Chapter 139 - 47: Astonishing Appetite

Su Xiaocai accepted everyone’s friend requests without hesitation and added them to her contact list.

Who knows, these people might shine in various fields in the future. If anything unexpected happens or issues arise, a shout in the friend circle might solve everything.

After the excitement, and after being socially active, it’s naturally time to call it a day.

Su Xiaocai quickly told her teammates about her instructor’s bet with Captain Tai. If they won, there’d be a treat for supper.

Fan Li genuinely praised, "That was amazing." If it were him, he wouldn’t have been able to do better.

Captain Tai nodded, "Not bad. Why did you quit yourself first, otherwise, the win would have been attributed to you?"

"I’m not an official team member. Winning doesn’t get me any rewards, so it’s better if a teammate wins."

That makes sense.

The person who won didn’t feel the joy of winning. Ji Heng, feeling numb, shut himself in.

Su Xiaocai got him to show off on the Insect Man’s head, something he could’ve never imagined doing in a lifetime.

With everyone watching, that cringe-worthy speech made him want to dig a hole with his toes.

His face’s shame threshold was getting a new low. He needed some peace.

"Instructor Tai, setting everything else aside, I’m so hungry, supper, supper," Wu Qingqing thought, daring to bet with my mentor, I’ll eat you to poverty.

"Wait a moment." Instructor Tai said a few words to the team he was leading, then took them to the officer’s dining hall.

The seven of them were very curious about what a soldier’s supper looked like.

The only cafeteria students usually went to was the one used by ordinary soldiers.

The officer’s dining hall was obviously much better than the regular soldier’s dining hall.

The self-service dishes were plentiful, making the students envious.

Rather than supper, it could be considered a regular meal.

The buffet style was all-inclusive.

Captain Tai paid for seven people’s meals, "Help yourselves."

"Tsk, with the buffet style, we definitely will," Hu Ping didn’t hold back, as he wanted to soothe his soul with food. When Xue Huiyi stepped on him earlier, he wanted so much to retaliate with a punch.

But doing that would be considered mutual fighting and not worth the consequence.

Now the team’s score is the highest, and if there was a fight, the team would definitely lose points.

The seven of them swarmed in to get the food, like locusts, clearing out the dishes wherever they passed.

Fan Li was worried, "Can you finish all that? If not, you have to pay extra."

Hu Ping, with a mix of charm, laziness, and disdain, said, "This is nothing; if we can’t finish, we have the winner to help, he consumes a lot."

The resentment overflowed massively! Almost becoming tangible.

Hu Ping really disliked Xue Huiyi, so he decided to take out his anger on his friend this time.

Ji Heng smiled wryly and quietly reduced the amount of food on his plate.

Su Xiaocai, on the other hand, picked a little of everything to try.

After selecting their food, they sat at the table closest to where they got the food, eating and commenting on the dishes.

Then they talked about the game again. Today’s simulation site was somewhat similar to a scene in the game, also surrounded by Insect Men. However, in the game, they haven’t cleared that level yet and don’t even know how many times they’ve died.

"Caicai, if it were you, how would you clear the level?"

Su Xiaocai, her mouth full of food, chewed slowly and swallowed before saying, "In real life, report it up early on and have troops sent. In the game, sacrifice teammates to break through, although you can also report in the game, and the system may provide reinforcements. Haven’t you tried that?"

"That’s even possible?"

"Of course, games are never limited to one way of playing. Especially in the hard mode you’re playing now, you can dispatch troops at any time, but ten thousand people is the limit; more than that, and the system can’t handle it."

Those massive universe-level battles with millions or even tens of millions of participants only happen when facing genocide-level crises.

It’s not necessary.

"Wow, how could you think of that?" Liu Xun rubbed his forehead, feeling that continuing to play "Extraordinary Island" will eventually make him bald.

There are so many ways to play; every time they want to win, they have to rack their brains.

"What game are you talking about? It sounds very much like a war game."

"More than just a war game."

They’re eager to promote Su Xiaocai’s game further. Su Xiaocai mentioned that as long as they continue to be testers, once the game company makes a profit, they can receive 0.5% of the profit as part of her shares.

Consider it as being a part of the shareholders.

The more profit the company earns, the more they can split.

Of course, they have to do everything they can to promote the game.

Captain Tai was increasingly interested, "Is it really possible to achieve a synchronous war with ten thousand people?"

It’s important to realize that in games, gathering ten thousand people is easy, but it’s different when each instance has ten thousand game characters working together.

The military has always been looking for games like this, yet despite even the most advanced artificial intelligence technology today, such large-scale operation is unachievable.
