4: Chapter 4: A Close Call with Death!

Seeing Qin Feng standing on the edge of the rooftop on the other side, the netizens in the livestream room immediately became nervous.

"No way, what is this guy trying to do? Is he trying to jump off the building?"

"Could he be trying to take a shortcut using Parkour? This is too insane!"

"Impossible. He didn't survey the terrain beforehand. In this situation, what's the difference between Parkour and suicide? I don't think he'd be that stupid."

The netizens had just decided it was impossible, but who would have thought that Qin Feng would take a leap, actually jumping directly off the rooftop!

Everyone's eyes widened, and the Safety Officer from the Program Team was so scared that he stood up from his chair!

"Quick! Drone, follow him! Get a close-up!"

The staff member controlled the drone to follow, and everyone prayed not to capture the scene of Qin Feng falling to his death.

Just as the drone flew off the rooftop and aimed downwards, they saw Qin Feng like an arrow released from a bow, appearing in the frame at an extremely fast speed, running forward!

Seeing that Qin Feng was unharmed, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It turned out this area was entirely residential buildings, each with rooftop heights that were uneven, and the distance between buildings was not large.

Therefore, for a professional Parkour athlete, running across the rooftops was indeed faster than taking the main road directly.

But there was a problem.

Professional Extreme Sports athletes would always survey the route before doing Parkour and would do a practice run.

After all, no one could guarantee what the situation on the road ahead would be like.

If one happened to encounter a more complex road condition, wouldn't that just be an instant death?

However, at this moment, Qin Feng had not considered this issue at all; he was like a madman, sprinting directly forward!

"Holy crap, this guy didn't even survey the route, how does he dare to run so fast?"

"I think it's fine. It's just running on rooftops, it's not a big deal."

"Brother, do you want to listen to what you're saying? Is running on your own rooftop and suddenly jumping to another rooftop the same concept? Do you know that Parkour is one of the most dangerous Extreme Sports in the city?"

"Fun fact: about two thousand professional Parkour athletes die every year. Within the entire professional circle, the mortality rate for Parkour athletes is around 25%, which is already very high."

As an Extreme Sports master, Qin Feng naturally knew how dangerous it was to run like this.

But he had no other choice!

In his mind, the fifteen-minute countdown was still continuing.

If Qin Feng's speed didn't meet the standard, even if he finished the whole run safely, he wouldn't be able to complete the task given by the system.

Therefore, Qin Feng had no choice but to play it by ear and adapt to the situation.

Seeing Qin Feng sprinting on the rooftops, Shen Teng and the others, who were still struggling on the main road, were all stunned.

Shen Teng said with his mouth wide open: "My god, this young man is way too intense! Is he risking his life for twenty million?"

Yang Mi also couldn't help but ask Wu Jing, who was beside her.

"Brother Jing, you used to be in special operations, why don't you try taking a shortcut like him?"

Wu Jing shook his head.

"I don't dare to. I have a wife and kids."

As soon as Wu Jing said this, everyone around was a bit surprised.

Dilraba blinked her eyes and asked curiously: "What's there to be afraid of? I think he runs very easily. As long as you're brave enough, everyone should be able to run like this, right? I even feel like learning from him."

Dilraba's thought was also the thought of many others.

After all, they weren't professionals, so they didn't realize how much risk was involved in running like this.

Wu Jing smiled bitterly and said: "Don't look at this as if it's simple. That's because he is still in a high-density residential area, and these residential buildings are uniformly planned, with similar architectural styles and heights."

"That's why his early run was so smooth, and it looked like there wasn't much of a challenge. But if he passes this area, it won't be that easy anymore."

Just as Wu Jing finished speaking, Qin Feng ran past another platform and arrived at the edge, preparing to take a leap!

Who would have known that at the very moment he was preparing to jump, Qin Feng suddenly widened his eyes, and his entire body's muscles tensed up.

Qin Feng forcibly turned in mid-air, and his hands slapped onto the edge of the rooftop platform!

Hiss!

When everyone saw the situation in front clearly, they all couldn't help but gasp.

Just as Wu Jing had said, the reason Qin Feng ran so smoothly before was entirely because the old residential buildings in that area were all of similar height and appearance.

But at this moment, Qin Feng had already arrived at the very edge of this residential area, coming to the intersection of the old and new residential zones!

Opposite the residential building where Qin Feng stood was a new, smaller building.

The small building was not only three floors lower than the old residential area, but there was also a six-meter-wide road separating the two buildings!

If Qin Feng hadn't reacted quickly just now, he would have fallen directly from these six floors!

At a height of over ten meters, Qin Feng wouldn't have survived the fall; he would only have been smashed into a pulp of flesh!

Seeing Qin Feng clutching the edge of the rooftop with both hands, the Safety Officer of the Program Team was so scared that he quickly picked up his walkie-talkie.

"Where is the on-site staff? What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and save him!"

After putting down the walkie-talkie, the Safety Officer immediately said to the director: "Director, we can't let this continue. This kid is risking his life for money!"

"At the rate he's playing, he'll die in our show sooner or later, and when that happens, we'll all be sent to jail!"

The director was also scared into a cold sweat.

He had originally thought that Qin Feng was bold because of his high level of skill.

But now it seemed he had guessed wrong.

What kind of skill? Qin Feng was just purely reckless!

Thinking of this, the director finally made a decision.

"Have the staff go upstairs immediately, catch him, bring him back, and have him withdraw from the competition."

Hearing the director give this order, the Safety Officer finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Great, at least this way he wouldn't have to live in fear anymore.

After receiving the director's order, the staff immediately rushed to the rooftop.

But their running speed on the ground could certainly not compare to Qin Feng running directly in the sky.

Not to mention that they still had to climb from the first floor to the sixth floor; everyone could only pray that Qin Feng could hold on and not let his hands slip and fall.

Feeling the strength in his arms gradually returning, Qin Feng took a deep breath and pulled his whole body up with a Pull-up.

He sat on the edge of the rooftop, gasping for air, his back already soaked with cold sweat.

It was so close!

If he hadn't reacted quickly just now, or if one hand hadn't gripped firmly...

Then he would have already been smashed into a pulp of flesh by now.

This feeling of brushing shoulders with death made Qin Feng's adrenaline skyrocket; he had a thrill of surviving a disaster!

But now was not the time to relax, because the countdown in his mind was still continuing.

In the astonished gaze of everyone, Qin Feng stood up once again!
