Food Hall, in the main hall dedicated to the food god Acacia.
As soon as Lei Yin and Natalie entered, they saw a group of people surrounding a huge chopping board with a sharp knife stuck on it.
This is the event of this year's "Eat Man Election". If you pull out the sharp knife from the chopping board, you can win the grand prize.
"You will never be able to pull it out with brute force alone. If you don't carefully observe the wood texture of the chopping board and have just the right amount of force, you will never be able to pull out the kitchen knife. Because the temperature and moderation of the day will also have an impact, no matter what Why, 'luck' is essential!"
The host introduced it like this, and many people present were eager to give it a try.
Natalie looked at the stage with great interest: "This is the mid-year ceremony of the Food Club, one of the 'Food Festivals'. How about it? Do you want to try it?"
Lei Yin crossed his arms in front of his chest: "Let's take a look first."
"Don't rely on brute force? Don't fool us!" The first person to take the stage was a man with gnarled muscles all over his body. He was a food and bodybuilding coach.
After taking the stage, he held the handle of the knife with both hands, stood on it as if his feet were rooted, and pulled it out with all his strength.
The kitchen knife didn't move at all.
"Damn it! What's going on? You can't move at all." The bodybuilding coach looked annoyed. The kitchen knife inserted into the chopping board was far more stable than he imagined.
He failed and walked off the stage a little disappointed.
After passing a dozen challengers, their level was not as good as that of a bodybuilding coach, and the kitchen knife did not even move half a millimeter.
"Is it that difficult? Let me try!" A slightly hoarse voice sounded, and a man as thin as a bamboo pole with a pockmarked face came forward.
Even though he is thin, he is a famous local strongman, skinny and pockmarked. It is said that he can lift more than two tons with one hand.
It is in line with that sentence: Don't look at me thin, my bones are full of meat.
"As for Mr. Asako, it should be no problem."
"Well, I think so too. It should be him this year."
In the midst of everyone's discussion, Shou Mazi walked up to the stage with a confident look on his face. He held the handle of the knife with both hands and pulled it out with all his strength.
The kitchen knife remained motionless.
"What?"
"How can it be?"
Seeing that he didn't succeed, Mazi looked unwilling and tried several times in succession, but still got the same result.
At this time, everyone finally doubted themselves.
Originally, everyone thought that whoever was stronger could pull it out and win the grand prize, but that was not the case at all.
Is it really like the host said, not relying on brute force, but relying on skill?
So more people eagerly tried it, but the results were the same.
At this moment, the ground in the hall trembled and trembled.
"What's wrong?"
"The ground, was there an earthquake?"
"Everyone, run!"
Just as everyone was in a mess, they saw a man walking towards the door of the hall.
This person is over four meters tall, with broad shoulders and a round waist, more than twice as tall as an average human being.
Perhaps because of his weight, the ground around him trembled slightly with every step he took.
"You bunch of losers, this year's lottery ticket still belongs to me!"
The four-meter man said arrogantly as he walked onto the stage. Due to the pressure of his height and weight, everyone actually made way for them.
The four-meter-old man named Si Zhuangmen has developed gigantism since he was a child due to excessive secretion of growth hormone. In addition, his food intake is much higher than that of ordinary people, which is why his figure has become like this. He won the food festival "Eating Man Election" event last year and the year before last.
In fact, the host is right. The kitchen knife inserted into the chopping board is a blunt knife, and it is inserted into it at a tricky angle by specialized personnel. If ordinary people want to pull it out, they must carefully observe the cutting board. Texture, find the right angle to succeed.
Although that is said, there are exceptions. For example, this Si-shaped door never studies any textures or angles, but relies on brute force to succeed.
If you are strong enough, you can pull it out regardless of texture or angle. It can be seen that his strength is greater than that of Pockmarked Skinny. Specialized personnel have tested him. His strength with one hand is about six tons. If he uses his full strength with both hands, it can exceed ten tons.
Si Zhuangmen is also a well-known powerful food hunter in the local area. He can kill a monster with a capture level of around level 20 with one punch.
His face was full of confidence, thinking that this year he would be able to get it done easily like the previous two years, but when he grasped it and applied force, his expression changed on the spot.
Not at all as easy as it was two years ago.
After trying several times, it still didn't work. Then he put both hands up and used all his strength. In the end, he was even sweating, but the kitchen knife still didn't move at all.
"Damn it! Damn it! What the hell is going on!" Si Zhuangmen was very unwilling to do so, and actually started to tease him from different angles.
The kitchen knife seemed to be on top and still didn't move.
"Hey, uncle, if it doesn't work, let me try, okay?"
At this time, a young man with a slightly delicate face walked up on the stage and said to Si Zhuangmen.
"Where did you get this brat who overestimates his capabilities? Get out of the way!" Si Zhuangmen, with a sinister face and a bad mood, yelled at the young man.
The young man is Lei Yin.
After hearing his rude words, Lei Yin punched him directly in the chest.
The next moment, there was only a muffled sound of "bang", and the figure of Sizhuangmen flew backwards and flew directly out of the hall.
The people watching were stunned for a while.
Si Zhuangmen's several-ton body flew out like a ball?
Are you kidding me? !
What’s even more shocking is what’s behind.
Then, Lei Yin leaned down, held the kitchen knife with one hand, and pulled it out easily.
"Wha, what?"
"Ah?"
"Nani?"
Everyone's mouths were wide open, they couldn't believe what was happening in front of them.
Lei Yin went up and used that force, naturally without considering the texture, angle and other factors.
In other words, he pulled it out completely relying on strength.
Si Zhuangmen is a famously powerful food hunter. He can exert more than ten tons of strength with both hands. This young man can do it easily with one hand.
Is it difficult to say that the strength of one of his hands exceeds 20 tons?
In fact, it was far beyond their imagination.
After a long while, the host seemed to wake up from the shock: "The baby has happened! This year's Food Boy has been selected! This gentleman won the inner courtyard's food stamps for one year as a prize. Then, the next step is to grow in the inner courtyard. There are hundreds of thousands of gourmet fir trees, collectively called gourmet trees, and among its fruits, only one is a winning fruit, so everyone comes and looks for it!”
After Lei Yin and Natalie received the reward, everyone returned to the Gourmet Cedar Forest to find another reward...
