The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 26: The Mutated Fire Crocodile

Yifu deeply resented those who behaved like hypocrites and hid their true motives. In fact the author went out of the way to describe Yifu as a single-minded person who saw the world in black and white. She either loved completely or hated completely, it was similar to the innocence of a child. She became this way because of the actions of a childhood friend she had held dear. That friend spoke viciously about her behind her back resulting in her distrust.

After meeting her, Ai Lin felt that Yifus character was contradictory. Yifu didnt like people who were intentionally good to her, while at the same time she also didnt like people who didnt pay attention to her. Ai Lin felt that Yifu was a mental case. How could she unironically declare her desire for the truth when she was only willing to accept her version of events? This kind of person would never be worthy of the protagonists attention.

Xiao Cheng, you wont help me either? I thought we were friends! Yifus eyes turned red, filled with the pain of betrayal as she looked at Zi Cheng.

Wasnt Zi Cheng her friend? Back in the ocean she had saved Yifu without knowing anything about her. Zi Cheng held a big spot in Yifus heart because of this. She had expected Zi Cheng to back her up because she knew the other person was very kind. Who knew that her expectations would be completely shattered. Yifu was really unhappy!

Zi Cheng felt a headache coming on. She thought the girl was a cute little sister so she made sure to look out for her, but apparently she didn't know the girl well enough. Yifu, what do you want me to do? Help you quarrel with everyone? The most important thing right now is to find a way to pass the assessment, not fight with each other.

Zi Cheng was earnestly trying to persuade her. Yifu was the first friendly person she got to know when she arrived in the world, so she did think of Yifu as a friend.

Yifu had wanted to help the team not go down the wrong path, but no one believed her! Why was everyone so mean to her?! What was so good about Feng Wu that everyone believed her? With tears in her eyes Yifu yelled, Whatever! You just dont want to help me! With that she turned around and ran into the woods.

Yifu! Zi Cheng called out to Yifu but Yifu ignored her and kept running.

Is she crazy? Running around in a place like this? Shes gonna get killed! Xi felt really annoyed. So dramatic over such a small matter. She had to be some spoiled young miss from a rich family. Honestly, acting like the whole world was against her.

What should we do? Should we go after her? Hans asked Pei. Although it was true they were a group, they were only together until they could get out of the forest and reach the city. Which of them would have the time to chase after such an insensible young miss?

Ai Lin walked over to Zi Cheng and asked, Zi Cheng, do you want to go after her? Wont she run into trouble if we leave it like this?

Zi Cheng was uncertain. She couldnt let anything influence her performance but at the same time Yifu was her first friend in this world and her safety was important. In the end, was it more important to find Yifu or pass the examination? Zi Cheng was truly conflicted!

Ai Lin sneered. She wanted to see what was in this protagonist's heart. Which was more important to her: the assessment or Yifu? What she didnt understand was Feng Wu. There wasnt a Feng Wu in the novel. No wait there was. But wasnt it just a minor role?

Xi thought Feng Wu was a kind hearted girl when she noticed the other was staring in the direction Yifu ran off in. Dont worry, Im sure shell come running back.

Feng Wu turned to Xi and spoke with a serious expression on her face. Theres something coming this way. It was a message from the wind.

Kyle was next to them and overheard the exchange. He had a confused expression as he asked, What is it?

Feng Wu didnt have a chance to answer when an earth-shattering roar rang out.

Help! Xiao Cheng save me! Yifu really did come running back just like Xi said, only she didnt come back alone. Chasing after her was an unidentified magical beast.

The beasts body was completely engulfed in flames. Although it was wide, at least five meters long, it was not very tall.

Who knew what she did to make it so angry, but it was clearly chasing after her in rage.

Damn! Thats an eighth level mutated fire crocodile! Pei recognized the beast.

Originally the fire crocodile must have been a normal low level magical beast, but somewhere along the way it mutated, enabling it to break through its own limits and evolve beyond its set boundaries. Maximum evolution for a crocodile was the fifth level, that this one was able to break through to the eighth level was because of some kind of variation or mutation.

Zi Cheng was the highest ranked magician in their group. She was at fifth while Ai Lin, at fourth was the next closest. As for sword wielders, the highest they had was maybe fourth or fifth. For the group to try to fight an eighth level beast was just asking for death.

The huge crocodile screamed before shooting a stream of fire from its mouth. It set the surrounding woods on fire just from the heat alone. The flame was unbearably hot.

Yifu finally reached the group. Luckily Pei screamed a warning for the group to spread out and everyone was able to dodge in time.

Yifu attached herself to Zi Cheng and was screaming, Kill the beast! to everyone.

Abominable human! Return my child! Give me back my baby you thief![notes] The fire crocodile was roaring like an enraged madman, spraying fire everywhere. Some of the weaker animals in the forest scampered in fear for their lives. The crocodile was king of the forest so they were afraid of its temper.

Look! Whats happening over there?! Some of the other groups nearby noticed the blazing flames and the frightened screams. It made them uneasy.

It must be a wild magical beast! Quickly run! Some people were able to correctly guess the situation and immediately directed their groups to go around. At this point Pei and the others in his group were in a difficult position. Although they tried their best to avoid the attack, the crocodile was really powerful and swift; several people were already injured.
