Beyblade: You call this a four-wheel drive vehicle?

Chapter 257 Qualifying Round

The memories of the dead began to attack Xiao Hao and Huo Yuesheng. At the same time, Nie Ming's behavior of driving the car in front of the opponent's maintenance area also made the nearby media feel the taste of news, so they all came over.

Seeing this, Xiao Hao and Huo Yuesheng turned around and left in tacit understanding.

"Xiao Hao, it will be your turn soon. Let's go check the status of the charge together."

"That's right, this is the Charge's first appearance, so nothing can go wrong."

The two of them sang the same tune and left Nie Ming there.

"Hey! You two!" Nie Ming in the car shouted dissatisfiedly, but Xiao Hao and Huo Yuesheng just left without looking back.

In the studio of Five Star Sports, the domestic broadcaster of this race and China's most professional racing broadcasting media, Li Bing laughed out loud when he saw this scene.

At this time, the other two commentators looked at him curiously, as if asking him why he was laughing.

Because they were not in the CCTV studio, Li Bing had fewer concerns and directly said the slogans that the three people had used.

"This kid must have had a hard time these past few years." Brother Ran glanced at Huo Yuesheng in the camera and said with some sympathy.

As the warm-up race progressed, the CF cars and drivers of each team appeared one after another.

Among them, there are famous drivers who have made their mark in the F1 field, as well as many new faces who have taken off with the east wind of the new era.

"The Ferrari team is here, and the lap times in the warm-up race are very fast. It seems that after entering the era of CF racing, the teams with strong technical accumulation in the past also have a great advantage." Ran Ge said, "After completing the warm-up lap, Ferrari's No. 2 car also drove to the DRS pit area."

After the cockpit of the fiery red Ferrari Pegasus was opened, Okita Kai also took off his helmet and greeted Eagle Feather Dragon in the safety car.

Not long after, Mercedes-AMG's No. 2 car also arrived in front of the DRS maintenance area, and Hijikata Ling also met Chong Tianhai who had not left yet.

"Haha, the DRS team has really good popularity. Many drivers come over to say hello after completing the warm-up lap." Ran Ge laughed when he saw this scene in the studio of Five Star Sports.

"Because CF racing requires cooperation between drivers and AI, many former WGP players have joined this competition. They are old rivals of the two main drivers of DRS." said Li Bing.

"It's the turn of DRS warm-up, and Taiji War Dragon has entered the track." Li Bing said, "Half a year ago at the F1 Neon Station, Lin Che and this car's performance must have left a very deep impression on everyone. So this time, will they continue their magic?"

After Lin Che drove the Tai Chi War Dragon onto the track, he drove a lap safely and then returned to the maintenance station.

"It seems that Lin Che has no intention of exerting his full strength in the warm-up race. If we want to see the performance of this car, we may have to wait until tomorrow's qualifying race." Li Bing was a little disappointed, mainly because after such a long wait, Lin Che chose a safe way of running.

"The next car to come on stage is DRS's No. 2 car, wow!" When Xiao Hao drove the Charge onto the track, Li Bing and the audience at the scene couldn't help but exclaim.

Although Xiao Hao used four bikes in his WGP career, namely, Tornado Charge, Leap Charge, Lightning Charge and Bison Charge, but in terms of popularity among the audience, the Tornado Charge, which was his first bike when he stepped into the international arena, is the most popular.

Now, an almost fully enlarged version of the Whirlwind Charge stepped onto the field, and these spectators had almost all watched the first two WGPs, so naturally they cheered.

Xiao Hao was very considerate and stepped on the accelerator at the beginning, completing a warm-up lap at a speed faster than any other driver who had appeared before.

"This car is really fast!" Li Bing exclaimed.

Soon, twenty cars and drivers from ten teams made their debut. Even though most of these new CF cars ran at a slow speed, they still outperformed many F1 cars. Naturally, racing fans all over the world began to look forward to the qualifying session on the second day and the race on Sunday.

After finishing the media conference, the team manager Fujiyoshi and technical director Xiaolie returned to the hotel with tired faces. As their two drivers did not attend the conference, they were naturally besieged by the media.

Lin Che was too lazy to go, but Xiao Hao had originally planned to go. Naturally, with his attention-seeking personality, he would not miss this opportunity. However, Huo Yuesheng only took one sentence to make him give up the idea of ​​going for the interview.

"Just now, Nie Ming came looking for us, but we ran away and the media didn't interview us. What if you went to the press conference and someone asked about it? They could dig up all our dark history!"

Like Huo Yuesheng, Xiao Hao, who was also ridiculed for his careless remarks in childhood, immediately gave up the idea of ​​going to the interview and stayed in the hotel obediently to discuss the arrangements for tomorrow's qualifying round.

"In tomorrow's qualifying race, the pole position will definitely be mine!" Xiao Hao said confidently.

"Judging from today's warm-up race, Xiao Hao does have the ability to compete for pole position. So, what about you, A Che?" J asked.

"As for me, maybe Q2?" Lin Che said uncertainly. Ever since he accidentally entered the Zero Realm last time, every time he trained, as long as the speed of the Tai Chi War Dragon exceeded 400, he would involuntarily enter that realm.

Lin Che was not as resistant to entering the Zero Realm as Kaga, but the physical strain of the Zero Realm was still too great for him now.

Even though he had stepped up his physical training after his first coma, he could only maintain that state for about three seconds at most now. Moreover, after entering that state, his spirit would be depressed for a period of time and it would take about a week to recover.

Therefore, the Zero Realm is currently a special burden for Lin Che, in addition to being a trump card.

Because Lin Che is currently unable to choose whether to enter this state, this state that other racers have not yet touched the threshold, for him it is like there is no door closed at all, as long as the speed reaches it, he will enter naturally, without any chance to refuse. However, if Lin Che wants to compete for the pole position, then the speed and instantaneous acceleration can be said to be bound to reach the threshold of entering the zero realm. It would be funny if he got the pole position but could not compete in the race!

"Is it because of that magical state you mentioned?" Gao Xiaoman frowned and said, "But, in normal training, Xiaohao's speed is faster than yours, but he doesn't show any signs of entering the state you mentioned."

If Lin Che's strength had not indeed increased significantly after entering that state, and if he had not been able to surpass Xiao Hao within two seconds during the test, and perform some running methods that even AI simulation could not guarantee 100% completion, they would really think that Lin Che was hallucinating.

“I don’t know why.” Lin Che shook his head. “Maybe it’s because I entered this state when I was 11 years old, so the threshold is much lower than that of Xiao Hao.”

"11 years old?" Chen Hewang asked curiously, "Is that when we participated in the first WGP together? Which competition was it?"

"In the final, I was facing the double tornado of Xiao Hao and Xiao Lie." Lin Che explained.

“So you were already in that state at that time?” After hearing Lin Che’s words, Xiao Hao also recalled, “No wonder I remember that time, when you overtook me and my brother, you gave us a completely different feeling, as if you had seen through all our running styles. But after that, even when you changed your car to the Thunderbolt Rex, I never felt that feeling from you again.”

"By the way, what exactly does that feeling feel like?" Xiao Hao asked curiously. As a man who has been pursuing speed all his life, he couldn't help but become curious after learning about the magical state that Lin Che mentioned.

"How should I put it? In that state, the condition of the vehicle, the road conditions, and the changes in the surrounding environment are all under my control. Moreover, with complete concentration, at the intersection of all information, I feel that I can see all the possibilities within the next one to two seconds." Lin Che said.

"This feeling... I really want to experience it once." Lin Che's words made Xiao Hao extremely fascinated.

"You should be able to do it." Lin Che said, "However, for me, the trouble caused by this state far outweighs its effect."

According to Lin Che's current guess, the realm of zero simply means that after the physical body has reached its limit, the mental power will guide the driver to a new realm. The reason why he has this problem is probably that his mental power is too strong, so strong that his physical body can no longer keep up. Therefore, he does not need to reach the limit of the human body to activate this state. After all, the time he has spent studying in the system space over the years is almost enough for three lifetimes, so the improvement of his mental power is naturally considerable.

Therefore, the most important thing for him now is to improve his physical strength.

At the same time, he could also vaguely feel that the Zero Realm was not the end of the road for human racers, and there was a wider sky waiting for him. (Guess what this new realm is, this realm comes from a non-traditional racing show)

"Then, Ah Che, you just take care of it yourself tomorrow. We will do our best to help Xiao Hao fight for the pole position." Huo Yuesheng said.

……

At 2:00 p.m. on the second day, the qualifying round officially began under the watchful eyes of everyone.

The qualifying race continues the F1 tradition and is divided into three stages. The first stage, Q1, is within fifteen minutes from 14:00 to 14:15. All drivers can decide when to start and how many laps to run. The best single lap time they complete will be used as the qualifying result of the first stage. After this stage, the slowest five cars will be the last five on the starting grid for the race, and the remaining cars will enter the Q5 competition.

When the time was up, Xiao Hao immediately accelerated and rushed out using Whirlwind Charge.

The next moment, many players followed closely.

"Wow! It's really lively! It's rare to see such an intense qualifying match starting from Q1!" Ran Ge said in surprise in the studio of Five Star Sports.

"After all, this is the first race of the first GPX. As the first race of the new era of Formula One racing, the value and historical significance of this pole position are completely different. Therefore, all capable drivers will want to compete for it," said Li Bing.

"Magnum, the first lap is enough for you to complete the acceleration and warm-up!" Xiao Hao in the cab looked at the rear vehicle information transmitted by the terminal and said confidently, "I will definitely get the pole position in this race!"

"More than enough, let's go! Haojun!" The Magrum system also responded with full confidence.

"Let's go! Magrum!"

Xiao Hao stepped on the accelerator, and the super battery inside the Charge began to increase its power output, and the powerful engine began to run explosively.

"Xiao Hao, I will definitely be the winner this time!" Nie Ming, who was driving the Aurora and biting the Charge's tail tightly, shouted in the cockpit, "Aurora, speed up!"

"Mr. Nie Ming, the current speed of the Aurora is the limit that your operating level can 100% control. If you speed up further, there will be a risk of losing control. Are you sure you want to speed up?" The Aurora system replied.

"Sure, sure, sure!" Nie Ming kept urging. In just a short while, Xiao Hao was about to leave him behind, and at the same time, the Ferrari and Mercedes cars behind were also getting closer.

"Understood." After the Aurora system confirmed, the Aurora also began to accelerate. However, since it had already lost the initiative, it could only try to shake off the other cars chasing from behind before trying to catch up with the Charge in lap time.

"Did you notice?" Gao Xiaoman, who had been watching the race in the maintenance area, smiled and said, "Compared to our two cars, the cars of other teams have similar problems at this time. They are not accelerating decisively. Their AI is too mechanical in its judgment."

"Even with the source code provided by Ah Che, the engineers of each team can't convert their ideas all at once." Xiao Lie laughed, "They gave the AI ​​too little authority. Even if it's just a simple speed increase, it needs the driver's confirmation before it can proceed. Silvery and Magnum have the authority to make their own decisions on such matters. It's okay in qualifying, but if it's a race, they've already suffered a big loss."

"DRS team's No. 2 car, Charge, has completed the first lap acceleration and entered the second lap at full speed. It is currently far ahead in lap time!" Li Bing said excitedly, "Is this the strength of the driver who created the F season championship?"

At this moment, two cars that were like blazing flames broke through the siege. Ferrari's two CF racing cars, Pegasus, accelerated and gradually caught up with the speed of Charge!

"Is it Carlo and Ahai? I guess they have already realized this." Yingyulong said.
