As a theme park, its location is definitely not good - next to it is a deserted suburb with only weeds and dead trees. In addition, the commercial and residential areas that should be the most important in an area were aborted during the development. At present, perhaps the only popular place in the area is this theme park.
Due to various reasons, the theme park has few visitors now. In the bleak autumn wind, the blood-stained flyers were blown into the sky by the wind, and then fell again, like a line of lonely wild geese wandering in the air, telling the desolation and depression of this land.
However, the situation today is a little different.
A white hand grabbed the flying flyer in the air, twisted it into a ball and tossed it in the hand: "Interesting."
Starscream was wearing a jacket that was obviously too big for him and holding a lollipop in his mouth. He tore the flyer in his hand into pieces with just a little force. "It looks like there are not many people coming here to play. We're lucky. At least we don't have to queue."
"You're right, aren't you, bro?"
As she said that, she threw the flyer casually into Bai Ling's scarf.
Bai Ling silently reached out his hand, swept all the paper scraps out of the scarf, and then sorted them into the trash can that was about to overflow.
“Don’t make trouble,” he said, “We are here to have fun, not to cause trouble for the local employees.”
Oh.
Upon hearing this, Red Spider rolled his eyes at Bai Ling imperceptibly.
Then she waved her sleeves, which were more than half of her sleeves, and pointed at the road sign next to her casually: "Here, buy your ticket first."
After saying this, she took the lead and stood in front of the ticket window: "Hello, is anyone there? Two adult tickets!"
Her voice was loud, and it was particularly harsh in this almost lifeless park. It was like the "hissing" sound of bones rubbing against each other, with an uncomfortable and eerie chill.
After Starscream shouted several times, no one responded.
The entire huge theme park is like a cold and silent forbidden place for the living. Any sound and popularity will be blown to pieces until everything is shadowed... and completely buried.
About three seconds later.
A man slowly climbed out from the window.
It’s real “climbing”.
The man's figure was like a snake, constantly moving forward on the ground, stretching his body bit by bit. His dark clothes rubbed against the ground, just like a dark spotted python sticking to the grass, making a rustling sound.
Amidst a teeth-grinding rustling sound, a man in black "crawled" to the windowsill, then pressed himself against the glass, with his facial features squeezed into a distorted ball.
"Hello," the man said slowly, "Do you want to buy tickets? One ticket for adults, fifty, and children half price."
Looking at the person in front of him, Red Spider subconsciously took half a step back.
"Wow, brother, this is so scary," her voice became sharp, and her expression seemed a little scared, "How about we not play in this place anymore?"
Bering glanced at her.
Although he said he was afraid, there was no fear in Starscream's eyes, instead there was a hint of excitement.
He patted Red Spider's head and said, "It's okay. This is exciting. It's a rare trip to Yanzhou. Wouldn't it be a loss if we don't experience the local special programs? Besides, we're already here and have spent a lot of money on the fare."
Having said that, he withdrew his hand without leaving a trace.
He was sure that if he had pulled his hand back half a second later, Starscream would have stabbed his arm hard with the spider legs on its back.
After hearing Bai Ling's voice, the ticket seller moved closer to the glass window: "Yes, our facilities here are very perfect and will definitely give you a good experience."
Hearing his drawn-out voice, Starscream looked away with disgust.
If it weren't for what Bai Ling had said to her before, Red Spider would probably have smashed the glass in front of him with one punch, pulled the guy out, and crushed his tongue.
Before arriving at the theme park, Bering bought some clothes for Starscream.
It’s not that her clothes were too dirty, old or ugly, it’s just that her previous clothes didn’t look like those of a junior high school student who was not yet an adult.
"The guys in the theme park are well hidden and relatively cautious."
Leaning against the fitting room, Bai Ling said, "Thanks to the recent crazy suppression by the Countermeasures Bureau, those monsters will probably flee at the slightest sign of trouble. So if you rashly show any unusual behavior, that guy will probably run away."
While changing his clothes, Red Spider frowned: "So what you mean is that I still need to pretend to be a weak chicken?"
Bai Ling crossed his arms: "Almost."
"We're lucky. The guy we encountered this time was neither too big nor too small. If it's too small, it won't even take a punch from you. If it's too big, it might cause a big commotion." He waved his hand. "It's very hard to find a guy like this one who can warm up without attracting attention, and he's not Miss Chris's subordinate. If you miss it, it's probably gone forever."
"Besides," Bai Ling said sideways, "this time the theme park will probably have some surprises."
Having said this, he smiled meaningfully.
Hearing his words, Starscream pulled open the curtain of the fitting room: "You looked at the future again, right?"
She smacked her lips. "So I need to stay calm and not act rashly? Damn it, then why don't we just let him go and try other means?"
She cursed, which was completely different from the style of clothing Starscream was currently wearing.
At this moment, she was wearing a long white lace dress, with blue padding on both shoulders and a small bow on her chest. The lack of excessive decoration made the dress look quite plain, but the material of the lining faintly revealed silently showed its exquisiteness.
Such clothes should be for a princess in a splendid dress, low-key and restrained on the outside. However, the moment the dance music starts, the princess will step into the center of the dance floor with a graceful arc, unfolding the luxurious lining while spinning, letting the white outer dress fall like a robe, flying up and down with the rhythmic movement.
But it was obvious that Red Spider did not have that kind of refined or pretentious nobility.
She just felt that this thing was too tight. If she hadn't temporarily changed her height and waist circumference, she might not be able to put it on.
But Red Spider quite likes this style.
Otherwise, she would not have ignored the housekeeper style of "plain long skirt with black trim" suggested by Bering, and chose this exquisite girlish style that was completely different from her own temperament.
After looking him up and down, Bai Ling clapped his hands and said, "It is just as I expected. It is quite unique."
Ugly in a unique way.
Red Spider seemed to understand what Bai Ling meant and rolled his eyes at him: "What do you care about me?"
"If you were like me, with that person locking you up every day and telling you what to do with your life, and you finally waited for that person to disappear, and just killed a few stronger monsters and humans, you were trapped in prison for decades by that inexplicable guy again, then your aesthetics and taste would probably remain in the last century like mine."
Pulling the hem of her skirt, Starscream said unhappily, "Besides, this is not what I want to wear. The core in my brain started buzzing like a helicopter after seeing this dress, insisting that I wear this thing."
Although the core of Starscream is still largely herself, it also contains parts of other people.
For example, the slender blonde Red Spider who had faced Bai Ling in Yanxia Mountain had a very different personality from the current Red Spider. This was because the core that constituted her was different, and the impact on her was also different.
However, according to practice, the core of Li Jingwen's father should have appeared around this time.
Bai Ling stroked his chin: "But now that I have greatly changed the history of Red Spider, the Red Spider that was supposed to be still in the island country has been pulled to China by me, so can Li Jingwen's father still become her core?"
I don’t know, but I guess the possibility is not very high.
Of course, it's not certain. After all, no one can predict the time. Even Bai Ling couldn't be sure that Li Jingwen's father would not follow the same path as before.
But those are already small matters.
After taking a look at Red Spider, Bai Ling groaned, "Do you want to buy it?"
As he spoke, he lifted the bag on his body.
In addition to buying things for Starscream, Bering of course also bought some for himself.
The first thing he did was to change his black windbreaker. The new windbreaker was no different from the original one. The only difference might be... there were five more pockets.
In addition, he also changed his red scarf.
Because he had worn it for a long time, the red scarf around his neck had almost faded from its original deep red to the current pinkish red. It looked quite funny when worn around Bering's neck.
Out of habit, Bai Ling thinks it is better not to wear overly pink tones on himself.
And Red Spider glanced at the mirror, as if he was examining himself in it.
"Let's buy it," she decided. "It's not my money anyway."
It's not my money either.
Bai Ling casually took out the card that the witch threw to them, and then walked slowly to the counter next to them.
"Swipe the card," he said.
This understatement won unanimous praise from the waiters in the store.
They probably seldom see this kind of customers who carry large and small bags but don't even check the prices. Such high-quality suckers... VIPs, they have only seen them in TV dramas and novels in the past.
And now, they have become one of the background boards of this "situation drama"!
And there are commissions!
Is there anything better than getting paid for having fun?! Nothing!
So during the remaining period of time, Bering and Red Spider received the most thoughtful service from these waiters.
The two of them heard a lot of flattering words like "Your sister is so cute", "You look so young", and "How come your skin is so well maintained" during this period.
In response, Bering and Starscream both acted calm and composed.
Bai Ling, needless to say, has already gotten rid of this low-level material desire and is heading towards a higher level of life. As for Red Spider...
She might be thinking seriously about who would scream more beautifully when these guys are so talkative.
Time goes back to the present.
After buying two tickets, Bering and Red Spider slowly entered the theme park under the gaze of the guy in black.
"What's unusual about this park?" Starscream put on a coat over her white pleated skirt. "I don't think you have to come to this place when you are in such trouble. You don't want to vent your anger as you said before."
Hearing this, Bai Ling smiled but did not answer.
"It's very interesting stuff," he said with a chuckle, "to some extent, it's what we were looking for before."
"Anyway, just act like a normal person now. If you're too calm, the guy who's watching might feel something's wrong. If he runs away, that would be really troublesome."
As he spoke, Bering patted Starscream's head and said, "So, where are you going to go first?"
Starscream's spider leg poked Bering's elbow silently.
Pointing to the facility in the distance, Starscream smacked his lips, "That one."
"To be honest, I'm quite curious about your weapons," Starscream pulled at his coat, "Your technology tree is just like a cockroach... Oh, I'm not scolding you. I just want to say that hundreds of years ago you were still playing with swords, and hundreds of years later you were able to blow up ordinary 'disasters' to death."
She said nonchalantly, "I remember when Wu Dayou was here, I was shot at by your weapons for several days. Now I have to shoot at you too."
The place she was pointing to was an ordinary-looking shooting range.
The place was not big, consisting of several big red sheds. Under the sheds were several long tables, on which and beside them were some ridiculous-looking hot weapons.
There are sniper rifles, Gatling guns, and legendary pistols powerful enough to knock down an elephant.
On the side of this shooting range, facing the muzzle, is the place where targets were originally placed.
There were several terrified, struggling humans tied up! Glancing at the target at the shooting range, Bai Ling smiled.
"That's fine," he said, "but don't forget our agreement."
Hearing this, Red Spider waved his hands and said, "I know, I know. I won't kill anyone."
She shook her head gently, her long black hair flowing like a waterfall. "After all, the purpose of coming here this time is very clear. Whoever dares to set his sights on me will be killed. As for the others? I'm not that bored."
As he said this, Starscream's steps became slower and slower.
At the same time, her figure became increasingly rare.
Like a phantom, it quickly disappeared behind Bai Ling.
And Bai Ling stood right in front of her.
"Should we save people first, or find people first?"
Bai Ling stroked his chin. "It is true that I can find the guy hiding behind the scenes as quickly as possible, but I am afraid that he will run away as soon as I appear in a strange place. Tsk, the cautious mentality is exactly the same as described in the diary."
As he spoke, Bai Ling stroked the black ring on his hand: "But it's normal. After all, after that guy got the 'Nameless Mist', he was able to rank on par with those 'Disaster' levels just by being 'Danger' level...'Paradise'."
Bai Ling still remembers that before he got the "Nameless Mist", he had seen the "future" of this ring in his diary.
In that future, whoever gets it will be as dangerous as a disaster simply by virtue of its power.
Although this is inseparable from that guy's ability, Bai Ling still feels that that guy is probably quite special.
After all, how it found this ring and the origin of this ring that has been helping Bering until now made Bering very, very curious.
This is also why Bering found this place very "interesting".
He took someone else's things in advance, and then came back to cause trouble for the original owner...
Isn’t it funny? As a prophet, Bering thought this was very interesting.
"But that guy is too cautious," Bai Ling glanced at the camera in the distance and said helplessly, "As long as I am out of the camera for three seconds, that guy will immediately slip away through the tunnel..."
Even if Bai Ling is Qi Guang, it is impossible for him to catch the "Paradise" in such a large place in just three seconds! Why would the "Paradise Clown" be so cowardly as to escape and leave immediately in just three seconds after the others disappeared? !
After thinking about it, Bai Ling felt that it was probably his fault.
Perhaps it was because he had pushed the Countermeasures Bureau forward too quickly, which resulted in the original living space of the alien species being completely squeezed, and the "danger" of the "Paradise Clown" was being hunted crazily...
After all, “ordinary” things can be handled by a few civilians, and “disasters” are beyond the control of ordinary people. Doesn’t that mean that these “dangerous” middle-class people are being madly targeted by those guys in the union?
Thinking of this, Bai Ling couldn't help but sighed: "There's nothing I can do."
Just keep up with the trend.
Thinking of this, Bai Ling raised his head and looked around blankly.
"Qiluo?" he shouted. "Qiluo? Where are you?"
After walking a few steps forward, Bai Ling muttered to himself in a worried tone, "Strange, how come Qiluo disappeared after a gust of wind?"
"Or is this theme park...really weird?!"
The words fell.
A gust of cold wind blew by, blowing up Bai Ling's scarf, as if a trace of blood was spilled tragically.
Bai Ling tightened his clothes and muttered, "There seems to be something wrong with this place..."
"Anyway, let's see if there are any other people here first, right?"
Thinking of this, Bai Ling "subconsciously" looked up and saw the sign above his head.
"The tourist area..." He looked into the distance, "It's in that direction...right?"
In an uncertain ending.
The fog spread quietly.
Unlike the gray fog, this time the mist was pure white. Just like the morning mist, it gradually covered Bai Ling's body...
