Chapter 483: Chapter 285: The Fastest Clearing Record (Part 1) “Do you think we’re being lazy right now?” “Being lazy means not working during work hours, we haven’t even started our shift yet, so it’s more like skipping work.” “That makes me feel a lot better.” The Gong Gong trio walked along the streets of the fantasy realm, each with a stick of candied haw in hand, their mouths all tinted a bright red. In front of them, a young NPC girl incessantly introduced the details of this place. “Nanan City is the largest culinary city around here, populated with numerous masters and uncountable delicacies. Securing a foothold here isn’t easy. But don’t worry—I’ll help you guys establish a foothold and build your own hotel.” ... “After that, you can try heading to Lihua City, the Capital. Over there, all sorts of powerhouses gather to compete for the throne of the Food God. If you win, you can even earn the supreme title of Food God.” “But even earning the title of Food God isn’t the end. The world is too vast to be contained in one pot, and the shores are filled with countless delicacies. There are more expansive worlds out there with even more delicacies for you to taste.” The adorable girl up front kept talking nonstop, but the Gong Gong trio weren’t really listening. They came with the attitude of just eating and eating—none of them had the mood to cook for others. Gong Gong, however, looked at the girl’s figure and, chin in hand, said, “Can you do a ‘that’ for me?” “What’s ‘that’?” The NPC girl turned her head, asking in confusion. “You know, like ‘Fry~ Fry~ Miss can’t even cook, what a fry.'” The NPC girl clutched her chest and looked at Gong Gong, her face full of disgust nearly breaking through the sky. After admiring for a while, Gong Gong nodded and said, “That will do, I’m satisfied.” The guide NPC’s favorability visibly plummeted, quickly leading them to a dilapidated tavern before hurrying away without wishing to speak another word. Looking at the retreating backside, Gong Gong said, “Strange, am I disliked?” “Gong Gong… Although you’re my superior, I still want to say, you’re really too perverse,” the Military Governor sighed helplessly. “That expression… I’m satisfied again.” “Hopeless.” According to the settings of “God of Cookery,” Nanan City is the main activity area for beginners, where every player can establish and grow their own tavern. Once reaching a certain scale, when players feel their culinary skills are up to par, they can head to Linhua City to compete with other players. Nanan City is already quite large, located at the confluence of two rivers, brimming with countless fish, and the market is filled with various fresh ingredients on sale every day. Then in some hidden spots, all manner of mysterious ingredients are sold; pufferfish is just ordinary deliciousness here, and various poisonous but incredibly tasty delicacies are the mainstream, with many even willing to gamble with their lives for a taste of something exquisite. To unlock these special locations, one important attribute is needed: NPC favorability. Each NPC has their own independent favorability, and some valuable NPCs will unlock special side quests, like cooking utensils that can improve culinary skills or self-growing Taisui meat, etc. Of course, low favorability can also lead to NPCs not wanting to cooperate, like the previous guide NPC. Before leaving, the NPC girl left some Silver Coin; this money was meant for renovating the inn and learning cooking skills, but the trio immediately spent it all on snacks without a second thought, burning through the funds in just one day. Burping contentedly, the three instinctively chose to delete their accounts and start over, stepping back into Nanan City. They kept repeating this cycle for the entire day until it was time to start live broadcasting in the evening, only then did they reluctantly leave the game to start streaming. The number of viewers seemed a little lower than usual tonight, but Gong Gong didn’t care anymore, her mind was full of the delicacies from the game. The sensations of the Steel Guard bodies were still a bit lacking; their forms were made for battle, hence they weren’t equipped with the food module and couldn’t enjoy those unforgettable flavors. But for Gong Gong, who had just experienced eating in her flesh body for the first time, the sensation was deeply profound, making live streaming seem bland in comparison; she just wanted to hurry back to the game. Sensing Gong Gong’s dull mood, a loyal viewer in the chat said, “Gong Gong, what’s wrong? Tired?” “Not really,” Gong Gong replied with a forced smile, “Just got a bit addicted to ‘God of Cookery,’ and now I’m a little tired.” “You play God of Cookery too! Then we’re like sworn siblings from different mothers! Honestly, I’ve been so hooked lately, I wouldn’t want to log off if Gong Gong weren’t streaming.” “Is that so… wait, those who haven’t shown up, could they also be playing ‘God of Cookery’?” “Seems like it.” “Hmm… I understand now.” You can’t escape daily streaming, but on second thought, they could actually play the game while streaming, getting the job done in the process. It would also pull back the viewers who temporarily left for “God of Cookery,” killing several birds with one stone. Thinking this through, Gong Gong felt she was quite the clever little devil. Truly worthy of being the greatest schemer of the Steel Fortress! Quickly notifying Tai Yin and the Military Governor to enter the game, she swiftly switched the live broadcast to the game screen and cheerfully announced, “Everyone, we’re streaming ‘God of Cookery’ today. First, let me share a great trick we just discovered, you can endlessly freeload by continuously creating and deleting accounts.”
