I'm in the Ark, a player.

After Kal'tsit finished speaking, she opened the door and saw Qin Tianling out.

"Oh, they're out."

Outside, Exusiai waved to Qin Tianling and asked with some curiosity,

"Why did you stay inside for so long? What did Dr. Kal'tsit say to you?"

"She just said a bunch of random things out of the blue, and after it was over I didn't know what she was saying. I just felt like Kal'tsit was breathing on me."

Qin Tianling stroked his chin and replied,

I think I just inexplicably entered a scene where the cat-eared doctor kept panting.

Logically speaking, someone with such a strong Hagen should be eliminated.

However, her being a beast-eared girl and her good looks effectively compensated for the negative effect of her breathy breath, and since she didn't actually fight,

Therefore, Qin Tianling believed that things should not happen more than three times.

I don't know if this guy realized that it would be impolite to keep breathing on him, but he suddenly stopped breathing on him and instead sent Qin Tianling out.

"Oh right, she said the machine is broken and she can't do the physical exam, let's continue shopping."

"That's fine."

After saying that, Exusiai led Qin Tianling to the next area.

As you walk through the medical department corridor, the smell of disinfectant gradually fades, replaced by the aroma of coffee and the faint electronic sounds of game consoles.

Rhodes Island's rest area resembled a small plaza, with several casual shops lining both sides. Operators gathered in small groups around tables and chairs, chatting, playing cards, and drinking beverages.

In the center of the rest area, a large screen was playing an advertisement:

"Are you all ready!?"

The new round of bench skating competition is about to begin!

—The Second Rhode Island Round Stool Battle Racing—SBR Grand Prix!!!

In the center of the screen, a black-haired blood demon stood with one fist raised in front of him, speaking passionately.

"The race starts at the lowest level of Rhodes Island's warehouse area and ends at the highest deck."

This is the first time in human history that a race has been held with people sitting on the original benches across the entire island of Rhodes!

This SBR Grand Prix is ​​destined to be a competition that no one in the world has ever experienced before!

The winner will receive a reward of 50,000 LMD, as well as the Kroos Dream Scroll!

Registration is available at the Cloosir Purchasing Department. Come and register!

You might just be the one to win the prize!

"I didn't expect that there would be special activities to do when I came to Rhodes Island at this time!"

Qin Tianling, are you planning to give it a try?

Exusiai pointed to the advertisement on the screen and asked Qin Tianling, who was standing next to her,

But there was no response.

"Qintianling?"

"Qintianling!?"

Exusiai turned her head, unaware that Qin Tianling's men had long since disappeared.

the other side,

Corosil Purchasing Department

Behind the purchasing department counter, Closie was busy organizing a pile of parts lists.

Suddenly a voice rang out.

"I want to participate!"

Loud and energetic.

"Are you registering for the SBR Grand Prix?"

Kroos raised her head, her gaze gradually moving upwards until the face of the black-haired youth came into view.

Is this an operator I've never seen before, someone who just arrived on the island?

Kroos was deep in thought when the black-haired figure grinned, revealing a harmless and radiant smile.

"Twist~ Roar~!"

-----------

After reviewing the plot, I discovered that Prissis had issued a prohibition against Kal'tsit, preventing her from revealing Prissis's existence. Therefore, what appeared to be Kal'tsit's questioning in the previous chapter has now been changed to her thoughts.

Chapter 123, Hehe, I must win!

round stool

This is a common small chair.

The round, black, soft cushion is filled with foam, and a sturdy metal rod connects to five small casters underneath. There's also a height-adjustable lever nearby.

This was also the vehicle used in the second annual Rhodes Island Bench Slide Race.

"So, Exusiai, you signed up for that bench gliding competition too?"

Croissant crossed her arms and looked helplessly at Exusiai and Qin Tianling, who were already sitting on round stools and sliding down the corridor.

Exusiai glided in front of Croissant and stopped with her foot.

"Because Qin Tianling suddenly disappeared, I thought he had gotten lost for some reason. I searched for a long time before I finally found him registering at Kroos."

Plus, this thing is really fun, so I signed up for it too.

Exusiai looked at Croissant and Texas.

"Do you want to join us?"

"I don't want to, it feels like a waste of time."

"What about Texas?"

"No, I'm not interested."

"Hey... are you really not coming?"

I actually thought this thing was really interesting!

Exusiai puffed out her cheeks and muttered in dissatisfaction.

Is this interesting?

I think it's a bit childish.

Croissant complained, looking quite puzzled.

"Croissant, are you awake?!"

How could this be considered childish! What a fun game!

Exusiai gripped the edge of the stool cushion with both hands, leaned forward, and protested to Croissant.

"Is it fun?"

I find it pretty boring. Is that all there is to bench racing?

It's supposed to be a speed contest, but it really feels like a contest of who pushes off the ground the fastest and who has the most power.

"—Don't underestimate bench racing!"

Exusiai held up a finger and wagged it at Croissant.

"Although you can slide by sitting on the round stool and pushing off with your legs, if you push too hard, you are prone to tipping over while sliding. If you push too hard, you will not have enough speed. You still need some skill!"

"You agree, right, Qin Tianling?!"

"Ok?"

Qin Tianling, who had been called upon, turned to look at Exusiai, and after a moment's thought, he replied as follows.

All I can say is, practice makes perfect.

"?"

Exusiai's expression froze instantly, and almost the next second she turned to look at Qin Tianling in disbelief.

"Not a buddy!?"

"As a fellow registered contestant, shouldn't you be standing here with me?"

Why aren't you speaking up for me?

"But competition comes first, friendship second, and there can only be one champion!"

Qin Tianling met her gaze, his tone matter-of-fact.

"We are the opponents!"

The moment we signed up, we were already rivals, Exusiai!

Qin Tianling is very persistent about winning and losing.

It's not that playing games is about being obsessed with winning or losing; it's because he received a mission when he signed up.

[Mission: The Wild Bench Rider]

[Summary: The second annual Rhode Island Bench Sliding Contest has begun.]

If you have any doubts, then don't register.

When you believe you can win the championship, your body should take action, eliminate other opponents, and seize the championship!

Goal – Win the SBR Grand Prix!

Go! Go! Go! Go!

[Rewards: Based on ranking]

Since the rewards are based on ranking,

Then,

I absolutely have to win!

Time quickly came to the day of the competition.

The starting positions were determined by drawing lots. A huge group of people sat on round benches, crowded in front of the starting line.

Kroos's voice kept ringing out over the loudspeaker.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the SBR competition venue. I am Kroos, the sponsor and host of this year's competition."

I'm sure everyone wants to take this opportunity to make a fortune. After making a fortune, wouldn't you like to buy a new phone?

What should you do with your old phone after you get a new one?

—If you want to offer a good price, go to the purchasing department of Clooney!

For quality goods and great deals, come to the Clooch Purchasing Department!

Exusiai sat on the left side of the starting line, making a final check. She looked up, her gaze passing over a dozen heads, and landed on Qin Tianling at the other end of the starting line. Her eyes showed some doubt, but she quickly shook her head and looked down at the round stool beneath her.

"Okay, let's turn our live broadcast focus to the competition venue."

We can see that there are many participants, including some strong competitors from the previous competition, such as Logos, the champion of the first round bench skating competition, and Scout, the runner-up.

Of course, there are also many new faces. How many dark horses will emerge from among them?
