Chapter 23 match ends

However, just as Pachuli and Nero competed for the lead, the change finally happened.

The next lap is almost entirely a track composed of overpasses with various complex structures, which is much shorter than the route surrounding the entire "Tunggi City" in the first half. However, a much shorter distance does not mean that the time taken for a lap will definitely become shorter.

The locations of monitoring points are no longer arranged in ordinary clockwise or counterclockwise order, but are disrupted and arranged on various overpasses.

Moreover, if you go to the wrong monitoring point, you must start over from the first monitoring point.

As a result, the heroes who had not reacted all of a sudden were pitted by the game mode of the sudden change from a racing race to a curve race. They all went wrong once and discovered such a sudden and strange change.

Such changes have slightly closer the distance between the leading Pachuli and Nero, the lagging Akamiyan, Brenshild and Nanali.

The best driving route is not displayed on the light curtain on the car, and the AI ​​computing function cannot be used directly from the beginning. Therefore, the heroes have to find a more reasonable route in this dizzy urban transportation network. Otherwise, they may have gone too far than others.

"I finally got a chance~" Nanali, who was driving a black sports car, said with a smile when she saw this situation.

Then, the Mirage's shield system appeared again under the wheels of the black sports car. Then, under the support of the shield, the black sports car driven by Nanali gradually broke away from the ground.

"The line segment is the shortest distance between two points."

At this time, the black sports car that Nanali drove was no longer bound by the road and moved forward in the air. Suddenly, the distance between Pachuli and Nero was shortened.

"This method is not difficult to imagine..." Pachuli, who was driving a purple sports car in the air, said, "Emerald Megalith (Emerald Megalith) can also achieve similar effects... But, I can't use B-level magic power to exert force and maintain the Emerald Megalith... It's a pity..."

On the other side, inside the red sports car driven by Nero.

"What a great treasure, rider. I want to see the true face of your treasure."

－－－－－－－－－－－－－

"That effect should be the effect of Nanali's little sister's treasure? If it is a kind of magic, the magic that can create such an effect should have more than so little magic power anyway." Alice said curiously, "However, I have never seen the true face of that treasure."

"It suddenly happened to us."

"Miss Nanali's rank is rider."

"The literal translation is 'cavalry'."

"The special skill of this rank is 'ride'."

“Generally speaking.”

“This word.”

"It's all considered 'ride' by magicians."

"but."

“This word.”

“At the same time.”

"'manipulate'."

"'drive'."

"The extended meaning of such a thing."

“Explain this way.”

"It should be able to explain Miss Nanali."

"Why can it be with such a body?"

“Super the rank of ‘rider’.”

"And we guess."

"Miss Nanali's treasure."

"It should be some kind of machine she had driven."

"Ye... It's a reasonable guess, Ellik." Uncle Armstrong nodded in agreement, "But even so, I'll still be curious... Yes... what her treasure looks like."

Uncle Armstrong recalled Nanali's actions over the past few days, and wanted to find clues that could guess her treasure from Nanali's actions.

"Well... Well... she is looking up all kinds of information about politics, economy, and technology every day..." Uncle Armstrong said intermittently, "Political and economic aspects should be the responsibility she should bear as the king... It should have nothing to do with the treasure... As for technology... The three most precious technologies on the earth, the space expansion system, the atmospheric control system and the crust control system, were disappointed after reading it, and seemed to have no way to use it... In addition, she seemed to have recorded the technology that can be used, and covered almost all aspects... Ah... By the way, when she saw the orbital space station and the spacecraft, she seemed to show some interest. Could it be that her treasure had a certain relationship with these things?"

“Too little information.”

“No more analysis and judgment can be made.”

"but."

"It shouldn't be a large equipment like orbital space stations and spacecraft."

"because."

"Miss Nanali said it."

“‘We don’t have any AI in there at all’.”

"so."

“Large equipment.”

"It's absolutely uncontrollable by one person."

"And for single use."

“A machinery that can be described as ‘manipulation’.”

"Because of the historical background of the 'big catastrophe'."

"For the continuation of race."

"The internal contradiction between humans becomes secondary contradiction."

"All humanity unites to fight the earth."

"It makes some of the technologies in our world not significantly different from those thousands of years ago."

"so."

“The lack of knowledge.”

"It also makes us think of Miss Nanali's treasure."

“No more speculation and judgment can be made.”

On the other side, on the field, Nanali was about to catch up with Nero.

－－－fate/staynight－－－

Finally, after two laps of tricks and constantly finding ways between overpasses, the track selection became normal again.

At this time, the purple sports car driven by Pachuli still ranked first due to the advantages created by the swamp and fog in the first half. However, there was only a slight gap between Nanali, who surpassed Nero in the two-lap overpass curve. Of course, Nero also relied on his excellent driving skills to bite Nanali.

As for Brenheld and Akami Homo, they were completely behind these three, gave up the game and returned to the commercial square in the center of "Tunggi City".

"I'm ugly. It seems that I'm not very suitable for this sport." Bren Hilde, who was wearing a pure white tight racing suit, said after getting off the car.

“It’s about participation.”

“Touch new things.”

“It will always be inspiring for people.”

The Elliks said.

"Master, and Madame Ellik, you're right. Everything here is very novel to me," said Brenheld. "Everything will give me some new inspiration."

On the other side, after getting off the car, Akamiyan rushed directly to the hot spring, as if she wanted to soak in the hot spring after sweating.

－－－fate/hollowataraxia－－－

On the field, the game has reached the final stage.

On the last lap, the track came to the ring road surrounding the "Tunggi City".

The roads on the ring road are very wide and flat, and there is no obstacle that can really prevent the heroes from increasing the speed of sports cars to the limit. The broad vision and thick roadbed also make the heroes have no useful way to hinder the speed of others.

So, at this time, there was only a slight gap between the three heroes who were still in the competition.

At this time, it is probably a competition of the "driving skills" of heroes.

However, although there is only a slight gap, Pachuli is still the first among the three heroes.

"Is it finally time to decide the outcome..." Nero murmured to himself, holding the steering wheel tightly.

The end point is right ahead, after an entrance and exit to enter and leave the expressway.

"It's still a little bit..."

"It's still a little bit..."

Nero looked at the road attentively and whispered.

"As long as the caster reacts at the most appropriate time, he cannot use that strange stone magic to stop me..."

"It's now!"

At this time, Nero once again used the magic of acceleration on his sports car. On the other hand, Nanali did the same thing as Nero - it seemed to be using the treasure that still did not reveal its true face to accelerate his sports car.
