After being fed to top-tier orcs, I became the darling of the entire intergalactic world.

Chapter 540 Planetary Monopoly
After lunch, Yinshuo invited everyone to play a game together – Monopoly.

Liang He declined the game because she needed to prepare ingredients for dinner and take the Mengji Snow Leopard and Platinum Lion for a walk in the afternoon.

"If Ah He isn't participating, then I propose that whoever loses has to be responsible for preparing the food, washing the dishes, and cleaning up afterwards, how about that?"

Although this is no-man's land, protecting the environment is everyone's responsibility.

Therefore, all traces of their lives must be thoroughly cleaned up when they leave.

"no problem!"

"I agree."

"I have no opinion."

Yinling's suggestion was unanimously approved by everyone.

“Okay! Then the eight of us can be divided into four groups, and we can put the map on the square table.”

The rules of the game have already been explained to everyone.

It's nothing more than rolling dice, fighting for territory, and earning tolls.

Finally, the group that occupies more than half of the territory wins.

"Shall we draw lots to divide us into groups?"

To ensure fairness and prevent collusion that could negatively impact the gaming experience, everyone decided to draw lots.

Liang He, the only non-staff member, naturally became the notary.

"Hey, tall guy, let's team up!"

Yin Ling raised an eyebrow at Holder. In her opinion, as long as she wasn't paired with those two unreliable bastards, Yin Suo and Xu Yi, she could basically say goodbye to the final punishment.

"I'm in a group with Langton! That's awesome!"

Some were happy while others were sad. Landon, who was assigned to a group with Xu Yi, sighed silently.

Anyway, compared to Cedril, who wrongly accused him of stealing fish, Xu Yi was at least a dutiful companion, so it's alright...

"We're in one group."

Huo An raised the lottery card in his hand and waved to Silver Shuttle.

Huo An, who wasn't particularly concerned about winning or losing, didn't mind Silver Shuttle being a potential 'bad teammate'.

"So in the end, it'll just be the two of us."

Cedril looked at Xuan Jiao, who was playing the game for the first time and was slightly excited, and was fairly satisfied.

Looking at the group results after the draw, Liang He raised her eyebrows. She hadn't expected that the unexpected would be the best.

Currently, each group seems to have at least one reliable person who can keep things under control.

"Let's roll the dice first, and whichever group has the higher number will start."

As the organizer of the game, Silver Shuttle is responsible for advancing the game's progress.

Finally, with two dice rolled, Langton rolled an impressive eleven, rightfully earning the first move.

"This map not only shows various planets, but also all sorts of traps and punishments. If you step into a trap, you must accept the punishment; you can't cheat."

Landon deliberately focused his gaze on Cedril, clearly trying to subtly target him.

Cedril, receiving the gaze, let out a cold snort and raised her haughty cat head—

This time, he must win!
It really doesn't work...

As long as I don't come in last place, that's fine!

"Okay, let's get started."

As Huo An finished speaking, the game officially began.

After watching for a while, Liang He busied herself with dinner, mainly preparing the stewed dishes.

After everyone finishes playing the game, the losers can then divide up the tasks to prepare other dishes, without wasting any time.

"Let me see what dishes you can make?"

Stewed mutton is a must, and the few fish that Cedril and Landon painstakingly caught must also be prepared.

Bluefish have few bones, making them a great choice for grilling.

Moreover, while grilling fish, you can also grill some sweet potatoes, potatoes, chestnuts, etc., to eat together while watching shooting stars at night.

"It's cold, everyone likes to eat something hot, so we can make a stewed chicken stew." Liang He saw that Yin Suo had even bought instant noodles, not intending to waste any of them. Whether added to the stewed chicken stew or the mutton stew, it would surely taste delicious.

Besides that, Lianghe saw quite a few clay pots. She'll wash them later and make some rice soup for dinner. That seems like a good idea.

"I'll stir-fry a few home-style dishes for dinner, pour them into a clay pot, and the rice will be soaked in the meat juices. Just thinking about it makes my mouth water."

Liang He, who was taking stock of the ingredients, began to count them carefully.

"Braised beef brisket with tomatoes, this also needs to be stewed in advance."

"We can prepare the stir-fried pork with chili peppers after everyone finishes playing the game; there's still time."

"There's also braised pork with egg fried rice, which looks pretty good too."

Seeing the cool rice in the earthenware pot, I thought about taking two fish and making a fish soup.

Anyway, there are many of them, plus two beasts, so they don't have to worry about not being able to finish the food; they're just afraid there won't be enough to eat.

"Okay! Let's get started!"

After tentatively deciding on the main dishes and staple food for the evening, Liang He began to prepare in an orderly manner.

She felt that cooking was actually quite mentally taxing, and there were many rules about what to do first and what to do next.

Knowing how to utilize time to complete other prep work while stewing, and how to prepare a delicious dish in the shortest amount of time, is also a test of a chef's skills.

"Meow~"

"Ouch!"

Seeing Liang He busy herself, the Mengji Snow Leopard and the Platinum Giant Lion, unwilling to just watch, obediently surrounded Liang He.

Occasionally, Liang He would also get them involved, helping to carry bags of vegetables over or find some firewood nearby.

At the same time, the board game group officially entered the 'battle' phase.

"Huo An, are you interested in joining forces?"

Seeing that Landon and Xu Yi were gradually taking the lead over everyone with their first-move advantage and incredible luck in rolling the dice, Yin Ling couldn't sit still any longer.

She and Holder, Hoan and Silver Shuttle, the two groups just happen to be related by blood. If they don't cooperate now, when will they?

"can."

Huo An readily accepted Yin Ling's invitation to cooperate. Seeing that they were preparing to join forces to attack him, Landon raised an eyebrow and looked at Cedril and Xuan Jiao.

After a moment's hesitation, Landon turned his gaze to Xuan Jiao.

"How about we cooperate? Let's take out the other two groups first, and then compete fairly."

Unsure whether Cedril was still obsessed with stealing fish, Landon chose to persuade the naive, taciturn, but steady Xuanjiao.

However, Cedril and Xuanjiao are a team after all, and it's not enough for Xuanjiao to agree to cooperate.

"can."

Fortunately, perhaps it was the inexplicable two consecutive losses today that made Cedril feel very threatened.

Unwilling to continue losing, he decisively nodded and decided to first cooperate with his old partner to eliminate the other two groups before competing against Landon.

In the blink of an eye, the situation on the field underwent a new change.

"Tsk~ Let's see which group is the real powerhouse and the born winner!"

The Yin and Huo families joined forces, with Yin Ling and Huo An in charge of strategy, while Huo De and Yin Suo carried out a chaotic killing spree.

As for the other group... three furry creatures plus a doctor who was on the furry creature blacklist, Xu Yi was naturally treated as a 'mascot'.

Despite having no say in the matter, Xu Yi's experience was surprisingly positive; he inexplicably felt a sense of exhilaration, as if he were being carried by a powerful figure.

Xu Yi: Hehe~ So what if I'm on your blacklist? You still have to obediently play along with me~

"I want six!"

"Please give me a six!"

"Six six six!"

Silver Shuttle, responsible for rolling the dice, began to seek home-field advantage, hoping that the ancestors of the temple would bless him with a six.

Landon and the others couldn't help but chuckle as they listened to his muttering, almost bursting out laughing.

To be honest, if you have to ask your ancestors for help just to play a game, are you really sure you won't get crawled out of the ground and given a good beating?
