The first day of the competition ended, and the final rankings were set. However, the audience was still discussing the day's competition. The most discussed topic was not the Wind God, which was in first place, nor was it the favorite to win the championship, the Destroyer. Instead, it was the dark horse that appeared in everyone's eyes, Black Rhino.
The audience really couldn't stop talking about it, mainly because this Black Rhino was too eye-catching on the first day of the competition. It was ranked first with six destroyed cars, and that was not all. The main thing was that two of the cars it destroyed were A-class semi-champion teams.
When it destroyed the Dragon Palace, the camera did not capture it, but it was later confirmed by the competition committee. When it destroyed Beehive, the camera captured the entire process, and all the audience saw it. After the competition ended, all the audience went to a nearby bar, drinking and talking about the day's competition. The topic that they talked about the most was Black Rhino.
"That was a beautiful fight!" Many audience members praised Black Rhino's performance, especially the performance of Black Rhino's firepower driver, Li Huailin. Those who came to watch the competition were naturally people who liked this sport. Seeing such an exciting performance, many people immediately liked this team. Of course, not all of them. Those who bought Dragon Palace and Beehive naturally hated Black Rhino. They were the ones who caused their money to go down the drain. No matter how amazing Black Rhino's performance was, they would not like it.
"Black Rhino's performance this year is really eye-catching. If this continues, will they really win the championship?" a member of the audience said with a smile.
"How is that possible?" Someone immediately said, "Although Black Rhino's performance on the first day of the competition was indeed very eye-catching, it seems a little too early for them to win the championship. There are so many A-class teams in front of them, and they don't seem to be able to handle it. Their car was damaged quite badly against Beehive. I don't know if it can be repaired."
"Indeed, I don't know if Black Rhino has a way to repair such damage. I am really optimistic about this team," the audience member said. "Right, if Black Rhino really wins the championship, then … won't the banker of the casino make a lot of money?"
"Yeah, no one bet on Black Rhino winning the championship. What are the odds?"
"Let me see. There is no Black Rhino's name at all. It should belong to 'another team wins the championship.' The odds are 230 times? F * ck, whoever buys it will make a killing. "
"I'm very optimistic that Black Rhino will win, even though I didn't buy it." A spectator from the next table walked over and said, "For the past 20 years, the championship and even the top ten have been dominated by A-class teams. I really hope to see the 'Miracle of Miladir' from 20 years ago again."
It was not that a C-class team had never won the championship before. More than 20 years ago, in the 151st race, a man named Miladir led a C-class team to win the championship, becoming the only C-class champion in the history of racing. This matter was still talked about by old fans.
"Winning the championship … Not only does he need strength, but he also needs luck. I wonder if Black Rhino can succeed …" Most of the audience said rationally.
"I say, does anyone feel like we've seen that Black Rhino's firepower before …" A human spectator suddenly said.
"Where have you seen it before?" The people around him asked curiously.
"I have a feeling that I've seen this person somewhere before. He should be a very famous person, but I can't remember," the audience member said.
"I can't see him clearly at all, but I also think he looks a little familiar." A human spectator next to him said. It was mainly because the camera was shot from the Griffin Rider, and it was shot from the air. It was still a little far away, so it was really hard to see clearly. Only those who were very familiar with Li Huailin could see it at a glance.
"Right, right. I keep feeling that he looks familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen him before." The audience member began to recall after saying that. "Where exactly have I seen him before?"
"Forget it, don't think about it. Just watch the race. Cheers!" The person next to him immediately handed over a glass of wine.
"That's true …" This person thought about it, but he really couldn't remember, so he gave up.
Just as the audience was enthusiastically discussing Black Rhino, the teams that were resting here were also discussing this dark horse that had made it to the top. After all, the other party had killed two A-class teams, Dragon Palace and Honeycomb. How could they not pay attention to him?
Adigar, the captain of the Destroyer team, had the biggest reaction. After listening to the people in the logistics team's recount of the scene, Adigar knew that Honeycomb had shown their true strength. They had no intention of waterproofing their cars at all. Even so, they were still killed by Black Rhino. This made Adigar a little excited. Yes, it was not fear, but excitement.
Yes, it was not fear, but excitement. The Destroyer had already won the competition three times. To be honest, he was not short of money. Seeking excitement in such a cruel competition was what he wanted. Unfortunately, not all of his team members were like him. Many of them were still fighting for the championship. This was not usually in conflict, because if you wanted to win the championship, defeating your opponents along the way was also very exciting. But this time, he couldn't control himself. He couldn't wait to take the initiative to attack Black Rhino, who was ranked 22nd, just like Beehive. As soon as this idea appeared, it lingered in his mind. Now that the Destroyer was ranked fourth, should he give up this position to look for Black Rhino?
"What's wrong, captain? You look like you've found your target." Just as he was thinking about it, someone walked over from the side. Adigar turned his head and saw that it was their first driver, Marat.
"Is it that obvious?" Adigar said with a smile.
"Yeah, everyone can guess it when they see your eyes." Marat paused and said, "Is it Black Rhino?"
"Yes," Adigar admitted quickly. Adigar quickly admitted, "No matter what, I want to meet them. I really can't control myself."
"I can understand how you feel." Marat nodded. "Now you're wondering if you should take the initiative to look for them."
"Yes." Adigar nodded. "What's your opinion?"
"Hehe … you're the captain. Everyone listens to you. You have to understand this," Marat said.
"I know. It's precisely because I'm the captain that I'm struggling. It's my responsibility to lead everyone to victory. I can't let the team give up this good position just because of my personal preferences …" Adigar sighed. "Forget it. I've thought it through. Forget it."
"Captain, you've really changed a lot. From the hot-blooded young man when you first joined the team, you've become a mature captain. You're really amazing," Marat said. "Don't worry … I think even if we don't look for them, they'll take the initiative to look for us. We don't need to be so anxious."
"Oh?" Adigar was shocked. "You mean, they'll catch up to us?"
"No matter how I look at it, they don't look like they're only in the 22nd place …" Marat said. "Probably tomorrow, they'll make their move."
"Heh, do you really think they want to win the championship?" Adigar asked.
"I bet," Marat said. "Tomorrow, they'll catch up to the first group."
"Okay, I'll believe you this once," Adigar said. "Let's continue to maintain our position and see what happens on the second day. If they're killed by other teams, then it means that they're not strong enough and we don't need to do anything. If they're still here on the second day, then no one can stop me from looking for them on the third day."
"If they survive to the third day, then they'll be our real opponents for the championship. By then, even if you take the initiative to look for them, you'll have a valid reason. Don't worry, captain. Just bear with it for now." Marat patted Adigar's shoulder. "I'll go rest first."
The same thing happened to the other teams. Before the race, they basically didn't study the Black Rhinos team. They really didn't expect such a dark horse to appear. Now, they could only forcibly supplement the team's information.
At this time, the Black Rhinos team encountered trouble.
"58 gold coins? Uncle Peter, are you kidding? "Wen Hana asked in surprise. The price had completely exceeded her expectations.
"This is already the cheapest price. Look at the damage in front of your car. You'll have to replace the armor plates, windows, rearview mirrors, and tires. If not, just replace them. You don't have to replace the armor plates," Peter said.
"No … we still need a Level 1 Defense Circle … It's rare that we have hope this time. I have to ensure that the car is still able to fight. Otherwise, how can I face Master Olad?" Wen Hana said.
"A Level 1 Defense Circle? That's even more expensive. I saw that the price of Defense Circles has been increasing recently. A Level 1 Defense Circle would cost about … 320 gold coins," Peter said after looking at his price list.
"What? 320 gold coins? Why don't you just rob a bank?" Wen Hana said.
"Hey, Little Wen, I don't even have anything to earn. You can't possibly make me suffer a loss for the fuel I used to drive here, right? Look at my purchase price. 300 gold coins. Adding the delivery fee and other costs, I've earned 20 gold coins from you. You can't possibly make me suffer a loss, right?" Peter said as he showed Wen Hana the purchase list.
"This …" Wen Hana frowned. Indeed, the Defense Circle was not cheap. She also knew that she couldn't afford 320 gold coins. Not to mention 320 gold coins, she couldn't even afford 58 gold coins to repair it. After giving it some thought, Wen Hana suddenly made up her mind. "Uncle Peter, change it. Change everything."
"Little Wen, don't scare me. Do you really have that much money?" Uncle Peter immediately asked. He also knew of Wen Hana's financial strength.
"In any case, the payment will be after the race, right?" Wen Hana said. "I'll be able to take it out then."
