His eyes shone with golden light as he glanced at the young men and women in the field.
It's interesting. The students here are very positive. There are some negative ones occasionally, but generally speaking, they all have hopes and dreams. It seems that this Academy City is well managed.
"How do you say uncle?"
Xier came over and asked about the arrangements. Alex said, "Let's watch the game during the day, and then we can go shopping here later."
"I feel this place is quite interesting." Xier said, "However, beneath the glorious surface, there are some undercurrents surging."
Alex looked at Xier, who rubbed her nose and said, "I am the director after all, so I still have this sense of smell."
Xier pointed behind her, and Sebastian realized something. He frowned, picked up the cup, took a look at it, and began to arrange people to replace all the utensils in the VIP room.
"Sir, someone is going to collect some things." He came over and reported to Alex, "I have assigned someone to deal with the hotel's domestic waste."
The cups here are a little unusual. When Alex drinks water, the edge of the cup absorbs some of his saliva. The purpose is naturally to study Alex's relevant intelligence and biological information.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Rand, the venue was prepared by Academy City itself." Miss Lola hurriedly stepped forward to apologize and said, "We will investigate and give you an explanation.
It seems that there are always such people everywhere. Fortunately, my hair does not fall out. Alex smiled, shook his head, and said, "Don't take it personally. We can find out when the time comes."
There are still disadvantages to traveling in public. There are many people in the universe who admire Alex, and there are also many people who are spying on him.
"It looks like you won't be bored anymore, uncle." Xier said with a smile. She hoped to find some fun.
Chapter 255 A Certain Scientific Railgun
There are always "mad scientists" everywhere, especially in a place like Academy City that specializes in studying destiny walkers. The research direction here can be said to be specialized in destiny walkers, and every effort is made to improve the abilities of destiny walkers from the perspectives of biology and energetics. As a public messenger, a single hair of Alex could be sold at a sky-high price on the underground black market.
Of course, it bears repeating that Alex does not lose his hair.
Ruan Mei couldn't hold back her curiosity and secretly studied Alex. A similar situation existed here.
As the planet covered by the company's trade, if someone dares to spy on the company's honorary directors, the company will be the first to disagree. This is a contempt and provocation to the company.
"The company's investigation team will arrive within two system hours." Sebastian negotiated with UN Secretary Laura: "Please cooperate with the investigation."
They would not leave this matter to the local authorities to deal with. They had to investigate it themselves. Sebastian said with a straight face: "For the company, 1094 is not the only option on this route."
Laura immediately clenched her hands and looked embarrassed. Alex's good talk was Alex's business, and the company did not have a reputation for being "easy to talk" in the universe. For such a "small matter", the company could cut off contact with the planet, impose a technological blockade, currency war, etc. If this matter was not handled properly, it would become a major event that would affect the prosperity of the entire planet.
"I'm sorry, sir." Sebastian turned to Alex and apologized, "It was my fault for not being able to scout the location in advance."
"Okay, Sebastian." Alex said with a smile. Someone had already played the good cop, so there was no need to make things difficult. The reason for the mistake was that Alex changed his schedule. He knew that his arrival had caused a lot of trouble for others. He said, "Don't make things difficult for Miss Laura. Just investigate the matter thoroughly."
"Ms. Laura, don't worry. We won't take some individual actions to the level of the collective." He said, "Let's just look forward to the opening of the Daiba Star Festival. Don't let these things ruin our good mood."
"Well, thank you for your understanding." Seeing that Alex didn't mean to pursue the matter too much, Laura breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We will definitely give you an explanation from the company."
"After all, my uncle is full of treasures."
What you said is so strange, Xier. Alex looked at Xier and said, "It seems that I have to protect my uncle closely."
"You protect me?"
Alex had a strange look on his face, and Xier also had a strange look on her face. She looked at Alex and said, "You have to protect your uncle from being fooled by the honey trap. If someone forcefully kisses you or something like that, you can't prevent your uncle from being fooled."
Snapped.
Alex tapped Xier's head and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Don't worry, even saliva or other genetic genes can be turned into nothingness."
"Hmm? Uncle, do you think we can do whatever we want as long as we take safety measures?" Xier said earnestly, "Rose's bathroom can no longer be expanded, and Klipperburg can't accommodate more people."
If Xier follows him, Alex will never be able to traffic girls back to Beloberg again!
There are enough people at home!
"Yes, yes, yes." Alex rubbed Xier's hair vigorously and said, "You are controlling me now."
Seeing Alex talking and laughing with others, Laura let go of the last breath she had been holding. It seemed that she was really not angry about it. She also smiled and said, "The opening ceremony will start in fifteen minutes. I will take Mr. Sebastian to the rostrum for a test."
"Thank you."
…………
There are many colleges in Academy City, covering all-age education from kindergarten, elementary school, middle school, high school to university. Those who have awakened their destiny can enjoy free admission here, while parents who want their children to become destiny walkers have to pay a considerable fee to enter. The Daiha Star Festival is a competition between schools to determine the winners of each event and rank the schools.
Of course, many events are asymmetric confrontations. For example, if a school with mostly destiny walkers draws a lot and is assigned to an ordinary school, it will face a ten-fold difference in numbers. In addition, many famous destiny walkers will be restricted from using some of their abilities. Otherwise, the competition will be boring.
Alex came to the podium and sat in the center seat. On both sides were the directors of Academy City, a white-haired lady, and the president of the United Nations, Teden, and company representatives. Looking at the athletes from various schools entering the playground, Alex felt the youthfulness that was overflowing.
Sportswear should be loose short sleeves and sports shorts. Anyone who uses loose jackets and long pants is insulting the word sportswear. Alex looked at those young men and women and felt much better.
"It's a real person. It's really Alex Rand."
The girl with short brown hair said excitedly, "I didn't expect it to really come. I'm a little nervous, what should I do, Kuroko."
Shirai Kuroko, whose real name is Kuroko, is sometimes called "Little Kuroko" according to the way people call her here. She said, "Sister, are you regretting not agreeing to be the swearing-in representative now? That way, you could see him up close."
"Maybe we could have taken a photo and gotten an autograph. I regret this so much."
The girl with short brown hair is called Misaka Mikoto. She is not an ordinary person among the students. She is one of the only seven Level.7 in Academy City. In Academy City, people will rank the power of the Destiny Walker. The unawakened is called LEVEL.5, and the power rises in sequence as the power increases. Reaching Level.0 means that it can be rated as an S-class heroic Destiny Walker outside, and has the power to destroy a modern army alone.
In the universe, this is considered a very powerful destiny walker. Even in a faction full of powerful people, he can take on some positions to command others.
Not only Misaka Mikoto, almost all the students were looking at the man sitting in the center of the rostrum. They worship the strong here. The locals' favorite thing is electronic cricket fighting. Not only is there a ranking in the Academy City, but there is also a ranking for heroes and villains outside. After joining the Interstellar Peace Network, they are fighting with others everywhere to see who is more powerful. And now, in the public record, Alex is the strongest commander.
Alex had seen many students secretly taking pictures of themselves with their mobile phones, and he would occasionally cooperate by looking at the camera and smiling.
"Mr. Rand, Academy City will certainly cooperate with the investigation of what happened just now." Okinafune Monaka, the Academy City director with a strange name but a kind look, waved to the student team passing by and said to Alex, "The board of directors is also responsible for failing to supervise properly. We will shoulder the responsibility we should bear."
Alex felt that the old lady's words seemed to want to take the blame herself and give up herself, so he smiled and said, "That's not necessary."
"Thank you, we will also conduct a thorough internal investigation."
Alex turned his head and glanced at the lady. Wasn't this hinting to him that the person spying on him might be another member of the Academy City Unified Council? He thought about it and realized that this didn't seem to be to divert the blame or cause a party dispute, but to express a friendly attitude, even if something went wrong, it could keep the situation a bit smaller.
"Well, I believe that 1094, including Academy City, will be fine in principle."
If there is a problem in principle, then we have to discuss it separately.
The student teams passed by one by one, and the media broadcast screen would occasionally focus on Alex, which attracted cheers from the audience. After the team entered the field, the chairman, Mr. Teden, gave a speech, mostly encouraging words, encouraging the students to show their true selves and show their style. Then the athlete representatives took the oath.
Two students walked to the front of the mobile platform, facing the rostrum. Alex clapped his hands and looked at them. One boy and one girl. The girl had golden hair and a mature figure that did not match that of a middle school student. Even in her sportswear, she still wore white stockings and lace gloves. She squinted her eyes and smiled sweetly at Alex. The other boy looked like a passionate young man.
"Shokuhou Misaki, ranked fifth in the academy's Level 5." The director of the ship next to her introduced, "The other one is Sogiita Gunha, ranked seventh."
Uh, who is Qi? I have to say. Alex sighed, the names of the students here are really weird. It feels like they just picked a few words from the dictionary and put them together.
"Athletes take the oath!" Two Level 5s, a man and a woman, said at the same time: "We will uphold the spirit of sportsmen and participate in this year's Daiba Star Festival. We will turn the dreams and passion of young people into motivation and make this everlasting bond, bond..."
Sogiita Gunha began to mumble into the microphone: "What's next? Never mind!"
The faces of the people on the rostrum had begun to stiffen, but Sogiita Gunba said with extraordinary passion: "Let those people with rotten roots see this, and make this conference a memory full of roots!"
Shokuhou Misaki's expression was frozen. The voice that was originally reciting the oath was completely suppressed by the people beside her. The hot-blooded idiot next to her clenched his fists and said, "No matter what difficulties and obstacles I encounter, no matter how many times I fall, I will use my strength to overcome them thoroughly...!"
bang——
"Surpass him!"
He raised his fist with all his strength, and the power in his body burst out directly and indiscriminately, turning into colorful smoke. With a passionate rising dragon, all the friendly students behind him were blown to the ground. And he himself, with a determined look, folded his arms and looked forward seriously.
Chairman Teden looked at the chaotic scene in front of him and racked his brains to think of a way to smooth things over. Alex clapped his hands and said with a smile: "You are a passionate young man, not bad, but what is your nature?"
Alex doesn't hate this kind of pure, hot-blooded idiot. Only pure people are suitable for pioneering a destiny.
"It should be backbone." Teden explained, then clapped his hands and asked with an awkward smile: "Mr. Rand, do you want to say a few words?"
"I don't need that. Just announce the start of the game."
……
"Hello." After the opening ceremony, the arrangements for the competition began. The two students who took the oath walked to the podium to take a photo with Alex. Alex smiled and encouraged, "Sogiita Gunha and Shokuhou Misaki, right?"
"Mr. Rand!" Sogiita Junba walked forward excitedly. The passionate young man with a ribbon tied on his head and a red sports jacket strode towards Alex and said, "I have watched the video of your fight with the Antimatter Army no less than a thousand times! Can you give me an autograph?"
"Of course, where do I sign?"
"Can I have the clothes?" He immediately took them off. Alex took the pen from the side and signed his name on the back of the man's clothes. He said, "Good luck in the game. I'm rooting for you."
"Yes!" Sogiita Junba's eyes welled up with tears when he saw the signature. He said, "After I graduate, I will also be like you, helping people in need in the universe and fighting against evil forces such as the Antimatter Corps and the Annihilation Gang! Please look forward to my future performance. I will use my instincts to play to my full potential!"
"General Landau, could you please sign for me too?" He saw Jeppard standing next to him and moved closer, saying, "I've watched you build a wall of ice and snow at least five hundred times."
"Thank you for your support." Jeppard also took the pen and signed his name, and also wrote a short message. Xi'er, who was standing next to him, patted Jeppard on the shoulder, took the pen and prepared to sign, but found that the young man turned around and went back.
"Uh." Xi'er awkwardly put the pen back into Jeppard's hand and said, "Don't I have any fame in the universe?"
Why don't you ask me for an autograph?
"Because you are so fast, no camera can capture your appearance. It's all Jeppard." Alex turned around and laughed and joked, "Unlike Jeppard, who always stands at a fixed point to take close-ups."
Xier rolled her eyes and said, "Tsk."
After teasing Xier, Alex looked at the girl who looked like a young lady with blonde hair. When she saw Alex's gaze coming, she avoided him and kept a distant, even guarded distance.
Shokuhou Misaki has stars in her eyes. Alex glanced at her. Girls with stars in their eyes are usually quite sinister. He said, "Let's take a photo together."
The game officially begins.
It was more lively than expected. There was a big fight right from the start. The two schools were doing a putting game - a bit like capturing the flag, with hundreds of students on both sides. And...
Boom boom boom boom boom! When the colorful power lit up on the field, Alex and the others realized that these students didn't even take many protective measures. They relied entirely on the first aid on the sidelines and their own resistance. He couldn't help laughing as he watched the situation on the field. It was comparable to a battlefield, but the atmosphere was really warm.
"Although they are still quite immature, with basically no tactics or order, they have a good momentum." Jeppard also praised them. The charge of the Belobergs was tragic and heroic, but here, it was more about the passion of youth. He had never experienced this feeling before, and it was quite interesting to watch.
The sports meet was not all held at the main venue. There were many branch venues in Academy City. There was a large-scale group battle here, and outside they were also preparing for a three-legged race - the kind that allowed the use of abilities. Not only could one watch the live broadcast from the rostrum, but one could also watch the outside broadcast. Alex's attention was quickly drawn to the outside events.
These two tripods are not allowed to attack others, but they can use various means to cause trouble. This is a competition that is very much in the spirit of the "Han Country". When the boys and girls set out, they are tied up with ropes by the contestants to restrict their movements. After finally untying them, some people can control the little squirrels to harass the contestants...
"Cough cough cough."
When Xier saw someone actually used a squirrel to bite off a girl's bra and panties as a distraction, she couldn't help but say, "This is too despicable."
The development of imaginary power here is really bizarre.
"If Xi'er participates in this kind of event, she can bring her teammates to the finish line in the blink of an eye." Alex said with a smile, and the winner of the three-legged race outside was quickly decided. The winner was a brown-haired girl named Misaka Mikoto and her teammate, Married Photon. She used electromagnetic force as a hook to move quickly, and also prevented her opponent from getting hurt.
"This is also a Level 5 Destiny Walker in the academy, Misaka Mikoto." Someone nearby introduced, "She and Shokuhou Misaki are both from Tokiwadai Academy. This academy is the favorite to win this year's competition and is an elite girls' school here."
"Yeah." Alex nodded and said, "Okay, let's go shopping on our own. I can't have you guys here with me all the time."
"Let Miss Tornado follow." Laura behind her immediately came up.
"No need." Alex said with a smile, "I will walk alone and no one will see me. It is easy to become a target if I bring people with me. You don't need to prepare lunch. I will be back in the evening."
…………
"There are quite a lot of food and entertainment. I see a lot of stalls are set up by students." Jeppard was still responsible for socializing and stayed there. Xier naturally came out with Alex. Under the influence of the nihilistic stance, it would be difficult for others to recognize their faces even if they saw them with the naked eye - they would just regard them as ordinary faces.
It was called a sports meet, but it was actually more like a lively festival. The streets of Academy City were lined with students setting up stalls, selling all kinds of snacks and handicrafts. The whole city looked like a temple fair. Xier bought some food and said as she ate, "It's more comfortable to go shopping like this."
"We have to be nicer to Bronya in the future. She is in charge of all official matters now. She is exhausted from socializing, let alone formulating any strategies." Alex said, "I feel guilty about Bronya when I think about it."
"It's okay, we'll forget about it in a few days." Seele waved her hand. She knew Bronya's character. Even if she didn't become president, she would probably be a female CEO, a strong woman who would buy other people's companies everywhere. It was a burden for them, but it was more fulfilling for Bronya.
"As for the combination of work and rest, don't worry, uncle. I will take her out of the office to relax. You can take her with you next time you go out."
Xier put her hands behind her head and walked along with a swagger, saying, "Isn't that Misaka Mikoto who won first place just now? Uncle, what do you think her fate is."
"Intellectual."
"..." Misaka Mikoto suddenly squeezed her phone hard, and the green frog phone case suddenly creaked. She quickly reduced her strength to prevent the surrounding phone case from being damaged, but looking at the content on the screen...
So envious.
Shokuhou Misaki, who was from the same school, posted a photo with Alex Rand on SNS, which received a lot of likes. Although the girl had only shown necessary etiquette and a little bit of nervousness and caution when meeting Alex in person before, she did express her excitement on social networks.
The contestant representative was originally going to pick from Level.5, and Misaka Mikoto was also one of the candidates, but she refused and now regrets it very much - she and Shokuhou Misaki are not compatible at all, and the other party seems to have always regarded her as an opponent.
After all, they are two Level 5s from the same school, so it is normal for them to compete with each other. Now when Misaka Mikoto sees the other person posting photos, she feels...
I'm so envious!
"Ahhh, I don't seem that happy after getting first place. Forget it, let's go buy a cake." She said dejectedly while sitting on the roadside, not knowing that Alex was passing by her. At the moment when the two of them crossed each other, she suddenly raised her head and looked at the "non-existent" thing in front of her.
"Can she see us?" Xier looked back at the other party as she walked away, and Alex said, "The positions overlapped. This girl is quite amazing. She used electricity to form her own position and can maintain it normally. Because her own position was destroyed by my brush with her, she must have noticed something."
"She should be only fourteen years old." Xi'er said with a smile: "When I was my age, I didn't know what a stance was. Of course, if we were to fight, she would have many flaws."
"After all, this is a peaceful academy, and the main purpose is to study. I see that many of the students here have basically no experience in using magic. Beloberg back then was different. You would go out and cause trouble for the Rift Creatures when you were twelve or thirteen years old."
"However, a capable girl like this." Xier looked at the other person's chest, which was completely out of Alex's strike zone, and said with a smile: "I would still be happy to bring her back to Beloberg to train me."
"I'm not bringing anyone back this time. If there are really good talents, there will be official recruitment." Alex waved his hand and said, "The next stop is to meet the Amber King. How can I bring people with me?"
