To ascend, I had no choice but to create games-Chapter 508 - 299: Farewell (Part 1)
Chapter 508: Chapter 299: Farewell (Part 1)
Entering the grand hall of the Food God Sect, Wu Wei still felt a bit surreal.
He felt like he had just participated in an event without much thought, and unexpectedly became the Food God under the watchful eyes of thousands.
This feeling was even less reliable than winning five million in the lottery.
The forums were abuzz with discussions about this matter, but fortunately, Wu Wei only lurked without posting, so he wasn’t at risk, but it still gave him some scares.
His low profile before fame had become his camouflage, giving him a sense of security.
Moreover, he hadn’t expected “God of Cookery” the game to attract so much attention, and he became famous out of the blue.
...
Now, it’s time to experience the game’s storyline.
Inside the Sect, even a cup of tea was a level seven delicacy; the snacks on the plates looked like something he couldn’t afford.
The spacious grand hall was shrouded in immortal energy, with celestial music wafting through the air. Behind each person stood a Disciple of the Celestial Sect, ready to serve and fulfill any request made to them.
In the expansive reception room, besides him, there were three others.
One was Fang Cheng, the head of Fang Cheng Studio, who had been admiring the Spirit Grass on the table since he arrived, praising it as he observed.
It was clear that he really loved planting.
Qian Xiaohao from the Gourmet Alliance was also here, looking at Wu Wei with dissatisfaction.
It seemed like he was unhappy because the title of Food God, which he surely thought was his, had been taken by Wu Wei.
However, his attention was soon drawn by Fang Cheng, as he walked over and whispered something, complaining about the game, urging “you can’t play like this,” “open the cash shop wider,” “everyone is making money, why should you earn less. Can’t you take care of the wealthy players?”
Watching Qian Xiaohao like this, Wu Wei felt that the gap between people was even bigger than that of orangutans.
Gong Gong was quite honest. Initially, she was also dissatisfied, but with one glance from Fang Cheng, she stopped complaining and didn’t dare say another word.
Since Gong Gong was an employee of Fang Cheng Studio, from the small to the big, Wu Wei could tell that Fang Cheng Studio must be pretty strict. What Gong Gong had done, he didn’t know.
After a short wait, a Disciple gracefully approached and said to the four of them, “This way, please.”
Following the Disciple, Wu Wei discovered that the interior of the Food God Sect was even bigger than he had imagined.
From the outside, it was already an area covering hundreds of square kilometers, but the space inside was ridiculously big.
The interior corridors wound back and forth, with a never-ending display of buildings and a variety of unseen foods everywhere, leaving Wu Wei constantly amazed.
Game design is all about reuse; other games would use the same boss hundreds of times, and if a building wasn’t reused at least a dozen times, it was considered negligence.

And the more beautiful ones had to be reused even more, with art costs needing to be defrayed by repetition, at most with a color change.
But it was clear that they didn’t play that trick here; all items were seen for the first time, and the scenery was several times more beautiful than the outside world, which made Wu Wei even more impressed with the deep pockets and capriciousness of Fang Cheng Studio.
It seemed they were heading downward, but the corridor arrangement was exceptional. They did not encounter a single stairway all the way, and before they knew it, they were at the bottom floor.
Stopping in front of a luxuriously made door, the Disciple who had led them said, “Please enter one by one, the Supreme Elder has some words for each of you.”
Qian Xiaohao and Gong Gong were invited in. After they came out, both were silent and contemplative.
Wu Wei was third in line. When he entered, he saw there were no electric lights, only a night pearl on the ceiling that emitted a faint light, barely allowing one to see the surroundings.
A huge shadow sat in front, with several elders of the Food God Sect standing by, and the solemn atmosphere made Wu Wei vaguely uneasy, yet he couldn’t pinpoint the source of this unease.
In the darkness, someone was quietly observing him.
After a moment, a voice rang out, “Really just a common man.”
Another voice also emerged from the darkness, “But he did a good job.”
“He also has a commendable temperament, but it’s a pity…”
“Yes, what a pity…”
Stirred by these words, the figures lurking in the dark emitted a chorus of sighs, leaving Wu Wei a bit confused.
Finally, the Supreme Elder seated at the head said, “Wu Wei, in this assessment of the Food God, your performance was outstanding. You truly deserve the title. Do you have any other requests? The Food God Sect can satisfy them as well.”
“I don’t think so,” Wu Wei hesitantly replied.
“Are you sure?”
“Well… I do have one. But I’m not sure if I should bring it up?”
“Speak your mind without hesitation.”
Taking a deep breath, Wu Wei said, “I’ve always felt that monopolizing ingredients isn’t quite right. As you’ve seen, the profits from the monopoly have driven people here to chase monopolies wildly, which leads to rising food prices and common people being almost cut off from fine foods. So, I think we shouldn’t monopolize anymore, and some of the management rights should still be handed over to the Food God Sect.”
There was silence in the secret chamber for a while before someone said, “We have been neglectful in this regard, it can be done. Actually, there’s an even better method. How about you monopolize it?”
“No, no, no!” Wu Wei immediately jumped up and said, “I know myself well, I’m especially unable to resist temptation, it might be even worse if I took over.”
