Chapter 37 - 37 The Temptation That Can't Be Refused
Mavis hadn't started yet. It seemed that she was waiting for the signal to begin.
"Just start directly. He'll dodge," Uncle Cam said.
"Okay," Mavis replied.
The tank started!
Although she had tried to start it and driven for a short distance just now, when she was really about to start in a combat posture, she was still very nervous.

Remember to shift gears after accelerating, otherwise the wear and tear in all aspects will increase. The training tank can't stand too much abuse," Uncle Cam said.
"Ah... what?" Mavis obviously didn't understand what he meant.
Even though the magic power drive didn't have a clutch, it was probably a bit difficult for Mavis to shift gears manually all of a sudden.
"Forget it. Just do as you like. I guess you don't know how to shift the gear lever on your right hand side either," Uncle Cam didn't insist.
The tank accelerated and charged forward!
"Whoa! It started too fast!"
Mavis wasn't paying attention and, with an error in steering wheel operation, directly crashed sideways into a small slope.
"..." Uncle Cam was speechless.
Ersha also laughed.
"This is probably what the little boss often calls a road killer..." Uncle Cam said.
There were only two small slopes in front of her. Even if she had steered a bit off course, she wouldn't have hit it so precisely from the side!
...
Fortunately, after all, she was someone who could drive a knight mecha. After getting a bit more familiar with it and calming down her nervousness a bit, Mavis's driving finally became more normal.
However, she was only driving at a speed of 20 kilometers per hour and didn't dare to go too fast.
"Wow, this beautiful mechanic doesn't know how to drive at all. How can she blow up the little boss?"
"When I first started, I drove at full speed and it was like flying!"
"Then you crashed into the guardrail and were severely scolded by the boss and punished to clean the toilets all night?"
The onlookers started chatting again.
The smoke magic device!
Sulian's side had already started moving and released a smoke screen.
"Damn it! The little boss even released smoke. Isn't that too cruel?"
"Beautiful mechanic, quickly fire a blast of wind element magic at the little boss. The switch button is in the second row on your left hand side!"
"Then quickly switch back to thunder and fire elements and attack him!"
The onlookers started giving instructions, looking as if they couldn't wait for Sulian to be defeated.
There was no way. Who asked Sulian to play with a beautiful girl?
He had incurred public wrath.
"Bang!"
Mavis fired the magic cannon. Although it was a bit off target, she had switched to the wind element, which dissipated part of the magic smoke. However, she still didn't see Sulian's tank for the moment.
"That's it. Fire another blast of wind element magic!"
Mavis tried to continue, but she found that there was a slight interval in the magic power filling, just like with the knight mecha. Then she froze in place.
"Come on! When the magic cannon is cooling down, just move! Don't just stand there. You'll get hit by the cannonfire!"
Mavis was then jolted awake and quickly accelerated again.
"Hmm? I thought the little boss couldn't fire the cannon?"
"It's just to scare her and make it more exciting."
"That makes sense!"
A group of people who didn't care about making trouble.
...
Subsequently, under the various chaotic instructions from the onlookers, Mavis finally managed to graze Sulian with a blast of fire element magic cannon after ten minutes.
The power was very small, but as long as it hit, that's how all training tanks were.
When it ended, Mavis was covered in sweat inside the driver's cabin. She was indeed a bit tired, but to a large extent, it was also due to excitement.
Feeling this new type of large mechanical weapon, Mavis's thoughts began to undergo a drastic change!
The idea of staying here had already started to outweigh the idea of returning to her own family.
...
"How do you feel?" Sulian drove the tank back and poked his head out of the driver's cabin to ask.
Nalin also squeezed out and stood next to Sulian. It was really stuffy inside.
"It's amazing!" Mavis replied excitedly!
After cleansing herself with water magic, Mavis also poked her head out of the driver's cabin.
"Then let's go. I'll show you the next one," Sulian smiled.
"Huh? The next one?" Professor Mavis was taken aback, looking a bit dazed.
Wasn't this the best new weapon?
"Look," Sulian pointed up at the sky with a smile.
Up there? What's there...
"Whir ——!"
Three propeller planes directly flew past the tank above Mavis's head, with a strong gust of wind fluttering her hair.
Mavis was completely stunned.
There were new weapons that could fly!?
Flying...
It wasn't a flying magical beast or an air cavalry, nor was it a specially made earth element anti-gravity magic combined with wind element flying magic to create an expensive magic mecha?
"Huff..."
Uncle Cam exhaled a puff of cigarette smoke and leisurely held a pipe.
"I just like it when we bring new people for a visit. They always look so shocked as if they've never seen the world," Uncle Cam said.
"This is just the initial model as the little Sulian described," Ersha smiled.
"Speaking of this, I'm really angry. This brat has had new designs for a long time but has been hiding them. He refused to take them out until we had fully understood this set of technology and completed actual combat tests," Uncle Cam said angrily.
"There's no way around it. Our current resources are limited. Before we can capture new areas that belong to us, it's impossible to develop better things, lest they be learned and copied by powerful empires. I trust you, but there are too many hired people, so we always have to be on guard," Ersha u
nderstood.
"Hmph, anyway, I still have a few more years to live. He'll show me what I should see eventually," Uncle Cam said.
"Of course," Ersha said.
...
Mavis, who had recovered from her shock, could no longer maintain her ladylike image!
Regardless of whether Nalin was Sulian's real girlfriend or not, she directly stepped forward, grabbed Sulian's hand, and excitedly asked for information about the thing that had flown in the sky.
What on earth was that!?
Why could it fly without the help of wind magic or other kinds of magic?
Made of metal, it was clearly equipped with magic weapons. Was it a noble "air cavalry" that could be mass-produced!?
"What's its name? What's the principle this time? It must be more complicated, right?"
"How can it fly so fast without using flying magic? Its speed is faster than that of some ordinary third-level magical beasts, isn't it? Is this the maximum speed? What's the highest it can reach?"
"And also..."
Mavis was so excited that she couldn't even speak clearly!
What were the means of transportation in this world? Carriages!
Although there were knight mechas, they were weapons of war. There was a possibility of civilianizing this thing made of a large amount of steel and metal!
It was subversive!
Absolutely subversive!
"Professor Mavis, calm down a bit," Sulian said with a faint smile.
Hmm, this is the expression, this is the look!
Sure enough, every time I see someone shocked by the tank and the plane, it's really satisfying no matter how I look at it!
As long as someone likes machinery, especially knight mechas, they definitely can't resist the temptation of tanks and planes!
Who can resist the allure of 99 and 20?
Absolutely no one!
...
"Professor Mavis, how did you feel about the tank? Are you interested in joining us?" Ersha came up and asked at this time.
"Ah! I'm sorry, Your Highness Prince Ersha! I... I lost my composure," Mavis apologized with a slightly red face.
She secretly glanced at Nalin beside Sulian. As a 12-year-old girl, Nalin was more composed than herself, which made her feel even more ashamed.
"Let me state my attitude first. I, Mavis Halifax, am willing to join your military industrial research institute, Your Highness Prince Ersha!"
"Originally, just this tank might have made me consider and weigh the pros and cons. After all, this is a weapon of war."
"But..."
"That thing in the sky!"
"Please, let me join the manufacturing and research and development of that thing in the sky! We can discuss the employment fee and other things. As long as you let me join, other things are not a problem!"
Mavis had no hesitation left at all!
Would she be involved in the war launched by Prince Ersha in the future? Would she be in danger because of it?
Completely! There's no need to consider that!
The weapon in front of her!
This new invention that could change the situation and had an absolutely innovative idea was enough for her to stay here regardless of everything!
