Chapter 710

The whole venue was shocked; everyone's gaze was fixed firmly on the pile of red fruits and vegetables that had appeared.

Looking at it, it was all a sea of red, dazzling, brilliant, making one dizzy.

Where did so many red ingredients come from?

Finding so many red ingredients in less than twenty minutes?

Did he rob a cold storage warehouse somewhere!

Numerous players thought one after another.

Having clearly thought Lin Ye was finished and would fail, the result was another reversal at the last moment, turning the situation around in one fell swoop and reversing the outcome.

This turn of events exceeded everyone's expectations.

"Beautiful."

A player shouted out.

"Brother Zero did a beautiful job!"

"Brother Zero, awesome, blowing my mind."

"Pink fruits, guarding against the organizers' final right of interpretation, hahahaha..."

"Trying to play tricks on our Brother Zero, you're just too far off."

……

……

By now,

many of Lin Ye's previous actions had been explained, leaving people suddenly enlightened and amazed.

If Lin Ye had brought out red fruits from the beginning, the organizers could have completely refused to acknowledge them, leading to all those red ingredients not meeting the requirements and him failing.

But now, Lin Ye's tactic of using pink fruits directly forced the organizers to determine the standard for 'red' fruits. By now, the organizers could no longer use that final right of interpretation.

Unless they were shameless enough to deny it again.

But with so many players present, according to the organizers' previous performance, there was no possibility of going back on acknowledged matters and bets. Otherwise, the masked host could have completely gone back on the three hundred and fifty Eerie Coins that Lin Ye's initial tactic added, instead of choosing to increase them.

Therefore, this time, Lin Ye definitely cleared the stage.

The only pity was not being the first person and not taking first place in the third project.

This could be considered the only shortcoming.

But just by ruthlessly slapping the organizers in the face, playing tricks on them, and baiting them into increasing the first-place Eerie Coin prize to 800, it was also a huge success.

The old players had complicated feelings.

Zero finding the ingredients and clearing the third project did indeed align with their latest thoughts, but the wisdom shown by Zero's performance this time made them feel that competing on the same stage with Lin Ye, competing fairly, they had no possibility of getting first place.

"Don't panic."

"The gap this time will be very large."

"Even if Zero gets first in the next few rounds of projects, he might not necessarily get first in total points."

Just by submitting ingredients before the deadline,

Lin Ye's points for this round of the project would probably be the lowest.

And the point value for the third project would be higher.

There would be a gap between Lin Ye and them.

As long as they performed well in the next few rounds of projects, securing second and striving for first, there wouldn't be any problems.

……

The masked host's eyelids twitched incessantly.

Where did these red ingredients come from?

He knew very well that even if there were omissions, it was impossible for such a large quantity of ingredients to exist.

Therefore,

there was only one possibility.

That was that Lin Ye had moved the ingredients they had collected, snatching away all the red ingredients that their staff had rushed to collect and store.

Taking the ingredients they collected and handing them over to them—

this feeling... made the masked host almost lose his composure.

This guy had guessed from the very beginning that their organizers would specifically target him and rush to collect the corresponding ingredients, and he only needed to wait patiently for the final harvest, right!

At this moment,

the masked host wanted to take action and curse to vent the anger in his heart.

"Mr. Host, what's wrong? Could it be that these fruits and vegetables of mine don't meet the requirements?"

Lin Ye wore a faint smile on his face.

Trying to trap me?

If I don't trap you back, my name isn't Lin.

Now, Lin Ye really wanted to see that livid face under the host's mask; it must be very interesting, very fun!

"..."

The masked man was in a very bad mood now and didn't want to talk at all, especially not to Lin Ye.

"It seems Mr. Host is not in a very good mood now, so please have the other staff make the judgment. My time is very precious, and I'm waiting to rest and properly recover my strength and energy!"

"Passed."

The masked host spoke.

His low voice quickly turned into his usual lightness, "As expected of you, guest, you've succeeded once again. It's truly amazing; you can always complete the task in ways that surprise people."

"Luck, just luck."

Lin Ye said with a smile, "This is also thanks to someone helping; otherwise, where would I be able to collect so many fresh ingredients!"

The mockery hidden under the smile made the host explode with rage; he gritted his teeth and forcibly held it back.

"I don't know who was helping me, I really should thank them."

"..."

This person, how can he be so annoying, so infuriating!

The masked host's heart was burning with rage, but his face showed no change.

"Time is up."

The three-hour deadline had arrived.

Player groups that hadn't returned by now were judged as having failed the task.

"Congratulations, guest. Because of your intelligence, the first-place prize for the Gourmet Sports Meet has now reached eight hundred Eerie Coins."

Lin Ye was stunned upon hearing this.

How did it become eight hundred?

Where did the extra three hundred and fifty come from?

"Cough, cough, cough, Mr. Host, you are truly generous."

"Hehe, this isn't me being generous, but you being smart, sir."

In the masked host's view, the bet between himself and Nakiri Erina had probably also been calculated by Lin Ye. The bet was a reward of three hundred and fifty Eerie Coins—wasn't this a perfect hint that Lin Ye was the one behind it?

Otherwise, why wasn't the Eerie Coin requirement Nakiri Erina proposed three hundred, or five hundred, but exactly three hundred and fifty!

"You flatter me, you flatter me."

Lin Ye still didn't understand what had happened, what had caused the first-place Eerie Coin prize to increase to eight hundred.

But this matter was a good thing for him.

Who would complain about having too many Eerie Coins?
