Under the black night sky, amidst the towering skyscrapers, a sports car sped forward and made a sharp drift to the left.

A whistling sound came from above, a shadow passed by, and the Giant Scythe smashed into the spot where the sports car had just been. Yu Lan and Xiao Xinzhu, with agility attributes over four hundred, could almost keep up with the speeding sports car just by running.

Xu Xiaoyou silently observed their positions through the rear-view mirror, and at the moment their running figures appeared on both sides of the sports car, she abruptly turned the steering wheel, pressed the clutch, and shifted gears to slow down.

Because all this happened so quickly, the sports car seemed to be thrown backward at an angle, instantly breaking away from their encirclement.

Xu Xiaoyou remained calm and composed, her hands swiftly operating. In a blink of an eye, the sports car that had just landed and wasn't yet stable swerved its tail, the sixteen-cylinder engine lifted and fell like a pile driver, flames pulling apart and exploding, with the power spreading along the pipelines throughout the entire car body.

The sports car, like a knight reining in its warhorse, turned, roared, and accelerated toward another direction!

In the blink of an eye, the two were left far behind.

Xiao Xinzhu pulled with both hands, and the pre-arranged silk threads rang with a hum, instantly straightened and swept forward, speeding toward the sports car like the wind!

Xu Xiaoyou had already anticipated this and lightly placed the previously drawn "Fireball Bombardment" on the steering wheel. The explosive flames spread from the steering wheel to the dashboard, seats, and car body. With a bang, the exterior of the whole car was covered with raging flames, and the black coating began to burn.

Amidst the billowing smoke, the car's headlights mirrored the blood-red eyes of a warhorse, and the sports car screeched as it broke through the smoke and charged out.

The sweeping silk threads were melted and snapped by the searing heat of thousands of degrees.

"You can see, the Dark Gold Rose contestant executed a rear brake gear drift to shake off Yu Lan and Xiao Xinzhu. Can she escape tonight's predicament!"

The enthusiastic voice of the commentator echoed between the buildings, and the projection on the big screen flashed in the night. The view quickly zoomed in, and the face of a blonde girl appeared in everyone's eyes.

"Handsome! The Dark Gold Rose's skills are always top-notch!"

"Come on, don't forget that your Dark Gold Rose is being chased and fleeing right now."

"That's not right, the Assassin's Creed's Divine Gift is disabled, and with the Divine Gift activated, Dark Gold Rose should have the ability to take on two. Why isn't she fighting back?"

"Who knows, maybe Dark Gold Rose just wants to toy with Assassin's Creed, deliberately not fighting back. It's not her first time doing this."

"Don't be fooled by her appearance, she's certainly doing this to boost her odds and make a big profit. She'd do anything for money." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

"Hang, what do you think?" Nanjia Wood turned to ask.

Analysts around cast puzzled looks.

Nanjia Wood rubbed his forehead, only then realizing that Lu Shuhang was at the race track.

Most people were focused on the game watching Xu Xiaoyou, only Nanjia Wood's gaze was fixed on a screen in the corner belonging to the young man.

Perhaps the other's idea was correct. Dark Gold Rose was not deliberately refraining from fighting back to raise her odds, but she simply had no way to fight back as those mysterious abilities all came from her artifacts.

And he noticed more minute details.

Two hours ago, Dark Gold Rose's wealth was 3500￥, but now it stands at 300￥. During this time, she opened a bottle of white wine in the private box, valued at exactly 3200￥.

This particular detail aroused his suspicion, as his understanding of Dark Gold Rose's personality indicated that doing such a thing seemed reasonable but was, in fact, not appropriate.

She cared about her quality of life, yet would never do such futile things at critical moments. Compared to alcohol, coffee or tea that helps enhance focus and doesn't interfere with her judgment would be more to her liking.

Nanjia Wood was convinced that Dark Gold Rose was definitely covering something up by doing this.

That bottle of white wine was not 'purchased' by her, but by that woman named Isabella for her.

Nanjia Wood recalled that from the time Xu Xiaoyou was attacked to now, she'd used two 'mysterious' abilities: the abrupt rise in agility attributes, and her most famous fire control.

So strange, he couldn't help but connect these two abilities to Dark Gold Rose's suddenly vanished wealth.

Nanjia Wood was contemplating, and Xu Xiaoyou on the track was also calmly considering the follow-up countermeasures.

She could sense that Yu Lan and Xiao Xinzhu were trying various methods to herd her in a specific direction.

This reinforced her previous judgment that Lu Shuhang's 'Assassin God' didn't work globally but had a distance range limitation.

By doing this, it indicated Lu Shuhang was heading in her direction. They hoped to push her into the range of the Assassin God.

If she really stepped into the range of the Assassin God, Lu Shuhang could instantly activate the Shifting Form and Shadow ability, bringing himself and Four-leaf Phoenix Tree there at the same time. She would likely be trapped under the siege of three to four... or even five Assassin's Creed members, as Zhou Zhao's attacks could span the entire map, leaving no chance of breaking through the blockade.

Even if it dragged on, Assassin's Creed could wear her out within the encirclement.

Not only now, but even in her peak state, she couldn't handle the assault of five Assassin's Creed members at once.

This ambush was her carelessness, but it allowed her to assess that Assassin's Creed had some artifacts to accurately monitor their exact positions.

Such large-scale, map-wide searching artifacts surely wouldn't be without limits, either having a usage cap, automatically destroyed after exceeding a certain number of uses, or an exceedingly long cooldown, only usable once per day.

Thinking of this, Xu Xiaoyou calmly spoke:

"Lu Shuhang, even if you're hurrying over now, you won't make it in time."

The audience, hearing her words, was bewildered, not understanding why Xu Xiaoyou suddenly started talking to Lu Shuhang in the void, nor how she deduced Lu Shuhang was heading in her direction.

Lu Shuhang slightly narrowed his eyes, saying nothing, as his dark figure flew over the buildings and across a giant screen. Moments ago, he had handed over the captured man to the Disciplinary Officer, just as Xu Xiaoyou said, he was currently heading in her direction.

He soon guessed how the other party learned of his intentions, also realizing that she knew they had a map-wide searching artifact.

—"Horus's Eagle Eye"

With a cooldown of up to 24 hours, once activated, it cleared the map fog for 30 seconds, sharing sight with all in-team members. It was through this artifact that they pinpointed Dark Gold Rose's location at the Night Rose Sea.

"That's hard to say, Chairman Xu," Lu Shuhang responded.

As a tournament highlight, team captains could directly communicate, including exchanging trash talk.

Just then, the next sentence from Xu Xiaoyou made his body slightly tremble.

"So confident, it seems Four-leaf Phoenix Tree is already close to your Assassin God's range. Is it necessary to go to such great lengths to target just me with five people?"

"With the help of Assassin God and Divine Speed Power, you can quickly reach my position. But what if your teammate Four-leaf Phoenix Tree is about to encounter a little trouble?"
