She took the cell phone and saw that the official account of the "angel" team had posted an announcement two hours ago, all in English. It roughly meant that Lucine’s live broadcast this time would feature a mysterious guest.
Although it said mysterious, they still revealed some information to pique the interest of fans and passersby.
The subtly misleading wording, however, caught Chi Gui’s attention.
"Dominating Huaxia’s national downhill tracks for five consecutive years"
"Known for a flamboyant racing style, ensuring speed while showing off skills"
"Handsome looks, with a huge fan base of die-hard fans worldwide"
"Disappeared from the public eye after a serious injury a year ago, with no one knowing his whereabouts since"
Chi Gui raised an eyebrow. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novelFɪre.net
Lu You had been observing Chi Gui’s expression. Seeing this, he gestured to Chi Gui, "Don’t you think this guest sounds a lot like ’Deep Sea,’ one of the Five Gods from back in the day?"
Five years ago, racing wasn’t as popular as it is now, yet there was already a massive global following of enthusiastic fans and hot interest.
Of course, at that time, the racers were truly passionate about racing. Each one was fully invested in studying cars, tracks, and techniques, unlike now, where many racers are just in it for fame and money, with mediocre skills but plenty of underserved renown.
And in that era where everyone was a racer of real strength, the globally recognized "Five Gods" were born.
The Five Gods came from all over the world.
Ranked first was the most mysterious "Hunter," whose real identity remains unknown to most to this day.
Second was "Death God," whose level of secrecy was second only to "Hunter." To this day, many people, including Lu You, only know that "Deep Sea" is a man.
Following them were "Universe" from M country, "Vortex" from L country, and "Deep Sea" from Y country.
"Deep Sea" was ranked fifth but had the most amiable and free-spirited personality among the Five Gods, plus a handsome face, making him the one with the most female fans amongst them.
This was something "Universe" had once bitterly complained about.
However, as the racing industry grew, "Universe" was signed by a wealthy club team from M country and became a professional racer, currently ranked second in the world, frequently complained about by Lu You and Chi Gui, whom he consistently outperformed.
"Vortex" disliked being bound to racing, used his fame to become a globally known broadcaster, and occasionally was invited by professional teams to coach for a few days, living a very comfortable life.
"Deep Sea" suffered a serious injury in one race, was taken to the hospital, and disappeared from the public view.
As for "Hunter" and "Death God," they both mysteriously vanished at the height of their careers, and to this day are legends within the racing world.
Seeing the information revealed by Lucine’s team, Chi Gui’s first reaction was also "Deep Sea."
However, she just thought about it without much sentiment.
Back in the day, racing was just a hobby for her, something casual without any intention of developing friendships.
Even Lu You was only an accident.
After speaking, Lu You felt that such a judgement based purely on these keywords wasn’t very reliable: "But it might just be a coincidence..."
He hadn’t finished speaking when he saw Kyle walking over with a phone, his face looking unpleasant.
"What’s wrong?" Lu You immediately became alert.
Kyle said gravely, "It’s confirmed, the guest Lucine invited is ’Deep Sea.’ And this ’Deep Sea,’ three months ago, was poached by Maxi to become their team’s coach!"
