Chapter 24: His Meow's Friendship First!
Looking at Victor's embarrassed expression, Angelica couldn't help but feel funny, obviously this guy wanted to escape from marriage, and now he felt embarrassed. To put it bluntly, how can these people have the heart to care whether he escapes marriage or not, it is estimated that no one cares at all except the Holy See.
Maybe you'll be happy to eat melons and watch.
And the Pope also continued at this time: "As for the wedding date, it is already set a week after the closing ceremony of this New Generation Games, so I hope that all of you here can stay in the Holy City for a while longer, just as it is a relaxation after the competition, and our Holy See will provide the highest treatment to entertain you, so please leave your blessings at Victor's wedding." β
After speaking, the Pope clapped his hands, and a huge screen hung down from the ceiling of the atrium, just like the LCD screen or LED screen in the previous life, but most of these things were made of amethyst and magic circuits, and the operating principle was not very compatible with scientific and technological civilization, after all, it was the product of tens of thousands of years of development of magical civilization, and the foundation and essence were still magic.
In terms of energy supply, it is driven by the Holy See's unique Holy Light Circuit, except for a few forces that also use special energy circuits with the Holy See, all other countries use universal magic circuits, which provide the operation of the circuit by converting resources containing magic into pure magic power.
In fact, it is not only this kind of screen, but also the printing of books and newspapers using the printing press of magic technology, the construction of railways between countries, the roaring magic light rail shuttles back and forth, and even the popularization of television media full of magical characteristics. This is the inertia of the development of civilization, no matter what civilization it is, it is incomparably brilliant and great, and its development will always be the same way. What magic can do, science can do to a certain level.
Science and magic are always two sides of the same coin, and they may be different in appearance, but the direction of practical application is the same.
The only difference is in the individual's combat effectiveness, even if the degree of advancement in many aspects is almost the same as or even more than that of the technological civilization in the previous life, but if there is an orthodox time-traveling protagonist, his first impression of this place must be like a medieval civilization.
Therefore, such a long history may have benefited from the fact that there has been no discontinuity, resulting in people's aesthetics almost unchanged, and new design schools may have appeared in clothing, architecture, etc., but the clothing and architecture of this most orthodox magical civilization will always be the mainstream.
Because of the height of the ceiling, it takes a certain amount of time for the screen to come down, and Victor starts to communicate with the system.
Speaking of which, the system guy also calls himself "Lucifer", and he is also a strange guy, shouldn't the system be a cold machine? and then collect money and sell goods, like a vending machine.
But this ...... for yourself
It's like taking a Taobao customer service, or the kind that sits 24 hours a day without rest.
"Anyway, there is such a thing in the wizarding world, and the painting style is not right, okay!"
"Is magic technology amazing?" The system, or Lucifer's tone was obviously contemptuous, as if he was despising Victor for not seeing the big world, "Whether it is a pure magical civilization or a magic technology civilization, these are all branches of the same technology tree, and the final origin is exactly the same, including the technology civilization is also a member of this technology tree." β
"But there are infinite civilizations in the Endless Void, and they are also a branch of this technology tree, but they are just far away, and they seem to be two different civilizations. Lucifer wrote to Victor Science, "Some civilizations don't even have a physical entity, and they are born to live in inorganic matter, which also allows them to develop an incomparably brilliant space mechanical civilization." β
β...... You're not talking about his Meow's Cybertron, do you?"
"Look, don't you know! Don't you think that the development direction of this civilization is more fancy than that of magic technology?" Lucifer smiled, and then said with sincerity, "So I want you to get the power as soon as possible, break through the shackles of this material world, become a god, or advance to the epicβof course, I prefer to advance to the epic, the limitations of the gods are still relatively large." β
"Once I have gained enough strength, I am in the heart of the Endless Void, and here I am, looking forward to the day when I will meet you. β
Lucifer's voice became very sincere.
"Huh, aren't you a system attached to me?"
β...... I suggest you go and look at your brain, you use your mobile phone to visit Taobao store, is it possible that this store is in your mobile phone?"
"Gan, you finally admit that you are a customer service, right?"
......
The screen finally fell in front of everyone, just too far away and there was no control, although I knew that this screen was very large, but when it completely fell in front of people, I couldn't help but sigh.
The Holy See is so damn rich.
As mentioned earlier, this kind of screen is "generally" made of "amethyst", but the Holy See really didn't have such an ordinary object as amethyst in its inventory at that time, so there was no way, so it simply used another thing that looked similar to the material to make it.
Star Diamond.
This one is taller than the body of an adult cloud giant (about eight to ten meters), and the length is at least twice the height of the visual inspection, and such a large screen is not made of a huge number of star diamonds through alchemy, but with a whole piece of star diamonds!
Who has ever seen this posture!
Although everyone can afford it in terms of value, they are not lucky.
Just when everyone was envious and jealous, the huge Star Diamond screen lit up, and a huge schedule gradually appeared on it.
"You have all seen it, this time we have added two major projects in addition to the traditional twenty-six major events, namely the alchemy puppet battle and the small and medium-sized Warcraft obstacle course, a total of twenty-eight major events, sixty-four small events, a total of sixty-four gold medals, please bring back the registration project form to the team leader of the delegation, fill it out tomorrow and hand it over to the staff of the organizing committee to arrange the schedule, once handed in, the contestants shall not be changed, so the only one who should respond to the fire must choose carefully. The Pope smiled at a kind and amiable person, and those who didn't know really thought he was a kind old man, "Here, I hope that all the contestants, in line with the principle of friendship first and competition second, will compete at a high level and in style!
As soon as the Pope finished speaking, there was a tidal wave of applause below, and everyone burst into tears and was impassioned, and strengthened their determination to never fight bravely and ruthlessly, and the friendship of all delegations came first......
It's weird.
"Meow a! Listen to me, little bunnies! Don't give me any about "friendship comes first, competition comes second"! Your goal is to win a gold medal! If you can't win a gold medal, you can win a silver medal! If possible, the higher the ranking, the happier I will be! Just squeeze me forward! We are the hosts! If you don't win the first medal table, you're embarrassed to go out and say hello to others!"
All the delegations have left the atrium and returned to their inns or hotels to discuss and adjust the registration of the contestants. The Holy See's delegation, on the other hand, stayed with Vogel and House after everyone left.
And where is the Pope's amiable appearance just now at this moment, even the usual Pope is gone, leaving only an old man like a horse thief and bandit, wearing the Pope's costume and sitting in front of everyone, shouting viciously.
Everyone looked at the Pope in front of them with an expression of "I know", there will be such a day in every New Generation Games, and the stability is like the ebb and flow of the tide, and the iron cannot be moved.
Behind the people at the pre-war mobilization meeting, Victor boredly counted Angelica's hair as she drank black tea, and the soft and fiery red hair slid into the palm of her hand, like the most beautiful silk thread in the world.
"Victor, Victor, little bastard!" Hearing the Pope's self-indulgent voice, Victor picked his ears impatiently, and stood up from the back, he had been waiting for a long time, Angelica's long hair had been tied into a perfect bun by him.
With his eyes closed, he knew what the Pope wanted him to do, and he must have wanted him to be the so-called "emergency player".
"It's coming, it's coming, it's still calling souls, it's still urging you! Have you ever learned banshee screams or orc war cries before becoming a pope?
Vogel gestured his thick middle finger at Victor, which said, "Don't piggyback on me, I'm quiet." β
"Each person can sign up for up to two events, and in addition to being a firefighter for the fire, you'll also have to participate in spellcasting skills competitions and unlimited combat competitions. β
The arrangement of this project was expected by Victor a long time ago, which means that only one person can apply for two events, but as long as there is no limit, the old man will definitely let himself participate in every competition, and he will definitely do it.
However, this is the same for other forces, if there is no limit, the strongest genius will definitely sign up for all the projects he is good at, in order to maximize the better ranking.
"Don't be too happy, the most important team battle of the New Generation Games every year is to be commanded by you!" The Pope pointed at Victor, and his voice became two points louder, "You must lead the team to win the championship for me! You must win it! If you can't get it, you won't want to buy another picture book in your life! In the last session, I was actually won the championship by the druids of the Nature God Cult! That guy from Cenarius taunted me in front of my face for five whole years! Lao Tzu must take revenge! If I encounter someone from the Nature God Cult, I will die for it!"
The more the Pope spoke, the more excited he became, and the picture of being ridiculed sounded, and he was so angry that he jumped to his feet.
Who said those druids who seem to be honest and honest! Fart!
Suddenly, a beautiful woman dressed in a gray robe and wearing a golden laurel crown on her head walked in from outside the atrium door. She walked in with a blank face and walked all the way to Victor, only to greet Angelica halfway through.
Victor tilted his head to look, and then an evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The smile made the Pope tremble.
"Master, look at my master! He actually threatened me!" Victor actually hugged the gray-robed woman directly, buried his head on the woman's shoulders and rubbed it, like a coquettish cat, "In order for him to compete with the Cenarius Grand Druid, he actually has to sacrifice his apprentice who is like a parent and my happiness!"
The gray-robed woman is naturally the gray-robed Cardinal Clearer, the eldest of the ascetics, the Pope's ex-wife, and Victor's own teacher.
Kraire hugged Victor with a loving and doting face, and then gently stroked the hair on the back of Victor's head. For her, Victor is her own son at all, after all, she was already a legend when she was combined with Virgil, and the high level of life of the two made it quite difficult to give birth to an heir, and after adopting Victor, she gave up giving up childbirth directly, giving all her maternal love to this child who was extremely thin at the beginning.
And the Pope saw the intimacy of the two women, and Victor's half-truth, and he panicked.
He really panicked.
After all, being beaten on the ground by his wife, or ex-wife, is not a nice thing.
Especially if you can't fight back, that's the deadliest.
