[Sci-Fi Apocalypse + Wasteland Survival + Farming and Leveling Up + Cunning Protagonist]
In a post-apocalyptic wasteland overrun by mutants, human civilization huddles in cramped shelters and survivor settlements, fighting over scarce food and resources. Then a string of strange recipes suddenly appears on Chu Feng’s retinas:
[The key to cooking mutant hyena lies in preparing the raw meat. Thoroughly mix the sliced mutant hyena meat with wood ash and cement dust...]
[The mutant pika, a distant cousin of the mutant rat, is only edible above the neck. The usual preparation is... Unscrupulous traders like to mix it in with duck necks and sell them...]
[The six-eared man-eating rabbit has been permeated with lethal radiation. Decent workers aren’t advised to eat it. The tiny piece of meat below its neck is the only safe part. Of course, you could also treat your boss to some spicy rabbit heads.]
[Braised mutant hyena. Bonus effect: For every kilogram of mutant hyena meat consumed, permanently gain 2% agility, up to a maximum increase of 70%.]
[Stir-fried mutant boar. Bonus effect: For every three kilograms of braised mutant boar consumed, permanently gain 5% strength, up to a maximum increase of 100%.]
And eating makes you stronger?!
…
Braised mutant bear paw, lamb tripe and slime-mold hot pot, charcoal-grilled deathclaw legs, soy-braised Tyrant cores, cumin-seasoned monster ribs, deep-fried devil moth pupae...
Chu Feng flips up the holographic visor on his tactical helmet and calmly says, as he looks at the order, “If the customers placing orders aren’t providing the ingredients, then this menu is going to cost extra!”
I can only give his cheat system three stars. It doesn't provide third-party protection; the protagonist's safety depends entirely on fate (the author). The cheat system only provides a magically reasonable recipe and the ability to identify ingredients. This recipe is so reasonable that anyone can learn it; there's no key technology the protagonist can hold onto.
Goodness, the protagonist is Chu Feng, Chu Guang? Boulder City, the Post-War Committee, Deathclaws—this game is just too realistic! Hurry up and head to Dawn City! 😏
There aren't any detachable, gigantic chainsaws or giant drills that can be mounted on the exoskeleton arms? The former is effective against cutting giant objects, while the latter has strong armor-piercing capabilities; pierce the armor first, then cut. Build a basement on the mountain using identifiable spiral meat grinder vents as passageways.
Writing a book is hard work, five stars. Warnings cleared: post-apocalyptic + time travel + radiation elements + food + cheat system. A post-apocalyptic setting with a food-themed cheat system, a plot-driven, growth-oriented protagonist. Overall, it's alright, the plot connections are slightly contradictory, but the imaginative premise is a plus. Hopefully, the quality will remain consistent.
We hope the author will incorporate food technology systems, such as: discovering fragments of a hydrogen fusion-powered rice cooker, an automatic coffee machine, a snack vending machine, or an automated raw material processing workbench. There's a reason the rating is so low. It delves too deeply into the background of human society.
A culinary journey in peacetime 😅
The worldview is very similar to "This Game Is Too Realistic".
The article doesn't specify whether the recipe bonuses only apply to recipes made by the main character.
The writing style is decent, and the subject matter is good, but there are a lot of female characters.
4 stars is too high, but I still gave it 4 stars. "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime"—the portrayal of human nature is a bit too optimistic.
