MTL - Electromagnetic Tyrant-Chapter 346v2 Electric Glaive

Chapter 344 Chase

Luo Yimeng saw that Ji Xinghuo was so confident. Although he still had doubts in his heart, he didn't say anything more and speeded up to run ahead.

 Ji Xinghuo concentrated on running.

 The rules of the Global Marathon are very simple, but it is actually very difficult to avoid any violations.

Even if you are a king, you will inevitably break the rules a few times during the whole race and then be penalized.

 You cannot run the wrong route. If you exceed the designated route range, you will also be penalized. If you fail to return to the correct route after one minute, your results will be cancelled.

 While running, he tapped his left wrist.

A small screen is projected in front of you, and you can see the current positions of other players in real time, marked on the route, as well as each player's speed, expected finishing score, etc., all at a glance.

Ji Xinghuo found his position at a glance.

　　Currently ranked fourth.

Ji Xinghuo didn't know what the host's experts said about him. He just concentrated on running and maintained a speed of Mach 1.

The real hexagonal King, there is only one Sun King in the world.

“He has not violated the rules once so far, and his accumulated penalty time is 0, which is very rare. It shows that he has extremely strong control over his body, no less than those marathon runners who have been training for many years.”

 Seeing this scene, the host and the audience laughed. This Internet celebrity king participates in marathons every year for traffic.

The host said immediately.

 Speaking of the duel bet between Ji Xinghuo and Li Xuan, several people on the screen shook their heads in unison.

 When Ji Xinghuo was mentioned, they were not optimistic.

 “45 to 50 hours.” One expert answered, “Ranked around tenth.”

 The Around the World Marathon is held every four years, and of course he cannot miss it.

Several guest experts nodded. This scene confirmed their predictions for Ji Xinghuo. One of them said: "After all, the foundation of the number one on the ladder is still not as good as that of the King of Heaven. Losing the Global Marathon this time will not have much impact, but in October , if he loses the duel with Li Xuan, he will lose a meteorite mutant."

“However, Ji Xinghuo has a very powerful advantage.”

 Several experts in front of the screen analyzed a few sentences. Although they were all unfavorable, they did not disparage them all, but praised them.

“Being number one on the ladder is certainly not that simple.”

Jeffrey the Freelander followed closely behind the Sun King, less than a kilometer away, and the bite was tight.

  It’s all teasing, but no one dares to underestimate the strength of the king.

The host disagreed, "Fighting is a combination of multiple abilities. Li Jianxia is not good at running long distances, but his swordsmanship, attack methods and combat experience are among the best in the world. Ji Xinghuo's chance of winning is very slim."

The scene immediately switched to him. All the viewers saw that on a highway in the fields, Maxim was getting faster and faster, and another running figure appeared in front of him, it was Ji Xinghuo.

The host and marathon experts have been analyzing the situation, and the main screen of the live broadcast is also switching between runners.

"really."

 “Ji Xinghuo dropped to fifth place.”

 Luo Yimeng is in third place.

"Ji Xinghuo's star power and physical fitness are far behind Tianwang. Although he took the lead at the start and was very eye-catching, it is a pity that he cannot last long. He currently maintains a speed of Mach 1 and is currently in fourth place. But according to my judgment, his ranking will continue to decline and be surpassed by the players behind him..."

At this moment, Li Xuan is also running with all his strength, but he is really not good at this. He just relies on his strong star power to run in front of the legends and marathon strangers. He is not far ahead and is currently ranked 17th.

The one running at the front was the Sun King. In just two or three minutes, he had already opened a distance of more than 10 kilometers from himself.

“If Li Jianxia and Ji Xinghuo competed in running, he would have already lost, and lost miserably.” An expert laughed.

 The screen switched and the topic turned to other players.

The live broadcast screen also specifically cut to Li Xuan's body.

 “Which aspect?”

This is also a king, the "arrowhead" of the New Roman Empire, named "Maxim Kalinin", ranked 24th on the list of kings.

 The distance between the two people quickly approached, and then Maxim overtook him, leaving Ji Xinghuo behind.

“I heard that Ji Xinghuo only started practicing marathon running after signing up. If this is true, it would be amazing.”

But this is too slow.

The host asked: "What do you think Ji Xinghuo's final score will be? What kind of ranking can he get?"

Several other people predicted similar results.

Another expert agreed: "Ji Xinghuo is just a super alien after all. It is very surprising that he can run at supersonic speed."

Most of the 49 kings in the world have their own strengths and weaknesses. Otherwise, there would not be only six kings participating in the global marathon.

“The Around the World Marathon is different from flying. He may be better at flying, but running on the ground restricts his speed.”

The speeds of these three kings are all over 400 meters per second, belonging to the first echelon, and the distance from Ji Xinghuo is getting farther and farther.

As he spoke, someone else began to exert force and gradually caught up with Ji Xinghuo.

 His words were echoed.

"And his tactics are also lacking. He should not sprint with all his strength at the beginning, as this will quickly consume his star power. The global marathon is a time-consuming sport. It is not just about speed, but more importantly, star power. Strength and stamina, but also will.”

 In the first hour, he ran 1,260 kilometers.

Not far ahead is "Yerevan". According to the event route, each player must pass through the city and pass a sign posted in the city.

 The scenery on the roadside quickly changed from mountains to cities, with tall buildings appearing in front of them.

 The road has been cleared and no vehicles or pedestrians are allowed to pass.

 There are eye-catching projections on the sky to guide the route.

Tens of thousands of spectators cheered and shouted from a safe distance, waiting for the arrival of the runners of the Global Marathon.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

Ji Xinghuo ran along the highway and into Yerevan. The streets on both sides quickly swept back in his field of vision, elongating into light and shadow.

 In the eyes of the roadside spectators, they only saw a shadow.

 Flash by.

 Suddenly, a violent shock wave hit him, and he heard a deafening sonic boom. He could not see the appearance of the contestant at all.

In the projection screen in the sky, the high-speed camera captured the picture and played it back in slow speed.

The perspective of the drone lens also locked on Ji Xinghuo, allowing people to see his running posture, leaning forward, stepping alternately with his feet, swinging his arms, and wearing a pair of silver and black running shoes. Every step he takes, Leaving footprints on the ground, the whole person flew close to the ground like a bolt of lightning.

 What you see on the screen has far less visual impact than reality.

 Wherever Ji Xinghuo ran, the spectators on the roadside would burst into awe and then watch his retreating shadow.

Route signs are high in the central neighborhood of Yerevan.

 When Ji Xinghuo ran under the sign, he immediately confirmed that the route was valid, and continued running forward without stopping.

It only took about a minute for him to pass through this small city. After leaving the city, he turned to the southeast.

 The next sign is in Tehran.

 Along the highway, Ji Xinghuo arrived in Tehran 40 minutes later, still in fifth place.

However, when he passed the sign in Tehran, someone caught up with him.

Ji Xinghuo did not look back.

  A high-speed moving figure appeared in the radius of electromagnetic induction. It was faster than himself and was approaching quickly.

 “Flying artist.”

 “Ranked 35th on the King List, Jose Morales.”

  Ji Xinghuo's mind flashed with information about his opponent.

José Morales’s experience is similar to that of Li Xuan, and he is also an internet celebrity king. However, unlike Li Xuan, he doesn't dare to venture into the star world at all. Being an Internet celebrity is just a hobby and he is keen to share his knowledge with people. Amid the cheers of the audience on the streets of Tehran, Jose caught up with Ji Xinghuo.

 This "flying artist" is a "sky patroller" who is best at flying and is equally good at running on the ground.

When passing Ji Xinghuo, Jose waved to Ji Xinghuo and made a "bye" gesture.

　　Obviously this is sarcasm.

 At this moment, multiple drones in the sky took photos from different angles and sent them to the world.

Even though Jose didn’t mean any harm, it still sparked a heated discussion.

 Many viewers online started mocking him.

Ji Xinghuo didn't see it, but he knew that this scene must have been seen by countless people, and he could also guess the audience's reaction.

 He doesn't care.

Falling behind to sixth place, Ji Xinghuo remained calm. More than half an hour later, he ran along the southern coast of the Caspian Sea to the border of the Star-Moon Alliance.

 Ahead is Central Asia, the territory of the Asia-Pacific Community.

Hunters of the Global Marathon, when crossing national borders, the drones above their heads will be replaced by those of the current country. This can avoid many diplomatic disputes and risks.

Running all the way through the coast, mountains and plateaus, running eastward along the Silk Road, passing through the Taklimakan Desert, there are more and more greens in the field of vision, and the climate and environment are becoming more and more familiar. Passing through the Chaka Star Gate, it is far away from Chang'an. Coming closer.

 After more than seven hours of running.

Finally, Ji Xinghuo saw Chang'an. Due to the time difference, it was past 12 o'clock in the middle of the night in Chang'an.

 The megalopolis under night is still brightly lit, just like daytime.

 Familiar skyscrapers and wide streets are built on superconducting highways in mid-air, and maglev cars are constantly flowing.

 The race route has been cleared.

 But along the roadside, countless spectators stayed up late and waited until now, just to see the runners running by with their own eyes.

 When Ji Xinghuo ran into Chang'an, he was cheered warmly.

"come on!"

“Ji Xinghuo, run quickly. You can overtake that arrogant guy in front of you!”

"come on! Come on…"

Because he was running at supersonic speed, Ji Xinghuo could only hear the shouting from the front, and it was intermittently unclear. However, he felt everyone's enthusiasm and saw his family and friends cheering for him on the roadside.

 He opened the projection screen and took a look.

 Him still ranked sixth.

 The one in front is "Flying Artist" Jose. His speed has slowed down, and the distance is getting closer, less than 100 kilometers.

The Sun King, the fastest runner, has now reached Mingzhu City, the second largest city in the Asia-Pacific Community, surpassing himself by more than 2,000 kilometers.

 “It’s my turn to exert my strength.”

Ji Xinghuo ran past the Chang'an sign and started to accelerate.

 A few seconds later, his speed reached 400 meters per second, which was immediately noticed by the host and guest experts.

 “Ji Xinghuo has sped up!”

 “Oh my God!”

The host shouted in disbelief: "He can still accelerate. How did he do it?"

In fact, Ji Xinghuo's speed of Mach 1 has exceeded their expectations. They thought that Ji Xinghuo's star power was about to reach its bottom just to be able to persist to Chang'an, but it turned out that he was faster when he arrived in Chang'an.

On the screen, Ji Xinghuo in the drone footage showed no difficulty at all, and his expression was very relaxed.

 His speed remains stable at 400 meters per second, almost unchanged.

 “It’s so stable!”

 An expert sighed: "I have been paying attention to Ji Xinghuo's speed. His stability is simply terrifying, and his control is like a machine, not a human being."

 “He has not violated the rules even once!”

“Even the Sun King committed two violations and was given a two-minute penalty.”

With the attention of hundreds of millions of viewers, Ji Xinghuo quickly closed the distance with the flying artist. Just over 20 minutes after running out of Chang'an, he caught up with Jose Morales in Jinyang City.

Ji Xinghuo ran side by side with the other person on the highway, keeping relatively still, and waved to the other person.

 This scene was also filmed.

"Ha ha ha ha…"

 “The boomerang hit him in the face!”

"Cool!"

Countless spectators burst out laughing, especially the citizens of the Asia-Pacific Community, who felt very relieved. Jose Morales' face was ugly. He didn't speak and silently speeded up, not wanting to be thrown away by Ji Xinghuo.

This disrupted Jose's schedule, because now was the time for him to recover his star power and physical strength.

What annoyed him the most was that he found that he couldn't catch up.

Ji Xinghuo's current speed exceeded his maximum speed. Even if he did not hesitate to use his star power, he could only watch Ji Xinghuo getting further and further away from him until he disappeared from sight, while his running rhythm collapsed.

 At around one o'clock in the morning, Ji Xinghuo ran to his old capital.

Amid the cheers of many spectators in the old capital, he passed through this historic and cultural city. After exiting the city, he turned and ran southward along the Bohai Coast.

 Along the way, we passed through Mingzhu, Rongcheng, Guangdong Bay, Hanoi, Phnom Penh, Bangkok and other domestic cities, and ran into the southeastern peninsula.

 At dawn.

Ji Xinghuo has arrived at the Strait of Malacca, where he overtook "Arrow Edge" Maxim Kalinen and returned to fourth place.

 He turned west here and spent another two hours entering the South Asian Union.

The race route on the subcontinental peninsula basically runs along the coast. When Ji Xinghuo arrived at the southernmost city on the peninsula, he was halfway through the race. He had already run for 16 hours and it was expected to take 30 hours to finish.

 At this time, the Sun King had already reached the Arabian Peninsula.

Ji Xinghuo was thrown 6,000 kilometers away.

 Looks like the outcome is decided.

No matter the host, experts, or global audiences, they all believe that there is not much suspense in this global marathon.

Even the most competitive Freelander has slowed down over the past few hours and is more than 1,000 kilometers away from the Sun King.

 But no one gave up.

Ji Xinghuo accelerated slightly again. More than four hours later, he ran to the north shore of the Persian Gulf, where he caught up with Luo Yimeng.

 She turned back in front, and her voice reached Ji Xinghuo's ears, "We don't have much time left."

 At this moment, the Sun King is in the middle of Africa.

 He ​​arrived at Lake Victoria on the upper reaches of the Nile River, with less than 10,000 kilometers left to the finish line. At his speed, he could run back to Ivangrad and reach the finish line in only about six hours.

Ji Xinghuo nodded slightly.

Luo Yimeng didn't understand what he meant, and was about to ask again when he saw Ji Xinghuo's speed suddenly surged, surpassing him in a blink of an eye, and he was still accelerating crazily, getting faster and faster, and then he could no longer be seen.

 Bang bang bang…

 The sound of explosive footsteps echoed around.

Where Ji Xinghuo ran, a series of large craters with a diameter of two to three meters were left on the ground, splashing up large amounts of dust, which were then swept up into the sky by the violent airflow, as if a tornado had struck.

 “At least Mach 3!”

Luo Yimeng was stunned. This was faster than her full power!
