Road Survival: My RV is a Moving Castle

"Dear friends, did you enjoy watching the first round of the competition?"

It stretched its arm holding the microphone toward the audience, while its other hand covered its ear, as if trying to hear the audience's voices.

The animals in the audience were also very supportive, cheering and screaming loudly.

The entire underground city was like a giant concert, with deafening cheers.

Song Chiyu secretly hoped that both she and Xu Xingshi would be on the second batch of the list.

This way, they can both get back to the RV as soon as possible, which is much safer than staying in the audience seats.

When the Lord of Mantis City finished announcing the list of the second batch of participants, Song Chiyu discovered that He Ran's name was among them.

It's a pity there's no Xu Xingshi, but there is Xu Miaoyin.

Upon hearing the name, Song Chiyu stood up from his seat.

She had already spotted her "nanny van" on that open space.

It's very inconspicuous among the many vehicles; it's ordinary and unremarkable.

He quickly left his seat and went to the "nanny van," where other players gradually arrived.

Everyone's face showed reluctance.

However, there's no way around it; if you don't come down quickly when your name is called, the surrounding animals will pounce on you.

Back in the familiar RV, Daidai, Xuedi, and Muling immediately surrounded them.

The fish were very worried because they had been away from the RV for too long.

After telling them roughly what had happened, Song Chiyu pondered what to do next.

Now she is a competitor, and all the animals' eyes are focused on the track.

Whatever you do, it's easy to be discovered.

For now, we can only focus on the competition and find another opportunity to assassinate the Mantis City Lord later.

...

"Alright! The second round of the competition is officially starting. On your marks—get set—charge!"

The voice of the Mantis City Lord rang out in the arena, followed by a command.

The sheepdog waved a colorful flag beside them, and the lights on the track suddenly came on.

Song Chiyu was assigned to the left track, and coincidentally, Xu Miaoyin and her partner were right next to her.

Upon seeing Song Chiyu, Xu Miaoyin's eyes now held a blatant hostility, unlike her previous curiosity.

Anyone who blocks their path to wealth—die!

As the surrounding vehicles started moving, Song Chiyu calmly ignited his car and stepped on the gas.

She watched everyone scrambling to get ahead and couldn't help but shake her head.

These people clearly saw the miserable state of the first batch of players, but instead of learning from the lessons of the first level, they sped up right from the start.

It seems they didn't prioritize survival over the competition, as the channel had suggested.

Soon, all the players leaped over Song Chiyu and rushed forward.

Seeing that Song Chiyu was driving so slowly, Xu Miaoyin immediately became cautious and also slowed down.

After all, Song Chiyu was the first to question whether her map was fake in the channel, so the other party probably really had a real map.

It's definitely safer to follow Song Chiyu.

Soon, the RV that was in the lead reached the first checkpoint.

Perhaps thinking of the tragic fate of the previous batch of players, he subconsciously slowed down.

Upon reaching the center of the "oil channel" and finding nothing amiss, they immediately relaxed their guard.

Unfortunately, the players behind didn't expect that they wouldn't even think about slowing down.

The high-speed spinning tires slipped on the "oil channel," and the second and third vehicles followed closely behind, once again turning into spinning tops.

The first car was then rammed by the two cars behind it, flying off the railing and falling into the black mist.

The two cars behind also crashed into the guardrail, billowing thick smoke.

The familiar scene reappeared, and the Mantis City Lord on the high platform burst into laughter.

They began to openly mock the players' stupidity.

The audience erupted in boos.

Fortunately, the cars behind were more nimble and quickly pulled over to the side and slowed down before reaching the "oil lane," allowing them to pass through slowly.

Apart from the first three cars, all the cars after them passed the first checkpoint safely.

Song Chiyu was still driving slowly behind, after all, she wasn't thinking about winning first place.

But Xu Miaoyin couldn't wait any longer.

So after passing the first hurdle, she and her teammates sped up and overtook most of the vehicles.

The second level is "obstacles," with more than twenty obstacles randomly distributed along the road to test the player's driving skills.

This trap is on Xu Miaoyin's map.

But the second level shown on the map she posted wasn't an "obstacle," but a long slope.

The long slope requires players to accelerate forward.

Unaware of this, the other players, after slowly making it through the first level, immediately sped up, determined to overtake on this slope.

Xu Miaoyin's car was also going very fast, and soon they arrived at the "obstacle".

Because she was very familiar with the location of the obstacles, she was able to nimbly avoid them even at high speeds.

But the other players following behind were in a much worse situation.

When they saw those dozens of tall, densely packed piers ahead, it was too late to brake and slow down.

Six or seven more players who were ranked higher died, along with their vehicles, in the obstacle course.

When Song Chiyu arrived at the obstacle, he saw a horrific car accident scene.

She immediately activated the "Savage Charge" skill.

Under the rock-hard front of the car, the blocks on the ground were crushed into pieces like roadside grass.

The Mantis City Lord noticed this and his smiling expression instantly froze.

His face was somewhat dark.

This is the first time a player has actually smashed through the obstacles it set up.

Now, only 5 players remain on the left track.

Song Chiyu, Xu Miaoyin, Xu Miaoyin as a partner, and another man and woman.

The regional channel was already filled with angry comments.

Everyone was condemning Xu Miaoyin's fake map and her hypocritical face.

At the same time, I am even more glad that I was not on the second batch of the list.

However, Xu Miaoyin had already achieved her goal and didn't care at all.

Soon, the group arrived at the third level – “Crazy Giant Swing”.

Song Chiyu had not explored this area before, but she knew that the third level consisted of five swinging hammers.

There are two large hammers on the left and three large hammers on the right.

You need to seize the opportunity and get through as quickly as possible, otherwise you'll be knocked away.

Although Song Chiyu was driving quite fast, the RV was fast enough that he quickly caught up with the other players.

There were already four vehicles parked ahead, and everyone was waiting for the best opportunity.

The van on the far left was the first to rush forward.

He steadily passed the first sledgehammer, the second sledgehammer...

Stop after each hammer strike, then find the right moment to proceed to the next one; it's quite safe.

But perhaps it was due to excessive tension, or perhaps the pressure from the surrounding pendulum ride was too great.

The player started to have some misperception about the speed of the pendulum, and before the fourth hammer had even completely passed, he moved forward.

The next second, the hammer slammed into the front of the car, the immense force instantly smashing the front of the car to pieces, killing the player inside instantly.

The rest of the car was also thrown away.

Another cheer erupted from the audience, and even the players who hadn't yet participated gasped in surprise.

The players in front of the level hesitated, and none of them dared to move forward.

Just then, Song Chiyu's "nanny van" drove up at a leisurely pace.
