Magic Mech Wars Steel Torrent-Chapter 77 The Speech in Posio District

The day of the speech finally arrived.

The magic-powered vehicle transporting Sulian's latest Canglan SK knight mecha set off from the port of Peter's Holy Territory in the early morning.

This knight mecha would be disguised as a new mecha custom-ordered and purchased from the Angying United Kingdom, serving as a twelfth birthday gift for Sulian Lendel, the grandson of Prince Ersha.

If the kingdom were to know that Ersha and his people had the ability to manufacture a fifth-level Douqi (qi energy) mecha on their own, regardless of whether the main magic core and alchemical materials were imported, it would be regarded as a threat. Because Ersha was now very wealthy, extremely w

ealthy!

If they could manufacture the first fifth-level mecha on their own, it meant that they at least had the possibility of mass-producing first-level mechas.

...

Posio District.

The capital city of the district — Berglo.

This city was adjacent to the territorial city of Duke Alfred — Al.

At the same time, the territory of Al was also close to the Black Dariu Mountains. The entire area was relatively flat, and there were two small rivers formed by the converging streams in the mountains. The entire territory was very prosperous in agriculture. The only slightly troublesome thing migh

t be the occasional magical beasts that would emerge from the mountains.

The main purpose of Ersha and Sulian's visit this time was to bring the technology of the plowing machine during their agricultural reform.

At the same time, they would attract the common people who had nowhere to go after the agricultural reform in the territory of Al to work in Peter's Holy Territory with high salaries and benefits, and expand their own commercial operations!

At this moment, on the high platform built in the square.

With a slight tremor of the ground!

"It's here!"

"Wow! What a handsome new knight. With this slender design and dual swords, it should be a Douqi mecha, right?"

"Your information is so poor! This is a fifth-level Douqi knight mecha custom-ordered by Prince Ersha for his only grandson, Lendel, from the distant Angying United Kingdom!"

"Is he that rich? Ordering it directly from abroad?"

"Hey! Isn't it because our kingdom has been stable for too long? Prince Ersha no longer looks favorably on the mechas manufactured by the Knight Research Institute. The Angying United Kingdom is adjacent to the goblin country, and its technological strength is top-notch!"

Everyone immediately started discussing the new knight mecha, which was also the result that Sulian and the others wanted.

This new mecha represented the financial strength and new prestige of Prince Ersha's forces. Therefore, during this public speech, Sulian must drive it here to serve as a symbol of prestige!

Especially at this moment, people from many forces were keeping an eye on it.

...

In the various streets not far away, in the high-rise buildings where one could overlook this place and hear the speech, such as restaurants, clothing stores, and so on.

For the forces of the kingdom:

"What do you think of Prince Ersha's new knight mecha?"

"The rumbling sound of the magic core has been processed, and it's impossible to tell which model it is. Surprisingly, the outer armor metal is all made of lightweight Yingyi metal. Although it can significantly reduce the load, the defensive performance will be much worse."

"Does it look like a product of the Angying United Kingdom?"

"It's impossible to determine. The Angying United Kingdom, which is adjacent to the Afa Empire, is too far away. Except for the merchant caravans transported by sea, we have had no contact with them."

...

For the forces of the chamber of commerce:

"The alchemical metal consumed by this new knight mecha should be at the Sersic (sixth-level) level, right?"

"As expected, it's to show prestige. He can actually directly customize such a mecha!"

"It seems that Prince Ersha has great plans for this public speech and the subsequent cooperation."

...

For the noble forces:

"Tsk! This Ersha is really arrogant."

"Hmph! He's so extravagant as to give such an ostentatious gift for his grandson's twelfth birthday. Why doesn't he get himself a Shem (seventh-level) magic knight mecha?"

"He'd better get one, so that we have a reason to petition the king!"

...

Many people were keeping an eye on this place.

Even though there were deliberate attempts to hide, the mental power that locked onto the square was still clearly detected by Ersha, a powerful Magic God-level mage.

On the surface, Ersha still smiled and greeted the surrounding people, while in his heart, he was quickly distinguishing these mental powers.

These familiar feelings...

It seemed that many old acquaintances had come, whether it was his elder brother or people from other ennobled noble forces.

They had become more sensitive to all of our subsequent actions. They must have all kinds of suspicions about my cooperation with Duke Alfred this time.

But it's also good. After today, I can more clearly distinguish which guys are worthy of our support and which ones need to be suppressed with all our might! Only by ensuring the stability within the kingdom will it not hinder our subsequent plans.

After strengthening his inner thoughts, Ersha floated out from the carriage and came to the high platform where Duke Alfred had already stood.

Sulian himself was also driving the Canglan SK, standing beside the high platform in a standby state. He would maintain the rumbling of the magic core throughout the process, so that everyone would have this unique "background sound" while listening to Ersha's speech.

However, before that, he, who was already wearing a nobleman's dress and a pair of elegant glasses, also came out from the cockpit behind and stood on the shoulder of the Canglan SK, smiling and greeting everyone.

"Wow! Is that really Prince Ersha's grandson? He looks so cute."

"He has silver hair. He looks so elegant. It's a pity he's not a mage."

"At this age... I wish he would take a fancy to my daughter."

The attention of the people was quickly drawn to Sulian who appeared on the shoulder of the Canglan SK.

With Ersha's fame, his only grandson naturally also received a great deal of attention. Unfortunately, the information that the outside world could find about him seemed to be nothing more than the word "ordinary". He was just an ordinary high-level warrior who liked to tinker with machinery.

But even so, he was still a target that many people wanted to get close to, and a target for those who wanted to send their daughters to his side.

...

"You're really popular. I wonder how many people will bring their daughters to meet you at tonight's banquet."

In the cockpit, Nalin, while curiously looking at the operation interface in front of her, communicated with Sulian using a special communication magic.

"Otherwise, why would I have taken the initiative to ask you to come? You refused to help me deal with the problem of Zuo Sandi at the academy. At least you have to help me fend off some social interactions tonight." Sulian maintained his smile towards the people and replied.

"It doesn't matter if I deal with it for one night, but if you stay completely single, you can take the opportunity to win over many nobles, right? Although you'll break up with them in less than two years, it should be very useful before that." Nalin asked curiously.

For the royal family and nobles, in terms of diplomacy or making connections, an unmarried descendant is always one of the excellent bargaining chips.

"I don't need to. The nobles with daughters of the right age who are worthy of being won over have already been screened in advance. The rest are just useless trash," Sulian replied indifferently.

"Wow, he really lives up to the reputation of being a playboy prince. He has actually screened through noble girls even though he's only twelve years old," Nalin said again.

Sulian was already used to her like this.

"Besides, do you think that for us, who will be a national-level force in the future, the single status of the only grandson of mine is more useful than being used in the power struggles among the powerful and noble forces of the small Kingdom of Aivisu now?" Sulian stated the most core reason.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Smart Sulian, you're always right." Nalin had also learned Sulian's way of "yes, yes, you're right".

But soon, her tone became serious.

"Shall we activate the mental power scanning mode now?" Nalin asked.

"Yeah. Just letting Grandpa know who those guys are and then having him relay it to me definitely isn't as practical as me knowing directly. Besides, I really want to know the expressions on their faces when they sense the mental scanning device equipped on my Canglan SK. It must be very interesting

," Sulian said in a somewhat playful tone.

"Then at maximum power, start!" Nalin pressed the button in front of her.

A powerful mental scanning ability that ordinary people couldn't sense spread out from the Canglan SK knight mecha!

Suddenly!

The people from the forces hidden everywhere around immediately showed various expressions of surprise! ?

...

Their gazes then gathered on Sulian on the shoulder of the Canglan SK.

In response to them, Sulian made a gesture of spreading his palm and gently pushing his glasses with his middle finger, which could hide the smile on his face.

It was as if he was saying, trying to hide? I can still find you even if you hide!

This was...

A provocation from Prince Ersha's twelve-year-old grandson!

...

"Hahaha! This Lendel is so interesting. I like him, hahaha!" Caroline, dressed in ordinary clothes, laughed in a coffee shop on the street.

"Won't he be a bit too ostentatious like this?" Walker was a bit worried.

"Huh? Isn't that even better?" Caroline laughed even more heartily.

Walker was taken aback but quickly understood.

If most people thought that Sulian was actually an ostentatious and arrogant playboy relying on the power and influence of his grandfather, Prince Ersha, that was exactly the result Sulian wanted the most!

Wasn't it what they most wanted to see that the only descendant's ability was questionable?

"He's not only openly provoking them, but he also won't get himself into an unfavorable situation. It's just like slapping those guys in the face while staying completely unharmed. It feels so great!" Caroline showed a toothy smile, looking very rough.

Walker could only force a smile beside him.

He clearly knew what he was here for today, following the on-vacation Caroline.

He just hoped that it wouldn't lead to too terrible a result.

...

The speech process went smoothly.

The five upgraded plowing machines, which were also transported by magic-powered vehicles, were unanimously praised by the nobles and manor owners present. In the future, the orders for plowing machines from Ersha's "Magic-powered Vehicle Factory" would surely keep pouring in from all over the Kingd

om of Aivisu!

By then, Sulian and the others could take this opportunity to purchase more steel from abroad by sea!

Just as Ersha once said, their magic-powered vehicle factory was just relatively large. So it wasn't excessive to consume a bit more steel, right?

As long as Ersha didn't purchase a large amount of alchemical metal or raw materials required for manufacturing knight mechas, the theory that Prince Ersha was a threat couldn't hold!

All of this was also within Sulian and the others' plan!
