Chapter 298: Fantasy (Update 1)
Giving up is actually a very easy thing.
As long as you leave this matter alone and just pretend that it never happened, then that's fine.
After all, Wu Wei knew how much he weighed, and his level among players could only be considered mid-range, incomparable to other players.
Only seven people were selected out of millions of players. The players selected from them are definitely experts. There is really no advantage at all if you go by yourself.
But after all, I am also a person selected by the system. Is there really something special about me?
In the constant struggle, Wu Wei spent a sleepless night.
The next day, Wu Wei got back into the game cabin, pushed his food cart again, and took the boy with him.
One night, he still couldn't figure out whether he should participate.
It might be embarrassing to participate, but he would not be willing to not participate. When he was worrying about gains and losses, he had accidentally arrived at the competition site and found that it was more exaggerated than he imagined.
The location of the competition is set in the square of the Food God Gate, which is usually inaccessible to players and has always been one of the most mysterious places in the game.
But now, this place is open, and even players who are not interested in the competition will come here to see what the largest organization in the game looks like.
But after actually seeing it, players have to sigh that the art of Fangcheng Studio still has two brushes.
The whole place was full of fairy spirit, and the building was covered with auspicious clouds. A large number of disciples of the God of Cookery were floating in the air, inspecting everything below and maintaining the order of the scene.
Countless items that are rarely seen in the outside world abound here. What is placed at the door are rare ingredients in the game. The items that players need to complete a large number of side tasks in the game are just decorations here, making people doubt that the real immortal sect is nothing more than fear. in this way.
The most eye-catching thing is the shadow in the sky. The shadow hidden in the clouds is as ethereal as a giant Buddha hidden in the clouds, which makes people have the urge to worship.
Many people speculated that that should be the Supreme Elder here.
As the biggest competition in the game, this place has been crowded with players watching the excitement. Even players who have no intention of joining the Food Alliance and the Freedom Front came here out of curiosity to watch this rare event in the game.
The huge square was already crowded with people. Realizing that there were already too many people, a disciple of the God of Cookery sect waved his hand, and the stands expanded infinitely, allowing all the millions of players to enter.
And although there were more people, everything in the square could still be seen clearly. This bizarre scene made no sense at all, and could only be explained by a fairy trick.
Mixed in the crowd, Wu Wei sat in the stands with the boy, and then saw the contestants from both groups.
The participants of the Freedom Front are Gonggong, Taiyin and Oujun. The three of them have been honing their skills for a long time. At this time, they want to defeat their enemies here and let them know that they are not easy to mess with.
Opposite were people from the Food Alliance, whose leader Qian Xiaohao personally left the competition, but the two people he invited actually participated in the competition.
These two are also famous chefs in reality. After being invited, they also spent a lot of time practicing in the game. During this period, all the expenses were contracted by the Food Alliance. They are truly wealthy.
There are also private commentators among the players. Chen Rang and his own Mu Kui sat at the commentator's seat in front and began to commentate on this game.
Although he is a member of the Freedom Front, Chen Rang's commentary this time has his own professionalism in it, so he promises to be objective and fair unless he can't help it.
Opening a live broadcast room for himself, Chen Rang said directly: "Hello everyone, I am the commentator this time, Chen Rang. I am also a heavy player of "God of Cookery", and I will try my best to provide you with professional explanations. But before that, I need to solemnly introduce the person next to me, Mu Kui. She is..."
Mu Kui on the side tugged Chen Rang's clothes hard, blushed and said in a low voice: "Explaining the game, not commentating. Me!"
"Sorry, I'm used to it."
After coughing without shame, Chen Rang continued: "We also invited our special guest, Mr. Fang Cheng, the boss of Fang Cheng Studio. Mr. Fang Cheng, do you have Is there anything you want to say to the contestants?"
Fang Cheng sat aside, looking at the situation on the court indifferently and said, "Whatever."
"Okay, thank you Mr. Fang Cheng for encouraging the contestants, we will officially start. You can watch By the time the two sides of the game had entered the venue, there were only six people on the field, and the mysterious seventh person did not appear. Now it is the time for the customary quarrel. One is that Sanji meets the person to be the best, and her righteous words are loud in the clouds; the other is Qiangqiang They join forces to show their power, and their tongues are bright and their lotus flowers are upright. It's a pity that they can't do anything to each other, otherwise Gao Luo will show everyone a complete martial arts. Oh, you can see that Qian Xiaohao originally wanted to ridicule, but the effect was not good, and Gonggong found the flaw and played it Real damage! He broke through the defense, he was anxious!"
Mu Kui tugged on Chen Rang's clothes again and whispered: "Objective..." "
Oh, I understand. Then let's go back to the game. First The dish is free to play, and each party can cook a dish. You can see that the dish prepared by the Food Alliance is Buddha Jumping over the Wall. It is said that this dish is so delicious that the Buddha was attracted by the aroma, forgot to meditate, and was even willing to climb over the wall to see what it is. It's delicious. What do you think, Mr. Fang Cheng?"
"He didn't jump over the wall, he was gone at that time," Fang Cheng said.
"This is different from the legend. Does Mr. Fang Cheng have any research?" "
I confirmed it with my own eyes."
"Haha, Mr. Fang Cheng is really humorous."
Chen Rang nodded with satisfaction, feeling that Fang Cheng was also quite cool. It will stir up the atmosphere.
But Mu Kui on the side looked over and felt that Fang Cheng was not joking.
The Great Heavenly Lord should have really seen it!
Buddha Jumps Over the Wall takes a long time to cook, but the two major guilds have their own unique tools, including a tool that can speed up the cooking time and cook ingredients quickly, saving time.
With this thing, the soup that originally took several hours can now be cooked in ten minutes, and the color and fragrance are not reduced.
The ordinary Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is just a five-star delicacy, but the two chefs have improved this dish. The ingredients used are all top-quality and sparkling when taken out.
Just seeing the original ingredients made some players with game cabins tremble in their Adam's apples, and the Xianmen disciples responsible for supervision frequently looked sideways, but their eyes remained as cold as ever.
Within a few minutes, the aroma of Buddha jumping over the wall filled the surroundings.
This aroma is so alluring, the various smells are like dancing in the sky, extremely graceful, the various flavors cooperate with each other, and countless precious ingredients are condensed into a pot of fragrant and delicious food.
Seeing everyone's performance, Qian Xiaohao smiled proudly at Gonggong with eight teeth.
As an atypical rich second generation, he is also a person who loves games, but his interest in games is different from others.
When rich people play games, they should make money.
If a problem can be solved with money, don’t ask me to solve it with liver!
Based on this concept, Qian Xiaohao spends money like crazy in "God of Cookery", recruiting troops and establishing a food alliance with his friends. He does nothing every day and just sits and waits for the food to come to his door.
However, the appearance of Gonggong made his food plan unexpected. This naughty little girl actually felt that it was wrong for her to spend money, and even interfered with her plan. How could she tolerate this kind of thing.
Unfortunately, now is the time to come back.
Your own chef is a real chef, and your own ingredients are the best items in the game. You can only find second-rate goods over there, how can you fight with me!
Just when he was proud, he saw Gonggong moving something out.
It was a stove-like object, with a bronze-colored appearance that was simple and square. The aura on it was rich, and you could faintly see blue dragons flying and phoenixes singing in unison.
Seeing this thing, Fang Cheng finally became interested: "Zhong Ming Ding, there is this thing here."
"Mr. Fang Cheng, what is that?" Chen Rang asked doubtfully. This was also the first time he had seen this thing. It should be a secret weapon that Gonggong had found and hidden to cope with this competition.
"The food made by the Immortal Tool of the God of Food is delicious."
"...No more?"
"Well, it is indeed delicious."
After putting this thing on the table, Gonggong said directly to Qian Xiaohao: "Give in, let's talk about food. , you can't compare to me."
"Are you kidding me?"
"Then you are humiliating yourself. Taiyin, do it."
A large amount of ingredients were sent to the cauldron by Gonggong. Every time an ingredient was sent, everyone could see A stream of dazzling colored lights erupted from the cauldron.
However, unlike the dazzling special effects, the aroma of the food did not appear at all. A group of people could only see streaks of colorful lights, but they had no idea what actually happened.
I don't know how many things were stuffed in, but the groove under the cauldron finally opened, and thumb-sized balls fell like pearls, no more, no less, exactly eighteen.
The eighteen meatballs look like silver balls with cloud patterns printed on them.
Although there was no scent, for some reason, seeing these eighteen meatballs, the saliva in the mouths of the audience was like a flood that had opened and couldn't stop.
Qian Xiaohao on the opposite side was the most affected. Staring at these meatballs, he seemed to hear a voice telling him to put these meatballs into his mouth immediately, otherwise he would have no chance.
Swallowing his saliva over and over again, Qian Xiaohao suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "I'm reporting this, this is not cooking at all, this is alchemy!" "
Then why don't you report yourself? You obviously don't know how to cook, but you did this. This place is embarrassing." Gonggong crossed his arms and sneered.
"You!"
The scene was also noisy. It seemed that Gonggong's behavior was quite controversial, making people wonder if this was still cooking.
Chen Rang also turned his head and said to Fang Cheng beside him: "Mr. Fang Cheng, do you think this is a violation?"
"No. Cooking and refining alchemy have the same meaning."
Chen Rang suddenly became interested. , came closer and asked: "Boss Fang, please explain."
"They all have various materials, all have fire requirements, and they all need to know different processing methods of different items, so cooking is essentially refining elixirs, but one aspect The upper level is just facing the lower level."
"Oh, that's it, then Gonggong doesn't break the rules, right?"
"What she did was not illegal, but she herself violated the rules."
Gonggong shuddered violently. I feel like I'm going to be unlucky.
However, during the competition, she could not be distracted. She still submitted the meatballs she made and waited for the Supreme Elder's evaluation.
Qian Xiaohao's Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and Gonggong's meatballs were served together. Compared with the huge shadow in the sky, these two pieces of food were as small as dust and could not withstand the weight of his mouthful.
After silently taking these things, the Supreme Elder said nothing. Instead, his disciple said: "The second round."
"Wait, what is the result?" Qian Xiaohao asked immediately.
"If the Supreme Elder doesn't say anything, it's a draw."
Before Qian Xiaohao could question, the second round began.
The venue changed, and the huge square seemed to have been moved into ruins.
The city seemed to have just been cleaned up with terrifying magic weapons. The largest brick in the ruins was no bigger than a fist, which showed how fierce the enemies were in destroying this place.
There were refugees all around, the cries of children and the sighs of parents could be heard all the time.
These people are still in a state of intimidation. The slightest movement will cause them to scream, causing a chain reaction that will cause all the refugees here to scream.
Hungry refugees will drop dead on the roadside at any time. They were all injured, and it was a miracle that they made it here alive.
And because of the game cabin, everything in front of you is lifelike, making people feel like they are really seeing these refugees and coming to them.
In this illusion, the voice of the Supreme Elder finally sounded: "This is the scene when we came here from the God of Cookery Sect. We were attacked by the greedy demon Lord Cannian. Fortunately, we got the help of the Immortal Society, so we were able to come here. But as you can see, the people are exhausted and everyone is hungry. And the content of your competition this time is to feed them."
Looking at it, there are probably thousands of hungry people around, and a few of them can't even Can't finish it.
"Isn't this a food competition? Why does it come to this?" Gonggong asked doubtfully.
Qian Xiaohao also reached a rare agreement with Gonggong, and then said: "We shouldn't make delicious food for you to try. Can you choose a good person?" "...Food is the most important thing for
the people. This is The foundation of the food god sect. When did we say that competition depends on the degree of deliciousness?"
"But..."
"If you don't want to compete, then abstain."
The insipidity of the Taishang elder made both parties a little unhappy. , but the situation is like this now, we can only start.
But at the beginning, they discovered that the situation here was not very good.
The water needs to be beaten right away, the noodles need to be mixed right now, and the rice needs to be steamed right now. All kinds of ingredients are available, but it is difficult to coordinate them in time.
Moreover, they focused all their energy on various high-end delicacies, but they fell behind a lot in terms of speed. It took only half a day for the two groups to cook two portions of food, and they were gone in just a few bites.
The children's cries became louder and louder, and some people even started eating dried rice. The sight of hungry ghosts made this place feel like hell, and also made some people who had experience of starvation turn pale as they remembered something.
The pressure around them makes the contestants more and more busy, and the speed of making things becomes slower and slower. Even if they know that this is an illusion in the game, they still can't calm down when they hear children shouting that they are hungry.
In the audience, the little boy pulled Wu Wei's clothes and whispered: "Uncle..."
"Oh... I know."
Looking at the scene in front of him, Wu Wei knew that he had to go up.
He stood up and walked towards the competition stage in full view of everyone.
