Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling

Chapter 373: Face-Burning Pain (Part 2)



It's well aware that humans are very bad; many of its fish friends were caught by humans and eaten alive, something called sashimi?

At this thought, the sea turtle trembled suddenly, whimpering, it was just a 300-year-old baby turtle.

[Grandpa, come save me, I'm going to be eaten!!!]

Yun Ran cleared her ears, still the first time she knew she looked like human scum.

The sea turtle watched Yun Ran warily, its flippers moved, clearly wondering if it could outswim her if it tried to escape.

Xin Fu looked at the sea turtle's shell, noticed many barnacles on it, and pulled out a handy dagger from his waist, intending to help clean them off.

Looking at the dagger sparkling with a cold light, the sea turtle's beady eyes went wide, particularly as it saw the dagger getting closer and closer.

Its eyes rolled back, and its head drooped down limply, clearly fainting from fright again.

Xin Fu didn't realize the sea turtle had fainted from fear, thinking it had been out of water too long instead.

He immediately said to his other three teammates, "Hurry up and get some seawater over here!"

The three teammates summoned looked at each other, these were people from the Mystical Sect, they had already been subdued and suppressed by Yun Ran, and now they had to obey the orders of another unknown person?

But seeing that Yun Ran did not stop them, they immediately realized that Yun Ran was letting things take their course.

Thinking of how they were still in pain from being stepped on by Yun Ran before and their organs shifting, they could only reluctantly move.

Seeing their team member taking action, the other two had to follow suit and go as well.

Xin Fu had already started diligently cleaning the barnacles from the sea turtle.

The passed-out sea turtle felt the embrace of the seawater and thought it had returned to the sea, its drooping head immediately perked up.

But soon, it realized that it was dreaming, it was still surrounded by humans.

A tear rolled down from its eyes as it realized it could not escape anymore.

Its gaze towards Yun Ran carried a trace of anger, as it was about to start scolding, it heard the man squatting beside it speak, "The barnacles are cleaned off."

Its little brain, already unable to sustain an overload of events, had forgotten about scolding Yun Ran.

This moment, all of its attention was drawn to Xin Fu's words.

Only then did it feel the discomfort on its back had eased considerably.

[Eh, they weren't going to eat me, are they actually the fisherman friends my companions talked about?]

It had long been known in the sea that the fishermen on those big ships could help them remove those itchy things from their bodies.

It had heard many companions intentionally got caught in the fisherman's nets before.

So it's true, sigh, it was scared to death, thought it was going to die.

[Since they are friends, I certainly have to show gratitude, I wonder what kind of fish these humans like to eat...]

Yun Ran was truly speechless now, this sea turtle, even at 300 years old, was still such a naive sweetie.

It was nothing like the turtle previously raised by Principal Du's family.

"Lady Yun, I will send it back to the sea now."

With that said, Xin Fu called over the team members who had fetched water, and they carried the sea turtle towards the sea.

[Aiyo, being carried by humans feels like this, huh? So comfy; if only I could play like this all the time...]

With a "bang," the sea turtle was thrown into the sea, splashing water high into the air.

The little interlude was over, and it was time to get down to business. Yun Ran's fingers moved swiftly, beginning to calculate the possible locations of the Magic Artifact.

Before long, Yun Ran had figured out the location. Unexpectedly, the Big Competition Committee was quite generous; there were actually three items hidden on Reef Island.

The people sitting in front of the screens, apart from a few who knew about Yun Ran's impressive fortune-telling, many were puzzled watching her perform her calculations.

"Is she seriously doing divination? What a joke, since when is fortune-telling this easy?"

"What else could it be? She's just showing off to get attention. Just wait till she finds nothing and embarrasses herself."

"Don't say anything yet. Her act looks so convincing; it really seems real."

"Young people these days just aren't grounded, always after something new and flashy. Don't they realize that the traditions passed down by our ancestors can't be reinvented willy-nilly?"

...

Those who had been taught a lesson by Yun Ran initially kept quiet, adhering to the notion that if they had been duped, it was only fair for others to be duped as well.

Those who were unaware of the details were now eagerly looking forward to the spectacle with their various comments.

Xin Fu and the three spies were very aware of Yun Ran's divination abilities and not one dared to speak up and disturb her at this moment.

"Go to the reef about 100 meters ahead and search underneath."

Hearing Yun Ran's instructions, Xin Fu didn't doubt her for a second and immediately nodded, "Okay, I'm on it!"

Xin Fu's hands were wrapped in gauze, and the other three, now under his command, headed in the direction Yun Ran had indicated.

Yun Ran, on the other hand, went in the opposite direction to dig up another Magic Artifact.

When Xin Fu and his team arrived at the location, they saw a pile of disorderly rocks with no signs of being disturbed.

If this location hadn't been specified by Yun Ran, they would definitely have been skeptical by now.

"Dig!"

Following Xin Fu's command, the three, who had become the team's grunt workers, had no thoughts of resistance,

and began prying at the intact-looking rocks with tools they carried.

The people who had been watching the screens, observing these four young people take Yun Ran's words as a 'divine decree', were puzzled.

"This place doesn't look like it's hiding anything at all; no trace left behind. If they actually find something, I'll change my last name from Wang!"

"Based on my many years of experience, this place really doesn't look like it's hiding anything. But hey, young people always have their own ways, they'll learn from hitting walls."

"If you could so easily figure out where the Committee hid the Magic Artifact, wouldn't that be an assured victory?"

"We are all seniors here, how can we so harshly dampen the enthusiasm of the youth..."

Then, while they were still discussing, in the scene that many had asserted absolutely nothing would be found,

a small, Water Spirit-like box appeared, and on the top of the box, there was even the logo of the Big Competition Committee.

Just moments earlier, those who had spoken so confidently were suddenly silenced.

They say you shouldn't slap someone in the face, but at this moment, everyone just felt a burning shame on their cheeks.
