Due to her lack of skill in riding, the motorcycleâs wheels slipped, causing it to tilt fiercely and fall over.
The front wheel then hit a rock, the motorcycle flipped again, and Hanyu was flung into the air.
The crowd in the distance screamed in shock.
However, Hanyu didnât crash to the ground; Ren Zhong launched his medium engine just in time, soaring into the air, and caught her mid-air, bringing her back to the cave entrance.
Ren Zhong didnât blame her for the mistake; he only instructed, "Even though I just dispersed the cold with an air burst bomb, the temperature inside is still below freezing. Bear with it for a bit. Even though this chip is only worth 1000 points, itâs crucial for my next plan."
Hearing this, the Hanyu in Ren Zhongâs arms dumbly nodded, saying instinctively, "Uh-huh. Time is tight, let me down quickly."
Bang!
"Ouch~!"
The crowd in the distance watching the spectacle winced collectively.
Ou Youning: "Ren doesnât show any tenderness."
Zheng Tian: "Even my butt hurts just looking at it."
Wen Lei: "Hanyu should succeed, right? Uh, this is a Level Four Ruined Beast."
Zheng Tian: "She should... maybe... probably... possibly manage?"
Two minutes later, Hanyu, shivering from the cold, crawled out of a hole in the giant beastâs belly.
Ren Zhong leaned down, grabbed her trembling hand, and pulled her out, asking, "How did it go?"
Hanyu raised the storage case in her hand with effort, smiling brightly, her eyebrows frosted, "Mission accomplished. Perfect Level!"
Although she already had the skills of a Fourth Level Demolition Master, it was indeed her first time dismantling a Level Four Ruins Beast Crystal Chip.
And with gloves that were not high-grade enough, she naturally worried about not performing well and messing up Ren Zhongâs plan.
The perfect finish left Hanyu very satisfied with her performance.
She was extremely excited, her chest heaving violently.
Seeing her expression, Ren Zhong was somewhat speechless. He initially wanted to say, âWhat are you so excited about? Iâve never seen you fail to dismantle a Level Four, the worst quality was still excellent.â
But Ren Zhong thought for a moment and realized that on this timeline, it indeed was her first time dismantling a Level Four chip.
Oh well, to match her excitement, he reluctantly gave a compliment.
"Not bad, well done."
Hanyu nodded enthusiastically, "Thank you, Mr. Ren, for your praise."
"Alright, alright, itâs cold here, letâs go, we should head back."
...
On the way back, the other four team members felt a bit awkward.
In this hunt targeting the Level Four Ruined Beast, the battle and dismantling were handled by Ren Zhong and Hanyu, while they did nothing.
It seemed like their presence was reduced to just being part of the background, responsible for watching and gasping in awe.
Just like in those TV shows, where when the protagonist steps up to challenge the impossible, the supporting roles express doubt and worry.
Then the protagonist effortlessly achieves what was thought impossible.
The support roles are left flushed with embarrassment, ashamed of their lack of insight.
Sitting in the passenger seat of the box truck, Ou Youning silently turned his face to look out the right-side window.
The Thunderbolt Car was driving parallel to the box truck.
Driving over there was Zheng Tian. She claimed the driving spot of the Thunderbolt Car under the pretense that Ren Zhong had completed a battle two levels above and would be too tired.
As for Hanyu, she was sitting in the passenger seat of the Thunderbolt Car.
Ren Zhong was comfortably lounging in the back seat of the Thunderbolt Car like a king.
The box truckâs driver was Wen Lei.
Ou Youning sighed, "Weâre all teammates fighting side by side, but why is there such a big gap between people? Ren and Hanyu must be hiding something from us."
Wen Lei: "Donât overthink it."
"Iâve been flattering Ren so much, why doesnât he trust me, why does he have to keep things from me? Wen Lei, tell me why? What did I do wrong?"
Wen Lei: "You just talk too much. Have you ever thought that Ren might not want us to know for our own good?"
Ou Youningâs spirits rose again, "Oh right. That must be it! Forget it, Iâll just improve my skills when we get back."
From the back seat, Bai Feng couldnât resist asking, "What skills?"
"The skill of holding onto someone powerful! I feel like Ren is still fond of beauties, but he must be a clean freak. I need to carefully consider this. Iâll have the madam from Nightâs Long Sleep keep an eye out for me, surely I can find a good girl whoâs both pretty and pure! Hmm! Thatâs settled!"
Wen Lei silently turned his face away, not wanting to look at this fool any longer.
...
At 5:45 in the afternoon, the peak hour at the Starfire Resources Recycling Plaza was bustling with people.
Suddenly, a womanâs scream pierced the air in front of the platform.
