The first thing that catches the eye is the character selection screen.
Each character has different skills. G-chan chose a girl with golden pigtails, who possesses the initial feasting skill:
【Beauty Charm】
During the feast, you can use flirting techniques such as hair-flipping and body display to attract the attention of other guests, distract them, and win more opportunities to grab food.
Wang Tomato chose a bald Mr. Clean-cut youth.
Initial feasting skill: 【I've Gone Bald, and I've Become Stronger】
Although the young man is bald, he is exceptionally strong. He can use brute force to directly grab an entire plate of food, swallow it in one gulp, and quickly accumulate points.
Old Goose chose an old man with a cane.
Initial feasting skill: 【Old But Vigorous】
The old man uses a cane, but he has surprising agility. He can use his cane to quickly move around the table, picking up delicacies, showing the vigor of an old man.
Chief Chrysanthemum chose a little loli with a ponytail.
Initial feasting skill: 【Wailing】
Innocent smiles and watery eyes are her weapons. She can use sweet smiles or coquettish cries to make the surrounding virtual guests feel pity, reduce their competitive spirit, and win more opportunities for herself.
Sanren chose a middle-aged woman.
Initial feasting skill: 【The Power of a Butcher】
The middle-aged woman, who has been doing housework for many years, pays more attention to the anatomical study of ingredients than other contestants. She has a special speed bonus for structurally complex ingredients, such as roast chicken, roast duck, braised fish, and stewed turtle.
The audience in the comments section was amused: "Good heavens, these feasting candidates don't seem like easy people to deal with. This is going to be interesting."
After selecting the character, the game screen switches to a rural wedding banquet scene.
The comments section exclaimed:
"Wow? The atmosphere of this wedding banquet scene is well-reproduced, and the art style looks quite comfortable. Could it be that the developers of Peach Blossom Land really went to a feast to gather materials?"
"No wonder some streamers saw them traveling in Yunnan before. They really went to gather materials for this little game?"
"This is the first time I've seen someone describe taking a public-funded vacation so freshly and refinedly..."
In the game, a tense atmosphere permeates the feast from the very beginning.
The initial difficulty level of the game is eight people per table, so in addition to the five streamers, there are also three feasting NPCs, who are two young men and a little boy.
As soon as the cigarettes were brought up, the old man controlled by Old Goose pressed down on the pack of Huazi cigarettes on the table and wouldn't let go.
Old Goose: "Hehe, you think I don't know? Mastering the initiative to distribute cigarettes can shut up the male characters."
No sooner said than done, before Wang Tomato could react, Old Goose immediately opened the cigarettes and distributed them to the men at the table.
According to the basic settings of the game, elders of higher seniority must distribute cigarettes at the banquet, and everyone else must honestly accept them.
Therefore, Wang Tomato was unable to attack Old Goose at this time and had to accept the cigarette.
This acceptance implicitly acknowledged Old Goose's right to distribute cigarettes at the table.
Wang Tomato sneered: "Goose, I didn't expect you to be so familiar with this."
Old Goose: "Nonsense, these are all bloody lessons I've learned from countless rural banquets."
The comments section went crazy:
"Hahahaha, I feel sorry for Old Goose."
"I sympathize with Old Goose. I was wondering why people kept giving me cigarettes when I was eating at a rural banquet. As a result, while I was smoking a cigarette, the delicious food on the table had been emptied several times. Now that I think about it, I feel like I lost out. The person who distributed the cigarettes was too cunning."
However, Old Goose didn't have time to be proud for long.
Suddenly, a male NPC sitting next to him ridiculed: "Old man, you're so old, it's not appropriate to stand up and distribute cigarettes all the time. This kind of work should be done by us younger generation."
Before Old Goose could operate, the young man took the opportunity to snatch the pack of Huazi cigarettes in front of him.
"Hey, no, what's going on? Can I still have something I've already gotten snatched away?"
Old Goose blew his beard and glared, clicked on the avatar of the NPC named "Gangzi", and realized that he also had a skill:
Initial feasting skill: 【Unethical】
"As a local rogue and gangster, he naturally doesn't understand the principles of respecting the old and loving the young, so he can ignore the basic rules and specialize in attacking the elderly. He can deceive and sneak attack old comrades over 69 years old."
The character controlled by Old Goose was exactly 70 years old, belonging to the target of the special attack.
The comments section was flooded with messages: "Hahahaha, Old Goose's cigarette was snatched away before it even got warm in his hands."
...
Immediately afterward, the waiter put a bottle of wine and a drink on each table.
The four male characters at the table simultaneously reached for the wine bottle.
The principle of wine and cigarettes is the same: mastering the right to propose a toast allows you to decide whose stomach is filled with wine and can no longer eat anything.
Old Goose just hooked the wine bottle towards him with his cane when the unethical young man snatched the wine bottle again.
Unexpectedly, before the male NPC could move the wine bottle in front of him, Wang Tomato made a move!
He directly raised his hand and pressed down on the wine bottle.
Seeing that Wang Tomato wouldn't let go, and unable to launch a special attack, the little gangster smiled and said:
"Brother, you are the elder, let me pour the wine."
Wang Tomato sneered and chose to speak: "It's okay, brother is still healthy and can handle it."
The two of them verbally declined each other while snatching the wine bottle back and forth with their hands.
After all, Wang Tomato was operating a bald Mr. Clean-cut, who had higher strength attributes than Old Goose's old man, so the little gangster couldn't snatch it after a long time and became angry, directly shouting trash talk:
"Damn! I'm giving you face, are you going to let me have this bottle of wine or not!"
Because of the provocation of the feasting object, Wang Tomato had many new action options in front of him.
Wang Tomato chuckled, directly quickly operating the mouse, manipulating Mr. Clean-cut, reaching out his big hand, pressing the opponent's head, and slamming it on the table.
Clang!
After a deafening sound, the little gangster's face was directly slammed on the wine table, and even the wine table shook a few times.
When he raised his head again, two lines of nosebleeds were hanging on his face.
After being beaten, his violent eyes became clear again: "Brother, I was wrong, I'll give you the wine."
Wang Tomato sneered and pulled the white wine to his side.
【Player Wang Tomato successfully obtained control of the white wine, feasting points +30】
The comments section was frantically complaining at this time:
"Damn, they just started fighting without saying a word, is this feasting?"
"How can they fight before the dishes even start to be served? This is not feasting, this game is too unrealistic."
"Upstairs, you are still too young, too simple."
"Can I say that real feasting is even more exciting than this? One second they are still calling each other brothers at the wine table, and the next second they drink too much and end up fighting each other into the hospital ICU, it's not impossible..."
...
After that, the waiter served two dishes, Kung Pao Chicken and braised pork ribs.
Sanren stood up to receive the dishes.
At this time, the other four people belatedly realized: "Wow, Teacher Sanren, the position you chose is great."
The middle-aged woman operated by Sanren was the seat closest to the aisle, so she naturally gained the power to receive and place dishes.
This position of receiving dishes is very important, but if you want to play it well, it tests the feasting player's strategy and ingenuity.
Some players in the comments section who knew how to play saw it and gave Sanren advice:
"Teacher Sanren can deliberately speed up the speed of placing dishes, creating a surprise attack, and thus be the first to use chopsticks to eat the best and largest rib in the plate.
Teacher Sanren can also deliberately slow down the speed of placing dishes, so that others become impatient and pick other dishes first.
You can even cooperate with your teammates in private. Teacher Sanren holds the dish without putting it down, and the teammates take the opportunity to offer cigarettes and wine, directly filling them up."
Sure enough, Sanren chose the most popular method in the comments section, directly speeding up the speed of placing the dishes, and then getting the best of both worlds, directly picking up the best braised sparerib with chopsticks and putting it in his bowl.
【Player Sanren ate braised spareribs, basic feasting points +10, hard dish bonus +15, food quality bonus +15】
"Damn, Sanren, that's too much."
The other four streamers complained while reaching out their chopsticks.
In "Feasting Simulator", players need to slowly drag the mouse to control the chopsticks to move towards the food, and then slowly put the food into their bowl or eat it in their mouth to be considered successful.
If the player's hand shakes and the ingredients fall to the ground in the middle, then there will be no harvest.
Suddenly, the girl operated by G-chan stood up, constantly twisting her body and shaking her golden pigtails.
The other guests at the table were attracted by her beauty and cuteness, their eyes gradually losing focus and their expressions dumbfounded.
G-chan directly launched the character skill at the beginning.
Taking advantage of everyone's daze, G-chan quickly slid the mouse, sweeping away all the ribs, directly emptying the plate.
【Player G-chan ate braised spareribs, points +120, empty plate reward +30】
The live broadcast comments section started the praise mode:
"Hahahahahaha, as expected of Little Meat Bun."
"But is it really good to use skills at the beginning? There should be better food later."
"Who cares, just have fun."
...
G-chan started this, and everyone was not polite when the dishes were served later.
Various high-quality meat dishes were constantly brought to the table, and all the streamers used all their skills to prioritize grabbing the big dishes and hard dishes.
Especially the Old Goose who manipulated Mr. Clean-cut, directly launched his character skill when the roast duck was served!
"I've gone bald, and I've become stronger!"
Mr. Clean-cut roared, showing amazing power, he grabbed a whole plate of roast duck in his hand and swallowed it in one bite without any effort. The other guests were dumbfounded by his perverted power.
【Player Old Goose ate roast duck, points +150, empty plate reward +50】
Next is the must-grab roast mutton skewers!
Many participants found that using chopsticks to pick up dishes was too slow and easy to shake their hands, so they directly switched hands and grabbed them.
The little girl character operated by Chief Chrysanthemum had too short hands, and each time she grabbed fewer fried skewers than other players.
Chief Chrysanthemum became anxious and directly opened the big move.
She threw away her chopsticks and started twisting her body in place, crying and saying:
"I'm a child, you adults are bullying me together, shame, shame, shameless, waaaah..."
As soon as Chief Chrysanthemum acted coquettishly, the other streamers found that the characters they were operating couldn't move. The NPC guests present were moved by her innocence and cuteness, and actively pushed their plates in front of her, hoping to comfort her.
【Chief Chrysanthemum ate the whole plate of grilled meat skewers, points +180, empty plate reward +70】
"Wow, this works too?" The other streamers were dumbfounded.
But when they saw the skill cooldown time on Chief Chrysanthemum's avatar, they slowly felt relieved.
The cooldown time of the coquettish skill of the little girl operated by Chief Chrysanthemum was much longer than the cooldown time of other players.
Therefore, if you really know how to play, you should calculate the order of serving dishes and the cooldown time, and directly open a wave of big moves every time a high-scoring dish is served.
Next, turtle soup and braised carp were served.
The middle-aged woman operated by Sanren had already launched the skill and carried out fire coverage.
The middle-aged woman's chopsticks were like a swift sword shadow, as fast as thunder, the chopsticks brushed and brushed to dissect the turtle and carp, and grabbed the best meat parts inside.
Moreover, Sanren also manipulated the middle-aged woman to block Wang Tomato, who currently had the highest score, with her thick arms wearing emerald bracelets, preventing him from picking up dishes.
Therefore, Wang Tomato's range of activities was directly restricted, and he could only pick up low-scoring cold dishes in front of him to eat.
"Heh, you think you can stop me from picking up dishes like this?"
Wang Tomato launched the skill again, directly standing up and grabbing the whole plate of crispy meat.
After a gluttonous feast, he quickly emptied the plate.
...
At this time, the feasting has entered a white-hot stage, and the streamers' feasting points are very close to each other.
When they saw the braised prawns being brought up, everyone knew that a bloody storm would be set off next. Now everyone's skills are in the cooldown time, there are no skills, just full firepower!
Old Goose said in the public microphone:
"The other two male NPCs are not easy to deal with either. We were undermining each other just now, and those two NPCs were making a fortune in silence, and they are probably going to surpass us soon.
If none of us five wins in this novice game and we are defeated by the NPCs, it would be too embarrassing."
Wang Tomato smiled and said:
"It's okay, let me do it!"
After saying that, he manipulated the character to get up and start toasting to the other two male NPCs.
The little gangster who was beaten by him just now took the wine glass very sensibly.
Probably he was convinced by Wang Tomato, Wang Tomato poured him as much as he drank, and soon he was drunk and completely unconscious.
Unexpectedly, another male NPC righteously raised his hand and refused Wang Tomato's toast, chanting:
"How can a great man be hurt by wine and lust? From today onwards, I will quit drinking!"
Wang Tomato was stunned, thinking to himself, you also want to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink, right? Just as he was about to press the other person's head on the table, he found that there were no corresponding options in the game.
He was wondering, clicked on the passive skill of that gangster NPC, and suddenly realized:
Initial feasting skill: 【Lu Bu Among Men】
"When there are young women at the banquet, you can refuse toasts from others, and they can't retaliate."
The streamers were dumbfounded.
The chat went wild:
"Hahahaha, what the heck? Peach Blossom Spring? You guys made a game out of memes."
"Good heavens, only abstaining from alcohol, not women, huh?"
"I can't take it anymore, my heart is itching. I have to download this game and see what other bizarre banquet skills there are."
As the banquet progressed into its heated later stages, the male contestants' eating speed noticeably decreased, and they started burping.
A game prompt appeared before them:
[Warning: Eating too much greasy food for an extended period carries a risk of 'nausea'. Please quickly cleanse your palate.]
Just as the streamers looked bewildered, G-chan smirked:
"Hehe, there's an art to banqueting. A balance of meat and vegetables allows you to eat more. That's why I've been secretly eating the greens you didn't want, and drinks can also cut through the grease."
The other four streamers looked at each other, dumbfounded.
Damn, they were so busy grabbing alcohol that they didn't realize G-chan had already seized control of the drinks.
And to effectively cleanse her palate, G-chan had already downed half a bottle of the beverage.
Good heavens, G-chan had been quietly stuffing her face the whole time.
Chat:
"As expected of you, Little Meatbun, a professional food-gobbler."
"Eat, eat, eat! Eating makes you superior! Just eat!"
After the banquet, G-chan narrowly defeated the second-place contestant by one point, thanks to various micro-maneuvers, and claimed victory.
The second-place contestant was none other than that Lu Bu among men, the NPC. The remaining four were the other streamers.
However, winning wasn't the important part. Many players began to marvel at the quality and presentation of the game itself.
They had never played such an unconventional and bizarre game before.
After the combined popularity of the five streamers' live broadcasts exceeded 11 million, the chat went into a frenzy of praise!
