Chapter 316: Firing at the Pirate Ship
"Honestly, this is more embarrassing than funny! A first-level gardener's plant buggy is not as fast as a kid's bumper car!" Vander shouted.
Gulibo reflected deeply: "I only thought about getting a green Bo..."
"The most important thing about a vehicle isn't its color, but its speed."
"It's green! It has to be green anyway. The greener the plant, the more vibrant it is!"
"Come to think of it, this leaf decoration is quite delicious." Qing Ye ate the leaves.
"Stop eating the car, Xiaoye!!!"
Gubo struggled to smash the car for nearly 100 meters, but by then the bumper cars had long since vanished. Ji Huaisu angrily smashed the car in an attempt to speed up when she heard the man next to her comment, "The greener the better is typical gardener thinking. Treating art the way you would a plant won't produce the desired result."
"That makes a lot of sense, but..." Ji Huaisu squinted his eyes, "Wouldn't it be better for you to look in the mirror before criticizing others, Mr. Prosecutor?"
Prosecutor Benintic's voice came from a hundred meters away. He wasn't the last one in the group, as his car hadn't started yet. Because the steering wheel was installed at the rear of the car, the prosecutor inside couldn't start it anyway.
He was currently trying to touch the steering wheel in a difficult back bridge position, but he failed because his arms were not long enough!
Chu Hengkong suggested sincerely: "Why don't you reinstall it first."
"No need, I've already checked the details of this vehicle..."
"That's the car you assembled yourself. Is it really okay to say that while inspecting evidence?"
Prosecutor Benintic recovered from his back bridge position, gracefully adjusting his scarf as he exited the car. He reached behind the car and with a wave of his hands, two wooden planks with raised tips suddenly sprouted from beneath the pea-shaped wheels. Then, Prosecutor Benintic stood in a horse stance, his hands gripping the steering wheel at the rear.
"Spear of the Sacred Tree, start!"
"You actually gave the car a name..."
Finally, the impeccable vehicle, a work of art, started up, dragging Benintic along behind it like a wild horse. At this moment, Benintic took a small leap, placing both feet on the extended wooden planks! He controlled the runaway off-road vehicle with the demeanor of a seasoned hunter!
Gulibo's eyes widened. "What the hell does this have to do with a car? It's basically a sled!"
"This is the gentleman's way of traveling!" Benintic laughed heartily, pulling out a whip from somewhere and lashing out at the car. "This way we can finally conduct a safety assessment at a normal speed. Besides, the wind is quite pleasant, hahahahahahaha!"
"You, the prosecutor, are having more fun than the tourists, you bastard!"
Ji Huaisu looked at Benningtik's receding back and said worriedly, "This means we'll really be the last one."
"No." Chu Hengkong clenched his fists, "I, don't want to..."
"Alright buddy, I know you don't want to lose. Please be kind and come up with a solution before this martial arts madman gets angry!"
"Leave it to me." Qing Xia said confidently, "I will make this combat truck realize its potential!"
"Qingxia, have you learned any other plant motivation techniques?" Ji Huaisu was curious.
"No, I use viruses."
"……Why?"
"Hmm?" Qingxia tilted her head.
Ten seconds later, the children in front felt a gust of wind coming from behind them. Turning around, they saw the Gulp Smashing Pig charging forward with such ferocity that it resembled a pig with its rear end on fire. The car was filled with laughter: "I'm carsick!" "Hahaha, that's fast!" "My rear end is on fire..." "Oh my god, this car is on fire!"
The Grubo Smashcar was transforming from a peasant's armed tractor into a bosozoku street-blaster at a visible speed. Its rear half had turned a vibrant red, and its exhaust continuously released crimson particles as it drove. Qingxia's virus had caused the Smashcar to unleash 1000% of its potential, even at the cost of burning itself. At this moment, its speed was fast enough to compete in a Formula One race! But the price it paid was a self-destructive combustion of its hull!
Qingxia stepped on the hood of the car and said excitedly, "From now on, this car will be called Red Hare! It will be like the divine rabbit in the novel, and it will be able to achieve incredible speed when it is on fire!"
Chu Hengkong couldn't help but say, "Red Hare is a horse! Just like you, a horse!!"
Qingxia was shocked when she heard this: "What did you say..."
"Didn't I explain the Three Kingdoms story to you thoroughly from beginning to end? Why do you still have this kind of common sense misunderstanding?!"
"But Chu Hengkong, you didn't say Red Hare was a horse."
"I..." Chu Hengkong was as if he had been choked by a fishbone, "You..."
Qingxia pondered, "I was wondering how General Lu rode a rabbit into battle... So Red Hare is a horse? So, could it be that Dilu is also a horse?"
"First tell me what you originally thought Lu was."
"Judging from the fact that it can leap over the Tan River, which is several meters wide, it must be an extremely large flying fish."
"It's amazing that you could come up with the Fish Knight Liu Xuande!"
Chu Hengkong couldn't help but imagine Liu Bei riding a flying fish and Guan Yu riding a giant rabbit, galloping across the battlefield. His imaginative mind even helped him fill in the blank with a fierce Zhang Fei riding a wild boar. This strange image made his eyes go dark, and he wished he could erase half a minute of his memory to prevent it from being contaminated.
The appearance of such a bizarre car also had a considerable impact in real life. Prosecutor Benningtick immediately pulled out a notebook and wrote: "The plant assembly process poses a fire safety hazard..."
Fander's eyes were empty. "Wake up, Mr. Prosecutor, can you? You're in the Divine Tree City. Could you please find me something non-flammable?"
Benningtick was stunned when he heard this, his face darkening as he corrected his writing, "As a reminder, there are significant fire safety hazards in the Jingsha City-State..."
"I didn't ask you to change the range, idiot."
"...We recommend a city-wide fire hazard inspection next month." Benningtick put down his pen. "Please stop the burning vehicle over there immediately! Your actions have seriously threatened the safety of Jingsha's municipal government!"
Vander covered his eyes, thinking that there was really no room for rebuttal to this statement. It whispered, "I say, should we put out the fire first..."
"Gulibo, can we test-fire this artillery?" The knight lady, the only one who could splash water, asked in an innocent and cute tone.
"Sure, I've prepared a bomb pumpkin as a cannonball!" the little animal replied in a purer and more harmless tone.
"And now you're tinkering with weapons! Do you really have any idea you're in an amusement park?"
"But the road ahead does require weapons."
Finder took out his leopard-sniffing tube and looked. He saw a variety of glittering candies and snacks beginning to appear on the road ahead. These "drops" were arranged at instructive intervals, each pointing to a different race route. A few of the floating candies were clearly marked with numerical values. Xiaoye was firing a net from a machine gun, targeting them one by one.
"In other words, it's a Mazda racing car." Chu Hengkong said.
"McX Racing shouldn't allow such a supermodel car to compete..."
Objectively speaking, this track is cleverly designed, with a reasonable distribution of rewards, rivaling even the in-game maps. However, the Chitu Grub Smashing Car's sheer size and speed meant it snatched up all the food rewards in the four lanes ahead. The smaller cars didn't even get a sliver.
The kids on the next track were already fuming. "This is so unfair!" "Retire that car!" "Damn gardener..."
Ji Huaisu stuck his head out, unwilling to be outdone: "This is the power of adults, hahahahahaha!"
"There's an adult here who's embarrassed to be arguing with a kid. Hey, could you please keep an eye on your girlfriend?"
Chu Hengkong gently advised: "It's better for us to concentrate our firepower on getting the more difficult prizes."
"Speaking of difficult things..." Qingye peered out of the observation hole, "There's a big reward at 65° ahead!"
"Um..." Vander muttered, "That thing does score a lot, but...it should be the reward for the next race, right?"
The center of the sight is a pirate ship floating in the sky, about 5,000 meters away from everyone. There is an extremely tempting, golden "1000" painted on the ship.
·
On the flying pirate ship, the man in the suit put away the telescope, and the voice of another killer came from his headphones.
"What is Mr. Chu doing?"
"You know, I was really determined before accepting this surveillance mission. I thought Snake had a purpose for coming here, and we'd be able to glimpse the enemy's next move from this," the man in the suit said. "But it seems he's just here to bring women out for fun. My biggest reward is learning he's been cheating."
A loud cough came from the headset: "Ah? Him? Cheating?"
The man in the suit picked up the binoculars and took a peek: "Not only is he cheating, but he's also having three affairs at the same time."
To make it more convincing, he emphasized: "Three boats!"
"Oh my God, I really can't imagine it... You should find a chance to take a photo. If we mess up this time, we can use the evidence of the Sacrificial Snake's infidelity to buy his life." The man behind the headphones encouraged him.
"No thanks. The snake probably won't mind sparing your life, but he's definitely going to kill me," the man in the suit said. "That's what makes this mission so interesting."
Number 7 wasn't here today. The woman had cut off all communication the moment she heard the news, prepared to play coward, but she knew he'd eventually return. Compared to that manic little idiot, Number 5 was much more efficient. This man, Guo Yutu, didn't have a blood feud with Velus, which might be why he dared to act so boldly.
The man in the suit adjusted the binoculars. "Are you sure this surveillance camera is working? I'm afraid the snake might suddenly turn around and stare at me."
"I don't have any surveillance. The ones watching him are from Feiyan Amusement Park. I simply wired a line into the surveillance system. It passes through 37 relay stations before reaching my studio at the Third Pulse Sequence, and then through three layers of firewalls before reaching your telescope." Guo Yutu said, "If Young Master Chu can even detect this, it means his willpower is so sharp that he can sense even a single extra twitch of a cell in the divine power plant's camera. If he's that powerful, I suggest we forget about the mission and just jump into the sea hand in hand to commit suicide."
“So there’s no problem with this monitoring.”
"No problem. The image quality is so bad because I don't dare take any risks. I also selected the observation point in advance. They won't come into contact with the pirate ship until the latter half of the race, so there is more than enough time to observe the intelligence."
"Very good. Now, Automechanics Expert," the man in the suit put down his binoculars. "Can you explain what I just saw?"
"Let me see..."
Guo Yutu, who was far away in the third pulse sequence, choked for the second time: "What do you mean a pumpkin bomb flew in from five thousand meters away?!"
The man in the suit immediately jumped off the pirate ship. The next moment, the pumpkin bomb cannon pierced the ship, spilling the treasure inside and sending a candy rain down over the amusement park. The golden 1000-point number flew towards the speeding Red Hare. The knight girl pumped her fist, "Hit!"
"Bad news, Snake's new girlfriend is also a lunatic."
"The future is bleak," the killers said at the same time.
