341: Chapter 225: The Choice of Chef 341: Chapter 225: The Choice of Chef “System, play a few videos about lightning and project them directly,”
Zhang Xiaoman said to the Star Rank.
The thod he thought of was to play a video directly and then tell Jin Bao what lightning really is.
Imdiately following, a beam of light projected from his wristwatch and ford a three-dinsional image in front of him, which was strikingly a very realistic lightning bolt.
“Boom~”
With the appearance of that lightning ca the rolling sound of thunder.
Zhang Xiaoman, just to be safe, had the system switch through several versions of lightning videos repeatedly.
From a sky filled with a lightning storm to the small currents visible to the naked eye, even the scene from an ani where a yellow summoned beast used an electric attack was displayed, all to make Jin Bao understand what lightning and thunder truly were.
“I’m asking you, did you see it clearly this ti?
What was just now were lightning and thunder.
Later, when I tell you to use Thunder Strike, you will use it to strike that tree, got it?”
“Woof!”
“Good, but rember, without my command, you are absolutely not allowed to use this move on others.
Rember that, okay?”
“Woof!”
“Alright, now aim at that tree over there and use Thunder Strike!”
Jin Bao’s gaze instantly fixed on a small tree not far away, and then his eyes suddenly burst into a bright white light, with electric sparks visible around the corners of his eyes, looking solemn and commanding.
“Boom!”
A loud noise ca, and the tree abruptly made an explosion sound, its trunk was broken in two, sparks erged from the break, and the charred sawdust scattered all around.
“Such powerful force!”
Zhang Xiaoman inwardly exclaid; the killing power of this Thunder Strike Skill seed in no way inferior to the Fireball Technique’s effect.
Though he always referred to it as a small tree, it was not small by any ans; its bowl-sized trunk was no less impressive than those on the roadside, it just seed sowhat young compared to the large trees over ten ters tall on Rebirth Island.
Moreover, what surprised him the most was the speed of the skill; it was incredibly fast, almost instant hit with no visible trajectory or path.
After all, this was electricity, which traveled at the speed of light.
Though the presence of air as a dium caused so slowing, these differences were certainly beyond the discernnt of human eyes.
“Very good!
That was excellently done!”
Zhang Xiaoman didn’t forget to encourage the dog and then walked quickly to the small tree to closely inspect the break, discovering a familiar aura within the damage caused by the lightning.
This imdiately led him to activate his Spirit Detection Technique, ready to observe further.
“As I suspected, Jin Bao’s attack has traces of Dark Energy erosion.
It seems that besides regular electromagnetic and thermal damage, the Thunder Strike Skill also includes Dark Energy attacks.
In other words, it is actually a hybrid skill of physics and magic…”
Thinking this, Zhang Xiaoman stepped back a distance and then commanded Jin Bao to launch Thunder Strike again.
“Boom!”
Another loud boom resounded; the small tree from earlier was now an even shorter stump.
Zhang Xiaoman activated the Spirit Detection Technique this ti and fully focused on perceiving the process of Jin Bao’s attack, finally uncovering a sliver of the mystery of the Thunder Strike.
“So that’s how it is,” he thought.
“I was wondering how this skill was discharged.
It turns out that upon activation, Dark Energy envelops the lightning, forcibly opening up an electric field in the air, which then allows the electrical current to pass through, inflicting damage…”
With this revelation, Zhang Xiaoman turned his gaze back to Jin Bao while simultaneously speculating in his mind:
“If that’s the case, then couldn’t this skill be used in a vacuum?
Then, could I not also adjust the formula for my Fla Technique to enable its use in a vacuum as well?”
A series of guesses imdiately sprang to his mind, opening up a whole new train of thought for him.
As he was pondering, elsewhere, the massive silhouette of the Dawn suddenly appeared out of thin air and slowly descended onto the clearing in front of the Final Gate.
The hatch opened, and a line of people filed out; aside from the five new craftworkers who were supposed to return, the rest had co along as well.
Seeing their excited expressions, it was quite clear they were very fond of the upgraded Anti-gravity Car.
Not only that, among them, there was a new, young figure—it was none other than Ye Cang’s great-grandson, the one-handed Ye Fei.
At this mont, Ye Fei was dragging a suitcase, looking around the environnt with a face full of excitent.
Several mbers of the Light Blue Clan naturally took on the role of guides for the newbies, animatedly introducing the newcors to the surroundings.
When they arrived beside Zhang Xiaoman, they witnessed Jin Bao the dog unleash a Thunder Strike on the sa small tree that had been ravaged twice before, obliterating it completely.
These people were by now accustod to such sights, even upon seeing a dog with white light shining from its eyes and capable of producing lightning, they could now accept it naturally.
“Star Lord, sorry to disturb you,” Elder Ye approached and saluted Zhang Xiaoman.
“Elder Ye has also co, oh?
Who is this…?”
Zhang Xiaoman’s gaze shifted to Ye Fei, who stood behind Elder Ye.
“Star Lord, Xiao Fei is the chef we’ve chosen to co and cook for you.
Actually, Elder Ye is not boasting.
On Dragon Sleep Mountain, if you were to list the people with the best cooking skills, he would definitely rank near the top…”
As Elder Ye spoke, he started introducing his great-grandson, and it was only now that Zhang Xiaoman realized that so of the dishes he had eaten today on Dragon Sleep Mountain were personally made by him, no wonder he could describe them so proficiently.
“Cooking with just one hand, he can actually do it so well?”
Zhang Xiaoman looked at the other man in surprise, then his gaze returned to Elder Ye as he inquired:
“Elder Ye, if it’s truly as you say, then there would be no problem with him taking charge of the kitchen.
However, you are aware of the current situation here; life is not as comfortable as one might imagine.”
Zhang Xiaoman was not dismissing him, but considering his relationship with Elder Ye, Ye Fei would likely have a significant opportunity to enter the Star Alliance directly in the future; there really was no need for him to endure the hardship of being a chef.
Of course, the difficulties he ntioned were genuine.
Even though Rebirth Island tried to prepare living facilities for new employees as much as possible, it was still nowhere near city standards.
Take basic sanitation, for example; although shower rooms had been installed here, there were no proper restrooms.
Instead, the setup was similar to that of rural areas: spitting basins with manure pits, which would certainly be inconvenient for modern people.
