Seven days have passed since the battle at Cloud Star, and everyone is on their way to Wuyuan Star aboard the captured spaceship. Counting the days, they are almost there.
During breakfast, the students stirred their bowls of compressed food, with some complaining that they had had enough of this life, while others reassured them that they would soon arrive at Wuyuan Star, and the monotonous days would come to an end.
Time is the best healing ointment. For them, who only half understood the situation, the recovery from psychological scars was swift; the atmosphere of sadness had already faded, and smiles returned to their faces.
The most noticeable table was where Lin Ta and others sat—Dream Source, Fatty, Lu Liang, Big Cat Senior, and Snow Dance Senior—all happily eating breakfast.
"I have good news for you all. We'll arrive at Wuyuan Star this afternoon. The Control Room has already estimated the distance," Big Cat Senior said as he stirred his compressed food and took a bite, looking like he wasn't fond of it either.
"Great! Finally leaving this place. When we get there, you have to make us a big feast!" Fatty exclaimed. Having barely eaten anything lately, he was eagerly anticipating a hearty meal.
Fatty's words sparked longing looks in everyone's eyes as they collectively turned to Lin, making him feel a chill run down his spine.
"Don't look at me like that..."
The more they looked at him this way, the more uncomfortable he felt. Even someone with Lin's cold personality sensed something was off.
After a moment of silence, Lin finally couldn't hold back any longer. He shrugged and said, "Alright, since you all want a big meal so badly, I'll grant your wish."
Everyone immediately cheered, while Lin raised his hand to calm them down. As thoughts raced through his mind, an idea flashed in his head. He continued, "Since everyone is tired of this compressed food, how about I cook a big meal for you all today?"
"What do you mean?" someone asked.
"I mean everyone will get a share. I'm going to prepare a special feast."
After a brief silence, Fatty scratched his head and asked, "Can you do it, bro? This is a weight for thousands; how long will it take you?"
"You just need to trust me. Come on, everyone, let's get to work."
This was completely unexpected for everyone. Lin Yi treated his kitchen like a sacred place, and few were allowed to help him. Today, however, even someone like Lü Liang was in the kitchen. Lin Ye couldn't figure out what had changed in him.
Lin had his reasons for doing this, and this idea even changed his previous stubbornness.
Ever since that night when Lin and Bai Quexin woke up from their drunken stupor, everyone felt that Lin was different. They couldn't pinpoint exactly what had changed, but they sensed a significant shift in his demeanor.
Lin had found his sense of chivalry: being able to protect his companions and enjoy their time together made him feel he could go further on the culinary path, and that was enough.
Excessive stubbornness would only become a stumbling block on his path to growth. Understanding this allowed Lin De to grow rapidly; that change in demeanor was a sign of maturity.
...
Let's get to it. Lin wasn't one to procrastinate, so the kitchen on the Mother Ship became lively as he and Fatty began preparing lunch.
Most of these people had never been in a kitchen before, so they were clumsily doing odd jobs. The worst off was Lü Liang, a once proud figure, who found himself huddled in a corner peeling potatoes.
Surprisingly, Dream Source impressed Lin. Although she had never worked in a kitchen before, she picked things up astonishingly fast, much like her martial arts talent.
The easiest job fell to Fatty, who took charge of the live streaming for three people under the guise of broadcasting. Essentially, he just had to talk while wandering around without doing any actual work.
Days had passed since the battle at Cloud Star ended, and the audience hadn't seen Lin. Now that they saw such a cheerful Lin again, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, online, the exploits of Lin Ta had already spread like wildfire. A group of players who hadn't even reached level ten managed to defeat Bloodthirsty Fang; this incident became quite the sensation.
The downfall of Bloodfang marked the first significant impact for Lin Ta in establishing their reputation in the Primitive Star Domain. Although Bloodfang was notorious, it must be acknowledged that their reputation was still considerable; they were well-known even in the Primitive Star Domain.
The visitors who came out of curiosity caused a significant surge in traffic for the Hero Platform, doubling the overall visitor count and boosting the popularity of the three individuals.
Both Fatty and Lü Liang broke through the ten million mark, while Lin was advancing towards thirty million popularity, taking another step closer to becoming a star streamer.
The breakthrough of ten million popularity granted Lin an opportunity to open a gift pack, but he was too busy cooking to check it at the moment.
As time went by, the kitchen work gradually fell into a rhythm, and many classmates volunteered to help when they heard Lin was preparing a feast for them.
Jealousy vanished at that moment; the classmates no longer blamed Lin, and Lin Ye had come to terms with everything that had happened with Cloud Star.
In short, the atmosphere in the kitchen could best be described as harmonious.
Chef Lin's kitchen knife danced like a butterfly, and the spatula moved like a dragon emerging from water. His culinary display was an embodiment of art. Although his classmates knew Lin was an exceptional cook, they were still amazed by the scene before them.
"The first dish, Mapo Tofu, is ready!"
As the aroma filled the kitchen, Fatty chimed in enthusiastically. He looked at the large pot in front of Lin Mian and felt a deep admiration.
Plates and bowls were used by everyone to serve the dishes. Lin continued to be busy as dish after dish was brought to the table, stirring up everyone's appetite as if there were hunger bugs rolling in their stomachs.
After a flurry of activity, it wasn't until one o'clock in the afternoon that Lin finished all the dishes. He made sure that all his classmates could enjoy every dish he prepared.
The result was predictable; everyone eagerly dug into the feast and praised Lin endlessly.
After the meal, most of the boys slumped in their chairs, patting their bellies in satisfaction, while the girls were more reserved but also rubbed their stomachs, indicating they had eaten quite a bit as well.
Seeing that it was the right moment, Fatty stood up while picking his teeth, cleared his throat to attract everyone's attention. "Gentlemen, today our brother has put in a lot of effort for you all. Since we’ve eaten from his hands, shouldn’t we give him some applause and let him say a few words?"
With Fatty stirring up excitement, everyone joined in cheering. Lin didn't refuse; he indeed had something to say.
Clearing his throat and calming the crowd, Lin raised his hand to stop the applause, then took a deep breath and bowed to everyone.
"All the gentlemen present here are my brothers and sisters who have shared hardships with me. We can be comrades in life and death. Everything that happened on Cloud Star is now behind us, so I hope everyone can let go of it and forgive me for the trouble I caused."
The expressions of those below varied; some were silent, some looked displeased, while others responded cheerfully, "Brother, we stopped caring a long time ago!"
Lin pressed his lips together, wanting to smile, but ultimately did not manage to form that curve.
"Let's not dwell on what happened on Cloud Star; let it pass. What I want to say is that we are about to arrive at Wuyuan Star. Everyone will soon go their separate ways, and it may be difficult to gather like this again. But I hope you all remember the days we spent together. We are forever comrades!"
After a brief silence, waves of applause erupted from within the Mother Ship.
Outside the Mother Ship, a green planet slowly revealed its appearance, with two red and blue satellites orbiting around it, creating an exceptionally beautiful scene.
That was Wuyuan Star. After many twists and turns, Lin and the others finally arrived here.
Wuyuan Star, Lin has come!
Are you ready to welcome it?
