[Gourmand Dungeon]: I've collected some cola. Anyone want a drink!
[Gourmand Dungeon]: It's already in the Red Envelope. Take it yourselves if you want some.
[dark souls iii]: Hehe, coming, coming!
[Sekiro]: Woohoo! Cola!
[Nioh 2]: You two are pretty fast.
[clash of clans]: That's an inverted sentence right there.
[Gourmand Dungeon]: Act normal, you guys are scaring me.
[toriko]: The Chat Group Red Envelope is really great. Infinite storage space and a state of complete stasis. Now I don't have to buy special Gourmet Boxes to collect ingredients. So convenient.
[Gourmand Dungeon]: It's more than just convenient. How should I put it... the Red Envelope storage is quite idealistic. Like the cola I just stored—I only thought about storing the cola, so only the cola was stored. Any dust or sweat that might have touched it wasn't included. It's like the cola was purified once.
[Gourmand Dungeon]: Same with dirty clothes. You store the clothes, put them in, and when you take them out, they've directly become clean clothes.
[Gourmand Dungeon]: But when you store the clothes, the buttons and accessories are also stored. So this Red Envelope storage is really idealistic; it depends entirely on the individual's thoughts.
[toriko]: Hiss... is it really that strong?
[dark souls iii]: Those of us who were the first to join the group haven't fully researched the Chat Group yet. Anyway, there's plenty of time, just dig into it slowly.
[elden ring]: Exactly. This Chat Group doesn't come with a manual or anything. It all depends on whether you can discover things yourself.
[resident evil] @[Gourmand Dungeon]: Since you're in the toriko world and you're a chef, you should learn those miraculous knife techniques. Things like Food Skills and Dark Techniques are incredibly overpowered later on.
[Gourmand Dungeon]: Definitely. I've already made contact with Komatsu. As long as I stick with Komatsu, Food Luck might even favor me.
[resident evil]: Also, Old Man Jiro's Knocking. Later on, there's the Grand Knocking that can pause the entire Earth—it's basically stopping time. Gourmet, if you have nothing else to do, you can go try to learn that.
[toriko]: Easier said than done... He's Jiro the Knocking Master after all. How could Grand Knocking be learned so easily? Even his grandson only managed to use Grand Knocking under the guidance of his soul form.
[toriko]: Forget it, I'll find some time to bring a gift and ask to study. Although it's unlikely I'll learn Grand Knocking, I can still learn ordinary Knocking. It just depends on whether he's willing to teach me.
[Sekiro]: Bring more alcohol. Old folks like them love to drink. Maybe if he's happy, he'll teach you.
[clash of clans]: I just thought of a question. We all have the same face. Zombie, when you and Gourmet are together, doesn't anyone feel suspicious?
[Gourmand Dungeon]: Do you think I'm stupid? I fine-tuned my features and facial muscles. Now I look at most fifty percent similar. It's not like look-alikes don't exist, let alone only being fifty percent similar.
[dark souls iii]: I thought it was because of your purple skin that no one noticed (ω)
[Gourmand Dungeon]: Fuck! How many times do I have to say it? It's light purple, not pure purple!
[clash of clans]: Are you an art student or something... why distinguish colors with such detail.
[clash of clans]:...[clash of clans]: Oh fuck, I almost forgot. We really ARE art students.
The Xia Yus:...It would have been fine if it wasn't mentioned, but now all the Xia Yus remembered. They really were art students; during the college entrance exams back then, they all took the art joint exam first.
Sketching, speed-drawing, and coloring—the painful memories of intensive art training flooded back into their minds.
[dark souls iii] @[clash of clans]: You bastard, why did you have to make me remember? Wuwuwu, it's over, I can't forget that painful memory now.
[clash of clans]: It was our... youth, after all.
[dark souls iii]: Everyone, spit before you leave. Heh~ tui!
[Sekiro]: Pei!
[Nioh 2]: Tui!
[Gourmand Dungeon]: He~ tui~
...marvel world, Talos Company, Chairman's Office.
Marvel Xia Yu slumped in his office chair, boredly browsing through the documents submitted by his subordinates.
The data was very dull, so Xia Yu threw it aside after looking for a while. Anyway, this company was handled by Oscorp and Otto together; it didn't need him, the mascot chairman.
Since Oscorp and Otto had both become his subordinates, he had poached them both into Talos Company. Of course, this was only in private; on the surface, Oscorp and Talos Company were merely in a deep partnership.
As for exactly how deep? That was hard to say.
Furthermore, when Norman Osborn saw that Otto was also his subordinate, he very sincerely apologized to Otto. However, due to the long-standing oppression, Otto did not easily forgive Osborn.
But their relationship had eased slightly. Currently, Otto was in charge of the R&D department, while Osborn multi-tasked, managing both Talos Company and Oscorp.
Naturally, since his Talos Company went public, it had faced many threats. However, those who threatened him were silenced before they could shout for two days.
After all, on the surface, there was Mayor Osborn and Oscorp, and in the shadows, there was Martin Li, the mob boss.
If it wasn't a personal threat, it was an Osborn warning. If it was a personal threat, then naturally, it was Martin Li's job.
With the strengthening potions and high-tech equipment he provided, Martin Li had replaced Kingpin as the new Kingpin of Crime in a short time.
Now that both the light and dark sides were his people, what could others possibly use to fight him?
He wasn't afraid at all.
Sigh, he never thought there would be a day he'd agree with the old man Ancient One. That old guy was right—you really need a background to survive out there. Only when your background is big enough will others listen to you.
Although the true background of Talos Company was himself, only particularly serious problems required him to act. Solving small problems using the backgrounds of both the legal and criminal worlds was indeed satisfying.
Thinking of this, Xia Yu wondered what the old man Ancient One was doing while he took out a large cup of rich cola from the Red Envelope.
But just as he was about to drink, a vigorous palm suddenly grabbed his arm and snatched the cola from his hand with an irresistible technique.
"Slurp slurp~ Gulp gulp~ Ahhh!"
"Delicious!!"
"How dare you not offer such good stuff to me? Do you still want to hang around in Kamar-Taj?"
Hearing that familiar, irreverent voice, Xia Yu's face was covered in black lines. He was about to say, 'Then I'll leave?' but as soon as he looked up, he saw Ancient One's eyes filled with a murderous aura.
"Gulp..." Xia Yu's throat moved as he said very submissively, "Reporting to the kind-hearted, amiable, immortal-like, white-haired Archmage Ancient One, next time I will definitely offer it to you first, elder."
Hearing this, Ancient One nodded in satisfaction, and his ferocious gaze turned back into a kind and amiable one in the blink of an eye.
Xia Yu: "..."
Who knew this big-eyed, thick-browed old fellow was actually a face-changing artist?
