Yuxun Ge tilted her head to dodge, and in a swift motion, she turned and fired a shot. The player who had ambushed her immediately retreated, but Yuxun Ge didn’t pursue. Tulan was currently at a disadvantage; she had to guard the go-kart and Tulan.
The rule stating, “Only players driving go-karts can enter the parking spaces,” seemed to protect those parked, but in reality, it encouraged players to eliminate each other.
What if they couldn’t enter? Kill the go-kart driver, and the unmanned go-kart would drive itself out!
One minute and thirty seconds passed, and the parking lights lit up.
Tulan sniffled, clutching the steering wheel. Every part of this go-kart was meticulously assembled by her, given her limited Kart Coins. She truly looked down on the go-karts of other players.
Yuxun Ge said, “When we get back, I’ll customize one for you. We’ll buy a manor and build you a go-kart racetrack.”
Tulan paused her sobbing and asked, “Is this what you guys call a big pie?”
Yuxun Ge: “…”
A manor and a racetrack were really no big deal for her now. Even if she took the people from Dinghai to fight in the Colosseum just once, they would be willing to give her a manor in return for a treasure chest.
Or she could take a trip to the deep sea, bring back a few instance screens, and auction them off, easily trading for a thousand unique go-karts for Tulan.
But her mind wasn’t on these trivial matters.
Before she could ask Tulan what kind she wanted, the 10-second check-in time ended, and twenty explosions rang out.
Without them, the go-karts beneath them were just fine, and both Yuxun Ge and Tulan let out a sigh of relief.
However, with this explosion, another batch of players outside lost their go-karts. Yuxun Ge glanced around and noticed two parking spaces in the minefield were empty. Even so, there were still 85 new players eager to snatch a go-kart.
In the last round, seven players had successfully killed others to steal their go-karts.
This meant there were now a full 30 players outside without go-karts.
This time, when the check-in was successful and the Kart Coins on the steering wheel increased by three again, even though the next round wouldn’t start for another 20 seconds, Tulan had already released the brake and sped out, while Yuxun Ge had already set up her sniper.
Both she and Tulan excelled at this combat style of driving while shooting at players. Tulan’s driving skills allowed her to perfectly dodge at least half of the incoming skills, while Yuxun Ge relied on her passive talent that guaranteed a hit after three seconds of aiming. No matter how twisted the route, she could ensure her attacks landed.
If the opponent’s skills could also auto-track, Yuxun Ge would have to spend three points of her essence to activate “Bedtime Fairy Tale” to block it forcibly.
Here, cars were coming and going, and no go-karts followed traffic rules. Sometimes, when two go-karts brushed past each other, the players inside wouldn’t hesitate to raise their hands and hit each other.
Yuxun Ge elbowed quite a few players.
Of course, she had been hit many times too—sometimes by various tails, sometimes by wings, and sometimes by pets thrown by other players.
In the end, Yuxun Ge unleashed a “Volt Tackle”!
Tulan shouted, “Well done! Pikachu!”
Meanwhile, the third question was announced.
**[Third Question: Please pass through seven different colored parking spaces within 10 seconds and reverse into the same color parking space.]**
After circling a few times with Tulan, avoiding the pursuit of other players, they had already mapped out their route.
This time, the exam required early entry; otherwise, once other cars parked, the parking spaces would be blocked, making the challenge significantly harder.
She pressed the accelerator, her dragon claws spinning the steering wheel with agility. Even in such a tense moment, she remembered the rule that she couldn’t press the gas for more than 10 seconds.
The white go-kart weaved through various colored parking spaces until it reached the edge of the parking lot. She slammed on the brakes, taking less than four seconds. At that moment, Yuxun Ge had already leaped out of the go-kart and arrived at the front of the vehicle.
With a deep breath, she pushed the car into the parking space.
What to do if the go-kart didn’t have a reverse function? Just push it manually!
Many players who had followed her, intending to kill Yuxun Ge, suddenly realized, “Oh, it can be done this way?!”
Not just her; many players who had planned to give up on this round instantly shifted their focus back to the game.
Yuxun Ge instructed Tulan to guard the car while she stood on top of the go-kart, holding her sniper rifle steady. Anyone who approached would get a bullet without hesitation!
Their parking space was at the very edge, a spot Tulan had specifically chosen, ensuring it wouldn’t block other players’ routes. Anyone who came near definitely had ulterior motives.
Next, relying on Tulan’s driving skills and Yuxun Ge’s generous expenditure of essence points—almost every round they had to activate “Bedtime Fairy Tale”—the two of them continued to answer questions and check in.
**[Fourth Question: Park the go-kart in the same color parking space without any players in the seats.]**
This question was simple. She flew off, and Tulan took hold of the handlebars, driving the go-kart into the parking space. After using an ice pillar to slam on the brakes, she froze it in place.
**[Fifth Question: Park the go-kart in any parking space without the wheels touching the lines.]**
Yuxun Ge and Tulan lifted the go-kart into the parking space…
**[Sixth Question: Park next to a go-kart of a different color in a parking space of your go-kart’s color.]**
This question was downright malicious!
But Yuxun Ge was sharp as a tack. She quietly watched other players fight fiercely, their brains nearly bursting from the pressure.
Then, as the check-in time began, she stealthily moved to the pile of discarded go-karts and picked out a broken go-kart of a different color, placing it in their parking space.
**[Seventh Question: You need to be hit by another go-kart into a parking space of the same color.]**
Yuxun Ge once again retrieved that broken go-kart and, using a billiards-style technique, kicked the rear of the broken go-kart, sending her own car crashing into the parking space.
The players nearby were left dumbfounded by her maneuver.
**[Eighth Question: Enter the blue parking space in a spinning motion.]**
This was the most thrilling question, as they had to face not only players trying to steal their go-karts but also compete with other go-karts for parking spaces.
In this round, Tulan kept circling outside, evading pursuing players while Yuxun Ge filled the go-kart with fuel through her shooting.
Only when the final check-in time began did Tulan make her move!
She fixed ice spikes onto the go-kart and then, in a spinning motion, knocked a player and their go-kart out of a blue parking space. Yuxun Ge seized the opportunity to hit that player with “Drunken Dream.”
By the time that player was awakened by others trying to pick up the scraps, the parking space was already occupied, and the check-in time was halfway through.
Yuxun Ge and Tulan barely held on for five seconds before hastily driving away.
If it weren’t for the fact that players without go-karts couldn’t match the speed of a go-kart without using skills, Yuxun Ge and Tulan would have been completely out of luck.
**[Ninth Question: Drift, same color, got it?]**
Yuxun Ge and Tulan faced the onslaught of five pursuing players simultaneously.
They drove around, dodging players until the check-in began, then dashed into the parking space to complete the question, needing only to hold their position for 10 seconds.
Even so, they barely made it through, relying entirely on a mutually destructive strategy. With “Bedtime Fairy Tale” activated, they encircled their own go-kart with “Thunder Prison,” while “Drunken Dream,” “Volt Tackle,” and “Explosive Drummer” took turns attacking.
Even the unfinished “Cheers” was thrown out, but the damage from the lightning ball was too low to cause an explosion.
While Yuxun Ge bought time, Tulan managed to use “Aurora Screen” just to hold on until the end.
The moment they successfully checked in, nearly all their healing skills went on cooldown, and their mana was completely drained.
Tulan’s dragon claws were trembling from driving, and her wings were cramping. This was the first time her dragon had experienced such a thing.
Yuxun Ge had already invested nearly a hundred essence points just for this “Go-Kart License Exam” game!
The two of them, one person and one dragon, barely made it through to the end of the ninth question.
At this point, the Kart Coins they had earned from the game had reached 27, and with Tulan’s habit of using her stealing skill every time they passed a vending machine, they now had 38 Kart Coins.
However, they had already been at this gas station for nearly half an hour.
Each question took two minutes, and with the time spent waiting in the safe zone, they would violate the rules if they didn’t complete the tenth question in time.
Moreover, the number of players who had lost their go-karts had surged to 135.
Standing by the side of the road, they stared intently at the passing go-karts, searching for a target to strike, much like commuters waiting for a ride during rush hour.
Tulan didn’t dare to drive at normal speed; most of the time, she was in acceleration mode. “What should we do?”
Their damage value was already low, and if they kept succeeding, they could theoretically gain a lot of hints. However, from the start of the game until now, their damage value had only increased.
In the past 20 minutes, they had violated several rules.
Once, when Tulan passed a self-service vending machine, there weren’t many players nearby, and she had enough Kart Coins, so she decided to buy a part she had wanted for a long time, which would allow for faster nitro acceleration.
But just as they finished paying, they violated the rules.
Yuxun Ge had tried to say, “Could it be that we can’t spend during game time?”
The next second, a rule lit up.
