"Ah, I didn't expect there to be a lot of ancient books here!"

The huge training ground is not at all visible at the moment as a place where students practice and fight, and the neon lights and festive celebrations are projected and suspended everywhere, as well as men and women in different ancient costumes, making the entire mechanical playground look as lively as a central square.

"Look at Alan, there's a Linpeng bookstore over there!" The girl with the big-rimmed glasses screamed and pulled the reluctant Alan to a makeshift mechanical shed.

Unlike the large number of high-tech machinery temporary shops around it, this temporary bookstore looks a little more retro, I don't know if it is real rotten wood with inexplicable small sculptures built around it, and fluorescent colored lights are also connected by very retro long wires.

"I really don't know what's so good about books...... It's expensive and doesn't have an electronic panel......" Alan muttered quietly, reluctantly following Irene to the shelf.

"The Origin of the Moon Tide Day! And the Secret Archive! I've been looking for a hard copy of this book! Irene went against the usual quiet before, excitedly pointed to the hardcover book that was a little yellowed and discolored, and said excitedly at Allen.

"Okay, okay...... Didn't you see that thing many times when you were a kid......"

I remember when I was a kid, my mom used to tell me a bedtime story......

For some reason, the thought of this Alan makes me even more reluctant to see books......

"Welcome...... What do you want to buy, Miss? ”

Contrary to the retro look of the bookstore shed, the owner turned out to be a man with a messy beard and an old-fashioned welder's face armor.

"Uh...... Hello...... I want this book "The Origin of the Moon Tide Day...... How much does it cost? ”

Irene looked at the old man who looked like a mechanic in front of her with some confusion, and said with some surprise.

The visor was pulled back, revealing Old Matt's aged face, and he said with a grin: "Ah, it's not expensive, it's not expensive, a thousand detcoins is enough......"

"Wow old man, you're robbing money, aren't you?"

When Alan heard this, he immediately became excited, and slapped it on a retro wooden table in front of him, and some big hands slammed the whole table into a creak.

"Ouch ouch, tap! Do you know how expensive this table is? Matt rushed to the wooden table with a lunge, startling Alan.

"These are antiques! Only those who really know how to know their value know their value! What do you know, hairy boy! Go and go! ”

The old man made a look of laziness to pay attention to him, and waved his hand like a fly.

"Uh......" Alan suddenly became a little overwhelmed. After all, judging from some faint patterns on the wooden table, this table must be very old...... Right?

"I'm sorry, old man, but my classmate is more anxious...... What era is this book from? ”

"Huh?"

Matt was stunned.

What age? How do I know, I can't say that I actually copied it myself by finding some old paper...... However, this book cover is a real antiquity, which is not blown or black, and it has a history of 300 years!

"Uh...... Should be...... Should be...... Maybe it's been a few hundred years...... Haha......" Old Matt said hesitantly as he touched his messy gray hair and looked at the sky.

"Hundreds of years?!" Irene suddenly widened her eyes, "That's really a great ancient book!" You must know that the origin of the moon tide day is about five or six hundred years of history! ”

"Uh...... yes, haha......" Matt smiled exaggeratedly, and quickly asked, "If you like it, buy it, after all, there are really not many young people who like this kind of thing these days, haha......"

Alan looked at this old man with some suspicion, and always felt that this guy was a little weird......

With that in mind, he walked over to the wooden table and knocked on it.

Is this an antiquity?

"Can I take a look first?" Irene asked.

"Please." Matt nodded.

Although it's just a thing that I dip casually, it's also a piece of rotten paper, although the words can't be said to be good-looking, but it's absolutely antique!

Irene looked at the book with a glittering eye, extremely focused.

"Wow...... Is it actually such a font, which looks like a popular calligraphy in the 17th century......

Matt nearly choked on his saliva and coughed repeatedly.

"Are you alright, old man?" Alan looked at Matt with wide eyes.

"It's alright...... All right...... When people get old, there are always some problems with their bodies...... How about a girl, do you want to buy it? ”

Irene snapped the book together and said happily, "A thousand Detcoins, yes?" ”

"Yes, yes." Matt said quickly, showing his transfer ID.

The girl directly crossed a thousand yuan, holding the book and looking like she couldn't put it down.

"Alan? What are you still doing here? ”

At this moment, a flirtatious voice came from the side.

"Little jute?" Alan's brow furrowed.

The blonde boy with a little freckles on his face walked over, and it was the same student who had been competing with Momothy earlier.

"I said, don't you know? Halfway through the festival, Momothy's special show is about to begin. ”

"Special program?" Alan was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, "You mean...... Momo vs. Ralph that guy? ”

"yes, now the whole class has heard about it and rushed over. I heard that Momona seems to have been a bit popular on the intranet recently...... Hmph, I don't know if it's true...... No matter, let's go over first, and you'll come by yourself later. I'm going to see if that kid blows so badly......"

After saying that, the blonde boy left with a few younger brothers, and Ireen also walked over with a book: "What's the matter, Alan?" ”

"Momo's game is about to start, let's go over and take a look."

"Are you going to start? Let's get over there. ”

As if because she had bought something she liked, Irene looked a little more open than usual at the moment, grabbed Allen's hand and ran towards the center.

Old Matt, who was laughing happily over there, looked at the extra thousand Detcoins in his account, as if he heard something, and looked in the direction of the two: "I seem to have heard the name of that kid Momoxi?" Regardless of it, hurry up and take advantage of the flow of people to make some money...... Hey, little sister over there! Do you want to buy antiques~"

……

In the maintenance room, Momothy is doing the last debugging of the [Waterfall].

Ralph came over and said defiantly, "Boy, are you still struggling?" ”

Momothy ignored him and removed an anomalous module from the camera panel.

Because it was a large stage for performances, although the venue was spacious enough, there was no suitable place for armor finishing, so the two of them could only squeeze into the space vacated at the rear to adjust the armor.

"However, it seems that you have done a lot of homework to deal with me." Ralph patted the gaps in the waterfall's strange installations, and some gear-like objects could be faintly seen inside, "But these are all in vain, you can never imagine the shame you brought me that day." ”

When Ralph said this, he was extremely calm, a far cry from the roar of the game.

"This time, you don't want to make any small moves."

"Got it." Mo Mo didn't bother to pay attention to him, and after finishing the last debugging job, he put away the transparent screen in front of him and turned around.

On the other side stood a massive armored armour, with its massive fists and brown and black exterior that reminded Momothy of an animal called a brown bear.

"Don't think that you can win me with the skill of drawing the sword, any skill is just an excuse, only strength is the most powerful answer. Right in front of the whole campus, I'm going to beat you gorgeously, no, crush you. ”

Momothy glanced at him.

"Got it."

"Hmph." Seeing that he was unresponsive, Ralph snorted heavily and walked to his armor.

In Momo's mind, there was a constant sound of night barbell-like laughter.

"Hahaha...... This little kid is going to laugh at me, what are you pretending, boy, you can go up and beat him up later! ”

"Brother Night...... You're not going to......"

"What a song at night, call the teacher!"

"Got it...... Master Craftsman ......"

The corners of Momothy's mouth twitched, and he lay down in armor, his body wrapped in armor, and the darkness lit up with the faint light of a virtual panel.

……

"Thank you to the Class of 2086 for bringing us a wonderful mechanical dance performance...... It's really surprising that we, who have been dealing with robots for many years, have seen real robot "people" today. ”

The little joke made some laughter come from below.

"So one of the later programs...... To be honest, I don't really agree with the behavior of the cadets fighting and betting, but if the two excellent students in the first year can bring us a wonderful battle......

On the makeshift stepped ring seat, the blonde man looked at the indicator in his hand with a sinister smile, and the dense numbers on it were constantly beating.

"Second Shock...... I must be the one who started ......"

"It's not close...... It's not ......."

Below, with a soft smile, Casey invited a handsome blonde man into his seat, and not far away Morrison stared at the two with ugly faces, and two students were constantly persuading him to something.

"Mr. Gerdo, it's a pleasure for you to be here for tonight's celebration."

"How can I not come when a beautiful woman meets?" Jerdo leaned over slightly, but was skillfully dodged by Casey, and Morrison, who was secretly observing, was even more angry when he saw this scene, and almost jumped up from his seat and rushed over to kill the little white face.

"Thank you for being there in time...... So, you must have brought what I needed, right? ”

"Of course, soaked in the blood of a hundred descendants of colonists...... The ......man smiled, and the subordinate behind him handed over a small metal box and delivered it to Casey through the man's hand.

Casey opened the box, and a decaying wooden object was lying quietly in a transparent jar of special material, soaked in blue liquid.

"Actually, this kind of request makes me feel like you're a bit like those witches in the Middle Ages...... But it makes me even more curious about you, beautiful Miss Casey. A charming smile appeared on the man's face, "But honestly, this thing is almost soaked in the blood." ”

"I'm grateful for that." Casey put away the box, "Your reward will be delivered." ”

"Sure, but you know, that's not always what I've been looking for, is it......" The man's face drew closer, and Casey smiled, not dodging.

"Enough!"

An angry roar was heard from behind, and a figure rushed through the seat towards the two of them......

……

The stage of the mechanical dance performance is slowly lowered, and the whole venue is once again wide and huge - some performances will need to shrink the venue, and in order to achieve the performance effect, the huge venue will be separated from the center of a circular stage, and the steps will rise, leaving only enough space for the performance.

The shouts of the surrounding spectators were heard, and two tall robotic figures stepped out of the cabins on either side.

"The special program of this celebration...... So the one on the left is ...... A 2088 mechanical engineering student, and also ranked 24th in the same class...... Ralph, I'm sorry the system is a little short-circuited, I didn't find where your last name is......" Witt, the narrator robot, said cheaply, and there was a burst of laughter from below.

Ralph ignored it, and the long flames of the huge armored fists struck twice, sending out golden sparks.

"So there's a fantastic player on the other side...... I believe that the teachers and students of this college have already seen the game that only the lucky ones can have...... He is, Momothy Krause! That's right, I know this guy's surname very well, and this time he also changed to a different weapon...... I just don't know if he'll be more ...... like the last time he appeared Weak? ”

There was laughter in the audience again, and the scene of Momothy raising her slender arms as she fought Ralph was still fresh in their minds.

Mo Moxi ignored the audience, the lamp body on the armor, including the striped eyes, suddenly lit up, and the body made a posture of the Convergence Technique, and the right hand slashed out the technology knife from his waist with a spark, followed by a dazzling and rapid cut, and several slashing arcs intertwined an orange network in front of him, thinking fiercely about the side of the slash, the most violent knife light slashed through the orange network. Raising the scabbard, all the sword light shattered into the air like glass and disappeared into the air with a crisp sound of sheathing from fast to slow.

There was a sudden exclamation from the audience, and the robot Witt also spun around in the sky, roaring in surprise: "Wow, what a gorgeous swordsmanship!" Dazzling and sharp! It seems that today's show will be even more exciting than the championship match at the end of the school year! Let's wait and see! ”

A blue barrier rises over the circular field, which then becomes transparent, and a short strip of light lights lights light up in the field, illuminating the entire field brightly.

Countless laser fireworks erupted around the two of them, in the middle, and erupted everywhere, the enthusiasm of the audience was ignited instantly, and a high-pitched shout was issued, and the moment the fireworks disappeared, the feet of the two exploded at the same time, and they rushed towards each other!

"Lie down for me!"

Ralph roared, the sound through the visor filled with the cacophony of electronics, and the steel fist erupted with a long burst of impulsive flames that crashed into Momothy.

"Rude and weak little big man."

In his mind, Night sneered, and at the same time, Momothy's feet were short, his body instantly slid down, and countless sparks rubbed out on the heels of the popping gears, and quickly turned behind Ralph.

The punch slammed into a small crack in the ground, and behind Ralph, Momothy's eyes lit up with a high orange light, his body bent sharply, the scabbard broke through the back line and raised high, and he suddenly pulled the trigger of his left hand.

"Smack!"

There was a sound of explosion that was neither high nor low, and the sparks that pulled out the star shattering explosion point on the blade sparked out, and a trembling sound came from the blade, lighting up an orange arc, and the mechanical handle was gently picked up by Mo Momoxie in his hand, and the fierce knife light burst out in his hand instantly, and a long orange light that split half of the area instantly lit up in the entire field, and the orange oblique line slashed at the armor of the opponent's back, rubbing out bursting sparks!

Ralph's heart sank, and a long burst of energy flames erupted from his feet, pushing his entire huge body far ahead, drawing out dots of stars under his feet, and stopping after a sharp turn.

Under the visor, dense beads of sweat flowed down his forehead in this short moment.

The audience was in an uproar.

Ralph stood still, looking quickly behind him.

A deep cut completely destroyed the outer armor and inner armor in that place, and it was only a little short of cutting through his waist......

Leaning forward extremely, the blade was held high in the air by a strange mechanical arm at its side, making a slight tremble, and the orange electric light flowed through the blade, and the light on the blade was as dazzling as starlight in the darkness.

Mo Moxi stood up straight, the orange sword light skillfully swung in his hand, leaning down to his side.

A mechanical sound muffled by the visor clearly reached Ralph's ears.

"How?"
