There's a big problem with dreams in this world.

Lu Qing quickly pretended that she was the one in control, and soon defeated Fang Qingrou with her character who was low on health.

"Huh!?" Fang Qingrou looked at the fallen character on the screen with surprise, then looked at Lu Qing incredulously and said, "Little Lu, how did you suddenly become so amazing?"

"Ahem, it's nothing, I just suddenly found myself playing it." Lu Qing said with a slight smile.

"It's about time, let's go back to the fast food restaurant." Seeing that Fang Qingrou wanted to play another game, Lu Qing quickly interrupted her.

"I..." Fang Qingrou glanced at the screen on the arcade machine and felt a little uncomfortable.

This feeling of desperately wanting to get back at someone after being defeated, especially if the opponent simply stops fighting, is a truly unpleasant experience...

"But time is indeed running out. Anyway, I've already won so many rounds, it's just that I lost the last one," Fang Qingrou comforted herself.

"Hmph, this game is really fun." Lu Qing, who was walking ahead, thought with great pleasure.

"Speaking of which, why did you help me?" Lu Qing asked her sister in her mind.

"I'm not helping you, I just want to have a fight with her," the younger sister said, floating beside Lu Qing.

"Oh well........"

"........."

After a moment of silence, Lu Qing spoke first.

"Um..." Before Lu Qing could finish saying "Do you hate me?", she changed her mind and asked, "Will you help me?"

The younger sister, clutching her teddy bear, stared at Lu Qing for a while before saying, "Probably."

"Why?" Lu Qing asked again.

"Because I'm a good person!" the younger sister said, giving a somewhat baffling answer.

Just as she was about to say something more, her sister's body turned into a thick fog and entered her shadow, where she became unresponsive no matter what she said.

This feeling is a bit like... throwing a tantrum?

P.S.: I said I'd update twice, so I'll update twice!

I'm so sleepy, emmmmmm, going to bed now.

Chapter 442: The Match Begins!

Looking at her own shadow, Lu Qing was unsure whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.

"What's wrong?" Fang Qingrou noticed that Lu Qing seemed a little absent-minded, so she asked with some concern.

"It's nothing." Lu Qing shook her head, pulling her gaze away from her own shadow.

"oh........"

Fang Qingrou glanced at Lu Qing's shadow and felt that it shouldn't be a big deal, so she didn't ask any further questions.

I rushed back to the fast food restaurant, only to find that the eating contest had already begun. A female host in a pristine white shirt was holding a microphone, warming up the crowd for the start of the event.

When the four of them arrived, the warm-up activities were almost over, and the next thing to be said was the rules of the event.

According to the host, there are a total of ninety participants, divided into forty-five groups of two.

The makeshift stage couldn't accommodate so many people, so the competition was divided into two stages.

The first stage involves giving each group a giant hamburger. Only the group that finishes the hamburger is eligible to advance to the next stage. It's less of a preliminary round and more of a ticket to the next stage, eliminating those who can't eat much.

After the first stage, the main event of the competition begins: the staff will distribute the same two-person set meal to each group, and the group that finishes the most sets wins.

Oh right, I forgot to mention that there's no limit to drinks during the event. You can drink as much as you want, no one will stop you. However, to increase your chances of winning, it's best to drink less.

The preliminary rounds began quickly, and the customers whose numbers were called went up to the stage, filling it with five groups.

"Ugh... I suddenly regret it a little," Fang Qingrou said, looking at the contestants on the stage.

"Why?" Lu Qing asked Fang Qingrou with some confusion.

"Because I don't really want to eat hamburgers. If I could, I'd like to eat fried chicken," Fang Qingrou said, looking conflicted.

"It's okay, as long as you can get through the preliminaries, fried chicken will naturally be included in the later meals." Muir patted Fang Qingrou's shoulder with a gloating smile.

"We were all full by then, who would have the appetite for fried chicken?" Fang Qingrou glanced at the giant burger that the clerk had brought over and said, "That thing is almost as big as my washbasin. Can anyone really eat anything after finishing that burger?"

"........"

Lu Qing glanced at the hamburgers on the table and felt that if there were two of them together, the pressure wouldn't be too great. No, to be precise, even if she were alone, she could easily finish them off.

"Goo~"

A strange sound came from beside her. Lu Qing subconsciously touched her stomach before realizing that the sound was not coming from her.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Hao Meng with her head down, looking shy, her fair ears turning bright red.

"Um, that, I..."

Under the watchful eyes of the three, Hao Meng's voice grew softer and softer, but fortunately, Lu Qing's hearing was very sharp, and she still managed to hear what she was saying.

It was only then that she remembered that Hao Meng hadn't eaten for more than a day and had been in a deep sleep since leaving the dream game until this morning.

Logically, she should have been hungry after waking up in the morning, but she didn't say it for a long time.

"Could it be because he's too shy to say it..." Lu Qing thought to herself, and felt that it was indeed possible.

If she had known this would happen, why would she have participated in the competitive eating contest? Finding a place to eat would have been the most important thing. Having lived in the dark forest for a while, Lu Qing knew very well what it felt like to be hungry.

"Hao Meng hasn't eaten anything since she fainted from the dream game yesterday. I forgot about it, I'm sorry," Lu Qing said apologetically.

"No, it's okay, I forgot to mention it," Hao Meng quickly waved her hand.

During the conversation, the first five groups of contestants had almost finished, and the host announced the numbers of the next five groups of contestants.

"Please come to the stage, contestants from groups 44, 24, 36, 41, and 06!"

"Huh?" Lu Qing was stunned for a moment, then remembered that her and Hao Meng's numbers were 41.

"Let's go, Mengmeng, it's our turn to go on stage. You must be hungry too," Lu Qing said to Hao Meng.

“Hmm…” Hao Meng nodded and followed Lu Qing onto the stage.

"Hey?"

When the host saw Lu Qing and Hao Meng walk onto the stage, his eyes lit up and he quickly went to them.

"You two little girls are very pretty. Could you tell us why you participated in this event?"

"It's nothing, I just happened to be passing by and saw there was an event, so I came in," Lu Qing said with a smile, instantly realizing what had happened.

"Are you confident of winning the championship?" the female host asked again.

"I'm not very confident, after all, I have a small appetite," Lu Qing said, feigning modesty.

"It's okay, I believe in you. It's all about participation," the female host said, clenching her fist to encourage the two of them.

After she finished speaking, she estimated the time in her mind, and when she felt it was about time, she asked the two of them to sit down.

Countless eyes were fixed on the two from below the stage, after all, compared to the other contestants, Lu Qing and Hao Meng were far too cute.

What decent person would ignore a cute girl and look at other men instead?

Although there were girls in other groups, most of them were there to form couple teams with their boyfriends, and it would be disrespectful to look at them even once.

Hao Meng, who was being watched by countless people, felt somewhat uncomfortable, but she endured it because she thought it was for her own training.

Lu Qing noticed this and quietly took her hand under the table.

"Take a deep breath and don't be nervous," Lu Qing encouraged.

Whether it was her own encouragement or not, Hao Meng quickly calmed down. Although there was still a slight blush on her cheeks, she was not as nervous as she had been at the beginning.

Soon, the huge hamburger was brought over by the waiter. Hao Meng was obviously starving, and when she saw the hamburger, her attention was focused on it, and she was no longer as nervous as before.

Lu Qing quickly cut the hamburger into several pieces with a knife, and then enjoyed it with Hao Meng.

She ate in small bites, and for some reason, even though both of them were eating with their hands, Lu Qing's manners seemed much more civilized, and she was also quite fast!

As for Hao Meng, although she also ate her hamburger in small bites, she put it into her mouth very quickly.

Under the combined onslaught of the two, the entire Big Mac quickly vanished before the astonished eyes of the audience leaving the stage.

Lu Qing took out a tissue to wipe her mouth, then patted her stomach, feeling that she could eat several more hamburgers of this size!

If you fully utilize the "Great Appetite" skill, you could easily eat ten!

Of course, that would involve too much digestion, and without a lot of exercise, she might gain weight, so she wouldn't do that.

Chapter 443: I'll help you with the rest.

"It's really unexpected! Although the two young ladies look petite, they have very good appetites!" the female host said with a surprised expression.

After she finished speaking, she glanced at the other four teams and, seeing that they hadn't finished eating, went to stand in front of the two of them.

"Are you two dream summoners?" the female host asked with some curiosity.

It's reasonable for her to think that way, after all, the human body is only so big in reality, and no matter how much you can eat, you can't eat your stomach to the point of bursting.

However, Dream Summoners are different. Improved physical fitness will increase their appetite and speed up digestion. Except for some people with special skills, increased food intake is inevitable.

"Mm." Lu Qing nodded, acknowledging her identity as a Dream Summoner, since it wasn't anything shameful.

Speaking of which, she's quite well-known now, but it seems like no one in this shop recognizes her.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing; Lu Qing even felt somewhat fortunate, since being recognized by too many people would affect her life.

"Wow, that's amazing!" After receiving Lu Qing's acknowledgment, the female host exclaimed in surprise, then asked, "Could you tell me the level?"

"Let's forget about this one, it's not high enough..." Lu Qing said, feigning shyness and pretending to be embarrassed to mention the level. Her basic acting skills worked quite well at this moment.

She felt that if she answered the other person here, the conversation would probably go on and on.

After all, only their group on the stage had achieved their goal, so the female host had no choice but to continue the conversation with her in order to liven up the atmosphere. Unfortunately, Lu Qing did not want to cooperate with her.

Moreover, the white level is indeed not high. The only falsehood is that Lu Qing would not be embarrassed to speak up because she is a white level person.

If the female host really wants to know, let her check the registration records herself after the competition.
