Pokémon, but cultural invasion.

"What's going on? They just took it like that?"

"Is this for real? Is the Electric Frog some kind of micro-management master?"

"You'd be better off believing I'm Arceus than believing that its fat hands can perform micro-manipulation."

The next two Xeno'jiiva and Mismagius displayed unparalleled precision, accurately taking the cooked meat.

Compared to other live streaming rooms, Qishu's team seems to have completely skipped the "frying meat" step, giving viewers a direct impression.

Viewers who watched the live stream from the beginning have already noticed that the difficulty of this game is significantly reduced by skipping just one step.

The fewer steps, the less likely you are to make mistakes.

How exactly does she manage to get all the Pokémon to eat so precisely?

As more and more questions and doubts arose in the live chat, Qi Shu quickly glanced at them and replied:

"It's actually very simple. The raw meat in this game can't be put into the plate. You just need to hold a plate in your hand when you take the meat."

Even lettuce must be chopped before being placed on the plate.

The overly simplistic answer left the audience bewildered.

"That's it?"

"No wonder the Pokémon are all carrying plates."

"Everyone should have noticed this, but the fact that the host was able to think of how to use it in such a short time shows he's a real talent."

While solving the meat-frying step is a significant advantage, it's far from enough to catch up with or even widen the gap with others.

The constant stream of orders refreshing the menu is putting immense pressure on us.

Kishu was in charge of the final assembly of the burgers, and she found herself spending far too much time looking at the menu and following the instructions.

Furthermore, running around between different material collection points significantly slowed down efficiency.

If we were to let the Pokémon help out and remove them from their assigned posts, the kitchen would descend into utter chaos.

There is no doubt about this.

Qi Shu could see the drawing of hell without even thinking.

She pondered for a moment and said, "Don't look at the menu anymore. We only make four kinds of burgers."

In most orders, bread, steak, and lettuce are the standard combination, while tomatoes and cheese may be added or removed.

Qi Shu felt that if she kept looking at a menu and making a hamburger, she would never catch up with Lulina and Xiaojuer.

Let's get the production line up and running first, and deal with the small number of special orders later.

"Has the streamer given up? The next burger won't have any tomatoes."

"This is fast, but what about the orders?"

"I'm saying the streamer is a true expert, you guys who are just playing online, so stop giving orders."

Having witnessed how Kiju worked, some viewers developed a strange trust in him.

Regardless of accuracy, the speed at which the Qishu team makes hamburgers is truly unmatched.

The Pokémon no longer needed to consider ingredient ratios, so they were no longer confused and began to produce hamburgers like an assembly line.

Soon, the floor and counter were filled with finished hamburgers.

These finished products do not match the requirements on the order, so it would be fair to call them prefabricated.

Quanshu, who was in charge of the explanation, suddenly brightened up.

"Oh, pre-made meals have appeared so quickly?"

Chapter 100 Teacher, Teacher, why is my Pokémon's friendship level decreasing?

Wanlong asked curiously, "What are pre-made dishes?"

"These are fast foods that require heating, with a production date before the consumption date."

Izumi added, "Some convenient foods that trainers use during wilderness trips also fall into the category of pre-prepared meals."

Wanlong immediately understood.

"The hamburgers produced by the owner of Qishu are not for specific customers and are made early, so they are called pre-made. It's quite an interesting way to put it."

"So what are the benefits of pre-cooked meals? It seems we can already see the effects."

Viewers, following the director's perspective, discovered that the Qishu team served dishes faster than everyone else.

The electric frog, carrying plates of hamburgers on its head, was sent to the food counter, and the scoreboard numbers jumped every few seconds.

"This doesn't make sense! Qishu didn't even follow the menu, how could they still serve food?"

"No, if you look closely at the four types of burgers they made, they cover most of the ones that appeared on the order list."

"That's clever. Dishes prepared in advance won't disappear; they'll eventually reappear in the list, increasing efficiency without wasting food."

"This is so evil, pre-made food."

Although Qishu's score increase wasn't fast, compared to other players, it was like a rocket launch.

Completely bewildered, Lulina and Xiaoju'er watched the barrage of warnings mixed with mysterious terms like "pre-made dishes," "raw steaks," and "don't look at the menu," having no idea what was going on.

But they knew that Qishu was working on the flower arrangement, and that it was working very well.

Who is the most likely winner of this "Chef King Competition"?

Cynthia, with the bond of a championship team, deserves to win.

Depending on the situation, it's also possible that Kiku, who is skilled in volt substitution tactics and is known for her speed, could be the one to play.

Could it be Lulina, who is fiercely competitive and whose style is as turbulent as the ocean waves?

Holy crap, why is it a strange tree?

By the time Lulina and Xiaoju figured out what method the other had used, Qishu's progress in clearing the level was already far ahead of theirs.

Her Pokémon have also gained more experience in how to utilize the mechanics.

The audience realized that if the two couldn't come up with any new crazy moves, it would be difficult to catch up.

Since neither of them plays games much, it's obviously impossible for them to suddenly find a shortcut to beat the game.

There were spies constantly tipping them off in the comments, so both of them knew that Qishu's progress was far ahead of theirs.

This is unacceptable to Lulina and Xiaojuer.

What's the point of defeating your opponent if you can't get first place?

With Qi Shu far ahead, it would be pointless for the two of them to keep competing in the same place.

However, it must be admitted that this streamer's understanding of the gaming field is obviously much deeper than theirs.

Xiao Ju was the first to lose heart.

She wanted to encourage the team to give it another shot while things were still uncertain.

But when she turned around, Xiaoju noticed that the electric dragon, electric spider, and lightning zebra were all intently staring at the screen, their eyes showing some tension.

The electric flying squirrel was still sulking because she had said something to it about its mistake earlier, so it turned its back to her.

Xiao Ju couldn't help but reflect that this was originally just a relaxing game.

It is a trainer's fault to make Pokémon give their all and not be able to enjoy the game properly because of her.

Her and Lurina's competitive spirit shouldn't affect the Pokémon.

When it comes to games, the most important thing is that everyone has fun together.

With the suspense over who would win first place over, Xiaoju really had no desire to continue competing.

During the loading screen of the level, she said to the Pokémon:

"For the next level, we won't compete on speed. Just make sure we can pass. Let's all have fun together."

"Buka?"

The electric flying squirrel turned its rear end around and looked at Little Chrysanthemum with surprise. It had long wanted to try making a hamburger by itself.

Completely relaxing the restrictions would have devastating consequences.

The Pokémon unleashed their creativity, turning Kiyomi's kitchen into complete chaos.

Scattered ingredients on the ground, a half-finished cutting board, a pot on fire...

What left Xiaoju speechless was that the electric dragon and the electric spider started arguing because of a mismatch in their coordination.

They were chattering away in Pokémon language, their tone intense, almost as if they were about to start a fight.

Thunder Zebra was the one who most wanted to pass the test, becoming a troubleshooter running around constantly, always wearing a mask of pain on its face.

Xiaoju's blood pressure kept rising. She clearly wanted to make everyone happy, but why did a small conflict still occur in the team?

Lulina received news that Xiaoju'er's kitchen next door had completely given up on itself.

As she looked at the Water-type Pokémon, the same thought welled up in her mind.

Since we can't get first place at a game demo event, instead of fighting for a meaningless second place, let's let the Pokémon have fun.

Thus, Lulina's kitchen also headed towards the abyss.

To make matters worse, later levels mostly added effects that interfered with the players' movement.

On the pirate ship, the surging waves caused the ship to shake violently, making the character sway left and right as if drunk.

On the hot air balloon, the hurricane blew the two rows of unsecured wooden cabinets, and some unlucky children inevitably lost their footing and fell from the sky.

In the volcanic lava, the cooking utensils move along with the individual stone blocks, and Pokémon with slower reactions can't even touch the cooking pot.

The viewers watched the two chaotic live streams and listened to the Pokémon's hearty laughter, completely unprepared for how the match was going.

"That's not how it works! You two should stick it out until the very last moment and decide who is the real top star!"

"Oh no, the Berserker Turtle's laugh is so stupid, it made me laugh too."

"A truly family-friendly game, I look forward to playing with my Pokémon."

"Come on, even Gym Leaders have a hard time maintaining teamwork. You've already succeeded if you don't fight with your Pokémon."

"Garuda seems to have broken the controller. It tried to sneak into Gastrodon's controller but got scolded by Cynthia and is sulking now."

Surprisingly, Xiaoxia was the most popular among the several live streams.

As the competition shifts from serious rivalry to lighthearted entertainment, viewers begin to anticipate what new tricks Psyduck will come up with.

As a troublemaker who infiltrated the team at the beginning of the competition, he was jokingly called the "traitor" and the "best eighth man" by the audience, which was quite amusing.

Most importantly, every time Psyduck does something bad, it either has a blank "I don't know" expression or looks pitiful and wronged.

Xiaoxia doesn't buy into that. If she plays well, she gets verbal praise, but if she causes trouble, she gets a flick on the head.

She no longer cares about her public image; all she wants is to lower her blood pressure.

With the competition more than halfway through, the game itself was also launched on the Gear platform at the peak of its popularity.

Eager players will get their hands on it, download it, and be eager to play with their Pokémon.

I then realized that this game was completely different from what I had imagined.

The reason why the gym leaders look relaxed on screen is because they have an extraordinary rapport with their Pokémon.

For ordinary players, the more complex levels become overwhelming.

"Director Izumi, why did my friendship level with my Pokémon decrease instead of increase after playing this game for a while? Do you have any clue about this?"

Quanshu read out a frequently appearing comment.

He said innocently, "Maybe the original friendship level wasn't high. I suggest you bring your Pokémon a few more comfort bells and take your child out for a few good meals."

"If all else fails, try completing the game. Everything will be alright after you finish it."

Less than an hour after Overcooked was released, the sentiment in the comments section underwent a dramatic shift.

Before the game's official release and during the demo livestream, it received rave reviews.
