Chapter 56: Division of Labor and Cooperation!
【？？？？？】
[Holy crap! It's haunted! The voice suddenly changed! Who the hell are you?]
【Who are you, Peach? My earphones seem to be leaking electricity!】
[“I promise”, “I will follow orders”, “I will absolutely not run away”—Too many elements, reported!]
[Call the police! There's a scam here! Who was it that just said they'd take you flying?!]
[Master of Face Changing! An extraordinary skill!]
[Master: I received a scam voice message from an unknown number!]
One second she's saying "Cricket, me!" and the next she's saying "Master!"... Peach, where's your dignity?! (Laughing so hard)
[That delicate, almost seductive voice... how could I possibly refuse, Master? Who could resist this?!]
[Master, run! It's a trap!!]
The fact that Peach suddenly pinched the peach like that really surprised and delighted the fans in the live stream.
Da Zhuang from next door, upon seeing the message Tao Zi sent...
He was all talk and no action.
"See? My apprentice is still very well-behaved. As soon as this new game came out, he wanted to play it with his master."
As he spoke, Dazhuang opened the group chat.
Meanwhile, Peach had already opened the Steam Engine platform and was taking a closer look at the gameplay and introduction.
And that opening promotional PV, it's clear they think they've completely mastered the actual gameplay of this game.
"Hehe, this Overcooked game from Insomnia Games really appealed to me. I'm going to have a sweet duo match with Master Chef later!"
Since Overcooked can be played online.
Of course, besides my precious apprentice, I also need to find a few companions to join me!
And so, Dazhuang raised his banner.
He recruited several familiar friends together.
These individuals, without any surprise, all of them had severely harmed each other in Human: Fall Flat.
For example, Sanren, Taozi, and Brother A are some of my acquaintances.
Four people came in total!
Since Dazhuang had already stumbled through the basic teaching stage and felt that he had mastered the core technology, he waved his hand and decided to skip the novice process!
Lead the team directly to challenge higher difficulty levels.
To show off his skills, he even switched to a gamepad!
He was preparing to show off in front of his apprentices and brothers.
Sanren, the most experienced veteran among the four!
Looking at the few people in the group who were eager to try, I could already feel an unbreakable bond between us.
Brother A, on the other hand, maintained the caution and confusion typical of a newcomer.
The four-person team entered the game with almost no communication and a tacit understanding.
……
The scene then cuts to two food trucks driving side by side appearing on the screen.
The background is a highway that is constantly receding.
All four were born in the dining car below, and the small space instantly felt crowded.
"Beep beep! Ready, set—"
The countdown and the sound of a car engine started simultaneously, instantly building up the tension!
"Wow, this level is something else!" (Big)
Zhuang looked at the kitchen work area, which was divided into two floors, as well as the extra conveyor belt and complicated space.
My heart skipped a beat, but I couldn't back down verbally:
"No problem! Just follow my instructions!"
In the footage, the four chefs are all busy with their own tasks.
Dazhuang stood in front of the stove, deep in thought, while Sanren had already picked up a kitchen knife and was gesturing at the air.
Brother A, at a loss, spun around in circles.
As for peaches...
At that moment, she was excitedly holding a fire extinguisher and spraying it into the air twice, having a great time.
"Master, how do I play this level?"
Peach's voice came through the headphones.
"This fire extinguisher feels great! Sizzle!"
"Peach—!" Da Zhuang exclaimed, facepalming.
"Put down the fire extinguisher! That's not a toy!"
"Looking at the comments, the viewers are all saying you're definitely going to mess with me later."
Peach was furious! She was indignant!
"Hmph! What do the comments section know!"
"I was just familiarizing myself with the fire equipment beforehand, to prevent any potential problems! Don't wrongly accuse an innocent person, sir. When have I ever tricked you while playing online?"
"what?"
Instantly, I heard Da Zhuang and Brother A speaking in unison through my headphones:
"When has it ever been without a pitfall?!"
Dazhuang quickly interrupted this dangerous recollection: "Alright, alright, let's do as instructed!"
"Alright, alright! Follow orders! Peach, you're in my group, go down to the vegetable cutting area!"
"San-ge, you and A-ge will be in charge of preparing the ingredients, cooking, and serving!"
"Everyone, remember the process: get the ingredients, chop them, cook the food, plate it, and serve!"
"Be careful with the heat; use a fire extinguisher if it catches fire!"
"Peach's talking to you! Stop playing around."
The four-minute countdown began mercilessly amidst the commotion!
The first ten seconds exhibited an eerie harmony.
Sanren was the first to come to the stove to preheat it, Dazhuang skillfully picked up the tomatoes, and Taozi was also selecting vegetables in the preparation room.
Brother A followed behind Sanren.
"See, it's easy!" Dazhuang breathed a sigh of relief. "This one's in the bag."
"That's right!!"
As Taozi chopped the cabbage, she tossed the cabbage into the opposite carriage.
"Hehe, Master, it's just cooking, it's not difficult at all, it's too easy, okay?"
I've never encountered a game like this where you cook together in a cooperative way before.
Not to mention Da Zhuang, even casual diners were happy in the side dish area.
This pleasant feeling of cooperation only lasted for a short while.
The harmonious atmosphere came to an abrupt end just as the first order was about to be placed.
"Hey hey hey!! Where's my meat?"
A passenger in the upper carriage shouted as he looked at the empty pot.
"I gave it to you!" Peach's voice was full of innocence.
"I just handed it to you... Wait, what's this in my hand?"
She looked at the fire extinguisher that had somehow appeared in her hand and fell into deep thought.
"Bullshit! I didn't see any meat at all!"
"Peach, quickly take the vegetables from the cutting board over there!!"
Dazhuang urged.
"Here it comes!"
Peach was flustered and grabbed the chopped cabbage, then slid it across the table with a swift motion.
They slid directly off the vehicle.
"Fire! The stove is on fire!"
A-Ge's exclamation came through the earphones again.
"Fire extinguisher! Fire extinguisher! Quick, quick, quick!"
"The lone man shouted."
Peach instantly became excited: "Finally, it's my turn! Watch me!"
"Peach, where's your food?"
"Master, I'm not bad at this!!"
The entire kitchen instantly descended into chaos and turmoil. "Sure?" Who the hell said "sure"?
The comments section was instantly filled with laughter at Da Zhuang and his group's antics.
Damn. Does anyone remember what they said before the game started?
[The key to success is stability; this time, we've secured our position.]
The moment I saw the peaches, I knew I was going to lose!
[Tsk tsk tsk!]
[This is hilarious! Serve the food! Stop playing with that broken fire extinguisher!]
[That frisbee handling was absolutely amazing! Zhuang, you only have San as a true teammate.]
【Oh my god, is it silver-plated?】
[Even if Zhuang Ge is a level 10 frisbee pro, he can't do anything about this.]
