Chapter 371 - : The Test Race, and the Course Details (1/2)
In a Different World with a Smartphone Chapter 371: The Test Race, and the Course Details
“The course would be one round around Dracliff Island It’s fine to add various obstacles, instead of ht?”
“Since there’s also a part of this race that’s about testing the capabilities of the ether vehicles Things likethem run on bad road conditions, and others”
Or rather, the part about testing is supposed to be the h, the race portion is beco more important…
In order to be able to record various data, the professor would handle the designing of the race course I’ement, but I can’t make a satisfactory course that would fulfill our needs anyway
The course design is being projected on a lance, it looks like a pretty normal course, but…
“Why is there a split path here?”
“A shortcut, obviously If the driver goes at it well, it’ll cut away a lot of the track for hi for him”
“And this part here that’s cut off in thedistance isn’t enough, the vehicle would obviously fall”
“Isn’t this part above the ocean…”
“Oh, the pier area? It’s the place where you would never want to go out of the course, eh”
…Is this really alright? I once again sternly reo overboard
I was curious about how they would go about constructing the course on Dracliff Island in the Reverse World; apparently, they would transfer the [Mini Workshop]s that were used to s like Frame Gear-use bullets over and use those to h they don’t have the sainal, it’s not like they’ll be used tolike that, so it’s fine, or so they told n for the thing you asked me~”
The door to the lab opened, and Dr Elka walked in followed by the wolf-type golem, Fenrir
My unease only increased when I heard she’s participating in the course design too…
“In any case, do it with safety as the top priority Please don’t let so like a crash happen and make the participants sustain heavy injuries, okay?”
“It’s fine, it’s fine Even if the vehicle breaks into a million pieces, I’ll le scratch Believe in your lover, hrinning professor behind and walked out of the [Laboratory]
When Isoes together with the [Workshop] er, Rosetta, and the mini robots
“Oh, it’s you, Master Sorry, but could you pass me that wrench there?”
I passed the wrench on the nearby work bench to Monica, who used it to tighten a few bolts on the wheel she’s facing, before breathing out with a fuu Rosetta thento confire, several skeletal chassis without any outer layers, and with their ines completely exposed, sat side by side Those are all ether vehicles, each with different characteristics
“You doing well?”
“Well, yeah This is nothing compared to Frame Gears We can probably make it in time even if we only use a bit of our free time to do this What about the professor’s side?”
“Making some weird course”
“We’ll make an ether vehicle that can finish any kind of weird course they throw at it-de ariripping a spanner in her hands, Rosetta uts pose with a snort
These tould be participating in the race this tiory, as opposed to the professor’s group who’s the course designers I wonder if the weird sense of rivalry they’re feeling against the professors is due to their pride as fellow technicians?
While it’s not so I wrote into the rules for the race, the two of the their vehicles
It’ll be e engineer in both worlds can make Well, the ether liquid that’s used as fuel is another story, though
“The dwarves down below are ht? We can’t lose”
The dwarves that ” would be participating in this race too
While I’ what kind of ether vehicle their unique expertise would be able to create, their finished ould be running on the courselike an early retire happens
Also, our headtechnique is quite soood data for us too
And then there’s the [Red Cats] chief, Nia, who kinda forced her way into a registration Even if she’s the holder of the red [Crown], she probably won’t be able to act recklessly in an ether vehicle Even if she did, there’s just going to be the vice-chief, Est-san’s scolding afterwards, so it’s her own responsibility
The ether vehicles of the above two participants would also be made by Rosetta and Monica Since it see vehicles, it should be alright
As for national participants besides Trihalan and Strain, there’s the Surface World’s Magic Kingdo as one of its areas of expertise, and it had already begun shi+fting its attention onto the ether vehicle since a while back; e talked about the race, they quickly signed up
Although there’s also a part of ht it’d be more fun with more participants, thein the race would increase the data we can collect Having said that, I hesitated quite a bit when I heard the driver would be His Majesty the Ferzen King in person
The ether vehicle piloted by the king, who’s athe weapons of heroes even though he’s at the top of the Magic Kingdo like a du various unease like that, the day of the test race steadily approached
Well, while theether vehicles is ie candidates would acknowledge and make peace with each other with this
When I called their parents and asked about their conditions, the two of the hard on their ether vehicles to the point of forsaking sleep Are they really alright?
The skies, where the roars of dragons can be heard echoing frole cloud There’s no wind, and the seas are calm; it’s the perfect day for a race
For today’s test race, which is around Dracliff Island, I’ve ordered the dragons not to attack the huons, there seemed to be quite a feho are interested in the race itself Well, I’ as they don’t cause any disturbances
As usual, I called out Valkyries and e monitor at the beach from where we can watch the race
Everyone else besides the drivers would be able to spectate the race from here
Now then, it’s time to introduce the participants
Number 1: [Steel Axe]
Driver: Griff
The chief of the dwarven workshop group, Griff would be driving The y, the [Steel Axe]
Number 2: [Silver Star]
Driver: Rosetta & Monica
The ether vehicle ar] er, Monica They also serve as its drivers The two of theether
Number 3: [White Bird]
Driver: Lapis
The ether vehicle piloted by Brunhild’s venerable head maid, Lapis-san The vehicle itself is made by Rosetta and Monica
Number 4: [Red Cat]
Driver: Nia
The chief of the [Red Cats], Nia’s vehicle It’s also made by Rosetta and Monica
Number 5: [Strain]
Driver: Berlietta
The princess of Strain Kingdom, Berlietta’s self-made ether vehicle, hich she is personally participating
Number 6: [Trihalan]
Driver: Rupheus
The crown prince of Trihalan God-Empire, Rupheus’s self-made ether vehicle, hich he is personally participating
Nu
An ether vehicle which was produced froical prowess It’s a rather large vehicle
Number 8: [Brunhild]
Driver: Mochizuki Touya
I’ too, with a standard-type ether vehicle This one is the Renault Type K model
(Note: I held it in until the end, but why did you even give actual na to use country naht as well call the earlier vehicles the [Dwarf], the [Babylon] and the [Maid] or soht vehicles coh soe no ht now, it’s still not knohether they have any special abilities Besides, I’m one of the participants too, so it wouldn’t lance, the first to jue size Well, that one kinda feels like it was h
An overall map for the course was handed out to the drivers a few days before the race While detailed descriptions like seneral structure of the course from the material prepared
The island is split into four sections according to the cardinal directions; the course starts in the southern section, and proceeds around the island in a counter-clockwise direction for one round until the race participants reach the southern section again after traversing the western section
The explanation for the course given to me by the professors were as such:
•South: Pier Course
A course made on top of a pier constructed on the beach and over the sea
