Chapter 111
Jake was shocked.
Before Olivia stepped in, he reached out to stop her from walking.
But then, Olivia had already stepped onto the quicksand.
He was not sure if he should help her or not.
When Leo saw what happened to Olivia, he shouted at Maggie.
"Where is the rope? Take it out so we could save her!"
Maggie was startled upon hearing Leo. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
She immediately stood up and began thinking about what she should do.
However, she quickly panicked.
The rope was certainly on the bottom of the bag, but she got frustrated.
She had no idea where to get it.
"What should I do? I don't know where it is.I can't find it!"
Fortunately, the quicksand had slowed down.
Even so, the quicksand was slowly pulling half of Olivia's body down.
Her waist was almost submerging into the mud.
All of the girls were confident that they had nothing to worry about Olivia, so they rudely laughed and said, "Hey, don't take this situation too seriously.It's not a big deal! "
"Everything's working just fine.We should simply think of a solution to this problem because we're only wasting our time.Gosh, what are these people doing here? The clock is ticking! We should hurry up!"
As soon as the girls had finished speaking, Olivia extended her arms and began digging under the quicksand.
A few seconds later, she forcefully pulled something out from below and casually threw it aside.
Moments after that, the quicksand had suddenly collapsed.
Not only did Olivia stop sinking, but the quicksand had also flowed downwards, pulling herself out of the danger.
Everything happened so fast.
Olivia had thought of a way out of the quicksand, so the problem was instantly solved.
In the blink of an eye, Olivia stood there, her surroundings clean, as if the quicksand from before was just their illusion...
"Is this ...is this real?"
The boys looked at each other in disbelief.
Even Leo was surprised.
Earlier, the quicksand was stopping them from moving forward.
If they wanted to pass through, they must have considered another way and possibly risked their lives.
Leo had originally thought of the idea of throwing his backpack into the quicksand and stepping on it so he could rapidly go through.
After that, he would find something to pull his backpack again.
With that plan, he won't lose his belongings, but he figured out that it would take a bit longer for him.
He never thought that Olivia would be able to solve this problem directly from the core of the problem! Simple and rough, but it was the most effective way he had ever seen! Turns out, Maggie only pretended that she had found the rope when Olivia's waist was already submerged in the quicksand.
By the time Maggie was about to say anything about saving Olivia, she unexpectedly saw that she got out of the quicksand.
She instantly got mad.
‘‘Why did she get out so fast?’’
‘’How come she was able to solve the problem that fast?’’ Questions started to flood her mind.
She even suspected that Olivia was cheating.
She didn't think that Olivia would be able to find a solution for a short amount of time.
Olivia removed the sand on her body and began walking forward.
Jake immediately gave her a thumbs up and shouted at her back, "Great job!"
When he finished speaking, he proudly tagged along with Olivia.
The quicksand was a challenge that seemed too great for them to handle.
Along the way, everyone was panting.
Olivia was the only one whose face was not red and whose body was more relaxed.
She walked moderately and she was far ahead of the group.
The others were already exhausted.
They didn't have enough energy to continue walking, so they said that they wanted to rest in the area for a while.
Although Jake was also a little tired, he didn't want to be left behind so he mocked, "Guys, who said that he was afraid to continue doing the challenge earlier? I'm just wondering if that person was already embarrassed for underestimating Olivia!"
No one said anything.
During that moment, Olivia encountered another problem just over a hundred meters away from the group.
Obviously, the trail was getting more difficult as they were fast approaching their destination.
The problem they had to face next was right in front of Olivia.
It was a fence with an iron net and thorns, which blocked their way up to the mountain.
According to the rules of the challenge, they weren't allowed to walk anywhere except the trail they were supposed to follow.
Taking detours was prohibited.
