I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today - Chapter 443:
Chapter 443: Chapter 443: Losing Consciousness
After the boat sank to the bottom, the rate at which the water level rose slowed, possibly due to the internal air pressure and the exit being blocked by mud at the bottom of the lake.
But the threat of death still loomed.
Bai Youwei held up Shen Fei’s head, pushing hard upward, attempting to keep him in a sitting position so his head would stay above water.
She struggled with these efforts, cursing under her breath, growing increasingly agitated.
If only she hadn’t made those claims before entering the game.
Something about rescuing someone if they fell into the water, what nonsense! Now, not only could she and Shen Fei not wait for Shen Mo to rescue them, but she also had to figure out a way to save Shen Fei herself!
The water had already reached her neck, and there was no sound from the outside.
She grew worried, would that idiot Tan Xiao not know his left from his right?
She had rushed him earlier and hadn’t had the chance to clarify which “left” she meant. It would have been better if she had defined directions using the cardinal points.
…Could Tan Xiao even distinguish north, south, east, and west?
With these thoughts running through her mind, Bai Youwei’s headache intensified.
As Shen Fei kept tilting his head downward in his unconscious state, water flooded his mouth and nose. Bai Youwei found it increasingly difficult to hold him up. She had no choice but to force herself to stand, with one hand holding onto a window frame and the other yanking his hair, pushing his head upwards.
At this point, who cared about being too rough? She was struggling just to stand herself, now she was forced to support another person too. It was truly an unreasonable situation!
Bai Youwei was filled with resentment.
Bam!
A muffled noise resounded through the cabin. Startled, she immediately turned to look—
It was pitch black under the water, through the window she could only see the murky water filled with mud, with a few dark strands of algae floating by occasionally.
The banging noise continued, but Tan’s Xiao figure was nowhere in sight.
Without a doubt, he had hit the wrong window.
A sense of despair rose within Bai Youwei!
Which implied that she had to drag Shen Fei to the window by herself!
Of course, she could wait for Tan Xiao to climb into the cabin, find them, then drag Shen Fei out. But once the window was broken, the cabin would fill with water immediately. If Shen Fei stayed underwater too long, he would drown!
After all, not all players were like them, having eaten the fish brought by the spring guest, able to stay unharmed underwater.
She had to get Shen Fei out as quickly as possible!
Her mind was filled with chaotic thoughts. Bai Youwei clenched her teeth, enduring her volatile temper and pulling Shen Fei’s collar, she headed toward the opposite cabin.
Moving underwater was no easy feat.
But thankfully, buoyancy made it barely possible for her to drag an adult man.
After finally reaching the aisle, she heard a loud bang! The window in the opposite cabin was broken!
Water rushed in!
Under the force of the rushing water, Bai Youwei quickly grasped the doorframe while Shen Fei was swept away!
Bai Youwei couldn’t help but curse out loud: “Damn it!!!”
…
Shen Fei was swept to the end of the hallway by the current, slamming into various debris, too disoriented to identify what they were.
He vaguely knew he was underwater, it was cold and dark all around…
Someone grasped his hand.
He exerted effort to open his eyes, intending to see who it was, but all he could see were the black algae, forming tangled strands, rippling along…
The touch was gentle yet icy-cold, vivid yet dreamlike.
Incredible.
But the suffocation intensified his dizziness…
He reached out to part the black algae and saw a pure white dress, as light as semi-translucent cicada wings, it seemed to glow under the rippling water, making his vision even more blurry.
In the chaos, he was yanked up to the surface.
The sunlight was blinding.
His lungs burned.
He could vaguely hear Shen Mo’s voice, Yan Qingwen’s voice, various voices…
Then, he lost consciousness
