“Heh, if you didn’t know better, you’d think Wang Yun was a program inspector.”
Wang Yue’s words made Hardy sneer coldly.
“Helicopters, move out,” Hardy shouted into the radio with his commanding personality.
But he didn’t dare mock Wang Yue further, as he had witnessed Wang Yun’s prowess firsthand.
The buzzing of helicopters had already prepared the surroundings. Soon, the sound of rotor blades echoed throughout the entire valley. Other program inspectors, seeing the helicopter in action, imdiately understood and started gathering toward the previous mountain.

“Boss, it’s the sound of a helicopter. They’ve figured out we’re at the top of the mountain,” Brother Hu shouted.
Wang Yun nodded.
“It’s inevitable they’d guess. If they couldn’t figure out at least this much, I’d have really overestimated them. How’s it going on your end, Wang Zi?” Wang Yun asked.
Sweat poured down Wang Zi’s face, showing his urgency. “I’m just about to finish the third one. I still need at least another hour and a half for the rest.”
Wang Zi didn’t even lift his head, his hands worked continuously.
“We don’t have ti. Judging by the helicopter sounds, they’ll be over us in fiften minutes. Once those spotlights hit, they’ll see everything.” Wang Yun said.
He frowned, looking at the two glider suits on the ground. He knew their current situation was critical. The helicopters closing in ant their ti was almost up. The urgency in the air was palpable as they prepared for the inevitable confrontation.
“Brother Hu, Old Song, co here and put on these suits. I’ll teach you how to fly,” Wang Yun called them over with a wave.
The two n didn’t hesitate. It was better for one of them to escape than for all of them to get caught here.
“A glider suit works by diving to gain speed and spreading out to reduce it,” Wang Yun explained and showed them. “With a cliff like this, at a height of about thirty ters, the glider suit should reach a speed of eighty kiloters per hour. You should be able to glide for about ten minutes, which ans you’ll land right in the heart of Xiyun City.”
Hearing this, both n’s faces lit up with excitent.
“So we can escape successfully,” Brother Hu said with a smile.
Wang Yun shook his head. “That’s the best-case scenario, but for now, each of you will need to carry soone on your back.”
He then looked at Wang Zi, Little Gang, and the teammate lying nearby, ready for action.
“Carry soone on our backs?” Brother Hu and Old Song exclaid simultaneously.
Wang Yun nodded, his expression very serious. He stepped forward and patted their shoulders.
“Yes, each of you will carry one. This has never been attempted, not even abroad. I don’t know if it’ll work. In theory, it should, but it’ll halve your speed and distance, and make landing much more difficult. No one can guarantee you’ll land safely, or if you’ll fall from the sky.”
He paused and looked them in the eyes.
“Rember, this isn’t a drill, and it’s not part of the show. So now, I’m asking you seriously. If you’re willing, we can continue, but you know there’s a real risk to your lives. If you’re worried, you can back out now. After all, this is just a show,” Wang Yun said.
After all, this was just a show.
When Wang Yun said this last line, the faces of the five people around him changed instantly. Even Wang Zi, who was busy sewing the glider suits, looked up in astonishnt.
Wang Yun’s words created a surreal connection but in a contrary way.
Here was a person playing the role of a fierce criminal, telling his subordinates on the show that this was just a program. It was like filming a TV show and then turning to the enemy to say, “We’re just filming a TV show.”
The executive producer even frowned at this.
In the context of a program or a filming set, this kind of ta-comntary was absolutely forbidden as it could break the audience’s imrsion. This was a major taboo in the entertainnt industry.
“Brother Wang, what are you saying? This isn’t what we talked about,” the producer couldn’t help but voice his concern to Wang Yun.
Wang Yun completely ignored the voice in his ear. Instead, he looked seriously at the five people around him.
“This ti, it’s not a simulation. There’s no safety net below. I also can’t guarantee your safety. This is a real risk,” Wang Yun said earnestly.
“The most the show can do is call an ambulance if sothing happens. I want you five to think this through. This is too dangerous. If it were just , I wouldn’t worry about it. But I don’t want anything to happen to them,” Wang Yun continued, glancing into the distance.
His words were truly heartfelt.
I don’t want them to get hurt. I can take responsibility for myself.
These words were deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone present.
The viewers watching the live broadcast instantly started shouting along.
“Big Brother is right! How can you simulate flying? It’s either you fly or you don’t!”
“Exactly, if they don’t run, they’ll get caught and be eliminated. But if they run, they face life-threatening danger!”
“Big Brother is so responsible. In real life, if faced with this situation, so people would rather get caught!”
“Big Brother is in a tough spot right now. If sothing really happens, it’s a matter of life and death!”
The viewers in the livestream didn’t resent Wang Yun’s earlier words. On the contrary, they were more aware that this was a show and there was no need to risk their lives for it. If sothing really did happen, it would make the news, and the show wouldn’t be able to continue.
The producer could see all the ssages in real ti. Seeing the audience’s reaction aligned with Wang Yun’s, he sighed in relief. The viewers seed to agree that this was a special situation and needed special treatnt.
After a mont of silence, he picked up the intercom and spoke in a deep voice.
“Alright, everyone, listen up. Given the current situation and the potential dangers, I’m issuing a temporary contract. This contract will acknowledge the risks involved and state that participation in this action is entirely voluntary. It will also include a clause that the show will not be held responsible for any injuries incurred during this escape attempt. Please think it through carefully before signing.”
The producer’s voice was solemn, making it clear that he understood the gravity of the situation and respected the participants’ willingness to take such a risk.
“Wang Yun, Hu Hanqing, and the rest of you, you need to think carefully. As the representative of the production team, I am asking for a verbal agreent from you. If you choose to continue with the next part of the show, you must acknowledge that any incidents are voluntary and have no connection to the production team. Do you agree?” said the executive producer.
At the sa ti, a staff mber added these words as subtitles in Wang Yun’s livestream.
The situation was too important to ignore, and this asure was necessary.
This was the first ti subtitles from the producer appeared in Wang Yun’s livestream. It was also the first ti viewers cursed the show.
“Damn it, what the hell! Isn’t this despicable? They just want to clear themselves of any responsibility!”
“These guys are risking their lives for your ratings! How can you be so cold-blooded?”
“Everyone, calm down. The production team is trying to protect themselves. If these people can’t distinguish reality and sothing happens, what would the production team do?”
“While it’s understandable that the production team is doing this for self-preservation, their approach at this mont seems a bit small-minded!”
The audience’s emotions were running high.
Seeing this, the executive producer felt helpless, and the staff beside him wore worried expressions. They weren’t too concerned about Wang Yun, given his previous experience with a glider. Moreover, Wang Yun was an extraordinary talent.
But the others? Not everyone was like Wang Yun.
