Mixed Blessing System

When Lothur revealed the kart to the people in that hall, Frederik immediately jumped out of his seat and ran to that item.

Seeing the final product he had helped to develop, he could not stand still and soon stood next to the kart, trying to make sense of this thing.

That was similar to what he imagined it would look like considering his imagination of how the constructed parts would fit together. But there were a few differences here and there, and what\'s more, seeing something finished was very different from imagining what an item would look like after the final production phase.

\'So this is what it looks like? Seeing it this way, it looks like something promising!\' He saw the small steering wheel there and felt curious about how this thing would move.

Other people besides Frederik also got up from their seats, looking in surprise at that item, but for different reasons.

Lothur\'s three women in that place were curious to see that vehicle move. Meanwhile, the formations masters in the area could sense many formations on it, noting that such a thing could not be a fraud.

Whether it worked or not, they would still find out. But already at this instant, they realized that there was an intricate structure behind this special vehicle called a car.

The Morning Star Academy principal was also curious since, even though he was not a formations master, he was the most capable of analyzing such a thing. Thus, while observing Lothur\'s project, he was curious to see such a thing working.

Lothur noticed that some of his guests were surprised by Frederik\'s movement and smiled. "This is Frederik Calis, a young carpenter who helped me produce most of the parts of this prototype."

"Oh?"

"This young man did such a thing?"

"Unbelievable!"

"Hmm, even if we cannot say for sure the value of this \'car,\' we cannot deny that the carpentry work on it was very well done."

Several people there commented among themselves about how talented Frederik must be in terms of carpentry.

Considering that no one there knew this young man before this occasion, these guests were quite surprised at the partner Lothur had found.

"So, how does that work?" Rebecca asked as she also stood, interested to see that item working.

Lothur smiled and was quick to remove Frederik from near that vehicle and then get inside it. "I will show you..."

Lothur had notified the management of the hippodrome regarding his interest in using a \'carriage\' inside that hall to access the racing area of that property.

Therefore, that location had access to his area of interest. All he had to do was open the doors on one side of that hall for him to be able to drive his kart there.

"Well, driving this vehicle is simple." Lothur began to explain after settling into that kart and drawing some laughter from Elke and Annaliese. "This is just a prototype, so don\'t think our final cars will be as simple or uncomfortable as this one."

"But the logic will be the same." He then pressed a button next to the steering wheel and said. "This vehicle works from spiritual energy instead of the motor power of animals or other beings."

"So this vehicle has a device that continuously absorbs spiritual energy from the surroundings and stores it for future spending. Then, you will not have to worry about giving the command for part of the vehicle to do that work."

"But there is a limit to how many kilometers you can drive with a car, considering the charge of the device, the spiritual energy addition factor, and, of course, the consumption."

After these words of his, the vehicle began to emit noise from the rear, where Lothur had chosen to place the engine of it.

All the people following his words kept looking at that thing with interest, all standing up, full of curiosity.

Lothur then explained. "This button I just pressed is to turn on and off the engine responsible for the driving force of this vehicle. After you press it, just follow these steps..."

He then began to show those people the brake, accelerator, and clutch pedals.

Unfortunately, Lothur did not know how to make a model with automatic transmission, so he went with the idea of a manual one anyway.

After showing these people the pedals and how they worked, he explained the gearshift, parking brake, steering wheel, and mirrors.

He gave these people an introduction to the essential items in a typical land car, enough for these cultivators to know what they needed to get started.

Since everyone there, except for Frederik, had high cultivation comprehension, it was not difficult for them to learn Lothur\'s driving instruction manual in just 30 minutes of explanation.

After this introductory presentation, Lothur finally did what everyone had been anxiously waiting for.

He released the parking brake, put the gearshift into first gear, and slowly released the clutch.

Upon doing so, the kart began to move slowly at first. Still, when Lothur began to press the accelerator with his right foot, such a vehicle began to move faster and faster.

"WOW!"

"It really can move fast!"

"Unbelievable!"

"Has he managed to solve the problems of independent animal power carriages?"

The people in that hall went from there to the outside of the building they were in, where they could see the entire horse racing track.

To them, it was phenomenal to see something like that, capable of carrying a cultivator like Lothur with such speed.

It must be said that cultivators were not low-weight beings. No, as one\'s body quality increased, it was as if the density of every fiber in their body increased as well.

So someone with a body as powerful as Lothur\'s could not be light. That\'s why those people were impressed by the kart in question since it could have so much speed and still carry so much weight at once!

"It truly is off the charts..." The academy principal stood next to the other people watching Lothur doing a fast lap.

He was only going 50 kilometers per hour. Still, considering that carriages of this world could rarely get close to that, this was already an awe-inspiring speed for these people.

As they watched Lothur and talked about it, this young man was enjoying himself as he had done very few times in this world.

Lothur had loved to drive when he was on Earth. So to have the chance to do this in this world was not trivial to him.

That was enough to make his blood churn a little and make him feel good.

"Hehehe, not bad." He shouted as he drove as if in a street race, something he had only done in simulators in his past life.

But even though he was in a different body, Lothur\'s senses were better than ever, and he did very well in this first demonstration of his vehicle.

He drove only two laps until he decided to stop and use his strategy to win over the people in that group of spectators.
