Chapter 1610: Deceitful Map
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
As indicated on the map, the Lava Mountain Range was indeed outside Wengka City, but the two greenhorns with no sense of direction were still unable to find it even after roaming about the mountains for a full two days and nights.
The duo looked at each other in dismay.
“Could it be that the cheap map you bought had drawn it wrong…” Qiao Mu looked at Qi Xuanxuan in exasperation.
“How is it cheap. In any case, I had spent one spirit currency on it.” Qi Xuanxuan grumbled before flipping it around to study it. “Wait, could it be that this place marked as a red river is the Lava Mountain Range??”
Qiao Mu huddled over to take a look. She saw that there was indeed a red river across from where there was a big mountain marked on the map.
There was also a small red dot behind where the river was.
Correct, it was that small red dot—a small red dot that simply wouldn’t even rouse your attention on a map!
This might be the genuine Lava Mountain Range.
So that meant that the duo had gone in the totally opposite direction and wasted two days on a nameless mountain…
“Heavens! How can there be such a deceitful map! What the hell is this map!” Qi Xuanxuan was so livid she nearly tore the map apart.
Qiao Mu hastily stopped her and concluded with a light cough, “Uh, it’s our fault that we didn’t look at it carefully. It’s fine since the entrance exam on July 28th will only be the day after tomorrow. We, cough, will pretty much get there just in time.”
“My Heavens, these people selling maps in Shuntian Prefecture couldn’t be idiots right! They marked the real Lava Mountain Range so small yet drew a lousy mountain in black!”
“If I encounter that profiteer selling this map next time, I’ll whip him to death!!” Qi Xuanxuan gnashed as she once again recalled what that map-selling profiteer looked like.
That fellow had donned a black cloak with a hood. Yet from the looks of it now, his furtive behavior had indicated that he was up to no good.
F*ck, she had actually fallen for this kind of person’s trick!
Too bad for that spirit currency!
Qiao Mu: …
“Oi, the two young older sisters up ahead! Please wait up.” A panting voice came from behind the duo.
“Young, Young Older Sisters, let, let me ask you for directions!” The little fatty who had run over was as round as a ball, and his small eyes curved into crescents.
“Who are you.” Qi Xuanxuan went into an offensive stance as she put her guard up against the little fatty.
Don’t be kidding, they hadn’t seen any living people after roaming about this mountain for two days. On the contrary, they had seen two to three zombies and finished them off in passing.
“Don’t, don’t, don’t! Don’t hit me!” The little fatty hastily raised his arms in front of him to block. He then quickly shook his head and introduced himself, “I, I, I am a good person. My name is Kou, Kou, Kou. Kou Hongwen.”
“Kou Hongwen?” Qi Xuanxuan put down her arms and inquired suspiciously, “What did you come here for.”
“I, I. I got a bit lost. I, I wanted to ask you two ladies for directions, to, to Apex Academy!”
“You are also going to Apex Academy?” Qi Xuanxuan and Qiao Mu asked in unison.
The little fatty was immediately invigorated. He blinked his small eyes at them and exclaimed with a smile, “Aiyo, are you two ladies also heading to Apex Academy?”
After saying this, he pulled out a wrinkled and yellowing piece of paper from his pocket and spread it out in front of the duo. “Look, this map clearly used a black and thick line to mark out this mountain range. But no matter how I search, I can’t find Apex Academy. Isn’t it a bit weird.”
The two girls rolled their eyes in unison.
