The Highest Bounty

Chapter 100

Gu Ding and Liliath completely did not expect that their newly added member would have such terrifying combat power. Power that required less than five minutes to kill a Level 8 Gene Body giant golden whilst underwater.

At Gu Ding"s current strength, he estimated that he would be able to face a Level 7 Gene Body. However, if he met a Level 8 Gene Body, the only thing he could do was run for his life. If Gu Ding was to meet a giant golden alligator underwater, he might just end up as dessert.

After Biggie went ash.o.r.e, invisible energy emanated from within him. After a while, his wet clothes were completely dried.

As he dragged the giant alligator by the tail toward Gu Ding, he flexed his arm slightly and the giant, thirty-meter long alligator bounced up as if controlled by a strange force, landing precisely in front of the three of them.

When his palm moved, an invisible bladelike force shot out from his fingers and swiftly dismembered the body of the giant alligator.

Biggie cut the tail alone into more than three thousand parts. After that, he proceeded with the limbs, then the torso, and lastly the head.

A fist-sized Energy Crystal was finally taken out and Biggie handed it to Gu Ding.

The whole process took less than twenty minutes, and all the cooks that witnessed the entire thing were stunned. That was the Level 8 Gene Body giant golden alligator, the creature with leather so tough that no knife could pierce it. However, that same impenetrable armor was cut through like b.u.t.ter at the hands of Biggie.

"He"s good!" Gu Ding and Liliath looked at each other. Both of them could see the shock in each other"s eyes, and they also estimated that Biggie"s gene-level was at least level 9.

While Biggie looked at the recipes that Neptune sent to his wrist.w.a.tch, he happily prepared the big feast.

"To tell you the truth, I didn"t expect this guy to be this strong." Neptune did not think Gu Ding and Liliath"s new recruit would be that terrifying. It did not matter to Neptune whether there was a cook or not, but he knew they were going to get one sooner or later. Besides Robert and himself, the rest of the crew needed food, so he did not raise any objections when Biggie was recruited.

"Neptune, do you know how primary power can be practiced?" Gu Ding watched the movements in Biggie"s hands and his eyes flashed with excitement.

"Yes, but you can"t practice it yet because your Cell Index must be above 1000 points. Using your primary power prematurely will only damage your cells." Although Neptune said that Gu Ding might be able to practice, Neptune already planned out Gu Ding"s training regimen. Gu Ding would have to wait until he had a Cell Index of at least 1000 points before Neptune would allow him to start practicing his primary power. 

"Even though my Cell Index is only 300 points, I"ve been told that having the regenerative ability will allow my cells to repair at a rate that is equivalent to a person with a 3000-point Cell Index. Doesn"t that mean I don"t have to wait until I"ve reached 1000 points?" Gu Ding reb.u.t.ted, a little unwilling to accept Neptune"s answer. Mostly because he did not know when his next level up would be. When he saw how strong Biggie was with his primary power, he did not want to wait a second longer.


"You"re right in which your recovery rate is ten times the normal speed, but the strength of your cells is still essentially 300 points. No matter what you say, I won"t teach it to you. I"ll block all information about practicing primary power in both Liliath and Biggie"s wrist.w.a.tch, as well as all search results from the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p. Before your Cell Index reaches 1000 points, don"t even think about it."

"Gu Ding, Neptune"s right. The training of primary power requires the cells in the person"s body to withstand a high force. A 1000-point Cell Index is the minimum requirement." Liliath dissuaded Gu Ding when she saw how adamant he was being. "In fact, I"ve also wanted to practice my primary power for a long time so I wouldn"t be as ineffective of a gunner. I wanted to have a larger impact with my shots, just like the masked man."

"Fine..." Gu Ding gave up after hearing what Liliath said.

On the other hand, Biggie finished up his first dish, teppanyaki alligator meat.

Everyone was in awe as they looked at the steamy aroma rise from the burning red iron plate. Biggie handed a tasting portion each to Gu Ding and Liliath. "My first dis.h.!.+ Tell me what you think!"

"Wow, it"s delicious!" Gu Ding was full of praise after only tasting a bite. Immediately, he helped himself to a full plate of meat.

Liliath nodded non-stop while the chopsticks in her hands rapidly shoveled food into her mouth.

The crowd around them started drooling as they watched them eat.

"Everyone, come and try it!" Biggie beckoned the crowd to join them.

The crowd immediately swarmed around them and fought to grab their tableware.

After that, Biggie continued with his second dish, and then his third… In the end, Biggie had made twelve dishes altogether and all of them were incredibly loved by the crowd.

By the time he took off his ap.r.o.n, the food was almost gone, but there was still a pile in front of Gu Ding. Many people were eyeing it, but no one dared grab it away from him, mostly because someone tried to do so and was beaten up by Gu Ding.

"Biggie, come here quickly. We saved some for you, but you need to eat it quickly. These people are crazy! Some of them are s.n.a.t.c.hing food from each other"s bowls!" Gu Ding shouted at Biggie.

When Biggie saw only the bones of the alligator remained, he knew that his meal was a successful one.

He sat next to the two of them and gobbled up the food that they had left for him.

"I"m so full..." Biggie ate so much that his stomach bulged out.

"Lili and I are full, too. I think we"ve accomplished our goal for the Food Festival today." Gu Ding grinned. "I think it"s time we return to the starport."

The three of them stood up and walked toward the parking lot, where they parked their rented car.

"Hey, don"t go yet! The Food Festival"s not over! We haven"t given out the prizes yet!" The organizer shouted at the three of them.

"It"s over for us!" Gu Ding shouted without looking back.

"But Biggie"s the champion cook for this session"s Food Festival. Can you guys wait a little longer? At least until we give out the trophies?" The organizer shouted.

When Biggie heard the words, champion cook, he was stunned.

"Since there"s a prize, there"s no harm collecting it before we leave!" Gu Ding suddenly stopped in his tracks because he thought Biggie would want to savor the win

"Let"s just go, it"s nothing but an empty t.i.tle." Biggie shook his head. He thought that the award was not important.

"This trophy commemorates the birth of our friends.h.i.+p here, and it shows the blessings that your hometown has given to you. Let"s put it in the kitchen!" Gu Ding grinned at Biggie.

"Okay, then." Biggie nodded in agreement upon seeing Gu Ding"s perspective.

Even though it was an award ceremony, there was only one trophy for the champion. After everyone had a taste of Biggie"s cooking, n.o.body bothered trying the dishes made by the other cooks.

After the trophy was given, the three of them returned to the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.

"Let"s go, Neptune!" Gu Ding shouted.

The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p lifted off quickly, and Derisis looked smaller and smaller from the window. Biggie rushed to the window and waved at the green planet, "Bye-bye, Derisis!"

At that moment, the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p suddenly jolted.
