YM778.TV Chapter 165 - Humming.
Yang Dao\'s humming surprised the reporter but she noticed the shock on Viktor\'s face. The old man suddenly started to laugh. He turned his head to a man standing a few pit stops away and yelled, "Sylvan, the humming is back."
His loud voice attracted the man and he had a strange expression on his face. He did not clearly hear what Viktor was saying. Suddenly a technician came and said something to the man. His strange expression turned into a shock. Soon, the pit crew turned on the secondary listening channel and they heard a humm sound being broadcasted by the commentators.
...
On the track, Yang Dao was humming as he drove. His humming was not useless and neither was it just for his entertainment. As he hummed in sync with the vehicle, he started to notice the slight time-lapse in his control. Even after Micro-control, he was not completely at the peak of his skills.
Soon, he finished a lap. His timing improved by milliseconds. The boy did not stop and kept running the laps faster and faster, every lap was getting faster by a few milliseconds. Viktor glanced at the timesheet and gasped. He then sighed and said, "This kid is going for the all-time best. he is ready for a refuel and tire change. Get ready."
The crew yelled, "Yes."
Yang Dao completed the fifteenth lap and he could see the tail of the racers. He asked Viktor, "Chief, how fast can they finish the stop?"
Viktor replied, "Two seconds." his voice was calm. Even if there were no races the crew would also train regularly.
Yang Dao nodded and said, "I am coming in then." with that said, he entered the pit lane. The others will be coming in after him. As soon as the car stopped the pit crew jumped into action. The boy had his gaze fixed to the stop and go board in front of him. Just as he took a deep breath the stop board was retracted and the boy stepped onto the accelerator.
He was so focused on the race that he could not hear any other sound. His sprints became faster and the cornering became sharp. Soon, within half a minute he caught up to the tail of the rest of the racers.
The racer at the end did have no idea that as soon as he would turn, He would be overtaken from the outside. Yang Dao was weaving through the traffic. He was humming as he focused more. He even made the clicking noises when he was shifting gear. But it was all in his mind.
Viktor was shocked, he was about to ask the former something when he heard a loud cheer from the kids among the VIPs.
"THE SILENT GHOST."
He could not help but turn to them and asked, "Hey kids, what ghost?"
Ray spoke up, "He will be silent and move like a ghost. The silent ghost. Just watch it."
...
On the track, Yang Dao moved like a specter. The drivers did not even see when he came behind them, matched their driving pattern, and slipped past them. This shocked the whole crowd and the experts watching this event.
Viktor was surprised and overwhelmed with great joy. He sighed as he sat down in front of a monitor, "This kid, is a genius. He evolved the Humming."
Karl asked him, "How?"
Viktor said, "When someone hums in sync with their vehicle they find some flaws in their driving and optimize it. These faults are basically timing. Now, what is he doing? He catches up to them, syncs his motions with them, finds out the flaws, and then passes them. even Sylvan could not do it back in those days."
This was Yang Dao\'s genius. He took up a technique, mastered it, and even improved it.
...
Back on the track, Yang Dao came to second place and found that Mika was rushing ahead and she was leading. The girl realized that she was too concentrated on Yang Dao, at this moment she also concluded was that if she focused on doing her best, only then can she catch up to Yang Dao. She was leading by quarter lap, while Yang Dao was leading by a full lap.
Yang Dao\'s car sound was lower than the other people\'s, this was noticed by some people and they asked why this was happening? Viktor could only shrug. They had no idea. While the others were at a loss. Feng Yun mumbled, "Elemental Assistance."
Ryu Jinshi nodded as he said, "The endowment of the heavens, as the dao child gets focused the elements themselves will help him."
...
On the 26th lap, Yang Dao caught up with Mika. The boy began the chase without any delays. he passed Mika, but the girl was not an easy one too. She would keep up and try to pass him as well. The two soon forgot that they were racing. They were having fun with it.
But on the 27th lap, Yang Dao broke away and he extended his lead and by the 30th lap, he has vanished from Mika\'s eyesight once again. She did not give, just then she heard a voice in her helmet, "Mika, pit stop. The tires are too hot to continue."
The girl nodded and drove back to the pit stop. She happened to see Yang Dao\'s car merging with the track after a pit stop. She was eager to catch up with him and skipped the pit stop. Her grandfather yelled in the microphone, "MIKA, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
Mika ignored his voice and kept racing, suddenly it started raining. The girl noticed that the car has become somewhat slippery. Her lead gradually shortened but she still managed to keep the position of second place. Soon she entered the pit, they changed the car tires and she continued racing again.
Her eyes kept looking for that boy to show up but to no avail. She did not know that if she was fifty percent ahead of the rest then Yang Dao was hundred percent ahead of her. The boy was running among the traffic again by the time they had 40th lap.
