Although many puppets of Master Laximan use "circular" wheels as the way of power output, more of them use spider legs, horse legs or other strange designs. Naturally, this is because the "magic crystal" is difficult to stabilize characteristics—if the stabilizer is not capable enough, the result of using the wheels is often that the vehicle has difficulty controlling its own speed, which eventually leads to a loss of control and crash. So these things can only be collectively referred to as "vehicle puppets" and cannot be called "vehicles"...
After numerous lessons, only Balenna and Mofengt Academy, which is best at puppetry, dare to use round wheels, and they are also the favorites to win this competition—in order to allow the "stabilizer" to dissipate heat, all vehicles basically have round wheels. Various heat dissipation metal sheets and even liquid-cooled metal pipes are exposed. The height of these "vehicle puppets" is generally more than two meters, and there are seven or eight mages around each of them who are constantly adjusting them.
And Roddy? He directly put the "Firebolt" on a cart and entered the field with four horses. When they came in to verify the entry procedures, the "Firebolt" covered with a huge gray cloth was really hard to associate it with the "vehicle puppet".
Because in terms of size, the Firebolt is like a cat squatting next to an elephant.
The mages in the auditorium gradually understood Rody's identity, but this made their discussion more heated-who would want to participate in this kind of competition without any preparation for a "rich man" and "upstart"? Can you believe how competitive he is
"There are still five minutes before the start of the game, all contestants, please make final preparations!"
As Rody lifted off the gray cloth on the surface of the "Firebolt", there was a burst of laughter from the auditorium. There is no other reason: the size of this vehicle puppet is too small, the stabilizer can't fit in it, and it still uses round tires. Is he going to crash in the square at the beginning of the game
"But although this thing is unreliable, the appearance is really simple."
"Three wheels? The 'Karen Five' of Mervent College uses eight wheels. His strange-looking thing is estimated to be finished within a kilometer."
"I bet 500 meters. He doesn't have a cooling device. He can burn the circle directly after running 500 meters. It's nothing to think about."
Listening to the discussion around her, Eveli turned her head and said to Doris: "It seems that your plan should succeed soon. After a failure, a man always wants someone to comfort him, doesn't he?"
Doris nodded immediately, with a charming smile.
But when most mages laughed at Rody, Speaker Jeremy, who was at the front of the auditorium, frowned slightly. He stared at Roddy's tricycle. His sensitivity as a "puppet master" allowed him to see that this thing had a high degree of completion, and it was definitely not a temporary toy. Moreover, the "Firebolt" seemed to have a simple body. In fact, it is because the complex mechanism is wrapped inside, leaving only the simple and streamlined car shell and rear wing on the outside. The only clue was the "suspension" structure of the front and rear wheels, but Jeremy was far away, so he couldn't confirm what it was. He would have to control the floating tower later, so it was inconvenient to check it.
Not far from him, the Rotika councilor of Barlenna stared blankly ahead, obviously not thinking about the game—after all, the phrase "full sale of cobalt gold mines" is too lethal, making the recent Couldn't even sleep well for a few days.
Roddy's "Firebolt" was verified by the referee to pass the power system and magic crystal, indicating that he can participate. When the car was pushed to the starting line by Roddy himself, the people watching the race naturally burst into laughter.
Everyone on the floating tower gradually became quiet, and as the announcement "There is only one minute left before the start of the game, all irrelevant personnel will leave" resounded throughout the audience, the tower body also began to enter the stage of energy infusion—with the boring "rumble" There was a sound, and the ground where the entire auditorium was located began to rise upwards, and it floated steadily at a height of 20 meters under Jeremy's control.
"The countdown begins!"
There is no slogan timing here, but a row of magical ever-burning lights floating in front of the arena. These lights changed from red to orange with the switch of the magic circle - at this time, all the "vehicle puppets" made various roars, and the driver on the vehicle was also concentrating on clenching Joystick in hand.
Five seconds later, all the permanent lights suddenly went out, which meant that the game officially started.
It didn’t have the fierce and incomparable starting gesture of the F1 arena in Roddy’s impression. After the energy transmission of the other 47 puppets passed through the stabilizer, the first thing they made was a deafening noise... But the sound was loud, but for a long time, no one really saw it. On the contrary, all the puppets started to start slowly like an old man's wheelchair.
Because the energy transmitted violently by the magic crystal must first pass through the stabilizer to "stabilize" the energy. Therefore, the loud noise was basically caused by the rapidly working radiator, and the heat rose upwards, distorting the air above the puppets.
And when the energy was stabilized, those puppets with many "legs" started the fastest—their "click" footsteps made a harsh friction sound on the floor, and quickly left the formation of the large army , and soon gathered into the first group.
Behind them, the wheeled puppets of Barrenna and Morphant College started slowly, like a train speeding up on the track. Ranked in the second group—and those who stayed in the last, that is, the third group, were players from those small countries whose names they couldn't remember...Of course, this also included Roddy.
In fact, Rody didn't start at all. He leaned back on the seat, with his arms on the leather armrests with diamond patterns, and stared at the messy "big troop" in front of him in a daze. Because he suddenly felt... that he drove a "Firebolt" to participate in this kind of competition.
The length of the entire square was about 600 meters, and more than a minute had passed before the spider-shaped puppet at the head entered the track first. Those huge puppets behind were thrown away by thirty to forty meters, obviously because of their heavy weight, the acceleration process was slowed down too much.
"Perhaps the performance will be better after the speed is up?"
Roddy made a guess, but he also felt that even if this kind of thing accelerated to the top, it probably wouldn't reach a speed of 60 kilometers per hour. However, he can clearly see that several of the machines should use something similar to a "gearbox". If you think about it, Rahiman's research on industry should be better than that of the Karen Kingdom, right
At this time, there was only his solitary car left on the starting line. After the last construction puppet in front disappeared at the corner of the track, the laughter of the onlookers on both sides began to become undisguised.
The floating tower in the sky also raised its height at this time, and began to follow the construction puppets in front of it—obviously, these mages had decided that Rody came here just for show.
"Tsk tsk, the whole journey is 93 kilometers, almost catching up with the Fifth Ring Road."
Roddy sighed with emotion =. He put down the specially designed "handbrake", pushed the start lever, and after the charging spar "hum" started, he fixed the two-speed adjustable shock absorber in "street mode", then held the steering handle with his left hand, and Pulled the "throttle" lever...
For him, Rahiman's journey has just begun at this moment.
