  Chapter 222 New Year   North Gate.

Under the spacious shed, there is a long table and two braziers next to the table. The charcoal fire inside is very hot.

Chu Guang, wearing blue power armor, stood in the shed, looking at the little players in the bazaar, with an old father's smile on his face.

Not bad.

Draw a piece of cake and let the players burn it by themselves. Sure enough, this is what the planning should do.

Chu Guang originally thought that holding this celebration would consume a lot of inventory, but now it seems that his worries are completely redundant.

Those little players obviously read his activity copy several times, and even from the perspective of the game background, they also dig out what he wanted to express but was not embarrassed to write in the copy.

Wasteland Gourmet.

Naturally, you have to use some "authentic" food on the wasteland.

How embarrassed to say that the dishes you cook are "the purest wasteland"?    Crunchy stove cricket meat, deep-fried mutant cockroach legs, leech pans bouncing around, and luminous Blood Sucking Insect steaks, all made up!   Of course, Chu Guang doesn't know how to eat it himself.

He doesn't have N lives.

It’s better to eat something healthy and hygienic.

There are three awards for the tournament.

One is the food of the wastelanders in mind, the other is the food of the players in mind, and the other is the approval of the manager.

The three awards have different selection criteria and different judges, but the awards are generally the same.

That is, huge amount of activity points!

Limited title!

And enter the Hall of Fame, shine on the forum!

Same as the previous events, you can earn points by completing tasks in the event. Points can be used to redeem event-limited rewards and New Year red envelopes-in fact, it is a lottery that has changed its name.

The prizes include, but are not limited to, the first prize of 666Silver Coin, as well as the special prize-a carbon nano bulletproof vest worth 6666Silver Coin.

This item has never been put on the NPC store before, and the price is randomly selected by Chu Guang. Anyway, even if you add a zero estimate, no one will refute it.

In addition to lottery, what is most interesting to players is of course the limited title and the chance to enter the Hall of Fame.

And according to the manager himself, if it wins the title of "Wasteland Gourmet", its designed dishes will be included in the menu of this year's New Year's party.

For life professional players, this temptation is too great.

In order to compete for this title, all condiments except salt in the warehouse were almost sold out.

So that Chu Guang had to temporarily adjust the activity strategy, temporarily removing the spices from the warehouse shelves, and changed it to complete the task to receive.

It is also thanks to this. The progress of completing the daily tasks in the past few days is quite gratifying, and he, the manager, has also received reward points from the system.

In order to meet the cooking needs of players, Chu Guang has spent almost all of his points on the primary level blind boxes these days, and for this, he has also obtained a lot of seeds for high-yield crops.

this can be considered unexpected harvest.

Looking at the wooden token on the table, Xia Yan looked towards Chu Guang and asked with a confused look.

"What is a judge?"

She had never heard such a strange word.

Chu Guang explained with some thought.

"In short, you go around the north gate and take a copy of the food that looks good. If it is delicious, just like it."

Of course, you have to taste it before you eat it.

As a sensory player, her innate talent is toxin intuition, and she can see what she can't eat at a glance.

In addition, her physique attribute is not high, and she can eat anything that is okay, basically others can eat it.

Yaya is so happy to be a "tester".

Chu Guang still remembers how the little player patted his chest to assure himself that he would do his best to maintain the order of the celebration and be sure to hand over this "honorable and arduous" task she.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Xia Yan nodded dumbly.

To sum it up,...you can take whatever you like when you see it?

No need to spend money on eating and drinking for nothing?

This is too cool! ?   The little fish sitting behind the long table has a slightly awkward expression.

Taking a peek at Brother Chu big, she said in a small voice.

"But...is it really okay if you don't give me money?"

To be honest, this question is a bit redundant.

What do the judges pay for food?

It’s generous enough without the entry fee!

Not to mention that there are points rewards for participating, even the most consolation prize is definitely enough to pay for that little meal.

Chu Guang originally intended to say that, but seeing Xiaoyu's sad expression on his face, he changed his mouth again.

The dog plans to be alone.

Can't teach the children badly.

"This is part of the celebration. The expenses of the event will be borne by the shelter... You can understand that the money has actually been paid."

There is a pause here. moment.

Looking at the ignorant little fish, Chu Guang laughed gently and continued.

"Remember to say thank you to them before tasting."

"They will be happy all day."

Xia standing beside her arms Boss, also seemingly nodded.

Understood.

It turned out not to be for nothing.

It’s public money for food and drink.

……

The gourmet tournament to welcome the New Year is in full swing. In order to get the limited title, whether it is a professional player in life or a professional player in combat, they have tried their best.

The event lasted until the last day of December.

This day is a rare sunny day.

The howling north wind and blizzard are already an arrow at the end of its flight, and the harsh winter seems to have come to an end.

Everything is foreshadowing, the dawn is coming, and the victory is in sight!

In order to welcome the coming 212 years of the Wasteland Era, the outposts are littered with lights, and it's so lively.

Many houses are pasted with red paper, and red cloth strips and ribbons are hung on the doorways.

In order to make the festival atmosphere stronger, Chu Guang also specially issued a task to make more than forty lanterns in the woodworking hut, which were hung from the square in front of the sanatorium to the market at the north gate.

At dusk.

More than forty lanterns light up.

The dim light, against the burning torch, made the entire outpost lively and at the same time added a bit of festive color.

Chu Guang discovered that his little players are simply geniuses.

In just one week, in the absence of supplies, his little players surprisingly unlocked hundreds of recipes.

There are some very creative brains, even he can't help but click clicking one's tongue in wonder.

Such as vines.

It is said to have gained experience from nomads. With the help of sisters Qiucao and Qiuye, she used the pupae of the devil moth to extract shellac, which was similar to "soil bamboo shoot jelly". s things.

That thing is crystal clear and near-transparent, white and soft, and tastes like jelly. If you don't deliberately mention it, no one will think of the devil moth.

Without any suspense, the food won the award of "the most popular wasteland food among players".

After all, compared to Lao Na’s salt and pepper charcoal grilled mantis legs, and some "realistic delicacies" that have nothing to do with wasteland at all, this dish cleverly finds one in between. balance point.

And the taste and texture are pretty good, belonging to the "order-neutral" kind.

The only pity is that there is no chili sauce, otherwise it will be more delicious.

However, not everyone is satisfied with this result.

Especially for those who "nearly won the game"...

"Gan! Why the wasteland Gourmet is not me! Obviously so delicious!"

>

"That's it!"

"It's too much!"

The awards session ended as early as noon, and now it's the celebration time.

The unwilling gorge is running away. The Mole, the Spirit King, the wealthy and Lao Na, roasted all the unfinished mantis legs, trying to prove themselves with the taste.

However, helplessly, the silhouette of the three people in front of the booth is sparse, and there is no who patronizes at all.

Even though it was confirmed that there was no poison, Yaya still shook his head into a rattle.

"Sorry, physical discomfort, I really can't accept this kind of delicacy!"

The beautiful and kind-hearted Ms. Fujito took a closer look, thinking about buying something to comfort them. But when I was about to pay, I couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

"Speaking of this...Is there really no worms?"

Upon hearing these words, Mole brother suddenly felt that his wound had been sprinkled with salt, with a look of grief and indignation. To say.

"How can there be so many worms! Not all praying mantises have worms!"

Spirit King Rich: "Yes! It's all bombed like this! And it's not poisonous Is it?"

Irene: "Gan! Do you know how hard it is to find these things in the winter!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I, I, I will not ask... "Fujiteng hurriedly took out the VM. Although she didn't know why she had to apologize, she paid for it first.

Can't stand aside anymore, Ye Shi walked over, patted Irena's shoulder, and sighed.

"Forget it, Lao Na, let's give up, don't struggle."

Irena said angrily: "Nine Zoukai! I won't be offline until it's sold out. !"

Ye Shi silently let go of his hand.

Good fellow.

It turns out that I was ready to spend the night......

......

The most recognized gourmet award by players was won by Fujito in one fell swoop.

The delicacies recognized by NPCs such as Xia Boss, Xiaoyu, Yin Fang, Heya, guards, and warehouse keeper are the "Mushroom Cloud Cake" made by Yaya.

As a taster, she also participated in this game.

Beat the egg whites with the eggs bought from the Frostspear clan and mixed with sugar. Yaya cleverly used the egg whites in a round-mouth piping bag to make one after another small mushroom caps, sprinkled around them With chocolate chips.

The whole cake looks like a mushroom cloud, and the chocolate chips surrounding it have become a nuclear bomb crater. If you insist, it can barely be regarded as wasteland-style food.

But to be honest, in Chu Guang's opinion, this is a complete act of trickery.

Chocolate, sugar and eggs are all bought, and they are far from cheap.

Although Chu Guang has repeatedly emphasized that what he needs is cheap and delicious food, but the NPCs are all conquered by the taste of chocolate, and they are completely disinterested in wasteland-style food. .

Looking at the little fish with shining eyes, Chu Guang really couldn't bear to vote down, so he didn't say anything.

Fortunately, he also expected deviations in the results of the voting, so he set up a third award-"The most recognized cuisine by the manager".

This award is presented by him himself.

The delicacy that won the award is the "Crack-claw Crab Cake" of Niu Ma Squad.

400g of cracked claw crab meat is added to 450g of green wheat flour, mixed with 10g of salt, a little buffalo grass powder and white berry juice, and a full kilogram of cracked claw crab meat can be obtained.

The meatloaf kneaded with this minced meat does not have the sour taste of green wheat, but also retains the flavor of crab meat. The deliciousness is beyond doubt.

With large volume and easy storage, Chu Guang awarded the award to its inventor.

As it is a group work, except for the name of the chef's tomato scrambled eggs will be displayed on the Level 1 page of the Hall of Fame, the list of other collaborators will be included in the Level 2 sub-page.

There is no opinion on these collaborators, after all, their names are already in the Hall of Fame.

To give this rare opportunity to the scrambled egg brother, it was originally their own decision after discussion.

Standing at the north gate of the base.

Chu Guang, wearing a power armor, announced the final result of the game in a loud voice, and then raised the wine glass to the crowd in the celebration.

"Celebrate the last day of the old year!"

"Let us toast the harvest of the coming year!"

There were a lot of things I wanted to say.

But looking at the little players with excitement on their faces, Chu Guang suddenly felt that a long story seemed a bit redundant at this time.

Give them the time.

Just be a handsome NPC quietly.

As the voice fell, the bazaar at the north gate instantly burst into cheers, and the wooden wine glasses were raised high.

"ao ao ao!"

"Planning boss is awesome!"

"Wu wu wu, this year's New Year's Day, finally, there is no need to eat takeaway alone !"

"Brother who doesn't exist, you have to eat as if you take off your helmet."

"Okay, don't say it, let's talk about tears falling off."

There are about 500 players who choose to spend the festival in the game, and basically all of them are here.

As for the other 300 players, either in reality, or with their families, it is estimated that they will come back after noon tomorrow.

In addition to the players, the faces of the NPCs who came to the celebration were also full of joy and joy.

It turns out that the celebration is such a happy thing.

It turns out that festivals are such a thing!   Life seems to have new hope, even if they are not aware of it, cultural identity is gradually taking shape in their hearts.

Chu Guang took out the last few barrels of red wine in the inventory and gave everyone a small glass.

Although all of them are divided, Chu Guang does not feel distressed.

For one thing, he has decided to drink less in his life, if he can drink it or not.

One more wine is he snatched from the cellar of the old leech anyway, and it doesn't matter if it is finished.

There will be new ones next year.

"Cheers! Hiccups——"

Xia Boss excitedly held up the wine glass, suffocated with a mouthful, and ran over with a shaky blush and asked Chu Guang if he had any more. It perfectly interprets what it means to eat and love to drink.

The little fish sitting next to the brazier sipped milk, and looked at Xia Yan with some worry, worried that she would faint after drinking herself like the last time.

Yin Fang stared at the wine glass for a while, sniffed it, frowned and drank it, then whispering back to the refuge, and continued busy with his research.

When it was Heya, after drinking one sip, her expression did not change at all, standing there watching the lively players and wastelanders with interest.

For her who grew up in the sanctuary, everything here is so fascinating.

Whether it is DNA or culture.

He gave his cup to Xia Boss, and Chu Guang glanced at the empty cup in her hand with a slightly surprised expression.

"Didn't expect you to drink unexpectedly."

Heya didn't feel anything incomprehensible, as it should be by rights said.

"After all, my liver, stomach and... are all bionic organs, which can be absorbed selectively or not at all."

Chu Guang: "..."

Okay.

That is really a waste.

It’s not just the outpost that celebrates the New Year. After Chu Guang announced the start of the celebration, he issued a task through the VM and selected a few small players to go to the temporary shelter in the abandoned department store for the refugees there. We also sent a New Year's greetings.

Not much stuff.

About 300kg of crab cakes.

Although each person can only get a small 200g crab cake, it is also the meat of a claw crab.

I believe this New Year's gift from Vault 404 should give them a touch of warmth.

……

"Damn it, why can't bear paw stew with catfish soup!"

The celebration has entered the second half, guarding a pot is already cold The fallen black fish soup, his tail squatted heavily on the ground, drawing circles on the snow with branches.

Sisi comforted her and said.

"I don't think there is a problem with the dish itself, maybe there is something wrong with the preparation... Why is the soup stewed black? Do I remember it was not white before?"

"Please don't care about these details."

"No...I think it's better to figure it out."

Eat all the roasted mantis legs while no one is paying attention, and pretend that everything is all Irene, who was sold out, happened to be here.

Seeing the dark dish stuffed with bear paws and fish heads, he couldn't resist taking pleasure in other people's misfortune and joked.

"Are you simmering the meat?"

The tail gave him a dissatisfied look.

"How is it possible! Flesh can talk!"

And that's her mount! It was   hard to tame.

Sisi sighed by the tail, said helplessly.

"It's not a fleshy hand, but it has something to do with fleshy. In short, the tail uses fleshy as bait to draw the hibernating brown bear out of the cave, Emmm... The situation was a bit confusing at the time, so I won’t describe it."

Irena scratched her head: "Uh, although I am curious about the details, shouldn’t I ask more?"

The players around who heard it moved towards Rourou cast a sympathetic look, only the expression on Rourou's face was about to cry.

"Wait a minute, you make it clear, everyone has clearly misunderstood!"

Ignoring the noise of the teammates, the tail is still whispering there.

"Damn it, it tastes okay!"

Sisi patted her shoulder.

"Okay, okay, don't be sad... Ah, it seems to be a mission, and it seems to be a hidden mission. Will Awei come together?"

The task, the tail immediately stood up and said with bright eyes.

"Yes!"

Sisi's face showed the old father's smile.

This kid is too coaxing.

——

(The challenge was fifteen thousand and five failed, and the remaining 5k was not done... I can only save it until tomorrow.)   (End of this chapter)
