Chapter 293 The Eldest Brother's Skipping Bet Technique

Hearing this ruthless rejection, Bai He and his teammates behind him were all stunned for a moment.

They hadn't expected that, in an environment where everyone was looking out for themselves...

Someone would refuse so decisively?

You have to know, while numbers don't directly equate to an advantage, they at least provide more confidence for the mission, right?

Bai He pushed up his glasses, not giving up immediately.

"You are an S-Rank Talent; indeed, you count as someone of note, so you should be a bit proud."

Chen Yu listened expressionlessly.

This remark seemed to be a subtle reminder: among them, they possessed a noble Perception-type Awakened.

Indeed, Perception-type Awakened were very useful in most scenarios, capable of avoiding harm and seeking advantages.

But Chen Yu felt it was dispensable; after all, he was already Third Place on the Haicheng Highway.

With the other girls having little combat power, ranking third was enough to prove a lot.

At the very least, there shouldn't be anyone capable of killing him instantly in a 1v1.

"But pride aside, to be honest..."

Bai He's tone was sincere as he shifted the conversation: "In front of the teams we just saw, this isn't enough."

Wang Mengmeng raised an eyebrow: "Which teams?"

Bai He tilted his chin toward the darkness in the distance and said: "We came in through Gate No. 2, and along the way, we saw three teams with S-Rank Talents alone."

Just then, a boy wearing a black jacket and black-rimmed glasses stepped forward.

"My name is Xu Zhiyuan, A-Rank Perception Talent. My medium is this compass; I can read the energy in the surrounding environment in a short time. I can guarantee this information."

Wang Mengmeng listened and scoffed: "So what if they're S-Rank teams? We aren't afraid!"

Xu Zhiyuan nodded: "This beautiful lady is right, S-Rank isn't scary. After all... our captain is also S-Rank, and he has a combat-type Talent."

Bai He stepped forward at this moment: "That's right, my Talent is S-Rank Strength-type, and my medium is an arm exerciser."

"Our team's combat power might not be the strongest, but when it comes to coordination, we are confident!"

He spoke in a low voice: "So I hope you all understand, teaming up isn't us trying to climb higher, but helping each other out!"

Chen Yu spoke coldly: "Are you done?"

"Uh?"

Bai He was stunned: "You..."

Chen Yu led the girls straight past them.

"You are a bit too confident, sir!"

Bai He's voice echoed in the air.

He even took a step forward, "We genuinely want to cooperate; we've even shown you our trump cards!"

His teammates followed behind and spoke up one after another:

"We've been so honest and open with you, is it necessary to be this rude?!"

"Yeah, we're all strangers meeting by chance, what's wrong with helping each other out?"

"Don't regret it when the critical moment comes and you don't have allies to back you up!!!"

The few people gathered behind Bai He, chattering away, only to find that Chen Yu's footsteps hadn't stopped at all.

But before Chen Yu could walk far, there was another rustling sound.

Except this time, along with footsteps, there was music and voices.

That's right, music!!!

"Boom—boom—boom—"

"Boom—boom—boom—"

A powerful blast of music arrived!

Everyone looked over in unison...

The speaker was quite large, carried on the shoulder of a young man with dyed red hair. The casing was covered in various stickers and tape, with several patches of paint chipped off the corners!

The music grew louder as they approached, revealing four figures!

The leader was a Skinny Tall Guy with dreadlocks, a row of silver earrings in his left ear, and a gold chain hanging around his neck, swaying gently against his chest with the rhythm of his body.

His right hand traced the rhythm in the air, his left thumb pointed down, and he muttered:

"YoYoYo—look who it is, a few nerds teaming up, begging to be let in and getting rejected, standing here showing off their faces. The faces are fair enough, but the words are worthless."

Behind him, the red-haired guy carrying the speaker said in awe: "Big Brother's rhyming technique is getting more and more skillful!"

Bai He frowned: "Is it them?"

Xu Zhiyuan subconsciously took half a step back: "It's the strongest team..."

"Not much skill but love to show off, finished showing off and got left out in the cold! Buddy, this isn't cooperation, you're looking for a daddy to carry you! If daddy doesn't carry you, you stand there crying and complaining, who to blame? Blame yourself for being trash~ skr~"

Four-line rhyme. As smooth as chopping vegetables.

His teammates behind him chanted in unison: "Yeah—"

Chen Yu: "..."

The three girls: "..."

Bai He cleared his throat: "Um, this bro, what are you here for...?"

The man with dreadlocks kept moving to the rhythm while saying: "My name is Feishou, followed the arrows, walked through the iron gate entrance, and then arrived here. Any questions?"

The red-haired guy whispered behind him: "Big Brother, the last two lines didn't rhyme."

Feishou said coldly: "I know!"

Just then, on the other side of the square, another team appeared.

They were all wearing work clothes, covered in unbrushed lime powder, looking like workers.

The leader was burly and was actually carrying a shovel.

Up to this point, among everyone who had appeared, only Chen Yu's team had three girls.

Even Chen Yu was a bit surprised; the female ratio was just too low.

[ Facility Name: high-altitude swing ]

[ Facility Level: B-Rank ]

[ Operating Duration: 5 minutes ]

[ During operation, please note: ]

[ 1. Strictly forbidden to unfasten seatbelts ]

[ 3. Strictly forbidden to throw objects from high altitude ]

The last line of text lit up for a moment, and then, a row of blood-red countdown numbers appeared:

120 ... 119 ... 118 ...

"One hundred and eighteen meters?!!"

Zuo Shi's expression changed, "This high-altitude swing has been abandoned for who knows how many years..."

Yang Kexin swallowed hard: "Our mission is to play these facilities?"

Wang Mengmeng was almost crying: "I... can I choose not to play..."

Chen Yu shook his head: "Listen to the mission prompt, let's go up and pick our seats first."

As he said this, Chen Yu had already taken the first step toward the high-altitude swing.

On the side, the other teams were also shocked:

"These rules don't give anyone time to think."

"This swing looks really unstable, damn it, this is ridiculous."

"If we really fall from that height, we're dead for sure!"

"No time, let's go, we can't be afraid at the very first facility!"

One team after another walked into the facility.
