Chapter 358: No Fire (2/2)

”It will be Sunday,” Emily said. ”After our other two roommates leave on Saturday, we will then take care of the rest of the things and move in on Sunday,” Emily said.

”Good! Good!” Hannah said.

They quickly reached the school and got off. Each of them made their way to their own classes.

”Alex, I will message you around 3 pm. We will have to go together to sign up,” Hannah said.

”Sure, sister,” Alex said and went to his classes. It felt weird for him to go back to classes after so many days of holidays. Even the friends he had made in his classes were showing the same symptoms.

He looked around his class in surprise. There were barely 30 people in a class that should have had 100 people in it. It seemed people didn't plan on returning for a while.

The professor walked in and sighed when she saw the class, but still taught what she had come to teach. After all 3 of his classes were done, Alex walked out.

His phone vibrated with Hannah's message and he quickly found her on the west gate of the university. They got into a cab and went out of the city to the driving range to learn.

For the next 2 hours, they registered themselves and took a small lesson about the various things they needed to learn before they even got into a car.

After 2 hours had passed, both Hannah and Alex went to a small restaurant to eat some food and caught a cab back home.

”I don't need to make anything for today right?” Hannah asked.

”I doubt so. I'm full right now. Given that I will spend the next 12 hours in the capsule, I probably won't even need to eat tomorrow morning,” Alex said.

”Very well then. I will see you tomorrow. Good Night,” Hannah said and went to her room.

”Good Night sister.”

Alex went back to his room and logged back into the game.

Inside the game, he once again remembered he had literally nothing to do. ”Urghh… I want to make some pills,” Alex thought.

However, there was no fire in here to help him at all, and he himself couldn't make fires either. There was no tree around him either. For some reason, the inside of the barrier was an open space.

Alex even wondered if there were more than just two formations used here. Once could be a formation that expanded the size of where he was.

He had an idea. He could use some of the wooden boxes and rub them together to make a fire. That would totally work. But then, he saw the problem with that.

”I can't sustain the fire at all. I will need to keep adding boxes to keep the fire going. Keeping it lit with Qi is just not a viable option. I will need to worry about the fire more than I do about the pills,” Alex thought.

”Sigh, are there other ways to make fires?” he wondered. It was then he remembered something. Something he hadn't interacted with for a long time.

”Hmm… that could work.”
