Lola was genuinely stunned.
Her impersonation of Quake relied entirely on the reference images Noelle had left behind. But when it came to actual car modification, she knew nothing.
She had done some prior research, but car modification was extremely complex. Many of the technical terms made no sense to her, and it wasn't something she could master in a short time.
Her only consolation was that she had dabbled in amateur racing, giving her a basic understanding of cars.
Still, the intricate schematics in front of her made her head spin. She had no idea what to say.
Under her mask, her face flushed red. She hadn't expected anyone to actually pull out technical schematics at an event like this. Wasn't this a bit over the top?
Yet, all eyes were on her, expectant and eager.
For a moment, all eyes were on Lola, leaving her embarrassed and unsure how to respond.
Even Wilson was watching her expectantly, as if waiting for some earth-shattering insight.
Just as Lola was wondering how to get herself out of the awkward situation, Noelle suddenly spoke up beside her. "There are two clear flaws in your schematic.
"You reinforced the exhaust manifold here, but you need to consider lightweight materials. The fuel injection parameters at the back also need adjustment."
Noelle continued casually, arms folded, "Fix these, then focus on speed. It could double your results."
After she said that, the entire exhibition hall fell so silent that it was as if one could hear a pin drop.
The young man who had brought out the schematics widened his eyes. Following her reasoning, he looked at his own schematic and couldn't help but admire her. "Ms. Lucy, you're incredible! Just one glance and you spotted the flaws! No wonder I've been stuck—this was the issue all along!"
He was a car modification enthusiast named Asher Miller. He considered himself skilled in the world of car customization.
When he stepped forward with his schematics just now, it wasn't only to seek advice. He also wanted to show off in front of everyone.
But he hadn't expected a Cobalt Club official to have such expertise, casually pointing out his mistakes with ease.
Noelle smiled lightly. "I only know a bit about car modification, so in front of all of you, I'm just showing off a little. But Quake is the real expert."
She turned to Lola, smiling warmly. "Quake, perhaps you can offer even better advice?"
Lola, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly felt trapped again by this Lucy.
