Chapter 78 The air was filled with the scent of joy as the metal badges were worn...
A person who desperately wants to die might choose to end their short and tragic life by jumping off a building.
Compared to any other method of dying, falling from a height is the easiest way to die.
Simply stand on high ground, spread your arms, tiptoe, and lean your body slightly, and you can enjoy a moment of true freedom that belongs only to you in the last few seconds of your life, just like a carefree bird soaring freely.
The speed of free fall is so fast that there's no time to feel the wind cutting into your cheeks, no time to feel the excruciating pain still lingering in your consciousness, and it's all over.
But this is completely different from everyone's current situation.
They were more like wingsuit pilots sprinting downhill at full speed.
Everything was under his control, but just as he was about to break through the limit altitude, he suddenly discovered that his only safety guarantee—the parachute—could not open properly.
They had no freedom, no liberation. All they had was endless despair and the terror of being tormented both physically and mentally.
Everything happened so suddenly that they weren't even prepared.
Aren't drop towers and high-altitude swings two completely different kinds of attractions?
This was Liang Jun's last thought as she fell.
Because her right hand was still gripping the steel cable, Liang Jun was thrown off the swing seat by inertia and continued to fall headfirst into the air.
If it weren't for this life-saving rope, she would probably be dead by now.
The air in the lungs is being continuously compressed.
Besides the inability to breathe, Leung Yung also felt that there might be an unseen hand, like squeezing the last bit of cleanser at the bottom of a tube, trying to push her internal organs out of her mouth.
it hurts.
At such moments, "screaming" is no longer a symbol of venting emotions, but a sign that a person is still conscious.
Unfortunately, during the accelerated descent, every seat on the high-altitude swing remained quiet, and even the heavy breathing ceased to be heard.
After a brief five seconds, their bodies were violently thrown back into the swing seats.
The lost sense of touch is slowly returning.
Liang Jun first felt a numbness in her limbs, then gradually felt the solidity in her feet. She looked down and found her feet on a patch of scarlet mud.
A gash appeared on his palm, tearing open the skin and flesh.
During the high-speed friction of the steel wire, the bleeding on my hands was somewhat stopped by the high temperature.
Liang Jun felt a little dizzy, as if something wanted to break through all obstacles and surge out from the bottom of her stomach.
She couldn't hold it in and vomited a mouthful of blood at her feet.
It turned out that the crimson stain was blood he had vomited while he was unconscious.
Liang Xuan used her dirty, disheveled sleeves to quickly wipe the corners of her mouth.
After spitting out the blood, Liang Jun actually felt much clearer-headed. Holding onto the armrests on both sides of the chair, she struggled to get up and move to the side.
Aside from the unharmed staff in yellow uniforms, Liang Jun was the first player to wake up.
Gu Keke's head hit the seat armrest directly, and she lost consciousness.
Liang Xun was terrified, worried that something might have happened to her again, so she knelt down in front of her and patted her back.
"Wake up, Coco, wake up!"
"Um……"
Thankfully, she only fainted temporarily.
Gu Keke smacked her lips and groggily opened her eyes. "Is it over?"
Liang Jun breathed a sigh of relief. "It's over. You just fainted. You almost scared me to death."
There was a hazy feeling in her eyes, so Gu Keke rubbed them with her hands. When she looked at Liang Xuan's face again, she was suddenly shocked.
"Why is there blood in your mouth? Did you vomit blood?!"
"It's nothing serious."
What Liang Jun said is true.
She didn't feel any pain in her body, probably just a sudden surge of anger. She was much better off now than when she was suffering in silence.
She wiped her mouth again. "Can you get up now? We need to wake everyone else up."
Gu Keke nodded, then suddenly thought of Jiang Zhiling, who was right next to her.
She lunged to her left, only to find that, without her noticing, the broken chair beneath her had been restored to its original position. Jiang Zhiling sat back down in the seat, head bowed, seemingly unresponsive.
"Jiang Zhiling?" Gu Keke gently patted the girl's face twice. "Jiang Zhiling, can you hear me?"
Liang Jun didn't waste any time and went to check on Jiang Chunhua's condition.
She looks like she's seriously injured.
Until the very last second before landing, Jiang Chunhua still hadn't mastered the correct way to ride.
One of her hands was entangled in the main steel wire, and the other hand was stuck in the connecting rope. Her head seemed to have hit something hard during the fall, and a huge bump swelled up. She was unconscious.
Liang Xun called out for a long time, but the other person still didn't open their eyes. With time running out, she had to temporarily put Jiang Chunhua aside and check on the others.
Fortunately, they all followed the staff's advice. Although they experienced similar adverse reactions to Leung Chung after the sudden fall, none of them suffered any vital injuries and they were still able to move normally.
After walking around the high-altitude swing once, Leung Yung met the yellow-clad staff member who had been waiting nearby.
His huge yellow baseball cap was nowhere to be found. A grotesque, bald head was now glaringly obvious in Liang Jun's eyes.
She looked away from the black and red patches and calmly asked, "Why did we land suddenly?"
Without the cover of a hat, the staff member in the yellow shirt looked rather fierce, yet he maintained a smile while speaking, making the combination of his face extremely bizarre and unsettling.
He lowered his head slightly, and the huge red scar stared directly into Liang Jun's eyes.
"Because new players are coming," the staff member chuckled. "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect your trial time to be so short..."
He hasn't gotten to the point yet.
Ignoring the other person's sarcastic tone, Liang Xun pressed on, "How did you know there were new players?"
"Because I called a new colleague to replace me~"
The staff member in yellow stopped smiling, and the pretense vanished instantly.
His eyes turned fierce, and he gradually distanced himself from Liang Jun. "I've said it before, you're very smart; but sometimes, being too smart isn't a good thing..."
Like a demonic whisper from the depths of a nightmare, Liang Jun frowned, not having had time to carefully examine the specific meaning of the other party's words, when the yellow-clad staff member instantly changed his expression again.
He rubbed his hands together, smiled politely, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to greet our new distinguished guests. My colleagues will be in charge of entertaining you from now on. I hope you all have a wonderful time!"
He pushed open the gate and turned to leave, replaced by a young girl in a green work uniform.
The little girl looked timid, her hands always crossed behind her back, her round face full of collagen—she was probably the youngest NPC they had seen in this instance.
But she just stood there in front of Liang Xuan, hesitating for a moment without saying a word.
Liang Jun thought that perhaps the players had not yet gathered enough to meet the conditions for the NPC to issue commands.
So she called out to someone not far away, "Everyone, come quick!"
Having recovered, everyone was still resting on the swing seats. Upon hearing Liang Xun's call, they all spontaneously gathered at the gate.
Jiang Chunhua remained unconscious. Tang Cailei found it troublesome, but couldn't abandon her, so he could only have Shao Feng carry Jiang Chunhua on his back and see how things went.
Ten players of varying heights lined up in front of her. The girl in green glanced at them from head to toe before speaking softly.
"Hello, I'm the staff member who's temporarily filling in."
As she spoke, she pulled her hand out from behind her back.
What she was holding was the yellow baseball cap that the yellow-clad staff member had thrown out earlier.
"Congratulations on successfully experiencing the high-altitude swing activity."
The girl in green spoke in a voice barely audible, "Before you all leave the site, I need to give you some souvenirs related to this project."
At this point, the girl in green threw the incongruous hat she was holding to the ground and reached into the pockets of her work clothes.
A wristband woven from gold thread appeared before everyone's eyes.
The wristband was only about two fingers wide, with fine, golden threads woven regularly on it, creating beautiful ripples of light when the sunlight shone through.
Gu Keke felt a little dizzy, so she shook her head next to Liang Xuan.
"Sister, was that made of swing ropes?"
Liang Yan felt the same way.
The girl in green took a few more steps forward and held the wristband in her hand.
"These are your souvenirs from this trip. Which player would you like to give them to?"
Old Ren instinctively reached out to take it, but Luo Chuange slapped his hand away.
Wang Jianping also looked at Liang Jun, "Captain."
Liang Jun then looked at Tang Cailei.
Still unconscious, Jiang Chunhua was unable to make any decisions. In the strictly hierarchical team, the young Shao Feng and Jiang Zhiling had no power to make any choices.
Tang Cailei glanced at Liang Xun, whose lips still bore traces of blood, and snorted, "This time, you can take it first."
"good."
Liang Jun then took the gold bracelet from the green-clad maid.
It was actually heavier than it appeared to the naked eye. The moment the cool metal touched Liang Xun's warm skin, her system beeped—
[Current progress: Complete experience of all rides (the last one must be the Ferris wheel) 2/7...]
[Successfully surviving by following the rules will allow you to clear the level. Keep up the good work!]
If the system task can be triggered, it means that there is nothing wrong with the items you have.
The weight in Liang Jun's heart finally lifted. She passed the gold bracelet around to those around her, and after everyone had had a turn, Jiang Zhiling finally handed it back to her.
Liang Xun took a small step back and snapped her fingers behind Qi Zhixia.
Qi Zhixia, sitting in her wheelchair, received the signal from Liang Jun. She took the warm gold wristband and gently placed it on her hand.
"You can wear it on your wrist, remember to fasten it tightly," Liang Jun reminded her.
Qi Zhixia did as instructed, and the gold silk bracelet fit her wrist perfectly.
Seeing that the handover ceremony of the souvenirs had ended, the girl in green seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and her shoulders slumped, her voice sounding brighter than before.
"Now, everyone, follow me. I'll take you away from here."
Without much thought, everyone followed the girl in green in a large group.
The excitement of leaving this place of trouble was indescribable, and everyone's emotions were running high. On the way from the gate to the exit, one could even hear whispers about the thrilling fall they had just experienced.
The air was filled with the scent of joy.
Before long, the girl in green stopped in front of a brand new gate.
"This is the exit of the high-altitude swing. After you exit from here, you can continue to experience other attractions in our amusement park."
When she smiles, her lower eyelids do not have any curve.
Have a great time, everyone!
Gu Keke was as happy as a child. She excitedly thanked the girl in green and then prepared to push open the one-way gate.
Liang Jun followed behind Gu Keke. Just as they were about to line up to go through the entrance and exit, she inadvertently glanced at the green-clad girl's chest.
It was deserted.
There was no familiar metal badge.
