The Crossbell City Sports Area is officially open to the general public. Although the underground area h located directly below it is still undergoing secret construction, it no longer hinders the use of surface buildings.
After two months of continuous publicity in the "Closbell Times", the general public in the Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture has a basic understanding of what sports are. From the first day of the opening of the sports area, a large number of citizens poured in
For this purpose, not only did the Broken Wind Bird Chamber of Commerce provide security services, but Ling also used her rights as an IBC director to specifically contact the Crossbell Police Department and the Guerrilla Association.
Having said that, the first search section of the police station, which is responsible for major cases, and the second search section, which is responsible for economic cases, will not be dispatched. The third section, that is, the police from the patrol department are here. The same goes for the Guerrilla Association, as the trump card
The A-level guerrilla Saint Arios Marklein, the Wind Sword Saint, never showed up in the sports area.
General facilities in the sports area, such as the ubiquitous plastic tracks or exercise equipment, are open to the public free of charge, while six of the seven venues have a ticket system, which is valid on the same day and will become invalid upon expiration. Entrance to the Grand Arena is five per person.
The entrance fee for the swimming pool, rock climbing hall, tennis court, and cricket field is 1,000 meters, and the racecourse is 3,000 meters.
Although equestrianism in the Erebonian Empire is a course that most nobles will learn, in Crossbell City, there are very few people who can do it. However, there are also many imperial people in Crossbell, so the business at the racecourse
Not bad at all.
The only large building that is not open to the public is the Budokan. It was originally envisioned as a venue for fighting, fencing, and wrestling competitions. But after Dita's reminder, Ling gave up the idea of including these events in the sports meeting schedule. Venues
Although it was still built, the purpose was completely different. It was set up by her as a Hamel-ryu dojo.
Ling asked Tio to set up a teleportation array between Rozenbelk's studio and the Budokan. This would make it easy to travel between the two places. The place where he and Reinhardt competed every day was also opened by Rozenbelk's studio.
The underground space has been moved to the Budokan. Compared with the underground space, the feeling on the ground is better.
During the daily sparring between Ling and Reinhardt, some hunters who also used the Budokan as their base would come to watch the battle. Neither Ling nor Reinhardt were afraid of their own styles being seen by outsiders, let alone
The West Wind Brigade, which has signed a confidentiality agreement with the Rozenbelk Workshop, is the top regiment and has always been tight-lipped about the identity of their employer. But for most hunters, this kind of competition between swordsmanship means that they
In fact, it was very confusing. The only thing I knew was that my employer and his employer's brother were very, very strong.
Although it is a dojo, it does not have a sign. In order not to irritate the Erebonian Empire government, Ling and Levi have no plans to publicize the existence of Hamel style in a big way, at least not until the progress on Olibate's side goes smoothly.
Speaking of Olibat, we have to mention what he has been doing recently.
In order to sign the "West Samlian Continent Non-War Treaty", Ling went to the Kingdom of Liber several times to act as an adviser to Oribat and give him advice.
The two major powers in the West Semilia continent are the Erebonia Empire and the Kalvard Republic, so although this treaty was proposed by the Erebonia Empire's eldest prince Oribat Lezeyanor, it was not suitable for signing.
Any one of these countries can do it. Considering its geographical location and diplomatic influence, the Kingdom of Liber is the best choice.
The signing place was at the Albert Palace on the outskirts of Grancel. Different from the original plot, this was not the "Three Kingdoms No-War Treaty", but a convention covering most of the countries in the entire West Semilia continent.
In addition to the two major countries and Liber, more than ten small countries such as Northumbria, Remifilia, and Audrey have also become signatories.
Among the various autonomous prefectures, only the Crossbell Autonomous Prefecture failed to participate in the signing ceremony of the No-War Pact. In the official texts of both the Erebonia Empire and the Kalvard Republic, the name of Crossbell is "Closbell."
"State" rather than "Closbell Autonomous State". Crosby has always been regarded as a dependent state, not an independent country.
But despite this, the tension between the two countries has eased slightly after the signing. As a buffer zone, Crossbell can clearly feel this difference.
The influx of investment, the increase in tourists, and the construction of countless new buildings. The establishment of sports areas and Hollywood is eye-catching but not unique. The entire city of Crossbell has now entered a stage of prosperity and development.
In mid-January, Ling suddenly felt something in her heart. After entering the Castle of Shadows, she saw the gem on the chest of Sektor, the Purple Riding God, who had been silent for three months, radiating light.
My initiator, you are here.
"Are you finally awake?"
Because it is supported by sufficient spiritual power, the emergency function can be operated. From now on until full recovery, it will be possible to wake up about once a month.
"That's right. It's really not that easy."
The severely injured Cavalry God has only recovered a small amount. It is still too reluctant to fight as before.
"In our future battles, we really need to consider the resistance to magic attacks. I have considered installing anti-magic armor on your body in the form of plug-in parts."
Curse-resistant armor is a topic that Ling is currently researching using floating city technology. There are many cases where it can be used among the Gulibel people.
Indeed, one should not blindly believe in the defensive power of Samlianite. This time is a good lesson.
Ling and Sekto chatted for a while about the aftermath of the battle three months ago. When Sekto said that he was about to fall asleep again, Ling suddenly remembered something.
After synchronizing Sektor with herself, Ling entered the driving space of the Riding God, and then took out the Recrus square stone from it.
Just after Ling left the driving space and returned to the Shadow City Fortress, the Purple Riding God fell silent again.
Holding the square stone in his hand, a translucent figure emerged.
"I haven't seen you for three months, Celestro. I'm really sorry for keeping you locked up for so long."
The Castle of Shadows is not the human world but a slightly higher spiritual level, so Ceresto, who has no physical body, can also appear here.
"No, you don't need to take it to heart at all. I have already confirmed the disappearance of the Ring of Radiance in the Hermit's Courtyard. In this way, my mission has been accomplished."
After chatting with Celesto for a while, Ling confirmed from her that the Kingdom of Shadows had obtained a new power source. As she had guessed, this ancient system had misappropriated the energy used to create artificial spiritual caves without authorization.
As a tenant, Ceresto expressed his willingness to work for Ling and treated it as paying rent.
"But it's really strange. You know that I'm just an artificial intelligence, but you treat me as a human being?" Celeste was still quite subtle about Ling's attitude towards her.
"Maybe it's because I'm a puppet master. Recently, I've started to treat those children less and less like lifeless puppets."
When she said this, Ling couldn't help but think of the two evil spirit dolls. Since installing sound cards and speech synthesis programs on them a few days ago, it has become increasingly difficult to distinguish them from real children.
Tie'ao likes to call her "Alujin", and Lingyin usually calls her "Gou Xiujin". I don't know where they learned the word from, but it is clear that in the customs of the West Semilia continent, the maid's name for the master is
It would be more appropriate to call "Masta".
The unblocking of the Hermit's Courtyard is also a good thing for Ling. In this way, she can use the huge library automatically generated by absorbing external information. In it, she can see a large number of books that are considered banned in the outside world.
Text, if the church knew about it, they would definitely be targeted. And due to the different time flow rates between the Kingdom of Shadows and the outside world, she asked Celestro to adjust the time flow rate, so that she would have a lot of time to read.
.
When entering the Hermit's Courtyard to read, Ling unexpectedly discovered her own works and past life classics she had copied on the bookshelf.
"The revised version of the second volume of Astley's Lectures. It's really emotional to see the book I wrote in the Kingdom of Shadows."
"I think it's great. The exploration of the underlying rules of the human world, to be honest, even Liber's Ark did not reach this step."
"It's just that the research directions are different. The research on floating cities is more applied, right?"
Whether it is the halo track or the synthesis of radiant beads, they are precision craftsmanship that is difficult to reproduce with real-life technology. Although Ling can use the equipment in the floating city to create it, she has no intention of taking these things to the outside world. Too
Too advanced technology is very dangerous to mankind.
After chatting with Shadow Celestro for a while, Ling returned to the normal space, and in the workshop, she learned from Master Yorugu that someone was about to come to Crossbell.
Arian Hurd, the Saint of Steel, who had made an appointment with Ling three months ago, is finally here.
