Chapter 263 Road Test
After arranging the promotion of the magic car, Xia Lin drove the Moju No. [-] to prepare for a road test to see how the Moju No. [-] is performing on the roads of the current imperial capital, and by the way, prepare for the day after tomorrow's headlines.

The destination is Dragon's Rest Palace, and Xia Lin is going to discuss with Queen Dorothea a very important matter for the development of the magic motive.

So under the surprised eyes of the people in the new area, a strange vehicle with a strange shape that can move on its own without a horse got on the road and drove towards the city of Helgana. Because the road conditions in the new area are not good, there are still many places They were all in the early stage of repair and leveling work, and Xia Lin only dared to drive the Moju No. [-] to the level of fifteen yards.

The performance of the MD1.4.2 magic engine used on the Magic Horse No. [-] is not good. In order to reduce the weight consumption of the body, and the glass team can't produce a large piece of flat glass suitable for the window, Xia Lin adopted a convertible design. Seeing that this weird "carriage" was driven by someone, many young children on the side of the road were attracted by the Magic Horse No. [-] and chased after it.

From time to time, bold children took advantage of Xia Lin's gaze to look away, and stretched out their dirty little hands to leave fingerprints on the shell of the Magic Horse No. [-], which made Xia Lin feel helpless.However, the curious actions of these children had no effect on Xia Lin, so he just let them go.

After driving in the new area for a while, Xia Lin soon came to the junction of the new area and the west area. The Moju No. [-] uses solid rubber tires, and there is not much shock-absorbing suspension design. The shock-absorbing performance is not good. Xia Lin After driving for such a distance, I felt that if I hadn't placed a soft cotton pad on the seat, I'm afraid even my butt would have been bumped.

But in general, rubber tires are always much better than wooden tires. Compared with riding in a carriage in this world, the experience of driving the Magic Horse One is actually better.

"Pay attention to the design of the shock absorption system, and leave the research in this area to Master Holkin!"

After stopping the Magic Horse No. [-] in a remote open space, Xia Lin took out his small notebook and wrote down the question, and then started the car again.

After entering the West District, the road conditions improved a little bit, and there were no people on the roads in the West District. Xia Lin was finally able to drive the Moju No. [-] to the highest speed. Occasionally, passers-by watched Xia Lin "speeding like lightning" on the road. Driving past, they all cast curious and surprised eyes.

Looking at the reactions of these people, Xia Lin felt rather interesting, and rang the car bell a few times, and the car bell of "Dinglingling~dinglingling~" made more people discover this strange-shaped "carriage".

A coachman driving a carriage full of goods in front of Xia Lin followed the voice and looked back, his eyes widened suddenly.

The Magic Horse No. [-], which was advancing at full speed, quickly overtook the fully loaded carriage. The strange appearance of the Magic Horse No. [-] scared the two naive horses pulling the cart to the side of the road. Skillfully calmed them down.

Stepping into the bustling streets of the Central District, the appearance of Moju No. [-] is even more eye-catching. The almost two-meter-wide Moju No. [-] row occupies a lot of space on the road. Xia Lin also slowed down again. The sound of people's close conversations is also clearer.

"Hey! Look at that carriage, how can it go without a horse?"

"Don't think about it, haven't you seen that the coachman is wearing a mage's robe? It must be the magic of the mysterious master mage!"

"So that's what you said, it makes sense! But why did Master Mage still act as a coachman himself?"

"Who knows? Can you still control the thoughts of Master Mage?"

Xia Lin felt a little helpless when he heard the conversation of those passers-by, but there was nothing wrong with their guess. Although the principle of the magic motor was borrowed from various motors in the previous life, it was still magic like spinning at work. .

"City guards pass! Idlers make way!"

"That strange carriage in front, stop quickly and accept our inspection!"

Such a strange-looking "carriage" suddenly appeared on the road of the imperial capital, which naturally attracted the attention of some interested people. Horace Carey, the captain of the city guard, was one of them. Regarding the replacement, during this period of time, the city guards were tense in their hearts, and they were always on the lookout for possible signs.

Now that he saw this strange-looking "carriage", in order to prevent possible hidden dangers, Horace immediately led two members of the patrol team through the crowd and stood in front of the Magic Horse One.

"City guard? Is there anything you want to do to stop me?"

Xia Lin didn't expect the city guards to stop his Magic Horse No. [-], and stepped on the brake unexpectedly, stopped the car and leaned on the door to ask the leader, Horace.

"It turned out to be a mage?"

Only then did Horace see Xia Lin's attire, and he probably understood the origin of this weird "carriage". He thought it must be something new made by these mages or alchemists with magic.

With a reasonable explanation in mind, Horace removed his left hand from the long sword scabbard at his waist, stepped forward and carefully looked at the strange-looking "carriage" for a while, and then said with apology:

"Your Excellency the mage, according to the order of Hisoka Gregg's brigade captain, our city guards must eliminate all potential threats in Helgana. We stopped you only because this strange carriage seemed to have the potential to harm other people. People have caused some danger, please wait here for a while, the mage of our city guard will come to check soon, I hope you don't mind our offense."

"Offending is out of the question, you are also responsible, but I am in a hurry to go to Dragon's Rest Palace, so I won't wait for your inspection. This is a token given to me by Her Majesty the Queen, you should know it?"

Xia Lin knew the reason why the city guards stopped her, but she didn't care too much, and took out a brooch from her sleeve pocket and said.This gold brooch is engraved with delicate star-blue patterns, and a sapphire the size of a pigeon egg is inlaid in the middle. Even ordinary people can see how expensive this brooch is.

"This badge... Could it be that you are..."

Horace didn't pay attention to the young mage at first, but after looking at the badge for a while, his face immediately changed, and his eyes wandered between the brooch and Xia Lin's young face in surprise.

"That's right, I'm Charlene Carr. This brooch is a token from Her Majesty Queen Dorothea. With this token as a guarantee, you should be able to trust me, right?"

Seeing that the captain of the city guard seemed to recognize the origin of the brooch and his identity, Xia Lin nodded and admitted.

"It turned out to be His Excellency, Viscount Xia Lin. The captain of Hisoka Brigade told us about you. If it weren't for your help, we might have fallen into the conspiracy of the conservatives. We have strengthened our security recently because you were assassinated before." I hope you can forgive our offense!"

Combining the face of the young man in front of him with the face of the young man in front of him, the image of Charlene Karl who had turned the tide, Horace hurriedly greeted him respectfully.

"No need to do that, you are just loyal to your duty, and I am not angry, but I have been delayed for a while, please get out of the way first!"

"Follow your will, Your Excellency Viscount Xia Lin!"

During Horace's respectful greeting, he didn't stop his hands. He waved his hands to let his two subordinates get out of the way, and then quickly added:
"Thank you for your understanding, then I wish you a smooth journey, Your Excellency Viscount Xia Lin!"

Xia Lin nodded. Just as he was about to start the Magic Horse No. [-] and was about to leave, he saw that the captain of the city guard was thinking about it, and asked another question by the way:
"By the way, what's your name?"

"Ho... Horace Carey."

When Horace heard Xia Lin's question, his heart suddenly jumped, and he thought, could it be that he was held hostage by the wise man of the alliance?He secretly groaned, but still obediently said his name.

"Horace Carey? I'll remember you."

Xia Lin had a pretty good impression of the captain of the city guard, and meeting him during the first road test of Moju No. [-] was considered a fate.

Looking at the dedicated city guard captain just now, Xia Lin suddenly thought that if the magic car is going to go on the road, at least a traffic police brigade and a department of the vehicle management office must be prepared, so he asked him by the way, if In the future, magic cars may be popularized. When these two departments are to be established, Xia Lin will probably recommend Horace to take up the relevant positions in the two departments.
