Chapter 149
Chapter 149
By the time the Little Prince fully came back to his senses, the sight before him made his bladder clench.
The Roller Coaster had already climbed more than a hundred meters into the air and was swaying precariously along the track.
Every single wobble felt like it was about to plunge.
The Little Prince curled tightly in on himself. Since he was seated in the middle, the terror was at least slightly dulled.
But very soon, the stalled Roller Coaster finally charged downward.
The Little Prince choked back his scream as he dropped along with the Roller Coaster.
All of a sudden, the entire Roller Coaster seemed to fold in half.
The front section was left hanging in midair, and the seat that had originally been in the middle instantly became the front row!
Seeing the broken track ahead, cold sweat broke out across the Little Prince’s forehead.
Don’t fall. Please, I’m begging you, don’t fall!
Given the weight of the Roller Coaster, once the front half dropped, the other half would smash straight into the ground too.
It might not be a hundred meters anymore, but it was still a full fifty meters!
What would happen if he fell from this height?
The Little Prince didn’t dare think about it.
His prayers were completely useless. With a crack, the Roller Coaster split apart in an instant.
Its balance shattered, and the front section immediately plunged downward.
Sitting in the front row, the Little Prince was so panicked he was about to cry.
Taming a 650 tactical nuclear graphics card would be easier than this!
Don’t let me find out who wrote that article!
I’ll personally reward him with a Katyusha!
The fall the Little Prince feared never came. A pulling force instantly sucked the Roller Coaster onto another track.
And it was at that exact moment that a massive thrust sent the entire Roller Coaster accelerating.
The Little Prince was in the front row right now!
He could clearly see the broken track ahead.
This time, it wasn’t sloping downward. It was an incline angled seventy-five degrees up toward the sky!
As expected, the accelerating Roller Coaster shot straight off the track.
Once upon a time, when you told me a Roller Coaster could fly, I scoffed.
Now I believe it. This thing really can fly!
The Little Prince stared at the azure sky, his adrenaline exploding through the roof.
His eyes quietly closed, and his mind went blank.
The doctor stared at the heart rate on the tablet and silently swallowed.
Well, damn!
He really passed out!
“Um, what happens if your prince ends up in danger?”
The bodyguard beside him thought for a moment.
“We would be thrown into the crocodile pit. Anyone who injures the Little Prince would be sentenced to the ultimate punishment.”
The doctor’s face turned even paler. “Ultimate punishment?”
“Probably what you would call death by a thousand cuts.”
At those words, the doctor’s knees nearly went weak.
After a series of vivid imaginings, his resentful eyes filled with despair.
The doctor endured more than ten full minutes of torment. The moment he saw the Roller Coaster land, he rushed over.
A Suxiao Jiuxin Wan was stuffed into the Little Prince’s mouth in less than a second.
His middle finger lifted the prince’s chin while his thumb swept along his throat, sending the Suxiao Jiuxin Wan straight into his stomach.
The entire process took less than two seconds. By the time the bodyguards arrived, the doctor had already helped the Little Prince sit down off to the side.
Even while unconscious, the Little Prince kept muttering in his sleep.
“Katyusha, RPG, blow it up for me!”
“Boss, boss, are we still hiring employees?”
Li Yang held up his phone and jogged all the way to the Toy House.
“Yeah, we are. We still need at least around ten people.”
In truth, the Amusement Park was already short-staffed. It was just that he still hadn’t found anyone satisfactory from the school.
On top of that, with the water park about to open, he needed ten people no matter what.
“What do you think of our class monitor?”
“Hm?”
Li Yang pointed at his phone. “The class monitor is planning to jump ship with that group of classmates.”
“When?”
“In the next few days. They’ve already gotten their resignations ready.”
“All right. Have them come in for interviews.”
“Thank you, boss!”
Watching Li Yang leave, Zhang Bei smiled as well.
He had originally planned to visit other schools over the next few days to look for employees.
He hadn’t expected candidates to deliver themselves right to his door!
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the Little Prince slowly opened his eyes.
“Does the Prince want to keep playing?”
The Little Prince’s eyes instantly locked onto the bodyguard who had spoken.
Keep playing?
Was this guy trying to send him to his grave?
There were always treacherous peasants trying to harm the crown prince!
“Play, my ass. Book the tickets. I want to go see Tuanzi!”
The bodyguard shrank back under the Little Prince’s furious glare and quickly started tapping away on his phone.
Professor Li let out a sigh of relief as he watched the Little Prince decide to leave.
He was finally leaving!
With the Little Prince gone, the Amusement Park settled back down.
The screams were as constant as ever, and the doctor’s gaze was as resentful as ever.
Time moved on to an afternoon one month later.
Before anyone knew it, the visitors had started wearing jackets, and the air had taken on a slight chill.
Today, the final technology in the Laboratory had finally been successfully developed. Zhang Bei looked at the dozen-plus blueprints on the table and took a deep breath.
“System, begin!”
[Blueprints meet the requirements. Emotional Value has been deducted. Workers are being arranged to enter the site. Estimated construction time: seven days and fifteen hours.]
Since the Amusement Park was first established, this was the first project that would take so long.
But that timeline was worthy of the water park’s size.
Every bit of vacant land the Amusement Park had always possessed would be used.
A brand-new water circulation structure would be built using hot spring water, and the System’s Black Tech alone involved thirteen different types!
Li Yang rubbed his chilled hands and looked at the huge black tarp supported deep inside the Amusement Park.
“Hey, class monitor, are you adjusting all right?”
“It’s pretty good. At the very least, it’s better than working for those capitalists!”
Quite a few major things had happened for Zhang Bei over the past month.
First, Li Yang’s class monitor had joined the company with ten classmates.
Heizi’s new-energy vehicles had gone on sale. The first batch of two hundred thousand units sold out in a single day.
The last matter could hardly be considered a major event: Professor Li had already joined a research team.
He had vanished for more than half a month and couldn’t be contacted.
Zhang Bei had just exited the System Mall when he heard his phone ringing beside his ear.
“The funds are in place. There are currently three islands that meet your requirements.”
“Only three?”
“Bro, even if they’re just islands, they’re still territory. Three is already a lot!”
Zhang Bei rubbed his nose. “Where are they?”
“I’m on my way. We’ll talk when I get to the Amusement Park!”
“All right. I’ll wait for you.”
It didn’t take Heizi long to arrive at the Amusement Park. Familiar with the place, he went straight to Zhang Bei in the Monitoring Room.
“Yo, lost weight?”
Zhang Bei looked him up and down. Heizi really had slimmed down quite a bit from all the work lately.
Heizi immediately rolled his eyes. “You have the nerve to say that? You dumped more than ten technologies on me. Do you know how troublesome commercialization is?”
“Let’s look at the islands first!”
With the subject changed, Heizi didn’t keep pressing him. He took out the laptop he carried with him and opened the map.
“These three I’ve circled in red all meet the requirements for size and underground depth.”
Zhang Bei studied them carefully. Each of the three islands had its own advantages and drawbacks.
The one farthest from Huaxia had the largest area.
The one in the middle had an abandoned underground fortress.
And the island near Huaxia had complete autonomy.
