The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

Chi Cheng glanced at it and, almost without hesitation, chose the second option.

Do we even need to choose?

How can a great man remain subservient to others for long?

What's the point of joining someone else's team and starting from immense wealth?

Are you kidding me? This is becoming a management game!

"I've been working for others for many years in real life."

"Now you're making me work for NPCs just to play a game?"

You have chosen to... build your own fleet!

Once this selection is confirmed, this save file cannot be changed.

Is this confirmed?

Chi Cheng did not hesitate at all.

"Sure!"

next second.

The scene suddenly changed.

The spacious college classroom from before slowly faded away, replaced by a garage that looked somewhat shabby.

The floor was made of cement, the door was rolled up, and there were several tool cabinets that looked like they had been used for many years. There were also a few tires piled up in the corner.

Congratulations on officially creating your personal car fleet!

Please name your racing team.

Chi Cheng stared at the input box in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"The team name..."

You can't mess with this.

If I ever train a driver to become a world champion, and he stands on the podium, the announcer will call out his name.

If you get it too casually, what if it becomes really popular later? You'll regret it for the rest of your life.

"Long-time viewers already know what we're up to!"

After saying that, he immediately demonstrated his consistent naming skills and solemnly typed in three characters.

Magic Castle

The live stream was silent for half a second, then the chat was flooded with comments.

【? ? ? ? 】

[You thought of this after all that time?]

【You call yourself the Magic Fairy Castle? Are you just messing around with the little fairies here?】

[That makes perfect sense! Ever since the racing era, Magic Fairy Castle has been known as a fortress!]

[I suggest calling it Prince Cheng's Mansion; it aligns perfectly with your aesthetic sense.]

[The house has collapsed! What happened to my great E dynasty?!]

Brothers, you see? This is what happens when you don't read enough books.

Chi Cheng didn't even blush.

"What do you know?"

"Simple, direct, and easy to remember!"

"When the commentator says 'Congratulations to Magic Castle for winning the World Team Championship' at the World Finals, you'll know how powerful this name is."

After saying that, he nodded in satisfaction.

[Team name confirmed!]

[Magic Fairy Castle is officially established!]

Immediately afterwards, a new notification popped up again.

[Current Team Class: F]

Current funds: 100000

Current drivers: 0

Current car: 0

Current sponsors: 0

Current eligibility for the competition: None

"hiss……"

"So you really have nothing? Then this challenge seems a bit difficult for me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a screen on the garage wall that had been black slowly lit up.

[Currently available number of Driver Discovery Rooms to build: 1]

[Currently explorable area: Initial world]

Subsequently, a new mission for new recruits was officially presented to Chi Cheng.

[Newcomer Mission: Build a driver discovery room and find your first driver!]

Go and discover it!

Chi Cheng's eyes slowly lit up as he looked at the last sentence.

We can buy the car later, negotiate sponsorships later, and gradually acquire competition qualifications.

But we must be very careful in finding this driver!

After all, this is the future founding father of Magic Fairy Castle.

Chi Cheng was not going to just shove anyone into the car.

The screen on the garage wall flickered slightly, and a detailed introduction to the [Driver Discovery Room] quickly appeared in front of him.

Driver Discovery Room

[The infrastructure used by the team to find, observe, and discover potential drivers.]

[Once the discovery room is established, it will continue to explore the current area and identify potential racing targets among the local residents.]

The cultural environment, lifestyle, and terrain conditions of different regions will influence the number of local drivers, their skill levels, and the unique terms that may appear.

[Currently available construction quantity: 1]

Is it possible to build only one at the moment?

Then we absolutely cannot act recklessly.

After all, according to the game's logic, if you leave the driver discovery room somewhere, it means you'll have to poach drivers from that place for a considerable period of time.

Can the people raised in a big city where you're stuck in traffic every morning and evening rush hour be the same as those raised in a place where you have to drive through winding mountain roads from a young age?

Can they be the same?

The impact of the environment on people is very real.

Chi Cheng quickly clicked on "Select Construction Area".

The next second, countless points of light emerged from above the garage, and planets and fragments of the world connected with each other, eventually forming a huge holographic star map that covered the entire sky above the garage.

Currently, only one world can be selected as the initial discovery area for the driver. More areas will be gradually unlocked as the team level increases.

"Holy crap..."

Chi Cheng looked up at the slowly rotating planets and dimensional fragments above him and couldn't help but let out a surprised exclamation, as if he had never seen anything like it before.

Chi Cheng excitedly reached out and gently fiddled with the star map.

As he moved, one classic and outrageous IP world moment after another appeared on the screen of the live broadcast.

Gotham World

"The local people are kind and honest, and there is an abundance of talented people. The drivers here usually have extremely strong resilience and night driving skills. But please note: drivers in this region are very prone to paranoia, mental instability, or antisocial personality disorder. And the probability of encountering an explosion during a race is increased by 300%."

Bear Ridge

"A testing ground for the law of the jungle. Candidates here possess physiques and wild instincts far exceeding those of humans, with maximum impact resistance. But please note: recruiting non-human drivers requires an additional 'Interspecies Competition Permit,' and drivers are highly susceptible to triggering negative attributes such as an insatiable sweet tooth."

【Akina Mountain Area】

"A mecca for drift enthusiasts. The young people here almost all have a pretty good foundation in gutter cornering. But be aware: candidates in this area generally have traits like handsome but expressionless, obsessive-compulsive disorder related to paper cups, and are extremely reliant on a particular old car model."

【Green Grassland】

"What appears to be a peaceful, green grassland actually harbors the world's top mechanical inventors and the fastest-running creatures. The drivers here typically possess exceptional straight-line acceleration potential and incredible vehicle modification talent. Frequently used phrase: 'I'll definitely be back, Sheep Village Parkour King…'"

Hulushan

"A mysterious mountain that suppresses a millennia-old demon. The mountain roads in this area are extremely rugged and steep. Candidates here are often born with extraordinary abilities, possessing superpowers beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Frequently used terms include: copper head and iron arms, impervious to water and fire... This world boasts a classic race: the Seven-Colored Hairpin Bend!"

【…】

Seeing these diverse and bizarrely styled selectable areas, the live stream chat instantly erupted in a frenzy.

Chi Cheng stared at the ranking, and his whole body perked up.

Goodness, they really can be found everywhere.

[Seriously, how much money did Chaoxi actually spend on acquiring the copyright?! This crossover is giving me the creeps!]

What's the point of having a head of copper and arms of iron to drive a race car? After a crash, the person can still keep running, right?

[A treasure trove of Frankenstein's monsters, huh?! You really have so many worlds to choose from!]

【Mount Akina! Do you even need to consider a place like that? If you're not going to Mount Akina to recruit drivers, what kind of racing game are you playing?】

[I disagree! I think we should choose Bear Ridge! Recruit Xiong Da and Xiong Er as drivers! Make Bald Qiang the chief mechanic—this setup is absolutely unbeatable!]

Chi Cheng did not make a choice immediately.

He stood beneath that enormous star map, glancing between Mount Akina and Bear Ridge, and for the first time truly grasped just how vast this game was.

This is only the world he can choose at the beginning; he hasn't even seen them all yet!

Moreover, according to the introduction, each world not only has different people, but also different terms, different races, and even the local environment will affect the drivers.

Now, choosing where to go has truly become an art.
