Chapter 47 Space racing begins!

 Block 78 of I895 area is often called the "box house area" or the "mud pond area", which shows the difference in environment.

"Look!" Xuanji stretched out her finger to show Kalki, "This is the poorest plot of land in Manxing City that you have always wanted to see!"

"It's too dark to see clearly." Kalki raised his head and looked around, "a group of dark buildings."

In the darkness of the night, the two of them stood on the observation deck on the top of the old-fashioned stadium, facing the largest slum in Gaia. Looking from a distance, they looked like piles of huge black blocks piled randomly, some of which were in uneven positions.

Twist the window to reveal white or yellow light, which looks like a bunch of messy Rubik's cubes. A gust of wind blows, bringing with it a vague smoke, and the whole atmosphere becomes even weirder.

"These are all kinds of box houses built haphazardly, stacked horizontally and vertically very high." Xuanji continued to explain, "Most of the areas in Mangxing City are built on high foundations, because we are in the process of renovation.

As for the last artificial environment, here is the only one... it is in direct contact with the muddy earth, and there are no various pipeline facilities. Many people go to dig a native fossil fuel outside the city to save heating costs. As a result, the air quality here is very poor.

Oops, other places in Mangxing City are not polluted because residents in other places pay air taxes."

"These residents are simply living in ancient times. Why do they live like this?" Kalki frowned slightly. Plato only imitated ancient times in appearance, but in essence he still lived a modern life.

"This was originally a lakeside natural park, and poor people gathered here one after another. As a result, it ended up like this hundreds of years later..."

"You said that Gaia's welfare is not bad. Everyone has a basic monthly allowance. How can there be such poor people?"

"Ah! What can you do with that money? The most you can do is not starve to death. I don't know why... I can only say that when a person is born in this place, he is surrounded by chaos, drugs, violence, and all kinds of illegal transactions.

When the time comes, it will be difficult for him to make any changes. Sometimes, poverty is a hereditary disease." Xuanji closed one eye and pointed at her brain with her slender index finger.

Kalki understood why some Gaia prisoners of war were happy to enter the Platonic system. When a system abandons some people, these people will also abandon the system.

"My goddess, you are finally here!"

When the two of them took the elevator to the team preparation area at the bottom of the arena, a middle-aged man with a Zhejiang accent greeted Xuanji with unusual enthusiasm.

"My goddess! You are my only hope now! My little treasury will be depleted if it continues like this. Please save me! Why have you been unwilling to play another round for so long? It's so painful for me!"

He was like a boneless mangy dog, and he just knelt down in front of Xuanji.

"Because the money you gave me is too little! The dividends have been paid in installments, and I have to pay the IOU in arrears. This is my life-saving money... I have much more money now." Xuanji raised her head arrogantly, lowered her eyelids, and looked

She looks very cute. She now receives a daily subsidy of 1,000 Luna, and her life is much better.

"I was wrong before! Goddess, I'm counting on you this time!"

Xuanji turned to look at Kalki, who was watching all this with a gloomy expression. A Platonic person would never understand the world of Gaia society.

"This is Boss Lei." Xuanji made a generous introduction. She was already wearing a tight-fitting racing suit printed with various tobacco and alcohol sponsor brands, with the unique heroic appearance of a female soldier.

"M88 is the most famous company in the underground gambling industry in Mangxing City. I used to come here to earn some pocket money if money was tight." She also introduced other big bookmakers in the underground gambling industry to Kalki.

"This is our security department, and this is the supervisor Doroshenko..." Xuanji also pointed out to him Boss Lei's partners, several Italian and Eastern European gangsters, followed by a group of old-fashioned military armors.

The burly security guards carry old-model laser carbines on their backs, and they look very powerful.

"Who is this?..." The short boss Lei looked up at Kalki.

"This is Admiral Kalki." She raised her head arrogantly again, with a proud expression on her beautiful face.

"Admiral, hello! Hello! It's such an honor to meet Mr. Admiral!" Boss Lei immediately took Kalki's hand and shook it with pretense of enthusiasm. He knew that Xuanji was just a low-level mercenary, and she was even a captain.

You may not even know a few of them, but how can you still get to know an admiral? You don’t need to make a rough draft to brag.

"He's so handsome, just like a male model, he's as good as a tree in the wind." Boss Lei complimented him repeatedly and nodded habitually, as if he was still affirming himself.

However, he has read countless people and has developed a pair of piercing eyes that can automatically identify identities. We can indeed see the murderous aura unique to soldiers in this blond man wearing Plato's robe, and his temperament is extremely elegant, and there is a sense of nobility in his movements.

This is really rare in Mangxing City.

"Let someone take Admiral Kalki to change clothes." Xuanji reminded him.

"Okay, okay." Boss Lei echoed repeatedly, "Come and see the car I have prepared for you. It is my best and most expensive one. Goddess, please don't crash it and scrap it again this time!"

Boss Lei led Xuanji to her racing car and kept talking in front of her. "You don't know that tonight is a big game! All the big names are coming! Tonight is coming...Thunder Sisters, District 555

The Double Cannon, the Fire Gemini, the Dark Two-Headed Snake...these are the leading figures in the two-person combat racing world, and they are all well-known names!"

Xuanji had automatically blocked his verbose words. She opened an old-fashioned automatic folding military electronic telescope and carefully observed the venue for today's racing. As expected, there were many spectators in the auditorium, more than ten times more than usual.

There are many people, and it’s a lively scene.

"Are the syrup bombs, popcorn, sticky heat flow... and the Tang Sect hidden weapon set ready? There was something wrong with the engine and brakes last time, which almost killed me..."

Xuanji kept asking. She couldn't help but take a step back to admire the beautiful streamlined body of this two-seater racing car. The paint was an extremely gorgeous and bright red, just like the ancient murex that was squeezed and the liquid that dyed the emperor's robes flowed out.

An unforgettable, highly saturated color.

"My goddess, I will give you the best match this time! You must give me a good face, I lost miserably last time!" Boss Lei geared up, his eyes showing the desire for victory, no, it should be said that he was eager for the victory.

The desire for money.

"I spent a lot of money this time!" Boss Lei habitually began to complain again, "I didn't expect that when the competition came, my best pair of contestants 'Romeo and Juliet' both said they had food poisoning and refused to come...

…”

"Those two idiots!" Xuanji scolded, "They will only ruin my business!".

"No, no, you have misunderstandings with them!" Boss Lei waved his hand quickly. The relationship between these racers who often compete in the same field is always very tense, "so I can only think of you! Saving a scene is like putting out a fire, and the merit is immeasurable.

!"

This was the content of the message that Xuanji received in the evening. Boss Lei also asked her to bring a friend to play with him, but he almost knelt down on the spot like a bear, begged her shamelessly, and promised her that he could raise the price from the ground up.
Xuanji can only drag Kalki along.

"There is a commission of 40,000, and it cannot be less! If the general takes action, you must add 50% of the labor fee." She negotiated terms with him.

"Okay, okay." Boss Lei, who has always been extremely stingy, had his face cramped.

The entire venue was very lively. Countless colorful hover cars gathered from various areas of Mangxing City towards the old stadium in the "Nitang District". The underground parking lots were full. Many people parked their cars in the wasteland and stood in the small

I rushed to the competition location on the flywheel with boost.

Combat racing is an illegal sport in Gaia because it is too dangerous. However, legal racing is fast and lacks excitement. Underground racing is full of underhanded tricks, and there are various battle scenes in the speeding electric car.

The effect is extremely entertaining and exciting, and is very popular among the people of all ethnic groups in Mangxing City. The gambling industry derived from it makes this industry even more exciting. This is because the market brings huge profits, so that the law can only restrain the powerless and powerless people at the bottom of society.

The weak and powerful people, but the bankers with gang backgrounds can use bribes to make the violent organizations and regional governments in the area blind. In Star City, no one will be troubled by money.

"Xuanji!"

Kalki changed into a racing suit and walked over gracefully, his firm steps carrying the confidence and dignity of a space knight. Although his racing suit was also full of gaudy trademarks, he was the kind of person who looked great in any outfit.

A person with a tall figure and broad, right-angled shoulders is eye-catching, and his whole body is full of athletic vigor.

"Wow... Kalki." Xuanji couldn't help but smile at him.

Before the race even started, this makeshift pair began to get familiar with the conditions of the car.

Unlike the beautiful car body in Xuanji's photo, Kalki didn't care about the astonishingly beautiful outer shell. He sat directly in and checked various equipment and switches.

"The electric field propulsion engine of this racing car should be modified from the old ion thruster used by the Gaia army." Kalki sat in the driver's seat and used the in-situ test program to experience the engine power.

The internal space in the racing car is very small, because all ground aircraft need to overcome gravity. There are only two positions - one driver and one combatant. The operating interfaces are all projected ion touch screens, and Kalki controls all military equipment.

He was extremely familiar with them, and he had even taken a course to learn how to use the Gaia army's fighter planes and weapons. He quickly checked the operation menu, which listed hundreds of racing weapons, all of which were interesting little things to increase the visibility.

Hidden weapons can hurt and block each other. Because racing cars are moving at high speed, it is impossible to use highly lethal explosives to blow up each other.

"What do you think?" Xuanji asked him quickly. In fact, she was very embarrassed to drag him to participate in this kind of racing sport that people like to see. She felt that he looked very serious when he was busy, and she was afraid of what he had in mind.
She thought to herself, if those arrogant and arrogant Plato knights knew that the White Tiger leader participated in this vulgar game to entertain the public of Gaia, wouldn't they be laughed at crazily?

"Candy War." Kalki said as he emerged from the car.

However, he was still full of serious energy. He ran to discuss with the team's information assistant and looked carefully at the route map provided by the handheld navigator. It showed three lap routes in different colors, each lap being 150 kilometers.

The viewing platform and auditorium are on repeated flat sections, while the rest are on the messy sections and natural scenic spots in the area.

"You won't be angry with me, will you?" She dragged one of Plato's most elite knights over to participate in this children's game that entertains the public. If she loses...

Xuanji is still struggling with her identity and status, while Kalki has fully entered the pre-match state.

"Get ready! You have to check the operation of the vehicle-mounted weapons and equipment first."

Kalki's commander's scent comes out again.

Xuanji could only look at the sky, thinking: Boss Lei, a stingy guy, is not worthy of such hard work from a person of your status.

He picked up the helmet and checked it, but he didn't expect that there was a universe inside. The racing helmet can also use 3D image generation technology to visually generate various appearances. He kept pressing the button, and different cartoon masks would appear. He smiled.

, I find it very interesting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to watch the crazy racing competition!" A baritone voice sounded like a store salesman with ecstasy.

Thirty minutes later, the long-awaited crazy combat racing competition finally began.

Nearly 300,000 spectators gathered at the scene with thunderous cheers. Various colorful lighting effects created a tense and exciting atmosphere. There were also continuous three-dimensional advertising interruptions. Spaceship-style floating searchlights illuminated the track and auditorium as bright as daylight.

All this seemed extremely magical late at night. Then, the host introduced the twelve pairs of contestants one by one. Xuanji and Kalki were drawn to the fifth track.

"The following are the contestants of the fifth track "Doraemon from Plato". This is a pair of mysterious contestants. We know very little about them, but they will amaze the audience like a whirlwind..."

On the big screen where pairs of drivers were introduced on the main stage, Kalki wearing a "Doraemon" video helmet and Xuanji wearing the avatar of Doraemon's younger sister "Doramie" were shown. The two also symbolized

Sexually making the gesture of hugging brother and sister in the comics, it aroused laughter, warm applause and cheers from the young people in the audience.

When Xuanji saw this introduction, she directly covered her face with her hands, unable to read——

"As a new member, it's a very smart way to attract the public's attention by being funny and cute." Boss Lei on the side encouraged her nonchalantly, "The betting rate is also part of the driver's performance. Good performance means more money."<

/p>

"Xuanji, the game is about to begin!"

Kalki greeted her, and she immediately got into the bright crimson racing car with him.

Amid the roaring cheers of the spectators on both sides, their car, along with other cars, slowly drove into its own track.

"It's really like a racing competition in the Roman Empire." Kalki said softly, looking at the colorful crowds in the stands. This was a scene he had never imagined, and it unrealistically made him feel like he had entered the Roman racing circuit in the space age.
"You should say this," this colorful riot-like scene was still familiar to Xuanji, and she joked easily, "Gaia inherited the corruption, mobs and racing cars of Rome. Plato inherited it.

Roman architecture, army and senate."

"It all sounds like a dragon's den and a tiger's den." Kalki smiled, put on his helmet, and fastened it tightly. Xuanji was a conversation partner who could match his intelligence. It was very pleasant to communicate with her, which soothed him.

The pressure before the game.

This racing attracted nearly 300,000 spectators to watch live, and twice the number of viewers paid to watch on encrypted channels. Both forms require betting on the starting track of the championship team, a huge semi-circular arc.

In the simple auditorium, the audience was busy placing bets on the suspended ion touch screen, and some were busy ordering snacks such as popcorn, chicken popcorn, and carbonated drinks. The variety of food was also extremely rich, and there were nearly a hundred types of drinks alone.

Racing games are such a hugely profitable gambling game. Whether it is admission tickets, viewing passwords, bets or various on-site products, they can bring huge financial resources to the banker.

Twelve suspended racing cars with different shapes, some even extremely weird, took their places on the track one after another.

The betting ratio is also displayed under the photos of each player. As a new combination without any record, "Doraemon from Plato" actually got a betting rate of 9.8%, which is a good start.

The whole place immediately turned from the hustle and bustle into a slow silence, and the countdown began, 10.9.8...

"Play Valkyrie." Kalki held the floating steering wheel with both hands and sat in the driver's seat. As soon as he finished speaking, Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries" began to play in the crimson racing car, and a heart-stirring sound

The tense strings of the violin sounded, exaggerating the extremely tense atmosphere before the war.

Xuanji, who was sitting in the combat position, felt a fighting passion ignite in her heart during this familiar music. She looked into his eyes. Kalki's eyes were as blue as water, but as bright as a burning flame.

Full of the familiar passion for fighting and the will to win, he is such a natural warrior and will go all out even in the "Candy War".
