Chapter 258: The 10 Ingredients (1/2)
Alex and 4 other young folks walked past the curtain onto the other side. 5 men stood there, who swiftly handed them an empty storage bag.
”You will be using this to gather the ingredients,” they told them.
Alex looked in front of him and all he saw was a black barrier blocking his view from what was in front of him. He looked to the side and saw the other 4 quite nervous about the various things.
The host was to the side and without wasting a single moment he told them to go. Alex activated Focus Mode.
Time slowed down as all of his senses amplified to another level. Alex walked in with all of the rest, waiting to see what was in there that made everyone so worried.
The moment he entered, 2 things became clearly visible for him. The first was the list that was hanging in the air, and the second was the ingredients laid out in front of him.
The list had exactly 10 groups inside of them, each group consisting of 10 ingredients. The groups were separated into points where the first group of ingredients won them 10 points, the second 9 points, all the way down to the last which earned them 1 point.
This was a little overwhelming to remember at just 5 seconds, but not as much as what the others were.
On a large surface in front of them were nearly 1000 different ingredients, all laid down randomly. The entire front of him lit up as thousands of names started popping up. The number was so much that even he was easily overwhelmed.
'I could use my spiritual sense to easily check through it all individually, but it seems I will have to wait until my next turn to do so,' he thought.
The 5 seconds were over.
All 5 of them walked back to the end of the queue. The other 4 were currently frowning as they didn't even know where to begin with finding the ingredients, while only Alex was the first person without a single negative emotion.
He was overwhelmed when he saw so many names for sure, but now that he had time, he could slowly digest it and see where everything was.
'I am sure I can actually afford to waste next turn too,' Alex thought. His first course of action was remembering all the 10 ingredients that would earn him 10 points.
He recollected all of his memory from the few seconds worth of massive information that was in his head. He first remembered the list of 10 ingredients.
