Zone Zero: I'm invincible now that the heavenly fire has killed Nineveh!

Outer Ring Road, Wildfire Town.

It was already evening, and only a sliver of red remained on the horizon as the sun set.

A convoy of motorcycles, cars, and trucks, filled with laughter and chatter, drove in from afar; it was the group returning from their ride through Hellfire.

From this day forward, the son of Caluton has officially been recognized as the motorcycle overlord. However, the celebration banquet for the overlord requires inviting numerous forces from the outer ring, and will take considerable time to prepare.

Today, there is only one banquet held internally by the Sons of Caludon to celebrate their great success on the Hellfire Ride and to express their gratitude to their friends who helped them.

As dusk fell and the air grew colder, the enthusiasm remained undiminished.

Mayor Kasa of Wildfire had already received the news when the Hellfire Ride ended and had arranged for a venue to be prepared in advance.

A simple campfire was lit, and the orange flames illuminated the entire area.

Bernice prepares the fuel-rich drinks, so there's plenty of stock available; no need to worry.

Originally, Caesar was supposed to recommend the signature roasted lizard, but Su Chen stopped him and replaced the outer ring specialty with the Little Chef specialty he provided.

With all preparations complete, night fell completely.

Each dish, beautifully presented and generously portioned, was laid out on the tablecloth. Before Su Chen's transmigration, any one of these dishes could easily sell for 9999. Large skewers of grilled meat sat beside the fire, their golden hue glistening and their aroma filling the air.

There were also rows of specially made beverages, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.

The group sat around the campfire, enjoying themselves in the quiet night.

Su Chen was surrounded by Nicole and Ling, followed by Ambly, Billy, and Zhe. Across the fire were Caesar, Lucy, Bernice, Pai Pai, and Wright.

They form a circle connected together, appearing very small in the vastness of the universe.

"I never expected that Uncle Pompey would actually back down and relinquish his position as the hegemon."

Caesar stared blankly into space, and said with a sigh, "Perhaps this is the quality of a leader—able to take things on and let them go. I feel like I've learned another lesson."

She was somewhat disappointed, but was impressed by his demeanor.

Pompey seemed to be on a higher level than her desire for true honor.

"Actually, he only gave up on you because he approved of you. If you were an incompetent fool, he would have stopped you even if it cost him his life."

Lucy thought for a moment and then offered words of comfort.

"Thank you for your approval."

Caesar paused for a moment, feeling something was off.

She's not a fool; she has something to be proud of.

Caesar shook his head, deciding not to think about it anymore.

She picked up a glass of fuel-infused beverage and said to the crowd with a confident air, "The Son of Caludon's victory in the Hellfire Ride today is inseparable from everyone's joint efforts."

"Thank you Su Chen for helping us modify the motorcycle, thank you Rope Craftsman for planning our route, thank you Nicole for mobilizing resources, and thank you to all the partners of Son of Caludon for their contributions!"

"Here, I raise a toast to you all!"

She raised her glass and downed it in one gulp.

Without the help of these friends, she would probably have been overwhelmed and ended up failing miserably in this Hellfire Ride.

Fortunately, with everyone's help, this time it had a perfect ending.

"There's no need to be so polite. We're all friends, so helping each other is only natural."

Nicole picked up her cup and squinted as she spoke.

"That's right, it feels great to be able to enjoy a thrilling motorcycle race here."

Su Chen nodded and said with a smile.

He's had a pretty good time these past few days; his vacation on the outer ring road is going well.

"Really? As long as it makes everyone happy!"

Caesar smiled and said sincerely.

“These days on the outer ring road, we have seen many different sights. It has been a really good time.”

Zhe looked at the flickering flames before him and couldn't help but sigh.

“Yes, yes, the scenery on the outer ring road is really unique.” Ling sat next to Su Chen and nodded in agreement.

During these days, they collected data and, incidentally, enjoyed the scenery along the way. That unique wildness gave them a sense of freedom.

Ling handed Su Chen a glass of alcoholic beverage and then one for herself, smiling brightly, "But let's not talk about that anymore. There's so much good food tonight, and the alcoholic beverages are unlimited. Let's drink until we drop!"

"You won't come home until you're drunk!"

Everyone raised their glasses in unison, the multicolored liquids swirling in the straight-sided glasses, reflecting a vibrant light under the orange campfire.

At this moment, around the campfire, in such an atmosphere, someone would always open their mouth and tell some interesting stories.

“This is wonderful. It’s been a long time since I’ve had such delicious food.” Pai Pai stuffed a piece of roasted lamb chop into his mouth and said with great enjoyment, “I remember the last time I ate something like this was at the Black Panther organization’s base.”

"That night I was so tired and hungry, the food I ate felt like it was elevated."

"Speaking of which, it was truly an unforgettable experience."

There was a nostalgic look in her eyes, like a middle-aged person reminiscing about childhood, even though it was only a few weeks ago.

If it weren't for that misunderstanding, they probably wouldn't have met a friend like Su Chen.

Although the process was somewhat tortuous, the result was very good.

"Hey, there's nothing to talk about with this! Let bygones be bygones, right?"

Lucy panicked and stopped Pai Pai from continuing.

Pai Pai didn't care about what happened that day, but she cared a lot.

The thought of that embarrassing scene gave her an urge to die.

"What is it? Tell me about it."

Nicole, being quite gossipy, leaned closer and asked curiously.

That was a place Su Chen and Anbi had visited together, and it was there that they met the son of Caluton.

She was quite curious about this experience, but unfortunately, Anbi was a quiet person, and when she asked, her answers were dry and uninteresting.

"Actually, it's nothing," Pai Pai said casually, her eyes still sleepy. "It's just that there was a misunderstanding back then, and everyone was tied up. After that..."

"Um!"

"do not talk!"

Lucy quickly covered Pai Pai's mouth and said sternly, "After being tied up, my hands hurt a lot from being bound, and I don't want to think about it anymore."

She glanced at Su Chen furtively, feeling extremely ashamed.

Being tied up was humiliating enough, let alone being fed afterwards, not to mention her scathing remarks.

Let alone saying it in public, you can't even think about it yourself!

"Okay, that's it."

Pai Pai sighed.

As expected, children are just children; they can't see things as clearly as adults.

And at this time.

Although we didn't hear about the embarrassing things Lucy didn't want others to know, seeing this proud young lady's ashamed appearance was still something to laugh about.

"Come on, we're happy today, let's have a few more drinks."

Ling then got Su Chen another glass of alcoholic beverage and said with a grin.

"I'm fine drinking more, you should drink less."

Su Chen shook his head, holding the alcoholic beverage, looking quite relaxed.

"No way, I'm happy today, I want to have a few more drinks."

Ling's face was very red, and it was hard to tell whether she was drunk or what.

She's already had five drinks and is feeling quite tipsy.

They say alcohol emboldens cowards, and she thinks that's true.
