Chapter 837 Awakening of Gourmet Cells

Chapter 837 Awakening of Gourmet Cells
This change of Scared Apple caused an uproar in the audience. Even A Lu widened his eyes, wanting to know the principle of Lu Li's scaring Apple.

"Oh my god, the scare level is over 90 and still rising!"

The appraiser from G7 (a food appraisal organization) was so shocked that he was sweating profusely and kept pushing his glasses, as if he was wondering if he had seen it wrong.

At this moment, Lu Li reached out for the Scary Apple, and at the same time, the Ultimate Fear Aura effect was maximized. He locally released some of the demonic power, and his hand was wrapped in a black substance.

In the eyes of the Frightened Apple, this change was like an indescribable demon reaching out from the depths of boundless fear and grabbing its soul.

For a moment, its fear level reached the maximum, its expression was extremely exaggerated, and it rolled its eyes in fear.

"Shock...shock...shock level...one hundred!"

The appraiser opened his mouth wide and looked at the apple, unable to speak clearly.

Moreover, he said it was level one hundred because one hundred was the standard used by their appraisers to determine the theoretical upper limit of this apple. After all, no one had ever raised the level of the Fright Apple to this level, so it was hard to say whether his judgment was accurate or not.

In fact, he felt that the shock level of this apple had exceeded level 100!
At the same time, it was not just Apple. Because Lu Li's aura was too terrifying, many ordinary people who came to the park to try their luck had fainted.

Even the appraiser himself was trembling, and so was Xia Ren, who was standing not far from Lu Li. She was actually just an ordinary person, but because she was familiar with Lu Li and knew that Lu Li would not hurt her, she did not faint.

The same went for Xiaosong who was beside Alu. After all, they had eaten together before. Xiaosong felt that although Lu Li was very fierce, he was not a bad person.

"Lu Li is so strong!"

A'lu also felt the trembling of his soul from the breath that Lu Li had just inadvertently emitted. Even the foodie demon in his body was stimulated and took the initiative to manifest itself.

The red ghost looked at Lu Li with a serious expression, thinking that this human was a little too powerful. Moreover, he had not yet sensed the gourmet demon in Lu Li's body, which made him very strange.

Lu Li held the frightened apple in his hand, and all the auras on his body were turned off. When he spoke, his tone was a little strange, "This thing is too weak, isn't it? I was just threatening it casually."

To be honest, Lu Li didn't think he was scaring the apple just now. He just casually turned on the halo and reached out to grab the apple. How come the apple's scare level was maxed out?
"Brother Lu, what you just did was not just to scare it casually..."

As Xia Ren said this, he pointed at the group of people who fell around him, "Don't even mention Apple. Even those who weren't targeted by you can't stand it."

Because they were in a public place, she naturally couldn't call Lu Li by the name of "big boss" or something like that. As a chef partner, she used a common name for ordinary people.

"I am sorry."

Lu Li smiled apologetically, and then said to the IGO member who was managing the park, "Please treat everyone. I think it should be just a minor shock. It won't be a problem."

Xia Ren thought that these people might suffer from lifelong psychological trauma, but she couldn't say it out loud, otherwise Boss Lu would get angry again.

In this way, Lu Li successfully completed Mansam's important commission. He chatted with A Lu for a few words, ate barbecue and apple salad together on the island, and then couldn't wait to return to IGO.

Because Director Mansam told him that after two days of work, IGO had produced 100,000 gourmet cells.

This injectable injection made by IGO to help people awaken gourmet cells is not the ordinary gourmet cells that can be found everywhere in nature, but a type of cell that is closer to the original form of gourmet cells.

Simply put, the gourmet cells of each organism are different, and only the original gourmet cells can be fused by humans to produce their own mutations.

As organisms grow, the abilities that individuals can obtain from gourmet cells are also different. For example, some people can even vomit insects from their bodies, which is obviously not in the same category as Alu's enhancement.

Of course, the difference in personal abilities also has a lot to do with the food demon. A food demon with good adaptability can also greatly improve its own strength.

For example, Yilong, the president of the Gourmet Club, the difference between fighting with the gourmet demon and fighting without the gourmet demon is completely two levels.

The return journey was fast. When Lu Li arrived at the Food Research Institute, Director Mansam was already outside to greet him.

"Scare level 100...Brother Lu, you always surprise me. Hahahaha, let's go, I'll welcome you, Brother Lu."

Director Mansam laughed heartily.

"Let's do the business first. It won't be too late to celebrate when I succeed."

Lu Li said with a smile.

Director Mansam is an old drunkard. When he invites people to dinner, the whole meal is basically composed of food related to wine. Lu Li personally likes it very much and thinks that Director Mansam’s full meal is very good. It is not only delicious, but the effect of the wine also makes people feel refreshed and relaxed.

But last time, Xia Ren ate too much at dinner and ended up being a drunkard. She clung to Lu Li for half a day and couldn't get off. Lu Li had to work hard to use Hui Dao to help her sober up.

The next day, Xia Ren locked himself in the room and didn't come out. I guess he had a lot of psychological struggle before he dared to come out and see people.

So Lu Li thought that it would be better to put the dinner and drinks with Mansam aside to avoid any delay.

"Okay, let's give it a try. To be honest, I'm also curious about what a person like Brother Lu would become if he awakened his gourmet cells."

Mansam said with a smile, and without further delay, he took Lu Li to the laboratory.

He had people prepare the things. There was a huge IV bottle in the research institute. There was a dreamy crystal light flowing inside, and it was full of gourmet cells.

According to Director Mansam, the original gourmet cells were first discovered from deep-sea jellyfish, which is also the easiest to purify, and the original gourmet cells are basically extracted without the need for processing.

But later, because too many people pursued gourmet cells, large-scale hunting was carried out, and the ecological balance of the ocean was slightly disrupted, those deep-sea jellyfish became less and less.

In addition, it is extremely difficult to enter the deep sea and the cost of mining is very high, so the research institute later turned to purifying original gourmet cells from delicacies on land.

"Brother Lu, are you sure you want to inject all of this into your body?" Xia Ren looked at the huge IV bottle and felt a little scared, mainly because she felt that Lu Li's approach was too aggressive.

Normally, shouldn't you take the injections one by one, gradually testing your endurance limit?
What if after drinking this bottle, Lu Li mutated into an irrational monster or died? Wouldn't she become an orphan in this world?
Oh no, have I become a poor supporter with no big legs to cling to?
Although Mr. Aizen is also very strong, he is not in this universe now, so it is not known how difficult it will be for them to reunite when the time comes.

"It doesn't look like much. I don't know if it will work."

Lu Li's words have already answered Xia Ren's question in a disguised way. He feels that these gourmet cells just happen to meet his expectations.

One bottle of IGO's gourmet cell injection is 10 ml, and bottles is million ml, or liters.

"How about you try injecting a little first, Brother Lu? If it doesn't work, I'll call a halt?"

Mansam also offered friendly suggestions. Mainly because he knew that gourmet cells were not food. If they were injected directly into the body, especially in such a large size, if not handled properly, the original ecology of the body would be completely destroyed, and the person would die in an instant of rejection reaction.

"It's okay, let's try it first."

Lu Li was very relaxed. Under the researcher's surprised gaze, he picked up the needle, which was as thick as a pen tip, and inserted it into the hematopoietic area in the center of his spine.

Mansam was shocked when he saw this, and thought to himself, it was okay that the amount was small last time, but this time the amount is so large, and you still do this?

However, he was thankful in his heart that the gears on the IV bottle had a limit on the inflow rate, so Lu Li would not be filled up instantly.

But just when he was about to ask Lu Li how he felt, his eyes suddenly widened, because he saw that at the valve that controlled the flow rate, the gear seemed to be subjected to a great force, and it automatically rolled upwards as the hose expanded, gradually releasing the restriction.

This is a manifestation of a sudden increase in pressure in the hose, but Lu Li was transfusing gourmet cells, not drawing blood, and he did not notice Lu Li's blood flowing back. Could it be that a strong suction force was generated in Lu Li's body?

But how strong would the suction force be to increase the flow rate to the point where the limiting valve gear would roll over?
Seeing Mansam and Xia Ren's horrified expressions, Lu Li raised his hand to indicate that he was fine and asked them not to make a fuss.

The suction was not controlled by Lu Li himself, but his body seemed to think that these gourmet cells were delicious and was devouring them madly. It felt that the flow rate in the restricting valve was too slow, so it increased the suction.

If the hose of the Food Research Institute was not made of special material, and the material of the large bottle on it was not equally extraordinary, the sudden increase in suction and the rapid change in pressure would probably have directly sucked the bottle into pieces, and the hose would have expanded to the point of bursting.

Under the extreme traction force, the gourmet cell fluid rapidly flowed into Lu Li's body. His body was like a bottomless pit. One cubic meter of liquid flowed into his spine and spread with the blood circulation. Lu Li did not show any edema at all.

In just a dozen seconds, half of the bottle of gourmet cells had been consumed, but Lu Li looked normal.

Under Xia Ren's worried gaze, he sat down cross-legged, and activated the Hun Yuan Ba ​​Ti Gong in his body, integrating the gourmet cells into every inch of his body.

There was no change on his surface, but a war was going on inside his body. Lu Li's body initially regarded the gourmet cells as a delicious nutrient, but with the influx of gourmet cells, these cells gradually formed an army.

The gourmet cells tried to build a position inside Lu Li's body to counterattack, rather than just being absorbed by Lu Li's body as a nutrient.

Although this resistance was fierce, Lu Li felt that the gourmet cells would eventually be devoured by himself. He felt that this was not a good way to go and he had to retain the characteristics of the gourmet cells.

So he tried to use his Qi to guide the gourmet cells to circulate quickly in his body. This was a process of adaptation and also a process of screening.

Gradually, some gourmet cells adapted to the environment in his body and mutated, becoming gourmet cells with unique characteristics.

Finally, as the huge IV bottle was completely emptied, new gourmet cells were generated in several important places in Lu Li's body.

His spinal cord and internal organs are all populated with gourmet cells, with the most in the stomach. It is probably due to the natural characteristics of this type of cell that they can adapt more easily in the stomach and absorb energy for their owner at a high speed.

The whole process sounds simple, but it is actually quite thrilling. What is thrilling is not Lu Li’s own life, but these gourmet cells.

If Lu Li's guidance and strategy were a little slower, these gourmet cells might have been completely devoured by his horrible body and would not have been able to merge and remain.

Even so, the 100,000 gourmet cells were only enough to allow him to initially awaken his gourmet cells.

Lu Li checked his spirit seed menu at this time. After opening the Chaos Spirit Seed, he found a new bloodline.

[Bloodline: Gourmet Cells]

Bloodline rating: SSS-
Current level: lv.1
Introduction: One of the most primitive and powerful bloodlines from the world of gourmet hunters. By continuously eating delicacies, it can produce endless unknown evolutions.

Current attribute bonus: 0 points (need to gain strength from gourmet cells by eating)
Bloodline Skill 1. Appetite (Passive)
Skill effect: People with gourmet cells will have a stronger appetite and amazing digestive ability to satisfy your endless appetite.

When the Pioneer is full, all resistances and natural/healing recovery abilities increase by 100% independently.
Bloodline Skill 2. Cell Evolution (Passive)
Skill effect: When the Pioneer eats high-energy food or food that is suitable for his or her gourmet cells, the gourmet cells will evolve. The evolution of the gourmet cells will bring different attribute improvements to the Pioneer. Depending on the type of food eaten, unknown abilities may also be awakened.

For this bloodline level, it is recommended to use the passive ability of cell evolution to improve it.

Bloodline Skill 3. Gourmet Devil (Unlocked)

Skill Effect: Unlock this ability after the Pioneer obtains the Gourmet Demon.

Bloodline evaluation: Foodies are the strongest!

Lu Li looked through the details of his bloodline, which were similar to the gourmet cells he knew, except that he was awakened later in life and was not born with gourmet cells, so not only was the proportion of this type of cell in his body low, but it was also just now generating its own lowest level of mutation from the original cells.

Therefore, although this bloodline is currently his highest-rated bloodline, the actual bonus it gives him is basically 0. He needs to find delicious food to eat in order to strengthen this bloodline.

Of course it is possible to use inheritance crystals to strengthen it, but that would be too wasteful, as it would lose the advantage of this bloodline being able to become stronger by eating.
