Chapter 9, A large appetite is certainly impressive
Satisfied
Jelf finished his drink, frowned, glanced over at Mufan, and then walked over. Mufan seemed oblivious, his pupils still unfocused, continuing to throw punches at a steady pace
Half an hour has passed, and some have already gone to drink water and take a break. Mu Fan still maintains that same rhythm. For those who are observant, it is not difficult to notice that Mu Fan's punching frequency is no different from half an hour ago. However, the target remains completely still, and only a few people occasionally glance over in this direction.
"Is it time to eat?" Mufan looked up at him and asked again
Ah, thank you. Upon hearing this, Mufan quickly regained the spirit he had when he first arrived, and even his entire demeanor became more uplifting.
Dinner is ready! Someone shouted over there, and Mu Fan's eyes lit up. He completely disregarded the burly man in front of him and ran straight over.
Oh, Kemo, take good care of the three boxes
Mu Fan, standing at the back, was taken aback as he saw another tall man in front of him receiving three standard meal boxes from the restaurant staff
Jelf held five boxes of nutritional meals in one hand, patted Mufan with his right hand, and nodded towards the direction of the boxes, "Do you see? The amount of food is proportional to one's strength"
Oh, your five boxes
After Jelf finished laughing, he looked over at Mufan, who ignored him. Feeling increasingly bored and not wanting to cause a scene, he decided to disregard the dazed young man on the other side.
Restaurant No. 3, the exclusive dining hall for the staff of the martial arts gym, is equally spacious and open. Being located on the first floor, it is the closest, allowing these sparring partners to enter first, resulting in a relatively low number of people at that time. After queuing at the counter to collect two boxes of nutritional meals, everyone takes them to the side to eat. The distinction of this restaurant from others lies in its use of inexpensive synthetic nutritional substances, which are processed through compression and additives to create various flavors. These meals are rich in energy, protein, vitamins, and more, but the taste is significantly inferior to that of normally cooked food, and they tend to induce a feeling of fullness more easily. Generally, a person feels full after consuming less than one box. However, compared to the low-quality synthetic food, the nutritional meals at the martial arts gym provide four times the energy per hundred grams.
Two boxes, the next one... the next one
What? Jelf's momentum instantly diminished significantly
Mu Fan held two boxes of nutritious meals, staring intently at the person in front of him without moving. He then pointed at the man named Kemo, who had just left, and indignantly said, "How can he take three boxes? Is there a limit on how much we can eat?"
Kid! Feeling that he has lost face once again, Jeff looked down at Mu Fan, a fierce smile spreading across his face
Where is my meal
"Oh, oh, it's almost there" The giant in front was bewildered, having never seen such a person in all these years
... ...
This fellow is quite something, having remained still for fifty minutes over there
You! The scar on Jeff's forehead throbbed with anger; if there weren't others watching, he would truly want to punch this brat away
Jelf walked over again, was he trying to give this kid a warning because he found him displeasing
Everyone comes to eat here mainly because the meals are free. Although the food is not tasty, it is still quite nutritious. In the evening, we will set aside a portion of the money we earned to treat ourselves to a nice meal and have some drinks.
... ...
"Hey, kid, put in some effort!" Jelf let out a good-natured chuckle, walking alongside as he raised his left hand and playfully slapped Mu Fan on the left shoulder like a good buddy. However, he secretly exerted a bit of force; even someone weighing less than 100 kilograms would struggle to withstand that slap. Mu Fan, with a build of no more than 70 kg, certainly could not handle it. He stood there like a fool, throwing punches without saying a word, as if he had come to work out. This attitude was truly off-putting.
After receiving the three boxes of nutritional meals, Mu Fan nodded and said earnestly, "I will come to pick them up shortly, please prepare them in advance"
You see the target platform, it hasn't moved at all, that kid's punches are also lacking in power, we only heard a few muffled sounds
Do not act like a starving ghost; eat a few bites and then stop. The martial arts school prohibits taking food outside, and if caught, you will be severely punished.
Fifteen minutes have passed, and everyone is still practicing. Mu Fan continues to strike one after another...
Suddenly, Mu Fan's eyes widened! He could feel the hunger in his stomach. In the past, the low-quality synthetic meals he had were gone as soon as they touched his stomach, but now he could clearly feel that the food lasted much longer than the previous low-quality meals. It even expanded slightly in his stomach; although it only lasted for 1 more second before disappearing, that brief surge of energy flowing from his stomach to his limbs made him feel a wave of comfort! Even a craving for energy emanated from his very flesh! For his body, although the energy provided by the compressed nutritional meal was slightly less than that of the tastier beast meat, its absorption rate was faster and the quantity was sufficient. This was the food he desired. It even expanded slightly in his stomach; although it only lasted for 1 more second before disappearing, that brief surge of energy flowing from his stomach to his limbs made him feel a wave of comfort!

This was the food he desired.
Then he saw the dazed gaze flicker and then focus on himself, "Is it time to eat?" Mu Fan's brows suddenly raised! He stared wide-eyed at the giant in front of him
Holding three boxes of lunch, Mu Fan sat down on a nearby chair, laid the three boxes of food on the dining table, and a wave of synthetic meat aroma wafted over, causing his stomach to growl loudly. He had never eaten so much in one meal before! Having always lived in a state of hunger, Mu Fan could hardly wait any longer; he grabbed a steel spoon and scooped out one-fifth of the nutritional meal, hardly chewing at all, as the coarse texture did not hinder him from swallowing it whole
The little white hat was even more helpless, quickly handing him three boxes, saying, "You finish this first, then come back. First prove your appetite, and only then will we give you more. Remember, any excess is prohibited from being taken away."
Fifty minutes had passed, and most people had already stopped to rest and chat. Jeff had also stepped down, while Mu Fan continued to throw punches, maintaining an impeccable rhythm. Some had begun to notice this side and were whispering among themselves.
Hahaha ~ another burst of laughter erupted around.
Then I will need ten boxes!" Mufan said seriously, looking at the meal delivery person in front of him who was wearing a little white hat.
The restaurant staff is orderly distributing nutritious meals
Two boxes, hold them well, next... Hey, why aren't you leaving? The ones behind are waiting, hurry up and go
"Kid, the amount of food you can eat is directly proportional to your strength." After two years in the martial arts hall, Jeff's vulgarity has become increasingly pronounced, and his mindset has become more and more distorted since retiring from being a mercenary
The surrounding crowd was momentarily stunned, and then burst into loud laughter, with the person in front laughing so hard that tears were almost streaming down their face
Shh, look quickly, Jelf has slapped down, will that strength of his hand knock this kid down, haha
Jelf stepped forward, looking down at Mufan, and mockingly said with a slight smirk, "Kid, pay attention."
Five minutes have passed, everyone is practicing there, Mu Fan is striking punch after punch
What is choking? Mu Fan felt that he had never really understood the concept of being full in his memory, let alone the term choking, so he truly did not know.
Not far away, Jelf has clearly noticed the situation here with the map and the book, and another round of thunderous laughter erupted, "Hahaha, kid, are you sleepwalking? Or have you been scared off by this sandbag business? This is not a place for you to play house, hahaha!"
Hahaha, I said it, their brains are definitely different. There are still people asking about eating more nutritious meals. Can someone with a physique like Kermona handle it? Can you handle it? This stuff is all compressed, and you still want to eat more? Aren't you afraid of bursting? Hahaha. The booming laughter came from behind. As Jelf entered, he saw this scene and directly pushed his way through, shoving the people around aside. No one dared to object to the bear-like Jelf.
"Kid, you haven't even started working yet and you're already thinking about eating. How much can your frame handle? Don't eat so much that you choke on it later," Jelf sarcastically remarked as he came to his senses.
The people around were laughing so hard that they could hardly stand up straight
With a snap, just like that time with Mankun, the situation that Jeff had anticipated did not occur. He felt as if his hand had struck a stone, and then he experienced the movement of Mu Fan's left fist as it retracted.
Mu Fan continued to strike the target in front of him with one punch after another, all straight punches, left, right, left, right... It was as if... it was as if his breathing was as regular as that of someone asleep. If one were to look closely, it would not be difficult to notice a hint of glistening at the corner of Mu Fan's mouth, and at this moment, his bright eyes clearly lacked focus in the pupils.
