[February 17, 2020] ... To Drew all three were formidable. The red-head was like an inferno; Drew could feel heat elemental fluctuating in the air just by standing next to him. The silver-haired boy was as cold as ice; his eyes were like icicles. The golden-haired boy, how should he say it? The golden-haired boy was smiling benignly. He was honestly the most beautiful person Drew ever met. None of the girls he knew could compare to that face.
The weird thing was the boy in front of him looked soft and gentle like the moonlight. Drew was confused and rather conflicted. Nevertheless his gut was telling him the boy in front of him was definitely strong and not to be messed with.
Drew"s intuition was spot on. If Elena could read his mind, she would have patted him on the shoulders. The boy had good eyes. Even Ming Xi"s friends took a while to realize he wasn"t as he seemed. That Drew figured it out on their first meeting was impressive.
"h.e.l.lo, I"m Ming Xi, Feng Wu"s senior at school. Won"t you have a seat?" Ming Xi smiled at Drew. He thought Drew looked like an honest, straightforward person so he didn"t mind having him sit with them.
Drew obediently sat down. He had wanted to sit next to Feng Wu, but both spots were already taken. On her left was Jier and on her right was Ming Xi. There was no way he"d be able to sit next to her.
"You were teleported to a savannah? That"s better than me. I was teleported to a swamp. I nearly didn"t make it out." Jier nearly chucked his meal when he thought about the swamp. It was so disgusting he got out of there as fast as he could.
"Ming Xi, Tian Ya where did you guys get teleported to?" Elena sat between Zi Cheng and Ai Lin.
"I was teleported to a volcanic crater." Ming Xi smiled bitterly. He wasn"t sure if his luck was really good or really bad to have been transported to such a place.
"I teleported to an ice field." Tian Ya said breezily.
"Ice field? That"s like a fish to water. Your luck is so good. No one could have beat you there." Let an ice affinity person go to an ice world? So unfair. Elena felt like both he and Ming Xi cheated.
Elena didn"t know Feng Wu being teleported to a savannah was also a gigantic cheat. Otherwise if she did she would have surely screamed.
Tian Ya raised his eyebrows but declined to comment.
"Sister Elena, were you and Feng Wu sent to the savannah together?" Ai Lin asked.
"Yes, but not the same spot."
"Sister Elena, have you seen Yifu or Jasmine?" Zi Cheng was worried about her two friends, especially about Yifu. It wasn"t easy to raise someone to a 100% favorability rating. She didn"t want anything to happen to Yifu.
Elena"s face turned cold when she heard Yifu"s name. She had planned on telling everyone about it later after they left the tomb, but it seemed like there was no helping it now.
"Yifu was. .h.i.t by the Blackwater python at the last floor. She"s frozen so I put her in my dimensional ring. We"ll wait until we can find a way to save her." Elena had only been a little displeased with Yifu before, but now, after everything that happened, that little bit of displeasure had grown to enormous proportions. Why would anyone like someone who attacked their own fellow cla.s.smates?
Elena saw how much Zi Cheng cared for Yifu so she wanted to tell her about what happened, however it wasn"t the right place. There were too many people around who didn"t need to know.
Elena didn"t know it but her own appearance set off alarm bells in Ai Lin"s heart. According to the original plot, Elena should not have made it to the second floor. She should have been turned into an ice statue after taking the hit to save Yifu on the first floor. Her body should have remained in the tomb forever.
But now Elena was standing and talking just fine. Yifu, the person that should have survived was the one frozen.
Originally Elena, Zi Cheng, and Yifu entered the tomb together. When explaining to Ming Xi and his team, Zi Cheng had said the three of them fell into the tomb and Elena died protecting Yifu from the Blackwater python.
Ming Xi and his team didn"t say anything about the incident, but they never spoke to Zi Cheng"s team again after they returned to school. Ming Xi and his team were the few not attracted to Zi Cheng"s protagonist halo.
Ming Xi definitely had suspicions about Elena"s death, but he had no evidence. Zi Cheng proved Elena died protecting Yifu, so he didn"t have a logical reason to pursue Zi Cheng.
This new ending was flipped. Ai Lin wasn"t sure if it was changing because of the interaction between so many new players, who were not in the play originally, or if it was because Feng Wu and Elena were teleported to the same place.
Ai Lin had suspected Feng Wu was a fellow transmigrator, but now she was positive it wasn"t the case. Feng Wu was definitely not a transmigrator. After all how could such a simple girl be a transmigrator?
Ai Lin"s thinking was flawed though. She was only thinking about Earth; she failed to consider the possibility of Feng Wu originating from a world other than Earth.
"Sister Elena, please take Yifu out. I would like to take a look." Upon hearing how serious Yifu was injured, Zi Cheng immediately wanted to check. You could say a thousand uncomplimentary things about Yifu and her bad character, but you couldn"t deny her devotion to Zi Cheng.
Elena sighed and waved her hand. A frozen human form appeared on the ground.
The people glanced over at Elena"s movement, but they quickly turned away. It was hopeless for anyone turned into ice by the black water. No woman had ever survived.
