T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World

"This floor cannot be abstained from."

"Note: Food intake is not based on real-world data collected from players; a specific value is applied to all players."

As she spoke, Xilu transformed herself and donned a black and white maid outfit.

This guide of the tower world personally took on the role of a busy maid on this floor.

The onlookers were filled with surprise.

The Tower World encyclopedia entry describes the matchmaking gameplay.

However, this is the first time I've seen a game where the main gameplay involves comparing food intake and a standardized food intake standard is set.

"The Chaos Celestial Sphere has confirmed that the entry is 'A Lighthearted Song'."

"The monsters that spawn on this floor all carry a blessing that greatly increases movement speed."

Orange Tea sighed in disappointment.

These are useless terms; they're not challenging at all, and the points awarded aren't worth expecting.

At the boundary between the real and the virtual, the group exchanged glances and shrugged.

It doesn't matter, just consider it a seasoning after an intense battle with the Tarot Gemini.

Having a big meal in your dream is a way of treating yourself.

The opponent on the boundary between reality and illusion listened to Yuu's gameplay explanation in another area.

The fog that had shrouded half the arena dissipated, and their figures appeared before the spectators.

"Why isn't there a game ID?"

Players tried to adjust the game panel but were unable to lock onto any player on the other side of the virtual-real boundary.

"Could it be because of the open-world setting that they've blocked access to protect the privacy of another group of players?"

"Uh...that's possible, but then we'd lose some of the fun, not knowing who we'd run into at the boundary between reality and illusion."

Jiang Heyi quickly glanced at his opponent.

The professional lineups, with their diverse racial backgrounds, are just as varied as they are, but they don't mean much in the competition.

The rules stipulate that everyone's food intake is the same, and the core principle is to eat as much food as possible at the fastest and most stable speed.

Guided by Xilu, the two arrived at their respective dining tables.

"Once the competition begins, various kinds of food will be refreshed on the table. The next table will only be refreshed after one table is finished."

French Fries glanced at the dozens of tables in the middle of the venue and raised an eyebrow.

If the rules are that simple, are these tables just for decoration?

And why choose an arena map for dining? Is it just for reusing materials?

Just kidding. Candlelight said that the amount of material the master used when designing this game was unimaginable. It can't be missing a map, can it?

Thinking about it, she lowered her voice and whispered something to Jiang Heyi.

“I can see that too. There are still some rules that Xilu hasn’t explained. It’s not just about eating, eating, eating. It’s not that simple.”

Jiang Heyi looked at the other group of players opposite him, staring back at him from afar, and wondered to himself.

He always felt that the inability to identify the other party's identity information might not be as simple as privacy protection.

Could this group of people be...?

Zhifeng stood up from the garden spectator stand.

The candlelight remained steady.

"It's just a small competition, aren't you getting a little too excited?"

Zhifeng glanced back at the candlelight, then snorted and sat back down.

"Given the sheer number of participants, this kind of friction was bound to happen sooner or later. Instead of staring at each other while looking at the leaderboards, isn't this kind of clash what you'd prefer?"

Zhifeng clenched his fists and ignored him.

Inside the venue, everyone's pre-match preparations have entered the final stage.

Since we need to eat quickly and steadily, it is especially important to know who is good at what.

French Fries raised his hand: "I'll take care of the carbs."

Orange Tea hesitated for a moment: "I can also help with carbs. Actually, I'm pretty good at it."

He tilted his head back and thought for a moment: "I think the food I'm most comfortable eating is seafood. I've been eating it since I was a child, and I love it. I can eat seafood without rice without any problem."

Tetraprotocol fell into deep thought: "I might be meat? My colleagues always say that when I go out to eat, I only like to eat meat and never touch any leafy greens. Moreover, every time I eat meat, my rice intake doubles."

The prison guard volunteered: "I might be fruit. I used to eat fruit to fill my stomach when I was in college, so I saved money."

He got excited as he spoke: "Did you know that many fruits actually provide a good feeling of fullness in the short term?"

Wow, fruit on an empty stomach, and it's also for filling your stomach.

Jiang Heyi thought the prison guard was a fucking genius, and that he should check his blood sugar during his next physical exam!

He didn't completely ruin his health during college, thanks to his loving older brother.

Zhong Zemo doesn't have any particular food preferences, nor can he think of any dish that he could force himself to eat even if he was already very full.

Jiang Heyi was similar; both of them were omnivores, eating as much as they could find something delicious.

Once everyone's strengths are clear, they can switch to a specialization mode when the menu is updated.

"Even communication is encrypted?"

"Privacy protection is really good. Now we can't even gossip."

"I don't think there's anything to gossip about. These people aren't as proactive as the 'Boundary Between Reality and Illusion' group. It feels like there's no division of labor between them."

While the players were still discussing, Yulu had already snapped her fingers, causing a 30-second countdown to appear above the heads of both contestants.

As the host who controlled the pace of the entire event, Yulu muttered something with a mischievous smile as the countdown reached 10 seconds.

"Thirsty, get up~~~"

As soon as the words were spoken, the people on the boundary between reality and illusion suddenly felt their throats were unbearably dry and desperately needed water to moisten them.

As expected, the rules are not as simple as they appear on the surface.

If you're thirsty at a buffet and just grab any drink you want, you're basically giving the restaurant money away.

They knew the difference between reality and illusion, but after exchanging a glance, one of them sneered.

When the time comes, various exquisite dishes will be refreshed on both tables at the same time.

A large wooden barrel of fruit juice was placed in a very conspicuous spot, as if to remind every player, "Look, there's something delicious here, come on over~~~"

Zhong Zemo quickly took the cup, scooped out a small amount, took a sip to moisten his throat, and immediately passed it to the next person.

Everyone does the same thing—isn't it just about filling their stomachs with drinks?

This obvious little trick failed to trouble the opponents at the boundary between reality and illusion; they simply used the same method to alleviate the situation.

The first trap designed by Yulu was successfully overcome by both sides.

As they entered the binge-eating phase, their approaches diverged.

"French fries and tea, here, fried rice and dumplings, this is for you."

"Hey jailer, here's your fruit platter, take it all, eat up! Don't worry, the 'crazy fruit' here won't raise your blood sugar."

"In bed, this dish is seafood, let me see... Steamed sea bass, braised eel, here."

"Tetraprimal, you're in charge of this half lamb."

Jiang Heyi and Moyu followed their usual routine of taking care of everyone while living together, methodically distributing the first batch of refreshed food on the table.

On the other side, his opponents were like barbarians, lined up at various positions around the long table, stuffing all the food that appeared in front of them into their mouths.

Discover, lock, and eliminate—all in one swift motion.

It has a kind of raw, untamed beauty.

However, no one thought they were doing anything wrong. If they could maintain their current feeding pace and win, their success would be enough for players to write into the Tower World Encyclopedia for future reference.

After watching the barbarians for a while, most players turned their attention back to the boundary between reality and illusion.

Most players don't really have a concept of the real-world food quantity at the boundary between virtual and real, so they are usually shocked by the sight of fries being swallowed in large bites and being stuffed.

This carb addict indiscriminately stuffed all the food that Jiang Heyi had sorted and arranged into his mouth and chewed it at a speed that would be impossible for someone without experience...

"That doesn't seem right. In my mind, shouldn't French Fries be the kind of quiet, reserved girl?"

"She eats so fast and so much!"

"Judging from the way Jiang Heyi is being taken care of, it seems she has a big appetite in her daily life."

"Of course! Our Xiaofei can really eat!"

Misunderstandings arising from aspirations.

At their first in-person meeting, Fries shocked everyone by showing off how he could never get full from carbs.

The bizarre scene of the prison guard ordering food for her alone continued to unfold, and when she got into the car, she could even say, "I'm almost full."

Judging by her eating habits, Jiang Heyi estimated that he would become a big fat man in a month.

I envy French fries; they can eat fried food every day and still maintain their figure...

This time it really took a lot of sweat and effort.

In terms of speed, both sides finished the food at the first table at about the same rate.

The food on the second table appeared almost simultaneously.

However, this time, when Jiang Heyi was dividing the food with Moyu, Xi Lu's voice drifted over.

"Limited-time event, 'Cooking Ingredients,' is about to begin."

"One person from each team will regain full abilities."

"You must compete and kill the ingredients to obtain the parts that can be cooked and eaten."

Another snap of the fingers, and this time only Jiang Heyi had a clear countdown number appear on his forehead.

"Holy crap, they're going to slaughter and eat them right here?"

"What an exciting match!"

The spectators were amused and started cheering, suggesting things like a giant dragon spawn.

Jiang Heyi's opponent was a dark elf girl. The two arrived at the food refresh area designated by Xi Lu at the same time, their eyes fixed on each other.

A halo of light rippled, and in the mesmerizing glow, their materials were refreshed.

Uh……

"Fishman?"

Chapter 435 Siren's Little Brother

The fishy smell was even stronger than when you were at a seafood market.

The dark green fish-man has a head that takes up a third of its body, and its short, thin hands are no different from those of a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

The disproportionately large ratio makes one worry that he might fall to the ground.

Its swollen eyeballs almost bulged out of their sockets, its skin covered in seaweed shimmered with scales, and a fishy stench wafted out from the gaps between the opening and closing scales.

He looked up from under the covers and blurted out that bighead carp could be used to make hot pot.

No wonder they're in the seafood business.

The countdown above Jiang Heyi's and the Dark Elf's heads simultaneously reached zero.

"Whoosh~~~"

A clear, resonant sound of a sword being drawn rang out.

"clang!"

Sparks flew as the two men's blades clashed, their teeth clenched.
