Infrastructure starts from the game

With the help of the wind elves, the flight contest finally became orderly.

The rune masters finally don't have to work continuously for 24 hours, and have a more "scientific" scheduling time, and finally have the energy to watch the flying competition held by their workshop.

For this reason, Angel installed several magic screens in the cafeteria for everyone to use.

Even Angel himself watched several live broadcasts.

Like a sunny afternoon in late April.

It was an ordinary working day, but there were still some rune masters, alchemists and hospitality cats who were on shifts gathered in the cafeteria to watch the live broadcast of the flight competition that afternoon.

They are so engrossed that hardly anyone (the cat) notices that a shadow bulges up in the corner of the canteen and becomes their boss.

Angel also had no intention of alarming them.

Angel sat down in a corner specially reserved for himself where he could bask in the sun, and saw Jack the Black Sheep walking over with a strawberry pudding and something similar to pasta, and placed it in front of Angel.

Angel took it, and asked Jack casually, "You didn't go to the competition?"

Although this black sheep entered the workshop as an intern rune teacher because of the colorful black sheep, and has been learning runes, his motor nerves are obviously better than rune talents. At the table, he could be on a par with Enlis, who was in the top ten at that time.

If you want to use Angel, who has Jack's body, to describe it, it feels like the boot speed has suddenly evolved from the 586 era to an eight-core processor, as if you can try to fight monsters hand-to-hand.

Such a Jack should be able to easily get a good ranking if he goes to participate in the broomstick competition.

But Black Sheep, as always, has no interest in anything.

He was as dull as an old goat for half a minute before slowly replying: "If it's your order—"

"If you don't want to participate, then don't participate," Angel said.

Jack nodded and stayed there again.

The air also seemed to freeze.

However, after getting along for almost a year, Angel has gotten used to the silent atmosphere when he was with Black Sheep. He ate his pasta on his own, not paying attention to Hei Sheep's dull staring eyes at him.

On the contrary, Jack, who had always been like a piece of furniture, said suddenly after being silent for about 5 minutes: "Miss Enlis, she didn't participate in the flying competition either."

"Really?" Angor replied uninterestedly.

Jack nodded slowly, and looked at the magic screen in front of him: "Because she didn't participate, everyone has a disagreement."

"Disagreement?"

"Some people support little Poirot, and some cats support Miss Enlis's friend, Miss Letty."

"It sounds so lively." Angel laughed.

this is normal phenomenon.

The Flying Broom Racing Contest was held for the first time. There were no professional pilots. The first batch of children, teenagers and young people who came into contact with flying broomsticks were relatively many. No matter whether the pilots or the organizers, they were all amateurs.

But also because of this, the atmosphere is very close to the people.

The audience went to see "my brother", "my neighbor's child", "XXX in our street", "XXX in our city" and "XXX in our village". They were very sincere.

This sense of honor has been cultivated for a few years, and the flying competition will not only become a national event, but at least it will become a traditional event in the East.

The same goes for the people in the workshop.

If Enlis or Jack participated in the competition, they would naturally support their own people, but since no one in the workshop participated in the competition, everyone would naturally support the frequent visitors of the workshop, especially those who were at the top of the ranking list and whose names looked familiar. indivual.

Little Poirot and Letty are such frequent visitors.

As for why there is a "disagreement", it is probably because Poirot discovered the "rune copying technology", so many rune masters and alchemists are very optimistic about him, and Liti is related to Enliss, Enlis and The hospitality cats have a good relationship, and even her friends have a good relationship with the hospitality cats, so the hospitality cats support the little girl Letty.

Angor has no inclination towards this.

Instead, he asked Jack strangely: "Why did you say this suddenly? Do you care about the results of the two kids' games?"

In Angel's impression, Black Sheep didn't seem like someone who cared about such things.

"I'm a little worried," Jack nodded, "I'm worried that the two sides will quarrel because of their different support targets."

"You mean the rune master who supports little Poirot, and the entertainer cat who supports Letty?" Angel thought for a while, and after losing the game, the scene of humans and cats fighting was just amused, "This situation is possible Happened, if little Poirot and Letty happened to meet."

"It's about to meet, the group stage." Heiyang said.

"Oh!"

Angel said: "Then I'm really looking forward to it."

"..." Do you really want to see your employees fight?

The black sheep stared at Angel silently for a while, expressing that even though it had been almost a year, he did not understand what the boss was thinking.

Angel said that the "expectation" was true, and he finally understood the situation of the competition he held.

If the track is the most complicated and needs the technical support of the magic base station most is the third division near the foggy forest, then the most exciting and competitive competition is the first division where the city of Cecilia is located.

After all, people in the capital of magic are the first to come into contact with broomsticks, and they play with them the most.

Therefore, the ten groups in the other divisions are considered too many, and many players feel that there are fewer competitors in other divisions and divert them. However, Cecilia City has a full 66 groups, plus Cecilia The city also opened a prize pool, and various props and magic arrays emerged one after another, and the battle was very fierce.

To Angel's surprise, both Letty and Poirot performed well in such a fierce battle.

First up is Letty.

As a witch, Liti is born with a strong ability to perceive magic power, and the broomstick is her natural flying tool. She flies with the style of "integration of human and sweeper", and she is a talented player.

(Angel: Wait, I remember this kid! When I asked her to make a movie, she said she didn't want to be in the limelight, right? Why did she become so energetic when it was changed to an air race?)

Then there is little Poirot.

Unexpectedly, little Poirot is a technical type. This brat who doesn't like to learn is also desperate for flying broomsticks. He even researched the magic array of the most easily obtained 'N card' and 'R card' in the prize pool very thoroughly, and then cooperated well. Lucky drew a few SRs, abruptly turned the flying competition into a magic show, and came up with a few sets of tactics.

Because of their close (?) relationship with the workshop, these two are regarded as the spokespersons of the workshop.

Especially little Poirot's magic circle tactics are the reference objects for many beginners.

It's a pity that these two signings were not very lucky, and they met in the group stage early, so many people felt it was a pity.

Compared with little Poirot and Letty, Cecilia's most popular one is Crown Prince Hyde.

Although two-thirds of his reputation is bad reviews.

Mainly Crown Prince Hyde's game is really nothing to watch.

This is a standard krypton gold player. A game depends on him launching a magic circle and another magic circle and another magic circle. It is colorful and gorgeous, and he reaches the finish line in a crushing state.

It can be seen that everyone is heartbroken about the taxes they have paid.

After all, the people in Cecilia know how much it will cost to draw all these magic circles.

Newspapers and Internet message boards are filled with all sorts of derogatory headlines:

"Royal ostentation: His Royal Highness Hyde wins the group stage again!"

"Is it the victory of the flying competition? Or the victory of money? A list of the magic circles used by the crown prince."

"(Pure textual research) Analyze the number of remaining magic circles in the prize pool from the crown prince's magic circle."

Miss Su read the newspaper and sighed.

"Read on!" Crown Prince Hyde looked indifferent, and he even enjoyed this kind of report, "Isn't it very interesting? These untouchables look so sour."

"However, this is not good for your reputation." Miss Su said worriedly.

"It's not that serious, it's just some sour words;" Hyde waved his hand, he glanced at the newspapers, and he didn't mind at all, "If they care about the magic circle so much, I'll let them in next time Alright! I won’t lose even if it’s just technology (the performance of the broom)!”

It seems that the early stage of the game gave Hyde great confidence. He obviously felt that there would be no problem even if he didn't use the magic circle.

But when Miss Su heard this, she became anxious: "No! It's too dangerous not to use the magic circle."

"What danger?" Hyde asked with a stare.

Without the protection of the magic circle, with your flying skills, riding a broom into the sky is too dangerous!

Miss Su bit her lip, she knew that if she said this, the crown prince would be furious.

But even if Ms. Su didn't speak, Hyde was already angry: "What's the matter with you?! You've been nagging like an old woman recently, can't you learn from Leiya? That's the bearing a nobleman should have."

Having said that, Hyde added without being satisfied: "Of course, such words are too rude to Leia. Anyway, she is also the daughter of the Duke, and you are just an illegitimate daughter."

Wasn't it you who said you don't mind? !

Miss Su turned pale.

At this moment, the chief guard came in. He gave the pale Miss Su a strange look, and reported to the crown prince, "Your Highness, Earl Lantanet is here."

"Lantanite? Isn't that guy in Shesser?" Hyde asked strangely.

He then said: "No! I'm going to prepare for the next game! How can I have so much time to meet idlers—"

Miss Su opened her mouth when she heard that, but she closed it again remembering the conversation just now.

But the normally careless crown prince suddenly became more careful at such unnecessary times. He noticed Miss Su's small movements and sneered, "So, it seems that you haven't seen your father for a long time, right? Just replace me Go and meet him?"

"……Yes."

Miss Su dropped her shoulders.

As soon as the count saw Su, he asked:

"Have you quarreled with His Highness Hyde?"

It's almost obvious.

If His Highness Hyde and Su were still as gluey as before, Hyde's attitude towards the Earl would not be as cold as it is now, and he would not let Su come to see him alone.

That's right, Su is the Earl's illegitimate daughter.

Su didn't know who his mother was, but that didn't matter. How many little girls in the monastery near the royal capital and Xieser had normal backgrounds?

In the monastery, Su's name was 'Mary', a very perfunctory and clichéd name, which came from a certain saint in the first era.'Mary' who was named like this only knew that her birth was "sinful", so she must have such a name to express conversion to the Lord.

In addition, Mary had to get up at four o'clock in the morning, wear coarse clothes and recite the scriptures, three meals a day only had vegetable soup and a little bread, but she had to do sewing and cleaning until the midnight bell Until the ringing, and then recite the entire holy scriptures again before going to bed, a slight neglect is confinement and whipping.

This prison-like life lasted for a full 13 years, until her biological father, Earl Lantanet, remembered her.

It was also after leaving the monastery that 'Mary' realized how terrible hell she had lived in in the past.

It turns out that the delicate noble lady can wear soft and fluffy silk skirts, eat cakes made of the finest flour and still feel that her throat is cut, and it is hard work to go to school for only three days a week. There is nothing wrong with the dance steps, as long as this point is achieved, flowers and applause await her, as if she is born to be loved by everyone.

The only difference between myself and the other party is that my mother is different.

'Mary' doesn't even dare to be jealous of each other.

Because she knew that if she made a slight mistake, she would be driven back to that prison.

So 'Mary' worked hard to learn all noble etiquette and ways to please men, including the size of the smile, the size of the steps, the angle of fainting and other insignificant things, just hoping that she would not be abandoned again.

Earl does need 'Mary', but the purpose is very clear.

He asks 'Mary' to be the mistress of a dying old man.

Not a wife, but a mistress.

Just as a flimsy gift in exchange for political chips.

For the first time, 'Mary' disobeyed her father.

It's not because she has any longing for love, nor is it because she hates this kind of behavior, but because she feels that even if she wants to do this kind of thing, she must be a more worthy object—and a dying old man, Clearly not up to her standards.

'Mary' wandered among the nobles and finally chose her goal.

Crown Prince Hyde.

This is the highest status person that 'Mary' can come into contact with—thanks to Prince Hyde's frivolous and playful character, although Su didn't know that she would suffer in the same place—even if she knew that Hyde had a fiancée, but that so what?She could never have been anyone's wife.

'Mary' changed her name to a more pleasant 'Su', pretended to be a young lady from a famous family, and tried her best to infiltrate the circle of the crown prince, making the other party her guest of honor.

After learning about this, the Earl was not angry, and praised Su for the first time, saying that she "is worthy of being my daughter".

And what about your biological daughter?

Su wanted to ask the other party, but in the end he didn't have the guts.

However, relying on the crown prince's relationship, Su received unprecedented attention from the earl, and he could get almost anything he wanted, and that was Su's happiest time.

This also made Su especially afraid that the Earl thought he had fallen out of favor.

Su categorically denied it: "No, I just have a little disagreement with His Highness in the air competition..."

"That's a quarrel." The count asserted, "You're not stupid enough to stop His Royal Highness from participating in the air competition, are you? What have I learned from your education in the past!"

Yes!That 'education' is only about how to flatter the other party, not how to make the other party correct.

Su bit his lip and lowered his head.

She thought she would meet the Earl's wrath, but to her surprise, the Earl, who was always prone to anger, did not get angry—if Su knew, the Earl passed by a locomotive and was robbed along the way, because he was not found in the village because he was too dirty. After eating, I was hungry and bumped the mountain road for three hours on the carriage. When I arrived at the Academy City, I happened to meet the train to Cecilia. I didn’t dare to stop and got on the train. I finally came to Cecilia Su will be even more surprised that he is still not angry after being rejected by the crown prince and so on.

The Earl is now acting very excited.

He walked back and forth a few steps in the living room of the Eastern Palace, and when he came to the window, he happened to see the aerial roots of the banyan tree hanging from the clouds.

"Why do you want to stop him? It's completely understandable for men to have a little fun." The count said.

Su retorted: "Is such a prince really good for this country?"

"Country?" Instead, the earl stared at his daughter with wide eyes, as if the other party had said something unbelievable, "What does this have to do with you?"

Then the count paused, and then said: "Of course! Originally, I thought His Majesty's attitude towards magic was too cautious, which was not conducive to development, but the prince likes the magic power network! He will definitely support me in spreading magic power across the country. The base station, and compared to the base station of the black robe of unknown origin, he would want his own base station more! If he can persuade the Royal Mage Tower to hold the base station in his own hands, it would be perfect!"

Just like before, the emperor built the railway, and he opened a trading company;

When the crown prince comes to power, it will be the crown prince shop base station, and he will continue to open a trading company.

As for what the next emperor has to do with him?In fact, it would be better if he was a little stupid, so that his trading company would not have to hand over so much to fill the treasury.

All seemed wonderful to the count.

So good that he is even willing to forgive his daughter who is being stupid, after all, this daughter is of great value.

Su stared at the count with wide eyes: "But, now the prince is not willing to return to the capital..."

"It doesn't matter when he returns, the throne belongs to him anyway," the earl said in the same words as the prince. "Besides, did you mistake your position? Even if there is any problem, it is his wife's duty to dissuade him." , as long as you cooperate with him how happy you are!"

...Yes, father, this is what you expect from me.

Su thought.

She glanced in the direction of the door, and her voice returned to the previous soft tone: "You are right, Lord Earl, but I am still a little scared, after all, I am flying in the air, and the protection measures are not in place, what should I do if I fall... "

"Women are timid," the earl snorted coldly, "Look at the protective measures of the magic power base station, does the Lord of the East Territory dare His Highness to fall from it?"

"But, what if? The designer of the magic power base station is a black robe!" Su bluffed, "Besides, His Highness has already been assassinated in the Eastern Realm, what if the Duke of the Eastern Realm pushes everything to the assassin? The Emperor Of course we can take revenge, but we will lose His Highness."

"..." The count frowned.

He obviously doesn't want to be the role of dissuading the crown prince. In fact, he hopes to use the crown prince to secure a trade agreement in the east and dump a large amount of electrical goods to this region!

Su saw that the time was ripe, and smiled slightly: "However, after your teaching, I also feel that it is not appropriate to dissuade His Highness, so it is better for us to find another way to ensure the safety of the prince. For example, can I borrow your ring? With that , I am not afraid that the prince will make a mistake."

The count hesitated for a moment, touched the ring on his little finger, and decided on the spot to support his daughter.

"Okay, I will lend you this, at least during the flight competition, to ensure the safety of the prince."

"He is our hope!"

Although he didn't see the prince, the earl came excitedly and left happily.

He didn't know that after he left, Miss Su's neck was pressed against a sharp knife.

"You won't really listen to your father, drag the crown prince down with you!" the chief guard said coldly.

"Of course not." Su gritted his teeth and said, "I was just confusing him just now. Your highness is good to him, but not to me at all! If your highness only knows how to eat, drink and play, I can only be controlled by the earl for the rest of my life. , just as a thread for his remote control doll! When I first joined you, I said, I want to get higher freedom!"

"It's as if your Highness is not stupid, you can become a queen." The chief guard sneered.

"..." Even if I can't become a queen, I can get rid of you!

Su thought so in his heart.

The other party seemed to have seen through Su's thoughts, and he removed the knife from Su's neck, but before Su could breathe a sigh of relief, the knife then cut Su's collar.

On Su Baibai's shoulder, a skull logo was emitting a dark green light.

"Don't forget, you are from our cemetery, the price of any betrayal is instant death."

"Of course, this was the exchange condition back then!" Su humiliatedly replied.

Here's another deal.

It was by accepting the assistance from the Great Cemetery that Su was able to get close to the crown prince.

In order to escape from his father's chains, Su put another chain on himself.

"Then, the 'thing' I gave you yesterday is still there!" said the chief guard, "Remember, put it on the prince's broom during tomorrow's match."

"I understand," Su Ying said, but she still couldn't help but confirm again, "But is it really all right? It's just a small injury, just let His Highness go back to the capital?"

"Of course, it's not good for us to let His Highness die! Besides, didn't you ask your father for the 'Ring of Life'? With that, His Highness will be fine," said the chief guard with a smile, "and said How many times, you don't have to worry about suspecting you, tomorrow's game will have the daughter of the Duke, and when the time comes to track down the problem, it will be her and the magic gear, isn't this killing two birds with one stone to eliminate your rival in love?"

"Indeed!" Su raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.

I believe you are a ghost!
