Great Potential Restaurant

"Boss, these buns of yours are pretty good, what kind of meat is in them?"

"Zombie meat!"

"Yuck!"

"Haha, just kidding, it's made from second-tier Razorback Mountain Goat!"

...

In the fallen city of Yu Lin, inside a restaurant called "Great Potential," there was a burst of laughter and joy.

Outside, there were wandering zombies, aimlessly roaming the streets, and abandoned cars scattered about.

What's strange is that the sounds from the restaurant didn't seem to attract the zombies.

Inside and outside the restaurant, two entirely different environments coexisted.

"Wow, my energy is completely restored!"

"The effect of these buns is indeed amazing. Now we can finally go out to scavenge!"

A few people stood up and called out to the kitchen simultaneously.

"Boss, pack two more baskets of buns. We can use them to restore energy when we kill zombies!"

"Sure!"

A voice came from the kitchen, and a man wearing an apron and flip-flops walked out. He was the owner of this restaurant, Xiao Feng.

"Your buns, a total of 300 energy!"

"So expensive!"

The three people widened their eyes.

"Second-tier Razorback Mountain Goat meat has a great effect, as you can see. Eating one can restore a significant amount of energy! Hunting Razorback Mountain Goats is not easy!"

"Alright!"

The three people reluctantly paid the money, looked at the countless zombies outside, took a deep breath, and went out.

After serving these customers, Xiao Feng remembered a notification.

[Mission Complete: Energy income from Razorback Mountain Goat meat buns has reached 1000.]

[Mission Reward: Unlock Dish: Braised Bloodfang Boar Knuckle, Skill: Butcher's Precision]

[Mission Issued: Achieve 10,000 in sales of Braised Bloodfang Boar Knuckle .]

Three consecutive notification sounds rang out, and Xiao Feng opened his attribute panel.

Host: Xiao Feng

Level: First-tier Evolutionary [Upgrade Requirement: 1000 energy]

Skills: Culinary Mastery, Butcher's Precision

Restaurant Level: Level 1 [Upgrade Requirement: 100,000 energy]

Restaurant Menu:

[Razorback Mountain Goat Meat Bun: Restores a small amount of energy, priced at 20 energy]

[Braised Bloodfang Boar Forearm: Restores a small amount of health, significantly increases attack power for 30 minutes, priced at 3000 energy]

...

Satisfied, Xiao Feng closed the attribute panel, cleaned the table, and then closed the door.

A few days ago, Xiao Feng had crossed into this world filled with zombies and mutant creatures. He had also gained the system for this gourmet restaurant.

What was baffling was that the restaurant's location was right in the center of a fallen city.

There were zombies everywhere, but this restaurant had absolute defense. Even setting off fireworks inside wouldn't attract zombies from the outside. Furthermore, the restaurant's defenses were incredibly robust, seemingly impervious even to a nuclear bomb.

Anyway, Xiao Feng had encountered searching teams from nearby shelters over the past few days. His restaurant had been discovered by these people.

After several days, Xiao Feng had finally completed the first mission issued by the system.

However, the second mission, to make Braised Bloodfang Boar Knuckle, was a bit challenging.

The Bloodfang Boar was a second-tier mutant, and it was tough to deal with.

Xiao Feng was only a first-tier evolutionary, and taking down the boar would be quite challenging.

Although the Razorback Mountain Goat was also a second-tier mutant, Xiao Feng had managed to force it off a cliff the last time he hunted one.

Moreover, Xiao Feng was a culinary-based evolutionary.

An evolutionary with the Culinary Mastery skill?

That was unique!

But, the food he made wasn't just for filling one's stomach; it could also provide additional attribute boosts. Many ingredients had attribute enhancements, and when Xiao Feng prepared them, he could maximize their attributes.

With these thoughts in mind, Xiao Feng entered the kitchen, took up his kitchen knife, and headed out.

However, he soon stopped in his tracks. In the distance, he saw a little girl in a white dress. She had her back turned to him.

Her white dress was stained with blood, her hair was disheveled, and she was holding a brown teddy bear plushie.

Based on Xiao Feng's understanding of the city after these days, he was sure there were no other living people in the city. And this little girl...

He began to retreat cautiously.

Crunch!

But at that moment, Xiao Feng accidentally stepped on a soda can. Suddenly, the little girl turned her head.

Crunch, crunch!

Xiao Feng's pupils constricted. The little girl's head had turned around 180 degrees.

Her eye sockets were empty, and her head dangled as she slowly lifted it.

She grinned, revealing sharp teeth.

"Uncle, have you seen my teddy bear?"

What took Xiao Feng by surprise was that the little girl could speak. Her voice was unnerving.

"Run!"

Without any hesitation, Xiao Feng immediately turned and ran.

But at that moment, a massive shadow loomed overhead.

Turning around, Xiao Feng saw the little girl tossing her teddy bear plushie. In mid-air, it transformed into a zombie, over three meters tall, covered in rotting flesh.

"What the hell! return return!"

Xiao Feng was close to tears. He immediately activated the restaurant's privilege to return inside the restaurant.
