The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?

Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Speed of Life and Death

"Hiss!"

His face contorted instantly.

Intense pain almost made his nerves explode, a pain piercing through the flesh, just like the last time the pale flames scorched him.

Ghost Hand leapt off the tentacle, making a fist-bumping gesture.

Liu Zheng immediately understood, coiling up the tentacle to cover the wound.

Ghost Hand nodded its "head," then made a waving gesture.

He guessed that this meant he should throw out the golden liquid if he encountered any trouble.

Ghost Hand quickly left, and Liu Zheng followed closely behind.

He directly placed the food into the delivery box, saw there were no issues, and immediately rushed into the passageway.

Upon exiting the passageway, a white Chevrolet Malibu XL535 was indeed parked outside.

Liu Zheng climbed into the driver’s seat, ignited the engine, and started off.

At this moment, he was grateful for his four tentacles; otherwise, control would have been somewhat troublesome.

After setting the navigation, he decided to play a song.

But when he opened the car’s music interface, he found that all the song titles were jumbled up.

However, it didn’t matter, Liu Zheng just randomly picked the longest song title and clicked play.

"Huh?"

Contrary to his expectation, the song that played was an actual song from reality.

The French pop star Alizee’s version of "la isla bonita."

Simultaneously, an image of a girl with brown hair in a black see-through outfit dancing freely appeared on the front windshield.

"Wow, this is really distracting while driving,"

Liu Zheng complained, but his eyes honestly continued to gaze at the waist that had captured the attention of a generation.

"And when the samba played"

"The sun would set so high"

"Ring through my ears and sting my eyes"

"Your Spanish lullaby"

As the rhythm-filled song started playing, he floored the accelerator.

The speedometer needle spun crazily, quickly reaching the red zone.

Honestly, Liu Zheng had never driven like this in reality.

It wasn’t that he was sparing of his life, he was sparing of his money.

Now, even a single point cost two to three hundred, and a full score would be even more expensive.

But in this bizarre world, he could really let loose.

Liu Zheng fiercely turned the steering wheel, making a nearly drifting right turn, then stomped on the accelerator again, letting the tires squeal under the strain.

"Woohoo~"

He stuck his head out the window and cheered.

No driver’s license, no traffic lights, no speed cameras, no pedestrians or other vehicles, and even the car wasn’t his own.

This was probably the ultimate dream of every driver.

Liu Zheng wasn’t unaware of the risks under such fortunate low circumstances; it was extremely dangerous to drive this way.

But with such a short time limit, driving even slightly slower meant not keeping up; he had no choice.

Although he had licked Si Xue’s foot, Liu Zheng didn’t think that woman would let him off just because of that little interaction.

If he was going to die either way, he might as well enjoy a quick thrill.

Then, he saw something that made his heart skip a beat.

About three hundred meters ahead, a green vest was fluttering in the wind.

No need for any thought, the instinct ingrained in every driver’s genes screamed alarms.

"Slow down!"

"You can’t escape!"

"There’s a camera!"

Several voices rang in Liu Zheng’s ears all at once.

He admitted, they were right.

Especially in this world, breaking the rules would result in even worse consequences than in reality.

But...

Liu Zheng looked at his phone and his resolve hardened again.

He was a delivery person for Bloody Restaurant, after all.

Nothing could stop him from delivering on time, not even a green vest!

Liu Zheng pressed the accelerator to the floor without hesitation and charged towards the green vest.

The green vest turned its angle, facing the Chevrolet head-on.

It seemed to want to see clearly who was so audacious as to not slow down upon seeing it.

Are drivers these days this brave?

"He isn’t afraid of me issuing a ticket?"

Seeing Liu Zheng truly had no intention of slowing down, a translucent arm emerged from within the green vest and saluted him.

The steering wheel immediately straightened, the throttle popped up high, and the brake automatically slammed, sending the Chevrolet sliding straight towards the green vest with momentum.

Meanwhile, a deep, forceful voice replaced the music in the car’s sound system.

"Citizen, please stop the vehicle for inspection."

"Citizen, please stop the vehicle for inspection."

"Citizen, please stop the vehicle for inspection."

Each warning carried a potent force that made Liu Zheng’s heart race.

He knew that the green vest and other bizarre residents were different, representing the authority of City Hall.

In this city, the authority of City Hall was almost absolute. Even the Bloody Restaurant had to please the big shots of City Hall.

Only Chaos Club seemed to make City Hall slightly concede.

Thus, it all seemed destined.

Liu Zheng’s instance journey was about to end here...

Was it?

His eyes hardened, and he kicked hard at the brake.

The immense force made the entire car shudder, but what truly delivered the destructive blow to the brake was the real damage boosted by the Legendary Armor.

The brakes failed, but that wasn’t enough.

Liu Zheng kicked down on the accelerator again.

The real damage crushed the invisible force, as he floored the accelerator once more.

The green vest stopped floating, seemingly stunned.

Then, it visibly turned red.

The red vest, no longer willing to wait like a sitting duck, charged directly at the Chevrolet.

With its move, countless red lights appeared out of nowhere, covering the sky and targeting Liu Zheng.

An unquestionable majesty with the lights invaded his thoughts, making him feel as if he was defying the entire world.

"Sanity reduction immunity successful."

"Sanity reduction immunity successful."

"Sanity reduction immunity successful."

...

The system prompt kept sounding, making Liu Zheng’s heart jump.

Good grief, with this refresh rate, without the Legendary Armor, his sanity would’ve dropped to zero right there.

After his scare, Liu Zheng’s resolve grew even stronger.

He did not dodge or retreat but charged straight towards the red vest.

Just one second before the front car window was about to collide with the red vest, he sharply turned the steering wheel to the right.

The Chevrolet narrowly missed the red vest, hitting instead a thick stack of banknotes.

The red vest was furious.

This human not only didn’t stop the car but even dared to hit it with something!

As a proud formal employee of City Hall, it was beyond enraged.

It was so angry that its collar turned green!

The red vest disappeared on the spot, reappearing in front of the Chevrolet.

"Damn, that’s still not enough?"

Liu Zheng gritted his teeth upon seeing this.

Just now, he had thrown a thousand, and he had never given that much even to Niu Ma.

But the situation was stronger than him, so he threw another thousand.

This time the red vest grew even more furious, turning its chest green.

"Damn!"

Seeing the red vest reappear again, Liu Zheng had no choice but to throw money again.

This time the red vest was thoroughly enraged, turning completely into a green vest.

"Not to be repeated, third-class citizen."

The deep, forceful voice rang out once more.

Under the green vest’s saluting gaze, the Chevrolet sped off into the distance.

"Three thousand bucks,"

Liu Zheng lamented while driving.

Less than 24 hours had passed, and he had already suffered heavy losses, uncertain of what more surprises the remaining time might bring.

Liu Zheng swore that once he won the race, he would definitely give Fisherman a huge payback.

As he brooded, Academic Residence came into view.

He shut off the engine and got out of the car, with time still left until the meal delivery deadline.
