Chapter 1749: Chapter 919: Let Us Row Together_2

Gou Wa gritted his teeth and looked at one person: ”You stay here, hide well and don’t let those behind us discover you. Don’t worry, I’ll come back to get you.”

After saying this, he hardened his heart and also stepped into the next unknown territory.

...

...

At 2 PM, Buddha also reached the finish line. Fortunately, there were experts from the Chen Clan present, otherwise, they would all have capsized.

Everyone staggered onto the shore with exhausted bodies, standing on the stone platform to acquire clearance qualification.

At this moment, Buddha lowered his voice and said to the Chen Clan expert: ”Let’s wait, let Gou Sheng’s group go in first to scout the way.”

The expert from the Chen Clan hesitated for a moment: ”Okay.”

Although he had to complete the tasks given by the boss, facing the Master of Daytime, how could he not feel the pressure?

A hundred of him wouldn’t be enough to fend off such a challenge.

The boss instructed him to trail Qing Chen without letting him go, to apply pressure on him, to corner Qing Chen in the amusement park, but not to be sent to his death.

If Qing Chen didn’t clear the next level and was just lying in ambush on a path, that would be intolerable for anyone.

After drying their clothes, everyone hid in the woods by the shore.

At 2:30 PM, Gou Sheng and his group arrived on shore, cursing: ”That wretch Buddha, he robbed us of our kayak, and we don’t even know what the next stage entails... Buddha and his group should have already gone in to scout the way, right? Let’s hurry in as well, perhaps we can ask Buddha for some advice.”

The group passed the turnstile, walking quickly for over ten kilometers, when they suddenly saw a huge racetrack ahead.

The racetrack was winding, uneven, much like the roads of Chongqing, astonishingly resembling a labyrinth!

And this racetrack... was filled with bumper cars, very common in parks!

Gou Sheng walked in, but after just two steps, he saw Gou Wa, Qing Chen, and the others sitting on more than twenty bumper cars ahead.

Qing Chen was resting with his eyes closed, pondering repeatedly over the details since entering the amusement park, trying to connect them all together.

Unfortunately, information was still too limited, and this was only the third level.

When he heard footsteps, he slowly turned his head from the bumper car to look at Gou Sheng.

Gou Sheng’s heart skipped a beat under Qing Chen’s gaze... the pressure was intense.

Why was this boss waiting for him here?

”Where... where’s Buddha,” Gou Sheng’s voice trembled.

Qing Chen thought for a moment and said: ”If I’m not mistaken, there are only two possibilities, either they all capsized while rafting, or they’re hiding in the woods on the left of the stone stele, letting you come to scout the way.”

”Please don’t kill me...” Gou Sheng pleaded.

Qing Chen smiled: ”I’m here to play the game, to clear the levels, not to waste time killing a small fry like you. Hurry up, get in the bumper car, the game is about to start.”

Just then, a clear and melodious girl’s voice rang out on the racetrack: ”All players please take your positions, this round is a mixed battle. Two teams will compete for the total score to determine the winner. Colliding with the sides of other vehicles earns 10 points; colliding with their rear earns 20 points. The winner receives information rewards, the loser may continue to play but won’t receive any information rewards. During the game, leaving the vehicle leads to disqualification.”

Gou Sheng felt relieved knowing that losers were not eliminated. He looked at Qing Chen: ”You really won’t kill me?”

”A Knight’s promise is worth a thousand gold pieces, I won’t kill,” Qing Chen said casually.

Gou Sheng touched his chin, knowing that without leaving the vehicle, and since everyone was driving the same model bumper car, even the Qing Clan House Master wouldn’t have an advantage.

He got into the car with his brothers: ”Come on, maybe we can win.”

The moment they all got in, the safety locks on the cars automatically engaged.

Gou Sheng was not worried but delighted, now it was utterly fair; not only he couldn’t exit the car, but neither could they... Damn it!

When Gou Sheng turned to look, he saw that at the moment the safety lock engaged, everyone on Qing Chen’s side had pulled out a paddle from the bumper car, gripping it tightly.

”Wait a minute! This is against the rules!” Gou Sheng exclaimed, feeling sick as he realized they were carrying weapons. Who plays bumper cars like this?

However, Qing Chen had long discovered that, while the Taboo Land forbade using tools, it only prohibited external tools and not those within the amusement park!

Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to use kayaks when rafting.

Furthermore, during the clearance of the merry-go-round, the girl’s voice clearly stated: Kayaks are free of charge, feel free to use them.

She wasn’t even saying ”ride” but ”use”! As a reward information, it was indeed a reminder for him to find all useful tools!

In places like this, any pedantic behavior is not excessive, as the clues and chance of victory are hidden within the hints themselves!

Ding!

Ding!

Ding!

”The game begins!”

Everyone on Qing Chen and Gou Wa’s side floored their accelerators, howling and steering with their left hand while swinging paddles with their right, charging towards Gou Sheng, looking like they were damn well fighting on horseback.

Gou Sheng was completely shattered, driving his bumper car desperately to escape.

If the accelerator was even slightly slow, the paddle would strike his head with a resounding thud!

If you get hit by others it’s one thing, but taking a paddle hit from Qing Chen could splatter brains all over the steering wheel!

According to the game logic itself, everyone being locked in their bumper cars completely disregarded personal prowess; even if you were a demigod, you’d have to obediently play bumper car.

Until Qing Chen held a paddle.

A bunch of bumper cars sped into the racetrack labyrinth, the battle was one-sided from the start.

Gou Sheng shouted: ”Spread out!”

With a buzz, 22 bumper cars scattered into different forks.

Gou Wa chased behind Gou Sheng, swinging the paddle and howling: ”For making me look bad, for making me look bad!”

Gou Sheng’s lips curled into a cold smile. Just then, a bumper car hiding in ambush suddenly shot out from a diagonal, colliding with Gou Wa’s bumper car side!

points!

However... Gou Wa didn’t care at all, even after being ambushed, he didn’t flee. Instead, he took both hands off the steering wheel, gripping the paddle to strike the assailant who collided with him.

The hitman’s head was full of lumps, reversing away swiftly.

Frankly, they never expected that children’s bumper cars could feel so vicious and violent.

Who came up with this?!

Gou Sheng now didn’t even think about counterattacking, running upon sight of a paddle, perhaps there’d still be a chance to leave alive, failing to escape would mean dying on the car.

Three hours passed, the score display on the racetrack showed Qing Chen’s team with 3560 points, Gou Sheng’s team with 110 points.

China’s football team never suffered this badly against Brazil.

Ding!

”Qing Chen’s team wins, congratulations on clearing the level! The team captain may come below the scoreboard to hear the reward information! The highest scoring tourist of the round: Qing Chen, 1310 points! May come alone to hear additional reward information!”

With a click, the safety locks were released, Qing Chen came below the scorecard.

First piece of information: ”Remember, the Big Pendulum might randomly throw out a tourist!”

What the hell, randomly throw out a tourist...

Second piece of information: ”The roller coaster area is not on the left of the ghost house, but on the right!”

Qing Chen lowered his head deep in thought, this Big Pendulum information might be useful soon, but the next piece was perplexing.

In the tourists’ notice, it was clearly indicated that the roller coaster and ghost house areas don’t exist, yet it advised what to do if seeing those areas.

Now, the reward information actually negated what was in the tourists’ notice!

This is... a rule paradox?!

Which piece of information should he believe, does the roller coaster area truly exist?

At this time, Gou Wa walked over.

Qing Chen calmly questioned: ”Satisfied?”

”Satisfied.”

”Where are they?”

”Still locked in the bumper cars; the amusement park hasn’t released them. It seems if they don’t wait for the next team, they might just sit dead in those cars,” Gou Wa replied.

Nearby teammates were all taken aback; if no one came next, to starve to death in a bumper car would be quite cruel.

”Should we kill them?” Gou Wa asked.

”No.”

Gou Wa queried: ”You could have easily killed them with a single strike earlier, I’m curious why you didn’t.”

Qing Chen calmly looked at him: ”Because the Water Ghost is still on my back.”
