Bob De Quatre Posted August 2, 2015 Location: H06 Farmolis Tags: vehicle, land vehicle Today is my day off, and I decided to take Danielle with me on a tour to Farmolis beach. Well that's what I told her, but the fact is I was asked by my coworker to take her away so that they could have a day off... Sure Danielle is a little bit tense these days. She didn't invented or made a discovery in weeks, while on the other hand a M.A.N.T.I.S. scientist keeps publishing astonishing breakthrough in various fields. Maybe some fresh air will help her I thought, so I agreed to take her with me. Since Jacques LaRose needed to go to Farmolis for some kind of meeting (he wasn't very specific when I asked), he proposed to lend me his car, a nice looking vintage Jaguar XS-97 hovercar! That car is a legend among the luxury cars, and of course very expensive, but that's not a problem for Jacques... Produced to only 158 copies by Octan Corporation in 3627, under an old brand Octan acquired long ago, the XS-97 is famous for its natural leather interior. The leather used came from the last herd of wild cows on Earth, that Octan bought for a tremendous amount of credits. Those wild cows were the one children heard about in old stories from the old past. They were the original cows, unaltered by humans, genetically pure, with no modification whatsoever. They didn't even had grow the 5th stabilizer leg! Octan led them to a remote genetic facility and modified their DNA so that their hide would grow in the shape of car seats. Only 158 survived the process and lived to the expected size. That's why that car is so precious. All other cars made after this one have use modern materials like synthetic leather or space-sheep, space-sheep, SPACE-SHEEP wool. Having that car in my hand made me nervous. I hope I won't scratch the seat... Hopefully the beach is near to Central City, and we arrived there quite quickly. There we encountered a ferocious beast, but as I faced the creature bravely, Danielle only wanted to get one more experiment subject. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
