It was still morning, and the Babylonian floating island faded into the night and woke up in the bright sun. Millions of noble people poured into the streets and occupied the main traffic arteries early in the morning, so when Allen sat in an extended magic energy flying car prepared for him, he could see through the window the grand scene of his first arrival on the floating island.
People cheered on both sides of the highway, and two steam airships continuously replayed Allen's wonderful scenes in the death arena above the city. Every time Allen released the Flaming Moon when he fought Ans, it would cause a scream from a young girl.
Tens of thousands of white pigeons were released as the flying car drove up Goldwing Avenue and headed towards Aurora Square. A flock of white birds soared into the blue sky and circled around the plaza before flying to other parts of the floating island. As soon as the flock of pigeons left, the five guard airships dragged colorful smoke across the sky, crisscrossing and spinning above the plaza. After making all sorts of thrilling flying movements, they lined up and soared into the sky, disappearing into the clouds!
Following the sound of the band playing music from the direction of the plaza, the passionate battle songs caused the crowd to echo. For a moment, Babylon's music shook the heavens, and the atmosphere was warm.
Allen was secretly speechless. He never thought that the award ceremony for the winners of the death arena would be so grand. At this moment, Tonislaw, who was sitting beside him, stuffed several pages of paper. "Darling, you still have 10 minutes to memorize the lines on this. This is all carefully designed by me for you, and it will definitely win the applause of the audience. "
Tonislaw said confidently. Allen shook his head helplessly and picked up the lines to read. Fortunately, his memory was astonishing, and he basically had a photographic memory. In less than five minutes, he had already memorized these words.
Aurora Square is a public area in Babylon and a landmark built to commemorate the final victory of humanity in the Battle of Dawn. The Aurora Square was as big as a gymnasium. In its center, there were nine bronze pillars. The pillars were engraved with the war deeds of the nine human heroes in the Battle of Dawn. They told the people of the future about that epic past in the form of copper plates.
There was also an opera house in the square, and the award ceremony was held on the open-air stage of the opera house. The magic energy flying car brought Allen and the other two to the back of the theater. They quietly entered the theater through the green passageway and then quietly arrived at the back of the open-air stage.
When the magic clock in the square pointed to eight, the band stopped playing. A gaudily dressed abbot ran onto the open-air stage and immediately won the cheers of the audience below.
"Ladies of Babylon, I love you! Of course, I also respect every man present. So don't worry, the previous sentence was just a joke. The witty Baggins will never give you the chance to duel with me. " The host used a humorous opening speech to make the audience chuckle before he said, "Everyone, I believe that everyone is as excited as I am at this moment. Just last night, the 211th Death Stage quietly came to an end. The winner of this competition is a very outstanding youth from District 13 on the surface. "
"Speaking of this young man, I believe everyone has a deep impression of him. Just as he set foot in Babylon, his aristocratic temperament amazed us. And in this cruel competition, he showed us courage and wisdom! That's right, he is Allen! " The host turned around abruptly and waved his hand in the direction of the back stage. "Now, let us use our warmest cheers to invite out the winner of the new Death Arena, Mr. Allen!"
"Allen!"
"Allen!"
"Allen!"
In the square, the audience cheered in unison. Tonislaw pushed Allen and said, "Go, baby, let them cheer for you!"
Allen took a deep breath and walked out of the back stage with a fighting mood, stepping onto the open-air stage. When he looked out from the stage, his eyes were filled with a dense crowd of people. The shocking scene made him speechless for a moment. On both sides of the square, there was a huge screen, and Allen's figure clearly appeared. When the camera zoomed in and gave Allen a close-up of his face, many girls screamed at him crazily.
Hearing the screams coming from the square, Tonislaw closed his eyes in intoxication, as if he was the one being warmly welcomed, not Allen.
The host made a "quiet" gesture with his hand before calling Allen to his side and saying, "Allen, I heard that you had a chance to leave without participating in this cruel competition?"
"Yes?"
"Then can you tell me why you're standing here?"
"Because" Allen's eyes flashed with his mother's parting eyes once again. "Because I want a chance to change my fate. Only then will I have the strength to do something. Something very important! "
"What an amazing determination."
Next, the host threw out a few more questions, and Allen followed Tonislaw's lines. While reading the lines, Allen's mind had already flown elsewhere. This was just a performance for him, and such a performance even disgusted him. However, he already knew that sometimes a wonderful performance could allow him to move forward with fewer obstacles and more resources.
Therefore, he didn't mind suppressing his slight disgust and cooperating with these people to perform the image they wanted to see. Imperial Legacy
After the audience cheered again and again, the award ceremony finally came to an end. Allen, who had won the death arena, would receive a generous reward from the Federation government. Among them were a set of magic energy weapons, a high-grade physical enhancement potion, 20,000 Federation coins, and the right of abode on the floating island. All the rewards were reflected in a small electronic magnetic card.
With this magnetic card, Allen could exchange for his reward at any time.
After the award ceremony, there was a regular band performance and dancers to accompany the music, pushing the atmosphere to another level. But at this time, there was nothing left for Allen on the stage. He put the exchange card close to his body and followed host Baggins off the stage. The host, who seemed to be famous in Babylon, handed Allen a business card and asked him to come to his company if he was interested. Baggins pointed out that Allen had the potential to become a superstar, which was the same as Tonislaw.
However, Allen wasn't interested in being a screen star. In less than five minutes after putting away the business card, he threw it into the trash can of the theater.
"Mr. Allen."
As soon as he returned to the back/stage, Alstair, who was talking to Tonislaw, stopped him. The Chancellor of the Exchequer walked over with a big belly and patted Allen on the shoulder enthusiastically. "Let's go, I'll take you to see someone."
Alstair took him through the stage and into the Grand Theater. Opening the door of the theater, it was dark inside. The minister pushed Allen in with both hands. He closed the door with a smile, and darkness engulfed Allen.
After a short period of darkness, a spotlight beam landed on the stage of the theater, followed by a second, a third … A total of five beams of light landed on the stage and finally converged into one. As a result, a figure appeared in the light. That slender and familiar figure made Allen's heart beat faster.
"Lucy?" He called softly.
The man moved and slowly turned around. At this moment, it was as if a river of stars had flickered, as if a magnificent nebula had bloomed with the most extreme beauty towards Allen. Lucy was dressed in a splendid dress, and the golden Chang'an was tied high on a crown decorated with many gems. The graceful curve of the white swan's neck extended down, and it was the sexy and alluring collarbone.
A necklace composed of a string of gems in the shape of stars and crescent moons decorated the overly blank chest area. Half of the proud twin peaks were exposed, and a shallow ravine disappeared under the long dress. The fine workmanship of the robe outlined the beautiful curves of the girl, and a large piece of gorgeous skirt spread behind her, like a peacock spreading its tail.
The long dress was silver-white, with light golden curves outlining the ostentatious and complex lines, forming a mysterious pattern. Looking at it, it was like the Milky Way, and on it was decorated with large and small diamonds, sparkling like stars under the light! Immortal Immortal Path
Even if Allen didn't know much about goods, he knew that this long dress alone must have cost a lot.
Lucy held the skirt and gently turned. Thousands of diamonds flashed on the body of the dress, like thousands of fireflies floating down gracefully. The girl smiled lightly and said: "Does it look good?"
"Yes, I almost didn't recognize you." Allen nodded.
"That's right, I also don't think this thing is my style, but the teacher insisted that I wear it, it's so uncomfortable!" Lucy said carelessly, instantly her noble image collapsed, but returned to the appearance that Allen was familiar with.
Lucy jumped off the stage without any image. At this time, all the lights in the theater lit up one by one, illuminating the room as bright as day. Lucy shook her head and reached out to take off the luxurious crown, allowing the gold on her head to sprinkle down like a stream of morning light. She shook the crown in her hand and said, "You don't even know how heavy this thing is. It's so uncomfortable to wear it on your head."
Looking at her annoyed expression, Allen finally couldn't help but laugh.
This was the Lucy he knew, flying and jumping like July's flowing fire!
Lucy casually threw the crown aside and walked towards Allen. Suddenly, she gave him a strong hug. Allen's heart skipped a beat. A moment later, he closed his eyes and hugged this slender body back.
"Allen, actually … I'm not a human from your Earth." Lucy stretched out her hand and gently pulled back her long hair, revealing ears that were sharper and thinner than humans, just like the legendary elves. "I am … from Adahua Planet."
"It doesn't matter. Anyway, I just need to know that you're Lucy." Allen let go of her, took two steps back, and said seriously.
Lucy nodded vigorously, "So you don't think I'm strange, do you?"
"You are indeed very strange." Allen smiled and said, "However, that has nothing to do with your identity."
Lucy immediately shouted, "Then you mean my personality!"
Then, she laughed as well. Lucy laughed and whispered, "I'm leaving."
