The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 437-438: Failure and Conclusion; Bloodlines Repulsed

437: Failure and Conclusion

Deadweight. Bowen didnt even bother looking at Camille.

None of the boys looked kindly upon her. Camille had nearly killed the team because of her rash behavior.

There were four girls on the team. Anma was a pharmacist, so her role was clear-cut. Sandy didnt have any special skills but she was sensible.

Amongst the girls, even though she was only a second year, Feng Wu was the most useful. She could understand animals and could distinguish between poisonous and nonpoisonous plants and because she was in the Sword division, had combat abilities. Plus, she was well-behaved and didnt cause trouble.

Camille, despite having no abilities, made trouble every day and constantly tried to isolate Feng Wu from the group. Moron was the best word to describe her.

It was like she was a professional dead weight.

Anma didnt like Camille either, but as a pharmacy student, she couldnt ignore a person in distress, so she walked over to inspect the deep scratch on Camilles body.

Anmas heart froze at the sight. Camilles scratch had turned black. This was not good.

Shes been poisoned! Anma cried out.

Poisoned?! The exclamation came from multiple people in the group.

It wasnt that they cared about Camille; it was just that the rules of the challenge meant if one person died, then the whole group lost. It was no joke.

Is there a way to detoxify the wound? Ober frowned.

I can give it a try, but I dont have much hope. The toxin is so strange and I dont have my tools with me, so I cant analyze the components of the poison. Anma didnt have high hopes for detoxification.

There were many of types detoxification compounds available in the outside world, but in the virtual world, they had to formulate their own. To complicate matters, their current location was full of mutated plants.

Anma couldnt tell if any of them had medicinal properties. And even if they did, there was still the question of how strong the properties were. Refining medicinal herbs into a compound wasnt just a matter of putting herbs to fire; knowing the medicinal properties of each herb and how potent said properties were was also very important.

Only by knowing these things could refinement be successful.

The place they were at was filled with mutated plants. Anma couldnt tell what their components were so there was no way for her to successfully refine a detoxification compound out of them for Camille.

Though Anma couldnt create a compound, she could still make a tincture. She walked around and collected several herbs then borrowed Feng Wus big iron pot to brew it.

The luminosity in Feng Wus eyes returned after she blinked a few times. The others in the group were ashen and glaring at Camille as though they wanted to kill her.

Camille smiled bitterly while avoiding everyones eyes. They looked like they wanted to tear her apart. But they couldnt really fault her for failing the challenge. She was an innocent party too! It wasnt like she wanted to be scratched by the monsters in the village.

Five minutes earlier. . . 

It looks like Ober and his team are facing a crisis. Camille is showing signs of being poisoned from the attack from the unknown creature. Fortunately fourth-year genius Anma is on their team! The poison shouldnt be a big problem for them. . . ? Tamanshas voice came out through the speakers.

Presently. . . 

The screen showed Anma boiling a tincture after the team rescued Camille.

Camille was frowning as though she was in pain.

You are incorrect. The challenge ended the moment one of their team members became injured. The vice president said.

Is there some kind of secret? I believe viewers would like to know what kind of difficulties the school has set up to test the contestants in this village.

Yes, the monsters in the village were originally villagers who lived there. The background story for this field is that of a kingdom destroyed by some unknown virus.

The virus, much like the plague, is extremely dangerous. Anyone infected will become a brainless walking dead controlled by the virus.

Lets call these people zombies. Their consciousness disappears and only the desire for human flesh and blood remains.

Zombies carry a high virus load. Anyone scratched by one will immediately become infected and will gradually become a zombie themselves. The antidote for the zombie virus does not exist in this world, so when Camille was scratched, the teams exit was a foregone conclusion.

The audience understood the insidious trap awaiting the contestants in the village once the vice principal explained it.

Those not participating were truly glad in their hearts, otherwise if they had participated, they would have been scratched by those monsters and died a disgusting death.

Sure enough, not long after the vice principal finished speaking, a clear scream sounded from the screen. Sandy, who had been taking care of Camille, had been bitten! Camille had turned into a zombie, and craving human flesh, had bitten Sandy! Sandy only had time to scream before the system declared her dead.

A voice sounded above Obers team. Two members of your team are dead. Youve lost the challenge.

Ober and the rest of the team were sent out of the arena immediately.

They lost! They actually lost!

No one in the team could believe it, but in the blink of an eye, their challenge was over. They had wanted to get the slots for Star Marshall hall, however losing the challenge meant their chances were gone. It was a huge blow to Ober and the others.

Camille exited the virtual world as fast she could, not daring to meet anyones gaze. The group could not reconcile with the results, but it wasnt like they could hunt her down at school. The best they could do was to engrave her name in their hearts.

Sandy was especially bitter and hated Camille the most. Being bitten to death, it was a feeling she would hold onto for a long time. She was never going to forgive Camille for giving her such a terrible and terrifying memory.

438: Bloodlines Repulsed

The others in the group left the virtual world in low spirits soon after as well. Fortunately, the individual challenge had not started yet, so they still had a chance.

Even though they failed the team challenge, they could still be picked for the special mission if they performed well in the individual challenge. Then from there, they could try be recruited to the hall and be a member.

It was just that faring poorly in the team portion meant their odds were that much lower. If everyone started with a 50% chance of being selected, then with the team loss, those odds dropped to 20%.

There team results were poor, and although the individual challenge ranked higher, it was still going to be difficult to get chosen for the special mission.

Unlike the rest of the group, Feng Wu wasnt feeling down about it. Wasnt a failure just a failure? She had no interest in entering Star Marshall hall and didnt care about the team challenge at all.

But now that she thought about it, what was her master doing? She hadnt seen him in a while. She went to look for her master.

At a hotel room in Zhongyang. . . 

A slightly overweight man and a beautiful woman sat opposite each other.

You failed. The womans eyes were cold.

There was a situation and I underestimated the danger level in the sea gods tomb. He replied with an expressionless face.

Why did you auction the key I gave you? She asked coldly.

It was safer to mix with the crowd than to stand out. Hart, who was the slightly overweight man, responded.

Your mission to was to obtain the heart of water, but you failed. His Royal Highness is deeply dissatisfied with you. I hope you dont make any more mistakes.

You spent a lot of effort to get me into the tomb, but instead of vying for the artifacts, you wanted me to get the heart of water. Since when did your kind need any of the elements to develop?

There is no need for you to worry about that. We have received word the humans have found where the heart of wood is located and that they will likely send someone to retrieve it soon. You must find a way to seize it and atone for your failures.

I understand. Hart nodded.

Partnering with the blood clan wasnt a once and done thing. From the day he decided to cooperate with them, Hart knew it would be impossible for him to ever sever ties.

Feng Yanran was in an exquisite villa in Xingguang Holy academys courtyard watering some tiny flowers. The already blooming flowers gave off a wonderful fragrance that was quite relaxing.

Yanran, why dont you participate in the extreme survival challenge? You cant just stay home all day! Feng Tianxing carried a plate of refreshments to the round table in the garden to sit down.

Mom, my classmates have changed since Milty and Oleens death. It wasnt as though I made Oleen like me. Its clear I did nothing wrong! Why are they treating me so badly?!

Feng Yanran felt the gossip at school was unfair. She didnt dare go back to her dorm and had taken to staying at her moms house when not in class. She really hadnt done anything. Was it her fault Oleen liked her?

It wasnt as though she could stop someone from liking her, so why were people trying to blame her for their deaths? Clearly it was all Miltys doing. The problem was between Oleen and Milty.

Oleen and Miltys families had even appeared at school and asked for her to be expelled. The school didnt agree with the request but the matter still boiled over. Most of the boys stopped chasing after her, while those students she had a good relationship with began avoiding her.

It was a change Yanran, who had been popular since entering school, found hard to accept.

Silly girl, you dont have to pay attention to them. What do they know? Mom knows it wasnt Yanrans fault and Mom has already explained everything to the school. There is no evidence you had a relationship with Oleen. So rest easy. No matter what those other students think, as long as you dont violate any school rules, you will be fine.

Feng Tianxing coaxed her daughter as she pulled her to her side.

Im not worried about being punished, I just dont want them to look at me like that. Yanran gave a long drawn out sigh.

Darling child, youve been wronged. Rest assured, soon they will regret treating you this way.

I. . . Yanran was about to say something when a weak spell suddenly hit her. Her entire body ached and the blood on her face drained away. The pain was so powerful she felt like she was in hell.

Yanran! Feng Tianxing hurriedly pulled her daughter to her and walked her back to her room. She gave Yanran a cup filled with bright red liquid.

Yanrans color returned after drinking it.

Mom, it hurts so much! When will my body get better? I dont want this anymore! Yanran cried out sadly.

She had been tortured since she was a child because she was of mixed blood. The human and nonhuman blood were similar, but werent of the same race. Combining them together resulted in a cursed blood.

The clash between the two bloodlines made her miserable because it created a phenomenon called mutual blood rejection, which made her weak and suffer unbearably. She would have surrendered to the pain and died long ago if it werent for the fact that she didnt want to worry her parents.

Feng Tianxing moved the cup away once Yanran finished drinking. The cup had been filled with the blood of virgins.

Since shed been little, Yanran had drunk virgin blood in order ease the pain caused by the conflict between her two bloodlines.

The pain grew more intense as she got older. To deal with it, she had to drink more concentrated blood.

Tianxing kept several virgins below the grounds of her home specifically to provide Yanran with blood. They were all rural women with ordinary backgrounds that no one would miss, so even if they went missing, they wouldnt attract attention.
