The banquet was extravagant and grand.
However, when Soulmate served a cabbage stew that looked like slop, the noisy venue fell silent several times.
"Sorry, I have something to attend to. I’ll be leaving now," Feng Gangpao said as he leaned on his cane and hurriedly opened the door, escaping like someone fleeing a disaster.
"Sorry, I just remembered I left the door at home unlocked. I need to go," Luhan added.
"...My wife is having an episode; I need to check on her!"
"My mom is about to have a second child..."
"My car insurance is about to expire..."
"…"
Faced with the stinginess of Li Hong and Sweet Potato Films, even these big shots couldn't take it anymore.
This damn food, which resembled pig slop, would surely upset their stomachs!
Outside, the media reporters witnessed a chaotic scene.
Those glamorous stars, each with an extraordinary presence, rushed out like they were fleeing from a disaster. Then they crouched by the roadside, retching uncontrollably.
Just as the reporters approached to interview them, these individuals swiftly hopped into their cars and sped away.
Before leaving, each one of them uttered a parting remark.
"From now on, Sweet Potato is doomed!"
Looking at everyone leaving, Soulmate was quite puzzled.
What did it mean that they walked out just as he had brought the dishes out?
"Boss, what's going on?" Lu Mao hurriedly approached and asked.
"You ask me? How would I know!"
Li Hong was equally baffled, completely unaware of what had gotten into those people.
Staring at a large stainless steel pot filled to the brim with Cabbage Soup, Li Hong's expression was blank.
What was he supposed to do with so much Cabbage Soup?
...
A grand farce ultimately ended with this absurd result. In the end, everyone consumed an entire three pots of Cabbage Soup.
If it weren't for the fact that several had gone bad, they might have been eating cabbage for even longer. After all, Li Hong had bought over a thousand pounds of cabbage in one go.
Fortunately, those who were scared off by the Cabbage Soup didn't speak ill of it. Perhaps it was due to some indescribable sentiment; they all responded to the Media Reporter’s curiosity with "no comment."
Of course, their remark about "Sweet Potato being blacklisted for life" naturally drew attention.
What exactly did Sweet Potato Films do to be so widely disliked? This became a new unsolved mystery in the entertainment industry.
"Alright, alright, you should be able to relax now, right?" 404 asked grumpily while squatting on the table in front of Li Hong.
Li Hong knew exactly what was bothering him; it was simply that they had been delayed for too long.
"Fine, fine, what is it?"
404 sighed in resignation. "I mentioned this to you before, but I didn't think you'd take it lightly. Alright, let me give you a brief introduction. This time, you're going to the Celestial Buddha World to take out someone using a Cultivation Acceleration Plug-in."
"Oh, oh, oh, I see. Let's go then," Li Hong replied casually.
"Sorry, but I have to remind you that this mission carries a very high danger level. Because... we've encountered another bug..."
Li Hong's previously confident demeanor deflated like a punctured balloon as he anxiously asked, "Why are there so many bugs? What went wrong this time?"
"Oh, it's not a big issue. The Database experienced an anomaly, and we currently can't modify or add anything to it."
"Speak in plain language..." Li Hong said while rubbing his forehead irritably.
It was truly absurd to expect a clueless loser writer to understand these things.
404 smacked his lips and explained, "In simple terms, you can't modify anything in the world for now, nor can you issue Account Bans."
"Then how am I supposed to kill the cheater? Damn it."
404 shrugged helplessly and said, "People are complaining that your Cheat Code is too powerful; we're just adapting to the trend here. Besides, it'll be fixed soon."
"Let's go; we'll be back quickly. I'll teach you what to do when the time comes."
As 404 finished speaking, a dark passage suddenly appeared behind Li Hong.
"Let's go, this is the Celestial Buddha World. It's a higher level, so there are no whirlpools here," 404 explained as it climbed onto Li Hong's head.
Li Hong squinted, deep in thought.
He stepped into the passage and instantly found himself on a hill covered in yellow sand.
"You can't account ban for now, so just find a way to eliminate that cheater. The target is four hundred miles ahead of you; hurry and get closer," 404 instructed.
Li Hong glanced at the village below with curling smoke rising from it and asked thoughtfully, "Is this really the Celestial Buddha World? What a joke. There are mortals here; where are the celestial beings?"
"Don't be ridiculous. This is the mortal realm, so of course, there are mostly mortals."
Li Hong responded with an "oh" and began walking down the hill.
Even though 404 had already informed him of the target's location, he decided to scout the area first.
With his extraordinary physique, Li Hong had little to worry about in this world; he could just walk freely.
After taking a few steps, Li Hong curiously asked 404, "By the way, why haven't I seen Motor Lola around lately?"
"Oh, she's been busy. She's the core intelligence of the entire Main God Space; she can't just come out to have fun."
Core intelligence?
Li Hong was puzzled by this strange terminology. However, he understood that Motor Lola didn't seem to be a true life form but rather something akin to artificial intelligence. Moreover, she played a significant role in the Main God Space.
Before Li Hong could continue his thoughts, a peculiar creature suddenly appeared in a hollow ahead.
It was called a monster because it resembled the creatures that Li Hong had envisioned in his mind, almost identical in appearance. If there was any difference, it was a significant one.
The monster in his mind resided on a long, narrow island, capable of causing buildings to collapse with its every move. However, the creature before him was merely a miniature version.
Just as Li Hong was about to step forward and greet it, a strange figure emerged from the path leading down from the hollow.
An old man dressed like a farmer was struggling to walk up the mountain path with an elderly woman on his back. The woman’s face was pale, and she coughed incessantly, clearly suffering from a severe illness.
In just a few steps, he reached the monster.
Upon seeing the Old Farmer, the monster smiled in a surprisingly human-like manner, then fixed its gaze silently on the ground beneath it.
Following the monster's line of sight, the Old Farmer noticed a broken wooden puppet lying there.
"Is it broken?" he asked with a smile.
The monster lifted its head and nodded blankly.
Li Hong, who was about to come down, hesitated and stopped in his tracks as uncertainty flickered in his eyes.
The Old Farmer gently set the elderly woman down and helped her sit on a large rock before cheerfully saying, "I am The Carpenter of the Village. Let me take a look at that."
He pulled out several tools he carried with him and began to work with a series of clinks and clanks. As the sun began to set and dusk approached, the carpenter finally finished repairing the broken puppet.
Handing it back to the monster, the Old Farmer smiled and said, "Next time it breaks, come find me down at the village. I can fix this."
The Old Farmer glanced at the colors and hoisted the old woman onto his back, preparing to set off again.
However, at that moment, a strange hand reached out to stop him.
The creature's eyes were clear, and it raised a finger, pointing at the old woman behind the Old Farmer. In a crisp, childlike voice, it said, "This... I can fix!"
Then, to the Old Farmer's astonishment, the creature's hand brushed across the old woman's pale face.
A flash of white light passed by, and the sound of her incessant coughing suddenly ceased. Her face, once tormented and ashen, regained a healthy hue.
Before the Old Farmer could react, a gasp echoed from the mountaintop, accompanied by hurried footsteps.
"What the hell, Old Military Doctor! Save me!"
