Hei Zeji was a person who spoke as he pleased.
If he didn't want to say something, he wouldn't say it. If he didn't think it was necessary, he wouldn't say it. If he was too lazy to say it, he wouldn't say it. He wouldn't even consider the consequences. Lin Sanjiu didn't know why, but right now, she was suffering because of it.
It was rare for Hei Zeji to give such a long explanation, but he had left out a very important point.
If two people with a huge disparity in combat power were to play a game, the difficulty of the game would be set based on the posthuman with the higher combat power. In other words, from a certain perspective, Starry Carnival Amusement Park only cared about those Growth-type posthuman with high potential and ability.
This also meant that the Bumper Kart Stadium had set the difficulty of the first round at a level that Hei Zeji would find slightly challenging.
The duration of the first round for Hei Zeji was five minutes.
Obviously, Lin Sanjiu's life and death were not taken into consideration by the Bumper Kart Stadium.
"Hey, Hei Zeji, uhhhhhhhhh —"
Lin Sanjiu screamed before she could finish her sentence. Lin Sanjiu turned the steering wheel abruptly, and her blue car almost flipped over. She missed another pink bumper car by a hair's breadth. Lin Sanjiu had to use her arm to support herself from the ground to stabilize her car.
Before she could even heave a sigh of relief, the pink bumper car turned and disappeared into thin air.
"What?"
Lin Sanjiu was startled by the sudden appearance of a white car. She was like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow. When she saw that it was Hei Zeji, she took advantage of the fact that there were no cars nearby to ask him, "What's going on? Why are there so few bumper cars? "
It had only been a few seconds since the game started, but she was already feeling a little weak. If the last time was just a slightly dangerous bumper car game, then this time, it was simply a killing trap.
It wasn't quite accurate to say that all the bumper cars had disappeared. Not far from them, there were more than ten bumper cars of various colors circling around, tailing the two players. From time to time, they would pounce at them at high speed. However, compared to the previous round, at least half of the bumper cars in the stadium had disappeared, revealing an empty area.
"I didn't expect them to be invisible now …?"
Before Hei Zeji could answer, Gu Xijiu had already asked the question. Lin Sanjiu was suddenly knocked forward by a huge force. When she turned her head, she saw a green bumper kart that didn't exist a moment ago biting at her from the empty space behind her. She cursed in her heart, "X!" A familiar female voice rang out from behind him. "… You crashed into a green bumper car. For the next 15 seconds, you can only move from the bumper car.
He traveled through the 'forest'. Otherwise, you will be hit continuously. "
— — Why are the rules different now?
Just as she was waiting for Hei Zeji to say something, the pink bumper kart appeared out of thin air once again. Fortunately, it was coming from behind her, so there was still some distance between them. It wasn't difficult to dodge it. All she had to do was turn the steering wheel.
"Don't turn!"
Following Hei Zeji's shout, the crescent moon instantly appeared above Lin Sanjiu's hands and stabbed down. Lin Sanjiu was caught off guard as she pulled her hands back and the crescent moon almost cut her wrists off. "Move back!" he shouted.
With no time to think, Lin Sanjiu quickly stepped on the control valve. The moment she stepped on it, she remembered that the green bumper kart was still behind her.
However, when the pink bumper kart screeched to a stop at the spot where she was just a moment ago, Lin Sanjiu's kart had already retreated into the air behind her. The green bumper kart had already disappeared without her noticing.
Unexpectedly, the pink bumper kart did not chase after her. Instead, it spun around like a living creature looking for directions. Then, it slid back for some distance and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"What … what's with these bumper kart?" Lin Sanjiu asked with a grim expression.
Hei Zeji turned to her with a scowl.
"Have your five senses been eaten by dogs?" He swerved his car and dodged another bumper kart that appeared out of nowhere, "Did you survive the previous round by relying on your physical fitness?"
Initially, she was a little unconvinced. Lin Sanjiu wanted to say something, but she was rendered speechless.
"That does seem to be the case …"
"Listen up," Hei Zeji's tone seemed to always carry a hint of impatience, "… The space in this place has been dislocated and folded into the shape of pages. Since the light cannot shine directly on them, the space in this place has been folded into pages. Since the light can't shine directly on them, you can't see … "
Before he finished his sentence, the white bumper kart made a sharp turn and disappeared along with the bumper kart that attacked Hei Zeji.
"Even though I can't see them, there are signs when they come out of the folded space." Contrary to what Hei Zeji said, Lin Sanjiu felt that Hei Zeji had appeared out of thin air, and he had even changed his position, "Your senses are too weak. You should practice how to avoid their attacks first."
"What does the folded space look like?" Lin Sanjiu quickly asked, "Why can't I walk through the forest?"
"I don't know. I can only close my eyes and drive. However, it seems like it's filled with runways … Don't think that you'll be fine just because you can avoid one direction. The runways are all 360-degree, so the bumper kart can come out from any direction. "
After pausing for a moment, Hei Zeji narrowed his eyes.
"As for the forest, I guess it's the place where the green bumper kart has been to … In other words, from this moment onwards, not only do you have to remember where the green bumper kart has been to, you also have to pay attention to their movements … Once you reach a place where no green bumper kart has been to, you will be punished."
After saying so much in one go, Hei Zeji seemed to be too lazy to deal with Lin Sanjiu anymore. While she was deep in thought, he stepped on the floor and drove off.
Even though both of them had exchanged quite a lot of information, it had only been less than half a minute since the game started. The moment Hei Zeji walked away, three to four bumper karts cut in between them. They sped towards Lin Sanjiu with menacing speed.
Lin Sanjiu took a deep breath and suppressed her uneasiness. She tried her best to ignore the bumper kart that was getting closer and closer.
Even though she wasn't a genius, she was quite perceptive. Just as Hei Zeji finished his sentence, she realized that the bumper kart that was always in her line of sight wasn't the main threat.
"Green … Green …"
From the very beginning of the Bumper Car game. She didn't even have time to catch her breath, so how could she notice which colored car was going which way? This was simply making things difficult for him! As Lin Sanjiu racked her brain to recall, she sighed inwardly, "If only I still have my observation ability from the School of Higher Consciousness …"
Hei Zeji was right. Her five senses were indeed too slow.
Until the blue car was hit by a head-on force and slid back a few steps. It was only then that Lin Sanjiu realized that a bumper kart had appeared out of thin air in front of her. She didn't even notice it.
"When hit by a brown bumper car, the effect is
'Bury the seed deep in the ground' will continue until the end of the game. "
Lin Sanjiu was stunned. Then, she felt an invisible object pouncing on her face, covering her mouth and nose tightly. It was as if she was buried alive, and she couldn't even breathe.
"What the hell are you doing?" At the other end of the arena, Hei Zeji bellowed angrily, "Didn't I tell you to pay attention to the signs before a bumper car appears?"
Lin Sanjiu, whose brain had been cut off from oxygen, blushed immediately. She couldn't even say a word. How could she pay attention now that she was cut off from the air?
From the corner of her eye, she saw a bumper car in front of her. Lin Sanjiu quickly stepped on the valve and drove cautiously to the spot where she was hit by the green bumper car. Even when she couldn't breathe, it was already several times more difficult than usual.
More than ten bumper cars swarmed toward Lin Sanjiu like sharks that had smelled blood. She didn't have more than three seconds to dodge. Lin Sanjiu could hear her blood pounding in her ears, and fear crept into her heart.
"The reason why Soulsqn ended up like that was probably because she ended up together with me. Will I end up like that as well?"
There were only two seconds left before the nearest bumper car bumped into her.
Where did the green bumper car go?
Even Lin Sanjiu herself didn't realize that her higher consciousness had been activated and was circulating at a crazy speed.
There was less than one second left. She could even see the words on the pink bumper car.
"Over there!"
It was as if a dazzling white light had pierced through the darkness. Just when Lin Sanjiu thought that she was going to be hit, a scene suddenly appeared in her mind. It was so vivid and clear that it was like a painting that she had been staring at for a long time.
Lin Sanjiu's heart raced. She knew that it was too late for her to turn the steering wheel. She extended her skeletal wing on her left and hit the ground hard. When the blue bumper car was halfway over, she stepped on the accelerator. Using the force from her right skeletal wing, the bumper car skidded across the ground, creating a trail of sparks as it sped to the right. When her concentration reached such a high level, she suddenly calmed down. She wasn't sure if it was an illusion, but she felt as if her body and joints had become lighter and smoother.
In the deepest part of her memory, which she thought she had forgotten, a green bumper car had passed in this direction.
Lin Sanjiu waited with her heart in her throat for half a second. Her face was flushed from holding her breath, but she didn't hear any "punishment".
She was on the right track. (To be continued.)
PS:
The long paragraph I typed just now is all gone! It's heartbreaking! The following is a repetitive handwriting. You guys have to treasure it.
Sigh, I start to doubt my life when I'm at the second chapter … Is this chapter well written? How are the characters? Why did I write this book? These thoughts run through my mind from the beginning to the end. I heard that it's commonly known as vomiting. Can I submit a request for the next chapter to be my face rolling on the keyboard?
Thank you to Jiaojiao Old Reader, Persimmon Plucking Little Mushroom, Bastard Mushroom, Reed Nian Nian, Perfume Sachet, Frozen Mash, Book Friend 151201125314435, Heartless Ghost, Bread and Milk House, Lareina0V0 Talisman, and Tianbian's monthly vote!
If I'm at the second chapter, the list of thanks will be shorter. I'll have a lot of space to nag! Tell me, what do you guys want to hear? I won't sing anything you guys want to hear. How about a segment at the place where the chrysanthemums are blooming?
