The news of "Cobalt Ores on Sale at a Super Low Price" spread throughout Brex Avenue in less than ten minutes and spread throughout Duriel City at an unimaginable speed. After the initial onlookers, the five hundred pieces of cobalt ores immediately went into a "burst sale" mode. In the blink of an eye, more than three hundred pieces were sold, and the buyers changed from the initial peddlers, magical equipment store managers, and clerks to students, lecturers, and even vice principals of various academies …
After twenty minutes of this frenzy, it finally attracted the attention of the "law enforcers" of Duriel City. Usually, when it came to "business" issues, the "law enforcers" would not directly intervene. They were "enforcers" and were usually only responsible for taking action and did not have any other rights. Any commercial disputes in Lasiman City would be resolved by the white-robed "business arbitrators" of the "Business Administration". But obviously … the news of "Cobalt Ores on Sale at a Super Low Price" was tantamount to a bomb to Ballenner Academy. The higher-ups of the academy, who had been informed by Rotica long ago, immediately reacted as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
The measures they took were also very decisive. Using Councilor Rotica's huge influence in the Parliament, the higher-ups of Ballenner Academy collectively pressured the "law enforcers" to quickly resolve the situation, bypassing the "Business Administration" ruling. So when the red-robed "law enforcers" appeared on Brex Avenue, the onlookers who were still scrambling to buy the cobalt ores immediately realized that something was wrong. Regardless of whether they managed to buy it or not, almost everyone immediately scattered like birds and beasts …
Whether it was the high ranking vice principal of the academy or the peddlers who came late, no one dared to stay any longer. They all pretended to be passersby and left Erwin's stall.
Looking at the row of red-robed mages approaching from the corner of the street, Merlinsera stretched out her arms and stretched her limbs.
"Roddy's guess is pretty accurate."
*****
"Screech —"
The sound of tires rubbing against the ground could be heard. The rear-wheel drive "Firebolt" spun rapidly as Roddy pushed the "accelerator" all the way to the limit. In the next second, the "catapulted" car sped forward like an arrow!
The scenery around them quickly receded. Roddy held the handlebars leisurely. Although the stone pavement on the street was not smooth, the car was stable and comfortable at 70 km/h. There was almost no vibration …
This was the wondrous effect of the hovering spell formation.
Fifteen seconds after the "Firebolt" was activated, it traversed the entire square and went straight into the street. But when Roddy saw the other rune puppets in front of him, he had no choice but to slam on the brakes and decelerate. The track was too narrow, and the other rune puppets had yet to pull away from each other. At a glance, there were about seven or eight rune puppets squeezed together. The drivers of the rune puppets were so focused on adjusting the various arrays that they didn't notice the inconspicuous figure behind them.
Roddy was not in a hurry. The entire 93-kilometer track would probably take an hour and a half. Therefore, he hummed a song as he followed behind, looking left and right, as if he was driving a convertible for a leisurely ride.
What he did not know was that at this moment, a group of mages on the floating space tower were pointing at Rody and gossiping.
Because the speed at which Roddy traversed the square was too shocking. The other rune puppets took at least a minute to traverse the entire square, but Roddy's Firebolt traversed like a bolt of lightning in fifteen seconds. Many mages thought that the "Firebolt" magic circle had gone out of control …
"If this goes on, it will definitely explode!"
"Whether it explodes or not, how far can he run? What kind of Magic Crystal can withstand it in this situation? "
Even the most authoritative puppeteer, the president of the parliament, Jeremy, was frightened by Roddy. But when Roddy braked easily and followed behind the other rune puppets at a steady speed, he was surprised. "… There's no energy disorder?"
Not far away, Doris didn't realize what Roddy's move meant. She held the drink in her hand and looked at the distant horizon in boredom. When she noticed that Miranda and Evelyn were frowning and staring down, she couldn't help but be curious. "What's wrong? Are there any rune puppets that are destroyed? "
Every year, the rune puppets that crashed into the wall, broke, or exploded on the spot due to various reasons were also one of the "viewing pleasures", so Doris asked. However, Evelyn's expression was solemn. She stared down and asked without turning her head, "Doris, did that guy tell you where his rune puppets came from?"
"He didn't mention it. Why? Can that thing he assembled at the last minute really run? "
Doris looked down and almost threw the drink in her hand out of the floating space tower. Because at that moment, she just happened to see Roddy weaving through the crowd like a swimming dragon, directly overtaking the twelve rune puppets!
The third group of rune puppets finally entered the square of Tim Academy in the northern part of Duriel after running through the six-kilometer narrow track. Without hesitation, Roddy stepped on the accelerator and easily overtook the twelve rune puppets in front of him at the distance of five hundred meters. He broke away from the third group in one fell swoop and directly bit the tail of the second group!
In the process of overtaking, one of the Brenka Academy's rune puppets tried to turn around and stop his advance. But how could an eight-meter-long, three-meter-wide "big guy" be as agile as Roddy's "Fire Bolt"? In addition, it was in the process of accelerating at full speed. Therefore, when the huge puppet suddenly turned around, because one of its legs couldn't withstand the huge inertia, three or four of them instantly snapped, which directly led to the accident of "overturning" …
"Rumble —"
The parts of the overturned puppet flew everywhere. One of the Moffett Academy's rune puppets behind it couldn't dodge in time and was hit on the spot, almost smashing the Brenka Academy's rune puppet into two. The mage driving immediately activated the protective array, and only then did the tragedy of "vehicle crash and people die" was avoided. But it was obvious that these two rune puppets had unavoidably withdrawn from the race.
What about Roddy? When the Brenka Academy driver stood up and tried to find him, he discovered that the shadow of the "Fire Bolt" had already disappeared at the end of the square at the track …
