Chapter 38: Combat Prosthetics
Ryan's number is 11, following his number in Speed Racing.
Originally, the No. 11 in the standings could only move one place backwards, and the unlucky guy who was one level lower out of thin air was the No. 12 that An Xin shouted for Mo Fan to kill.
After seeing Ryan, Mo Fan turned his attention to him.
Ryan's "Swift Wind", from the body to all the modules installed, was customized at his own expense.
Perhaps because of his absolute confidence in his custom-made car, on the outside of the "Swift Wind", there are no obvious traces of the installation of the combat module.
On the other hand, most of the other players in the arena are loaded with one or two combat modules.
After climbing one floor, eight were taken to an indoor track.
The transparent rooms they were in opened and each corresponded to a track.
I don't know if it was deliberate, or if it was a coincidence, Ryan happened to be next to Mo Fan and Potter.
Ryan took the initiative to greet him, "I've finally met you, Potter." ”
Potter asked curiously, "Are you looking for me?" ”
"Of course, everyone told me that you were the best driver in Death Speed, so let me finish you out first."
Potter pursed his lips, "I approve of the first half of the sentence, and the second half of the sentence is their private goods." ”
"I was going to play you on the first track, but unfortunately you didn't catch up." Ryan said regretfully.
Potter looked at the countdown projection in front of him and responded:
"The first section of the track is so simple, what is there to compare, who can't accelerate in a straight line, and the fast corner is really fast."
3、2、1、0!
At the moment when the countdown reached zero, eight players rushed out at the same time.
The existence of the Labyrinth Key Challenge was not revealed by the event team before the game, just like the test before obtaining the battle module, which is an unexpected event.
The contestants have no idea about the content of the competition, and can only complete the competition based on experience and on-the-spot adaptability.
The players present have all obtained at least one combat module, and they all understand the dangers in the death labyrinth.
This led them to initially opt for a conservative strategy and move at a moderate pace.
But Ryan and Potter went against the crowd and rushed into the arena at full speed as if it were a normal indoor practice range.
The first few hundred meters of the Key Challenge is a regular course and is not very difficult.
The gap between Warhawk and Swift Wind was too great and was quickly pulled apart.
However, every time the distance between the two was about to be widened, Potter would activate the magnet.
Under the effect of the magnet module, an invisible rope seems to be connected between the two cars, making the "Warhawk" faster than it originally was.
Acceleration was secondary, and when traction was in effect, it forced SWIFT to slow down at the same time, causing Ryan a lot of trouble.
Relying on the magnet every 10 seconds, Mo Fan and Potter were not thrown away at the beginning.
As we progressed, the track became narrower and narrower, from eight lanes to three.
When the merge is repeated, the first level of the Key Challenge appears ahead.
A huge fan wheel appeared in front of the passage, and the three fan-like blades rotated at a uniform speed, and it was necessary to time it right to pass through the space between the blades.
Heavy, pure metal blades, each more than two meters high, rotate with a dull sound of breaking wind.
If you get swept by a fan blade, you don't have to think about it to know what to expect.
Encountering this dangerous level for the first time, Ryan slowed down before reaching the fan, and after a brief hesitation, an acceleration rushed through the blades.
Porter, on the other hand, did not slow down at all, controlling the speed with a 360-degree tail flick, and the car slid diagonally through the interval between the two blades.
When we came to the other side of the blade, the front of the car just turned right and continued to move forward.
Relying on Ryan's hesitation before the first hurdle, Morfan and Potter gained a temporary lead.
When the next few drivers entered the level, they just saw the scene of the two passing through the fan blades from a distance.
Seeing that the two of them passed easily, with almost no hesitation, they felt that the level was not difficult, even if they failed, it was just the extent of hitting the wall.
Thinking that they had figured out the difficulty of the Key Challenge, they stopped waiting and sped up, rushing towards the fan blades.
As soon as they got close to the blades, the riders realized that the blades were heavy, and if they were to take a hit, the consequences would be worse than failing to get the combat module.
In the panic, several drivers subconsciously wanted to slow down.
But they were too close to the fan blades, and it was too late to slow down, and instead messed up the rhythm of passing through the level.
No. 25, which rushed the fastest, was swept by the fan blades in the front of the car, and the body was almost swept off by the fan blades, spinning and flying up and smashing against the wall.
With the experience of No. 25, several drivers behind him have psychological preparation for the fan blades and more room to react.
Except for the first No. 25, only another unlucky egg hit the fan blade and was eliminated.
Potter and Mo Fan didn't know what was going on, and all their attention was focused on the "Swift Wind" next to them.
After the fan blade level, it is not a more difficult challenge, but a relatively gentle buffer zone.
With the brief advantage gained by passing through the fan blades, he was quickly chased back after leaving the level.
The game again fell into passivity.
"Big brother, their car is too fast, I can't hold it."
"Keep driving, and I'll take care of the rest."
Mo Fan lowered the window and said to Ryan, who lowered the window and was blowing the wind:
"You know, this is a race for the Death Ride, the Death Ride is only the second place, and in the Death Ride arena, the core is death."
As he spoke, he pulled out a shotgun and aimed it at Swift Wind.
The reason why the Death Wheel was not used directly was that the "Swift Wind" was modified with almost pure speed, and the body's defense modules were pitiful.
He was afraid that one would not be able to hold back and kill Ryan.
Ryan is not like other drivers, he does not make a living from racing, and the racing team "raises" consumables.
The purpose of those drivers' existence is to make the race more intense and exciting.
As long as the goal is achieved, death is death, and there is no difference between dead and dead dog.
Including Clayton, Valtan and Rolf at the top of the standings, although they are the stars of Death Speed, they still belong to this list, as long as the team wants to, such stars can be packed as much as they want.
But Ryan is different.
He hails from a famous family in the city of Sky Bike, and all he needs to do is express his desire to play in Death Speed, and the race team gives him the green light and allows him to race with a custom-built car.
This is still the case in the race group, let alone the drivers in the race?
The eldest young master of Tianche City, placed in Comet City and Meteor Town, is equivalent to four big characters on his head.
Who dares to touch me!
That is, Ryan is approachable, and if he is replaced by other upper-class people of the same level, let alone attacking each other, even if he is verbally offensive, the automatic law enforcement team will arrive at the scene at the speed of light, and the whole family will be lifted up the things that are not eye-opening.
Therefore, before Mo Fan fired, he reminded him loudly, lest he would be cool on his side, and he would be taken down as soon as he turned around and came out of the playing field.
In the face of Mo Fan's reminder, Ryan seemed to remember something, and raised the window cooperatively.
Bang.
Mo Fan pulled the trigger, and countless steel bullets hit "Swift Wind", and at the same time as the gunfire flickered, a thick aura erupted from "Swift Wind".
The Swift Wind seemed to be wrapped in an invisible barrier, and the bullets bounced off less than 10 centimeters from the body.
Mo Fan frowned and looked at the source of the aura.
I saw that the escort who had been silently sitting in the passenger seat of the "Swift Wind" was facing them with open palms at the moment.
The aura came from the palm of the escort.
It can be used directly as a weapon or armor to participate in combat.
Is this what a militant prosthetic is capable of?
