Chapter 140: Chapter 139: Crash Into It

"Lin Tian, you finally made it. I thought you were scared and dared not show up," Bai Yuze said with a smile, feeling good today.

The reason was twofold: his family had outbid Lin Tian for the second batch of raw jadeite, and he could look forward to Lin Tian making a fool of himself tonight. What Bai Yuze wanted most was to see Lin Tian crash out of the race track with his car, whether dead or alive, he wasn’t going to concern himself with that.

In his opinion, it would be best to force Lin Tian off the track as payback for his grudge.

"Good evening, Little Bai. If you dare to come, why wouldn’t I? Cut the crap and let’s start," Lin Tian didn’t want to waste words. The nickname ’Little Bai’ irked Bai Yuze, but he managed to suppress his anger.

"No rush, there are some things we need to make clear. The entire race will be broadcast live with a remote-controlled aerial camera, and the real-time footage will be transmitted to the computers here and then projected for everyone to see. This way, it’s fair and square, and there will be no disputes over who loses or wins," Bai Yuze was fully prepared, even bringing projectors, sound systems, computers, and power supplies to the site.

Yet, that was a minor detail, much like street dancers dragging their top-notch sound systems to the performance venue.

"Mr. Yuze, thank you for your assistance," Futian Shenyi nodded his thanks, then turned to Lin Tian and said, "If you lose, you and your friends must apologize to me in public."

"We’ll talk about that when you win. If you lose, you’ll have to apologize all the same. Here’s another rule, if there is any injury or death during the race, it’s down to a lack of skill, and no responsibility can be pursued," Lin Tian’s eyes narrowed slightly, emitting a dangerous glint.

"Of course!" Bai Yuze readily agreed.

"Alright, kill that little Japanese! Kill the second-class ghost!" Neutral spectators and Ou Mengmeng’s friends shouted loudly, making Bai Yuze and his group feel awkward. People like Sun Decai and Bai Yufeng, with thinner skins, quietly stepped back a few paces as if to avoid being seen by others.

The race hadn’t even started, and the crowd could already smell blood. They were fearless youngsters, and such blunt confrontations ignited the fire in their hearts.

"Lin Tian, you have to do your best. I’ve placed a bet against that Japanese guy. If I lose, I have to pay 30 million RMB. If he loses, that Bugatti Veyron will be mine," Ou Mengmeng clenched her little fists and said fiercely.

Zhou Botong pulled Ou Mengmeng aside. He wanted to tell Lin Tian that if he really couldn’t outrun the opposition, he shouldn’t force it and risk injury. But then he thought that some things are more important than life itself. He was also going to support Lin Tian in the race, so telling him to back down was out of the question. Even if it took all his might, he intended to fight for the win.

In the end, Zhou Botong patted Lin Tian on the shoulder and said, "Be careful!"

The race was about to start with ten sports cars lined up at the starting line, including the cars of Bai Yuze’s pair, Lin Tian’s, and others from the so-called "car-racing clans" who loved the thrill and risk of racing.

Four remote-controlled drones with ultra-high-definition cameras took off, to be controlled from a car trailing behind, capturing 360-degree footage of the entire event.

A curvaceous lady holding a red cloth walked to the starting line, and the cars revved their engines simultaneously, producing a deafening roar that thrilled every spectator. As soon as the red cloth left the lady’s hand and drifted to the ground, the sports cars shot off like arrows from bows, racing away at lightning speed.

The cars accelerated, kicked up a gust of wind, and lifted the lady’s mini skirt, revealing her lace panties underneath. In no time, the cars disappeared into the night, all but one that was still idle at the starting line.

"Lin Tian, why aren’t you moving? Hurry up and go!" Ou Mengmeng yelled anxiously from behind.

What’s the hurry? Mountain roads rely on skills, not just speed," Lin Tian said nonchalantly, curling his lips. After admiring the girl’s long legs for a moment, he shifted gears and sped away, eventually vanishing from the square at an even greater speed.

"Holy crap, that last car has a death wish or what, speeding like that!"

"Probably just slow to react, trying to catch up, I guess."

A group of spectators, unaware of the truth, started discussing.

After Lin Tian raced off, he extended his X-ray vision forward, seeing the road ahead crystal clear. Given his ability to see in the dark, it didn’t matter even if he didn’t turn on the headlights, but now, using X-ray vision to monitor the road made it million times better than any GPS navigator.

His car swam through the road like a fish in water, swiftly moving ahead. When he encountered curves, he would slightly slow down, quickly maneuver the steering wheel, and his car would fishtail through.

This scene, captured by the overhead tracking shot, was broadcasted to the square, leaving everyone watching Lin Tian’s almost divine driving skills stunned.

He maintained high speed while those ahead were inhibited by the darkness of the night. Even with their infrared imaging devices, their speed was constrained. It wasn’t long before Lin Tian caught up with the last car and then overtook one after another before they could react, advancing to the front.

"Brother Botong, I’m right behind you," Lin Tian said casually, controlling the steering wheel with ease as he phoned Zhou Botong.

"Brother Lin, what were you doing just now, why did you start so late? Now Bai Yuze and the Japanese are ahead of us," Zhou Botong sounded quite frustrated.

He had tried to overtake several times, but the lane could only fit three cars side by side, and the Bugatti Veyron along with Bai Yuze’s car had taken up most of the road. He couldn’t get ahead, and the performance of his Maybach was simply no match for the Bugatti Veyron. Futian Shenyi was also skilled and kept his car firmly blocking, not letting any other cars pass.

"Hehe, well, they’re driving a Bugatti Veyron, normal for them to be at the front. But just watch how I’ll overtake them. You block the others from behind, don’t let them mess with us," Lin Tian chuckled and pressed the gas pedal to speed past Zhou Botong.

After overtaking, the foremost cars were now Lin Tian’s trio, Bai Yuze, and Futian Shenyi. They wouldn’t give an inch and deliberately slowed down when they saw Lin Tian’s car approaching, as if provoking him.

A tiger doesn’t show off its might and you two think I’m a sick cat, Lin Tian smirked coldly, completely disregarding the fact that this was a mountain road, and floored the gas pedal, aiming to collide with the Bugatti.

Ou Mengmeng, who had been watching the projection, saw the imminent crash and excitedly jumped up, shouting, "Lin Tian, do it, crash into it!"

Her enthusiasm was even more intense than those who were driving. However, Li Xiaoxiao beside her whispered, "Sister Mengmeng, if that Lin Tian wins, the Bugatti Veyron is yours. What if it gets wrecked?"

"This..." Ou Mengmeng was momentarily at a loss for words, but she quickly recovered and waved her hand, saying, "Whatever, we’ll deal with it if it gets wrecked."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Lin Tian slammed the gas pedal and crashed violently into the back of the Veyron. A loud "bang" startled everyone, and the shocked Futian Shenyi quickly grabbed the steering wheel, afraid that the car would twist off the road and fly down the slope. Then, he cursed fluently in his distress.

Bai Yuze also wound down his window and yelled, "Lin Tian, you’re only fit to eat our dust. If you dare, come crash into me! You see, after the last U-turn, it’s the finish line. What will you use to beat us, haha, then I’ll have you kneel and apologize, hahaha..."
