The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 433-434: Can't Leave th eWoods; Camille's Hostility

433: Cant Leave the Woods

Food became a big problem for Feng Wus party, but fortunately they still had enough rations for three days. They began searching for a way of the woods.

At first, they didnt think it would be difficult, but after walking in circles for five hours, they changed their minds.

Feng Wu quietly listened to the wind.

Look, those guys are back again. The lord is indeed the most powerful. These guys dont even know they entered the maze set up by the lord. The mangrove tree with red fruits talked loud and proud.

Its impossible for these foolish humans to escape these woods, said another big tree with purple fruits.

The lord is powerful and domineering!

The lord is the best!

Let these foolish humans wander the forest for the rest of their lives!

Many flowers, plants, and trees gloated nonstop about their lord. This was the first time any of them had seen any humans since their lord moved them to their new home here. They were all happy about and interested in the new arrivals.

Boss-level creatures and plants, excepting mob plants that refreshed at intervals, were self-aware. They existed with their own set laws inside the virtual world.

The excited words from the plants soundlessly entered Feng Wus ears. She stared curiously at them.

While inside the sea gods tomb, she had seen many plants, but none of them had any self-awareness; it made her happy to see so many plants with a sense of consciousness. She felt they were very cute and a sense of familiarity flooded her.

Were back here again!

Damn it! Whats going on?!

I think were trapped in a formation and if we dont get out soon, were all going to die here.

The others in the group felt the same way. There were poisonous plants everywhere, and now they were stuck in a formation. If they didnt find a way out and resolve their food problem soon, it was going to become a crisis situation.

It was frustrating being trapped in the woods for so long. They eventually found a spot to sit down so they could snack on their dried goods. They didnt eat much because they were trying to conserve their supply and make it last more than just three days.

Feng Wus party wasnt the only one caught in a crisis. Many of the other teams had also fallen into the same trap prepared by the school. They would be eliminated if they didnt pay attention and stay on alert.

In fact, some unlucky ones had already been eliminated in the short period of time since the challenge started.

According to the rules of the team competition everyone in the team had to make it to the end. If even one person were to be eliminated, the entire team failed.

Feng Wus team set out again after finishing their small snack. It was already noon and they had to find a way out before night fell. The woods at night would be far more dangerous than the woods during the day. They wanted to find a place to safely rest before nightfall, but an hour later and they were still no better off. Feng Wu asked the plants for directions but it was useless.

The plants were tasked with trapping the humans inside the forest, so even though Feng Wu gave them a familiar feeling, they would not go against their lords order.

Their lord was the master of the virtual world. If it had not gone against his direct orders, the plants would have gladly helped Feng Wu, but the two requests were in direct conflict, so although they wanted to help Feng Wu, they could not.

Feng Wu was a little frustrated at not being able to find a way out, but she wasnt angry with the plants for their refusal to help. She still thought they were adorable.

The sky got dark quickly so the group started a fire before turning in for the night.

Feng Wu took out her tent and swiftly set it up. Everything in the tent, from the pillows to the quilt, would be warm and cozy to sleep in.

There was a chill in the night air, something the group of magic and qi practitioners were unaccustomed to. No matter how cold or windy, they had always used magic or qi to create a barrier and shield themselves from the worst of it. But now, as ordinary people, all they could do was pull their collars a little higher and edge closer to the fire.

The other nine in the group looked in admiration at Feng Wu as she set up her tent. Earlier, when they were choosing their start up items, they felt a tent was useless. They only realized now how useful it was for maintaining stable body temperature.

Camille, a student from the magic division, sidled over to Feng Wu and spoke coquettishly. Feng Wu, its so cold. Why dont us girls squeeze in together? Camille had exhibited talent for magic at a young age, so she had grown up pampered by her family.

It sounded like she was making a request of Feng Wu, but really it was a foregone conclusion in her mind. Feng Wu wouldnt dare refuse. How could Feng Wu take a whole tent to herself when there were three other girls in the group?!

It never crossed her mind all their items were individual chosen nor that there was anything wrong with her using other peoples things.

Camille, forget it. Dont make it difficult for Feng Wu. The tent can sleep three people at most. There are four girls; how are we going to all fit in there? Sandy was a little envious, but she was practical and knew the tent wouldnt fit all the girls.

Camille was indifferent to the logic. What does that matter? Feng Wu is in the Sword division so she must be in good physical shape. Neither of my two senior sisters are, so our health is more delicate. Were a team, so Feng Wu shouldnt mind giving us use of her tent right?

434: Camilles Hostility.

She was sure Feng Wu wouldnt refuse and risk offending three people at once. There were four girls in the team; how was she going to get by if she offended three of them?

Feng Wu looked at Camille and blinked. Then she looked at Sandy and Anma. Sandys face was a little red from embarrassment. Anma knitted her brows at Camille, but she didnt say anything.

Does your health have something to do with me? Feng Wu didnt understand why Camille said it. If the three of them had health problems, shouldnt they go see a doctor? What was the use in talking to her?

You. . .  how can you be so unreasonable?! Were a team! But youre being so selfish! Camille shouted red faced at Feng Wu.

Unexpectedly, Feng Wu ignored her and went inside her tent without a backward glance.

Come out right now, do you hear?! Camille was losing it. She was a genius that everyone loved everywhere she went. This girl dared ignore her like this? It was just as Yifu said, this girl had no upbringing! Of all the people Camille knew, Yifu was the only one who had a grudge against Feng Wu.

She and Yifushared the same classes as students in the Magic division. Overall their relationship was good. In fact, she was Zi Chengs number two fan she was a huge Zi Cheng supporter and had a 95% favorability rating. She would reach 100% soon.

In order to improve her goodwill in class, Zi Cheng had worked hard and helped her classmates as often as possible. She willing lent an ear to anyone who wanted to talk and was always the picture of patience. If her classmates had any problems, they were always welcome to find her for help.

Though a lot of people in the school criticized her for pulling out the Demon Suppression sword and releasing a demon general, her reputation and influence in her class was unaffected.

Camille had heard a lot of bad things about Feng Wu from Yifu. She never expected to have the bad luck of being on a random team with Feng Wu.

Yifu had said Feng Wu refused to ever give Zi Cheng any face, had a vicious mind, and used her innocent appearance to deceive people every chance she got.

Camille didnt express an opinion about it but she did believe most of what Yifu said, after all there wouldnt be such animosity without a reason.

Because of this, she was unhappy with Feng Wu and had tried to find trouble with her. It was just that she never expected Feng Wu to dare offend three girls at once. She didnt know what to do given the situation.

She kept yelling from outside Feng Wus tent and her voice carried through the silent forest.

Enough! Junior Sister Camille, if you want to yell, then do so somewhere else. Dont cause all of us trouble. Anma was displeased.

Ober was frowning as he looked at Camille. This girl was going to cause trouble. He was anxious because her self-righteous attitude could potentially hold the team back and bring them trouble later.

Camille had no idea she was on Obers watch list, and after being yelled at by Anma, she didnt dare misbehave and go on with her screaming.

Feng Wu slept soundly in the tent without giving the outside noise a thought.

Eventually the night passed and a new day dawned with birds chirping as the first rays of sunlight shone through the tree leaves. The group outside were awakened by the light hitting them in the face.

None of them had slept restfully. The night had still been cold even with the fire nearby. The boys were OK, but the girls, unable to stand the cold, had huddled together to stay warm.

Camille had suggested they go to Feng Wus tent and sleep in there, but no one agreed. Sandy was too embarrassed to do something as brazen as to take a juniors tent and Anma was a fourth-year genius so such a thing was distasteful to her.

The idea didnt go anywhere and quickly turned into a one-man tent robbery monologue by Camille.

In the morning, after settling her tent away, Feng Wu energetically followed everyone on their journey.

Feng Wu was the only one in good spirits. Everyone else had slept poorly because they were cold and felt vulnerable sleeping in the open in the woods. It was hard for them to sleep peacefully.

As they walked, Feng Wu would climb a fruit tree here and there to pluck some fruits. She would also pluck wild herbs and vegetables from the ground to store in her dimensional storage bag.

It wasnt that Feng Wu knew the plants were edible; she figured it out based on the plant conversations around her. From that she could tell which ones were safe to eat and which ones werent.

It was a curious sight and eventually Anma asked, Junior Sister Feng Wu, arent you afraid these fruits are poisonous? You fearless dare to pick them so randomly.

Anma was a fourth-year genius in the Pharmacy division. She was confident, that amongst the group, she was the most knowledgeable about the plants around them.

Watching Feng Wu pick wild plants at random, her thoughts werent that Feng Wu knew what she was doing, but rather that Feng Wu would accidentally get poisoned.

She was worried. It was team challenge where one persons death meant elimination for everyone. So if Feng Wu died, then everyone on the team would accompany her and be booted out of the challenge as well.

Ober and the others had the same thoughts too. They were worried Feng Wu would poison herself to death and ruin it for all of them.

Junior Sister Feng Wu, if you are not sure if somethings edible, please dont go randomly picking them. If theyre poisonous, all of us will be affected.

Yeah, please think about the rest of us. Camille didnt like Feng Wu, so when she saw someone chiding Feng Wu, she happily joined in, not wanting to be left out.

Dont eat indiscriminately. This is a team challenge. One person dying means the entire team will die. I hope you can remember this. Ober said sternly.

Feng Wus eyes widened and she looked at them seriously. I didnt pick randomly. These are all obviously edible.

Camille sneered. You say its edible, but Senior Sister Anma is a fourth-year genius and even she doesnt know if these plants are edible. Dont tell me youre even more amazing than Senior Sister Anma?!

Feng Wu had refused to give her any face so she wasnt going to give Feng Wu an easy time. It was best to make Feng Wu the most hated person in the group.
