Electromagnetic Tyrant

Luo Yimeng saw that Ji Xinghuo was so confident. Although he still had doubts in his heart, he didn't say anything and speeded up and ran 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 entire race and then be given a time penalty.

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 more than one minute, your results will be cancelled.

As he ran, 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.

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

Jeffrey the Freelander followed closely behind the Sun King, less than a kilometer away, biting tightly.

Luo Yimeng is third.

The speeds of these three kings are all over 400 meters per second. They belong to the first echelon and are getting farther and farther away from Ji Xinghuo.

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

When Ji Xinghuo was mentioned, they were not optimistic about it.

"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..."

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

"really."

"The round-the-world marathon is different from flying. He may be better at flying, but running on the ground restricts his speed."

"And his tactics are also lacking. He should not sprint with all his strength at the beginning. 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.”

"However, Ji Xinghuo has a very powerful advantage."

"In which direction?"

"So far, he has not violated the rules once, and the cumulative penalty time is 0. This is very rare. It shows that he has extremely strong control over his body, no less than those marathon strangers who have been training for many years."

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

"Being number one on the ladder will certainly not be that simple."

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

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

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

Several others predicted similar results.

While talking, someone else began to exert force and gradually caught up with Ji Xinghuo.

This is also a king, the "Arrow's Edge" of the New Roman Empire, named "Maxim Kalinen", ranked 24th on the list of kings.

The scene immediately switched to him, and 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 distance between the two quickly approached, and then Maxim overtook him, leaving Ji Xinghuo behind.

"Ji Xinghuo dropped to fifth place."

The host said immediately.

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."

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

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

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.

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

Of course, he couldn't miss the World Marathon that was held every four years.

But this is too slow.

"If Li Jianxia and Ji Xinghuo were competing in running, he would have already lost, and lost miserably." An expert laughed.

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."

His words were echoed.

Ridicule is ridicule, but no one dares to underestimate the strength of the king.

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.

That kind of true hexagonal king, there is only one sun king in the world.

The screen switched and the topic turned to other contestants.

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.

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, and tall buildings appeared in front of them.

The entire route has been cleared to vehicles and pedestrians.

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

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

call……

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

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

It flashed by.

Immediately, a violent shock wave hit him, and he heard a deafening sonic boom, and he couldn't see the appearance of the player at all.

On 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. He leaned forward, stepped alternately with his feet, and swung his arms. He was wearing a pair of silver and black running shoes. Every time he took a step, he would 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 exclamation and then watch his retreating shadow.

Route signs 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 him about a minute 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 didn't 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."

Information about this opponent flashed through Ji Xinghuo's mind.

Jose Morales' 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 cheers from the crowd 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 he passed Ji Xinghuo, Jose waved to Ji Xinghuo and made a "bye" gesture.

Obviously this is sarcastic.

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

Although Jose did not mean any harm, it still caused a heated discussion.

Many viewers online started laughing.

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 shore of the Caspian Sea to the border of the Star-Moon Alliance.

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

When runners of the Global Marathon cross national borders, the drones overhead will be replaced by those of the current country. This can avoid many diplomatic disputes and risks.

Running along 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.

Under the night, the super metropolis is still brightly lit, just like daylight.

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 received warm cheers.

"come on!"

"Ji Xinghuo, run quickly. You can pass 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, but he felt everyone's enthusiasm and saw his family and friends cheering for him on the roadside.

He turned on the projection screen and took a look.

He is still sixth.

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

The fastest runner, the Sun King, has now reached Pearl 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 speed up. How did he do that?"

In fact, the fact that Ji Xinghuo has maintained Mach 1 speed until now has exceeded their expectations. They thought that Ji Xinghuo's star power was about to bottom out 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 was not struggling at all, and his expression was very relaxed.

His speed remained 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 hasn't broken a rule yet!"

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

Under 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 and the other party ran side by side on the highway, staying relatively still and waving to the other party.

This scene was also filmed.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"The boomerang hit him in the face!"

"Cool!"

Countless audiences laughed, 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 regain his star power and physical strength.

What annoyed him 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, turned around after exiting the city, 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 Southeast Peninsula.

At dawn.

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

Here we turned west 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.

It looked like the outcome was decided.

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

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

But no one gave up.

Ji Xinghuo accelerated slightly again, and 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 central 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 was out of sight.

Bang bang bang...

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 explosion!
