Chapter 62: Overtaking on the Bend

Seeing the two people overtake him, Zhang Binglin immediately forgot about the noise pollution and accelerated to chase after them.

Behind them, Bai Chengzhou watched with a look of utter disillusionment as his idol transformed from a man to a woman, and even lacked the basic decency to stop making such a racket!

Taking advantage of Bai Chengzhou’s daze, Lu Xingnan from District 1 overtook him and kicked at his motorcycle as he passed.

Bai Chengzhou quickly snapped out of it, dodged the attack, and became entangled in a struggle with Lu Xingnan.

Soon, they encountered the first wave of obstacles: a row of Bronze Treasure Chests!

The treasure chests were packed tightly together, completely blocking the path ahead. The players had no choice but to ram through them!

Confident because the previous chest hadn’t contained any monsters, Mo Yubai did not hesitate for a second and rammed straight into the chest in the middle.

[Beep – Congratulations to the player for obtaining Monster x5]

And just like that, the monsters were replenished.

Mo Yubai listened speechlessly to the notifications of other players receiving helmets and fireproof suits, then sighed as she looked at the monsters appearing in front of her.

With every throw of her flying daggers proving fatal, Mo Yubai quickly sped past the corpses of the monsters.

Behind her, Bai Chengzhou watched this scene with shining eyes and let out a whistle. “Cool!”

Hua Cai from District 5 rolled her eyes, silently accelerating to get away from the starstruck Bai Chengzhou.

She was afraid that stupidity might be contagious!

The wind grew stronger and stronger, not only constantly blowing the motorcycles off course but also causing visibility to drop lower and lower!

Mo Yubai could clearly feel the stinging pain of yellow sand mixed with gravel pelting her body. Her head and face were covered in a layer of grime, and even with her Goggles, it was difficult to see ahead!

Just then, she suddenly noticed the road was becoming smoother, and alarm bells instantly rang in her mind!

A flat road, and low visibility!

Based on her past gaming experience, a sharp bend was highly likely to appear ahead!

If she didn’t adjust her speed in time, both she and her bike would probably go flying!

Mo Yubai began to slow down to stabilize her bike, silently shaking her head at Wen Ruyan, who was looking at her in confusion.

Although Wen Ruyan didn’t understand why she suddenly slowed down, she wisely chose to match Mo Yubai’s pace and keep her speed in check.

“What’s wrong? Out of gas? Can’t keep up?” Zhang Binglin accelerated past Mo Yubai, mocking her with a face full of disdain.

“Sister Mo, your little brother will take the lead!” Bai Chengzhou grinned like a happy idiot, excitedly overtaking Mo Yubai and charging ahead!

Mo Yubai stared speechlessly at the overly familiar white-clad figure. Her lips twitched. Do I even know you? Why are you calling me Sister Mo?

As motorcycle after motorcycle overtook her, Mo Yubai remained completely unbothered.

She simply gripped the handlebars tightly, keeping her speed low, ready to make a sharp turn at any moment!

Sure enough, in less than a minute!

A loud crash echoed from ahead, followed by a continuous chain of collisions!

The corners of Mo Yubai’s mouth curled up. Now was the time!

She leaned hard into the handlebars, tilting the bike instantly. Her knee almost scraped the ground as the tires screeched against the asphalt, taking the bend perfectly with a loud vroom.

Wen Ruyan followed closely behind, successfully clearing the turn as well!

Nearby, Bai Chengzhou, Zhang Binglin, and the others scrambled up in embarrassment, picking up their crashed motorcycles.

Seeing the two women navigate the turn smoothly, they all sighed in unison.

“Tch, what a pity.”

At this moment, the comments in the Live Stream Room were scrolling rapidly.

“Hahaha, I knew it!”

“Mo Yubai really knows her stuff.”

“Indeed, and it was such a sudden, dangerous bend! Even if you noticed it early, it wouldn’t be easy to clear it so smoothly!”

“Aww, is no one shipping the chemistry between Boss Mo and Big Boss Wen?”

“Me, me, me! They’re totally in sync!”

“Hahaha, the happier Bai Chengzhou was when he overtook Boss Mo, the more dazed he was after crashing!”

“LMAO, his eyes instantly turned into stars when he saw Boss Mo’s cool drift!”

“Zhang Binglin was just showing off to Boss Mo. Why is he dead silent now?”

“One of his tires flew off in the crash. What do you expect him to say?”

“Nice.”

…

Soon, the second group at the back of the highway, including Zhu Ou and the others, also arrived at this bend.

Having picked up quite a few treasure chests along the way, Zhu Ou was fully equipped and unaffected by the yellow sand, allowing her to spot the bend quickly.

Unfortunately, even though she noticed it, the others didn’t.

She wasn’t fast enough and was sandwiched in the middle, leaving her with no way to escape!

Before long, her motorcycle lost control along with the surrounding bikes, and she crashed heavily!

Zhu Ou patted the sand off her pants, stood up from the yellow sand, and picked up the pink motorcycle beside her.

Looking completely unfazed on the outside while crying internally, she got back on the bike, ready to set off again!

“Huh? Why won’t it start? Did it break?”

Zhu Ou twisted the throttle hard, but the pink motorcycle still didn’t budge. She got off, stood on the sandy ground, and gave it a hard kick!

Still no response!

She kept muttering to herself while patting and slapping the bike’s body.

Zhu Ou was utterly baffled. It looked perfectly fine, didn’t it?

“Oh no, did it really break? Or am I not hitting it in the right spot with the right force?”

“I don’t think that’s the reason.”

Zhu Ou spun around in shock to look at the man in black who had suddenly appeared behind her. Jin Qian from District 1?

That was a great name. It made people like him instantly, though changing it to “Gold Coin” would be even better!

Shaking her head to clear the random thoughts, Zhu Ou asked in confusion.

“Do you know how to fix bikes?”

Jin Qian shrugged at her. “No.”

Zhu Ou: “Then how do you know why my bike won’t start?”

Jin Qian pointed helplessly at another pink motorcycle lying in the desert to their front left.

“Because your bike is over there. The one you were just kicking and slapping is mine. Of course you can’t start it.”

“Ah?” Zhu Ou’s cheeks instantly flushed bright red. Flustered, she tried to push the bike back to Jin Qian.

In her haste, she fumbled, and with a loud crash, the pink motorcycle fell back into the sand!

Jin Qian rushed forward, picking up his beloved bike with a pained expression. “Even if it’s not your bike, you shouldn’t abuse it like this.”

Zhu Ou was about to explain that it was an accident when she caught sight of Jiang Lan dragging Jiang Taoqi’s motorcycle toward the bend out of the corner of her eye!

With no time to explain, she blurted out a quick “Sorry!”, ran over to pick up her own motorcycle, and hurriedly set off!

It all happened in a flash. Before Jin Qian could even process what had happened, he saw the sister duo from District 4 walking toward him.

Eight minutes later, Jin Qian hugged himself in distress, looking at his pink motorcycle, which was now missing a rear tire, wanting to cry but having no tears left.

He finally understood why Zhu Ou from District 7 had run off so quickly!

Those two sisters were incredibly beautiful, but their methods were ruthlessly brutal!

The Live Stream Room was practically dying of laughter.

“Hahaha! I watched Jin Qian’s pink bike crash right next to Zhu Ou’s after knocking it flying. I had a feeling she’d get them mixed up!”

“LMAO, Jin Qian could only watch helplessly as his beloved bike was abused!”

“Zhu Ou is literally me. When the TV or fridge breaks at home, just slap it and kick it.”

“Hahaha, Zhu Ou’s little pink bike was just lying there alone in the sand, watching its owner give another pink bike a ‘loving touch’. So pitiful!”

“You call those loud crashing sounds a loving touch?”

“Hahaha, I bet Zhu Ou wishes she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into right now!”

“Wait, why did Zhu Ou run away so fast?”

“Jiang Lan is such a good sister. She literally tied Jiang Taoqi’s motorcycle to hers with clothes and dragged it along.”

“Oh, I think I know why Zhu Ou ran now.”

“It looks like Jiang Lan didn’t want the tires from those broken bikes at the back. That means Jin Qian is in danger.”

“Jin Qian is still dazed! Run, quickly!”

“Hahaha, hilarious! Exactly as I expected!”

“Jin Qian: weak, helpless, and pitiful.”

“Hahaha, so tragic!”
