Uma Musume Girl, I'll tell you about my Santa Hat special move too?

That is her current idol—Stardust Illusion.

A few days ago, Good Opera happened to see a videotape brought to her home by a guest. It contained footage of the competition between Stardust Illusion and seven other contestants, including The Great Tree Express, as well as her subsequent appearance on the winner's stage.

After just one viewing, a great opera is completely captivated.

This racehorse girl constantly asserts her presence, whether in the race or on the winner's stage.

This feeling of being the only one who matters is so cool!!!

Good Opera wished she could jump off the field right now and talk to the runner about her feelings, but she knew she couldn't do something so crazy, so she could only suppress the urge and clench her fists tightly.

"Today's Stardust Illusion will surely defeat everyone, just like a king! Finally, I can watch her run live!"

The young racehorse girl held onto the railing with her hands, her feet dangling in the air, excitedly kicking the wall in front of her, eagerly awaiting the start of the race.

However, a little girl with dark brown hair who was standing not far from her overheard her words and turned around to ask:

"Hallo~ Are you here to watch Stardust Illusion's match too?"

The family home was originally a good place to run an opera shop, and she usually accompanied her mother to receive customers from all over the country. At this moment, it could be heard that the horse racer girl's accent was a bit strange, and she probably wasn't from Japan.

However, she wasn't shy at all, and nodded directly, asking in return, "Yes! You support her too!"

"Yes!" The brown-haired racehorse smiled brightly. She jumped off the railing and walked over to the opera singer, then introduced herself: "I'm Dancing City. I came all the way back from America just to watch today's race!"

"From America?!" Good Opera exclaimed in disbelief. "That's a very far place, isn't it? I've heard my mother mention it!"

"Hmph, America is on the other side of the ocean, you know. Even by plane, it takes several hours to get here. It's exhausting!"

Seeing the admiring look in the eyes of the opera enthusiast in front of him, Dancing City felt a secret sense of satisfaction and proudly shared his experience of flying with his little friend.

"Oh! The sea!"

The opera singer excitedly exclaimed, "That must be too tiring! I feel so bored when I go out in my mom's car!"

"What can I do? After seeing the video my sister sent, I was captivated by Stardust Illusion's running style... I can't suppress that feeling for even a second, I have to see it in person to relieve it!"

"Yes, yes, I totally understand how you feel!"

Seeing that the girl from Dancing City was a Stardust Fantasy fan just like herself, Good Opera was even happier and quickly shared her feelings:

"Just like you, I was completely captivated the first time I saw that video. It's hard for anyone not to be drawn in by her running style! I especially loved watching the Stardust Illusion style—"

At the same time, Dancing City smiled elegantly and said, "Indeed, that's why I came—to witness Lord Stardust Illusion's—"

The two spoke in unison, saying the following:

"——The last foot!"

"—The Great Escape!"

"?"X2

The two friends, who had just become close because of their shared idol, looked at each other in disbelief, as if they couldn't believe that the words the other was saying were different from their own.

"It's clearly the last one that's more crucial! It left the Tree Express behind! The last one in Stardust Illusion is the one everyone should love the most!"

Good opera begins first.

With a look of surprise, she suddenly reached out and pointed at the little girl standing next to her, loudly declaring her opinion.

However, Dancing City showed no agreement whatsoever.

She shook her head, crossed her arms like a little adult, and answered:

"That's why children just don't understand and can't grasp the charm of the Great Escape—the Great Escape of Stardust Illusion, that kind of all-encompassing power that forces all opponents to completely collapse their pace and rhythm, is the weapon that truly allows her to seize victory."

Good Opera wanted to refute this, but she wasn't a racehorse girl studying at Central Teresen Academy, and her interest in this matter was only recent.

At this moment, the dancing city was using a lot of technical jargon, which was giving her a real headache.

But good opera isn't one to be trifled with, and she immediately retorted: "The one who calls others children is the one who's a child, tsk tsk!"

As he spoke, Good Opera made a face at the dancing city in front of him, looking mocking.

"What?! You!"

Having grown up in the United States, she had never seen such a trick before, and the people she usually interacted with were always very polite.

Forget making faces, even a slight loss of composure requires a sincere apology to the other party.

"You, you, you heretic! I'm not talking to someone like you who can't even understand Lord Stardust Illusion!"

Even if they wanted to yell at the other person, Dancing City couldn't find any particularly offensive words.

In the end, she could only stomp her feet in anger and turn around to run back to her original spot.

Once he jumped back onto the railing, Dancing City hummed a loud hum for the opera, then turned his head back to focus on the competition.

"Haha! You lost!"

Good Opera, hands on hips, triumphantly declared its victory.

Just then, the host's voice came from beside both of them:

Alright! Now we can see that all the racehorse girls are basically ready, and everyone has entered the gates and is waiting to begin!

The highly anticipated Japan-France match has finally begun, and all the players are ready...

Upon hearing this, Good Opera immediately jumped up from where it was, gripping the railing tightly between its arms and body for support, while leaning out as far as it could, staring intently at the stardust illusion inside Gate 7...

"It's coming, it's coming, it's coming!" she whispered nervously.

Although good opera singers may not know much about the intricacies of running, they understand that a good start is very important.

At this moment, her palms began to sweat, fearing that the Stardust Illusion might malfunction or something similar.

【preparation!】

The 15 female racehorses bowed their heads simultaneously, their muscles compressed to their limits like springs.

beep.

--boom!

As the whistle signaling the start of the race sounded, the gates in front of everyone burst open with a roar.

These fifteen figures, brimming with fighting spirit and momentum, began their battle the moment they stepped out of the starting line!

Chapter 74 The Maginot Line, as Solid as a Rock!

Is this what a race feels like?!

Thinking this, Zhuo Fu excitedly rushed out of the gate.

Her petite frame naturally experiences less wind resistance when running, and her speed is her primary advantage.

At this moment, Zhuo Fu was completely unaffected by the unfamiliar high-speed grass field, speeding on the outermost edge of the group, ready to overtake the others at any moment.

This was the first time Zofu had officially stood on the racetrack to compete against others. Originally, she wanted to have a chat with Stardust Illusion before the race, but there were seven or eight racehorse girls between them in the starting positions.

Zhuo Fu had no choice but to abandon that thought and devote herself entirely to the match.

Although she had no competition experience, she had been taught by her older sisters how to judge running patterns during a race.

Although the current racer hierarchy is not yet clear, it can be felt that at least half of the female racehorses are preparing to accelerate to try and take the lead or the first place.

So even Stardust Illusion didn't intend to flee in this kind of competition...?

After all, it was a 2400m race, and Zhuo Fu was well aware that many of her opponents would face significant endurance pressure in this race, and choosing to flee would undoubtedly be suicidal.

Out of a sense of overall consideration, even if they don't change their own running style, everyone will try to use the wake of others to make themselves less energetic.

As you can see, the noble families are hidden among the horse racing girls, clearly indicating that they do not intend to exert their strength in the early stages.

The two Japanese racehorse girls have begun to control their speed, gradually falling to the very back of the pack, most likely intending to use a chasing tactic.

The remaining competitors are mostly early runners who are conserving their energy in various ways to mitigate the impact of the heavy race.

The figure of Stardust Illusion has also disappeared for the time being. Could it be that she also wants to use the advance running method?

Having thought this through, Zhuo Fu shook off the chaotic thoughts in her mind. At this moment, she was not bothered by the distance or the venue at all.

From a young age, Zoe ran through the streets of the poorest areas of France.

The track there is not only in complicated conditions, but also impossible to maintain in rainy or snowy weather.

Therefore, the tracks she has run on are often much worse than the muddy ground beneath her feet.

So, the competition venue wasn't nearly as difficult as my previous practice areas?!

This French runner, who had already achieved the ability to leave almost no trace in the snow, realized his true strength for the first time.

She grew rapidly as she ran, each step making her body lighter, as if she were beginning to break free from the constraints of gravity, almost feeling as if she could fly into the sky.

So happy! It's so great to be able to run so freely on the competition field—what is that!?

Zhuo Fu, who had just closed her eyes to enjoy the race, suddenly felt a chill on her back. She quickly opened her eyes and turned around, only to find herself face to face with the racehorse girl rushing towards her.

I'll kill you!

A pure, savage beastly will emanated from those blood-red eyes.

The stardust phantom that broke out from the main force showed no intention of controlling its speed.

She sprinted along the outermost edge of the track and closed in on Zhuo Fu in just a few breaths!

Zhuo Fu only had time to see the stardust illusion clearly before her eyes were filled with confusion. She was immediately overwhelmed by this aura and lost her rhythm. Her body slowed down and she fell directly to the back.

"Stardust Illusion? Does it mean they're planning to escape in this kind of competition?!"

----------

[Counter-clockwise rotation, activate!]

[Focus, activate!]

Solidification, or laying the foundation.

This skill is an essential acceleration technique for escaping horses, giving you a powerful ability to seize the initiative.

In the game Stardust Illusion's previous life, it can be said that every escaped horse player needed this skill.

However, while this skill is powerful, there are rather demanding conditions to enjoy its power: you need to activate all three skills at the start of the match.

Of course, even if it's not at the start of the race, but rather during the first three waves, the three skills can still be used. However, if they are not activated at the start, the benefits of this skill are reduced indefinitely.
