Infrastructure starts from the game

The rune masters have made up their minds, and the annual meeting (press conference) of Magic Gear is still going on.

"This year's awards are here, and I hope that next year there will be more outstanding people and things worthy of our awards," Mithril said in a warm tone, "Next, we will enter the new product release link that everyone is looking forward to——"

The audience below were dumbfounded.

It was the first time for everyone to participate in the annual meeting (press conference) of Magic Gear. They didn't even know what the annual meeting was about, so naturally they didn't expect anything.

But soon, exclamations came from the southeast and southwest corners of the square.

People looked up and saw two teams riding brooms flying in from both sides of the square.

One team wore neat patrol uniforms, and the other team wore magical girl costumes. They flew around the square above the cheers of the crowd, and star-like light spots fell from the end of the broom, attracting many children to stretch out their hands. Grasp.

The two teams ended up on the stage.

"The first one to appear is our unlimited flying broomstick 10001."

The black cat announced so, and waved its paw.

A broomstick appeared in the magic projection in the sky.

"This is not the first magic broom produced by Magic Gear! There must be a lot of long-lived people here who still remember that Magic Gear has been providing various flying props for mages and witches since the establishment of this city. Meow .”

"We're sorry that we've been ignoring that other people have this need too."

"This year, we're subsidizing development shortcomings in this area with the 'Unlimited Broomstick 10001'!"

"Anyone! Whether you are a mage or a warrior, whether you are a witch or a princess, as long as you have a flight license, you can fulfill your flying dream!"

The black cat spoke in a provocative tone, which drew cheers from below.

Of course, the fans of "Magical Girl☆Maya" are the most supportive. Everyone still remembers the gorgeous flying skills of the magical girl in the movie, and they wish they were the only ones flying on the broom.

The little girl Xueli who was also in the crowd immediately grabbed Mrs. Rachel's sleeve.

"Mommy, I want this broom too!"

"No, it's too dangerous!" Mrs. Rachel objected with a serious face.

"But……"

"You're not a mage, what if you fall from above?" Mrs. Rachel said without discussion.

Xueli had no choice but to look at her father for help, but the always gentle Mr. Rachel also said seriously: "Honey, this really won't work! Just thinking about the scene where you fell from the sky makes my heart stop beating .”

Seeing that her parents objected, Xueli had no choice but to squash her mouth.

"Boss's decision is too reckless!" Erbi also said heartbrokenly.

"..." You called the boss?

Nair looked at Erbi suspiciously.

Erbi looked as if his own products were going to be out of stock, and anxiously analyzed: "Flying is the dream of human beings! Not to mention those without talent, there were not many apprentices who dared to fly in the Mage Tower in one year. Then broke his own leg? Manufacturers of flying brooms emerge in endlessly, but none of them are successful, but I often hear that some manufacturers have been sued by relatives of customers who were killed by the fall and went bankrupt!"

Yes, the sky belongs to magical creatures and mages.

The former are thick-skinned and have special mechanisms, so it doesn’t matter if they fall off. The latter can fly magic and can adjust their falling posture. It is precisely because they have a relatively low chance of falling and dying that they can boldly fly in the air.

Even if ordinary people can fly with magic props, they will either die or be injured if they fall off, so flying props cannot be promoted.

Of course Magic Gear knows this.

Otherwise, this batch of low-magic brooms wouldn't have been sitting in the warehouse for decades.

—Of course, the timing of the last launch wasn’t great either.

These magic broomsticks were invented 90 years ago. At that time, the era of magic had not completely ended, and the industrial revolution had just begun. Most ordinary people also had basic common sense about magic, and they knew it well. Although Magic Gear's broomstick got the chance to be officially promoted together with the bicycle, it lost out to the bicycle in a tragic way. Finally, it was refrigerated due to poor sales without killing anyone.

"Wait a minute," Angel asked strangely when he heard this history, "Promoted with bicycles? Or is it officially?"

"Yes! At that time, His Majesty the Emperor was preparing for the last war against the demons! Many military supplies were provided by our workshop!" Mithril shook her two tails proudly.

"Humph—" Angel showed a subtle expression, but said nothing.

However, Angor adjusted the focus of the promotion this time.

Mithril said proactively: "I believe everyone here must be aware of the most fatal flaw of this product;"

"Security Question!"

"After all, there are guys like this everywhere—"

Saying so, the black cat waved its paw forward.

In response to the action of the black cat, a loud whistle sounded in the air:

"Yo!"

I saw another team of boys in flight suits flying into the square.

However, compared to the previous two teams, the boys performed much bolder than before.

Some fly over the crowd at low altitude at high speed, some perform 360 flips in the air, and some perform irregular Brownian motions. The most eye-catching one is a boy in a bright red flight suit, who performed acrobatics in the air The thrilling performance of the actors caused the crowd below to exclaim again and again.

The thrilling action he made was that when he wanted to perform a Thomas maneuver on the broom, he suddenly lost his center of gravity and fell from the air.

The falling boy looked terrified, and the crowd below let out the loudest screams.

Seeing that he was about to smash into the crowd, the petals flying in the air suddenly gathered under the boy like a snow fairy, forming a blanket of soft petals and catching the boy.

There was a cry of relief from the crowd.

The broom also flew down and stopped beside its owner.

The boy waved to the crowd around him, got back on the broom again, and charged straight up.

He flew to a height of hundreds of meters, and jumped off the broom this time!

The crowd exclaimed again.

This time the petals formed a whirlwind and revolved around the boy, and there were more and more of them, and finally they formed two petal pads that wrapped around the boy's legs, finally slowing down his falling trend, and gently moving him He gently put it on the stage.

There was warm applause from the crowd, and the boy also waved.

At this time, the guards who entered the arena first looked at each other, and the most handsome guard at the head walked up to the boy with a small notebook.

"I'm sorry, you have violated the 37 rules of the "Flight Safety Protection Law". We have to confiscate your flight license, charge a fine of 37 silver, and perform [-] hours of community security service punishment on you."

The applause below suddenly turned into laughter.

The guards got on their brooms again and drove the scurrying boys to the stage.

The black cat said: "As you can see, the magic gear will provide you with the most perfect security protection!"

"But at the same time, please abide by the air flight rules!" Mayor Owen said.

He is not as fat as usual today!

Instead, he was a little worryingly thin, his complexion was pale, his fangs were bared, and he was wearing a cloak unique to blood races.

But there were women's screams and men's boos from the crowd.

According to tabloid news, 80.00% of Mayor Irwin’s votes came from women, and the mayor’s image of suddenly becoming thinner every time a large occasion is also one of the focuses of the topic. I suspect that it is the direct culprit of his weight gain. Many men took photos of his obesity to try to prove his true state, but his female voters were always obsessed with "My Opel is so thin, how dare you slander he!"

Until now, whether the real face of our handsome blood mayor is fat or thin is still an unsolved mystery, and it doesn't matter.

"Thank you, thank you everyone!" Owen waved to the crowd and said with a smile: "Here, the city hall also has something to announce to everyone—"

"We're going to have our first air patrol!"

"Thanks to the magic broom provided by Magic Gear. We will provide air defense services for the citizens after the Holy Ghost Festival, and recruit air patrol teams here. Interested citizens can go to the police station to inquire about the qualification requirements!"

At the signal of Mayor Owen, the patrol team at the rear took a step forward and bowed down in unison.

The crowd applauded.

This time, the male youths in the crowd were also discussing excitedly, and many of them looked tempted.

"It is also because of such restrictions. Unfortunately, the distribution area of ​​the magic broom this time is limited to the city of Cecilia," Mithril continued, "The magic broom will no longer provide flight services after leaving Cecilia, please everyone forgive."

There was a sigh from the crowd.

Those who made such voices were, of course, the tourists who came to the magical capital.

Their blood boiled with enthusiasm, and they wished they could rush to Magic Gear to buy a broomstick too!But it was rejected like this.

"It's not fair!" Mr. Rachel, who was still opposing his daughter's purchase of a broom just now, couldn't help muttering.

"Yeah, it's not fair." Mrs. Rachel couldn't help but nodded.

Shirley was silent this time, grabbing her wand.

She has experienced this kind of unfairness once, and she will get used to it after many times.

But what can be done?It was impossible for her family to move to Cecilia.

"However, we are negotiating related commodity services with Academy City. After the next semester, Cagarfun City will also implement the same air protection," Mithril continued, "I believe that more and more skies will be open to people. .”

Accompanied by Mithril's words, the eyes of young girls like Xue Li in the audience lit up.

They can't move to Cecilia, but they can go to Academy City!

When you arrive at Academy City, can you ride a broom to your heart's content? !

I don't know how many children have made up their minds because of this.

"... Next, our new game will be announced:"

"Maya Quick."

After the exciting broomstick, Black Cat announced the new game of this year.

This game has actually been delayed for several months.

Angel had mentioned to Recifia on the day the alchemy workshop reopened that he wanted to develop the official version of the "Four Seasons Game". The eldest lady even booked a game room for her public school because of this. Indulging in the development of various peripherals, procrastinating and procrastinating, the game was not produced until the eldest lady's customized game console was about to be delivered.

This kind of unknown inside story is not known to the players.

The black cat is also regarded as the previous bouncing ticket does not exist, it only describes:

"In this work, players will play the role of a cute little witch, travel through various labyrinth cities, find lost treasures, defeat vicious enemies, and obtain various achievements..."

Its description is a bit dry, but the projection of the magic display on the back is enough to interest game lovers.

This is a game that continues the style of the Four Seasons series.

In the gorgeous and beautiful scene like an oil painting, the little girl in white is either walking or running. She eats the mushrooms on the road, her body grows bigger and tramples on enemies, and her body shrinks and she goes through the mouse hole to another world. The reindeer, bird, dragon and squirrel that appeared in the four seasons game before become her friend or enemy, and there are cute new characters appearing.

Moreover, the game has also become a level format. Each season is obviously divided into different levels. While improving the gameplay, it also increases the difficulty.

Players are eager to see it, and they can't wait to get started immediately.

But there are also some dissatisfied.

"Isn't this game too rich? Is it really a game?"

"Looks like you're going to play for a long time?"

"After the Holy Spirit holiday, I have to go back to Chesser!"

"Hey, I don't want to go back."

"The Cecilians are so happy," said Mr Rachel.

The Leiqie family already had relatively light game addiction. Except for meditation games such as "Magic Cube" and "Rune Lianliankan", they were not obsessed with other games, but seeing this scene, they still sighed a little.

After all, if you leave the city of Cecilia and the East Territory, you will not be able to play the game table.

"... Everyone, are you worried that you don't have time to play, or that you are not near the game table when you want to play?" Black Cat said as if he understood people's hearts, "Then, our third product— —”

"Game crystal ball!"

The game screen on the projection screen suddenly shrank and was concentrated in the crystal ball.

A girl picked up the crystal ball and looked at the inside of the crystal ball cautiously. Of course, she was not divination, but a game.

Then a group of people gathered in front of a slightly larger crystal ball, staring closely at the scene inside the crystal ball. They were not divining the future, but playing a game.

"Daddy, I want this." Shirley said.

"Okay, okay!" Mr. Leiqie had no objection to this kind of game crystal ball, and he even asked, "Is it enough to buy one? It's rare to come to Cecilia, and it may be difficult to buy when I go back. Do you want to buy one more?" spare?"

"Don't waste money!" Mrs. Rachel glared at her husband, "I don't know how much magic power this crystal ball consumes! What if I can't play without Cecilia? It's like Xueli's stick Same!"

"It's a wand, not a stick," Shirley muttered.

Her magic level has reached C, so she can definitely play.

Of course, magical girls like Xueli don't have to worry about it, and the gentle black robe obviously has ordinary audiences in mind.

Rather, if ordinary people can't play it, he wouldn't specially develop this game Crystal Ball.

"...The crystal ball in this game is equipped with a unique energy storage system for magic gear," Mithril Cat said, "When you can't control the game character, or the image of the crystal ball is in a cloudy state, it means that you or the crystal ball's magic power is not enough , don’t panic at this time, please enter the magic meditation mode, and perform the familiar meditation states such as "Magic Cube" and "Rune Lianliankan" to supplement the magic value. We have provided a total of more than a dozen different meditation methods for everyone to choose from. "

"Buy the biggest game crystal ball!" Mrs. Rachel said immediately, "The picture is too small, it's not good for Xueli's eyes."

"..." I like small ones!

Shirley pouted awkwardly.

Only the small size is convenient for her to secretly hide in her schoolbag and bring it to class to show off to her classmates, and that size is similar to a witch's crystal ball, so it is lighter and more beautiful to hold.

"Okay!" Mr. Rachel replied, glancing at his daughter.

He felt that he needed to buy three crystal balls to maintain peace at home in the future.

But counting the cost in Cecilia this time... Oh, forget it, let's go back and pick up a few more orders!

thought Mr. Rachel, feeling cooler than usual in the area of ​​his hairline.

The bewitching introduction of the black cat above continues:

"...Of course, compared to the crystal ball, our magic screen is the most suitable for displaying the exquisite graphics of the game."

"It can display every detail of the screen at 360 degrees without dead ends, completely substituting you into the game."

"Like this—"

When it said that, the lights on the stage gradually dimmed, and the image in the magic projection returned to the pure white witch who is the protagonist of the game again. This time there was no scene, only the white girl gracefully floating in the night sky with petals dance.

Only then did people realize that before they knew it, the sky had completely darkened, and it was already night.

It was also dark on the stage, only a pair of huge heterochromatic pupils were lit, and there was the voice of the black cat:

"This concludes the press conference of the magic gear."

"Happy Holy Ghost Day everyone!"

"Please also continue to enjoy this wonderful Holy Spirit night—"

In such a concluding remark, the loud and solemn pipe organ sounded, and the people cheered.

Next is the regular plot of Holy Spirit Day every year——

People are about to walk around the main street of Cecilia City. The streets of this city are a magic summoning array, which is said to be able to summon the great magician Cecilia—although the great magician has never really appeared, but The people of Cecilia use this as a way to get blessings - when people finish walking, it is almost twelve o'clock, and at that moment people bless each other and make wishes for the next year.

Although the details of the legends in other cities are different, in general the process is similar.

But on this day, tourists feel that Cecilia's Holy Spirit Festival is the "real thing"!

After all, after the magic gear conference ended, the holy spirit parade from the past started again. The phantoms of creatures of other races exuded soft fluorescence, walking or flying under the night sky covered with petals, and they themselves joined in, like part of the legend.

And on Holy Spirit's Day, as a bonus, game characters also joined the parade.

A few reindeer exuding white light stepped over the people, and golden stars fell from their feet, scattered among the crowd.

People soon discovered that before entering the square, the gifted fairy rod-shaped net bag was used to catch the stars.

Some of these stars will turn into candy, some will turn into points for magic gear, and some will be little shiny lucky stars, whichever it is, it will excite the carnival night crowd.

"Daddy, help me catch that star!" Xueli ran around in the crowd in her little white boots.

"Okay, okay!" Mr. Rachel reached out to grab the star, but found that the star was gone, only the invisible rune in his palm was glowing faintly, "Oh, it's gone?"

"Really, it's not nice," complained Mrs. Rachel, with a smile.

She looked into the distance: "However, this organ is really beautiful."

"This is the hero of the Roy family!"

"It's a tradition! He once played the instrument in the dark night to guide the soldiers forward."

"To commemorate that war, they play different instruments every year during carnival night."

Someone vaguely said this, and it is not known whether the voice came from the past or the present.

Recifia, the eldest daughter of the Roy family, was playing the organ.

The place where she played was not her own dance hall in previous years, but on the tower of the city wall.

If the people of Cecilia City walked around the street, they would naturally gather under the city wall. In ancient times, the Duke of the Eastern Region also inspected his army and people here.

This year, the tower was specially cleaned up and changed into a ballroom, and Recifia's organ performance was also changed to this place, and she was going to receive the "twelve o'clock blessing" with the people of the whole city on the tower.

But in the dance hall of the tower, there were discordant voices.

"Who does she think she is? A princess? She wants to inspect the people arrogantly!"

"Hehe, our real crown prince is still here!"

The two aristocratic ladies sneered, they were obviously guests from the capital who followed the prince this time.

It's just different from the imagination of these nobles in the royal capital. They are sought after everywhere, but they are treated coldly in the "countryside" of the eastern border. , the ladies of each family directly turned back.

"Why not? This is the Principality of the Eastern Border."

"The Duke's daughter could have called herself a princess. We, Leia, were too humble to use this title."

"Besides, what is so rare about the prince? I heard that the prince is not good enough for our eldest lady, but I didn't expect that even the master of the alchemy workshop..."

"Hee hee hee, you are too rude to Mr. Heipao like this!"

The noble girls let out laughter, and the nobles from the capital shut up awkwardly.

They looked at His Highness the prince who was indulging in the crystal ball, and then at the black robe sitting next to the duke, they could only swallow the anger.

Because...he's so handsome!

That black robe!

His Royal Highness was instantly reduced to scum.

"After Miss Leia's performance is over, I will be the first to ask him to dance!"

"No! Master Heipao's first dance belongs to Missy!"

"Huh? According to the convention, isn't Her Highness Recifia's first dance with her fiancé?"

"Ah, Mr. Heipao's first dance is indeed mine!"

"No! It's me!"

The ladies over there were almost torn apart, and the black robes on top shivered.

"What's the matter? Your Excellency Angel." His Excellency noticed something wrong with the black robe.

"No, it's nothing." Angel lost the uneasiness in his heart, and his deep eyes looked somewhere in the night sky: "The mice are already in the trap!"

"boom--"

Accompanied by the words of the black robe, the beautiful pipe organ mixed with the loud sound of gunfire, the dinner of Holy Spirit Night was finally staged.
