Upgrade Restaurant

After seeing off Bai Meng, Xiao Feng began to tidy up the restaurant.

He then lay on the bed, analyzing his attributes.

[Do you choose to upgrade the restaurant?]

"Yes!"

Xiao Feng made the decision to upgrade the restaurant without hesitation.

[The restaurant upgrade will take 12 hours to complete. Please wait, Host.]

"Another twelve hours?"

Xiao Feng felt a bit disappointed. However, he thought that a good night's sleep should make the time pass quickly. He closed his eyes and drifted into a dream.

Meanwhile, dozens of miles away from Yu Lin City, inside Shelter No. 9, the command center was well secured under Bai Meng's leadership. Shelter No. 9 was one of the many shelters within Yu Lin City.

Inside the shelter, it was pitch dark, with only the command center's lights on.

"Big brother, you're back!"

Bai Zhi walked out as Bai Meng and the others arrived.

"You went to Yu Lin City today?"

Bai Meng immediately questioned his sister after seeing her.

"Yes,"

Bai Zhi hesitated for a moment but eventually nodded,

"You went to perform the mission in Yu Lin City without taking me, so I brought some people and went secretly."

"Do you know about the restaurant in Yu Lin City?"

"I do. We went there today, and the owner of that restaurant is incredibly powerful,"

Bai Zhi recalled.

"When we got there, Black Wolf suggested attacking, and we didn't hesitate to act. But... you can't even imagine what happened. We fired countless bullets from three submachine guns at the owner, but he was unharmed!"

Hearing this, Bai Meng and the others were visibly shocked. Fortunately, they hadn't taken action earlier, or the consequences would be unimaginable.

"And then?"

Bai Meng quickly inquired.

"Seeing that bullets couldn't harm him, I used my ice attribute ability to freeze him. Even after freezing him, we continued to fire submachine guns, but he still couldn't be killed. Finally, Black Wolf threw a hand grenade at his feet. But do you know what happened?"

Bai Zhi looked at her brother with an expression of disbelief, "The grenade didn't harm him at all!"

"I saw this and immediately prepared to escape, but the restaurant's door suddenly locked, and he stepped on me."

"Finally, the owner gave us two options: either Black Wolf and his team had to capture a Bloodfang Wild Boar or die. We chose the first option and then he made a bet with me, saying that Black Wolf and his team wouldn't come to rescue me."

"Near dusk, Black Wolf and his team managed to bring the Bloodfang Wild Boar. But Black Wolf was severely injured by the wild boar."

"Seeing Black Wolf on the brink of death, the owner actually made a dish using the wild boar's kunckle, and it's a miraculous dish! Black Wolf, after eating it, was miraculously healed. That kunckle can actually heal injuries!"

Hearing this, everyone in the command center was filled with shock. If someone else had said these words, they wouldn't have believed it. But coming from Bai Zhi's mouth and considering what the restaurant's owner had said, they believed this story.

Especially in a world full of crises.

"We must not provoke this mysterious owner anymore!"

Bai Meng breathed deeply after a while and gave instructions to everyone.

"Spread the news about the restaurant in Yu Lin City, and tell all adventurers that they must not provoke the owner of this restaurant . If they don't listen, they are on their own!"

"Yes!"

Someone immediately responded.

"Alright, it's getting late. Everyone, go rest!"

Bai Meng waved his hand and dismissed everyone.

After everyone left, Bai Zhi suddenly asked, "Big brother, how did things go?"

Hearing this, Bai Meng shook his head in frustration, "We failed. Yu Lin City has at least three Level 3 zombies, and we're no match for them. It seems like we won't have a chance to get the mutation potion."

"Recently, I've noticed people from Shelter No. 8 frequently going in and out of Yu Lin City. Do you think they might know about the mutation potion?"

Bai Zhi asked with suspicion.

"We can't be sure about that. But we must be extra cautious and monitor every move in Yu Lin City at all times," Bai Meng cautioned.

"I understand, big brother!"

...

The next morning, Xiao Feng was awakened by the system's alert sound.

[Restaurant upgrade successful. Current restaurant level: Level 2]

[Level 2 restaurant unlocked skill: Energy Recovery]

[Energy Recovery: All targets within the Great Potential Restaurant's area have their energy recovery rate increased by 20%]

[After upgrading to Level 2, the restaurant undergoes renovation and expansion, with an area of up to 150 square meters.]

The continuous alert sounds felt like wonderful music, waking Xiao Feng from his slumber. When he opened his eyes, he saw the dramatic transformation of his surroundings.

His original small bedroom, which was about ten square meters, had turned into a room of around 30 square meters. Even his bed had changed. The sunlight outside illuminated the immaculate, shiny floor, creating a radiant atmosphere.

"My goodness, the restaurant was renovated so beautifully overnight!"

Xiao Feng exclaimed with amazement as he put on his clothes and excitedly walked out. The restaurant's area yesterday was only about 60-70 square meters. After the upgrade, it had expanded to approximately 150 square meters.

After leaving the bedroom, Xiao Feng saw that the stairs leading to the first floor had been replaced with exquisite red wooden stairs. He walked downstairs slowly and found that the lobby area had expanded to about 100 square meters.

The previous three shabby tables had vanished, replaced by ten rectangular dining tables covered with floral cloths. Furthermore, there was a cash register on the side placed on top of a display case, though it was currently empty. It could be used to display items such as cigarettes and alcohol if possible.

Xiao Feng then turned and headed for the kitchen. What used to be a dark and dingy kitchen had become bright and clean, with a renewed stove, spotless utensils, and various kitchen equipment.

"Amazing! It was definitely worth the 100,000 energy points spent!"

Xiao Feng exclaimed with excitement. After washing up, he decided to get some ingredients as soon as possible. Otherwise, he wouldn't have anything to serve if guests came.

With a basket hanging from his side, he loaded his upgradable Barrett onto his back. However, the Barrett only had ten rounds, so he had to use them sparingly.

"But I wonder how to obtain more Barrett ammunition. The system hasn't provided any hints!"

Xiao Feng muttered to himself as he left.
