A Second Life, A New Power novel Chapter 29

An hour later, Demi and Maria finished their mission.

Both of them were invited to escape the heat by sitting underneath a tree. The production team even prepared fruits and drinks for them.

This made the other six guests very envious.

In particular, the four guests who ate burnt food for lunch were starving.

Moreover, they realized that digging potatoes didn't rely purely on strength, but on skills instead. Otherwise, the potatoes would easily become spoiled.

Comments appeared in the comment section.

"Haha! I didn't expect the two girls to win in the end!"

"We underestimated Demi!"

"Demi is very capable! Mr. Yale and Thomas took a break in between, while George and Chad took turns digging potatoes. Not only did Demi and Maria work on one role continuously, but they also didn't rest at all!"

…

In the end, Demi's team won first place.

She surpassed everyone in speed and other capabilities. Chad and George's group, which came in second place, was many points away from her.

The third place belonged to Nigel and Wendy, while the last place was Thomas and Ana.

Demi didn't spoil a lot of potatoes, but the others destroyed at least half a bag of them.

Thankfully, those potatoes could be used to feed the villagers' pigs, so they didn't waste food.

"We'll be rewarding everyone with cooking ingredients. The winning team will be given eight materials!" Matt looked at everyone cheerfully.

"Wow!" All of them gasped.

"The second team wins four ingredients!"

"What? Why is the difference in materials so big?" Everybody asked in confusion.

"Should there be such a big difference in the first place?" Matt looked at everyone, an unreadable expression on his face.

After hearing that, everyone fell silent before nodding in unison.

The comments were filled with laughter.

"Third place gets three ingredients, and the last team gets two ingredients. These are for your dinner today and breakfast tomorrow. May the winning team choose your ingredients now."

"We ate too much for lunch. Let's eat more vegetables for dinner," Maria whispered happily to Demi.

"Okay." Demi nodded.

Someone commented, "Haha! They ate too much! How would the others react after hearing that?"

Another person commented, "I heard the sound of stomachs growling from the coal-eating team in the afternoon."

"How dramatic! What coal-eating team? That's hilarious!"

In the end, Demi and Maria selected three meat ingredients and five vegetable dishes.
