Chapter 11: Dorothy

Perhaps in this world, there are geniuses who can wear a bulky old-fashioned individual soldier and hold a steam chainsaw that can't turn quickly. He can rely on a variety of dazzling operations, with a rag goods, to trample on such an advanced individual soldier as the "tide hunting" model, to win the attention of the world.

But that person is definitely not Li Yan.

The fact is that as soon as the conference began, this single soldier who had fought bravely with wild boars all his life since its birth, and whose armor was covered with mud marks, was hit by a grenade and scrapped.

Outside the arena, Li Yan hugged his shoulders and looked at the sturdy silver soldier.

This individual soldier is also a self-built model, with each component being built separately, power gauntlets, a pair of legging armor shoes, and four separate small power engines. Three explosive grenades hung from the shoulders and waist, and the steam box on the back had four metal handles protruding, presumably some other firing weapon.

The joint structure of the elbow and knee exposes the hole tube, there are small strands of steam spewed out, the ring-shaped armor piece bites and scales, even if the amplitude of the movement is not restricted by the armor, the Baotou-style knight's helmet, the iron net covers the eyes, but judging from the height of the armor, its owner should be nearly one meter eight tall.

Bang!

Relying on the power steam to stay in the air for a short time, the silver single soldier crossed the aftermath of the explosion, the heavy knight gun supported by both hands penetrated a five-meter-high "Tide Hunting" model, and pulled out two net shooters from the chassis behind him, reflexively fired, and the net Soro poured down two single soldiers, followed by pulling out a long knife from the knight's gun embedded in the enemy's waist, the lower leg bow jumped high, a backflip avoided the blacksmith Michael's Passion, and the landing long knife was fiercely inserted into the engine chassis of the "Passion".

Michael pushed the joystick hard, but the Passion collapsed, and smoke billowed from the chassis.

In the blink of an eye, several seeded players have been swept away by the silver soldiers.

Li Yan saw all this in his eyes, and thought in his heart: "The background of the Giant's Lake is a hundred years ago, and now San Francisco's steam guard should be more advanced. ”

He pulled out the card and there were already three short sentences on it.

"Chinese apprentices in watch shops", "steam workers", "steam conference eliminators".

According to the development of the story, the subsequent story has nothing to do with Li Yan.

Suddenly, the audience erupted in cheers, and it turned out that the silver soldier had defeated all his opponents and became the final winner of the steam conference.

The guards carried away the wounded warriors and the damaged steam guard, and the court minister was relieved: "Even if it is a loser, the king will choose the best warriors from among them to join the winner of the assembly against the Cyclops." ”

"Come on, you can't marry the princess, the ghost will provoke the cyclops, let that silver-armored boy go to death by himself!"

The defeated Saint-Yves muttered under his breath, and the enthusiasm of the others was not high.

To the sound of drums, the king himself came to the silver soldiers.

"Warrior, you have defeated all the participants, now take off your mask and let the people of the whole country see the true face of the man who will cut off the head of the cyclops."

"As you wish, my father."

The king opened his mouth in surprise at the familiar voice.

The silver soldier took off his mask, his slanted eyebrows, clear eyes, a high nose, and flaming lips tightly pursed.

In the midst of the nearby exclamations, she simply removed her armor, revealing her white neck and a corseted cotton coat, and her long rose-red hair poured down like a cascade......

Act I, end.

Li Yan's perspective suddenly appeared these five words, and he blinked, and thunderous applause and cheers suddenly sounded in his ears.

The limbless disabled chant on the stage had long since disappeared, and the crimson curtain had fallen, but the cheers were still long.

"She's so pretty."

A man sighed.

"Mom, did Dorothy really wear steam and defeat a giant alone?"

A little girl with a woolen hat and a porcelain doll-like birth tugged at her parents' clothes.

“……”

Li Yan looked left and right, and the surrounding audience was discussing the drama with red faces, these faces Li Yan was very familiar with, including the palace ministers, the people who were heckling, the guards, and even the owner of the weapon shop who lent him individual equipment.

The enthusiastic appearance of these people made Li Yan unable to distinguish for a while, dreaming of himself or them.

"I must admit, Lord Mayor, this is the greatest show I've ever seen, I was born in a fairy tale, how did they do it?"

Saint-Yves gave Mayor Michael a thumbs up: "Can I have the pleasure of meeting this Miss Dorothy?" ”

Michael's eyes were also full of brilliance: "As is customary, after the performance, Dorothy will change her clothes and come out to meet her audience." ”

"It's coming, it's coming."

I don't know who is sharp-eyed, I saw the curtain move, and after a while, the curtain opened, wearing a black evening dress, rose-red hair coiled in curls, and a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to speak, Dorothy was surrounded by a group of actors and saluted the audience.

Mayor Michael was invited to the stage by the play, and after he said a few official speeches, he made a joke: "If I were dozens of years younger, I would rather give up entering the political arena than pursue this beautiful kaolin flower." ”

Dorothy playfully replied, "Lady Jessica was a famous beauty when she was young, and I don't have the confidence to compete with her. ”

Michael waved his hand in frustration: "Come on, when she was thirty years old, she could eat more than one in one meal." ”

In the midst of laughter, someone boldly asked, "Dorothy, what will happen to the rest of the story?" ”

"Maybe that's up to you, my sir."

The person who asked the question was stared directly by Dorothy as if he had been hit by a bullet, and when he heard the rhetoric of "my husband", he couldn't breathe with excitement.

"Today is just the first act of the opening, and everyone is welcome to come back tomorrow night to see our play."

There was another round of applause.

Dorothy smiled and narrowed her eyes, her charming features making people unconsciously indulge in them.

In a warm atmosphere, a tall and thin figure scratched his head and left silently.

The night in San Francisco is still very charming, surrounded by airships on the tower of Eros in the distance, there is a fireworks display in the square, and a big-headed machine that walks on wheels sends a newspaper to Li Yan's hand, which reads:

A few days ago, the National Assembly formally accepted the motion of "revising the treaty related to the Treaty of Berlin Geim" signed with the Qing government, put forward by Kony, a representative of the Workers' Party. The final decision will be announced on the 15th. ”
