"Yo! Old Fante is still adjusting!"

As soon as he pushed the door and walked in, Cervantes turned into a happy appearance again, and he didn't know where he had been thrown away from his previous impassionedness.

Old Fante, who wore a pair of reading glasses, looked up and glanced at them.

"Wait a little longer!" he said nonchalantly.

"Well, I'll show them then!" Cervantes replied.

Needless to say, Cervantes said that the clergy had already begun to look at this place.

Although he had said before that he should not see anything else except where he allowed it, otherwise he would bear the consequences, but he brought them here, so he didn't need to worry about it at all.

A ...... 'car' with two wheels at the front and rear?

I'm sorry, but they really didn't see any 'new era' symbolized by this ...... 'car'.

Cervantes turned his head to look at it, then smiled: "Old Fante, do you know what I just told them?"

"I don't care about this!"

Old Fante pushed his reading glasses with his wrist and didn't raise his head.

"I told them it was a 'symbol of the new age,' but they don't seem to believe it right now......"

Old Vant took a deep breath, put down the wrench and screwdriver he used to adjust the brakes, patted his trouser leg, and stood up from the ground.

Although he was still a little hunched over, Old Vant had tried to straighten his waist as much as possible.

He looked at the young priests who were at a loss for what to do, and asked flatly, "Tell me, young man, do you really think so?"

The young priests stared at each other blankly, and they all saw the intolerance and struggle in each other's eyes.

They saw so many two-wheelers here, and they felt the persistence and fanaticism of the old man, Cervantes told them that it was a 'symbol of the new age', and they really didn't believe it, as priests, their faith also told them not to lie, but they couldn't bear to let the old man be hurt.

“...... Yes!"

Eventually, a young paladin spoke bitterly, "We don't think of this as a 'symbol of the new age'......"

The other young men's mouths opened slightly, but their voices were choked in their throats, and they couldn't say a word.

Looking at the young paladin, a faint smile suddenly appeared on Old Fante's face, "Young man, you guys are doing a good job. It's a good thing that you follow your heart very well and don't intend to deceive me, but how do you know that this is not a 'symbol of the new era'? You only look at it a few times, but you never get to know it deeply, how do you know that this is not? As a young person, you are not experienced enough, and your mind is a little impetuous, which is understandable, but you have made a big mistake -- to judge things by appearance! This is not advisable. ”

"My lord, can you help me get this—" Old Vant, clapping the saddle of the most complete bicycle under his hand, "move to the proving ground? Fore and Turgenev are there, and I'm going to show these young men the 'Power of the New Age.'" ”

"Of course!" said the black dragon happily, "I am very happy!"

............

"Who are they?" asked a sturdy middle-aged man with monocles, squinting his eyes as he looked at the study group following Cervantes.

Cervantes said with a smile: "They came to us from Lorandal to visit and study, and the young people don't believe that the bicycle is a symbol of the coming of a new era, so the old Vant asked me to bring this one here to show them what is called 'the power of the new era'." ”

The middle-aged man Turgenev raised his eyebrows, "Hey, this is really ......"

Turgenev and Forte in Laboratory Twelfth are both middle-aged, and only Old Fante is an old man, but as a scholar who studies mechanical creation, Old Fante has more accumulation than the other two, so he has studied the blueprint drawn by the maid most thoroughly, and now the bicycle that Cervantes is carrying on his shoulder is Lao Fante's treasure, let alone taking it out and looking at it, even if Turgenev and Fort take it for reference.

Cervantes looked left and right, "Where's Faure?"

"It's coming, it's coming!" Fore panted and squeezed from behind the clerics.

Unlike Turgenev, Faure was a pale, thin middle-aged man, with a pair of thick round-rimmed glasses and a thick book in his arms, squeezed from behind the young man, and looked obsessively at the bicycle that Cervantes was carrying on his shoulder, "Wow, old Fante is willing to take this out......"

Syllable!

"Don't touch!" said Old Fante with a cold face.

"Hehe, old Fante, anyway, you must have to let people ride it, let me see why it doesn't work......"

The young people all looked a little strange, because they saw a middle-aged man who didn't look very good...... I don't know where to start with this feeling, in short, seeing this scene, they have mixed feelings.

"Shut up, how many bikes have you dismantled me! Even if Turgenev can touch it, you don't want to touch it!" Old Vant remembered what had happened before, and his face turned blue in an instant.

"Really?" Turgenev was pleasantly surprised.

"Fake!" said Old Vant, glaring at Turgenev with an unkind face.

"Shh

Cervantes put his bicycle in the proving ground, turned around and shouted, "Which of you will explain it! Didn't you say that you would show them the 'power of the new age'?"

After hearing the call of his lord, Old Vant closed his mouth and said to the young people, "Come with me!"

Bishop Pelonandi bowed slightly to the young men, then stood still and did not follow.

"The 'New Era'...... What is it?" Bishop Pelonandi asked Turgenev, who was standing beside him, and Fore had already walked behind the young men.

Turgenev looked the old man up and down, he looked like an ordinary old man next door, but among the group of young people in the study group, he stood out.

"Mechanical!"

Without much thought, Turgenev said categorically: "The power of machinery will open a new era! I don't know if the lord has taken you to the foundry to have a look, maybe you don't know that we mortals without any power have been able to use 'machinery' to do things that were completely impossible before." And have you noticed old Fante's precious bicycle? Especially the chain, although with a little magical power, it is really something that is produced on an assembly line. ”

Bishop Pelonandi looked over and the old Vant was explaining his precious bicycle to the young people.

“...... A bicycle is a complex machine composed of multiple simple machines, with springs under the saddle, brakes on the front wheels, chains, pedals, sprockets and other components to form the transmission system of the bicycle. ”

With that, Old Fante stepped on the bicycle and twisted in circles in the field, making people very worried about whether he would fall off the car, after all, Old Fante was already so old.

Old Vant rode very slowly, a little faster than the average person walked, but when he got out of the car and kicked off the stand, the young people realized that Old Vant was not tired, but ruddy.

This surprised them, Old Fante had at least circled around the edge of the field about ten times, and an old man of his age, even if he was just walking slowly, he should be gasping for breath after walking ten laps, after all, Old Fante was just an ordinary person.

"Because I'm an ordinary person, I don't have any special strength, I don't have a strong body, I don't have magical magic, I don't have subtle skills, but I have enough knowledge. ”

Old Vant touched the saddle of the bicycle and sighed: "Although this bicycle was made under the guidance of the maid, I also built it by myself. Ordinary people like us can do things that we couldn't have imagined in the past with the power of 'machinery', and that's the 'power of the new era', and after that, the bicycle is a new type of transportation, and after that, we will continue to develop more other types of transportation - vehicles that can be mass-produced and popularized, and vehicles that even ordinary people can easily use. These vehicles do not bring the two territories closer together, but they do allow them to communicate with each other in a shorter time...... So, the bicycle also symbolizes the 'new era', and now, you get it?"

"A new era is coming!"

Or ...... It's here, but you don't feel it. ”

The young people looked at the smiling old Fante in amazement......

A 'new era' has arrived...... Is it so?
