Chapter 173 Giant Amusement Park
"I'll explore the way along the edge and will meet you before dark."
The call was quickly cut off. Jin Jiaqi cursed under her breath, not knowing what Bassen was up to.
Fortunately, this person still remembered her greatest responsibility and sent a message saying that she would keep an eye on her teammates at all times.
Jin Jiaqi clicked on the most recent location map of the park and suddenly saw several small green dots on it.
"They've actually reached the Ferris wheel. Looks like they're heading to the aquarium."
Jin Jiaqi bit her nails nervously.
She now has three things she must do. First, get the red coin, second, activate the skill replacement machine, and third, find a way to catch Tang Xiaoxiao.
Among these three things, getting red coins is the easiest.
As for the key prop card to activate the machine, she had already prepared it. She could just catch the person and bring him over to complete everything.
As for Tang Xiaoxiao...
Jin Jiaqi looked at the display on the map and saw five small green dots gathered together. They should be the group of people on the Ferris wheel.
Wait, that's the wrong number... why are there only 5?
Men wore Guanyin and women wore Buddha, and the number of men and women corresponded, but there was clearly an old lady who raised a cat over there, which means that among the people who came out of the trash can, a woman left.
Jin Jiaqi carefully checked the rest of the map and found that besides her and the jade carver, there was a man and a woman active outside.
I was hanging out with those players before and never saw the security guard. This man should be the security guard.
As for the little green dot representing women, Qiao Song?
Jin Jiaqi stared at the last small green dot of free activity on the map.
Doesn't this mean that Tang Xiaoxiao is now rushing over from the haunted house alone! ?
Jin Jiaqi made up her mind to choose the Ferris wheel, and when she saw the old woman who raised a cat in the level, her mood hit rock bottom.
Since it was Huo Siran on the Ferris wheel, it meant that Tang Xiaoxiao was in the haunted house.
But now, a golden opportunity is before her, and Tang Xiaoxiao has not yet met up with any teammates!
She might not be able to defeat the other party in a pure fight of force, but after being together for so long, I wonder how much Jin Jiaqi has prepared in advance for this plan.
Now is the best chance!
She decisively changed the direction of the trash can and circled it backwards.
Of course, Jin Jiaqi also heard the system's notification.
Although she didn't know what the strange pollution was, there was still some time before dark, so she was willing to take the risk!
After the system announcement, the entire park began to close at a speed visible to the naked eye. The giant tourists were dispersed bit by bit, and even the staff hurried their pace.
Without any worries about being blocked by native creatures, Jin Jiaqi's trash can almost flew down the road.
In fact, she had already sensed something unusual about the surrounding environment. Previous multiplayer dungeons would not have seen such strange environmental changes. Black ice crystals appeared in the bushes at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Jin Jiaqi opened the garbage bag and looked outside, and found that some buildings in the park were emitting blazing black flames.
The extreme low temperature is spreading from the direction of the flame.
Jin Jiaqi recalled Bassen's crazy talk before he hung up the phone. She obviously didn't know that much relevant information, and only a sense of uneasiness lingered in her heart.
"The raw materials of the Soul Factory are produced here. Isn't that the place where the ghosts of the truly dead are salvaged... Why would such a place appear in a dungeon game?"
Giant Amusement Park is just a small branch of Scream Game Hall, so it shouldn't cause too much noise.
Since there were no staff patrolling around and even the giant was nowhere to be seen, she simply plucked up her courage and, while speeding up the trash can, she had already hung the props on herself in advance.
She held a strange ball in her hand, which looked like the skin of a walnut, with grooves and covered with mechanical lines like the cerebral cortex.
That was the prop she had obtained with great difficulty in the Cyberworld.
【Knowledge and Wisdom·Foolish Ball】
[Any creature with a brain will gradually age as long as it thinks. When you look directly at this ball, the more knowledge you have, the more interference you will receive, until your thoughts are drained away and you become a puppet that can only think, or a computer that can breathe. Of course, there is one exception: please do not use it on objects that have no thinking ability, such as stones, as that would be a huge waste.]
Jin Jiaqi certainly knew that this thing was to be used on the heads of intelligent creatures.
The smarter the person you meet, the better the effect of using this ball.
During the days that Jin Jiaqi and Tang Xiaoxiao have been together, she has already figured out how to use the girl's skills. As long as she keeps in the habit of practicing questions and writes papers frequently, the Nine Subjects Encyclopedia and multiple attack tools can be unlocked simultaneously, and the upper limit is very high.
She passed the teacher's qualification exam, but gave up the path of becoming a teacher and went to Yiwu Mall to become the owner of a small wholesale store.
She was already very experienced in using the skill-stripping machine. Although she had not used it herself, she knew the unspoken rules of it. The prerequisite for grafting someone else's profession onto herself was to have the most basic proficiency.
A person who has never been a doctor will not be able to use the skills of a doctor proficiently even if he plunders the skills of a doctor.
But she is different. She is familiar with most of the knowledge in high school. Even if she is not very proficient in one or two subjects, she can make up for it by practicing questions.
Tang Xiaoxiao's skills will make up for her attack shortcomings.
And she is not a bad person. Didn’t she bring Tang Xiaoxiao to collect some suits in advance?
Tang Xiaoxiao's companions can help Tang Xiaoxiao unlock new skills even after the little girl becomes disabled.
But Jin Jiaqi has no companions. She has finally found a job that suits her very well. Only in this way can she continue to survive in this damn world.
Xiaoxiao, don't blame me.
In the flying trash can, Jin Jiaqi, with the ball in her hand, finally saw the corresponding green dot on the map at the corner ahead.
However, she had just raised the ball in her hand and hadn't made any move when she suddenly discovered that Tang Xiaoxiao was not alone.
"We are just worried that the transportation will not have time to pick us up."
Qiao Song had already heard the noise behind her, and she raised the hammer in her hand without fear.
Jin Jiaqi's mind went blank for a moment.
How come Qiao Song is here? Doesn’t the map show there is only a green dot here?
Could it be that Tang Xiaoxiao was out alone? Impossible, this route was clearly taken by someone who had just come out of a haunted house...
Click, a green test paper suddenly appeared in front of her.
Jin Jiaqi's right hand suddenly picked up a pen uncontrollably, and she began to answer the questions consciously.
At the same time, there is something called a wrong answer book next to it.
[A true top student must be able to not only answer questions but also set questions. If you complete the basic test and get too many questions wrong, you need to rewrite them three times in the top student's wrong question book.]
Mandatory skills! And this familiar style can only be used by one person.
As soon as Tang Xiaoxiao appeared from the side, Jin Jiaqi's shock doubled.
Something was wrong. There was something wrong with the map the jade carver gave her. Why did it clearly show one coordinate, but there were only two people here?
But Bassen has been a map merchant for so many years, it is impossible for him to make such a mistake. Otherwise, with that guy having more enemies than himself, he would have died countless times.
Moreover, Tang Xiaoxiao had never used this skill in front of her before! Otherwise, with Jin Jiaqi's personality, it is impossible that she would not prepare in advance.
What did Jin Jiaqi realize? Has Tang Xiaoxiao been on guard against her?
"Sister Qiao Song, I think I heard Jin Jiaqi mention this trash can. It's true that only she can control it."
"Is it so troublesome?"
Tang Xiaoxiao quickly came to the trash can: "But I remember that if the lid is removed, the invisible function will be lost. Then it should be able to be used as a pure mobile tool..."
Tang Xiaoxiao got closer to the trash can and had no time to observe it, when she suddenly turned around subconsciously to look in the direction of the wrong answer book.
"Sister Qiao Song! Back off!"
Jin Jiaqi, who once passed the high school teacher qualification exam, is the first person to have a 90% accuracy rate in the wrong question book control skill.
She quickly copied the only wrong fill-in-the-blank question three times, and soon flew up using the bamboo dragonfly.
"You guys are playing tricks on me. You guys have been playing tricks on me all along!"
She finally understood why Tang Xiaoxiao was willing to accompany her into the dungeon game, but always refused whenever she invited her to become a regular companion.
Had they already guessed her dark thoughts, her jealousy, her temptations, and her invitation to the Hongmen Banquet?
Then he confidently came to accept the invitation, looking at her like a clown trying to plot something.
"I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted as to start a 10-player team game... I should have started a competitive game! I'll make you all turn into coins after you fight to the death!!! Go to hell!!!"
A huge metal ball flew out first, and before hitting Tang Xiaoxiao, it hit Qiao Song first. Jin Jiaqi's hatred and jealousy towards Qiao Song almost reached its peak.
Why? She has been so good to Tang Xiaoxiao, but Tang Xiaoxiao is still helping this man to deceive her!
She wants to burst Qiao Song’s head and make him a fool forever!
In an instant, Qiao Song, who was hit by the strange metal ball, saw a large number of strange formulas and calculation problems in front of his eyes.
A large number of metallic numbers flowed through her eyes and poured into her brain like a river.
Before her eyes appeared the entire evolution of human civilization from its birth to its end, the history of mathematical culture, and even the development of theology.
Logically, she should be thinking about the universe, philosophy, and more profound things.
But these things, which were enough to make the human brain run at high speeds and burn out the chips like a computer, only made Qiao Song sneeze for no apparent reason.
The freezing cold river water suddenly appeared around her. Although it quickly disappeared, it was like a wave hitting the shore, making her a little wet.
"What the hell?"
She was talking about both the strange spherical prop and the sudden appearance of river water.
Jin Jiaqi, who was standing next to them, was fighting with Tang Xiaoxiao over several sets of plastic clothes rails and hangers, and even a washbasin.
The little girl was almost blood-thirsty, and she attacked with three books in turn. Jin Jiaqi was not going to show off, as she had only disposable items in her hands, so she didn't feel bad if they were broken, and just took them out from the shop to replace them.
But soon, a hammer hit her from behind and shattered the defensive suit she was using to protect herself.
Qiao Song knocked over the Russian doll-like ornament with a few hammer blows. Jin Jiaqi felt dizzy after being knocked over by her hammer, and soon a small hairpin on her head lit up.
【Mini Bandage Hair Clip】
[More practical, more convenient and faster than Band-Aid. ]
Jin Jiaqi was treated quickly, but before she could do anything else, Qiao Song covered her with a net bag. "We just need someone to do the experiment. Let's see if we can put a living person in the shrine or tool box."
It is not cost-effective to kill people directly, the person must be controlled, after all, Jin Jiaqi has an accomplice active.
The toolbox directly displays [The current skill points are insufficient to put this type of special creature in. Please increase the player's soul power before trying again]
Wow, there wasn’t such a reminder before. It seems that the toolbox can also be used to store people in the future?
Qiao Song didn't bother to open his box anymore, but took out another wooden shrine.
Jin Jiaqi in the net bag looked at the priceless cyber creation on the ground, which did not cause any harm to Qiao Song, with disbelief on her face.
"Impossible. This is the ultimate reward of the Cyber Instance. It is an item specially made by the main system based on the thinking ability of human players. No human can escape this control. Even a three-year-old child will fall into the confusion of a chick or a duck crossing a river. How can you escape... Why can you escape... Aren't you a college student? Didn't you go to school..."
Jin Jiaqi gradually became emotional, as if she had to get an answer: "Is it a fake diploma? You liar, did someone take the exam for you in school!?"
Why is this getting more and more outrageous?
Qiao Song tried to push him into the shrine again: "Are you a curious baby? You have so many questions. I got into the university based on my own ability, okay?"
[Ding - Friendly reminder, since there are enough mascots in your shrine and its ability has been improved, you can put in a certain amount of active creatures, but it will cause some damage to them. Do you want to put them in? ]
Qiao Song decisively chose yes and threw the crazy Jin Jiaqi in.
After dealing with the test subject, she and Tang Xiaoxiao jumped directly into the trash can, quickly completing the act of occupying the magpie's nest.
"Hurry up, it's getting darker."
Tang Xiaoxiao studied it for a while and directly removed the lid of the trash can. After tearing off the outer shell, she found something that looked like a car steering wheel near the footstool of the trash can.
Qiao Song knew the road, so he decisively took the steering wheel and headed towards the aquarium.
Tang Xiaoxiao remained silent. She knew there were some things she shouldn't ask Qiao Song.
But she also felt that something was a little strange. Although most of Jin Jiaqi's props were tattered, there were also quite a few valuable ones.
It’s fine that Sister Qiao Song was fine in the haunted house, but why didn’t that metal ball just now cause any harm?
"Sister Qiao Song, are you feeling dizzy now? Do you want me to open it?"
She was still a little worried. The props that Jin Jiaqi used to deal with Sister Qiao Song must be very advanced, otherwise his expression would not have collapsed like that later.
Qiao Song sniffed and said, "It's okay. I felt a little dizzy before, but now I just feel a little cold."
She exhaled, and as dusk fell in the park, she turned the trash can into a go-kart.
Tang Xiaoxiao didn't ask any more questions and reported the surrounding scene to her.
"Those black flames seem to be getting bigger and bigger, and have spread to many amusement facilities."
Judging from the direction, the fire was indeed burning from the haunted house.
Qiao Song hummed and stopped talking, concentrating on driving. However, Tang Xiaoxiao noticed something was wrong with her.
"Sister Qiao Song, are you a little cold?"
Tang Xiaoxiao felt that the color of Qiao Song's hand holding the trash can steering wheel was not right. There was a hint of purple in the white, and even a little white frost began to appear on Qiao Song's eyelashes.
"It's okay, we'll be there soon. You don't know the way, but I've looked at the map and know where the aquarium is."
As she spoke, the white air from her mouth quickly turned into ice crystals and fell down.
Tang Xiaoxiao suddenly realized the seriousness of the situation, her eyes widened: "Sister Qiao Song...you...?"
Qiao Song raised his finger to stop Tang Xiaoxiao, "Don't get too close to me, and don't touch me. Go straight into the aquarium and buy your tickets right away."
Tang Xiaoxiao looked down and felt that Qiao Song's hand seemed to be stuck to the steering wheel of the trash can, like a piece of ice, frozen into one.
Tang Xiaoxiao bit her cheeks and flipped over the outer wall of the trash can. In the increasingly dark amusement park, she finally saw the aquarium sign with blue lights in the distance.
The moment the system prompt sounded in her ear, she jumped directly to the counter and quickly swiped her card to get two aquarium tickets.
When the ticket was attached to Qiao Song, she and Tang Xiaoxiao disappeared instantly and appeared in a strange passage.
This is the underground sightseeing passage of the aquarium. There is water on both sides around it. Various beautiful little fish are swimming around. There is also a black figure in the distance, as if there is something big hiding in it.
Some colorful little fish were startled by their sudden appearance and swam away quickly, wagging their tails.
At this time, other people in the passage also noticed them.
"Xiao Xiao! You guys are here? Hey, why is the big guy in such a posture?"
It was the delivery guy who came directly to the aquarium after meeting up with Aunt Huo.
Several people bought tickets and came in early, preparing to discuss the game consoles after everyone gathered. This passage is where the players who bought tickets will appear after coming in.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Qiao Song came in, he sat on the ground, with his back against the glass passage, holding a strange steering wheel that was broken in his hand.
"Does anyone have a tool to raise body temperature? Or a torch or something like that will do!"
Just as Tang Xiaoxiao asked anxiously, someone took out a strange bird cage.
"Try this, Xiaoxiao, speak slowly, don't be anxious, the aquarium can deal with most of the negative situations that players encounter, Qiao Song will be fine."
Aunt Huo's gentle voice sounded, and Tang Xiaoxiao's hands were almost shaking when she said thank you. She put the round electric bird cage directly into Qiao Song's arms.
[A warm birdcage powered by love]
[This is a magical tool for southern cats to survive the winter! It looks like a bird cage from the outside, but it has two U-shaped heating rods inserted inside, which can emit a warm orange light like the sun.]
The faint orange light from the furnace seemed to have really worked. The speed at which ice crystals condensed on Qiao Song's body slowed down, but he still sat there stiffly like a sculpture without moving.
Aunt Huo suddenly said, "Everyone, please stay a little further away so as not to block the blue light coming from the surrounding waters."
Everyone then noticed that the faint blue color that had been emanating from the passage had suddenly become stronger, especially the small aquatic creatures, which seemed to have actively moved closer to the wall where Qiao Song was sitting.
Tang Xiaoxiao even saw a few small jellyfish sticking to the glass and gently tapping the glass behind Qiao Song with their tentacles.
Lou Keqing took Tang Xiaoxiao's hand and comforted the little girl with red eyes.
"It's okay. The aquarium is a safe base, and it can even proactively clean up the pollution suffered by the players."
Tang Xiaoxiao seemed to just remember that when they came in just now, they seemed to have heard a system prompt.
[Ding——Congratulations to the player for successfully reaching the temporary safe zone. Since this instance has been contaminated by unknown factors, the aquarium pollution story has been temporarily removed. As long as the player purchases a ticket, they can be protected by the aquarium.]
Lou Keqing held a flyer in her hand and patted Tang Xiaoxiao on the shoulder: "Look at this."
It was a flyer with a picture of the aquarium's appearance, and at the top were a few big words written: Weird Aquarium Rules.
But the strange thing was that most of the paper was crossed out with a black pen, leaving only a few lines.
[1. You must buy a ticket to enter. Illegal intruders will be permanently left in the aquarium in a different form.]
[6. Any area with water, when irradiated by blue light water source, can remove pollution and various negative emotions in the body to a great extent.]
[10. Do not come into direct contact with fishes, but if you get close to them through glass, they can eat some of the bad things in your body.]
[11. Please leave the aquarium in time after dawn, otherwise you will stay here forever. ]
"The system prompts that the rules for weird stories in the aquarium have been expelled, so the remaining few rules should be absolutely correct."
Tang Xiaoxiao finally felt better after being comforted by Lou Keqing. The most important thing was that she could clearly see that Qiao Song's complexion was getting better.
At some point, she seemed to see Sister Qiao Song blink her eyes.
That was not Tang Xiaoxiao's illusion. Qiao Song, who was almost frozen all over, finally recovered in the aquarium. She raised her hand stiffly and summoned the shrine.
But it was not to release Jin Jiaqi who was trapped inside, but to release a few little spiders.
"You guys moved in here without my permission, so you should make some other contributions."
These big spiders appeared in front of Qiao Song when black flames suddenly broke out in the haunted house.
At that time, she heard a strange reminder that there was something nearby that could be put into the shrine as a mascot. The spiders also shouted, "We know the location of all the special devices and machines in the park! Please save us!"
Qiao Song was still running away with a hammer smashing the wall, and these guys simply pointed her in the direction of a super shortcut, allowing her to tear down the haunted house and create a faster route.
Qiao Song remembered that when the mascot entered the shrine, it would seem like it would sign a soul contract that required it to be obedient. Although he was a little suspicious as to why these three spiders suddenly appeared, he still agreed to their request to move in.
She just happened to have some questions that needed answers from the local residents.
At this moment, she was almost frozen, so she summoned out these three spiders.
"Tell me, what happened to me?"
Who would have thought that the three big spiders would start crying with tears and snot.
"Isn't this the negative impact of the River of Life and Death in your own body? The river in your head burned down our haunted house!"
Qiao Song:?
Why are you crying? I am the victim, okay?
The spider with the biggest head finally stopped crying, fearing that the player it had just surrendered to would slap it into a pulp.
The big head slowed down and prepared to focus on the key points:
"Well, have you completed the infinite game once before and returned to reality? I see that you also have a shrine, but it seems that you have used up your resurrection times."
Seeing that Qiao Song had woken up, the people nearby wanted to ask what had happened: ?
Shocked glances swept over.
The boss is actually among us! ?
Qiao Song was even more shocked than them: Who cleared the Infinite Highway? Me?
