Time passed quickly.
Finally, it was the day of the Regional Tournament.
In order to welcome this long-awaited match, Euphemia purposely declined all visits and stood beside Ray Mingkai to welcome the arrival of this moment with him.
"Uffi, let's go in!" Ray Mingkai stood in front of the entrance of the Regional Tournament's venue and looked at the crowds of three to five people around him as he spoke softly.
"Okay, let's go! Kai! " Euphemia walked gracefully and followed behind Ray Mingkai. Her beautiful appearance made others envious.
Originally, Sinneman and Marida had agreed to participate in this competition together with Ray Mingkai and Euphemia. However, before they left, Sinneman and Marida seemed to have received an urgent mission. Their expressions suddenly became serious. After hurriedly giving instructions, they let Ray Mingkai and Euphemia participate in the competition by themselves.
The two, who were fully focused on the competition, didn't care too much about what mission Sinneman and Marida had to leave in a hurry. Instead, the moment they entered the venue through the contestant's special passage, they were shocked by the packed audience.
"So many people!" Euphemia, no, even Ray Mingkai, who was familiar with the plot, didn't expect that the real Steel Pula Battle would be so popular.
Even if it was only the preliminaries of the Regional Tournament, the packed audience was enough to prove how popular the Steel Pula Battle was in this world.
"Uffi, are you scared?" Ray Mingkai took a step forward and stood in the middle of the arena. He extended his right hand toward Euphemia.
Euphemia shook her head, indicating that she wasn't scared at all. That was true. As the Empire's third princess, the occasions she faced were always more popular and more popular than this. As long as there was a slightly timid member of the royal family, they wouldn't be able to stand on the world stage.
"Kai. You're finally here! I've been waiting for you for a long time! "
As the two of them walked hand in hand towards the center of the arena where the four huge Steel Pula Battle Platforms were placed, a confident and charismatic young man blocked their way.
Seeing the young man's appearance, Ray Mingkai chuckled.
"What? Feeling lonely? No one can make you burn. "
"Yes. The Mechs built by the contestants here were all pretty good. However, they don't have the strength to make me burn. " Tatsuya Yuki shook his head, not bothering to hide his disappointment. Then he saw Euphemia holding hands with Ray Mingkai.
"Oh? Kai. Could it be that the reason you disappeared for a few days was to pursue this beautiful lady? You've really disappointed me. "
Eh …
Looking at Tatsuya Yuki's obvious expression of disappointment, Ray Mingkai realized that this guy must have misunderstood something.
"Yuesheng, this is my partner, Euphemia VI Brittania."
"Hello! I am Euphemia VI Brittania. I am Kai's partner. " Euphemia lightly let go of Ray Mingkai's hand and gracefully performed a salute to Tatsuya Yuki.
Euphemia's noble elegance made Tatsuya Yuki have the misconception that the girl in front of him was an empire's princess. And Tatsuya Yuki who hurriedly denied this misconception did not know that Euphemia was indeed an empire's princess.
"Hello! I am Tatsuya Yuki. It seems that I misunderstood. I am very sorry! " Tatsuya Yuki placed his right hand on his chest and saluted to Euphemia. Then, he continued to look at Ray Mingkai and said, "Kai, what round is your name?"
“16。”
"My name is the fourth round. It seems that I, Makoto Ito, and you won't meet in the preliminary round. "Tatsuya Yuki revealed a trace of a smile.
After all, no one wanted to meet a strong opponent on the first stage. Although that way, they could quickly engage in an unrestrained battle with a strong opponent, but as far as the stage was concerned, it was still too small.
"Makoto Ito? What round is his name? "
"His name is on the seventh round. You guys can watch from the side first, how about it? "Tatsuya Yuki gave a suggestion.
Ray Mingkai moved his gaze and looked at the serious or nervous expression of the surrounding contestants, then nodded his head.
"Then, I will see you later." Tatsuya Yuki waved his hand and turned to step onto the stage that was about to begin.
"He is the strong opponent you mentioned before?" Euphemia withdrew her gaze and looked at Ray Mingkai suspiciously.
"Right now, he probably isn't, but later on in this match, he will be. Right now, Tatsuya Yuki is just a young man who loves Steel Pula battles. " Ray Mingkai said something that Euphemia didn't understand at all. Then, he pulled Euphemia to the side and waited for their time to come.
At this time, outside the venue.
Sinneman and Marida were sitting in a car parked on the side of the road, looking at the venue where the preliminary round of the regional tournament was being held with a serious expression.
"Has it started?" Marida took out her personal terminal and transferred the signal to the live broadcast of the Steel Pula battles.
"Kai's order of appearance is?" Sinneman withdrew her gaze and asked.
"It's the 16th round. There's still time. Should we go in? "Marida asked back.
"No. We won't go back first. We still need to keep an eye on this side! "Sinneman curled her lips and looked unhappy. "If it weren't for the need to stabilize the development of this world, how could there be room for the bastard who calls himself C?"
"Originally, we planned to let C take on a position similar to the main AI of the fortress, but we didn't expect them to try to get close to us." Marida shook her head and pressed a few buttons on the projection channel released by her personal terminal. Then, she looked at the Steel Pula models displayed on the screen in silence.
"In fact, this is inevitable. Every year, in the Steel Pula competition, there will be a large group of rich people waving 100 million yuan around. Over time, even a pig will wonder where the "leeks" that grow every year came from. "
With that said, Sinneman sighed.
"I didn't expect that in this peaceful world, there would be such annoying things! Marida, can you request for some ELS sentinels to come over? "
"How is that possible? ELS sentinels don't exist for these trivial matters. They all have important space-time investigation missions. "Marida angrily refuted Sinneman's suggestion.
"Yeah! Clearly, we have high-level technology, but we can only use such an inefficient method. It's really frustrating! "Sinneman showed a very unhappy expression.
"They're here."
Suddenly, Marida put away her personal terminal and looked at the other side of the venue, the more remote corner.
Under the gaze of Marida and Sinneman, a tall man wearing a black hat, a black coat, and sunglasses slowly walked into the corner with a suitcase in his hand and quietly waited there.
In less than a minute, another figure appeared.
"It's him?"
Who would have thought that the appearance of this figure would surprise Schinneman.
"Dad. You know him? "
"Mhmm. It's the preparatory team led by Brigadier General Lars. Could it be that he was the one who leaked the information about us? "
"Let's take a look first!"
After the man in black finished the transaction, he planned to go around the venue and leave along another more remote path. However, Sinneman, who saw the opportunity, ordered the people lying in ambush to capture him.
"Captain. This guy is too cowardly. He confessed in an instant. "
Sinneman and Marida didn't have to wait long before the results of the interrogation came out. However, with the fresh interrogation report in hand, Sinneman felt that her people seemed to be making a mountain out of a molehill.
"Troublesome. It turns out that those C's didn't discover our existence, but some idiot was showing off that he was a tycoon and accidentally let it slip. "
"So, in addition to operating the Steel Pula model black market, these C's are also secretly collecting information about us?" Marida used her personal terminal to look at the interrogation video and nodded.
"It's very possible. But for now, we can at least request for some support. Marida, send a request for support to the Administration! We can't let those C's spread our existence everywhere! "
"Understood. But what about the preparatory team members who let it slip? Will they be eliminated? "Marida raised a new question.
"About this! I have a plan. I believe Kai will be very happy when he knows. " Sinneman rubbed her chin, opened her personal terminal, and began to organize her thoughts. She sent an urgent document to the Director of the Administration's mailbox.
"Okay! As long as this plan is approved, then Kai won't need to go through the regional competition and can directly advance to the world competition. "
Looking at her father's serious expression, Maritan couldn't help but laugh. "Aren't you opening the back door for Kai?"
"Is that so? If we defeat Makoto Ito and the others in the preliminaries, I'm afraid even Izhii won't be satisfied. I'm just letting Kai complete the mission perfectly. "
Schinneman patted his chest, not bothering to hide his smugness. That look of his made Maritan burst into laughter.
"Beep beep!"
Not long after, an email from the Director of the Administration was sent to Sinneman's personal terminal.
Sinneman opened it, and her eyes immediately lit up.
"Marida. My proposal has been approved! It seems that the Director also knows something about the situation here. "
"Oh, is that so?"
"Look. The Director mentioned the preparatory team members who let it slip in this paragraph, and asked them to do their best to fight. After burning their last bit of value, they will be sent back to their world through memory manipulation. "
"They still need to perform memory manipulation? It seems that the Director is already angry. "
