Are You Crazy? You're Telling Me This Is a Fugitive TV Show?-Chapter 252: Challenging a Thousand-Foot Cliff and Winding Mountain Roads
Chapter 252: Challenging a Thousand-Foot Cliff and Winding Mountain Roads
At that moment, no one could sit still. It was Wang Yun’s first time driving, and he was driving a Bentley. On the highway no less.
“Boss, please don’t put us through this!”
Brother Hu and the others immediately looked pale. Although they were terrified, they weren’t trembling with fear just yet. However, the driver, sitting in the back, turned as white as a sheet, his mouth twitching uncontrollably. But no one had time to notice him.
“Hmm? Why is Wang Yun driving? And why did he suddenly accelerate?”
In the hotel observation room set up by the program, Wu Yaoming and the others noticed Wang Yun’s vehicle rapidly picking up speed. In the blink of an eye, it was already far ahead. They began to feel a bit anxious.
“Captain Joseph, did he spot you?” Wu Yaoming asked hurriedly.
If they had been discovered, they would have to take immediate action, deploying vehicles at various intersections to block Wang Yun.
“No, this guy has probably never driven such a nice car before and got the itch to drive. It’s just speed, nothing more,” Joseph said.
Then, a loud roar came from the video feed. Joseph’s car suddenly accelerated, the scenery around him blurring into streaks as it rushed by.
“Be careful!” Wu Yaoming and the others couldn’t help but worry.
They saw the speedometer needle quickly climbing to 140 km/h, which was already over the speed limit on the highway. Fortunately, the production team had arranged for all necessary safety measures, ensuring everyone’s safety.
Moreover, the entire stretch of highway had been temporarily leased by the program, effectively closing it off. Every hundred kilometers, the road was blocked for two hours. This meant that for two hours, no other vehicles could use this section of the highway. This temporary road closure was the production team’s way of ensuring safety.
“Awesome!”
Wang Yun glanced at the car trailing behind them. He had a rush of excitement. He wasn’t foolish. He wouldn’t risk his life just for a show. Every maneuver he made was calculated in advance. freewebnσvel.cѳm
For once, the executive producer hadn’t stepped in to warn him.
“Hold on tight, we’re speeding up again. Go!” Wang Yun shouted, flooring the accelerator.
The car roared as the speedometer shot up to 240 km/h.
At this speed, an ordinary car worth over 500,000 would likely start to wobble, but the Bentley remained rock solid.
Despite the incredible speed, the Bentley’s stability was unparalleled. It felt as steady as a rock, and the passing scenery blurred into a single, continuous line. Without checking the speedometer, it was hard to tell they were already doing 240 km/h.
“Mr. Wang, please be careful. The car’s top speed is 330 km/h. You shouldn’t push it any further,” the driver advised cautiously.
But his warning only spurred Wang Yun to push the pedal harder.
This time, everyone in the car felt a noticeable lift at the front as the speedometer hit 300 km/h. Theoretically, the speedometer maxed out at 330, but reaching such speeds was rare even under extreme conditions. Hitting 300 was already pushing the car to its limits.
“Not bad for speed!” Marley, who had been tailing Wang Yun, saw the speed hit 300 and felt a thrill.
On the racetrack, supercars had hit a top speed of 411.7 km/h before, so this was nothing for Joseph. He knew he could overtake Wang Yun anytime he wanted.
“Boss, that car behind us is modified. Its speed is no joke. I noticed from the way it accelerated that its top speed could reach 400 km/h,” Wang Zi commented, keeping a close eye on the car following them.
After observing for a while, he turned around with a serious look on his face.
“So you mean that no matter how fast Boss drives, the guy can still catch up?” Little Gang asked immediately.
“In that case, we should slow down. Speeding up won’t help at all!”
Before Wang Yun could respond, the driver hurriedly gave a small reminder, his voice trembling.
“Yes, it won’t help much unless there are obstacles or turns,” Wang Zi said.
“But this is a highway. Where are we going to find obstacles and turns?” Brother Hu said worriedly.
Highways were usually straight roads. Unless they went extremely fast, at about one and a half times the usual speed, they might create enough distance and then exit the highway where he couldn’t see them.
That was the only way to shake him off.
Otherwise, he would just keep following them. Plus, they used up all their weapons in that battle three days ago.
“No worries, it’s a piece of cake~ Brother Hu, check the map. I remember that on the way to Yun City, we have to cross two mountains if we take the lower road. See how far we are from those mountains. Forget it, just change the navigation for me. I’ll show you some mountain scenery!”
As Wang Yun finished speaking, he reached out to change the navigation.
Seeing this, Brother Hu got nervous and quickly shouted, “Boss, let me do it!”
In just a few seconds, they changed the destination.
“Now, heading to the new destination, 56 kilometers away. Drive straight for 51 kilometers, then take the exit towards Fang City.”
“Speed limit for this section is 120 kilometers per hour. You are speeding!” the navigation system announced.
They had 56 kilometers to go before reaching the two mountains. Normally, people wouldn’t take this route. Most would opt to stay on the highway. However, locals lived in the mountains, and the scenery was beautiful, attracting tourists who wanted to experience mountain life. Over the past two years, the mountain roads had been increasingly developed. Finally, two years ago, the roads through the mountains were fully connected.
Despite this, the mountain roads were said to be very narrow and winding. When two cars met, they had to pass each other very carefully. Even experienced drivers wouldn’t exceed 40 kilometers per hour on these roads.
After checking the route, Brother Hu looked up with a nervous expression. He hesitated to speak but finally mustered the courage.
Just then, the driver spoke up first. He was almost in tears.
“The roads there are all mountain paths, and below them are sheer cliffs. You need to think this through carefully, Mr. Wang!”
Seeing the driver like this, Wang Yun felt a bit guilty.
“Master Yu, you’ve already guessed who I am, haven’t you?” Wang Yun asked casually, even as he continued to drive at high speed.
Master Yu really didn’t want to talk to him now.
“I know, but our lives are important,” Master Yu exclaimed. “You’re so skilled, Mr. Wang, you don’t need to do this!”
As he spoke, it was clear that Master Yu’s eyes were red with tears. Wang Yun saw this in the rearview mirror and tried to suppress a smile.
In fact, from the moment he got into the car at the service area, he had already activated his god-level racing skills. This meant that no matter who was following him, even if they were a professional driver, he was undoubtedly better.
