The Herta Was Too Powerful, Sparkle in Trouble

Outside the car window stretched an endless world of ice and snow.

The thick snow covered the earth, making it look like a pure and silent white desert.

The Maybach drove exceptionally smoothly across the icy plain, its tires gripping the ground firmly without the slightest sign of slipping.

This is not due to the vehicle's inherent performance, but rather because the Herta behind the vehicle) made extensive modifications to the entire vehicle.

From specially designed low-temperature anti-skid tires to a retuned powertrain, it may even incorporate some unconventional technologies.

For a genius like her, transforming a luxury car into a conqueror of ice and snow is a piece of cake.

As the vehicle slowly came to a stop, a thin layer of fog had condensed on the inside of the windows, separating the interior of the vehicle from the ice field outside into two different worlds.

The Herta, dressed in a light new outfit, lay lazily on the spacious leather seat in the back, its face flushed with satisfaction and excitement, its eyes gazing dreamily at the roof.

She was in excellent condition, radiating a vibrant energy.

In contrast, Lin Hai appeared somewhat tired.

Just as the Herta had predicted, in this arena that belonged to her, her power and physique were fully unleashed.

Although Lin Hai's physical abilities far surpassed those of ordinary people, he still seemed somewhat outmatched by the home advantage of the Herta.

After their close sparring session, Lin Hai had to admit that he had indeed been at a disadvantage.

"I told you, I have an absolute advantage here."

The Herta turned his head, a victor's smile on his face, and looked at Lin Hai, his tone both smug and provocative.

Lin Hai shook his head with a wry smile, "Your advantage is indeed a bit too overwhelming."

He rubbed his slightly sore shoulders, feeling the lingering excitement within him.

"And this is with me holding back," The Herta chuckled. "If I were to go all out, you might find it even more difficult."

"It seems that future sparring matches will be more enjoyable if they take place on my home turf."

"Don't you feel a greater sense of accomplishment when you're on your own turf?"

Lin Hai readily admitted, "That's indeed the case."

During the conversation, the Herta had already gotten up from the back seat and nimbly moved to the driver's seat.

She started the engine, gripped the steering wheel with both hands, and her eyes sharpened.

"Let's experience something more exciting."

As soon as she finished speaking, she floored the accelerator.

The modified Maybach let out a low growl and instantly unleashed astonishing speed.

The numbers on the dashboard jumped wildly, eventually stabilizing at an astonishing 600 kilometers per hour!

This far exceeds the limits of the original Maybach; it is entirely the result of a heavily modified version of the Herta.

The vehicle transformed into a silver lightning bolt across the ice field, stretching the surrounding snowscape into a blurry white streak of light.

There is no road construction here.

The thick, pristine snow did nothing to hinder the Maybach's progress.

Lin Hai stretched his hand out the window, feeling the strong wind tearing at his palm as the speed brought him there. The icy airflow and the impact of the speed intertwined, immersing him in this extraordinary experience.

Ice and snow.

Speed.

Science and technology.

Beauty.

They were all around Lin Hai, and he could truly feel them.

So engrossed!

Lin Hai drove his Maybach into the underground parking garage of the residential complex.

The vehicles modified by the Herta have a very futuristic feel.

The lines and the deep hum of the engine attracted the attention of the few residents scattered around.

In the past, Lin Hai might have deliberately kept a low profile to avoid attracting attention.

Things are different now; his formidable strength has given him unprecedented confidence.

Lin Hai no longer needs to worry about attracting attention, nor does he need to deliberately display his strength.

Calm and composed.

There's no need to hide in fear.

When you reach this level of strength, your presence naturally becomes apparent.

Lin Hai parked the car and took the elevator directly to his floor.

Pushing open the door, a familiar sense of tranquility washes over you.

He went straight to the living room and sank into the soft sofa.

Brew a cup of hot tea.

Amidst the fragrant steam of tea, he sipped slowly, feeling the warmth soothe his entire body, his mind and body in a state of extreme relaxation.

In this pleasant moment, a panel silently appeared in his mind, displaying new information:

[Number of close interactions with the Herta has reached 50]

[Stage Reward Unlocked: Physical Ability x2]

A gentle yet powerful energy then spread throughout Lin Hai's body.

It was as if some kind of inner shackle had been broken, and every cell in the body was bursting with even greater vitality!

Thanks to the nourishment of the Path Power, Lin Hai's physical qualities were already far beyond those of ordinary people.

This doubling of the increase will result in a geometric progression of improvement!

It's a qualitative leap!

Lin Hai clenched his fist, feeling the power contained within it, enough to split mountains and shatter rocks.

He looked around; the house was unusually quiet.

Sparkle are neither in the bedroom nor in the bathroom.

"Did they go back to Belobog, or did they go somewhere else to play?"

As Lin Hai was pondering this, an irresistible and domineering suction force suddenly came from the void!

The scene before my eyes was distorted and fragmented!

The comfort and warmth of home were brutally replaced by unbearable heat and the pungent smell of sulfur.

The next second, Lin Hai found himself standing on a patch of scorching, dark red lava!

Beneath our feet flows lava that bubbles up from time to time.

Thick smoke billowed all around, poisonous miasma filled the air, and the air was distorted by the high temperature, creating a scene resembling hell.

"This is definitely not an ordinary volcanic crater..."

Lin Hai quickly assessed the scene and saw that as far as the eye could see, there was an endless sea of lava.

The scope is far greater than imagined.

He turned around abruptly and was shocked to find that Sparkle was standing not far behind him.

But at this moment, Sparkle's condition was clearly not right. Her face was pale, there was still a trace of blood left at the corner of her mouth, and her breathing was weak, indicating that she had suffered a serious injury.

When she saw Lin Hai, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she immediately gestured for him to be quiet.

Sparkle looked warily in a certain direction, as if she were hiding from something.

Without any hesitation, Lin Hai stepped forward and quickly pulled Sparkle into his arms.

He could feel her weakness and slight trembling.

A strong protective instinct filled Lin Hai's chest.

Regardless of the cause of this desperate situation, and regardless of the powerful enemy Sparkle had provoked, at this moment he had only one thought:

We must protect her at all costs!

Lin Hai clenched his fists, focused his mind, and prepared for battle.

Its Super Burst power is ready and can be activated at any time.

He had a crazy idea.

The ability to unleash Super Burst power multiple times in a short period of time.

Simultaneously activate the Super Burst corresponding to the Herta, Sparkle, Bronya, and Cipher.

Perhaps within 10 minutes, the combined strength of these individuals can be achieved.

That will be a whole new realm!

Lin Hai had never tried this before, but this time the situation was so dire that he didn't mind giving it a shot!
