There is a simple table in the martial arts hall. There is a mechanical stove that can adjust the flame. The pot filled with soup is boiling with bursts of white mist. There are some prepared ingredients on the table, and four people are surrounding it.
Sit together and cook hot pot.
"Our opponent this time is more difficult. The opponent is a chamber of commerce that produces land vehicles and has very strong funds."
Li Lan said as she picked up a piece of meat from the pot.
"I also have the impression that this chamber of commerce specializes in controlled machinery. The weapon system is from another chamber of commerce. The main weapon is the Dragon Light series artillery. It has strong firepower and is relatively large, but it is very flexible and very tricky." Mike placed the bowl.
, sitting in a somewhat unnatural position.
"Isn't it very difficult? We don't have any long-range attacks, so it's easy to fall into passivity." Lilan frowned.
"Then what shortcomings do they have?"
asked the devil.
"Is it a shortcoming? Judging from the performance four years ago, the weapon system is unstable and has not been properly adjusted with the movement system, resulting in a low hit rate."
Mike said calmly.
"You observe very carefully."
Li Lan smiled.
"It's just an occupational disease, and it won't help much." Mike didn't want to say more.
"No, these are enough for us to take countermeasures." The Demon King said calmly.
While they were talking, half of the food on the table quietly disappeared.
After finishing the feast, Lilan and the Demon King went out together. She took the Demon King to the Machinery City, a place that specializes in selling magic parts. After the audition bonuses were distributed, they finally had the funds to upgrade equipment and equipment.
Machinery City, just like its name, is a building whose body is a huge machine. The stalls inside are very interesting. They do not sell goods on display stands like the traditional ones.
Instead, it uses light magic to project its own products in front of the store's big sign, with detailed information such as price, production date, etc. written on it. You can purchase the product without even having to deal with the store owner.
The Demon King saw many interesting things here, as well as many fantastic inventions, as well as selling ideas and looking for partners.
Unfortunately, their funds were limited. After buying a new set of tools, they could only buy some light magic alloy plates.
Unlike the Demon King who was excited about seeing all kinds of novel gadgets, Li Lan, a magic machine worker, behaved much colder.
"Sure enough, it's better to use firearms for magic machines! Why don't we install one!"
The devil suggested.
"No, there would be no point in participating in this competition."
Li Lan shook her head. She insisted on her ideas without wavering. Without her, the Demon King and the others would not be able to participate in the competition, so they had to listen to her on this point.
But the devil will not give up so easily!
Soon, the preliminary round began, and it was also the day of Reina's competition.
The venue opened an arena, a giant building. The reformists were indeed rich, and the arena they built was very large, able to accommodate more than 100,000 people. Moreover, the arena not only became larger, but also became more complex.
There are several huge stone pillars on the field, lying crookedly in the center of the field, and there are pools, sandy areas, and muddy areas in all directions.
There are obstacles and bunkers on the ground, and of course there is a flat bottom without any obstacles.
At this time, a man wearing porcelain white armor, metal boots, and a golden ponytail peeking out from behind the helmet walked onto the field. Suddenly, some metal eyeballs with dragonfly wings floated around, projecting the captured scene onto
A four-sided cubic surface in the air allows viewers to clearly see the arena.
"Now on the stage is! Mainly focusing on martial arts tradition, wearing a mecha that claims to be able to use martial arts, an individual contestant! Reina!"
The host stepped on a hemispherical aircraft and introduced loudly while holding a machine with the magic of amplifying the sound.
After these days of improvements, Reina's mecha has a completely new look. It doesn't feel bloated. The unnecessary armor has been greatly reduced and it looks much lighter. Reina's slim figure is now highlighted, and a lot of money has been spent on the color matching.
It formed a contrast with her beautiful face when she was silent, giving people a visual impact like a ballet dancer in steel.
"oh!!!"
"She is a beautiful little girl!!"
"We support you!!"
As expected by the Demon King, this mecha coupled with Rena's appearance attracted a lot of attention.
"Then, the next person to appear is!! The representative of the Land Trade Association! The King of Beasts and Centaurs!!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, the door suddenly opened at the other end of the arena, and a mechanical man rushed out. It was very tall, at least three meters tall, and made a thumping sound when it stepped on the ground.
"The competition between Beauty and the Beast! What will be the outcome? Will there be a miracle? Or will it be a tragic reality? Now while the players are familiar with the arena, I would like to invite today's special mechanical expert, the famous mecha combat researcher Malone
Library!”
The camera suddenly turned to an old man sitting in front of the podium. His wrinkled face looked very unpleasant.
"So Mr. Malonku, what do you think of this competition? What is the difference between the magic machines between the two players?"
Suddenly, there was a buzzing sound, and the man named Malonku moved the microphone to his mouth.
"Of course there is no need to guess the outcome. The humans, horses, and machines will win. There is no doubt about it." He said without mercy.
"Oh, why are you talking about this? Can you talk about it in detail?"
Malonku snorted sarcastically and said, "Is this even necessary? The latest product, the Type-A 67 land vehicle, has an explosive power of three thousand magic powers. Coupled with a solid-state magic power furnace that can last for a long time, its mobility is incomparable.
Comparable. After the experience of the last disastrous defeat, the Land Traveler Chamber of Commerce abandoned large-scale firepower and chose to conduct independent research. It was equipped with self-developed weapons such as the dragon horse gun and the station aegis. It can easily respond to various attacks and can switch between attack and defense.
…”
"Well! The Land Mobile Machinery Chamber of Commerce is indeed very powerful! But since our contestant Rena can win the audition and pass the audition, she must have some secret weapon in this mecha. What do you think?"
Since Malonku kept introducing the contestants, the host noticed something was wrong and broke some rules, so he immediately interrupted him.
Malonku chuckled and said: "I don't know how she won. The mecha is the third-generation Venus Type 22 that has long been eliminated. Although it has good flexibility and endurance, it has fatal flaws in terms of power and defense.
What is that? A mecha that can use martial arts? Haha, I don’t even know what the meaning of this is. To put it bluntly, it’s just a beautiful vase.”
He said without mercy.
At this time, Li Lan, who was standing behind the battlefield, clenched her fist and punched it on the guardrail. Her product was so belittled. She knew that she had no talent, but after all, it was the result of several years of hard work.
The product developed is unique.
This is tantamount to telling her that all your efforts are in vain.
