Chapter 406 God's Game: KartRider 5
Yu Xunge's expression was solemn. 73% gasoline is enough for now.
But if the gas station entrance is hidden inside a glowing box, it means she doesn't know when she'll be able to enter the gas station again.
She can skip buying gasoline this round, but just to be safe, she needs to save up enough Karting Coins so that when she finds a gas station next time, she can buy enough gasoline and some necessary parts while the gas station is still in the safe zone.
Karting repairs are also essential, because even if she fully heals herself after her karting is attacked, the damage to the karting doesn't disappear.
Yu Xunge released the brake, and the go-kart started moving again. She asked Tu Lan to drive and find the exit of the parking lot first, while she opened the leaderboard to see which players were online this time.
This game is mandatory, but she needs to be prepared to leave early.
When she found the exit and returned to the vicinity of the game monument, there were only 17 seconds left on the countdown above the monument.
The moment time reset to zero, the words "[Wine and Song]" disappeared from her go-kart's visual data, and she and her go-kart were temporarily unlinked.
At the same moment, the stone tablet exploded with a loud bang, and a firework burst upwards from the stone tablet, shooting into the sky in the blink of an eye.
Yu Xunge and Tu Lan stared at the firework, their heads involuntarily tilting upwards to follow its trajectory, watching it fly straight towards them at an extremely fast speed.
Yu Xunge didn't dodge. Fireworks exploded above her head, transforming into words formed by a line of silver light mist: "[I once walked down the aisle with my sister-in-law's younger sister]".
Without a doubt, just like the game's stone tablet, everyone can understand this sentence. At the end of the sentence, there is a countdown, and there are only 29 seconds left.
Yu Xunge: "………………"
This statement, while seemingly wrong, also feels somewhat correct... but it doesn't quite feel right either.
They did go in... but!
Yu Xunge looked up and saw that all the players were looking at her with strange expressions. To her surprise, no player tried to stop her in a go-kart. But that didn't stop her from immediately turning on her left turn signal and nodding frantically.
Literally speaking, this statement is not problematic.
The players' expressions looked even stranger. Just a moment ago they were wary, apprehensive, and uncertain, but now they also seemed to be seeing a pervert.
Yu Xunge breathed a sigh of relief. She was also surprised that these players didn't crash into her car. She didn't know if these players were afraid of her [Ancient Curse] or afraid that she would steal their divinely bestowed talent skills like she had stolen [Ancient Curse].
However, Yu Xunge soon found out the answer—a go-kart slowly drove up and stopped next to her.
This was a very proactive way of showing that she was harmless. Yu Xunge didn't dodge. She frowned and looked over, and the next second she froze on the spot.
Tulan turned her head and couldn't help but exclaim "Oh!"
The nearly 1.9-meter-tall Oak Owl sat pitifully on a mini go-kart, its long legs having nowhere to go. With its orange-red wings spread behind it, the Oak Owl was almost several times larger than the go-kart, as if an adult was playing with a children's toy car.
This was the first time Yu Xunge had seen Maple Syrup since leaving the tower, and she was momentarily dazed.
Compared to the maple syrup in the tower, the current maple syrup exudes a more imposing aura of authority, with a more flamboyant demeanor and a sharper, more aggressive presence. This is the Tyrant Emperor, not maple syrup.
But the next second, when Maple Sugar smiled at her, Yu Xunge felt that she seemed no different from when they used to eat and chat together in the wooden house by the forest.
Maple Syrup placed one hand on Yu Xunge's leg that was pressing the accelerator, patted Yu Xunge's knee, making a loud thud on her kneecap. With each pat, Yu Xunge's health dropped by 0.1%.
Maple Syrup was so shocked by the "absurd story" that her smile twisted for a moment. If she wasn't sure after the first pat, she was certain after the third pat. This was an "absurd story"!
Her gaze towards Yu Xunge was tinged with shock and apprehension, but her smile remained unchanged as she asked, "Is that so? When did you and Feng Ran go to the Bird's Nest in Four Seasons City? Why didn't you invite me to witness it?"
Yu Xunge said dryly, "...No, we just went in for a stroll, nothing happened, we're completely innocent."
Maple Syrup naturally knew this. She glanced at the orange-red wings behind Yu Xunge, smiled, and said nothing more, only gently patting Yu Xunge twice more.
Yu Xunge looked at his remaining 99% health and dared not speak.
The game ended just as the two were talking.
A coin-like shadow silently appeared at the center button on the steering wheel, presumably popping out when pressed, just like the gasoline can inside.
Yu Xunge didn't rush to withdraw the coins; she planned to save them and buy gasoline at the next gas station during the safe zone.
Karting coins appeared silently, and the expressions of all the players present did not change, but at least half of the players had already begun to look for players with lower combat power and quietly moved closer to them.
A battle is about to break out.
The next round of the game has begun!
The moment the fireworks went off, the parking lot instantly transformed into a bumper car playground.
This time, the fireworks landed right above Maple Syrup's head—[Yes, I admit it, I deceived her sister-in-law's feelings.]
Two arrows appeared below the two "she" characters, pointing directly to Yu Xunge, who was being touched on the leg by Maple Sugar at that moment.
All the players present were busy. Players with high combat power surrounded and trapped players with low combat power and destroyed their go-karts. Players with low combat power would drive to escape while also finding time to work.
But at that moment, all the players simultaneously took a quick glance at the Ze Lan maple syrup, and were truly amazed; they never expected this...
Yu Xunge, who was temporarily spared from the battle because her car was parked next to Maple Syrup: "..."
Was it a lie? Probably! But it also feels like a two-way street, with the man surnamed Su seemingly doing it willingly…
Maple Syrup also saw the information-packed message above her head, and her smile froze instantly.
From that day on, the cheerful and outgoing Emperor became introverted.
Yu Xunge had already seen many players park their cars at the edge of the battle zone and start frantically clicking on something in the void...
She quietly opened the world battlefield chat channel, and sure enough, she had already seen the first juicy gossip.
"Oh my god, that woman who stole the ancient curse from the Winter Shark, Zaijiu Xunge, her sister-in-law, was deceived in love by Zelan Maple Syrup!"
"Really?!"
"Is it real or fake?"
"—Ze Lan Feng Tang, don't interrupt. Didn't she say she was a mother who carried wine and sang songs?"
"Ke Zai Jiu Xun Ge and Ze Lan Feng Tang's daughter got married. She admitted it herself while playing the game, and the game system also verified it. This news is true."
"By the Beast God, what kind of family is this?"
"Is Zelan Mist Blade still around? Did you know about this?"
"I don't know them."
"—Liar! You two teamed up with Ze Lan Maple Syrup to beat me up last time! Ze Lan Mist Blade, aren't you that sister-in-law?!"
"It is possible."
"...Maple Syrup, can you shut up? Don't drag me into this."
"You call each other so intimately, and you still say there's nothing going on between you two."
