[Beep beep beep beep beep♪~ beep beep beep beep♫~]
Rumbling...
Apart from the strange music, the Fox Guard Officer also heard the growl of an unknown monster.
That growl gave her a feeling of being watched, as if it were going to devour her at any moment.
[Is this the sound of hell...]
She felt a bit emotional.
Unlike the Fox Guard Officer, the Bald Elf and others had an unobstructed view.
So when they heard the music coming from the corridor behind them, they couldn’t help but look back, only to see a bizarre scene.
"What the hell is... this thing?"
"Why is there a car in the instance, and even a water sprinkler truck..."
"Isn’t the tech tree in this instance world supposed to be in a different direction?"
"More importantly, why is a water sprinkler truck appearing here?"
Yes, they saw a water sprinkler truck.
The truck was quite ordinary, but its presence here was not ordinary at all.
Looking towards the cockpit, they found the answer.
The person gripping the steering wheel had a number floating above their head: Contestant 99.
And in the co-pilot’s seat was another person with the number: Number 7.
But Number 7 seemed to be unwell, appearing listless.
"Hello everyone, I didn’t come late, did I?"
At that moment, they saw Contestant 99 lean out the window and wave to them.
[What, what is this thing?!]
The Fox Guard Officer had just regained her vision, and upon seeing this huge and intricate mechanical beast, she was stunned.
Then her gaze shifted to Jane Silk, and her expression tightened.
(Why is Deputy Jane in the mechanical beast?)
(Considering her appearance, has her identity been exposed and she’s now imprisoned?)
"Which of you is friends with this guy?"
The Bald Elf looked at the others, a joyful expression on his face: "He actually has a vehicle equipment card, how impressive!"
If they had such a vehicle at their disposal, their alliance’s power would surely rise to a higher level.
But no one answered his question, as they all looked at each other in surprise, not recognizing Contestant 99 or Number 7.
"Everyone stand back, I’m starting the car!"
Ree Shil didn’t care about their reactions, he stepped on the accelerator.
Whoosh!
The huge front of the truck barreled forward.
The players were all dumbfounded.
Their first thought was: Why is the starting speed of the water sprinkler truck so fierce?
What they didn’t know was that Ree Shil had spent some real money upgrading this seemingly ordinary water sprinkler truck.
[Wind Elemental Power Assistance]: Increases the wind elemental affinity of the equipment.
[Titanium Alloy Shell]: Increases the vehicle’s impact resistance
[Low-Level Windbreak Rune]: Reduces air resistance for weapons
This modified water sprinkler truck could be said to be much more powerful than the fire truck he had before.
Bang!
It wasn’t until the closest contestant was knocked off their feet that the others realized what was going on.
This guy, he came with bad intentions!
But that was all the reaction they had time for.
The water sprinkler truck was too fast, and the stone bridge, which was originally spacious, suddenly became crowded with it around.
Most of the contestants didn’t have enough time to dodge it.
Only those who were positioned on the edges managed to instinctively avoid it, feeling the strong wind on their faces and their hair blowing in it.
Bang! xN
Arcing figures flew through the air, plummeting towards the lava water surface.
And the heavily injured Fox Guard Officer couldn’t dodge either, she could only watch as the ferocious mechanical beast charged towards her.
Screech~~~~~!
However, with a shrill screech of friction, the mechanical beast’s momentum halted abruptly.
Its huge head’s shell barely touched the tip of her nose.
A cold sensation coming from the metal helped her finally come to her senses.
Splash! xN
The sound of splashing water rang out intensely, followed by an announcement.
[Ding dong!]xN
[I’ve gotten stronger, OUT!]
[What to play tonight, OUT!]
[Two slices of bread and cheese, OUT!]
[Tofu with salt, OUT!]
[Borrow your brain for a bite, OUT!]
...
A large number of contestants were eliminated at the same moment.
[I, I didn’t die?]
The Fox Guard Officer swallowed hard.
Then she heard Ree Shil’s voice coming from the car.
"I told you my driving skills are great, do you feel reassured now?"
"Ugh!!!"
Instead of a response, all he got was Jane Silk’s vomiting.
[You guys are...]
The Fox Guard Officer was actually addressing Jane Silk.
She didn’t know why the prisoner would help her.
"Do you even know how to drive!"
"What lousy driving skills, seriously!"
At this time, most of the surviving contestants who sensed something was wrong had already slipped away, leaving only two clueless newcomers to vent their grievances.
Ree Shil: "I’ll explain later, let me reverse the car first."
Crunch! x2
"Ouch!" x2
[Ding dong!]x2
[Sure to Win This Year, OUT!] freēwēbηovel.c૦m
[Strongest Newcomer, OUT!]
Humm!
Finally, with a flash of light, the water sprinkler truck disappeared into thin air.
"They have no idea of their own abilities, yet dare to question my driving skills."
Ree Shil cleaned his ears and looked displeased.
"..."
The Fox Guard Officer stood in place, not knowing what to say.
Originally, she thought that these prisoners were all undying.
Because just a few hours ago, she personally threw a prisoner into the lava, only for them to emerge unscathed.
She knew that all of this was due to the curse of the Ancient Palace.
Before this, they had also tried methods like not giving them food or drink.
But under the mysterious protection of the Ancient Palace, these prisoners remained alive and well.
