Chapter 593 Small Gains
The life of a professional is simple and straightforward, either progress or be driven to death by one's own talent.
Every professional's life is a race against time. Maybe forcibly lowering the rank can play a certain role, but in the end, there will still be a day when it gets out of control.
The only "royal way" is always to improve your career rank. As long as you are a suppressed career rank and can run faster than the "thing" in your body, you don't have to worry about losing control completely.
Ascension is the kingly way, but it is not enough to rely solely on penance.
Improvement also requires periodic adjustments. After each hunt, you need enough time to rest and digest. It can be said that most of the time of professionals should be spent outside the battlefield.
"Looks like they're busy"
Lu Pingan's temporary team disbanded after returning. Everyone made a lot of money. It takes time and the market to turn the harvest into resources that they can absorb, and use it to improve their professional ability and actual combat characteristics.
"Is Ba Man pillow attacking the fourth order?"
"She shouldn't have a big problem, it should be stimulated this time."
As the leader of the temporary team, Lu Pingan has a regular contact manual for the team members. At least they will mention what they are doing recently and what plans they have.
"I personally suggest buying some potions and materials for it, and funding it a little bit."
As Lu Ping'an's acting secretary, Miss Catherine did all the trivial and troublesome liaison work.
In her opinion, the four mercenaries are all valuable, and they are also the top combat power that the current team can recruit. It is necessary to build a good relationship. Of course, the main reason is that the team's book surplus is too high, and it is necessary to find some reason to release it. Give some money and some benefits.
This is Lu Pingan's previous strategy. This time, he earned a bit too much. He couldn't digest it all by himself. If you don't give more points to the rest of the team, how can others work for you in the future.
"Okay, you can do it, right, send this barbecue combination, she might be able to digest it."
What Lu Pingan had in his hands was a huge incubator that could be used as a violin case. This was the "benefit" that everyone received after the war.
For an evil beast like the Mother of Stone Dragons, if her meat quality is processed by a "chef", it must be a gourmet dish with amazing effects.
But unlike most people's impression that "high-end chefs handle high-end cuisine differently", the biggest difference between high-level chefs and low-level chefs is actually the degree of interference with "materials". Top chefs can turn a pile of garbage into high-quality consumables And buffs, you can also process the "top material" that is suddenly killed at the entrance, so that mid-level professionals can also enjoy it (the effectiveness will be reduced).
Even if the reinforcements came, the level of chefs who could handle the loot was still limited. The last "product" of the Mother of Stone Dragons was rated as "a physical tyrannical person above the law level can try it."
This thing is useless after a long time, and Lu Pingan, who was present at the law level, naturally got a lot of it.
Lu Pingan had already eaten it himself.
[Mother of Stone Dragon's high-quality honey barbecue (silver rank): After tasting it for the first time, there is a certain chance of increasing physical and mental strength, and increasing the stone resistance attribute to a certain extent. (Prolonged effect treatment has been done, valid for 24 hours)]
[ps: Due to the chef's limited cooking skills, the pollution of this dish obviously exceeds the standard, please take it with caution. 】
The explanation is quite simple, but in fact, the value is extremely high, and the "food" that can permanently increase attributes is difficult to describe with market prices. In most cases, it is cooked and eaten on the battlefield.
[The host took "Mother of Stone Dragon's high-quality honey barbecue (silver median)", successfully digested it, permanently obtained a small amount of petrochemical resistance, and greatly improved his body. 】
[Congratulations to the host, the body resists the pollution fluctuations, and the physique breaks through the brass upper rank! 】
[Current status: physique (brass upper), reflection (black iron middle), spirit (brass middle)]
Lu Pingan was lucky, his physique was permanently improved, and he also broke through the bottleneck that has been stuck on him. Of course, this is also related to his relatively low basic attributes. Under normal circumstances, those who can withstand this level of food should have at least attributes Got some silver.
The system prompt is "significantly improved", which means that the effect of this level can be called a great supplement to Lu Pingan, who is relatively "virtual" now.
"Tsk, is this tempting me to hunt down powerful monsters?"
As far as Lu Ping'an's current situation is concerned (high resistance, low attributes), borrowing the ability of the gourmet department is indeed a shortcut to make up for the shortcomings of attributes, and it may save a lot of money compared to potions.
"You don't even eat the barbecue I cook." It's just that Zhixi, full of resentment, made the barbecue on the spot.
"That thing, if you want to murder, just say it."
[Mother of Stone Dragon's uncooked barbecue (lower gold): Due to the limitation of the barbecue level and cooking utensils, this barbecue has a strong stench, bloody, and raw meat taste, please eat it with caution. 】
[After the first taste, as long as there is no death or petrification, the body and spirit will definitely increase, and the stone resistance attribute will definitely increase to a large extent. (valid for 10 minutes)]
[PS Warning: This meat contains a strong petrification curse, please take it with caution by professionals above the regular level.]
It looked powerful, but Lu Pingan knew that if he ate this thing, he would die suddenly on the spot.
It was placed there, and no one dared to touch it. Everyone could feel the strong breath of death in it.
"Food" does not mean that the higher the level, the better. On the contrary, the evaluation of the "level" is actually the "pollution intensity" activated by the food ingredients, and the lower rank of gold is simply the way to death.
It is best for professionals to eat food of the same level, and a chef who can just make the required "pollution level" food is an excellent chef who does not waste materials and does not treat his teammates badly.
At Zhixi's level, facing high-level materials, she is a pure teammate killer just like Lu Ping'an back then.
"Can I have a piece too?" Catherine hesitated, but asked anyway.
At this time, Lu Pingancai remembered that Catherine in front of her was actually at the law level.
"certainly."
The ingredients are overflowing, and the amount of grilled meat is quite a lot. After the food is out of the oven, its effectiveness will continue to weaken over time, and it will even continue to deteriorate out of control. It is useless to wait for the expiration date, and Lu Pingan will naturally not refuse.
And after she took it, it instantly turned into a ball of flames. This level of "food" contains the power of a superior person, and it is a bit too much for her who does not have a gourmet career.
The fire burned for three hours before it was finally extinguished.
Judging from her fairer skin and happy face afterwards, she should have gained a lot.
"I feel that my strength has improved, and I can summon more flames. In your terms, it is spiritual power? It should be that those have improved."
Lu Pingan discovered another advantage of his "courtyard". It is quite convenient in this kind of distribution of spoils. As long as he is willing to spend points, he can quickly call everyone together.
He simply called people, and several people who might digest the food were called over to share a share, but judging from the results, it was quite subtle.
Xia Qin vomited in one mouthful, and Mao Mao didn't even dare to touch it, but Xue En was very happy to eat it.
Lu Pingan also took the opportunity to learn about some situations. I have to say that everyone has been doing well recently.
Xue En, the lucky one, is hitting Tier 3. With his current physical strength, he doesn't need to worry about those messy things at all, he just needs to pile up his combat jobs.
Xia Qin was obsessed with the trivial duties of the secret service team, and she couldn't just slack off on this aspect, but she was also thinking about part-time jobs during this time, and planned to improve some "functionality".
I heard that her mentor recommended her the driver system, but it seems that the progress is not fast, and the compatibility is a bit low.
Maomao’s progress has been very fast before, but recently it’s very annoying, because Da Mao suggested that she become a part-time scholar. There are six orifices, but none of them understand.
But in the words of the big cat
"It would be too wasteful if you don't take part-time jobs of prophets, psykers, and gods with spiritual physique. A purely combat job is a high-level infantry, and you can't go far. Scholar is a must-have part-time job for many high-level paths. If you don’t specialize in it, you can’t completely stop touching it.”
Everyone was busy with their own affairs, and after a little communication, Lu Pingan realized that his progress was a little too slow. In fact, he was also dragged down by trivial team affairs, and did not concentrate on improving himself.
But there is a "planner" at the level of big cats, and his future schedule is actually full, and the rest is nothing more than working overtime.
