Chapter 242: Tai Chi War Dragon Demonstrates Its Might
The Wind Chasing Tiger and the Giant Wave Shark did not do nothing while waiting for the Tai Chi War Dragon, but silently accumulated energy using energy titanium steel sheets.

Now, as Tai Chi War Dragon returned to the team, the energy accumulated in the two cars began to be released.

The Wind Chasing Tiger leads the way, locking onto the central axis of the track, while the Wave Shark provides it with a constant supply of power with wave-like airflow.

The combined speed of the three cars increased rapidly, and in the blink of an eye they overtook the American team.

Having been overtaken by another team, Hama and Miller could no longer sit still. They quickly called for help from the control room: "Control room! How much time do we have left to get to the top spot?"

"The team now in first place is the Victory Team. You currently have a time difference of 27 seconds with them." Joe, who had been staring at the data detected by the satellite, replied.

"Damn it, we're already so far behind just after we set out?" Miller gritted his teeth.

"Joe, check the road conditions ahead," Hama said.

"The road conditions ahead are all normal, Hama, what are you going to do?" Joe asked.

"Let's use a powerful propulsion device, at least to make up for some of the time difference." Hama said.

"I think so," Miller agreed. Less than 10 minutes after the start, they had gone from second place yesterday to fifth place. They couldn't continue like this.

"Hama, the acceleration efficiency of the thrusters will be very low on uphill sections, and it's a curve now. Are you sure you want to do this?" Edge reminded.

"This..." After hearing what Edge said, Hama also became hesitant, repeatedly thinking in his mind whether it was worth it to start the thrusters now.

He hesitated for half a minute, and the Spanish team behind them was about to catch up with them.

In today's match, Casillas and Kurosawa set a tone before the game, that is, to take a gamble. Judging from the time difference at the end of their first day of competition, if all teams played their trump cards in the second game and then played conservatively, they would completely lose hope of winning the championship without waiting until the third game. Therefore, they placed all their hopes on Kondo Gen, who was most likely to explode. What Kurosawa had to do now was to cooperate with another teammate and try every means to let Kondo Gen reach the top of the mountain with the lowest power loss.

Therefore, after the start, Torres ignored the energy consumption and accelerated Kurosawa and Kondo Gen in an extremely inefficient but fast power mode.

But even so, it can only ensure that the time gap with the first echelon will not be further widened.

However, the way they rushed forward now became the last straw that broke the camel's back for Hama and Miller.

"Let's use a powerful propulsion device! Aggie, you go first!" Hama gritted his teeth.

"Okay." Edge nodded, "Powerful propulsion device! Start!"

The three jumpers are just beginning to break out, but on this complex track with many bends, Edge doesn't dare to let the thrusters go at full power without scruples. In addition, because of the uphill slope, it is difficult to increase the acceleration efficiency of the thrusters. So, after Edge's thrust, they just managed to keep the Spanish team from catching up, but failed to make up for any time difference with the team in front.

But now Hama had no choice but to continue. After Edge finished the propulsion, Hama also started his own powerful propulsion device.

"The leading team has already run halfway up the uphill section. The three-man battle between the Victory Team and the Italian Team is very intense." The four-wheel drive fighter on the helicopter stared at the track closely. "Not far behind, the German Iron Wolf Team and the Chinese War Dragon Team are also chasing at a very fast speed."

"Hugh, switch formation." Michael said, and the combined airflow of him and Hugh's Iron Wolf was solved. Adolf's car filled Hugh's position and entered the combined airflow mode again with Michael's Iron Wolf.

"The German team's tactics seem to be very clear." Lin Yuan in the studio said after seeing this scene, "The two cars alternately assist Michael's captain car, but with this kind of running, it seems that the other two will have a hard time completing today's race. It seems that the German team has placed all their hopes on their captain."

"After the three cars of the Huaxia War Dragon team joined together, they were moving very fast, and the time gap with the currently leading Italian team and Victory team was also rapidly narrowing."

Soon, the German Iron Wolf team and the Chinese War Dragon team caught up with the two leading teams almost at the same time.

After catching up with them, the German and Chinese teams stopped accelerating at the same time.

The energy stored in the energy titanium steel plates of the Big Wave Shark and the Wind Chaser Tiger has been completely used up. It seems that the German team will find it difficult to maintain that high speed for a long time. The four leading teams are driving side by side at a speed that is not much different.

"Are you all planning to exert more effort on the downhill slope later?" Lin Che was the first to break the silence and asked.

"Isn't this also your plan?" Michael said as he glanced at the Tai Chi War Dragon, which was located between the Wind Chasing Tiger and the Giant Wave Shark and had used almost no power except for chasing the teammates who set out first at the beginning.

"The speed of the four teams in the leading group has now stabilized. It seems that no one intends to decide the winner in this uphill section." The four-wheel drive fighter said after seeing the current situation of the game, and then turned his attention to the rear.

"After a whole round of acceleration, the American team finally closed the gap with the team in front. However, at this time, they all stopped to replace the second set of batteries. Will they really not affect the next game by working so hard on this uphill slope where the acceleration efficiency is not very high?" said the four-wheel drive fighter.

"After changing the battery, Aggie, if you give it another burst, we should be able to reach the top of the mountain." Hama thought, "In the next downhill stage, we should play it safe. I don't think they will accelerate at full speed on such a dangerous track. Then, we can catch up in the last 1.5 kilometers of the straight line."

However, just as he made his plan, thick fog in the mountains slowly rose up.

"Control room?" Hama and Miller couldn't help but panic as they looked at the increasingly low visibility on the road ahead.

"Control room? Control room?" After a long time without a response, Hama became completely panicked.

"Wait a minute, Hama, because of the heavy fog, the satellite can't detect the road conditions ahead!" Joe said.

"This...how could this happen?" Hama's mind was a mess at this moment. It was bad enough that the external brain was gone, but now even the control room was on strike?

"Keep calm, Hama!" Brett, who was repairing the car nearby, quickly joined the team chat. "We are not the only ones affected by the fog! When everyone has to slow down because of the fog and actively lower their own upper limits, we will be at an advantage!"

"Captain, what should we do?" Miller asked when he saw Brett finally spoke. "Just run at the current pace!" Brett said.

"Understood...understood." Hama and Miller nodded.

……

Looking at the increasingly thick fog, Lin Che couldn't help but smile and said, "This game is becoming more and more interesting."

"Thick fog is starting to rise on the field. What impact will this sudden situation have on the game?" The four-wheel drive fighter on the helicopter also spoke up when he saw this.

"The leading team has reached the top of the mountain! Gao Xiaoman and Chen Xiaohu of the Huaxia War Dragon team stopped their cars and started to replace new batteries. Adolf and Hughie of the German team also stopped, but Taiji War Dragon and Michael's Iron Wolf No. 1 continued to sprint forward non-stop." The four-wheel drive fighter said as he looked at the rest area at the top of the mountain. "The Victory Team and the Italian Team stopped at the same time to repair, and both teams also moved out their tool boxes."

When Lin Che passed by a rest area on the side of the road, he picked up two bottles of water and threw one to Michael.

"Thank you." Michael took the water, tilted his head back, took a sip, and then poured the remaining water over his head.

The same was true for Lin Che. After being poured with cold water, his head felt extremely clear.

The next moment, after the Iron Wolf and Tai Chi War Dragon rushed down the slope, their eyes fixed at the same time.

"Go! Tai Chi Fighting Dragon!"

"Let's go! Iron Wolf!"

The souls of the cars behind the two men appeared at the same time, and the old rivals became extremely jealous when they met.

The illusory roar of dragons and the roar of huge waves resounded throughout the valley. As the speed increased, the heartbeats of the two people gradually synchronized with the roar of the motor.

"This... aren't they slowing down?" The four-wheel-drive fighter was startled by the way the two ran. However, the next moment, the three Mustangs of the Italian team also rushed downhill at a similar speed after replacing the batteries, and the three cars of the Victory Team followed closely behind.

“After a short break, the Italian team and the Victory team also set off. At this moment, the time difference between them and Lin Che and Michael is about 9 seconds.”

"Wow! Aren't contestants Lin Che and Michael planning to slow down?" In the CCTV studio, several commentators couldn't help but exclaimed when they saw the speed of Lin Che and Michael at this time.

"They are both about to enter the corner. It's too risky to enter the corner at this speed on a downhill road like this!" Han Qiao couldn't help but say.

"Go, Tai Chi War Dragon!" The moment Tai Chi War Dragon entered the corner, Lin Che shouted loudly, and the turbo fans under the wings of Tai Chi War Dragon began to run. The whole car entered a wonderful balance and flew through the corner without slowing down along the inner lane.

Michael's Iron Wolf was not far behind. After entering the curve, the Iron Wolf's pneumatic components were running at full speed at this moment, constantly adjusting the airflow around the Iron Wolf, trying to keep up with the pace of the Tai Chi War Dragon.

However, after the two cars came out of the corner, Michael's Iron Wolf fell behind by 1/4 of a body length!

"We won! In the competition on this curve, Tai Chi War Dragon defeated Iron Wolf!" Coach Zhang said excitedly.

"What?" Michael showed an expression of disbelief. Although he had overestimated the Tai Chi War Dragon, the overload operation of the pneumatic components of the Iron Wolf when it was turning had briefly exceeded the limit of the chip. But even so, it was still overwhelmed by the Tai Chi War Dragon for a distance.

Michael gritted his teeth and turned on the turbocharger, intending to catch up on the short straight line after passing. However, the Tai Chi War Dragon also unleashed its thrusters at this time, and turbulent airflow gushed out. The speed of the Tai Chi War Dragon increased explosively again, widening the distance a little again.

The next bend was reached in a flash. The Tai Chi War Dragon flexibly switched its form and flew close to the ground before passing the bend again.

But this time, even though Michael tried his best, he could only watch as the Tai Chi War Dragon completely threw him away.

At this time, after replacing new batteries, the Italian team and the Victory team, which were accelerating in a group formation, also caught up with Michael.

Both teams also used the method of turning without slowing down.

The Victory Team maintained a formation with the Viper on the outermost side, the Evolver in the middle, and the Sonic on the inner lane. The Evolver wrapped the cars on both sides with a dolphin air film. The Viper with the strongest torque resisted the centrifugal force, while the Sonic used the airflow to accelerate.

Over on the Italian team's side, seemingly chaotic airflow began to appear around the three cars lined up in a row. At the same time, the rear wheels of the three Mustangs began to move in a special rhythm, while maintaining acceleration as they rushed through the bend in front of them.

After the two teams caught up with Michael, they did not stop for too long. The advantage brought by replacing the new batteries made their acceleration even faster, and it didn't take much effort for them to overtake the German team.

After overtaking Michael, the two teams chased Lin Che aggressively. Lin Che smiled slightly. This time he had to face six cars at once. However, this was still under Lin Che's control. Before the race, Lin Che had made preparations for a one-on-many fight.

The first to challenge Tai Chi War Dragon were the Italian team. Ferrari's latest aerodynamic components allowed them to take the corners without slowing down. On the straight line before the curve, Sally and Xiu successively increased the output of airflow to create a brief opportunity for Carlo to overtake. With the help of his teammates, Carlo's Mustang entered the curve behind Tai Chi War Dragon at a speed almost on the verge of losing control.

"The inner cornering line is locked, so let's try this." The Mustang extended the acceleration time, and just before it was about to fly off the track, the rear wheel turned suddenly and rushed into the corner along the outer lane. At the same time, Carlo, who had already entered a state of unity between man and car, roared with the scarlet blood wolf behind him, and sprinted towards the silver dragon.

"Does Carlo plan to overtake on the outside lane? However, if he fails, he won't even have time to make amends!" The four-wheel drive fighter held his breath and watched the scene intently.

Although the new teammates have changed Carlo a lot, those who have crawled out of hell will never lack the courage to fight for their lives.

"It's a very good sprint, but it's not enough!" Lin Che laughed. Both cars were turning at speeds close to the limit, but the advantage of Tai Chi War Dragon as a high-speed car with a faster maximum speed was fully demonstrated at this moment. Tai Chi War Dragon passed the corner first, and then the gap was once again magnified by the thrusters.

At this moment, the Tai Chi War Dragon displayed its true invincibility.
