Fantasy Amusement Park
Chapter 89: Can’t I develop late?!

In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room:     

[Aaaaaaahhh, the scene that I’ve been expecting to see since the beginning of this instance has finally appeared!!]

[Little liar, aaaahhhh so cute, so cute. My new XP 1A Chinese Internet slang, short for 性癖(pronounced as XìngPǐ) in Chinese. Mean someone’s aesthetics. If someone says his or her XP is something, it can simply be understood as he or she loves something. has appeared!]

[Pervert upstairs, don’t come near my treasure! Come on, come on, hug mama boo-hoo—]

[F*ck, am I the only one who is confused? Why did he suddenly get smaller? Why do you all seem to have guessed it?! Help, give me a hint!]

Wen Jianyan blinked in a daze, then lowered his head to examine his own body: “……”

…it can’t be?

No way!!!     

Yun Bilan walked over with an ice cream in her hand and looked up and down at Wen Jianyan with concern: “How are you feeling? Is there anything uncomfortable?”

“Not really.”

As soon as Wen Jianyan’s words came out, he was stunned for a moment.

It was unknown if it was because of the shrinkage of his body, but his voice had also changed, carrying a bit of hoarseness from his voice-changing period and appearing soft and immature.

He touched his throat a little unaccustomedly.

The line of his Adam’s apple seemed to have softened, and his small throat bone trembled slightly under the soft flesh.

…strange.

Yun Bilan stared at Wen Jianyan in front of her. She couldn’t help raising her hand and poking the soft flesh on the other party’s cheek.

“!?”

The young man was taken aback, and his eyes widened slightly: “What are you doing?”

 “…Ahem, it’s nothing.”

Yun Bilan’s eyes flickered, and she said calmly, “I just wanted to confirm.”

In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room:

[Help, it’s baby fat, baby fat!!!]

[The dog liar was too cute when he was young. Help me! I need artificial respiration!]

[It feels good just by looking at it!! What should I do? I really want to touch him too. Crying out of jealousy!]

Wen Jianyan turned his head and looked thoughtfully at the two people in front of him: “Speaking of it…it’s not just me. Didn’t you realize that the age of the two of you also has some changes?”

Although the changes between the two of them were not as great as Wen Jianyan’s, they could still be seen if one looked closely.

The two were startled and looked at each other.

“It seems to be true…”

Elise lowered her eyes and touched her chest: “It’s getting smaller.”

Yun Bilan moved closer to the glass door, carefully scrutinized her childish face, and widened her eyes slightly: “I’m much younger!”

She touched her cheek, and her eyes lit up: “The skin is so good!”

Wen Jianyan: “……”

He coughed lightly: “Be serious.”

It was a pity that with his current slender body and immature appearance with all the sleeves and trousers growing out, saying such words did not sound deterrent at all.

“Although we all have changed.”

Yun Bilan turned to look at Wen Jianyan: “But you have changed too much.”

 She was just slightly shorter than Wen Jianyan: “Including your height…”

Wen Jianyan: “……”

You really know how to poke someone’s weak spot!

But it was true.

If the two people in front of him were just getting younger, then he himself had directly shrunk by an age group.

Wen Jianyan lowered his eyes, lost in thought.

“Ah!”

Wen Jianyan was startled, as if he suddenly remembered something.

“?” Yun Bilan and Elise both looked at Wen Jianyan suspiciously at the same time: “What’s wrong? Did you think of anything?”

Wen Jianyan touched his chin thoughtfully: “Starting from the thriller zone, we have been acting together, and logically speaking, we shouldn’t make any choices that are too different; the only difference is that I went to the gift shop to spend once before entering the thriller zone.” 

Elise frowned: “You mean, the gifts you bought made you smaller?” 

“No, that’s not it.”

Unexpectedly, Wen Jianyan shook his head: “I mean, I spent more coupons than you.”

The other two were startled.

Wen Jianyan followed his own train of thought and continued to say: “Actually, I noticed from the very beginning that many rules in this amusement park are aimed at “children”, such as the height limit in the thriller zone project and the age limit for buying Mr. Ribbit dolls in the gift shop….” 

“According to my understanding, all the anchors in the Nightmare are adults, and the people who enter the amusement park are only adults, so aren’t these rules completely invalid?”

 Wen Jianyan stared at the slowly melting strawberry ice cream in his cup and continued:

“At first, I thought that the amusement park was a place for parents and children to have fun together, and these rules appeared just to conform to the background logic, but now it seems that these rules are much more detailed than we imagined.”

He raised his eyes:

“These rules appeared because the rule makers knew from the beginning that as time went by, the anchors were bound to use more and more coupons, and their body ages would become smaller and smaller.”

The other two fell silent with solemn expressions.

It was true that all those rules about height and age restrictions were just invalid regulations in their eyes, but judging from the current situation, it was obvious that there was an internal logic to them.

This was also consistent with their understanding of the instance mechanism—

The longer the time, the higher the difficulty and the more variables.

“If this guess is correct, it is the right choice for us to go to the thriller zone from the beginning.”

Wen Jianyan added:

“As time goes by, there will only be fewer and fewer items that can be played. All the anchors will have fewer and fewer coupons in their hands, and their age will become younger and younger…”

Yun Bilan was startled and then took over the conversation: “That is to say, if the thriller zone is played at the end, even if the items inside are still open, the anchors will still be restricted and unable to enter because of their height!”

Wen Jianyan nodded.

He continued: “Since the coupons don’t have names, they can be snatched at will, which means that our current state is only temporary. As long as we grab enough coupons from others, we can restore our previous state.”

The instances in Nightmare always encourage the anchors to fight each other.

“……”

The moment they figured this out, a layer of cold sweat broke out on everyone’s backs.

If all the anchors really avoided the thriller zone park, then when the instance developed to the later stage, there would indeed be fewer projects than the anchors, which would inevitably lead to a full-scale civil war and massacre because only those who had enough coupons in their hands could meet the age restrictions for the thriller zone.

This instance was really…

Dark.

Too dark.

“However, it’s not without good news. If we infer from the logic of the instance mechanism, the thriller zone we headed to should be the most difficult in the whole instance.” 

It was precisely because of this that it was left at the end by the rules.

It was just that it obviously didn’t expect that there would be so many desperate people this time, and they actually played the most difficult one directly as soon as they came and finally survived in the end!

“However, although this is the case in theory, we can’t take it lightly in the future. Who knows if there will be any moths in this instance?”

As Wen Jianyan spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and trouser legs to make his activities more convenient: 

“After all, we still don’t know why the amusement park makes the tourists smaller and what those blacked-out rules are…”

He squinted his eyes:

“No matter what they are, the content in them must be very important, and they may even be related to the real core of this instance.” 

In the “Integrity First” live broadcast room:

[…I tired of saying about how great the anchor is!]

[The anchor is awesome! (Broken sound)]

[Although the body has become smaller, the brain is still good! (50 reward points)]

[? What? Are you all seriously listening to the explanation of the instance mechanism? Is it just me who has been looking at the baby’s thin and white wrists and ankles?!]

***

In the shadows on the North Square.

Four male anchors gathered together, talking in a low voice and raising their eyes from time to time; their falcon-like eyes swept across the people in the square.

“Are you sure? The target entered the food area?”

“That’s right.”

A tall blond man nodded and pointed to his equally blond eyes: “I saw it with my own eyes.”

“Very well, then we’ll wait for him to come out.”

Bloody struggles were not allowed in the North Square, and in any case, they had to wait until the target entered the play area before doing anything.

One person glanced at the overcrowded gift shop not far away. He gritted his teeth, and a look of anxiety flashed in his eyes:

“Damn it, why is old third waiting in line for so long?”

“Damn it.”

The leading man spat and said viciously: “Just wait, after going out this time, we must charge at least ten times the commission from that Kong.”

Originally, they were just a hired vendetta squad targeting level D anchors, but unexpectedly, they followed this anchor to a level A instance!

Even if their chances of survival were not high, they still had to focus on completing the mission…

It was really not worth it!

***

Not far away, two people walked toward the ice cream stand.

It was Wen Ya and Lilith.

Lilith looked pale and sluggish, but the wound on her face was no longer bleeding, and she seemed to be out of danger of being parasitized by frog eggs.

 The three stopped talking and quickly surrounded them.

“!”

Wen Jianyan’s eyes lit up. He hurried forward a few steps, looked at Lilith with concern, and asked, “How are you doing? How are you feeling now? What did you encounter in the green-haired clown’s booth?”

Wen Ya opened her mouth to speak, but when she saw the questioner, she couldn’t help being stunned, a little stuck:

 “…You?”

“…..”

Wen Jianyan’s brows twitched, and the speed of his speech accelerated uncontrollably: “It’s true that I’m getting smaller, but that’s not important. The most important thing now is—”

Lilith seemed to have forgotten her situation; she widened her eyes slightly:

“So cute.”

Wen Jianyan: “……”

He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, “It’s impolite to call a man cute, and according to my memory, this should be at least when I was sixteen or seventeen—” 

“Sixteen or seventeen?” 

Elise was also stunned: “Really?”

Wen Jianyan: “……”

He gritted his teeth viciously and said:

“Can’t I develop late?!”

“…That’s true.” Wen Ya’s gaze stayed on the young man’s head for a moment: “It seems that you jumped quite high when you were eighteen.” 

Wen Jianyan: “……”

He was somewhat devastated.

Can’t you people stay away from my height and focus on the instance!!!! 


The author has something to say: 

Q: May I ask Mr. Wu Zhu, did you just lose this big liar, or the little liar, or this little—

Wu Zhu: “……”

Q: Hey! Wait, wait a minute! You can’t take all three! Security guard, security guard! chase!
