Chapter 38

Embassy of the Jialan Empire.

Instructors and students from the Federal Republic gathered together.

"The time has been set, and the competition is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, from the fourth grade to the first grade, one grade at a time, one grade at a time." One of the instructors said as he sent the message he had just received to everyone in the room.

"Professor, why did the fourth grade compete first? Shouldn't you start in first grade? Otherwise, if it goes on like this, the more it will be in the future, the more uninteresting it will be. A girl with long, wavy red hair, her petite figure, her white face and a pair of emerald green eyes flashing with dissatisfaction, was none other than Helena, a first-year student at the Federal University.

Although she is only a first-year student, because of her strong background, she came into contact with mecha early, and she studied under a mecha master, and now she can design and manufacture A-class mecha - similar to her situation, it is only the current Empress Dowager of the Jialan Empire, Shangguan Gongyu. It is said that when Shangguan Gongyu entered the school, although the design and manufacture was also A-level, it was A-level.

From this point of view, Helena felt that her future achievements would definitely be much more brilliant than the Queen Mother of the Najia Blue Empire - not to mention, how young she was, and now there was no one of her generation who could compare to her!

Young people, naturally, like to show off, Helena has been preparing for this competition for a long time, and she originally planned to make a perfect opening that shocked the public during the competition - she believes that with her own strength, even if she is not prepared in advance, she will definitely be able to crush the opponent of the empire! Now that she has been able to make a Mecha of A, it will definitely not be a problem for an S-class Mecha in time, and the professors in the school have praised her as a genius, and she is definitely sure to become the youngest Mecha Master!

As a result, she didn't expect such a heavyweight self to be arranged to the end - she didn't care if the finale was not the finale, and the arrogant Helena only knew that the limelight she wanted was gone, and she was not happy at all.

"Nonsense, this is a competition, not a performance, what do you need to watch?" Logge Lee reprimanded sharply.

Although Logge Lee is gentle and steady in the face of outsiders, she is actually very stern, Helena relies on her own talent, and she is quite a little afraid of heaven and earth, but in front of Logge Lee, she can only be a good girl.

"But what if the fourth-grade seniors are allowed to play first, then the people on the other side of the empire will find out that we are excellent and play tricks in the next competition?" Helena frowned and pouted.

As good as she is, her partner is only a first-year, so the real highlight is in the senior class. However, if those Imperials find out that their Federation has become very powerful, they will definitely make small moves.

Zhao Xueran glanced at Helena, who was pouting, and said with a smile: "What about making small moves?" The game is only four days long, is it possible that they can still turn over in such a short time? "With that said, I already feel that the winning side is an ironclad thing.

But the rest of the people didn't think it was wrong, they were all from the Federal Republic, not to mention, they really came prepared this time.

"Helena, it was precisely because we were sure this time that we won them in one go. Come to think of it, isn't it great to have a one-sided heyday? Wen Sheng comforted Helena as a fourth-grade senior, he was also a dominant, although he couldn't compare to Helena's talent, but he was also the head of the first grade, and because he was gentle and polite and good-looking, he was the most popular "male god" in their school.

With the comfort of the male god, even if the other party is a dominator like herself, Helena couldn't help but blush: "Then, that senior Pei Qi come on!" She squinted her eyes and gloated a little, "You must kill those Imperials in the game!" ”

"Awake?"

As soon as Tang Wuqiu opened his eyes, he saw Saroman standing bent over the side of the bed, his face less than a centimeter away from Saloman's face.

Tang Wuqiu was startled, but he was already lying down, and he couldn't retreat at all: "Saloman, what are you doing so close?" Tang Wuqiu touched the quilt next to him, there was not much temperature left, it seemed that Saroman had been up for a while.

"Hmm, isn't it all about the story that Sleeping Beauty needs a kiss to wake up?" Saroman straightened up and smiled.

Since Tang Wuqiu and Saroman opened the "no shame and no shame" mode, holding hands, hugging the waist and kissing small mouths or something is commonplace, and because of this, Tang Wuqiu will basically maintain the appearance of a human unless he is extremely mentally tired.

Saloman's words made Tang Wuqiu stunned for a moment, his eyes fluttered, and his face was full of embarrassment: "What kind of sleeping beauty, what are you doing watching those fairy tales as a dominator?" He remembered that the story of Sleeping Beauty should be liked by a little girl like Bai Saluo, right?

Saroman didn't care, bent down and kissed Tang Wuqiu's forehead, and then dug the person out of the bed: "Although I really want you to sleep a little longer, but today is the day of the competition, and it's not good if you miss it." ”

Tang Wuqiu blinked, and when he felt a little cold on his body, he realized that he had been stripped naked by Saloman.

Hurriedly jumped down and pushed Saroman away, grabbed the uniform that was put aside and put it on his body: "Don't come here, I'll dress myself!" If Saroman is allowed to wear, it is estimated that he will not be able to wear it well for half an hour!

"What does it matter? I've seen it all anyway, well, I've touched it too. Saroman smiled nonchalantly.

Tang Wuqiu's face turned red and looked at Saroman viciously, but Saroman smiled more and more proudly.

"Saloman, what's going on with you today, are you too excited because you're going to have a mecha competition today?" Tang Wuqiu put on his coat and almost rolled his eyes, he didn't have a good airway.

Saroman raised an eyebrow and said with interest, "Excited? No, I'm not excited at all, I should say I'm angry," this is not the first time he has experienced this, but, "It's just that the thought of my baby showing heroism in front of so many audiences makes me want to poke their eyes one by one~"

Tang Wuqiu looked at Saroman angrily, and the action of arranging the opponent's cuffs also stopped, and said a little irritablely: "I haven't had a game today!" ”

Saroman sneered and said, "But they're already watching you." ”

When Tang Wuqiu heard Saloman's words, he suddenly became angry—they were more concerned about their own identity? It's been almost a week, and I'm still on the hot search on the Internet! It's all the bastard's fault.

"Alright, let's go down for breakfast, I'll send you later." Saloman restrained the expression on his face and said, It's good to announce the relationship, now I can pick up and drop off my own house anytime and anywhere, this feeling of showing affection feels very cool〈( ̄) ̄)〈~

······

In the sports hall, countless students gathered to watch the game.

Because it involves the relationship between countries, this reopened mecha competition naturally can't be carried out like the previous one that can be carried out with a holographic helmet or lying in a holographic cabin.

The current way of competition is that the obedient people on both sides of the game first draw the mecha, and then evaluate the mecha design drawings and score them; After that, the respective mecha design drawings are used for "simulated manufacturing", and then the finished product is displayed, evaluated, and scored; Next, the Dominators of both sides enter the holographic pod, and then each team pilots the mechs "made" by the obedient ones in their respective teams to fight each other and score points. In the end, the three were combined to determine the outcome of the game.

This may seem like a simple step, but it basically takes five hours, or more.

Therefore, it is a great drain on both mental power and body.

When Tang Wu was seeking the Tao, many contestants had already arrived.

"Tang Wuqiu!" Seeing Tang Wuqiu, Wang Zheng and Xiong Suying, who had been looking around, immediately waved their hands.

Tang Wuqiu nodded to them, but he didn't go over - he was a contestant now, and even if he didn't have his competition now, he couldn't sit in the audience.

And because of Wang Zheng and Xiong Suying's shouts, most of the audience who had been buzzing and discussing also turned their eyes to it - this is the first time they have seen "live" since the regent announced his fiancé!

Tang Wuqiu was not unable to bear the gaze of others, but the eyes of tens of thousands of people with strong curiosity and gossip couldn't help but make him feel a little cold, and even a little glad that although this was an exchange competition between countries, but considering that this was between students, it was not open to the general public, otherwise more eyes would have to give him the illusion that he was being "dissected"!

"Haha, don't be nervous, everyone is just curious about who can capture the heart of His Excellency the Regent," a hearty laugh came from far and near, and a tall purple-gray short-haired ruler walked over, and then approached Tang Wuqiu, "Sure enough, it's a rare beauty...... Oh! ”

Behind him, a short-haired ruler with a cold and stern expression withdrew his hand: "Radcliffe, pay attention to your behavior, this is the Prince Regent, you are really rude." ”

Tang Wuqiu: "......"

"No, that, actually, [the uncanny valley theory] is a hypothesis about how humans feel about human beings and non-human objects. It was hypothesized in 1969 by Masahiro Mori, a Japanese expert on the machine qì people, that when the machine qì people were more than 95% similar to humans. Since the machine qì people and humans are quite similar in appearance and action, human beings will also have positive feelings towards the machine qì people; It is not until a certain point that their reaction suddenly becomes extremely disgusted. Even if there is a slight difference between the machine and the human, it will be very conspicuous and dazzling, making the whole machine person look very stiff and terrifying, making people feel like facing the walking dead. The higher the degree of simulation of a humanoid toy or machine, the more favorable people will be, but when a critical point is reached, this favorability will suddenly decrease, and the more human-like people are, the more disgusted and fearful, until the bottom is called the uncanny valley. However, as the resemblance of human appearance and movement to that of humans continues to rise, the emotional response of humans to them will also turn back to positive, close to the empathetic effect between humans and humans. Perhaps because of this, many experts try to avoid the appearance of "machine qì people" being too personified, in order to avoid falling into the "uncanny valley trap". 】
