Chapter 139: Chapter 138: The Portable Sports Car Lin Tian saw their strange expressions and couldn’t help but ask, "Is there something wrong with this car?" "Of course there’s nothing wrong, but this Ferrari has been modified." Ou Mengmeng quickly denied any issues and then continued with slight excitement, "When I bought this car, it could only be considered a mid-range sports car. Its heart features a 6.3L V12 engine arranged in a V layout, capable of delivering a maximum power of 660 horsepower. But, I made some modifications to it." She gestured with her hands, a girl talking expertly about car modifications, "The brakes have been modified to enhance braking performance. I’ve changed the suspension system, transmission, and enhanced the engine. Most importantly, I replaced the original car’s computer ECU to break the original power output limit, boosting the power output from 70 percent to the limit." "Won’t the police impound your car if you drive it out?" Lin Tian, not very familiar with how much modification was allowed, asked. "Sometimes they stop us, but most won’t bother you. This kind of modification is only basic at best. There are very few real modified cars in the country. One reason is that policy doesn’t allow it, the other is that there are no high-level professional modification experts available; it’s all small-time stuff," Ou Mengmeng said somewhat regretfully. Zhou Botong waved his hand, eagerly saying, "Whether it’s a mule or a horse, you’ll know when you take it out for a ride, Brother Lin, let’s go!" After taking the car keys from Ou Mengmeng, Lin Tian started the car, and a deep rumble sounded. "Lin Tian, turn on your phone’s Bluetooth, connect to the driving computer, and keep in touch," Ou Mengmeng said, making a telephone gesture. He nodded, reversed the car out of the garage, and left the villa area. Outside the villa area was a private road spanning thousands of meters, vast and empty, without a single person or car in sight. Excitement arose in Lin Tian’s heart, and he stepped on the accelerator. The engine’s original rhythmic rumble suddenly turned into an astonishing roar, followed by a furious howling! The numbers on the speedometer were like the last few digits of a countdown timer, racing rapidly. Lin Tian felt as if an ongoing massive force was pushing him forward from the back. If he were an ordinary person, his mind would definitely experience slight dizziness. However, since he was a zombie, this speed was child’s play. He could run faster than a car, naturally and pollution-free. To him, driving was merely child’s play, even if the car sped to the full range of the speedometer, Lin Tian faced no obstacles. If you can run faster than a car, would you still care how fast the car can go? Moreover, with his super strong sense of perception and reaction speed, controlling the car was a breeze for Lin Tian, almost like the legendary man-machine unity. After accelerating to the limit and then decelerating, he stomped on the brakes. The powerful braking performance made the car stop abruptly, and the tires pulled several dark marks on the ground before the whole car came to a halt. It took a while before Zhou Botong and the others arrived. "The car’s performance is not bad, but its top speed is still not fast enough," Lin Tian commented objectively. However, his indifferent tone left the two speechless. Ou Mengmeng stared at him like he was a monster and said, "Over 300 km/h and it’s still not enough? You think you’re playing with your life! We’re just amateurs, we can’t compare to professional racing cars." Lin Tian shrugged noncommittally, an attitude that probably irritated the couple. Ou Mengmeng then exclaimed, "Fine, I’m taking you to East Snake Mountain now to show you what extreme bends are like, to show you what playing with your life means!" Immediately, the two cars headed towards East Snake Mountain. East Snake Mountain consists of nine peaks and twelve mountains. The mountain Lin Tian and the others were heading to was the one with the largest forest area and the highest altitude, Tianma Mountain. Tianma Mountain, anciently known as Gan Mountain, was named after the sword-casting master, Gan Jiang, from the Spring and Autumn Wu State, who forged swords here. The famous Fanyin Temple is located on Tianma Mountain. Two cars wound their way up the mountain road, made of concrete. Lin Tian finally witnessed the dangerous bends that Ou Mengmeng had mentioned. Although it wasn’t as exaggerated as eighteen hairpin bends, steep slopes lined both sides of the road, heavily wooded. A careless move could send a car flying into the woods, potentially costing lives. The destination atop the mountain was a spacious plaza, still some distance from the summit. At this point, the plaza was already filled with numerous sports cars, with clusters of people boasting to one another. Among them, the largest group was at the center. When Lin Tian and his group arrived, some people began whistling and waving. They were all from the same circle and naturally recognized Ou Mengmeng’s car. Moreover, the reason for organizing tonight’s event stemmed from her dispute with the Japanese, so when Lin Tian and his friends got out of their cars, no one was surprised. As Lin Tian and his two companions approached, the largest circle dispersed, and four people stepped out: the brothers Bai Yuze and Bai Yufeng, Sun Decai, and Futian Shenyi. Behind the four, a flashy sports car was parked. Its silver body shimmered under the lights, blinding as polished titanium. The lone "B" symbol as its emblem, signifying its identity: a Bugatti Veyron! Limited to fifty units per year with a hefty price tag of twenty-five million, the Veyron boasts the highest speeds and a super high horsepower of a thousand, making it a superstar among sports cars. "Brother Lin, see that? That Veyron is Futian Shenyi’s car, shipped over from Japan. They say he takes it everywhere he goes." Zhou Botong leaned over and whispered. "Taking his car everywhere? What a bizarre habit." Lin Tian scoffed in disdain. Just a car, no need for all that. Zhou Botong nodded in agreement: "Exactly, it’s ridiculous. On these mountain roads, driving fast means dying fast." While they talked, the two groups had already met, and three factions formed among the people here. Ou Mengmeng’s friends naturally supported her, but Bai Yufeng and his group had also made quite a few acquaintances, and the rest were neutral. "Come on, Lin Tian, let me introduce you to a beauty. She’s every bit as good as the Xiao sisters." Ou Mengmeng pulled a girl from behind her friends and introduced her: "This is my best friend, Li Xiaoxiao. She’s only sixteen, so don’t get any ideas!" A sixteen-year-old girl, how did she become best friends with the twenty-something Ou Mengmeng? The friendships among women are indeed strange, something Lin Tian really couldn’t grasp. One Xiaoxiao and one Mengmeng, they actually matched quite well. "Brother Lin, hello ..." The young girl was somewhat shy. She had been hiding behind the crowd, and now, faced with a stranger, her cheeks were already blushing. Although young, the girl had blossomed into great beauty. Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down her back, and beneath her long eyelashes, her eyes sparkled, yet carried a hint of timidity, evoking a sense of tenderness. Her skin was exceptionally fine, as tender as a baby’s, and beneath her pink skirt, her body curve was beginning to take shape. What on earth do girls eat these days to develop so well at just sixteen? But he was only surprised momentarily, as he had seen many beautiful women and his immunity to them had grown stronger. The idea of hitting on someone, as Ou Mengmeng had insinuated, was even less likely; he hadn’t made a move on Xiao Manxuan, let alone a sixteen-year-old girl.
