Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism

Chapter 245 Mysterious Earpiece

The game went on.

Meanwhile, outside the riddle game gazebo...

Zelena was seated on a bench, using a fan to cool herself. She asked, "Have you finished?

"Which question are they tackling now?"

Gillian replied, "They've reached the fourth question."

Candy commented, "This mini Bluetooth earpiece transmits information rapidly, with no lag. We can hear the questions in real time and search for the answers quickly. Even though it's a bit slow, given enough time, Hattie will surely win."

Zelena asked, "How many contestants are still in there?"

Gillian responded, "Violeta and Kaylee are still in there. They won't hold out for long. The human brain can't compete with a computer."

Zelena lifted an eyebrow and smirked sarcastically.

Hattie wants the credits, while Violeta doesn't, but she still challenges Hattie, which only fuels Hattie's dislike for her.

This rivalry doesn't require Zelena to stir up trouble. Violeta, you certainly have a knack for making enemies.

...

Time passed slowly.

The riddle game inside the gazebo grew increasingly difficult.

The number of participants dwindled from six to four.

Kaylee successfully answered ten questions, then chose to withdraw and was rewarded with a stack of special treats.

"Sir, may I wait here for my friend?"

Kaylee wanted to stay and wait for Violeta.

The owner replied, "Of course, you can sit here and wait."
