Uma Musume, do I have to tell you that I know how to use the Santa Hat special move?

(…?)

But even if I saw it, I couldn't understand what was happening before my eyes.

Something completely contrary to common sense just happened on this field.

A few seconds ago, Zhuo Fu, who was approaching from behind him, had now run in front of Mebai McQueen.

Neither she, nor the French runner, nor Mejiro McQueen, made any move to get out of the way, but...

"Straight...through?"

Bai Ren muttered to himself.

Chapter 82: True Genius: Zhuo Fu

[Okay, you can see that all the players have now completed the first three waves of the track, and the competition has officially entered the middle stage. ]

[The speed of the two runners in front, Stardust Illusion and Miura Bourbon, has gradually stabilized. It seems that they have decided to run at the current safe distance of 8 horse lengths. ]

[At the front of the second group is still Mejiro McQueen. This runner from the Mejiro family is very calm at the moment. Does he want to decide the outcome in the second half? ]

[Then the six French runners still occupied the remaining leading positions. Their running style was very stable, with both strength and endurance. Is this the strength of French exchange students? ! ]

[Then there are Narita Shirahito and Taiki Express. It can be seen that their situation is not optimistic. If they can't break through the front... Wait! ]

Facing the current competition situation, the host is introducing it enthusiastically.

However, looking at the situation on the field, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Then, a light pink lightning cut through the entire rain curtain, chasing all the way from the third-to-last position, and almost in the blink of an eye it arrived behind the second echelon in front!

The host finally reacted and quickly grabbed the microphone and shouted:

[——It’s Zhuo Fu! French runner Zhuo Fu is catching up!!!]

[Zhuo Fu, who was originally in a bad position, suddenly started to speed up at the second bend. She left behind the Noble Clan and the chasing Ling Amazon and Golden Ship. She was so fast! And her movements were unusually light! ]

[She has already caught up with Narita Shirahito! Is she preparing to join the advanced team? ! ]

【Varied--】

At this time, the host suddenly fell silent again.

In the stadium, the audience who were watching the game were silent as if they had agreed. The stadium, which was bustling just a moment ago, was suddenly shrouded in silence.

In front of all of them, the runner Zhuo Fu passed three runners in one breath in an incomprehensible way and came to the position in front of Mejiro McQueen.

In the end what happened? !

The audience was so shocked that they were speechless for a moment.

(This is the first time since I was a kid... Grandma Hyde!)

(I finally stand on this field again and compete with other opponents!)

Zhuo Fu was breathing heavily.

She had just passed three people in one breath and was now regaining her breathing rhythm.

She lowered her head slightly and chased forward.

(This is completely different from running side by side or practicing secretly by yourself——)

In Zhuo Fu's mind, she recalled the scenes of herself and her sisters running side by side on the track for training, and the scenes of running on the streets of Paris every day for several years.

Her eyes couldn't help but feel a little sore, but this did not affect Zhuo Fu's condition.

(Behind me, there is a powerful enemy who may catch up with me at any time, and in front of me is the opponent I want to defeat...)

(This feeling… I did it, I can finally compete with everyone on the field!!!)

At this moment, she had never felt so happy, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly when no one was paying attention.

Even the tears that fell from her eyes could not hinder her goal at the moment. In Zhuo Fu's blue eyes, as bright as sea gems, there was only the back of the person in front of her.

Stardust illusion!

--------

In the VIP viewing room, Maruzenski and Rudolf symbolized that neither of them missed this scene.

They straightened up at the same time and watched the situation at the competition site seriously.

"She... just passed through?" Maruzenski turned to look at Rudolph and asked, "Who is this runner?"

As perceptive as she was, she had already figured out what the running style that this runner with pink hair had just demonstrated to all the spectators meant.

Rudolph frowned slightly and did not answer immediately.

It was not until this moment that she understood why the prominent family had to temporarily add this horse racing girl to their team for the competition.

Zhuo Fu, the horse racing girl, may be the player with the greatest potential in this competition.

Even better than Stardust Illusion!

Rudolph and Maruzenski, their strength and experience as horse girls are already top-notch, and they are also born with extraordinary eyesight.

So no one, like the audience who were already excited at this moment, thought that Zhuo Fu really passed through the bodies of several people.

Rudolph recalled the scene he had just seen.

In the previous section of the race, Zhuo Fu was chasing and almost bumped into Narita Hakuhito from behind.

She lowered her body slightly, hiding herself in the blind spot below Bai Ren's right visual field.

Before Narita Shirahito could figure out what was happening, she had passed by.

Next came the two French runners. Zhuo Fu did the same thing again, hiding her body from the left side of one of them, and even stretched out her right hand to lightly support the other's waist to prevent a collision, and then ran forward.

The last one was Mejiro McQueen. Because the time when Zhuo Fu passed by the two of them was too short, McQueen didn't even have time to notice what was happening behind him.

The moment McQueen turned his head to the left and tried to see who was coming, Zhuo Fu had already bypassed McQueen's field of vision from the right side and broke through to the front.

Zhuo Fu seemed to have made full use of the heavy rain, which became the best curtain to cover her petite figure and light footsteps.

She performed such an extraordinary magic in front of all the audience!

"Her running style is completely different from Stardust Illusion's aggressive and destructive running style."

Maruzenski also recalled the scene just now and sighed:

"With the smallest turning range and extreme speed, he bypassed every opponent's field of vision like flowing water and twisted them away... What light footsteps!"

"The most important thing is that she is different from Stardust Illusion. Stardust Illusion uses sudden changes in speed to disrupt the opponent's judgment, and then runs at the fastest speed at this moment."

"On the contrary, this runner used a light and agile step that seemed to be weightless, twisting away all opponents who stood in her way... At the same time, she could maintain the highest speed!"

Speaking of this, Maruzenski's eyes revealed enthusiasm. She couldn't wait to join the race and compete with this incredible runner.

"Her name is Zhuo Fu." Rudolf saw Maruzenski's performance, closed his eyes slightly, sighed and continued, "She is a newly recruited runner from the French Academy."

Rudolf was in a heavy mood at this moment. Seeing Zhuo Fu running, Maruzenski's rising fighting spirit against her, and remembering the importance the noble family attached to her.

She also had to admit that this runner was almost certain to become the ace of the new generation of France.

And this also means... Zhuo Fu, with her magical steps, will most likely take over from the aristocratic family and stand in the way of the runners in Japan who continue to challenge the Arc de Triomphe.

(Sirius symbol, Golden Master...)

Rudolf thought of his two good friends who were now fighting overseas.

Due to some competition system reasons, these two runners were not able to keep in touch with their domestic counterparts very conveniently after going abroad, so she was not very clear about each other's current situation.

But what she knew clearly was that before going abroad, both of them had said to her ambitiously: they would definitely win the world-class championship and bring glory back to the academy.

It is of course a very gratifying thing to be able to meet an opponent who is equally matched or even stronger than yourself in a competition.

But what about their ideals...

Rudolph symbolizes the inability to find an answer to one's own question.

Chapter 83 Zhuo Fu Attacks

The game continues and gradually enters the middle stage.

The two runners at the front have successfully crossed the second bend and entered the second straight of the race.

"Huh, huh..."

Stardust Illusion, at this moment she has begun to breathe gradually.

As a horse girl who escaped at the beginning, her endurance pressure was higher than others, and Miura Bourbon tried to force her from behind...

Although she immediately thought of a way to deal with Bourbon's interference, the lost endurance could not be recovered.

As someone who had the lowest endurance in the competition, she was now clearly beginning to feel the physical pressure.

With this thought in mind, Stardust Illusion turned his head slightly and looked at Bourbon behind him.

However, Bourbon was still running behind him with an expressionless face, and it could be seen from her face that her physical condition was much better than his.

(There is still 1500m to go. I need to keep suppressing everyone and leave everyone behind me...)

(I will carry this great escape through to the end and take victory back into my own hands!)

Feeling the soreness in his body, Stardust Illusion slowly exhaled a breath of foul air.

"It works."

She said to herself.

Although the physical pressure was indeed enormous and the running conditions on the racecourse were not optimistic, Stardust Illusion was still confident that he could complete the entire race.

The power of the Great Escape lies in its ability to drag all opponents into the mud, making them suffer from the same endurance problem as itself.

Even though Miura Bourbon's current condition was not bad, she would never be able to handle it with ease.

(Keep going!)

(This race is not just to cheer McQueen up, but also to defeat Zhuo Fu, defeat the noble family, leave everyone behind, and enjoy the shining of this star alone!)

The Stardust Illusion slowly raised her head, the flames in her blood-red eyes danced, and the muscles all over her body gradually tensed up.

The emotions that had just been fluctuating in my heart were completely suppressed by her.

If you want to win this game, you have to keep running! Keep running without leaving any room for error!

The surging aura swept across the arena in an instant, full of wildness and fighting spirit.

Stardust suddenly took a step forward, aiming at the straight runway in front of him and bursting out with powerful force -

--no.

(?!)

However, just when she was about to burst out at speed again, Stardust Illusion felt an inexplicable palpitation in her heart.

It's not fear or worry.

But it is purer than these emotions - the throbbing that comes from instinct!

Someone is catching up!

The air seemed to become sticky again, and a scent that seemed to carry a sweet fragrance went straight into her nostrils.

what? !

Stardust Illusion was unable to comprehend what was happening for a moment.

He and Bourbon escaped and left the rear team a distance of 8 horse lengths behind.

Although it is not to say that it is impossible to catch up at this distance, but what surprised the Stardust Illusion was that even if someone was chasing him, they must have been bursting out at a speed close to the limit.

In this state, the pursuer's footsteps must be full of powerful roars.

However, she did not hear any footsteps that could match this statement.

In my ears, besides my own steps, there is the rhythmic and precise footsteps of Miura Bourbon...
