Chapter 166 Giant Amusement Park
Qiao Song has always loved using electric saws. She likes it both for its deterrent effect and practicality, but that is only when the individual differences are not big.
At this time, the speed at which the electric saw cut the transparent ball could no longer keep up with the speed at which the mechanical claw descended.
Giving up the idea of cutting the ball for the time being, before the new mechanical claw came down, Qiao Song once again pushed hard to the side, causing the ball that was trapping him to roll to the side twice more.
"Ah? What a pity. He dodged it again."
Two faces, one big and one small, were stuck to the outside of the claw machine. To Qiao Song at that moment, they looked like two human-head balloons on a skyscraper, big and weird.
Qiao Song even suspected that he might now be only as big as a child's palm.
The child who was standing on tiptoe to observe Qiao Song wrinkled his nose and started to make a scene again: "Mom, do you know how to play? You've done it five or six times already!"
The giantess was also a little embarrassed: "Who knew she was so flexible? It doesn't matter. Mommy recharged a hundred game coins, enough to catch her twenty more times in a row."
Qiao Song quickly captured the key words, twenty times.
In addition to the extra coin insertion at the beginning and the few pulls just now, she still needs to dodge fourteen times continuously.
The space for the claw machine is not very big, so there will always be times when you don’t have enough energy or can’t react in time.
It's not enough to just run, you have to find a way to hide or run away.
As long as she is still in this machine, even if she gets rid of the ball shell, she will still be watched by the two bosses and will be in danger of being caught at any time.
She needed to create opportunities to get off the machine.
Qiao Song soon realized that there were about three layers of small balls inside the machine, and the wall facing the customers who were grabbing the dolls was filled with more of the same small balls, all of which were blocked by horizontal bars but not completely stuck.
If you use a mechanical claw, you can catch it.
And inside each ball, there is a little man about the same size as Qiao Song.
At this height...
Qiao Song took out the electric saw again, but this time he didn't use it to completely cut the transparent sphere, but only made a cut.
She thought of a solution, but it required a lot of preparation.
After that, every time the mechanical claw would fall, Qiao Song would predict it in advance to save energy, and most of the time he would just move to the side a little to barely avoid the claw.
While avoiding being caught, Qiao Song turned his back to the two giants and quickly punched holes in the transparent ball.
This way of teasing others made the giant very angry.
"Damn it, why is she hiding all the time!" Faced with the claw machine, the giant child was not tall enough and had to stand on tiptoe to barely reach the handle. Otherwise, he would have probably slapped his mother's hand away and started on his own.
The giantess was kind to her son at first, but after being blindly commanded several times, she gradually became impatient: "Don't make trouble, I'll do it soon. These little things usually don't have good physical strength."
Of course Qiao Song knew that she could not outlast the other party, so she was also actively saving her energy. After silently counting the number of times the clamp fell, she quietly took something out of her pocket and stuffed it into her mouth.
When the mechanical claw in the sky fell again one time, Qiao Song rolled over, and the transparent ball rolled several times in the claw machine. With quick, accurate and clear aim, he knocked down several small balls stacked high up.
The hanging rod that fixed the small ball on the back panel of the machine immediately tilted down.
For a moment, the claw machine seemed to be shaking before some lottery draw, and a large number of balls collided and fell together.
The giantess frowned and looked closely at the claw machine: "Hey, where did it go? There are so many balls at once. If we can't find them..."
Before she had finished, the little boy started shouting, "I don't want anything else, I want this one!"
"I'll listen to you, but this little girl is too noisy. If we catch her and bring her back later, we have to tear her legs off first, otherwise she'll probably run away before we even bring her home, understand?"
The child was lying outside the transparent machine, nodding anxiously, "Oh, I see. Dad bought me a cage. Mom, I saw it! She's there!"
The child ran around the claw machine several times and finally found Qiao Song in a corner where several dolls were piled together.
"Hurry up, mom, the ball she's wearing is about to break!"
The female giant also noticed this and immediately started looking for an angle to grab the doll.
Guan Qiaosong's ball is now in a very tricky position. It is just pressed down by the new balls that have fallen down. It is also stuck in the corner and cannot be found without careful observation.
The little kid was not tall enough and could only barely see half of Qiao Song’s body. However, at this moment, the female giant awkwardly discovered that her chance of grabbing the doll had just run out.
"Baby, keep an eye on her. Mommy will throw in a few more game coins."
The mechanical claw stopped in mid-air and rested for about a minute. During this time, the mother and son stared at the corner and did not notice that when the claw machine started working again, there was a strange creaking sound mixed in with the eerie music.
This time, the "Qiao Song" doll in the transparent ball struggled much less and could only make some very stiff movements to dodge.
This made the two giants who captured her more confident.
The giantess wasted two turns, moved away two blocking balls, and soon revealed her target.
I don’t know if the “Qiao Song” doll has run out of energy. This time, it just symbolically hammered the transparent shell of the ball and didn’t jump up to struggle to avoid the claws.
Amid the little boy's cheers, the mechanical claw fell this time and finally grabbed the ball firmly.
If the giants had better eyesight, they would be able to see the doll's facial expression through the transparent shell of the ball and discover some clues.
This is not a real human being, but just a plastic doll that looks exactly like Qiao Song.
As for Qiao Song himself, he had already escaped from the sphere when the small balls collided with each other, and quickly hid near the exit.
The moment the claw of the claw machine moved and the built-in music started playing, the giant mother and son's eyes were fixed on the claw and the ball.
Qiao Song took the opportunity to jump down from the gap in the high claw machine.
After grabbing the ball, the claws tightened and then moved from the diagonal line she had specially chosen, which was farthest from the exit, for about ten seconds.
Before that, Qiao Song used the cover of music to use an electric saw to clamp the wall and quickly fall down.
There were still some traces of colorful mushrooms on her clothes.
This mushroom can extract the memory of the person being attacked and combine it with the puppet mushroom to create a fake puppet.
Using this method, Qiao Song changed the doll in a transparent ball into his own appearance. Although he couldn't create an NPC that could move freely like the fake princess before, he could deceive people for a while.
The children waited happily for their gifts to move to the exit.
While the mother and son were focusing their attention upwards, Qiao Song slid down the wall to the bottom, then decisively pushed open the baffle outside the claw machine and jumped down through the gap.
When she slid into the bottom of the claw machine, the ball above her head fell into the reward exit.
She successfully avoided the crouching giant mother and son.
After finding a hiding place, Qiao Song looked out from the bottom of the claw machine and saw the huge shoes of the mother and son.
"Baby, do you like this gift?"
"I like it! But mom, why is she so listless? She's not as fun as before."
"Just go back and put it in a cage and raise it. It cost a lot of money to catch the doll, don't let it die all of a sudden."
The mother and son left while chatting and laughing.
Qiao Song hid there for a while, and finally saw the two giants completely leave the claw machine range and go to other places.
At this time, the system prompts that it is online.
[Ding——Congratulations to the player for completing the first small challenge, successfully escaping from the claw machine, and having the opportunity to move freely!
Warm reminder, be careful of these giants in the Giant Amusement Park. These small and cute human players are very fashionable toy figures in the Land of Giants! 】
[Current number of escapees 1/10]
Giant Amusement Park doesn't sound like a place suitable for players to survive.
Since she landed in the claw machine, it means that the situation of others is similar. However, the number of people who escaped is only 1/10, which means the situation is not optimistic. So far, she is the only one who escaped.
The clearance requirements clearly state that all personnel must be present.
It seems that in addition to escaping, players also have to find ways to rescue their companions trapped in various areas, and at the same time find the game console.
Thinking of this, Qiao Song took out the jade Buddha pendant that the short and fat man, the jade carver, had given him.
Hold the jade in the palm of your hand and apply a little force. The green plate will begin to glow and flash quickly.
At the same time, Qiao Song saw green light flashing simultaneously in all directions throughout the entire park, as if it directly penetrated various buildings and objects, like a map projected into her mind.
After three seconds, the light disappeared, and Qiao Song also remembered what he had just seen.
The small light spots are some far away and some near, and most of them are very scattered, which should represent the players' current accurate locations.
It seems that this jade pendant is more useful than she thought.
Qiao Song did not wear the necklace directly around her neck. Instead, after thinking for a moment, she took out a paper man from the toolbox. She shook her hands gently, and the little paper man came to life, connected with her thoughts, and became the object of her manipulation.
Qiao Song hung the things on the paper man.
One must always be on guard against others. She did not trust the jade carver. He came too conveniently and his skills were too extraordinary.
However, her other response to this has temporarily failed.
The walkie-talkie donated by the security guard kept showing no signal.
To be precise, the signal was bad. Qiao Song saw the light on the walkie-talkie flashing again and again, and finally turned red. He didn't know if it was because the distance was too far or for some other reason.
Unfortunately, it seems that I can’t communicate with other teammates for the time being.
But she had just memorized several locations, so she went to see who was closest to her.
Even if you escape from the claw machine, you are not really safe.
The entire park is filled with giants who can crush players with one slap.
Most of these tourists traveled as family units, and almost every family brought their children. Perhaps because the park had just opened in the morning, there were not many people in the park at present.
The claw machine is located very close to the park entrance, and you can see the giants there still queuing to enter the park.
If this continues, as soon as you come in, your attention will probably be attracted by the claw machine.
Judging from Qiao Song's current physique, those groups of giants are quite oppressive. These are not copy creatures that can be dealt with by chainsaws and hammers, and ordinary props can hardly fight these giants head-on.
The location of the claw machine in front of her was too dangerous. Fortunately, she ran fast, otherwise there would be more and more players behind her, making it more difficult to run.
Not only that, this amusement park is truly a place for giants to play, and everything is too big for players.
Qiao Song felt like a little mouse. After crawling out from under the claw machine, she went straight into the green belt and walked along the edge of the amusement park.
The disadvantage of being small is that it requires a lot of exercise. After running for a long time, when you look at the actual distance, you will find that you have only moved the distance that a giant would walk for a dozen steps.
Qiao Song saw a road sign near the flower bed and quickly realized that the area closest to him was the carousel area.
The text above is understandable, but the measurement units are useless. All I can tell from the prompt is that it takes the giant roughly 5 minutes to walk.
This 5 minutes generally refers to the walking speed of a giant. With her current size, it would probably take her more than half an hour or even an hour to travel.
This game map has a time limit, so you can't waste all your time rushing on the road.
Fortunately, Qiao Song had already found a ride.
A map of the park's vicinity shows staff members gathering around to get ready for work.
Their work schedule and corresponding work items are repeated loudly by the foreman during the morning meeting.
"Today is the first day of our theme park's anniversary celebration. We must serve the tourists well and ensure that every customer has a perfect theme park experience."
"Everyone should keep an eye on the area they are responsible for, especially the children. Don't let them destroy the amusement facilities, and try not to let them cry. We, the owner of the park, don't like the sound of children crying."
At this time, a staff member raised his hand.
The giant asked in distress, "There have been some elusive little people appearing in the park recently, and many giants outside are keeping them as pets. What should we do if the children ask us to catch these creatures?"
The man who looked like a foreman immediately frowned.
"The park is run by following the park's rules. If they want those weird little creatures as pets, they can do it themselves."
The staff member then nodded, indicating that he understood.
Qiao Song keenly realized that the tourists and staff in this park were not entirely in the same camp.
At least sometimes, the staff will not help tourists without limits.
You can then find an opportunity to test the waters and see if the staff has any ill will towards the players.
After eavesdropping on their morning meeting and learning which areas each doll was responsible for, Qiao Song quickly found his target.
A staff member dressed in a brown teddy bear costume was handing out colorful balloons in his hands while walking towards the carousel after the morning meeting.
Qiao Song had long noticed that these staff members dressed in doll costumes had a fixed route of action. Now that the park had just opened not long ago, the main task of the dolls was to distribute maps, balloons and other small toys.
This brown stuffed bear wearing a red hat is in charge of the carousel area.
Qiao Song seized the opportunity and when the doll was waving its hands to greet a giant child, he flashed directly under the other's feet, used the bear's huge body to block the view of other tourists, and quickly climbed up by grabbing the bear's fur.
If someone were to look from behind, it would really look like a mouse climbing onto a bear's back.
However, as Qiao Song crawled, he felt that the texture of the fur seemed a little bit wrong.
She was very sure that she had put on the doll costume herself while hiding in the green belt and watching the staff.
What's stuffed in here is really a big giant, not a real bear.
But this doll set also seems to have something weird about it.
Suppressing the speculation in her heart, she quickly crawled to the neck of the brown bear doll and hid in the pocket of his overalls without anyone noticing.
In this country of giants, the staff wearing teddy bear costumes still walk much faster than the shorter players.
With this ride, she can almost reach her destination directly.
Qiao Song also used a disguise mushroom to make himself as close to the bear as possible so as not to be too conspicuous and be discovered by other giants.
The Disguiser Mushroom allows the user to quickly adapt to the surrounding environment and transform into the most advantageous appearance for himself at the moment. Qiao Song had used it before and briefly transformed into a mermaid underwater.
Soon, the mushrooms took effect and Qiao Song felt that he had changed from his previous rag doll form to the appearance of a small teddy bear. Even if he was hiding in the other person's pocket, he could blend in with the hair of the same color.
She looked more like a doll before, but now she looks more like a toy.
At this time, the little girl who took the balloon from the bent brown bear staff suddenly said in surprise: "Wow, there is a little bear on the big bear's chest."
The teddy bear staff member tilted his head in confusion, and when he looked down at his overalls, he found nothing.
As soon as the little girl noticed him, Qiao Song quickly climbed down from the bear's back.
After she landed, the disguise mushroom state had not been lifted immediately, supporting her to run to the edge of the carousel.
The carousel lacked beautiful lighting decorations during the day and seemed a bit deserted, but there were many giant children preparing to climb onto the pony's back.
The only amusement facility nearby was a carousel, and Qiao Song was very sure that one of his teammates had landed in this area.
Compared to my own claw machine game, this one looks much bigger.
So, what about the players?
Judging from the previous system prompts, it seems that she is the only player who has successfully escaped.
The people in the carousel area are probably still stuck in the game.
When Qiao Song was quietly observing the carousel from the flower bed, the players inside actually knew through the positioning jade pendant that their companions should be approaching nearby.
But this unfortunate guy couldn't move or call for help now, so he could only use special methods to ask for help.
While Qiao Song was still observing the situation on the Trojan horse, he felt the walkie-talkie on his waist suddenly ring.
The security guard's intercom is very secure. No one else can hear the corresponding sound except the security guard himself. Qiao Song had inquired about all the functions of the intercom before coming in, so he proposed that each player should have one, which just happens to be able to verify each other with the engraver's jade pendant.
As soon as Qiao Song took out the walkie-talkie, he saw the green light on it.
The red light was clearly on before.
The young security guard said that if conditions permit, he can still have a conversation even if he does not hold the walkie-talkie in his hand.
Therefore, the previous situation was either due to the suppression of the copy or the distance was too far.
And now, are you satisfied with the distance compared to before?
Qiao Song picked up the intercom, and before he pressed the button, he heard an extremely familiar voice, and he was about to cry amid the crackling sound of electricity.
It was the little security guard who donated the walkie-talkie.
He was crying and it seemed as if there was a piece of cotton in his mouth, and his speech was a little unclear.
"Woo, can you hear me? Woo, is someone coming?"
Qiao Song sighed and said, "If you don't want to die, then explain the current situation briefly, otherwise I can't save you even if I want to."
The young security guard had never felt so safe from Qiao Song’s voice, and he made a very strange snorting sound.
It seemed that he also sharpened his hooves.
This time, his voice finally became clear, but it turned into an exaggerated cartoon mode.
"Big Boss, help me... I turned into a horse..."
The cartoon pony with a pinched throat said so.
horse?
On the double-decker gorgeous carousel, countless colorful ponies are flying up and down, spinning and playing to the music.
Qiao Song, whose height was barely as big as the head of the wooden horse, said:
The author has something to say:
Qiao Song: So why am I so small?
Good news: transportation may be available.
Bad news: The means of transportation is a teammate, and a Trojan horse that can’t run.
