The instant he opened the gate.
Everything around him changed.
Shen Ye discovered that he was not in the underground passage at all.
It was like a movie-
The scenery around him kept hurtling backward.
He could see a young man flying through the air, returning to Heart of the Lake Island and talking to his classmates.
That young man was himself.
Interesting...
So he was watching what happened to himself?
"What just happened?"
Nangong Sirui asked.
Xiao Mengyu chimed in, "It seemed like some underground restriction was activated, briefly affecting us-there's really no need to be afraid."
Looking thoughtful, Nangong Sirui turned toward him.
"Shen Ye, what do you think?"
He asked.
Shen Ye watched himself think for a moment before answering, "Whatever it was, let's go. We need to hurry and dig a passage upward."
"Okay!" everyone answered in unison.
"But we don't have any tools," Guo Yunye said worriedly.
"We do! Teacher Yang Yingzhen had me prepare lots of tool kits, and they include digging tools," Zhang Xiaoyi said.
Everyone immediately grew excited.
...No, something was wrong.
At that moment, Shen Ye saw a monster over three meters tall standing behind all his classmates.
He had absolutely no idea when it had arrived.
Even as he watched everything unfold as though "watching a movie," Shen Ye still had no idea how it had appeared.
The monster had a woman's head and was black all over, its back hunched and its body like a wild beast's, with both hands and feet on the ground and faint dark mist rising from its back.
Despite how conspicuous it was, none of his classmates reacted to its appearance.
Everyone discussed how they would dig the passage in a moment.
Shen Ye looked at himself in the scene.
He showed no reaction
