Weird Game: My Talent is a Bit Strong

The restaurant kitchen.

Fan Chen's expression brightened upon hearing the ghost chef's words:

Did I trigger a career selection quest?

The materials Fan Chen was looking at included some information about strange professions.

He thoroughly researched them all.

This includes the three types mentioned by the ghost chef.

The "Butcher" is a combat-type class that can control malevolent energy in battle. The stronger the malevolent energy, the stronger the Butcher's blade.

It ranks among the top combat professions.

The "Cleaner" is a support class that allows players to detect subtle supernatural auras and remove them.

"Chef" is also a support class, and players have the ability to cook food with special effects.

"Obtaining a bizarre profession isn't easy, and I've actually triggered three of them." Fan Chen was secretly delighted.

"Have you decided which one to make?" the ghost chef urged, seeing that Fan Chen was still hesitating.

"Hmm, I choose the Butcher."

Fan Chen made his choice.

Although he possesses the talent of a Soul Eater, he still needs sufficient combat power in the bizarre game.

Even if they couldn't harm Fan Chen, being surrounded and bitten by the starving ghosts was disgusting enough to make him die of nausea.

Moreover, some high-level ghosts not only possess bizarre attack methods, but also have powerful physical damage capabilities.

"Come here, all you have to do is chop up all the meat in the freezer," the ghost chef said, leading Fan Chen into the kitchen and pointing to the cutting board beside him.

A rusty black butcher's knife was stuck in the chopping board, and a sharp aura emanated from it.

Next to the cutting board was a freezer; the door was open, and cold air was coming out.

Fan Chen approached somewhat nervously, reached out and grasped the butcher's knife, then lifted it up.

This butcher's knife is quite heavy, weighing nearly ten pounds.

[Warning: This is a butcher's knife!]

Spirit Level: 3

Effects: It has slaughtered countless beings and possesses a malevolent aura that can amplify the user's attack power. However, this malevolent aura can also negatively impact the user. Its immense weight is a significant burden on the wielder.

Information about the butcher's knife appeared before Fan Chen's eyes.

The level of an item refers to its supernatural level. This butcher's knife has a higher supernatural level than that cleaver.

Holding the butcher's knife, Fan Chen had just tested its feel when another notification appeared before his eyes.

[Reminder: You have triggered the Butcher's Trial mission!]

Objective: Please chop all the meat in the freezer into small pieces.

You have been affected by the evil energy of the butcher's knife!

Spirit +2

Health +2

Life limit +1

Spirit +3

Psychic +3

...]

Only by completing the professional trials can one obtain the corresponding bizarre profession.

The trial involved resisting and enduring the negative effects of the butcher's knife and completing the task of chopping meat.

Fan Chen possesses the talent of a Spirit Eater, making the professional trials a piece of cake for him.

A look of delight flashed in his eyes as he took a rock-hard piece of meat from the freezer and placed it on the cutting board.

"Hiss, could this be human flesh?"

"No, judging by its appearance, it should be pork."

Having considerable life experience, Fan Chen discerned the situation and made a judgment.

Moreover, he is a doctor and has a thorough understanding of human tissues.

boom!boom!

Then, Fan Chen swung the heavy butcher's knife and began chopping the frozen meat.

To complete this trial, players must not only resist the influence of malevolent energy.

Wielding a butcher's knife also consumes a great deal of energy.

This kind of consumption is also a strange effect, which can quickly deplete the player's stamina.

But for Fan Chen:

Endurance +1

Endurance +2

Endurance cap +1

……

He didn't feel tired at all; on the contrary, his movements became more and more skillful, and his strength became more and more abundant.

"The trial missions have a greater impact on physical attributes than using that murderous aura cleaver!"

"You can also gain a lot of buffs!"

"The Soul Eater talent is just so satisfying!"

Fan Chen was secretly delighted.

However, viewers in the live stream felt sorry for Fan Chen's choice.

"How foolish of him! He actually chose the most difficult trial task out of the three!"

"With the abilities of a newcomer, it's simply impossible for them to complete the trial smoothly!"

Even level 5 players will find it difficult to pass the Butcher's Trial mission!

"He's probably going to die in this trial."

"I just thought he was somewhat capable..."

The difficulty of the trial missions for combat classes far exceeds that for support classes.

Based on their experience, it was absolutely impossible for Fan Chen, a newcomer, to complete such a difficult trial task!

Even Li Qian was somewhat surprised by Fan Chen's choice of the Butcher Trial and showed a hint of worry.

At this moment, the lights in the live stream started flashing and then quickly went out.

Instead, a sinister crimson hue appeared.

The red moon has descended once again.

The scene inside the kitchen had changed, becoming more decayed and dilapidated.

The ghost chef's appearance also changed; a horrifying wound appeared on its chest and abdomen, revealing its churning internal organs.

This is what it looked like when it died.

The waiter, who also looked "dead," had returned to the kitchen to avoid the starving ghosts entering the restaurant.

From inside the lobby, a dense murmur of "Hungry, so hungry" could be heard.

There were also death row inmates shouting and yelling.

Fan Chen paused slightly, glanced at the ghost chef, and then continued with his work.

Having gone through the ordeal of anatomy class, he remained calm.

boom!boom!

He took out the frozen meat, brandished the butcher's knife, and chopped it into pieces, seemingly tireless and unaffected.

He even started humming a little tune.

The viewers in the live stream couldn't help but admire him.

Regardless of his abilities, this kid's mentality is truly extraordinary.

Entering the haunted restaurant feels just like coming home; there's absolutely no fear.

Is this some kind of special buff for death row inmates?

But other death row inmates aren't like that.

Many viewers in Fan Chen's live stream left to follow the movements of other death row inmates.

Li Hu's live stream had the most viewers.

When the red moon descended again, the machete stuck in the wall indeed reappeared.

Li Hu had already gripped the machete in his hand immediately.

He displayed incredible power, wielding his cleaver and cutting down the approaching starving ghosts.

The other death row inmates, hiding behind him, looked on with encouragement.

Veins were visible on Li Hu's arms and face, and his eyes were a faint reddish hue.

"This appearance... indicates the awakening of a special talent!"

"He seems to be able to use the machete without being affected... it must be a talent for controlling malevolent energy!"

"Among the new players this time, two have become incredibly talented!"

"He's brave enough and knows how to protect others immediately, even better than that Fan Chen."

A barrage of comments flashed across the live stream screen.

Inside the kitchen of the Red Rose Restaurant.

Fan Chen focused intently on chopping the meat, his movements becoming increasingly skilled.

This proficiency is not merely a matter of being familiar with the job, but rather a result of professional expertise.

It will enable him to quickly learn how to use a butcher's knife.

When the butcher's knife strikes, it can accurately hit the target.

It can also concentrate the force of the chopping strike on a single point, maximizing its effect.

Soon, when he finished chopping a piece of frozen meat and wanted to get some fresh meat, he found the freezer was completely empty.

[Reminder: You have completed the Butcher Trial quest and successfully obtained the Butcher profession.]

Rating: 1

Skill: Disembowelment (A fatal blow delivered with all your might! Currently at lv1. Killing a target with malevolent aura will increase skill proficiency.)

Note: Your body has been enhanced by malevolent energy, increasing your physical strength and power. Using items containing malevolent energy can effectively resist side effects.

You have obtained the Butcher's exclusive item: the Butcher's Knife!

A notification appeared in front of Fan Chen's eyes.

He then felt a faint aura of malevolence envelop his body, making him feel lighter and stronger.

"The Butcher profession is one that controls malevolent energy."

"A fatal blow delivered after draining stamina!"

"Killing targets possessing malevolent energy will increase skill proficiency... Targets possessing malevolent energy?"

"Well, after acquiring the profession, this butcher's knife became my possession."

Fan Chen was somewhat surprised to perceive the changes within himself.

With a flick of his wrist, he put the butcher's knife into his inventory.

Only items that truly belong to the player can be stored in the inventory.

There was no way to retrieve the machete from before.

"You've finished your work and paid for your meal. You can leave now," the ghostly chef, now looking like a dead man, said emotionlessly.

Fan Chen's eyes flickered, and he suddenly asked, "Excuse me, may I do other work?"

Not only did he successfully complete the Butcher job quest, he also plans to try out the other two job quests.

Anyway, I'm just idling around.

Only children make choices; he wants it all!
