Chapter 21: The Chase
As the saying goes, there is no three, two, three, how dare you go to Liangshan.
The reason why Li Ran was so unscrupulous and even took the initiative to provoke Tony was naturally to rely on it.
[E-level card - baby]
[Skill: Tinnitus, Stunt Racing]
[Background: "Baby" was born in a car accident when his parents died when he was young, and he himself suffered from tinnitus and had to rely on the music in his headphones to control the rhythm of driving.] Just above the steering wheel, he began driving for the Atlanta mob and paying off his debts with his work. 】
As mentioned before, there are strong and weak cards even among the same level, although the E-level character cards drawn in the [Wood Chest] are generally just ordinary characters, and it is not of much help to Li Ran's current situation. However, under the big waves, there will always be a few relatively useful cards.
For example, the character card [Baby] in Li Ran's hand, although it is still in the category of E-level cards, but the skill it has is exactly what Li Ran needs, in a sense, in some specific environments, the existence of some E-level cards with special skills may be more useful than D-level cards, and can play a better effect.
Of course, this is only a special case within a special case.
In fact, most of the E-rank cards in Li Ran's hands, such as the character cards of [Nohara Hiroshi] and others, have no other use at all except for letting him complain.
……
Li Ran drove Tony's car past an intersection on Second Avenue.
I deliberately lowered my speed and waited in place for a few minutes.
Immediately after, there was a loud roar.
Li Ran saw through the rearview mirror that a striking red sports car behind the car was speeding towards his direction at a speed of more than 100 per second.
Needless to say, just based on the menacing appearance of this sports car, Li Ran can determine that the one who is sitting in the car and driving is definitely the future Iron Man - Tony Stark.
Obviously, Tony was angered by Li Ran's previous series of operations.
Driving a red sports car to stop beside Li Ran, Tony lowered the window, revealing his trademark mustachioed face, looked at the blurred figure in the driver's seat of the car on the side, and said mockingly: "What a coincidence, this is not our Mr. Thief?" Why did you suddenly stop here, do you need to wait for me to give you the money for gas? Or, you can use a magic trick to get the money out of my pocket, as you did before......"
"I stopped, just to wait for you, Tony, lest someone excuse me when I lost and it wasn't fair." The voice coming through the window was a little distorted, but the content of the words still upset Tony.
"Ha," he raised his eyebrows and interrupted Li Ran's next words, "I'm sorry, Mr. Thief, can you repeat what you just said?" I, Tony Stark, am going to cheat?! ”
"I'm just saying a possibility."
Ignoring Tony's chattering questions on the other side, Li Ran stepped on the accelerator under his feet, and with a roar of the motor, the next moment the whole person had rushed out like an arrow from the string.
"Besides, red looks like a good match for you, Tony."
At the intersection, Tony only vaguely heard the other party leave this sentence.
"In fact, I still go well with the colors." Subconsciously replied, Tony turned his head to look at the figure of the car disappearing rapidly, and then lowered his head and shouted into his mobile phone: "Jarvis, immediately show the location of the car, and the shortest distance that can intercept the other party." ”
"Yes, sir."
In accordance with Tony's orders, Jarvis quickly marked the information of the surrounding roads and the route, and did not forget to add: "But sir, what you did was against the previous fair words. ”
"I know." Driving the sports car to change direction according to the route given by Jarvis, Tony immediately replied: "But from the beginning, my goal was not this, catching the thief who stole the car was my real goal." ”
"But I still think, sir, it's just your excuse."
"Jarvis."
"Yes, sir."
"You know too much."
"But it's all your program, sir."
……
With the stunt racing skills from [Baby], Li Ran shuttled freely through the traffic of New York.
At this moment, Li Ran felt that the vehicles around him no longer seemed to be an obstacle to his progress, but instead became a kind of help for himself, allowing him to better intersperse and hide in it.
If there is a fly in the ointment, it is the constant whispering in the ears.
According to the introduction of the system, this seems to be the passive skill that comes with the [Baby] character, and it is also the second character card with side effect skills that Li Ran has been exposed to since [Nohara Hiroshi].
Simply, according to the introduction, Li Ran had already prepared a way to deal with this side effect.
Wearing headphones, impassioned music sounded in his ears, and the next moment Li Ran felt like a car god possessed, as if every turn of the steering wheel in his hand and the accelerator pedal were rhythmic.
Feelings, this is the complete body of the [baby] role.
Li Ran thoughtfully drove the car through the opposite traffic, and at the same time, he did not forget to observe the surrounding situation.
Although, since just now, he didn't notice the shadow of Tony and the riotous red sports car he was driving, but Li Ran didn't think that Iron Man was a person who gave up so easily.
Sure enough, the next moment, just as Li Ran was driving the vehicle through a traffic light intersection, he saw a red sports car appear in front of him.
"Got you, Mr. Thief!"
In the sports car, Tony looked at the familiar car opposite and couldn't help but whisper.
"Not necessarily." Li Ran raised his head, looked at Tony's confident appearance in the sports car, and couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and whispered a reply.
Immediately afterwards, I saw him slamming on the brakes under his feet, changing gears sharply, turning the steering wheel, and the narrow space of the driver's seat did not affect Li Ran at all. After a set of smooth operations, he suddenly changed the direction of the vehicle that was originally driving in the direction of Tony, and drifted with an experienced turn, in front of Tony on the opposite side, Shi Shiran drove into another entrance next to him.
[Legend from Tony Stark +70]
"Sir, it seems that your plan has failed, and the other party has shown far more skill than you."
"I don't need you to say it, I saw it too." After a brief moment of shock, Tony came to his senses.
Hurriedly drove the sports car towards the next intersection, although Li Ran's driving skills were far beyond his imagination, but with Jarvis's advantage, he didn't think he would fail so easily.
"After all, the night is still long, Mr. Thief."
