Willis rolled to the top of Level Four with relative ease; as she rolled over the top of the wall, the crowd let out a cheer in appreciation.
Patel, however, did not have as easy a time of it. While sliding up the wall, she slid just a bit too much, nearly losing her grip and falling off. Only a herculean effort managed to save her as she practically threw herself over the wall. She landed hard on Level Four, clearly a bit winded and sore.
Tohuitlnoch did not seem at all sympathetic. If anything, the fact that the stubborn Kerlian and Maximusian had made it this far seemed only to bring him annoyance.
As the two now quite-sore competitors began their ascent to Level Six, the host snapped, "Climbing so long must be making you hungry. Let's give you some good Xiomeran cooking!" Tohuitlnoch donned a chef's hat, to the confusion of the climbers. An explanation would come soon enough, however.
As Patel and Willis climbed towards Level Five, Pyramid Defenders popped out of holes in the wall, also wearing chef's hats. They began pelting the competitors with random food items. Breads, pastries, various entrees and side dishes....soon an entire menu of a Xiomeran restaurant was hurling towards the climbers. Along with drinks, of course. The worst part would be the hot liquid dishes....soups, stews, coffee, hot tea and the like. None of it was hot enough to actually burn the climbers, but it certainly wasn't comfortable, as it alternated with cold items such as puddings and cold drinks. Various condiments arrived as well.
As the climbers were pelted with food, Tohuitlnoch turned to the camera. "Our dinner for our intrepid climbers is being catered tonight by Lohuā Licā Companies. Remember to live the Lohuā Licā lifestyle at your dinner table, just like our competitors!" the host laughed, with a smirk on his face.
As the two remaining contestants continued, the food drop soon began to have live items....a live chicken, dropped on the head of Willis; a live fish, dropped on the head of Patel and flopping wildly. "I guess our chefs forgot to cook everything!" the host said, with an evil grin.
As the competitors fought off the live dishes and looked up in horror, a pair of Pyramid Defenders dangled live lobsters over them with malevolent smiles.
