"Boom, boom, boom—" The ground around the racetrack began to collapse, leaving only a small path less than three meters wide at this point, and even this path was crooked and winding. That wasn’t all; from the abyss surrounding the track, endless tongues of flame began to spew out, and Wang Hao could even smell the pungent odor of sulfur!
Accompanied by a burst of intense heat!
Is this too realistic or what?! Does a game really need to be this scary?!
Had Wang Hao’s reaction speed not been far superior to that of normal people, his car would have been sent flying into the sea of fire in the blink of an eye!
At this time, Young Master Long in front was no longer daring to drive too fast, since the terrain here was completely random, and with the racetrack being less than three meters wide and the road full of bends, a slight mishap could mean destruction of the car and death of the driver.
But while Young Master Long didn’t dare drive too fast, Wang Hao had no such problems—he was laughing loudly as he chased after, and it wasn’t long before he closed in!
"One thousand meters!" "Eight hundred meters!" "Five hundred meters!" "Three hundred meters!" "One hundred meters!"
"Ha ha ha ha ha ha, I’ve caught up with you!" Amidst roaring laughter, Wang Hao slammed on the accelerator and drew a beautiful S-curve through the abyss of doom, hot on the heels of the Bugatti Veyron driven by Lan Qinglong, with less than fifty meters between them!
"Oh man, you’re driving a bit slow," hehe, calling you arrogant, watch Brother Hao teach you a lesson! Wang Hao poised his Maserati President and slammed hard into the rear end of Lan Qinglong’s Bugatti Veyron!
A loud crash sounded as the Bugatti Veyron almost spun into the fiery abyss!
"Ahhhhhhh!" Lan Qinglong immediately screamed, his voice incredibly shrill, as if he were a goat being strangled by the neck!
"Ha ha ha ha! I won, ha!" Wang Hao laughed heartily as he continued forward, smoothly passing through the abyss of doom and covering another five thousand meters or so to reach the finish line!
Everyone was completely stunned!
Not a single person could believe that Lan Qinglong, a professional racer, had been rear-ended by Wang Hao and plummeted off a cliff!
"This... this... was I dreaming just now?"
"Long... Young Master Long lost? How is that possible?! It must be fake! Definitely fake!"
"You!" Lan Qinglong violently removed his VR goggles and glared viciously at Wang Hao, angrily saying, "How dare you hit me! Do you have any idea how close you were to scaring me to death?!"
Wang Hao, who had removed his goggles as well, innocently looked at him: "I didn’t know..."
At that moment, Lan Qinglong really felt like beating Wang Hao up, so frustrated that he jumped around, shouting, "My VR system is all realistic, you know, realistic, do you understand?!"
"Of course," Wang Hao wiped his nose, grinning at him, "So what? You lost, didn’t you? A bet’s a bet. Just tell me whether you’ll modify my car or not."
"Modify? I’ll modify your blockhead!" Lan Qinglong, still fuming, directed the onlookers around him, saying, "Go and roll out my W16 engine!"
People immediately sprang into action, but when Wang Hao saw that W16 engine, he was utterly dumbfounded—
"This thing is so huge?!" Wang Hao’s jaw nearly hit the floor. "How could it possibly fit?!"
No wonder he was so surprised.
The engine in front of him was definitely much larger than he’d expected.
Comparatively, if the Wuling Hongguang’s engine size were a tomato, then this W16 engine was more like a cantaloupe! Even if this thing were smashed into a lump of iron, it still wouldn’t fit into the Wuling Hongguang!
"You just realized?" Lan Qinglong huffed, "Or did you think modifying a car was like playing with blocks, just pulling one piece out and stuffing another in? The engine has to be changed, the gearbox has to be changed, the steering wheel, gear stick, brakes, throttle, and all sorts of messy parts need replacing. Even if I wanted to install this engine in that car of yours, it would definitely be impossible to finish in a day. Stop dreaming."
If it couldn’t be done, why didn’t you say so earlier? What was the point of racing with you? My time is precious, you know?
"You little rascal!" Zi Huang grabbed Lan Qinglong by the ear again, scolding, "If it can’t be changed, what were you fussing about all this time for?! You’re becoming more and more unreasonable!"
"I just find him annoying!" Despite being in pain, Lan Qinglong still shouted, "Who told him to be so close to you! Calling you ’Brother Hao’ all the time! Look at his dumb face, what makes him worthy to be my brother-in-law?!"
"Who said anything about being your brother-in-law!" Now it was Wang Hao’s turn to lose it, "I told you, your sister and I just work in the same crew! I’m a screenwriter; she’s an actress! Can’t you stop jumping to conclusions, what on earth is going on in that head of yours?!"
"Really not?" Lan Qinglong eyed Wang Hao cautiously, "You don’t have any feelings for my sister at all?"
Wang Hao’s head shook like a rattle, "None! Absolutely none!"
"What qualifies you not to like my sister!" Lan Qinglong flared up again, grabbing Wang Hao’s clothes and shaking him vigorously, "My sister is beautiful, gentle, understanding, and can make money, what gives you the right not to like her? Tell me!"
Whether I like her or not, what on earth do you want, man?
