SUP Chapter 46: Cousin, You Can't Handle It!
Added 2025-08-03 09:13:19 +0000 UTCSo angry!
Really extremely angry!
The selfishness of human nature was now fully displayed in Ian's behavior. He had originally thought that only he in the entire universe could sleepwalk through "wonderland," but it turned out that having nightmares wasn't just his exclusive benefit?
Who could understand this!
Family!
A second "Alice" had appeared!
Ian felt very pitiful, having actually encountered such a trashy cheat system! His anger value instantly maxed out and he rushed forward, wanting to grab the other person's collar through the glass window.
However, after frantically clawing a few times.
"Damn it! Come closer!"
Because Ian's arms weren't long enough, he couldn't pull at the other person through the window opening that was only as big as a head. The hunched chef even struck his hands several times with a ladle.
Of course.
Only a few strikes.
Ian then grabbed his ladle.
"What are you? Why hasn't your soul accepted my baptism?" The chef engaged in a ladle tug-of-war with Ian, and while pulling, he also voiced his inquiry.
Clearly confused about why Ian hadn't fallen into the same "puppet" state as Kara.
"Irredeemable soul!"
The chef made his judgment about Ian's "abnormal" state.
"You're the one who's irredeemable! Baptism, you like baptism so much, right? I'll give you a proper baptism right now!" Ian raised his fist to smash the glass window blocking him.
"Move aside, it's time to eat, I need to eat." Kara, with unfocused eyes and a dazed expression, squeezed in front of Ian at this moment. She had been queuing behind Ian the whole time.
Now she clearly looked like she couldn't wait any longer.
She stared at the green, oily food in the serving window, constantly swallowing saliva, with a vacant smile hanging at the corners of her mouth, her eyes revealing eager anticipation.
"Yes... this is correct..." The chef nodded with satisfaction, took out a new ladle from behind his buttocks, ladled a bowl of thick soup bubbling with eerie green foam, and handed it to Kara.
Kara dazedly took the soup bowl, slowly lifted it up, and was about to drink it.
"No, cousin! You can't handle what's in that bowl!" Ian strongly suspected that the eerie chef had taken Gul'dan's script, just like how he had gained the Hulk's power.
"I'm hungry!"
Kara struggled with Ian over the soup bowl with unfocused eyes. Her strength was naturally greater than Ian's. Seeing that Kara was about to bring the soup bowl to her lips, in desperation Ian could only activate his super intelligence.
"I'll do it! I can handle it!" Ian looked at his skill panel. The Berserker skill options included many skills that sacrificed negative effects in exchange for temporary strength boosts.
And he still had one unused occupation skill point. Facts proved that the habit of keeping something in reserve was indeed crucial. Seeing Kara about to fall victim, Ian stretched his head forward and directly slurped up all the soup in Kara's bowl.
"The taste is actually not bad?"
Ian was extremely surprised and smacked his lips.
Something that looked and smelled disgusting actually had an endless aftertaste when drunk?
"I get it! Stinky tofu! A brand new version of stinky tofu!" Ian felt he had deciphered the other party's soup recipe. At the same time, a new status appeared on his status panel.
[Blood Curse]
A green-looking status that would cause Ian's body to slowly mutate and gradually erode Ian's mind, leading him toward a fallen and mad ending.
"That's right... For victory! For the new world!" The chef wasn't annoyed by Ian's action of snatching Kara's soup bowl. Instead, he showed a relieved smile as if this was how it should be.
"You also want the world to feel pain?"
Ian smacked his lips, not feeling that he had fallen.
Of course, the physical changes were visible to the naked eye.
Ian looked down at his hands and found green energy surging under his skin, though the energy wasn't particularly abundant yet. It was like it was dormant within, accumulating strength.
[You are suffering fel corruption, experience +1]
It must be said.
This was absolutely the most serious negative status Ian had obtained since acquiring the [Berserker] occupation. An ordinary person might already be panicking with fear.
"About to level up! Tasty! Love it!" Seeing the chef ladle another bowl of soup for the waiting Kara, Ian immediately snatched the new bowl and tilted his head back to gulp it down.
Kara showed annoyance at having her food taken.
"Wait, you..."
The chef looked at the greedy Ian with astonishment.
"To have such talent, good, good, good. I need devout warriors with great potential like you." Seeing Ian drink the second bowl with evident satisfaction.
After the chef came to his senses, he was also extremely delighted.
He hurriedly ladled soup.
Bowl after bowl, he handed them to Ian.
"Glug glug glug~"
"Glug glug glug~"
"Glug glug glug~"
Ian naturally accepted all comers.
As time passed.
He drank over a dozen bowls of green soup in succession. The chef, who had originally become increasingly excited, gradually realized something was wrong. Logically, the boy in front of him should have already begun his life form transformation.
"You're not right!"
The chef angrily stopped dispensing the green soup.
"What? Stingy?" Seeing this, Ian looked around and directly pulled over a water pipe from the corner, skillfully inserting it through the window into the soup pot below.
Although [Blood Curse] showed that it would affect sanity, he didn't feel himself becoming mad, nor had he unlocked his Hulk form from drinking a few more sips.
He hadn't even gained any strength! What happened to becoming big and strong after drinking the soup! As a Berserker with severely skewed attributes, Ian had the resolve to sacrifice intelligence to make his strength exceed his mental stats.
Unfortunately, the heavens didn't understand him.
"Tell me! Did you water down the demon blood! Damn it!" While chugging "ton ton ton," Ian took out his dagger and began frantically leveling up.
Don't misunderstand, this wasn't because of decreased sanity.
Rather, Ian discovered this soup was very nourishing. After drinking two sips, he would use his [Healing Frenzy], steadily gaining experience without hunger appearing.
It was simply a perfect tonic soup made just for him!
[You are suffering fel corruption, experience +1]
[Life value lost, experience +2]
The knife in Ian's hand created afterimages from swinging so fast. Under the dual forms of experience gain, he achieved double happiness. In no time, his entire aura immediately changed.
He had leveled up.
[Strength: 5.8 → 8.5]
[Constitution: 4.7 → 6.7]
[Intelligence: 2.6 → 2.7]
[Mental: 6.8 → 7.1]
[Level up reward: Occupation Skill Points +1, status weight has increased, erroneous data has been cleared.]
