Chapter 564: Qualifying Round for the Sun

("Is fate consciously harvesting powerful drivers?" Ginny guessed, "Let more people participate in the World Cup. After all, only the World Cup can really kill drivers completely. Even for drivers who have mastered the power of immortality, the description of surviving is only a possibility.")

("Maybe, but perhaps it is more for the roles of foreign players in the disappeared World Cup." Harry said, "For example, Brett and Joe before, they obviously didn't want to participate in the World Cup, but they also participated under the urging of fate and won third place.")

("Why is it that for heirs like Ron, the older the better?" Ginny continued to ask, "and the eternal protagonists are obviously stronger in newer forms.")

("The performance of the car itself." Harry said , "For the eternal protagonists who have lived from the first era to the present, the performance of their cars is naturally not as good as the advanced mini racing cars of the later era. Their strength lies in themselves.")

("But if they are compared with themselves, the new forms with higher technological content are naturally stronger if the drivers remain unchanged.")

("And the successors are the drivers of the more advanced era of mini racing cars that inherited their [soul fragments].")

("The technology brought by [soul fragments] to transform into car soul skills is naturally not as good as the car soul itself.")

("Relatively speaking, the older the [soul fragments], the more powerful they are.")

Although they were born to the same mother, Ron never thought of these problems.

His concern was completely different. "I was wondering why I hadn't seen Xiaochun participate in the competition. It turns out that she was preparing to participate in the Super Cup National Competition Challenge."

"However, why is it still the National Competition? Wasn't it renamed the World Cup?"

"In the script, Xiaochun also officially participated in the competition in the summer competition preliminaries." Dr. Tsuchiya said, "But her and Qianzi's cars were destroyed by the air cannon of the [Original God of War] team. They didn't run the whole course and couldn't participate in the summer competition."

"As for the name problem, this is the sequelae of the combination of the World Cup and the National Competition after it disappeared."

"There are still preliminaries?" Ron was surprised.

Magneto and the other two were also surprised. Isn't this common sense? What a surprise.

"You don't know?" Dr. Tsuchiya was surprised. "I have put the relevant information on a website that can be seen by those in the know."

"Some information that I think can be made public - such as the fixed rankings and corresponding drivers for the spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons."

"Only two people completed the summer season, Okita Kai in first place and Hoshima Go in second place."

"Is this written into the script?" Magneto asked, "I'm not talking about the rankings, I'm talking about your previous sentence."

"Not necessarily only two people." Dr. Tsuchiya said, "The script will give in to higher-level rules. No matter what the original script is, the top three places in the spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons must be filled."

"So, the summer season also leaves you a glimmer of hope."

"Winter season!" Ron suddenly widened his eyes, "In the script, Ah Cheng is the first place in the winter season, so who are the second and third places? Who took them?"

"He Wang of the Dragon Country team and Ye Li of the German team." Dr. Tsuchiya said.

"What about Haier?" Magneto frowned.

Haier is the captain of the German team and has the nickname of the undefeated myth.

"You will see him in the Super Cup World Series Challenge." Dr. Tsuchiya said, "He only wants to take first place. The ranking of this game is not fixed. But it is only the ranking that is not fixed."

"Will the original top three - Aji, R, Kurosawa and Kondo Gen still be selected?" Katie asked, "Will Kurosawa and Kondo Gen still share one place? Or?"

"Still share one place," Dr. Tsuchiya raised his eyebrows, "Are you going to participate in the World Cup?"

"I personally teach you, not to let you die."

"The World Cup is the grave of the strong."

"No, it's us." Magneto chose to show his cards directly. With Ron, they are destined to be unable to hide their intentions.

"Don't overestimate our strength. If we don't hold the belief of winning, how can we master the immortal power and practice the path of being a driver."

"Is that so." Dr. Tsuchiya said, "But don't underestimate yourself too much. I don't think you will master the immortal power before the Super Cup National Competition Challenge. If I'm not mistaken, Katie, you should have reached the perfect state like Eric."

"And you, Susan, your compatibility with the car has not improved, but your car soul and car soul power have also improved significantly."

"Ron, the worst of the four of you, is not behind in progress."

He didn't say anything more. He thought it would be the best time for him to stop them after the four of them mastered the immortal power.

After all, whether it was the summer season or the autumn season, he didn't think the four of them could enter the top three.

Especially in the autumn season, the rankings were already determined.

[Erlangmaru Special Special] was stabbed in the butt by Hijikata's [Devil Commander] and couldn't be pulled out. Erlangmaru cried non-stop in the second half of the game, and the circle eyes have become a fixed program in every era.

As for the summer season.

They should think about how to survive Okita Kai.

If nothing goes wrong, the third place should belong to Joe.

Last time, Brett got the third place in the spring season.

This time, Brett should help Joe.

[Jumper] is good at cooperation.

As for the last chance - the Super Cup National Competition Challenge.

By then, the four of them should have mastered the immortal power.

He will not allow the four of them to participate in the competition and die.

Magneto, Ron, Katie, and Susan did not know what Dr. Tsuchiya was thinking.

They are all working hard, gritting their teeth, and want to participate in the World Cup.

They all believe that the mission of this world must be inseparable from the World Cup.

As a result, they watched almost all the games before the summer preliminaries mentioned by Dr. Tsuchiya (Ron did not watch the game between Aji and Eagle Feather Dragon).

After a few months, they did determine one thing.

Only Katie and Susan gained something from watching the game.

They have all achieved a true integration of human and vehicle, completely digesting the foreign parts in their bodies.

In their daily lives, they can also vaguely see the chains of fate in the air.

Same as Magneto.

Only Ron was almost standing still.

As for why he used almost, it was because he kept Aji's appearance, and Ron's own car soul power was getting stronger.

He just has not made progress in the integration of man and car, and in his perception of the power of destiny in the outside world.

In this way, the summer preliminaries began.

"What! The qualifiers are running towards the sun?" Ron pointed at the poster, his jaw dropped, "It's 152 million kilometers away. The distance of the track this time is 167 times longer than before! So much change from the spring split to the summer split? No, this is still the summer preliminaries.”

"The poster didn't mention a round trip. Shouldn't the official competition require us to travel across the entire sun?"

He did not mention the temperature of the sun's surface.

He has seen it before, from the [Golden Boy].

He can't forget the feeling of being covered in the pus transformed by the [Golden Boy].

"No." Magneto shook his head, "The power of the car soul to resist the consumption of the solar environment is already an astronomical figure. This is destined that our speed on the sun will not be very fast. Maybe we will only run a few kilometers in the corona."

Their doubts were quickly answered.

A huge projection appeared over the city.

Next to the sun, which appears white in the space environment, there is a silver-white spacecraft rotating around it, and a four-wheel-drive fighter standing on the top of the spacecraft, facing directly into the charged gas and plasma layers.

His mouth opened and closed, and his voice appeared in the city out of thin air.

No, the whole world.

In all areas where humans exist, the images seen and heard are the same.

"The preliminaries event is to start from your respective locations, go up along the runway projected by the spacecraft, and run towards the sun. As for the end point, it is the spaceship, the luxury liner you will take next."

"If it is not completed within 10 minutes, the luxury liner will depart."

("Ten minutes, it takes 8 minutes and 18.5 seconds for light to reach the earth," Klum blinked with interest. "It seems that the summer competition only allows cars that reach the speed of light or even exceed the speed of light to participate.")

(After all, the additional power of the car soul to resist harsh environments will cause the car's speed to decrease.)

(The closer this track is to the end, the spacecraft closer to the sun, the slower the car will be.)

"In other words, we are going to be eliminated in the preliminary round."

"Be careful, don't take a long way around, the spaceship won't wait for you!"

"Also, the World Championship Summer Games will be held within the solar corona!"

"Okay, it's time, are you ready?"

As he finished speaking, countless rays of light fell from the sky, forming a nearly vertical track and falling in front of each player.

"A runway formed by light." Susan gasped.

She glanced at the star Ma Lie who was one kilometer away, and noticed that their cars were all equipped with aluminum alloy armor, which looked extremely heavy.

("What's going on?" Through Susan's sight, Krum noticed [Herald Sonic] and [Victory Charge], "The aluminum alloy armor of [Victory Charge] blocked the tires? This can make the car faster ? It’s the same principle as tying a chain on the wheel hub?”)

"The runway is intermittent." Magneto traced his gaze upwards.

He could see that the car's track was composed of one track, with no runway in the middle, and finally merged outside the earth's atmosphere to form a spacious and light racing track.

He probably understood why the four-wheel drive warrior emphasized not to accidentally take long detours.

"There was almost no suppression this time." Ron did not sense the familiar power of the four-wheel drive fighter from the track. "Is it because the track itself is long enough and the environment is harsh enough?"

"This track~" Katie observed the blue light that made up the track.

She found that its properties were somewhat close to the power of the car soul.

Artificial car soul power?

Her mind flashed to the room where Dr. Dashen kept racing car parts.

Among them is a motor that can supplement the power of the car soul to a certain extent.

For a moment, she was a little depressed because the [Great Destruction] was coming and she could not transform further.

"Count down five seconds, four, three, two, one, start!"

The second after the four-wheel-drive fighter finished speaking.

Countless streams of light rushed to the sky.

(In the eyes of most ordinary viewers, all they can see are streaks of light.)

(At the speed of light, everything around you is blurred, and all kinds of magnificent and wonderful colors are mixed together, like an incomprehensible mess painted by surrealism.)

(But soon, with the adjustment of the power of the car soul, the perspectives of the four warriors began to clearly show everything around them.)

(The brilliant starry sky appears in the picture again.)

(One by one, the cars leave their individual tracks and converge on the spacious racing track that leads directly to the spaceship.)

At the moment, all the drivers have not used offensive car soul skills, as if they are worried that this will affect the time to reach the finish line, and they are all rushing forward.

In the front is Fujiyoshi's new car [Speedy Cobra].

Behind is Xiao Lie's [Pioneer Sonic] with aluminum alloy armor.

Behind are Ying Yulong and Jiromaru's [Triangle Arrow] and [Jiromaru Special].

Then there is the second team of cars where Magneto and others are waiting.

Xiao Chun's [Off-road Home Run], Chizi's [Flower Axe].

Magneto and his four people.

Kurosawa's [Black God of War].

Okita Kai's [Spider King].

Brett and Joe's [Leaper 1] [Leaper 3].

All in the second team.

"I'm actually ahead of [Victory Charge]!" Ron looked behind him from time to time, and was a little flattered for a while.

The last one is Xiao Hao's [Victory Charge].

"Ron, you idiot." Magneto, who had already transformed into a racing man and whose heartbeat had become the sound of the engine and the car, complained.

He looked at [Spider King] and Okita Kai next to him with caution.

He seemed to have felt that a sharp blade was approaching his throat, and even the armor transformed from the car shell could not protect him.

Katie and Susan also sensed the danger.

They felt that a beast seemed to be staring at their throats, ready to bite.

Even though Venus, which looked like a bead carved with gilding craftsmanship and a fine work of art, appeared in their field of vision, they had no time to appreciate it.

They probably understood why the competition was so harmonious today.

They were all afraid that Okita Kai would be the first to target him.

Fortunately, Okita Kai was not prepared to take action in the preliminaries.

Even though he could take action against non-scripted characters during this period of blank script.

After [Triangle Arrow] surpassed [Pioneer Sonic] and competed with [Speedy Cobra] for the first place, [Spider King] flashed by and won the first place.

"Huh~" Magneto just relaxed.

He heard the voice of the four-wheel drive fighter in the vacuum, "Oh no, the track suddenly faced a meteor shower. Are the contestants okay?"

"Yes!" Ron muttered.

He had no time to use the energy cannon to accelerate now, and he used it all to ignore the impact and high temperature brought by the meteor.

Especially the [Flower Axe] of Qianzi and [Off-road Home Run] of Xiaochun in front of him, these two cars, which emitted a terrifying air pressure, were actually eliminated because of the meteor.

This brought him great pressure.

"There is no sudden rainstorm, the air cannon of the [Original God of War] Legion, so there is a meteor shower, right." Katie in front also noticed the two people behind her leaving the stage.

But it is obvious that she is not as ignorant as Ron, and knows nothing about the details of the script.

"The next one to be eliminated is" Katie looked at the meteor group that obviously carried a strong force of destiny.

"Without the three members of the [Black God of War] Legion leaving the stage, do we have to take away a large number of cars to offset it?"

Katie immediately slowed down.

She tried her best to blend herself into the surrounding space.
