Chapter 194: Chapter 192: “Let’s go, jump off a building.
But before he could think further…
The second 360-degree loop ca.
Yet, as the roller coaster reached the top of the huge loop… it suddenly ca to a slow halt, stopping at the highest point.
“…”
Sword Without End expressionlessly tightened his grip on the steel pipe with his elbow, feeling his body suspended in midair, and looking down at the entire amusent park in silence without speaking.
Pretty good.
It was his first ti experiencing this kind of roller coaster, and it wasn’t bad.
Fortunately, he had already adapted to the sensation of weightlessness. If it were just that, it wouldn’t be too difficult.
The corners of Tuberculosis Rabbit’s mouth twitched slightly as his mouth opened and closed, wanting to say sothing biting but then swallowing the words back.
They weren’t suspended for too long.
It was only about five or six seconds.
The roller coaster then began to move again, gradually speeding up, and the group fell back into the carriage. Although it hurt a bit, luckily none were thrown out.
Just then—
Chen Yi’s eyes suddenly narrowed. From both sides of the steel pipe he was holding, small nozzles appeared, similar to those of a teeth cleaner. But before he could react, these nozzles started to spray so kind of liquid onto the steel pipe.
Upon feeling the liquid…
He slightly furrowed his brow, squeezed the steel pipe tighter with his arm, and held onto his right arm that was gripping the pipe even more firmly.
That liquid… was lubricant.
Sword Without End, realizing what the liquid was as well, went pale instantly, cursing internally.
‘What the hell is this crap!!!’
This steel pipe was their only safety asure, yet even so, they added difficulty to it. With the lubricant applied, the pipe in their elbows beca as slippery as a slick rod, sliding back and forth continuously.
The one thing to be thankful for was that they were holding onto the steel pipe with their elbows, not their hands. Otherwise, they would have been flung off long ago due to the lubricant.
The roller coaster underneath them continued to pick up speed.
The group got to experience what a real roller coaster felt like, their bodies barely staying in the seats, practically airborne the whole ti, akin to the delightful sensation of flying freely.
…
The thrilling 2-minute journey soon ended.
Sword Without End climbed off the seat with sowhat shaky legs, plopping down at the finish, looking at the chafed marks inside his elbows, and exclaid with a feeling of surviving a calamity,
“Can’t believe I made it down alive.”
“That was exhilarating.”
Tuberculosis Rabbit glanced at the abrasions on the inside of his own elbows and, similarly full of emotion, clicked his tongue and said, “Several tis, I felt like I was about to be thrown off. If Yi hadn’t been holding onto , I might have actually been flung away.”
“Right.”
At this, Tuberculosis Rabbit turned his head in confusion towards Chen Yi, “Yi, how were you able to free your hands to grab in that situation?”
“Stay more composed inside, and you won’t be thrown off so easily. Don’t fight the inertia; just go with it and hold on tight. It’s not that difficult,” Chen Yi said as he shook his head, not explaining too much.
In fact, it truly wasn’t difficult.
He was innately fearless. Without fear, riding an unprotected roller coaster was only a matter of whether he could hold on tight enough.
Even without a prop, holding onto sothing tightly wasn’t a very difficult task for him.
“Let’s rest a bit, then move on to the next one.”
…
There were four attractions within the No. 1 ruins.
They had already experienced one attraction, leaving three more to go.
The second attraction.
“Pirate Ship.”
Once again taking the lead, Sword Without End sat in the middle of the ship and, upon inspecting his surroundings, said with so surprise, “There are actually safety belts, Yi, this attraction has safety belts, that makes it quite a bit easier.”
Relieved, Sword Without End buckled himself in tightly with the safety belt and began waiting for the Pirate Ship to start.
Chen Yi and the others also found their seats and sat down.
With safety belts, the Pirate Ship attraction seed to lose so of its pressure. They had just tested the strength of the safety belts and found them to be fairly reliable, unlikely to snap open easily.
The Pirate Ship was essentially a giant swing.
However, it was shaped like a pirate ship, with many seats that people could freely choose from. Then, it would start swinging back and forth, tilting up to nearly 80 degrees at its peak.
The repetitive sensation of weightlessness and its outwardly undemanding appearance made the Pirate Ship seem like an amusent park ride ant for kids. But in reality, it was an extrely thrilling attraction, known as the amusent park assassin.
Just after the group had taken their seats for a short while,
the Pirate Ship started.
It began rocking from side to side, slowly rising and then falling.
Just as Sword Without End was contently enjoying this relatively easy attraction, he suddenly heard a notification.
“Ding, a Pirate Ship has initiated a cannon fire attack on you, please evade the enemy’s cannon fire to the best of your ability.”
In the airspace next to them, a translucent Pirate Ship appeared out of nowhere, floating in midair, with its cannons uniformly aiming at them.
Underneath the seats of Chen Yi and others, a red circle that kept flashing appeared.
This red circle indicated the precise landing point of the cannonballs.
This ant they had to unbuckle their safety belts imdiately and move to safety, but they were still on the swinging Pirate Ship. Where could they escape to?
Chen Yi’s expression grew slightly serious as he quickly undid his safety belt, and taking advantage of the mont when the downward motion lessened the sensation of weightlessness, he swiftly left his seat and ran to an adjacent one, gripping the handle on the seat firmly.
Moving on the operating Pirate Ship.
This was a novel experience many people would never have in their lifeti.
And now, three people were enjoying this experience all at once.
Soon.
The Pirate Ship gradually ca to a halt.
Sword Without End’s legs felt weak again as he leaned against the wall, murmuring weakly in his eyes, “Let’s rest for a while, rest for a while, I’m a bit overwheld.”
“After all these years, this is the first ti I felt my heart pounding so intensely.”
“Don’t get wrong, it’s not that I’m scared of this amusent park ride, it’s just that the safety asures are too rudintary—in fact, there are none at all.”
“No big deal.”
Tuberculosis Rabbit, already getting used to it, began to grow excited, “Haven’t you noticed that when we ride these rides without safety asures, we play with more focus and also find it much more thrilling?”
“Yes, focus, you’d see a ghost if you weren’t focused.”
“The sentence I just said had no inflectional particle, it’s completely literal.”
“If you’re not focused, you’d end up seeing a ghost. Now tell , who isn’t focused?”
Chen Yi didn’t rush them and only after both had rested for a while did they head towards the next attraction.
“Let’s go, let’s jump off a building.”
