbit No. 3 drank it, it would be a roundabout way of bowing to Zai Jiu Xun Ge, and Zai Jiu Xun Ge and Little Seahorse would never let it off the hook.
Moreover, she believed that other deities were definitely watching them at this moment.
Yu Xunge continued to leisurely select ingredients, not in a hurry at all. She even said, “You’re the guest; if you want to drink, I can prepare it for you. No need for you to do it yourself.”
