Chapter 295 Don't loiter near haunted houses

"Stop screaming! You're not going to fall off!"

Chen Yu was getting a bit annoyed by the yelling.

Upon hearing this, Wang Mengmeng cried even harder: "Brother Yu!!! I'm going to die!!!"

The high-altitude swing continued to rise, and the rotation speed showed no sign of slowing down. As the chains accelerated, they emitted an increasingly shrill screeching sound!

"Rip!" "Clack, clack, clack!"

There goes another one!

This time it was from the university student team; a student was flung straight off!

"Ahhh! Captain, save me!"

Bai He, the team captain, reached out to grab him, but only grazed his fingertips before he vanished without a trace!

Seventy meters.

Eighty meters.

Ninety meters.

"Ahhh—"

The high-altitude swing continued to climb, the sound of the wind tearing the screams into shreds.

Everyone was pinned firmly against the backrests by centrifugal force, struggling even to lift their arms.

Chen Yu suddenly realized that only the screams of Yang Kexin and Zuo Shi remained around him. Where was Wang Mengmeng's voice?

He lowered his head and discovered that she had lost consciousness at some point.

"The Rapper never gets sick, muscles harder than stone."

"Bones thicker than steel pipes, fists that never lose to anyone."

On the other side, the Rapper was still rapping frantically, but his voice was trembling uncontrollably.

Finally… the high-altitude swing reached its highest point. The iron chains on the cantilever arm were whipped almost horizontal, and the seats were parallel to the ground.

Everyone was flying horizontally, and even breathing became extremely difficult.

Another person flew off, then one more, two more… It was impossible to count. Conservatively estimated, seven or eight people had already died in this round.

"Ahhhhh!!"

But the good news was that after reaching the highest point, the high-altitude swing didn't stay there for long before it began to descend.

During the descent, the force gradually diminished.

No one had been paying attention to the time for a while. Amidst the grinding of gears, the high-altitude swing slowly descended back to the ground. The final rotation ended, and the chains came to a complete halt.

Miscellaneous items were scattered everywhere: hats, glasses, shoes, severed limbs, and so on.

The only sounds left in the plaza were the wailing of the night wind and the rhythmic retching coming from all directions.

Everyone who got off the high-altitude swing collapsed to the ground, most of them crawling away.

"Holy sh*t, holy sh*t… I didn't die…"

"It's too terrifying, Mom, I want to go home!"

"Motherf*cker, who designed this level? Isn't this just disgusting!"

"Who puked all over my face in the air just now!"

With temporary safety, everyone finally had time to complain instead of just screaming.

In the rap team, the Rapper held onto his knees, still keeping up his rhythmic gestures, his voice hoarse: "Steady your mind, don't lose your cool; keep your head clear, don't feel faint, don't feel faint, don't feel faint!"

Meanwhile, Chen Yu held Wang Mengmeng and placed her on the ground.

She was wearing a tight-fitting short-sleeved shirt with an already low neckline. Having been spun around several times in mid-air, the hem of her shirt had ridden up quite a bit, revealing a patch of fair, soft flesh at her waist.

The piece of seaweed was wrapped around her several times. Come to think of it, she had her own figure to thank; it got caught on her chest above and her hips below. With her curves being both full and perky, the seaweed was pulled taut, digging a deep mark into her skin, but it couldn't slide off.

If she had a flatter figure, this round… wouldn't have been so simple.

Chen Yu reached out again to check her breathing.

But just as he got a bit closer… he heard her muttering sleep-talk like "fasten the seatbelt" and "never playing this again."

Chen Yu patted her face twice. No reaction. He patted her twice more.

This time, Wang Mengmeng's eyelashes fluttered. A few seconds later, she suddenly opened her eyes and sat up!

"I don't want to die!!!!"

Her first action upon waking was a wail! But everyone around was too busy with themselves, so no one paid attention to her scream!

"Huff…"

Wang Mengmeng took a few deep breaths. Seeing his face right in front of her, she paused for a beat: "Chen… Brother Yu?"

Chen Yu nodded and slowly stood up: "Yeah, you fainted just now."

"I just…"

Wang Mengmeng frowned. Thinking of the scene in the air just moments ago, she nearly fainted again!

She hurriedly hugged Chen Yu's calf: "Brother Yu! It was too scary!"

Not far away, Zuo Shi and Yang Kexin had already somewhat recovered. They walked over and stopped.

Zuo Shi's legs were still a bit weak. She crouched down and looked at Chen Yu: "I counted. Beside the high-altitude swing, there are only 32 people left. In other words, eight died…"

Yang Kexin whispered: "Just now, it seemed like one team—a four-person team—lost three members…"

Compared to other teams, Baby Bus could be considered the group with the fewest losses.

The two women helped Wang Mengmeng up and followed behind Chen Yu… preparing to get far away from this nightmarish amusement facility.

At the same time—a familiar voice rang out in everyone's minds without warning.

[high-altitude swing · Ride ended]

[This facility carried 40 passengers in total, 32 survived]

[Next facility—] [Rapid River Adventure]

[Will open promptly at 08:00 tomorrow morning. Please arrive at the facility entrance in advance, do not be late.]

[Currently, it is free exploration time. Supply crates have been dropped inside the amusement park; passengers may search for food, drinking water, medical supplies, and other materials on their own.]

[Amusement park rules reiterated: Do not damage amusement facilities; do not enter facility areas during non-operating hours; try not to loiter near the haunted house.]

The voice vanished. Free time had begun.

Zuo Shi frowned: "The amusement park rules… 'Do not enter facility areas during non-operating hours' is understandable, but 'try not to loiter near the haunted house'…"

Yang Kexin's eyes widened: "'Try not to' is not an absolute term, so doesn't that mean… we can loiter?"

Wang Mengmeng was still shaken: "Ah? We shouldn't loiter, right! I think everyone should just follow the rules… Besides, a place like a haunted house sounds creepy just hearing about it…"

Chen Yu pondered for a moment without replying.

But he had always known… danger is often accompanied by high rewards.

Just like the tower at the Frozen Outpost; no one dared to rush into the monsters, but Li Mengyao went, and so she got the prototype machine.

Just like the Blizzard Villa; the corridors no one dared to enter, he went himself, and instantly gained quite a few attribute points.

Just like the clearly structured Living Area and Villa Area; while others avoided them, Chen Yu took everything for himself.

These were all solid, proven truths.

"However, there is one piece of good news."

Chen Yu smiled slightly.

Wang Mengmeng tilted her head: "What good news?"

Yang Kexin also spoke up: "Just tell us, Brother Yu, stop keeping us in suspense!"

Chen Yu shrugged: "The interval between facility activations is so long, which means that Zuo Shi's Talent can be used frequently. At the very least, it ensures we'll be one step ahead in terms of information."
