Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Although it was a lame joke mocking her father, she didn't care at all now.

You were almost there! How could you fall down like that?!

An Ran looked at Olina, who had curled up in a ball, and felt a little helpless. In order to avoid others knowing that she could see Olina's condition, An Ran decided to tell another adapted bear joke.

"Then let me tell you another lame joke, Your Highness: An old man was strolling leisurely on the sidewalk..."

After delaying for nearly a minute, Anran finally withdrew her hand from the wall with satisfaction.

enough.

Although it's not yet thorough enough, we've at least got a good grasp of the inside and outside.

Of course, this doesn't refer to Orina's body. An Ran has no such perverted interest. Just now, her main gaze followed the Ether Domain and roughly figured out the structure of the Holy Prison's core.

The reason he kept teasing Olina was simply to cover his tracks.

Anran was quite certain that members of the Royal Knights were monitoring the area.

If she kept sticking to the wall in that strange posture, she would definitely arouse suspicion from those watching her. But if she kept talking to Olina while doing that, it would be much more harmonious, and their attention would always be drawn to her.

So, An Ran isn't really bad at singing. If she weren't multitasking, how could her singing sound like she's making noise?

Whether you believe it or not, Anran herself believes it.

The Royal Knights indeed failed to detect anything unusual about An Ran, all thanks to the decline of the Mechanicus.

For nearly six hundred years, the Mechanical Church has not produced a single Grandmaster, and has even lost most of its technical blueprints. As a result, although the Royal Knights know that the Ether Mechanical Technology is special, they do not know exactly what makes it special.

After all, the strength shown by the Mechanical Church was simply not enough.

"vegetable!"

"I don't see how much better they are than ordinary mechanics."

"It is an exploration of new energy sources. The power of ether can greatly improve energy utilization efficiency."

"But their development costs are too high."

Even the members of the Mechanicus couldn't understand the nature of the power of ether, let alone the Royal Knights, who were laymen in this field.

As the only Grandmaster-level Ether Mechanic in six hundred years, Anran is definitely special.

"It seems that Her Highness the First Princess didn't really like my jokes. I thought they were quite funny."

Based on the information returned by the mimicry detection, Anran found four different surveillance and defense systems near the core.

There were also some forces she couldn't analyze, which were probably surveillance technologies from another power system.

The Royal Knights did not let their guard down towards her.

Or rather, they never relaxed their vigilance against the Holy Prison.

The Holy Prison was established with the founding of the Royal Knights. It has weathered a thousand years of storms and undergone countless reforms and renovations. Its infamous reputation is well-deserved.

Even if they escape, they will eventually be caught and brought back.

It also left behind the legend that no one survived in the central courtyard.

[The space is restricted, making it impossible to locate within it, thus preventing spatial jumps; it's very stable.]

Anran played with her hair by twirling it with her fingers.

If you rush into a leapfrog development, you could easily fall into a "leapfrog trap."

The so-called jump trap means that no matter how you travel through space, you will eventually arrive at the same place.

Perhaps it's stagnation, or perhaps it's a dead end, like in the interstellar storm of Hidden Sands, or Ronald's office.

Setting up such a trap is far simpler than sealing off a large area of ​​space.

Even for a master of spatial abilities, locking down every blind spot in space is not an easy task.

However, they were unaware that I could directly enter hyperspace.

This is a power from the void; for the Royal Knights, this is beyond their capabilities.

For Anran, everything was moving in a positive direction.

Fortunately, she made a lot of efforts beforehand, otherwise she would probably have been arrested by now.

In that case, she would have no choice but to obediently wait for the Holy Judgment to arrive, becoming a pawn of the Royal Knights, and then turning into the version's big boss.

Now, I've gone into hiding and can quietly wait for news from Ella.

Once Ella advances to Grandmaster, the situation will reverse again.

Time slips away quietly.

Three days after An Ran entered the Holy Prison, the official team released the final trailer for version 2.1 – The Tragedy of Chaos.

Version 2.1 begins with a massive artificial structure suspended in space.

Rebels, enemy nations, demons, insectoids, and the dark shadows lurking beneath the curtain all take to the stage and begin their spectacular performance, until a sword appears in the sky.

The game officially launched version 2.1 on April 3rd.
