The Mecha Contest was held in Asgar City, the far northwest of the Americas, a city with a small history and a dramatic relationship between the United States and Russia.

Dozens of countries, led by China, the United States and Russia, jointly financed the construction of one of the most spectacular arenas in human history in the northern ice and snow plains of Asgar City in two months.

When Qi Zeyue took Bai Qi and his party as a Huaxia delegation to fly above the huge arena in Asgar City, the grand scene on the ground surprised everyone.

The helicopter flew 150 meters above Asgar City, but even so, the large and small playing fields here are still far from the eye.

"That's got to be a lot of money." Qiu Ziang's eyes were almost attached to the window, and the scene in front of him could almost be regarded as the most shocking scene in his life so far.

"This can be regarded as the ninth, not the first miracle!" He couldn't help but exclaim.

"This scale is finalized according to the final coordination of various countries and the approval of the world joint department, as for how big it is," Qi Zeyue turned his head from the driver's seat and smiled mysteriously, "It's probably a little bigger than the entire city of Lin'an." ”

"But what surprises me even more than this is that Mr. Qi Zeyue, who is the director of the countermeasures bureau, can actually drive a high-level means of transportation such as a helicopter," Zhang Lei quipped on the side, "We people can actually let a dignified big man with the rank of lieutenant general in Huaxia be our pilot, this matter is exciting to think about." ”

Qi Zeyue took out a roll of cigars from his pocket. "Lao Zhang, you are poor me, is there a fire?"

"No, just hold it like that."

A crowd laughed.

"I was in a meeting with several countries about the scale of the construction of this arena, and I didn't think about it so much at first, and the three countries that we mainly led at the beginning just thought that building an arena similar to the scale of the Olympic stadium was almost enough." Qi Zeyue took the cigar off his mouth, reluctantly wiped it with a tissue, and then put it back in his pocket.

"Later, Dr. Chen Tian proposed it at the meeting," he remembered the scene at that time, "when he first proposed to make such a big project, he startled all the representatives of all the countries present, and this was not the end, and the doctor then directly asked his assistant to bring up the sketch of the construction of the arena." ”

"He had already arranged this for a long time, even before we proposed to do this kind of world-wide mecha competition. I have to say that the doctor is really a genius, every detail in every place on that drawing, he was accurate, just to explain to all the representatives present for more than ten hours. ”

"And then?" Someone asked.

"Later, I thought it was feasible, and everyone naturally voted to approve it, mainly because the prestige of the doctor is relatively large, and everyone trusts him, and at the beginning I felt that such a large-scale arena could not be built in two months, or the specific advice given by the doctor at the end."

"So what is the doctor's opinion, such a big arena actually took only two months to complete." Yuwen Tuo couldn't help but be amazed.

"What's the opinion," Qi Zeyue looked at the landing field below, there were already people waiting for the arrival of the Huaxia delegation, "You go and ask Dr. Chen Tian yourself." ”

After circling in the air for a few times, the helicopter slowly landed on the landing field.

As soon as the cabin door opened, an American officer standing in front of him saluted Qi Zeyue and the others.

"Friends of the Chinese delegation, welcome to your arrival." He spoke Chinese fluently.

Qiu Ziang, who was the first to stand at the door of the cabin, obviously didn't expect this situation, and was stunned for a while, until Yuwen Tuo pushed his whole person down. "What are you doing at the door, don't get in the way of the people behind."

Qi Zeyue was the last to step off the plane, and the officer took the initiative to salute Qi Zeyue. "Lieutenant General Qi Zeyue."

Qi Zeyue gently lowered his saluting hand and held it. "Hello, hello." His tone was very cordial, and the officer was a little flattered.

"General, I have been ordered by my superiors to come to greet the Huaxia delegation," the American officer hesitated for a moment, "General, do I want to take you to visit the entire mecha city first?" ”

Mecha City is the name of this sprawling arena.

"Visit," Qi Zeyue looked up at the sky, "No, no, it's not early, let's go back and rest first, you can take us to our accommodation first, as for visiting or something, let's talk about it tomorrow when we have time." ”

"Yes!"

Qi Zeyue grabbed the hand of the American officer who was about to salute. "Don't be so polite, everyone is their own people." He smiled.

The gaps between the huge playing fields became the city's thoroughfares, and in addition to the various military vehicles on the roads and the comings and goings of army soldiers and officers, they could also see many people in civilian clothes, who looked like local people.

"These are the people who came to visit this mecha competition. from all over the world. Qi Zeyue said in the direction where Bai Qi's eyes looked over.

"The entire competition process of this mecha competition will be open to the world, mainly through television and various news platforms and other media publicity, as for the location of onlookers in the mecha city, it will be randomly screened by the world joint department around the world, and 200,000 spectators will be selected to come here."

"These people are really lucky." Yun Meng saw a gorgeously dressed lady outside, leaning down to sort out the clothes for her child.

"Yes, it's almost a trip to Mecha City, and all kinds of expenses are funded by the World Joint Department, which means that the whole process is free."

"This should be the first time that such a black body weapon as a mecha has carried out such a transparent propaganda to the people of the world on such a large scale. In the past, although the people of various countries knew about mechas, they were only limited to some information about mechas released by various governments, and there were very few people who had actually seen mecha deities with their own eyes. Qi Zeyue sat in the passenger seat, the car gradually drove to the city center of the mecha city, the people here suddenly became more and more, the crowd was bustling, noisy and noisy, a vibrant atmosphere, people here came from all over the world, but here, they were cordially like good friends who had known each other for a long time, everyone gathered together in twos and threes, sitting at the small table at the door of some shops, chatting and talking freely with each other.

"That's good." Yuwen Tuo recalled the dozens of battles he had fought with the infected before, and looked at the scene of the city in front of him, and he thought for a long time and couldn't think of any suitable words to describe his current mood.

"That's for sure," Qiu Ziang interjected on the side, "Mecha City is not permanently open, such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, these people are afraid that this is the only time in their lives." Isn't it, Director? ”

Qi Zeyue nodded. "Pretty much it, what is the specific opening authority of Mecha City after the end of the Mecha Competition, several major lead countries are still negotiating with the World Joint Department, and it is not ruled out that it may be temporarily closed to the outside world after the end of the competition."

The accommodation of the delegations is arranged in a field near the southern suburbs of Mecha City, which was specially prepared for future competitors when it was built.

In front of the palace, a huge fountain gushes with golden lights. The palace is brightly lit and a magnificent sight.

"Oh my God," Yuwen Tuo almost stunned, "I never thought I would be able to live in such a place." ”

"This is to show the world the respect that countries have for these mecha controllers who have been fighting on the front lines of the infected for many years." The American officer who led the way on the side smiled. "The palace is built by Dr. Chen Tian from some famous palace buildings in various countries, and the main reference object is the place where the leaders of some of the more famous countries in the world live, such as the Forbidden City, Buckingham Palace, White House and other buildings."

Not far away, more than a dozen military vehicles slowly parked in the parking lot, the doors opened, and a group of officers dressed as Russian soldiers walked down, who saw Bai Qi and others and recognized them as members of the Huaxia delegation.

They stepped forward, led by a large young officer, who saluted Qi Zeyue.

"General Qi."

Qi Zeyue smiled and returned the salute. "Let me introduce you, these are mecha controllers from Huaxia."

Bai Qi hurriedly stretched out his hand. "Hello, my name is Bai Qi."

Several others also stretched out their hands and saluted the mech controllers who had come up to the Russian delegation.

Qi Zeyue noticed that this time, the Russian delegation only came with eight mecha controllers.

"Ivan, what about the other two, didn't they come this time?"

Ivanovich looked back. "Oh, the two of them are here, but they have temporarily separated from the team, saying that they are going to enjoy the scenery of Mecha City." He smiled sheepishly

Laugh.

Bai Qi saw that he also had blue pupils like Yunmeng, but the color looked darker, not as clear as Yunmeng's pupils.

Ivanovich turned his gaze to Bai Qi.

"Captain Bai, I have admired the name for a long time, and I look forward to the showdown with you." Ivanovic smiled politely.

Bai Qi smiled back modestly. "Compared to Mr. Ivan, I'm still a little worse."

Qiu Ziang's expression behind him suddenly became extremely surprised.

"Ivan, Ivanovich? He's that Ivanovic? ”
