  In the virtual stars and universe, the translucent body of the huge dark blue mech passes through the star sea of ​​light spots.

The fluorescent blue luster reflected the facial features of the driver traveling with it clearly and brightly. Bai Li turned his head to look at the mecha, and under the operation of Situ and other technicians in the background, the white01 model also turned his head to look back.

Bai Li gave it a thumbs up.

The mech slowly raised its arm and gave two thumbs up.

In addition to the applause, there were several laughter in the auditorium.

The camera equipped with the suspended robot is constantly flashing light, which is the proof that the photos are being taken, and it is like burning stars in this vast scene.

In a few minutes, photos of the opening ceremony of the Imperial Research Institute Contest will continue to flow out on the star network, triggering heated discussions.

This year's solicitation competition set off an unprecedented mecha craze in the empire. The chic figures of the pilots and the cold lines of the mechas captured the hearts of countless people. The way Baili and Jijia looked at each other and gave the thumbs up made the citizens of the empire a little bit amused, and a little bit emotional.

Even in years of silence, some people still have not extinguished the light.

Bai Li didn't react to the hovering robots that kept a safe distance around him. He looked at the mecha that he poured his heart and soul into, and felt the blood in his veins boiling.

He seemed to have returned to the day when he first piloted the mecha. It was rare for old man Bai to be a careful person and took him to see his mecha.

Standing in front of that mecha that has now been eliminated, Bai Li felt unbelievable that he could drive such a big guy. Like a cub being pushed to a higher position, he looked back at old man Bai with some show off and excitement in a daze. The old man nodded to him.

In the bright light, Bai Li looked at the mecha in front of him, opened his mouth, and turned his head to look at the auditorium.

The auditorium is hidden in the dark virtual universe.

But Bai Li knew that there were still people nodding to him.

It's Lu Zhao.

It's Jiang Hao.

It's Mr. Bai.

He subconsciously turned the wedding ring on his left hand twice, then raised his left hand and gave a thumbs up in the direction of the auditorium.

In the auditorium, Lu Zhao smiled.

"Old leader," Jiang Hao sat beside him, stretched his arms and gave a thumbs up, "It's so handsome." The

audience immersed in the atmosphere was mobilized by the dazzling mechs, and Bai Li The scene of giving the thumbs up with the mech was the first, and many people followed suit and gave two thumbs up.

Someone in the crowd yelled.

"I support your R&D idea—"

His voice was covered up by the applause and discussions at the scene, but Lu Zhao could still hear him clearly as he sat relatively close.

"—Major General Bai!"

Lu Zhao and the others glanced back. It was a female beta wearing the uniform of the affiliated star garrison.

The shouts from the audience could not reach the ears of the people on the main field, but Bai Li still laughed heartily.

After the main star driver walked through the main arena, it was the turn of the drivers of each sub-division to take the stage one by one.

As soon as Bai Li walked backstage, he met with several drivers who stayed in the backstage and hadn't left the main competition area.

The research institutes in the same competition area basically knew each other's situation, and the pilots were not strangers. One or two pilots from other research institutes smiled friendly and shook hands with Bai Li.

"Mr. Bai Li, I am looking forward to the next competition," a driver said with a smile, "My sister has been telling me about your research institute, and I really want to compete with you." There was a hint of pride in his tone, but his attitude

was Very polite.

The current Baili is different from what was left in people's impressions before. The control of the world consciousness gradually weakened with Tang Kaiyuan being suppressed. People began to have their own ideas and opinions. The members were polite and respectful to Bai Li, but also a little scrutinized.

Bai Li's hand was shaken by the driver with strong hands, and he didn't feel much disgust. The provocation between alphas is quite normal: "Success, if you can keep winning, you will meet me sooner or later.

" The meaning couldn't be more obvious, Bai Li wants to win all the time.

Different from the image of eating soft food in the rumors, this kind of response gave the pilots who were born in actual combat a little sense of identity, and the somewhat awkward atmosphere eased.

The surrounding pilots also shook hands, and introduced themselves to the research institutes they belonged to and the type of mecha they were driving.

There is no need for Bai Li to introduce himself, someone has already started talking to Bai Li: "Mr. Bai's mecha is very... unique, I don't know if he gave up the attack or is preparing to find another way?" The tone was a little tentative, but kept the

basics respect.

"I heard that it was developed for special groups of people," another driver asked, "We are all curious, don't mind, just ask, after all, your research and development philosophy is not the same as the empire's research and development direction. Too much the same."

These words made the rest of the people subconsciously look at Bai Li's legs.

Rumor has it that the injury was so serious that he couldn't drive the mecha. His left leg was wrapped in his trousers, and nothing unusual could be seen.

Bai Li smiled, and said lightly: "Play a few games, and you will know what kind of mecha it is."

Several people nodded, and the pilot who spoke first said: "Yes, what kind of mecha is it? After just a few rounds—"

"What else could it be?" A driver who had just left the main arena sneered

. The driver who spoke was quite big, a fierce alpha of the mainstream type in the empire, with a short shaved head and a few scars on his face.

"Just talk, you're going too far," the driver who first spoke to Bai Li frowned, "We talk about ours, and if you don't want to listen, don't interrupt." "I'm just telling you what you want to say directly

. That's all I said," the big man said disdainfully, "Everyone is pretending to be serious, making it look like it's really rare. You just don't like it in your heart, so you have to pretend to ask, pretending that I don't know?"

Around Several people were very embarrassed and hurriedly explained to Bai Li.

Bai Li waved his hand, and took out his personal terminal to contact Situ and the others indifferently.

Seeing that Bai Li didn't say a word, the big man confirmed all kinds of rumors about Bai Li's soft food outside, pushed aside a driver who wanted to persuade him to fight, and said to Bai Li: "Mr. Bai, I respect you as a person, but you I really don't agree with this kind of research and development behavior that caters to a small group of people. Don't blame me for speaking harshly. I'll tell you the truth, you are just encouraging some people to develop abnormal psychology and disrupt the traditional order." "Gao Hai, you are looking for trouble

. Right?" A driver rubbed the fire, "Go crazy and get out."

The big man called Gao Hai pushed him: "Is there something wrong with what I said? Don't you think so?"

The drivers who haven't left yet A few people persuaded a few words, and a few remained silent, and only looked at Bai Li a few more times.

It's basically alpha here, and everyone's ideas inevitably overlap. In fact, the public's thoughts can be seen from the star network, and Bai Li is not too surprised.

What people have to contend with is not just things that are one level higher than ourselves. In fact, most of the time, what we face is precisely the people around us who are similar to ourselves.

The air is filled with unstable alpha pheromones, restless and colliding with each other.

Situ led the researchers into the rest area here with the equipment in their arms, and was overwhelmed by the oncoming pheromones. He frowned, glanced at the big man named Gao Hai with a little disgust, and walked to Bai Li: "Don't fight with him, private fights are prohibited in the competition, otherwise you will be disqualified." Bai Li nodded,

he Originally, I didn't intend to compete with this person, anyway, sooner or later we will see each other on the field.

Many drivers who had just left the main arena were stranded in the rest area, and they were about to pack up and disperse when they heard a burst of exclamation from the audience outside the main arena.

The virtual screen in the driver's rest area is showing the latest driver who has passed the main arena. This exclamation made everyone in the rest area subconsciously look over.

On the virtual screen, a projection of a heavy-duty mech with a traditional shape but a strong sense of fortitude follows the driver's footsteps across the galaxy.

Situ only took one look, then cursed an extremely nasty imperial swear word, and immediately turned to look at Bai Li.

Bai Li stood in front of the virtual screen, and he was familiar with the mecha in his eyes.

Just haven't seen it in years.

KL223 model, nicknamed "fly swatter".

Eighty percent of this mecha imitated the outline of the eliminated KL223 model, and even the color of the factory spray paint was roughly the same.

"The LIN23 model was developed by Shengshi Research Institute. Its appearance follows the obsolete heavy-duty mech KL223 model to pay tribute to its predecessors." Artificial intelligence made an extra paragraph for this old model of mecha. Introduction, "Driver, Tang Kaiyuan."

This introduction successfully won another wave of applause.

Under the heavy armor shrouded in brilliance, the young alpha who walked through the main arena calmly showed a gentle smile.

And put his hand on his chest and patted it lightly.

This is a tribute to the ancestors of the imperial soldiers.

There was a lot of discussion around.

"Be careful, this model is quite special."

"I have an impression of this kid, from the Tang family, right? He's from a famous family." "

It's not easy for people to miss this old model."

Bai Li stared at the mecha that walked past the main arena. He was too familiar with the outline. This was the most powerful mecha he had ever driven, and it was his favorite model. The last model ever opened.

From the day when the KL223 model was announced to be scrapped, Bai Li had never seen it outside of the Internet.

"Bai Li," Situ bumped into him next to him, "This is just a fake, very clumsy."

Bai Li came back to his senses, and smiled at Situ: "I'll just take a look."

I don't know what to do, Situ The nerves were shocked by these four words, and my heart felt a little sour. He patted Bai Li's shoulder and took a few deep breaths before he was so angry that he scolded his mother in public.

It's not that Situ and the others haven't done investigations before the game. The mecha of the Shengshi Research Institute is only 40 to 50% similar to the fly swatter. I didn't expect that the post-processing and color selection would bring the similarity to the next level. Eighty percent.

The same heavy mecha, the same emphasis on destructive power, the same outer shape.

Bai Li's expression was very calm, and he walked out with Situ and others amidst the surrounding discussions.

"Alpha should drive heavy mechs like ours," Gao Hai's voice came through the crowd, "If you can't drive it, you should get out of the way."

Yang Han glanced back.

"What are you looking at?" Gao Hai snorted, "I'm the most disgusting person running around outside."

Yang Han's face turned pale, and he couldn't help replying: "I've never seen such an ugly one, so I took a second look. "

Situ and a few other researchers gave him a slightly surprised look. Yang Han was quite dull when he first entered the research institute, but he didn't expect that after staying with them for a long time, he started to speak with enthusiasm.

These words made the surrounding drivers laugh a few times, Gao Hai's face darkened, and the pheromone suddenly rose, pressing directly on Yang Han.

There were O and B among the researchers who were close to Yang Han's station, and a wave of pheromone was suppressed by the head. At that time, they had headaches and weak legs.

In the next second, the two pheromones quickly counterattacked, and the pheromones of Baili and Situ quickly formed a barrier to isolate Gao Hai's smell.

"When will this kind of junk come in and out casually in the contest?" Gao Hai scolded, "I—" The

second half of the sentence stuck in my throat as if someone had pinched my neck, and Bai Li's pheromone was compressed into one The terrifying range cut Gao Hai's nerves like a steel knife.

The driver's rest area, which was originally noisy, lost its sound due to the suppression of this powerful pheromone.

"That's right," Bai Li said flatly, "When will the solicitation competition allow you to come in and out at will?"

Gao Hai's face was quite ugly.

According to outside rumors, Bai Li has long been an alpha with a failing health, and he almost affirms that Bai Li only entered the competition through his connections.

"Calm down," a driver resisted the anxiety of being pressured by Bai Li's pheromone, "You will be disqualified if you fight in private." "There is no need to fight,"

Bai Li walked over, reached out and patted Gao Hai's cheek, "I'm just standing here, do you dare to make a move?"

Gao Hai stared, raised his fist suddenly and was about to throw it at Bai Li.

Unexpectedly, Bai Li's pheromone soared to another level, Gao Hai's legs softened and he sat on the ground.

Bai Li squatted down under everyone's gaze, and patted Gao Hai's head like a dog.

"Hey," he sighed, "don't worry, I'll kill you during the competition."

The voice was very relaxed and cheerful, and the tone even had the politeness unique to these noble-born young masters.

It seems that even the three words at the end are extraordinarily gentle.

kill you.

The drivers standing around swallowed their saliva, and when they spoke to Bai Li just now, they turned their eyes away in a slightly aggressive tone, pretending not to see Gao Hai's embarrassment.

Bai Li stood up, nodded to the drivers around him, and walked out the door with Situ without looking at Gao Hai again.

Someone shouted from behind: "Mr. Bai."

Bai Li looked back.

Tang Kaiyuan just came down from the main arena, stood at the end of the arena, and looked at him with a smile on his face: "I salute you."

The grievances between the Bai family and the Tang family are almost unknown in the empire, and the rest area is quiet , the drivers exchanged glances with each other.

Bai Li glanced at Tang Kaiyuan, without saying a word, and led the people out the door.

The people in the rest area breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry," Tang Kaiyuan was a little shy, "That's his temper, don't mind."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Bai Li walking back outside the door.

In front of everyone, he gave Tang Kaiyuan a middle finger.

"I just have this temper," Eldest Young Master Bai said, "Don't mind me." He

walked out in front of everyone.

The rest area was silent for a while, and after a while, someone laughed uncontrollably.
