Chapter 052: Alien Lady
It was still morning, and the Babylonian Floating Island faded into the night and woke up in the bright sunshine. Millions of nobles poured into the streets, occupying the main traffic arteries early on, so when Alan sat in an extended version of the magic speed car he had prepared for him, he could see through the window the pomp and circumstance of his first arrival on the floating island.
People cheered on both sides of the road, and two steam airships replayed Alan's best moments in the death ring above the city. Whenever the fire moon released by Eren against Anse is played, it will cause a burst of screams from the girl.
As the car drove up Golden Wing Avenue and headed for Dawn Square, tens of thousands of white doves were released. A flock of white birds burst into the blue sky, circled over the square, and then flew off to the rest of the floating island. As soon as the pigeons left, five frigates dragged various colors of smoke across the sky, staggered and rotated in the sky above the square, and made various thrilling flight maneuvers before they lined up in a line, soared straight into the sky, and disappeared above the clouds!
Following the sound of the band playing from the direction of the square, the passionate war song made people echo along. For a time, the music of Babylon shook the sky, and the atmosphere was enthusiastic.
Alan was secretly speechless, he never thought that the award ceremony of the winner of the death ring would be so grand. At this time, Tonisfu, who was sitting next to him, came over several pages: "Honey, you have 10 minutes to memorize the lines on it." It's all carefully designed by me for you, and it's sure to win the applause of the audience. ”
Tonisfu said confidently, Alan shook his head helplessly, picked up the lines and read them. Fortunately, he has an amazing memory, and he basically remembers it. In less than five minutes, he had memorized the words.
Dawn Square is a public area on Babylon and a landmark built to commemorate humanity's final victory in the Battle of Daybreak. In the center of the Dawn Square, the size of a gymnasium, are nine bronze pillars, each carved with the war deeds of the nine human heroes in the Battle of the Dawn, telling the epic past to future generations in the form of copper plate paintings.
There is also an opera house in the square, and the award ceremony takes place on the open-air stage of the opera house. The Magic Flying Car carried Alan and the others to the back of the theater, quietly entered the theater through the green passage, and then quietly came to the back of the open-air stage.
When the square's magic clock pointed to the eight o'clock mark, the band stopped playing, and a flamboyantly dressed abbot ran onto the open-air stage, immediately winning the cheers of the audience below.
"Ladies of Babylon, I love you! Of course, I also respect every man in this room. So don't worry, the previous sentence is just a joke, and the witty Baggins will never give you a chance to duel with me. The host used a witty opening remark to make the audience laugh a little before saying: "Everyone, I believe everyone is as excited as I am at the moment." Just last night, the 211th Death Stage quietly came to an end, and the winner of this contest was a very good teenager from the 13th District of the surface. ”
Speaking of this teenager, I believe everyone has a deep impression. When he first set foot in Babylon, we were amazed by his aristocratic temperament. And in the cruel game, he showed us more courage and wisdom! That's right, he's Allen! The host turned around sharply and waved his hand in the direction of the back/stage: "Now, let's cheer with the most enthusiasm and invite the winner of the new death ring, Mr. Allen!" ”
"Alan!"
"Alan!"
"Alan!"
In the square, the unanimous call of the audience sounded. Tonisf nudged Allen, "Go, baby, let them cheer for you!" ”
Alan took a deep breath and stepped out of the backstage and stepped onto the open-air stage in a battle-like mood. When he looked out from the stage, his eyes were filled with dense crowds, and the shocking scene made him speechless for a while. And on each side of the square there is a huge screen, in which Allen's figure clearly appears. When the camera zooms in and gives Alan a close-up of his face, many girls scream wildly at him.
Listening to the screams coming from the square, Tonisf closed his eyes in revulsion, as if it was him, not Allen, who was now warmly welcomed.
The host made a "quiet" gesture with his hand, and then called Alan to his side and said, "Alan, I heard that you had a chance to leave without participating in this cruel competition?" ”
"Yes?"
"Then you can sue me, why are you standing here?"
"Because ......" Allen's eyes flashed once again when his mother said goodbye: "Because, I want to get the opportunity to change my fate." That's how I have the strength to do something. Some, very important thing! ”
"It's an amazing determination."
Next, the host threw out some questions one after another, and Alan read from the script according to Tonisfu's lines. While reading the lines, Allen's mind had already flown to other places. It was nothing more than a show for him, and such a performance even disgusted him. But now he already knows that sometimes a wonderful performance can make him less resistance and more resources on the way forward.
So, he didn't mind suppressing his little disgust and cooperating with these people to act out the image they wanted to see.
After the audience erupted in cheers again and again, the award ceremony finally came to an end. Allen, who wins in the death ring, will receive a rich reward from the federal government. These include a set of magical weapons, a high-level physical enhancement potion, 200,000 federal coins, and the right of abode on the floating island. All the rewards are embodied in a small electronic magnetic card.
With this magnetic card, Alan can redeem his own rewards at any time.
After the award ceremony, there was a regular band performance accompanied by dancers, which once again brought the atmosphere to a climax. But at this time, there was nothing more for Alan on the stage. He put the magnetic card on his body, and when he stepped down with the host Baggins, the host, who seemed to be famous on Babylon, handed Allen a business card and asked him to come to his company if he was interested, and Baggins pointed out that Allen had the potential to become a superstar, which was the same as Tonisf.
It's just that Allen is not interested in being a screen star, so he put away his business card for less than 5 minutes, and threw it into the trash can in the theater casually.
"Mr. Allen."
As soon as he returned to the back/stage, Alste stopped him while he was talking to Tonisev. The Chancellor of the Exchequer walked over with a big belly, patted Allen on the shoulder enthusiastically and said, "Go, I'll take you to meet someone." ”
Alste led him through the stage and into the Grand Theater. Opening the door of the theater, it was dark inside, and the minister pushed Alan in with both hands. He smiled and closed the door, and darkness overwhelmed Allen.
After a brief period of darkness, a pillar of spotlight fell on the stage of the theater, followed by a second and a third...... A total of five beams of light descend onto the stage and eventually converge. So a figure appeared in the light, and the slender and familiar back made Allen's heart beat.
"Lucy?" He whispered.
The man moved, then slowly turned around. At this moment, it was like a galaxy twinkling, as if a magnificent nebula was blooming to Allen with the ultimate beauty. Lucy was dressed in a grand costume, and the golden Chang'an was tied to a crown adorned with many precious stones. The graceful curve of the white swan extends downwards to the sexy and seductive collarbone.
A necklace of gemstones in the shape of stars and crescents adorns the chest that is too empty. The proudly erected double-peaked breasts were half exposed, and a shallow furrow disappeared under the wrap-breasted long skirt. This robe is finely made, outlining the girl's graceful curves, and the large gorgeous skirt is spread behind her, like a peacock with the screen open.
The background color of the long skirt is silvery white, with pale gold curves outlining the bold and complex lines on it, forming a mysterious pattern. It looks like the starry sky of the Milky Way, and on it, it is dotted with large and small diamonds, and it is like a star shining under the light!
Even if Alan doesn't know the goods, he knows that this long dress alone must cost a lot of money.
Lucy tugged at the hem of her skirt and turned it slightly. The skirt is full of thousands of diamonds, like thousands of stars and fireflies, swaying and falling. The girl smiled lightly and said, "Is it good-looking?" ”
"Beautiful, I can barely recognize you." Alan nodded.
"That said, I don't think it's my style, but the teacher wants me to wear it, and I'm sick to death!" Lucy said with a grin, and in an instant the noble image collapsed, but it regained the familiar appearance of Allen.
Lucy jumped off the stage in a very unfigurative way, and at this moment, all the lights of the theater came on one by one, illuminating the room as bright as day. Lucy shook her head, reached out and took off the sumptuous tiara, letting her blonde hair spill like a stream of morning light. She shook the crown on her hand and said, "You don't know how heavy this thing is, and it's uncomfortable to wear it on your head." ”
Seeing her look of annoyance, Alan finally couldn't help but laugh.
This is the Lucy he knew, flying and jumping, like a July fire!
Lucy casually tossed the crown aside, walked up to Allen, and suddenly gave him a powerful hug. Allen's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and after a moment, he closed his eyes and hugged the slender body.
"Alan, actually...... I am not a human being of your earth. Lucy stretched out her hand and gently pulled her long hair around her ear, revealing ears that were sharper and thinner than humans, just like the legendary elves: "I am...... Adava Star People. ”
"It doesn't matter, I just need to know that you're Lucy anyway." Alan let go of her, took two steps back, and said seriously.
Lucy nodded vigorously: "So, you don't think I'm weird Luo?" ”
"You're weird indeed." Alan laughed, "However, it has nothing to do with your identity. ”
Lucy immediately exclaimed, "Then you are referring to my character!" ”
Immediately, she laughed herself. Lucy smiled before she said softly, "I'm leaving." ”
One sentence suddenly aroused a faint melancholy in Allen's heart.
