Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Pei Shuangshuang found this jungle truly bizarre. She noticed that besides towering trees, the most prevalent thing in the jungle was vines. Normally, it’s normal to have vines in a forest, but when vines outnumber the trees, it becomes somewhat unusual.

Pei Shuangshuang knew that the planet starting with ’F’ had many vines capable of attacking people, and some were quite powerful. She felt that the ubiquitous vines in this jungle seemed a bit off.

These vines intertwined and grew together, some comparable to giant trees on their own, while others wrapped around the towering trees tightly, even spreading over everyone’s feet.

The vines were growing too luxuriantly, so much that Pei Shuangshuang couldn’t help but feel a bit worried. If these vines were aggressive, they would be stepping into a trap of intertwined vines.

However, given that the school let them pass through this jungle, it couldn’t possibly be a dead-end. Thus, not all of the vines here could attack; most likely, only a portion of them were aggressive.

With this thought in mind, Pei Shuangshuang became more cautious while walking and reminded those around her, ”Be careful of these vines while walking; there’s something wrong with them here.”

Actually, Pei Shuangshuang didn’t need to remind them; everyone felt the vines were unnervingly abundant and were on high alert.

After walking a bit further, the jungle was too quiet. This eerie quietness made everyone uneasy, and when the leader, Chi Ruiqiu, stopped, they all paused simultaneously.

At the back, Pei Shuangshuang looked at Chi Ruiqiu with puzzlement. Chi Ruiqiu’s face was grim as he stared at the ground, and Pei Shuangshuang followed his gaze, her eyes narrowing.

Before Chi Ruiqiu, the previously normal-colored vines had transformed into a patch of blood-red vines.

These blood-red vines were much thinner compared to those like giant trees, spreading across the ground like a web, appearing sleek and glossy despite their thinness.

Clearly belonging to the plant type, yet their outer skin resembled animal skin, carrying an ominous feel.

Pei Shuangshuang walked closer with a grim expression, squatted down, and took out the species handbook from the Space Button, opening it to compare a holographic image of blood-red vines with the ones on the ground.

The appearance was identical, smooth and leafless. Most importantly, the tips of these vines were as hard as needles, emitting a metallic sheen. Pei Shuangshuang’s heart sank. ”It’s the Bloodthirsty Vine.”

With these words, those around turned pale, their expressions grim.

”No wonder there are no animals here. Bloodthirsty Vines are extremely domineering, the most murderous among vine-type mutant plants. Where Bloodthirsty Vines appear, not only animals and birds, but even insects are absent.”

Liang Xuan’s eyebrows furrowed deeply, his expression tight with fear. Beside him, Chu Xinqiong unconsciously grasped Liang Xuan’s sleeve, her face pallid.

Dong Yi and Shao Pengfeng on the other side were similarly pale-faced. It’s not surprising the reactions were so intense; the reputation of Bloodthirsty Vines was overpowering, like the Killing Mouse, making people shudder with fear even more than the Killing Mouse.

Killing Mice win with numbers, while just one Bloodthirsty Vine can wield the destructive power of a swarm of Killing Mice. The sprawling vines resemble a giant net, attacking any creature within its territory.

What makes Bloodthirsty Vines even more terrifying than Killing Mice is that the attack of Killing Mice is visible, whereas Bloodthirsty Vines excel in stealth killings, leaving you ensnared before you even realize it, making it impossible to defend.

No matter how fearsome an enemy is, they can be seen and dealt with. This kind of stealth assassination, with enemies you can’t grasp, is the most terrifying because you never know when they will strike.

Cheng Yunxi unconsciously tightened her grip on her handgun, her complexion also pale as she looked at Pei Shuangshuang, whose face was solemn. ”Sister Shuangshuang, what should we do?”

Before Pei Shuangshuang spoke, Du Qiyue gently soothed Cheng Yunxi, ”Yun Xi, there’s no need to be so afraid. Such dangerous creatures as Bloodthirsty Vines wouldn’t be completely introduced by the school.

Even if they are Bloodthirsty Vines, they should be quite weak, meant for practice. As long as we’re careful, it shouldn’t pose too great a danger.”

Du Qiyue’s reassurance made Cheng Yunxi, Liang Xuan, Chu Xinqiong, Dong Yi, and Shao Pengfeng relax a bit, thinking of the previous Crocodile Beast and feeling Du Qiyue might be right.

”No, these are complete Bloodthirsty Vines!” As Cheng Yunxi and the others relaxed, Pei Shuangshuang and Chi Ruiqiu nearly spoke simultaneously.

Everyone was stunned, watching as Pei Shuangshuang and Chi Ruiqiu were in such agreement. Du Qiyue’s face suddenly turned sour; she took a deep breath but still looked gently at Pei Shuangshuang, though her voice carried sharpness.

”Shuangshuang, I don’t know why you’re saying this, but this is a practical training ground given by the school. Didn’t you say before that the school wouldn’t put students in danger?

If these Bloodthirsty Vines are indeed complete, wouldn’t that place students’ lives at risk?

Perhaps you dislike me, and that’s why you’re saying the opposite to me, but I hope you don’t let personal grievances...”

Du Qiyue continued to reprimand Pei Shuangshuang, but Pei Shuangshuang ignored her, instead using binoculars to observe the distant area.

Then she lowered the binoculars and spoke to Chi Ruiqiu, who had also just set down his binoculars, ”You saw it too.”

Chi Ruiqiu nodded solemnly, ”Seems like this is the real elimination zone for us students.”

Du Qiyue couldn’t continue. She talked for a long time, and yet it was as if she didn’t exist and wasn’t acknowledged by them, causing an awkward and embarrassing situation.

What’s more infuriating than regarding someone as an opponent, yet they don’t even acknowledge your presence? Du Qiyue’s face couldn’t be described as merely unpleasant; it was disgustingly twisted!

Pei Shuangshuang and Chi Ruiqiu didn’t bother with what Du Qiyue was thinking; instead, they were explaining things to the others.

”Take out your binoculars and look carefully at the distant jungle. See what’s out there.”

The others curiously picked up their binoculars and looked into the distance, discovering that deep in the jungle were many silver eggs the height of a person. These eggs sporadically distributed in the jungle seemed out of place with the terrifying forest.

Cheng Yunxi lowered her binoculars, staring at Pei Shuangshuang in disbelief. ”Sister Shuangshuang, could those silver eggs be students like us?”

Pei Shuangshuang nodded, affirming her guess. ”They are students like us, only they have been eliminated.”
