Chapter 541: Chapter 541: Fortunate

“Moreover, I guess, the organizers won’t place birds that can really fly and walk. After all, would they just release them for nothing? Chickens and ducks, which can’t fly high or run far, are more likely,”

“We can search while thinking about the direction of the cuisine. As for mammals, it is not practical to consider pigs, cows, or sheep. The main focus should be on poultry as the main ingredient for the cuisine.”

“An artificial lake might be possible, but I don’t think it’s highly likely. If it were really placed in the sports stadium, there wouldn’t be enough space for an artificial lake, and the investment would be too great. Although the investment in the artificial jungle is also significant, even the Pingla Group has to consider cost savings in major investment projects.”

“As for seasonings, I suggest you all look more closely. This jungle has a high probability of concealing artificially transplanted plants that can be used for seasoning. The appearance might be more primitive, not the processed and ground versions that we commonly see.”

“Pepper, basil, mint, thyme, rosemary, vanilla, and parsley – all these leafy spices could be hidden in the grass,” Cindy Clarke said.

“I just checked the bags the organizers prepared for us. If everyone’s bags are the same,” Cindy Clarke opened her bag, “my bag has only salt.”

“If we can really replace some herbal spices from these plants, it would be a great help for our cooking this time. It’s much better than simply seasoning with salt and more competitive.”

“After all, no matter how high your cooking skills are, it’s difficult to perform exceptionally well using only salt. To put it nicely, it’s original taste, restoring the most natural taste of the food. But if you can’t even remove the fishy smell, it’s too natural,” Cindy said.

Yannick O’Brian asked seriously, “Why would you tell us all this? These replaceings and analyses would give you a great advantage if you kept them to yourself and searched on your own.”

“I don’t know about the others, but as for me, I wouldn’t consider these aspects if you didn’t mention them. In the end, my cooking might be terrible, but it would definitely not meet the judges’ standards,” Yannick O’Brian said.

“Yannick is right,” Daniel Vahn said, “the elimination rate of this competition has been calculated by the organizers. Even if you don’t perform well among the remaining contestants, you can still advance as long as you eliminate the last one or a few. If you don’t tell us, you could easily surpass us by a large margin.”

“With your skills, you could definitely secure first place and stand out in this competition,” Daniel Vahn continued, “performing well in this round may not give you an absolute advantage in the next round, but it’s enough to leave a deep impression on many people.”

Cindy Clarke said nonchalantly, “But, Blake Walker has already left, thinking that I was deliberately wasting time. Why didn’t you guys leave?”

“Because we trust you,” Bartholomew Bailey said, “even though there have only been two competitions so far, we can see that you won’t resort to such tactics outside of cooking.”

Cindy Clarke smiled and said, “That’s why I don’t think there will be any loss for me to share my replaceings. As you said, if we want to win, we should win fair and square in the cuisine.”

“Moreover, even if I share this information with all of you, I don’t think any of us will be eliminated in this round,” Cindy Clarke added.

Everyone immediately understood the implications of Cindy’s words.

In this round, if there were no accidents such as not being able to continue and having to fire the signal flare gun, only one person should be eliminated based solely on the cuisine.

If Cindy’s analysis is correct, at least they won’t be in any danger here.

There’s no need for the signal flare gun.

It’s just an extra layer of insurance for the contestants to feel more at ease.

With such a massive operation, what are a few signal flare guns in comparison?

Excluding the dangerous factors and only considering the cuisine, Blake Walker has already left.

He didn’t hear any of Cindy Clarke’s analysis afterward.

That is to say, they are all on the same starting line.

While Blake Walker thinks that he is ahead, in reality, he is far behind.

Even under equal conditions, Blake Walker’s skills are the worst.

Not to mention now, when Blake Walker has missed so much information.

If someone has to be eliminated, it has to be Blake Walker.

As long as they don’t make mistakes and ensure that the food is cooked, they will already be better than Blake Walker.

However, there is no sympathy for Blake Walker among the contestants.

He brought it upon himself.

All the contestants couldn’t help feeling relieved that they chose to stay with Cindy Clarke because of their trust in her.

Cindy finished talking.

Everyone then split up and went in different directions.

As for whether or not Cindy had any secrets left, they all felt that it didn’t matter.

If she did hide something, it would be her own discovery, and they couldn’t blame her for not replaceing it due to their lack of intelligence.

But everyone felt that Cindy did not hide anything.

She shared such important replaceings already, hiding anything else would be meaningless.

Otherwise, it would be better to hide all the replaceings and secure her victory.

Now hiding something else would be pointless.

So, they didn’t doubt her.

Cindy chose a direction to walk.

She checked her bag again, taking out anything that could be useful and carried at hand.

There is a flashlight in the bag that would probably be needed when it gets dark.

There’s also a small fanny pack in the bag, which is suitable for wearing some straps to carry some tools in the wilderness.

Cindy took out the fanny pack.

The fanny pack was empty, with nothing inside.

Cindy fastened the fanny pack around her waist and took out the flashlight, attaching it to the fanny pack.

She planned to stuff any ingredients she found into the fanny pack.

Taking things outside would be a hassle.

Once it gets dark, she’ll have to rummage through the bag one by one.

It’s better to take out everything that will be used frequently.

Then, Cindy took out a Swiss Army knife from the bag and put it in the fanny pack as well.

The knives they chose earlier were securely stored to prevent accidental injury.

They are then tied to the outside of the backpack.

The only thing left in the bag is a small bottle of salt.

Cindy takes it out and puts it in her fanny pack as well.

After getting everything ready, Cindy walked while observing the ground.

As expected, her conjecture was not wrong.

She really found several kinds of herbal plants for seasoning under bushes and trees.

The organizers were quite thoughtful, deliberately placing them under bushes and trees. Those areas would not be stepped on, preventing from trampling on the plants.
