Chapter 1880 "Saving A Life"
Chapter 1880 "Saving A Life"
Maybe because Ainsley used her ability on the boat and the boat was essentially protected by the barrier, which was why the rules of the lake that prevented any visible ability to be used didn't react at all, or maybe because the barrier was considered 'invisible'.
In short, everyone on the boat could still use their various visible abilities and could even use abilities that were considered 'not in line' with the lake's ecology.
That split second was extremely short.
The plant-tamer girl didn't even realize that a sword phantom stabbed towards her chest because she was busy stretching her hand to take the Thumbelina Flower of the Man-eating Water Lily.
Just right when the girl grabbed the palm-sized flower, Ainsley's small barrier protected the girl's heart and the next millisecond, that sword phantom pierced through to the barrier.
PUFF.
The plant-tamer girl only heard the sound of something muffled hitting a tough barrier or something and somehow, her chest felt tight.
When the girl lowered her head to see what was going on, she was 'lucky' enough to see the sword phantom that pierced through her heart but was stopped by an invisible barrier.
The barrier started to crack and slowly disappeared, but the sword phantom, which was only a one-time attack, also became blurry before disappearing under the sunlight.
The plant-tamer girl was not an idiot and she immediately realized what had just happened.
If not for the barrier that protected her heart, she would have died right away.
Even if she had elixirs and other live-saving items, that barrier saved her life in the last few seconds!
And the girl had a feeling that the barrier was created by the little kid next to her.
Ainsley didn't know the shock and the awe in the girl's heart and just worryingly checked the girl's state.
"Big sis! Are you okay?? Oh my God, that was close! Please be careful next time, okay? Mission's items are not as important as lives!"
Ainsley was really panicked for a few seconds and her heart almost stopped.
These people on the boat were all her temporary teammates, and she never wanted to see a teammate die in front of her eyes.
That life and death moment was so short and almost no one noticed the commotion other than Ainsley, but a person could have died silently like that.
The beasts and monsters in this lake were indeed much more intelligent and skilled than the ones outside!
The plant-tamer girl also felt that her heart stopped beating for a moment, but then, she quickly let out a relieved sigh before slumping on the seat with a pale face.
"I-I— thank you. T...thank you so much." The girl couldn't even speak clearly and could only whisper in a weak voice.
Her voice and body was trembling all over, but she didn't forget the Thumbelina Flower of the man-eating water lily that she just grabbed.
This flower was considered dead the moment it was separated from the water lily, so it would not impose any danger.
The girl realized that if not for Ainsley, she almost died for real and it was just for such a not-so-precious flower.
Even if the price of this flower could buy people's lives, compared to her worth as a plant tamer, it was indeed not worth it.
And at that moment, she didn't feel like she was going to be teleported, so the girl became more confused about whether the Academy could ensure their safety or not.
It was true that most people who were saved were those who were dying and didn't die on the spot within seconds because even the teleportation technology or whoever controlled the portal couldn't save people that fast.
There were hundreds of contestants here and it was impossible to accurately save every single person, not to mention that the contestants were not given any barrier item that could be used in an emergency.
Sometimes, barriers also could not stop a person's death and would only delay the time of death by a little bit.
This little bit of time was what the teleportation technology needed.
Just a few seconds were enough to save one's life, but in cases like the surprise attack before, even the academy could not save the contestants.
The audiences all saw the thrilling scene from the live stream channels of both Ainsley and the plant-tamer girl.
When they saw how fast Ainsley could save someone's life and how fast she activated her unknown ability or used any auxiliary items to help, the online audiences couldn't help but sigh in awe.
[If it was me, I could never. Her reaction speed is really too fast. It's as if she can predict the scene a few seconds before it happens.]
[Maybe the kid has some kind of prophecy ability, or maybe her sense of danger is much better than many people because she's used to being in such a situation.]
[Her reflex is so good. The little girl must have been trained well to be able to react so quickly like that.]
[Now I wonder how this girl died once. Her enemy back then must have been so powerful.]
[The plant-tamer girl is so lucky, ah! If not for the little kid, I bet she would have died right away. That's a pity for a good teacher candidate like her...]
[No wonder the instructors never let us approach some places in this lake. Even if we are Eltonians, we might be as vulnerable as ordinary babies in front of such dangers.]
[The special instructors are all so strong! These candidates are also very promising! So excited, ah!]
