Chapter 82 Accelerating Forward
In exchange for a watermelon and a small bottle of 3g of medicated oil, I can get a car audio system diagram.
Zhou Qinghuan was happy with this deal. As a foodie, she was naturally delighted to receive a watermelon in return.
Li Sijing was satisfied with the deal; she had finally gotten the car audio system she had been wanting for so long.
From now on, she can finally have a seamless conversation with the starry sky, and she no longer needs to stare at the screen all the time.
Upon receiving the blueprints, Li Sijing immediately clicked "Manufacturing and Loading." After the white mist dissipated, she tentatively spoke, "Xiao Kong."
"Master, I'm here. What can I do for you?" A pleasant male announcer's voice echoed in the carriage.
Upon hearing this, Li Sijing immediately smiled with satisfaction and instructed, "From now on, just use voice chat if you need anything!"
"Yes, Master."
Having finished what she needed to do, Li Sijing checked the time and distance. It was a little past 1:40, and she had driven less than 240 kilometers.
It's uncertain whether we'll reach our destination after another celestial fire attack.
While pondering, she opened the last bottle of honeysuckle dew and drank it down, her mouth never empty for a moment.
Li Sijing grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds and started cracking them open. She checked the time, preparing to put the ice on the shelf in fifty minutes.
The ice cubes sold out instantly after they were put on the shelves, so she didn't have to worry about it.
I don't want to go to the regional channels either; they're probably discussing how many people have died, which is going to affect my mood.
Taking advantage of the remaining time, Li Sijing took out the remaining half of the ice cream from the refrigerator and started eating it.
Experiencing such thrilling life-or-death situations repeatedly has taken a toll on her, causing her to want to put something in her mouth whenever she has a spare moment.
Fortunately, she had enough supplies, otherwise she really wouldn't have had enough to squander.
Having timed it perfectly, she put the remaining ice cream back in the freezer and focused intently on facing the challenge once again.
The fireballs were even more concentrated than before, but fortunately, having gone through four trials, she had gained some experience.
Although the difficulty is increasing, she is not as panicked as she was the first time.
Besides, she has a car repair card as a safety net; as long as the car doesn't break down instantly, she'll be fine.
At this moment, Li Sijing suddenly realized that this natural disaster was not only a test of a person's driving skills and luck.
It is still testing everyone's reserves of supplies. If there are enough supplies, even if the technology is not good enough, it is likely that we can pass the test!
Having endured multiple fires, the highway was now completely burned beyond recognition, almost unrecognizable from its original state.
The highway was riddled with potholes from the fireballs and melted asphalt.
If Li Sijing's tires hadn't been reinforced, she estimated they would have been ruined in less than half an hour.
Even now, given the high-temperature resistance of her tires, it remains to be seen whether they can withstand such road conditions until the end of the natural disaster.
If reinforced tires are already like this, then what about ordinary tires on other cars?
Li Sijing, who was focused on her work, didn't have the energy to worry about others at that moment.
This fireball was almost twice the size of the first one. If Li Sijing hadn't had some experience, she probably would have been hit countless times.
Even now, she lives in constant fear, hoping that this heavenly fire will pass quickly.
When the fire finally died down, Li Sijing breathed a long sigh of relief; it was finally over.
If it didn't end soon, she was prepared to use the car repair card while the car was speeding.
Although using a car repair card will not affect driving, it can still be dangerous if you are going too fast.
She would never do that unless absolutely necessary, which shows that what happened just now was a last resort.
Li Sijing couldn't help but look up at the top of the car, where she saw a hole about the size of a ping-pong ball, from which hot air was constantly pouring into the car.
Just now, four fireballs, aligned in a straight line, struck her car precisely in its path.
She dodged one, but not the second; she dodged the third, but not the fourth.
Two fireballs slammed into the top of the car, burning through even the special steel.
Flames could be seen burning above the small opening, which was gradually expanding at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
The temperature inside the car, which was originally constant, gradually rose due to the hot air issue.
To maintain the low temperature, the air conditioners are running at full speed, constantly consuming energy. Fortunately, they use electricity, not gasoline.
In this high-temperature world, sunshine is probably the one thing we have in abundance.
To prevent the opening from widening and affecting the car's movement, Li Sijing used a car repair card again.
The car was completely restored, even the severely worn tires looked brand new and could be driven for a long time again.
This must be the last time she experiences the celestial fire, right? Li Sijing couldn't help but look at the road ahead.
It's 2:30 pm now, and she has already driven more than 260 kilometers, with less than 40 kilometers left to go.
It's a little worse than expected! Li Sijing couldn't help but frown.
At a speed of 70 kilometers per hour, it would be a bit of a stretch to travel 40 kilometers in half an hour!
Does she have to go through the heavenly fire again?
Thinking about the ever-growing danger of the heavenly fire, Li Sijing really didn't want to experience it again.
It was only a few kilometers away, and Li Sijing was really unwilling to give up. After thinking for a while, she couldn't help but ask.
"Xiao Kong, given the current situation outside, what will the car tire damage be like in half an hour?"
“Given the current road conditions, the car tires will be worn down by more than 40 percent in half an hour,” Xingkong replied.
If a tire is 40% worn out and then experiences another fire, it will most likely need a car repair card!
If that's the case, why doesn't she take a gamble?
After thinking it through in her mind, Li Sijing no longer hesitated and directly gave instructions to Xingkongdao.
"Starry Sky, accelerate to 80 kilometers per hour and try to complete the 300 kilometers before 3 o'clock."
"Master, the road conditions outside are terrible. Speeding up now could cause a tire blowout. Should we continue?" Xingkong dutifully reminded him.
A tire blowout is just a matter of using a car repair card. Regardless of whether you speed up or not, you'll always need that car repair card eventually.
"Speed up," Li Sijing ordered firmly.
Upon hearing this, Xingkong no longer hesitated, and the car's speed instantly increased.
