183: There must be a reason why leather pants are worn over cotton pants.
What he didn't expect was that just as he was about to refuse, Mike suddenly said meaningfully, “Holy crap, Rust, are you stupid? Are you letting him use his rolls-royce? Or those land rover range rovers? That’s hilarious. Such flimsy vehicles, it’s not that I look down on him, but they’ll be blown up like fireworks as soon as they get on the Death Highway.”
“And look at his Bodyguards. They look decent, but I wonder if it’s just for show. Racing? Can they even do that? Such trash doesn't deserve to be on the Death Highway.”
Although he was talking about the Bodyguards, he was looking at Wang Shaojun.
So, the other party’s intention was very clear. This was a provocation to Wang Shaojun, probably to provoke Young Lord to participate and then teach him a lesson.
Hearing Mike's words, the words that Wang Shaojun was about to say were swallowed back.
He chuckled, “Since Young Master Mike has said so, then I can’t not play. But you all have stakes, and if I don't, wouldn’t that be boring?
How about this? I won’t bet too much, just 2.5 billion us dollars.”
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar. 2.5 billion us dollars, isn't that a lot?
“Who is he? How dare he bet so much?”
“Rust mentioned him, I think his name is Wang Shaojun.”
“Wang Shaojun? Is there such a person in the US? Why have I never heard of him?”
“Whether you’ve heard of him or not, I don't know, but I do know that since he can be Rust’s friend, his identity must not be simple.”
“Hehe, there’s a good show to watch.”
Not to mention them, even Mike didn't expect Wang Shaojun to be like this.
Now he was a bit unsure about Wang Shaojun, but since things had come to this, he couldn’t back down.
Otherwise, how could he face people in the future? Thinking of this, he immediately replied coldly, “Alright, then 2.5 billion us dollars.”
With that, he snorted and stopped talking.
At the same time!
Number Two on the Death Highway breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that the race was paused.
In this situation, the race being paused must have been proposed by Mike. This way, they still had a chance to win, and he naturally still had a chance to survive.
Looking at the wreckage of the race cars behind him, the world racing champion couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
Winning this race was a hundred times harder than winning a world championship.
If it weren't for his strong psychological fortitude, he might have already peed his pants.
Can you imagine the feeling when a cannonball whizzes past you in that instant?
It was a feeling like falling into an ice cave, like the scythe of death pressed against your neck, cold and bone-chilling.
In contrast, Rust looked at Wang Shaojun with some surprise. He didn't expect Wang Shaojun to actually agree.
Not only did he agree, but the stake was also 2.5 billion us dollars.
“Hey, Wang, don’t worry, 2.5 billion us dollars, I won’t let you lose, because... this is Oregon State. Mike won't be able to get a car here that can beat a tank. You can just send any car up there.”
Hearing this, Wang Shaojun didn't explain much, just nodded gently.
He had always been curious about the secret weapon on the rolls-royce that the system mentioned. He hadn't had a chance to try it out, but this time he could finally see its true face.
Time slowly passed!
Everyone on the scene watched the countdown to the restart of the race, wondering what kind of car Mike would find.
As Rust said, this was Oregon State, so it was unlikely that the other party could find any heavy firepower weapons.
Oh no!
Not weapons, but cars!
“Do you think Mike has a good chance of winning?”
“Hard to say, it depends on what kind of car the other party can get.”
“What kind of car? Don’t be silly, this is Oregon State.”
“Hey, guys, I say, have you forgotten about someone else? Rust’s friend is going to send a car out, isn’t he? Maybe he’ll be the ultimate winner, hahahaha.”
Everyone heard the sarcastic tone of the other party and understood that they were being teased.
They couldn't help but burst into laughter, showing no regard for Wang Shaojun’s feelings.
“Hahahahaha, fuck, are you trying to make me die of laughter? If his car can remain perfectly intact, I’ll kneel down and call him daddy.”
“That’s right, his car will be the first one to be blown up like fireworks.”
Everyone’s words, one after another, reached Wang Shaojun’s ears.
Wang Shaojun’s face showed no great reaction, but Butler Wei, who was by his side, frowned.
Just then, the ground beneath their feet suddenly vibrated slightly.
Everyone felt it and turned their heads to look, only to see two tanks, identical to Rust’s, slowly approaching.
Everyone looked at the two iron lumps in front of them, their faces full of disbelief.
It wasn’t that they hadn’t seen these things before; what shocked them was that these were clearly brought by Mike, and… this was Oregon State!
The most shocked person was Rust. He had never expected Mike to be able to get tanks in such a short time.
He couldn't help but wonder if this guy's family's influence had reached Oregon State?
The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. He had already made up his mind to have his father investigate when he returned, especially the origin of these two tanks.
Mike looked at Rust’s ugly expression and felt secretly pleased. These tanks were obtained by bribing an officer in the military.
As for whether his family had influence in the military here, he wasn't very clear.
The reason he was able to get them so quickly was all thanks to Rust’s reminder.
It turned out that after Rust had airlifted the tank, he had started preparing, otherwise he really wouldn't have been able to do anything about Rust.
“Rust, how about it? Now it’s two to one. In this terrain, you have no chance of winning.”
Rust scoffed at Mike's words.
“Don’t waste time. The time is up. Let the race continue.”
He then turned to Wang Shaojun and said, “Wang, which car do you plan to send?”
Hearing this, Wang Shaojun’s lips curved into a smile. He raised his hand and pointed to his own car, saying indifferently, “That one!”
Everyone looked at the calm and composed expression on his face and couldn't help but feel curious.
A tank against a rolls-royce, the former clearly wins, but why was the other party still so calm?
2.5 billion us dollars, this was no small sum.
Was this guy indifferent to this amount of money, or was there… a hidden mystery?
Looking at Wang Shaojun’s expression, this thought unconsciously popped into everyone’s minds.
After all, if you wear leather pants over cotton pants, there must be a reason!
