"That Kitayama contestant's CAD skills are quite impressive!"
"That's a general-purpose type!"
Upon hearing what Masaki Ichijo said, Shinkuro Kichijoji also nodded.
How is that possible?
"It clearly has an aiming assist device installed on it!"
One of the girls said in disbelief.
"It's not a specialized type after all?"
"I thought it was a specialized type!"
"Yes!"
"The shape of the CAD rifle is just a design; it doesn't actually have much in common with real rifles."
"I've never heard of a general-purpose weapon system in rifle form."
"It hasn't appeared in any manufacturer's product catalog."
With Shinkuro Kichijoji's words, the people in the conference room started discussing. They had seen specialized CAD machines before, but they had never seen a general-purpose CAD machine with a aiming system like this.
"It's definitely not one sold in stores."
"However, this accident was somewhat predictable; at least we weren't completely unaware like Chiba Yeyou was."
Masaki Ichijo delivered some relatively good news.
"Yes, a magic weapon that integrates aiming assistance and general-purpose functionality does exist."
"Really?"
"It's a new technology that was unveiled in Düsseldorf last summer."
Seeing the incredulous looks on everyone else's faces, Shinkuro Kichijoji remained unmoved.
He also investigated last year's experiment.
"Is the technology from last summer already being put into practical use so early?"
The attendees looked at each other, somewhat astonished that a new technology still in the experimental stage could be put into practical use so quickly.
No!
"Actually, I only found out because I investigated this matter."
Masaki Ichijo spoke calmly, but his expression was somewhat solemn.
If his feeling about Chiba Yeyou's strength was that he was strong but still somewhat clueless, then Tatsuya Shiba's strength was something that could be traced back to something, which actually made Masaki Ichijo feel a sense of relief.
Although the current situation isn't much better.
"Well, the prototype published in Düsseldorf wasn't ready for practical use."
"Its movements are sluggish, its precision is low, and its magical operation is riddled with problems. It's truly just a 'simple assembly' product, devoid of any practical value, merely a technologically significant experimental object."
Shinkuro Kichijoji explained the information he had gathered from his research.
"But this time, the magic machine used by Kitayama, the contestant from First High School, not only possesses specialized precision and speed, but also boasts the advantages of general-purpose multi-system magic processing capabilities. If this is all achieved through the skill of the equipment mechanic..."
"It's definitely not at a high school student's level anymore."
Upon hearing Masaki Ichijo's analysis, I fell silent.
One Chiba Yeyou was enough to kill him, and now another Tatsuya Shiba...
"But!"
I believe we can still achieve victory!
The Masaki Ichijo turn of events by Ichijo Shōki almost made Shinkuro Kichijoji, who was drinking water during a tactical maneuver, spit it out.
If it were just Tatsuya Shiba, he might still have the idea to give it a try, but there's someone even more terrifying here. He still hasn't figured out the other person's original magic, " Light Energy Pulse "!
He knew magic, but he didn't know this magic.
This is truly a case of "try it and you'll die, bro!"
Do you want to hear what you're saying?
Shinkuro Kichijoji stared at Masaki Ichijo with a strange look, as if a note saying "Please begin your performance" was stuck to his forehead.
"Bang!"
"Although their maintenance engineers are powerful and might cause us trouble, I have faith in your magical abilities. We are confident we can win and break the winning streak of the First High School!"
Seeing Masaki Ichijo his hand on the table, enthusiastically boosting morale, Shinkuro Kichijoji couldn't hold back any longer.
What is Lee Jae-ho doing?
He's full of questions right now.
Although he was confident that he and Masaki Ichijo could definitely win the heavily contested "Monolith Code" event, what about the other events?
Seeing the look in Masaki Ichijo's eyes and then at the confident expressions of the contestants, he understood.
I also cheered them on.
Masaki Ichijo breathed a sigh of relief; he was helpless too.
This is like a battle on the battlefield. If morale is lost, you've already lost half the battle before even fighting. And judging from the current situation, if they are allowed to remain silent like this, who knows, the players from Third High School might put pressure on them when they face them later, causing them to make mistakes.
Masaki Ichijo is definitely more farsighted than these people. Regardless of the outcome of the match, we cannot be afraid before the battle even begins. At the very least, we must ensure that the players feel at ease going on stage and showcasing their peak performance, rather than coming on stage with a built-in debuff.
He wouldn't dare say that his CAD technology was at least two or even three generations behind others.
This is just an estimate of Tatsuya Shiba's terrifying mechanic skills.
While one mechanic can't be responsible for all the races, there are two!
Each one is more outrageous than the last!
They still have no idea who this guy named Chiba Yeyou is!
Even though the CAD software used is pretty much the same and there aren't any obvious new technological features, the other one is just so much better than ours. This really touched on Masaki Ichijo and Shinkuro Kichijoji.
From now on, any opponent with the Third High School will be a tough battle.
The main concern is that the pressure on the players might lead to mistakes that shouldn't have happened; this is Masaki Ichijo is truly worried about.
However, although their team's morale seems to have rebounded, they still need one more thing to give the players enough confidence!
Masaki Ichijo and Shinkuro Kichijoji exchanged a glance and instantly understood each other's thoughts.
Chiba Yeyou was unaware of the headaches happening at Third High School; if she had known, she would probably have just laughed it off.
He is now coming out of the venue, having parted ways with the others.
Although this area is a military-controlled zone, a considerable portion has actually been opened to the public due to the Nine Schools Competition. However, you rarely see soldiers on the road; you only see one or two officers occasionally.
Speaking of which, the nights in this military-controlled area do have a unique charm. Perhaps it's because I've been living in the city for too long. Although Chiba Yeyou's home is considered to be in the suburbs, it's still very different from the military-controlled area. Although the facilities here are complete, much of the original character has been preserved.
As Chiba Yeyou walked along the path, the occasional bird calls echoed from the trees on both sides, and the rustling of leaves was a soothing sound.
The air is much fresher. Although there are quite a few vehicles here, it's nothing compared to the amount of pollution in the city.
"Why!"
Such environments are becoming increasingly rare!
Chiba Yeyou stretched comfortably, preparing to go back to rest.
As Chiba Yeyou walked, she suddenly frowned, then a cold smile appeared on her lips.
"Interesting!"
