nXiao Tangqiu, who was already in danger, was unlikely to help these newbies in a crisis and could only do his best to help them at this time. Whether these newbies could survive afterwards depended on their own luck.

nWhen they heard that the boy was beheaded, their expressions were rather ugly. Although they weren’t friends, they were companions right now and it was inevitable that they sympathized with him since they were in the same situation.

n“So… he’s dead now?” The girl’s face turned pale.

nXiao Tangqiu didn’t answer her, adding lightly, “Alright then, we should go.”

nOther than the five people on their side, the other group of players were ready to leave. They seemed to have wasted a lot of time in the haunted house. If they didn’t hurry up, perhaps they wouldn’t be able to leave here before dawn.

n“Let’s go!” Tang Mianmian also chimed in.

nThey were worried but could only continue on their way.

nAfter they passed through several old, dilapidated facilities, they finally arrived at the front of the second event, the roller coaster of death.

nTang Mianmian looked up and couldn’t help but gulp anxiously, “Um… can I choose not to play…”

nXiao Tangqiu was also a little scared but he could only smile and say, “What do you think?”

nTang Mianmian wanted to cry but had no tears. “I choose to quit this game!”

nXiao Tangqiu trembled, “How will you quit the game? Please tell me.”

nTang Mianmian said, “…This doesn’t make sense! Why is there such a tall roller coaster in such a shabby amusement park?” That’s right, the roller coaster in front of them was hundreds of meters tall! Even if they tried their best to look up, they couldn’t see the highest peak of the roller coaster, which looked like it reached the sky.

nAnd this roller coaster actually had a wooden track!

nThe oldest, most dangerous wooden track!

nXiao Tangqiu carefully studied the roller coaster track and soon found that many areas had been corroded by strong winds and heavy rain. Some parts even seemed to be broken! Xiao Tangqiu felt a shiver crawl up his spine.

nEven if there weren’t any other scary elements in this roller coaster, it was already terrifying enough! Indeed, as expected of the roller coaster of death! It was so scary ah!

nXiao Tangqiu hesitated for a moment and finally decided not to tell Tang Mianmian about it. Tang Mianmian was a coward. If he knew about it, he would only be scared to death. If they “won” the lottery again, Tang Mianmian might have scared himself to death just by riding on the roller coaster.

n“Wuwuwu…” Tang Mianmian asked Xiao Tangqiu tearfully, “Qiuqiu, do you think we will…”

nXiao Tangqiu said hesitantly, “I have a bad feeling…”

nBefore he could finish, Tang Mianmian’s expression suddenly changed because he guessed what Xiao Tangqiu was going to say. “Shut up! Don’t say it! Don’t you dare continue speaking!”

nJust then, the clown appeared.

nThe clown had suddenly appeared among them unnoticed, holding the familiar box in his hand.

nA comical yet indifferent smile appeared on his colorful face.

n“Hee-hee hee-hee! Let’s draw lots! I can’t wait!”

n“Same as usual! Come and draw the red and black balls!”

nAn alarm instantly sounded in Xiao Tangqiu’s heart. Draw the red and black balls again? So this time, would the ones who drew the red ball have to ride the roller coaster or would it be the ones who drew the black ball? Having suffered a loss once, he knew very well that this clown didn’t play according to common sense. What if the rules were changed at will?

n

n

nHe was about to ask, but suddenly thought of the sentence-

n“Don’t believe what the clown says.”

nXiao Tangqiu suddenly calmed down. Forget about whether or not the clown might lie. Even if the clown told the truth, could he change the final result?

nIt was impossible. A jinx would always be a jinx. There was no way he could become the king of luck. There was no way for a jinx to take away the luck of the king of luck.

nSo he calmly drew a ball, looked at the black ball in his hand and waited for the clown to announce the final result.

n“Congratulations to the lucky players who drew the black ball! You will have an incomparably fascinating journey! This is a trip to bliss! Let your souls go to heaven with the ultimate joy!”

nHearing the clown’s grandiose tone, Xiao Tangqiu silently looked at Tang Mianmian. Just like the last time, the two of them once again drew black balls.

nTang Mianmian looked like he wanted to flip a table. “…Fuck! Another black ball! Why is it another black ball?! Indeed as expected, it’s a black ball!”

nXiao Tangqiu gave a wry smile. “It seems that we are both unlucky again.”

nTang Mianmian wanted to explode in anger. “What the hell does ‘let your souls go to heaven with the ultimate joy’ mean? Doesn’t this mean that we’ll die once we ride the roller coaster?”

nXiao Tangqiu didn’t know how to comfort Tang Mianmian because he hadn’t told him about the visible dangers of the roller coaster. He was about to be scared to death too ah. If he met a ghost in the haunted house, he could turn around and run. If he met a ghost on the roller coaster, he would have nowhere to run! Worst of all, the roller coaster itself could kill them!

nNo matter how much Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian resisted, they finally came to the front of the roller coaster. Aside from them, there were four others who also got the black ball.

nThis time there were six black balls in the box, which was mentioned to them by the clown in advance. Xiao Tangqiu wanted to see if “the boy” was qualified to draw but this time the clown changed the rules. When the sixth person who drew the black ball appeared, the clown announced that the draw was over, so the last person who didn’t draw was “the boy.”

nThe other four people were the sporty student and the only girl among them, and the other two were from the other team.

nThis time, the geek didn’t draw the black ball either. When he found out that he had drawn the red ball, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and showed a smile that boasted his confidence.

nAt the time, Tang Mianmian eagerly watched the geek, as if he wanted to rush over and snatch the red ball from the geek’s hand, but the clown wouldn’t allow this kind of thing to happen.

nBefore going on the roller coaster, Tang Mianmian couldn’t help but ask Xiao Tangqiu. “If every draw is determined by luck, wouldn’t it be possible for lucky people not to participate in every event from start to end?”

nXiao Tangqiu said, “I’m afraid so.”

nTang Mianmian cursed, “Fuck! Do people with bad luck deserve to die?! That’s not fair. Wuwuwuwuwu.“

nXiao Tangqiu sighed, “This is the strength of the king of luck.”

nTang Mianmian cried, “Wuwuwuwu, I’m so jealous!”

nCould Xiao Tangqiu not feel jealous? Of course he was jealous!

nBut was jealousy useful? Of course not!

nSince he couldn’t stand up and resist, he could only lie down and accept it.

nHe fastened his seat belt as tightly as he could, although the seatbelt on the roller coaster looked really worrying. He told Tang Mianmian to fasten his seatbelt as well.

nWhen everyone got on the roller coaster, the roller coaster began to slowly move.

nSqueak, squeak…

nThis sort of old, rickety roller coaster made horrible, scary sounds. He felt his jaw ache from the fear. Not only that, there was some harsh noise due to the age of the facilities.

nSqueak, squeak…

nXiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian sat side by side in the middle of the roller coaster. The sporty student and the girl sat behind them, while the other two players sat in the first row.

n

n

nThe two players from the other team were obviously looking for excitement. They weren’t scared at all by the shabby roller coaster and its towering height. On the contrary, they had a face full of eagerness and even let go of the rails. They looked like they wanted to embrace the sky with open arms. The girl sitting behind Xiao Tangqiu was already trembling all over.

nHowever, Tang Mianmian shook even more than she did. Even his teeth were shaking. “Qiu… Qiuqiu…”

nAs the roller coaster went higher and higher, Xiao Tangqiu started to turn pale as well but he still tried to calm down. “What’s the matter?”

nTang Mianmian silently grabbed the strap across his body. “Do you think this thing looks like a seat belt?”

nXiao Tangqiu, “……”

nSqueak, squeak…

nThe roller coaster got higher and higher, and would soon reach the first peak. The slope wasn’t very steep, not even a hundred meters but the people below had become ant-sized.

nXiao Tangqiu went crazy at once. “Why didn’t you wear your seatbelt?”

nTang Mianmian was going mad too. “I clearly fixed my seatbelt earlier! But it looks broken!”

nXiao Tangqiu tried to keep calm. “Don’t worry, there’s also a safety bar! We should be okay with this safety bar…”

nHe had just finished speaking when Tang Mianmian subconsciously reached out to pull the safety bar in front of his chest. As a result, the safety bar automatically bounced up!

nThe whoosh of the wind sounded in their ears as they looked at the scene in front of them in silence.

nXiao Tangqiu, “……”

nTang Mianmian, “……”

nNo seatbelt! No safety bar!

nTang Mianmian looked like he was about to faint from the fear. “I’m going to die…”

nXiao Tangqiu tried his best to calm himself and at the same time calm Tang Mianmian down. “Calm down! Calm down! The roller coaster hasn’t reached the first slope yet! Have you seen the guardrails on both sides of the roller coaster track? We can slowly grab the guardrail and go down to the tracks first, and then slowly climb down from the tracks… “

nThere were guardrails on both sides of the roller coaster track, and there was a passage for one person to walk along the guardrail. It must be a path for maintenance workers to carry out regular maintenance. Although they didn’t have any safety measures, it shouldn’t be a problem… as long as they were careful…

nAlthough Tang Mianmian was now paralyzed with fear, Xiao Tangqiu believed that he would definitely be able to break out in strength at the critical moment.

nTang Mianmian opened his mouth and seemed to say something.

nThe wind was so strong that Xiao Tangqiu couldn’t hear him clearly. “…What?”

nTang Mianmian gave a smile of despair. “Did you hear that?”

nXiao Tangqiu thought Tang Mianmian was hallucinating. “What did you hear? The call of death?”

nTang Mianmian’s eyes were blank as his mouth twitched slightly. “The sound of wood breaking…”

nXiao Tangqiu’s expression suddenly changed because he seemed to hear it too!

nHe immediately turned around to look, his eyes widened in shock.

nIt was the sound of wood breaking!

nThe wooden track behind them started to fall apart!

nPlank by plank by plank.

nIn the blink of an eye, the base of the wooden track broke bit by bit, spreading to the bottom of the roller coaster.
