Chapter 752: Reshaping

"Doesn't that mean Old Lu is in great danger?" Yang Xiao frowned. "Then why did we let him go?"

"We don't know the other party's background yet, so it's not wise to act rashly... And didn't you hear? There are others behind him watching Lu Xun."

"Then we shouldn't have given him the car, right? What if he gets there faster than us?"

"If we don't give him the car, he'll just go buy another one. Besides..."

Chen Ling's mouth arched slightly.

He looked at the vehicles coming from behind and said calmly,

"There's no way he'll be faster than us in that car."

……

"Alright, I'm hanging up, I'll contact you when I get there."

The young man hung up the phone while driving, focusing all his attention on the road, with the gas pedal pressed to the floor.

But to his surprise, even so, the speed couldn't be increased, and it was at most 150 yards... He frowned and stepped on it a few more times, but some strange noises came from under the hood.

"That shouldn't be... This car looks like a new model, it shouldn't have been driven for long... Has Mercedes become this bad?"

The young man muttered a few words.

He regretted choosing this car, but after spending 650,000, he was reluctant to abandon it halfway. He wasn't rich enough for that... Fortunately, this speed was enough for now. Once he entered the city, he wouldn't be able to go that fast anyway.

But soon he found that he was still too optimistic.

Five kilometers later, the original limit speed of 150 yards decayed to 130, and after another five kilometers, only 100 yards were left...

The young man was stunned, but he bit the bullet and kept driving. However, the speed became slower and slower, and the whole car body was making creaking sounds, as if it were about to fall apart.

This shouldn't be!

This makes no sense!!

The young man was anxious and angry, and the sound of horns from behind made him extremely annoyed... In the end, even an old lady selling oranges on an electric tricycle could keep up with his speed.

The old lady saw that the car was so slow, hesitated for a moment, took out a fresh and full orange from behind, and knocked on the window:

"Boss, want some oranges?"

“……”

The young man was about to scold something, but the next moment, a loud noise came from under him.

Tut tut tut tut—

Rolling black smoke surged from under the hood. Even though he had stepped on the gas pedal to the end, the vehicle slowly stopped in the middle of the road in his desperate gaze...

"What the hell is this car?!" The young man couldn't help it. He cursed, unbuckled his seat belt, and went to pull the door open.

But as soon as he touched the door handle, the entire driver's side door fell off and slammed onto the ground with a bang... This was like some kind of signal. The next moment, the tires, the undercarriage, the front and rear exterior structures, and even the windshield wipers fell apart and scattered, with all kinds of parts exploding all over the floor!

"Hey look, what's going on over there?"

"I don't know... I saw that car fall apart all at once... Is it a movie prop?"

“……”

At the same time, the surrounding passersby also stopped one after another, couldn't help but take out their mobile phones to film this scene frantically, while covering their mouths and laughing at something.

Inside the remaining car frame, the young man looked at the junk on the ground with a ghostly expression.

At this moment, no matter how slow he was, he realized he had been played... He couldn't help but pull out the steering wheel and smash it hard on the ground, and it shattered instantly like a biscuit!

"F*** you!!"

……

At the same time.

In the passenger seat of a brand-new car, Yang Xiao was boredly scrolling through his phone.

As a potential video from nearby was pushed in front of him, Yang Xiao's expression suddenly became strange... He looked at the car frame full of parts in the funny BGM, and the familiar figure with a stunned face in the car, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Chen Ling, who was driving calmly.

"...How did you do that?"

Chen Ling smiled slightly. "Just a little trick."

The [Material Reshaping and Material Ultimate Strength] drawn from Lou Yu was even more powerful than Chen Ling expected. And just now, when he patted the car, he had silently changed the ultimate strength of the parts inside the car.

The so-called material ultimate strength is the maximum stress that a material can withstand when bearing a load. It is a threshold. The larger this value, the tougher the material, and the smaller, the easier it is to be damaged... Of course, Chen Ling's control over this threshold is limited now, but even so, destroying an ordinary car is simple.

"In this way, it delayed about twenty minutes," Yang Xiao couldn't help but sigh. "The gap has widened."

"Twenty minutes?"

Chen Ling raised his eyebrows. "...That's not all."

After the words fell, Chen Ling confirmed that there were no other vehicles in front or behind, then slowly reached his hand out of the window, and placed his palm on the upper door frame...

Wisps of electric light traveled rapidly along the car body, and an indescribable force poured into the car from Chen Ling's palm!

"Reshape," Chen Ling said lightly.

The next moment, the entire appearance of the vehicle began to change, from the original ordinary family car shell to a low-slung streamlined appearance, reducing wind resistance to the minimum. At the same time, the silver car paint was also transformed into fire red!

The original engine was continuously strengthened under Chen Ling's skill. The material ultimate strength climbed rapidly, and after breaking through the limit, it actually made a roar no less than any world-class sports car engine!

In just a few seconds, an ordinary Volkswagen turned into a super sports car that could break records!

[Audience Anticipation +3]

Yang Xiao looked at all this in astonishment. The terrifying push-back force pressed him against the seat, and his heartbeat accelerated with the soaring speed. He gripped the handle tightly and couldn't help but say:

"Are you... a Transformer?!"

"Dr. Yang Xiao, times are different now," Chen Ling felt the speed brought by this ability and smiled slightly. "From now on, I don't need to squeeze into the subway anymore."

“？？？”

Yang Xiao didn't know about Chen Ling's experience during his first return, nor could he understand Chen Ling's brain circuit. He only knew that he was very nervous now. After struggling for a long time, he gave up persuading Chen Ling to drive slower...

He silently closed his eyes and chose to leave it to fate.

Vroom—!!

A red lightning bolt swept across the road, approaching the neon-flashing city in the distance.

……

Shanghai.

At the bustling intersection, a figure was leaning against a street lamp, letting the surrounding pedestrians pass by, but standing motionless like a sculpture... His gaze was fixed on the surroundings, as if looking for something.

The next moment, a vibration sounded from his pocket. He took out his phone and pressed the call button.

"Hello?"

“……”

"Found Dr. Lu's whereabouts? Where is he?"
