Chapter 1004: Chapter 1004 Ice Queen 15
Ice Queen, still with that unsmiling deanor.
She holds her staff, walking to a position about ten steps away from the two, observing the rose seedlings in their hands.
The seedlings have grown quite large, their lively greenery starkly contrasting the cold, white space. If they really bloom, it would be a sight to behold.
She looked for a long ti, those calm eyes seemingly peering through the seedlings at sothing else…
“What are you looking at?” Chang Weicai asked hoarsely.
Ed was startled, his eyes widening as he looked at Chang Weicai surprised that the old man was directly speaking to the ga character. What was he trying to do?
The woman slightly raised her eyes to look at the old man before her, silent for a mont, she answered, “These flowers… are fascinating. Whenever I see them, so mories appear in my mind… But, I can’t plant them myself. Anyone or anything that cos close to turns into ice.”
“Have you lost your mory?” Chang Weicai asked again.
“How could a ga character lose their mory?” Ed interjected, “She needs the roses because of the ga system’s settings. Whatever the system sets her to do, she will do. She is not an individual. The system requires players to plant roses for her, which is why we are doing these tasks here! Everything that happens here is just to fulfill her requirents, it’s all just because of the setting!”
Chang Weicai stared at the woman, “…Is that so? The people under the sea, did they die because they couldn’t fulfill your demands?”
The woman was expressionless.
Chang Weicai urgently asked, “Do you know them? Rember them? Do you know who you are? Why did you let them die?”
Ed was frustrated, “Hey, old man! What are you doing? This woman is a ga character! Not a real person!”
Chang Weicai did not know why he asked those questions, his gaze sorrowful as he looked at the woman, thinking: Perhaps… perhaps it’s because all of this is hard to accept.
The woman’s gaze lightly swept over the two n, showing neither anger nor confusion, just a brief glance before she dropped the words:
“I will co again in 6 hours.”
Another six hours.
…
Chang Weicai and Ed began another round of waiting.
The campfire brought warmth, the ice provided water, the soil allowed the plants roots to grow fully, and the rose seedlings thrived, unknowingly having grown half a ter tall.
Between the leaves, thumb-sized buds erged, cute and round with light green sepals.
Ed was both delighted and nervous.
He had observed that his rose buds were slightly larger than Chang Weicai’s, with red tips already visible, whereas Chang Weicai’s buds just showed bare pedicels and sepals, with no petals in sight.
Thus, there’s a good chance his roses would bloom first.
He must maintain this advantage.
Subconsciously, Ed began to add more wood to the fire, hoping to increase the temperature and make his roses bloom earlier.
Chang Weicai noticed this and looked at Ed, biting his tongue.
In fact, during blooming, too much heat or moisture could cause the blossoms to wilt prematurely.
But now, at the final phase, he really had no reason to remind his competitor, he had to worry about sothing else—how to handle Ed’s outrage if the buds withered.
That would be tough.
One can neither harm others nor let one’s fragile plant be damaged… perhaps those people also faced such situations, which is why they all died here?
Chang Weicai silently sighed.
How did he unknowingly start thinking of these things again…
“Haha! It blood! My rose has blood!” Ed suddenly exclaid with joy.
Chang Weicai was surprised, how could it happen so quickly?
However, as he looked over, he saw Ed’s expression change dramatically!
“Ah ah ah ah!!!”
Ed scread in terror, his fingertip being fiercely gripped by the split open bud!
