Chapter 1061

Phase One Implementation

Author’s Note: The reason for the recent lack of updates is that I’ve been editing the initial chapters. (Still on it)

————————————

The temperature had turned weird at this point.

As the grounds split apart, carrying multiple people in opposite directions.

No one here was stupid so they knew at this point that this was related to the selection.

Fwwhiiiiii! Fwwhiii! Fwwhiii!

“Hmm? Are those… ribbons?”

Everyone looked up to the sky as they spotted different colors of ribbons appearing within it.

These ribbons fell from the sky towards the participants drifting in different directions due to the splitting icy ground.

As the ribbons fell, they caught it and those standing together on a particular part of the split ground caught the same color of ribbons while the ones on separate icy grounds caught different colors.

“ATTENTION!”

A loud masculine voice reverberated across the Ice and fiery region.

“THE COLORS PICKED DETERMINE YOUR CURRENT GROUP AS WELL AS YOUR OBJECTIVE. BASED ON YOUR COLOR YOU ALL WILL HAVE TO FIND YOUR ASSIGNED SPOT WITHIN THE DURATION OF THIRTY MINUTES… FAILURE TO DO SO RESULTS IN IMMEDIATE DISQUALIFICATION,”

“RED, MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESIGNATED BLUE STRIP,”

“BLUE MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESIGNATED RED STRIP,”

“WHITE, MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESIGNATED BLACK STRIP,”

“BLACK, MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESIGNATED WHITE STRIP,”

“GREEN MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESIGNATED YELLOW STRIP,”

“YELLOW MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESIGNATED GREEN STRIP,”

“PURPLE MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESIGNATED BROWN STRIP….”

The voice explained that these colored strops were locations they had to find within thirty minutes and once they arrived there they would know that they had arrived at the right location.

The problem was finding the location.

According to the masculine voice giving them instructions, the colour strips they had to locate were down within the abyss of flames.

They would have to find a way to dive into the middle of the cracks and locate the colour strips.

The masculine voice explained that the flames were in no way bluffs and would burn them to crisp if they weren’t careful.

There were flaming split areas that had lower intensity compared to the others. These areas were the only paths to infiltrating the splits on the icy ground and finding the color strips.

They had weaker flames and would not hurt the mixedbloods but finding these areas would be immensely cumbersome.

The color strips were located beneath and according to the classification, one would have to find it and stay there with the others who had the same ribbon colour.

“We’re on the green team,” Falco voiced out while holding the green ribbon out.

“We have to find the yellow strip in less than thirty minutes,” Aildris stated as he peered at the pillar of flames bursting forth from the split ground in front of them.

E.E looked around and noticed they were around thirty other participants standing on this split part of the icy ground with them.

E.E looked around and noticed they were around thirty other participants standing on this split part of the icy ground with them.

“We have company… but there were no set instructions on the necessity of working together so we don’t need to worry about the others,” Aildris stated.

“True but working together might be beneficial as well,” E.E said as he observed the others.

“Can you open a vortex for us to cross through the flames to the bottom?” Falco asked E.E.

“Not a sensible option since I don’t know how deep we have to go… might end up spawning in an area full of intense flames,” E.E shook his head while responding.

“The voice did mention there were areas we could successfully make use of to travel towards the bottom,” Matilda reminded.

While they took a few seconds to plot their movement, some of the participants on the same icy split ground as them, began to move.

Fwhii! Fwwhhi! Fwhii! Fhwwi!

Some leapt from one icy split ground to the next, traveling forward.

While every space within the splits have flames bursting forth, some of the flames weren’t so high in height that they were uncrossable.

This made leaping over them possible, especially for mixedbloods of this calibre. Some Mixedbloods that were capable of flight had taken to the skies and began scouring the region.

This made it a whole lot easier for them but they would still have no choice but to swoop down when they needed to infiltrate some of the spaces in the cracks.

“Oh shit that was close,” A participant yelled out as he landed on a platform of ice after leaping over a wall of hot flames spewing from the cracks.

Despite successfully leaping over them, he felt the temperature from the flames was hot enough to turn him to barbecue in a manner of seconds.

He still felt the burns despite not making contact with the flames.

This was happening in other places as well. Some other participants took caution before leaping over the next wall of flames.

The flames spewing from the midst of the cracks were everywhere so it made it very difficult to pick which direction to move in since it blocked the view of those incapable of flight.

They could only use their senses to dicern their next step and even with that, things were still very difficult.

Fwwwhoooossshhhh!

A silver streak suddenly appeared in front of E.E and the others.

“This way,” Angy voiced out while pointing southeast.

Everyone turned to the direction Angy pointed in and leapt forward.

Fwwhiiiiii!

The icy platform on which only about twenty participants were left, rumbled vigorously as these ten leapt across the air.

Angy was the only one who didn’t leap forward with them.

Positioning herself in a running form, she sprinted forward once more.

Fwwwhioosshhh~

Angy’s figure dissappeared in an instant, causing a whooshing sound to reverberate across the place as immense winds spread from her initial position.

She didn’t even have to leap. Due to her intense speed, the flames were unable to make contact with her and instead parted ways as she charged forward.

It was almost like she was intangible when running forward and due to her speed it seemed like just a single step could take her across icy platforms, almost like she was floating.

This whole situation was not a problem for Angy.

The participants left on the platform had difficulty balancing themselves after these eleven left and the winds cause their outfits to flap intensely along with their hair.

Some participants had already made their way forward in a different direction and some of the participants left were finding it difficult to make a choice.

“I’m following them,”

“I’m going this way Jooze,”

“This direction seems more sensible,”

They knew the clock was ticking so they wasted no time in making their choice.

They began leaping forward as well, some in the same direction as E.E, Aildris and the others while others in a different direction.

–

“This way,” Angy voiced out again as they arrived on another icy platform.

Everyone followed her instructions knowing she must have scouted ahead already so her directions were accurate.

They went ahead to cross multiple more walls of fire while some participants also followed them from behind.

In other areas, the mixedbloods capable of flight flew across the region. They would occasionally swoop down to check on different areas they suspected might not be as hot.

Everyone was looking for the access points to getting through the flames so this part of the situation was not so easy.

Still the mixedbloods capable of flight had it easier than the others who were unable to do so.

it was even much more easier for some like Angy with such speed. The flames were unable to faze her.

About a few minutes later again they arrived on a platform in the middle of four walls of flames surrounding them on each side.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Luckily they controlled the distance in which the leapt earlier if not they would have found themselves in the midst of one of these flames upon landing within the splits.

The space on the icy platform was not very large so upon landing they had occupied most of it.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

A few more participants began to land here as well.

“Huh!? Arrrrrgghhhhhhh!”

One of them yelled out as they found themselves landing in one of the flames.

“Kiiarrrrrrghhhhhhhh!”

They kept screaming out as the flames roasted them.

E.E was about to create a vortex to help this person get out of the flames when the person suddenly disappeared.

The person had been teleported out which automatically meant disqualification. The others standing on this icy platform subconsciously shivered as they recalled the scream a moment ago.

There was no denying, it was a very painful experience even though one would get saved before they burnt to death.

“This is our way in,” Angy said as she pointed towards the left.
