Chapter 8, Unfathomable Enemies
In terms of the current standard of living, the personal transportation device "Thunder" gifted to Lu Yinan by his mother is only worth 500 international currency units. Of course, the level of Chu You's vehicle, the Supersonic Overlord, is several tiers higher, with a price exceeding several hundred thousand international currency units. Even though Lu Yinan has officially started working, he would still be unable to afford it within a year.
Upon arriving at the Army Training Camp of the 54th Group Army, everyone briefly organized themselves before beginning the distribution of necessities and accommodations. Each battalion was also required to gather its members together for a speech by the battalion commander, after which they would familiarize themselves with the barracks. This process concluded around 4 PM, allowing everyone some free time.
Shaolin and Lu Yinan have a good relationship here, and they are currently sitting together and chatting casually
Just as Lu Yinan was about to inquire, he saw Shao Lin carrying luggage that was twice his size, and he immediately understood the purpose of his visit, unable to suppress a laugh.
Lu Yinan's efforts in recent days have not been in vain, as his combat power has increased significantly. Although he has not yet reached the deeper stage of the second-level fusion, he is already much stronger than most people. His energy control has also become quite proficient
After leaving Chu You's home, due to personal habits, Lu Yi Nan directly soared into the sky. Not in a hurry to return home, he began to float at an altitude of 10,000 meters, no longer moving.
Lu Yinan, I have heard that there are interstellar security forces stationed near this base. Is it possible for foreign girls to live there as well, so that I can get to know a few of them
Shao Lin, you ... ... '
Cough, you two are the graduates of this session, right? If you need to report, follow me.
Four, there are four people. Upon noticing the number of attackers and seeing their attire, isn't that the standard military uniform of special forces? I just joined the training camp, there's no way I would provoke them into action. It's not like I violated any international conventions; do I have that kind of ability and opportunity?
With tears almost falling, Lu Yinan suppressed his laughter and said: "It is precisely because we share the same suffering that we feel happy."
Lu Yinan checked the information he had just entered into Zhihuo, "I am assigned to the 3rd Infantry Battalion, which is almost entirely composed of students from the Nanhua School District, so we are not together."
In any case, the cause of the matter is not entirely my fault. After explaining this to his conscience, Lu Yinan quickly left the scene
In an instant, he accelerated, came to a sudden stop, then took a step back, exhaling as he evaded attacks from both sides. However, he sensed someone stealthily closing in behind him. With a muffled thud, Lu Yinan exchanged a punch with the person behind him and stepped back.
Once all the procedures are completed and the materials have been transferred to the main system of the military district, it is merely a matter of confirming the personnel, allowing the instructors to recognize each individual. Subsequently, Instructor Chen Gang led the team to depart from the 416th District via a large military transport vehicle, heading towards their future training base, the Army Training Camp of the 54th Group Army
When Lu Yinan turned around, Shao Lin had already descended from the air to the ground
Although the high-altitude air temperature is cold, humans, equipped with multiple layers of protection, can eliminate this discomfort from nature with just protective clothing
Divergent energy, if it is to be controlled, requires a single means: to bind it with powerful mental strength. After undergoing the rigorous trials of extreme mental torment, Lu Yinan's mental power has significantly increased. Even a twisted iron rod of considerable thickness poses no problem. However, due to insufficient proficiency in its application, his control over the outward dispersion of energy has remained less than ideal
Although he did not know what matters the Governor Dong Tingbi would have to discuss with him upon his arrival, Lu Yinan still had to obey. After responding with "Yes!" he dismissed the captain and turned to find the highest-ranking officer of the base
Hahahahahaha ... ...
Recently, Lu Yinan has been accumulating a substantial amount of energy, as the energy required by the biological parasitic beasts is not derived from human food. The supplementation of ecological energy can only rely on external sources. Although the biological parasitic beasts themselves can also store a large amount of energy, how this energy is utilized is significantly related to the degree of integration with each individual.
Turning around, he left with two young boys, not in the mood to address his brother's embarrassing actions
Lu Yinan is currently very fond of this ethereal feeling, gazing at the distant city lights and the bustling scene below. With a snap of his fingers, a beam of light shoots down from the sky, gradually dissipating after several hundred meters, the expanding energy impact appearing as beautiful as fireworks.
Although Lu Yinan, who has spent these days working, did not enjoy the leisurely vacation he had anticipated, his situation is still quite satisfactory. His relationships with colleagues in the company remain generally harmonious. He has also learned a considerable amount of design concepts, participated in a company project, and received a reward from the company, in addition to his internship compensation. Seeing an additional 28,000 international currency units in the bank system, a sense of pride in being self-sufficient naturally arose in Lu Yinan's heart
Just as Lu Yinan was about to raise his hand to salute, a sudden change occurred with a chilling sound of wind rising from both sides: 'Someone is attacking me.' At the same moment this thought crossed his mind, Lu Yinan's body also reacted swiftly
More than a month has passed in a blur, and Lu Yinan has received notification to report to the 54th Group Army, where he will complete a one-year military service at an army training camp under the 54th Group Army
As soon as Lu Yinan had some leisure time, he prepared to go find Shao Lin. However, he had not walked far from the library when he was called by the captain of the Third Brigade, "Lu Yinan! There is something that requires you to report to Commander Dong Tingbi at the Army Training Camp."
The optimal state of the light prism should be the ability to maintain energy without loss within a distance of one thousand meters to be considered a successful cultivation. However, Lu Yinan can at most maintain lethality only within fifty meters. Beyond that, it is merely akin to setting off fireworks.
After several days of training, Lu Yinan's launch beam finger has become increasingly powerful, and its speed has also improved. This is why he has recently needed to accumulate a large amount of energy. His daily consumption is twenty times that of an ordinary person. Fortunately, biological energy is not expensive, and Lu Yinan can still afford it
However, someone finally could not hold back any longer
In a state of deep concentration, Lu Yinan did not anticipate any danger. At an altitude exceeding 10,000 meters, human presence is rare. Even if there were others, it is unlikely they would disturb Lu Yinan. For young people, easily forgetting their past actions is a significant flaw.
As I observed, there was not a single orange ray of light, all were fine and straight. It was evident that my mental control had strengthened once again, bringing me considerable joy.
The Great Illumination Network, invoking the most dazzling technique of the Prism. Lu Yinan instantly unleashed hundreds of sharp orange beams, interweaving and entangling. A comprehensive, indiscriminate, and aimless barrage in all directions, 360 degrees.
Lu Yinan is no exception; before integrating with the biological parasitic beast, his favorite was still the super dynamic magnetic shoes on his feet. They are convenient for controlling direction and are fast. However, when it comes to flying and floating in the sky, the athletic super dynamic magnetic shoes are not capable of fulfilling that role
It is me, what were you doing that day? What happened to Xiao You? Hurry up and tell me
Lu Yinan heard that this time there are eight school districts' trainees receiving training at this base, with more than 1,300 participants. Which unit are you assigned to
This morning, Lu Yinan finished his internship at the company and greeted his colleagues. He is currently organizing his belongings with his mother in preparation to report to the 54th Group Army.
The quick-witted Lu Yinan immediately recalled who this person was, "Aren't you the handsome guy who was on Sister Chu You's balcony that day, holding a bouquet of roses?"
The wryly smiling Lu Yinan said: "Even by that time, the energy reserves of the biological parasitic beasts will be sufficient for three to four years. These few cans of compressed energy are almost enough for me to live for a hundred years."
The prismatic technique chosen by Lu Yinan is of moderate power, but its activation speed is the fastest among all the martial arts collections of the Sanxi Hall. It is precisely this aspect that attracted Lu Yinan to focus on training in this skill
The reactions of the two boys on one side were different, yet both were at a loss for words. Shao Lin had not yet grasped what had happened, while Lu Yi Nan was on the verge of bursting into laughter, struggling to contain himself to the point of stomach pain, and had no time to answer the question
Oh, you rascal, what are you laughing at? You brought just as much, so don't mock others when you're in the same boat.
Every night, launching a few thousand light beams has become a mandatory course for Lu Yinan to increase proficiency
Before entering here, all the information will be input into the intelligence core of the biological parasitic beast, and the military camp's map is essential information. Therefore, Lu Yinan quickly found the person he was looking for
The gathering that day with Zhang Yali did not leave any adverse aftereffects, except for the fact that Chu Ci and Peng Dawei had come to look for Zhang Yali a few times, and since they had shared meals together, they had also become somewhat familiar with each other. Overall, the month of working has been quite satisfactory.
Deer Yinan and Shao Lin, along with their peers, proceeded according to the established procedures. In this session, the 416 District had a total of 68 trainees participating in the Chinese military, all of whom were to undergo training together. Typically, they were all within the same district, and while they were mostly unfamiliar with one another, they had become somewhat acquainted, thus not entirely strangers. When gathered together, everyone engaged in conversation and laughter.
Moreover, from the actions of these four individuals, Lu Yinan does not perceive much danger.
You are the person who was in Xiao You's room that day, I cannot be mistaken
Fortunately, his anti-gravity flight device was equipped with two fixed straps. In the unexpected situation, he had not yet had the time to activate the power of the other personal flying device. The automatic rescue function of the flying device typically only activates when the owner experiences a stall. Therefore, the entity that appeared before Lu Yinan was quite shocking to him.
As they walked past Guo Luyinan and Shao Lin, a casually dressed individual inadvertently glanced at the two of them and suddenly shouted, "It's you." Then, fixing a piercing gaze on Guo Luyinan, their eyes turned red as if filled with deep-seated hatred.
Who said that these several cans of compressed energy must be brought along? In case of being trapped somewhere, they can provide support for a longer duration. Once a biological parasitic beast is present, if one enters an environment unsuitable for humans, metabolism will be forcibly halted, and the body will switch to the life support system of the parasitic beast, which will consume a large amount of energy. It is better to be prepared than to be caught unawares
Mother, you don't need to be so busy; I don't need those things.
It is evident that an arm cannot outmuscle a thigh, so no matter how much Lu Yinan protested, he was still burdened with the luggage pressed down by his mother. After all, this young man has plenty of strength, and a little more weight is still manageable for him
After all, not everyone enjoys engaging in idle disputes; the public's entertainment is still largely focused on formal sports activities
Lu Yinan's first reaction was not to consider what was happening, but to activate the energy shield. This kind of device is quite different from a standard energy shield, but in personal combat, it is still more effective than having none at all
The two individuals, still unaware of what has transpired, find themselves somewhat at a loss.
Standing awkwardly at the entrance of the office set up by the 54th Group Army in the 416th District, Li Yinan struggled with luggage that was three to four times his size. Each year, dozens of students from various districts aim to enter the military, each with different purposes. However, most seek to avoid taking time off for military training in the future. It is better to get through this hurdle all at once, ensuring a more relaxed holiday later on. Therefore, temporary military offices are established in the districts during this time.
At this meeting, Lu Yinan was gradually feeling excited. After many days of training, the results were remarkable. The range of the light beam was becoming increasingly distant, and its intensity was also growing more resilient. The youth, who had not developed a sense of crisis in a peaceful life, was completely unaware of someone approaching.
Looking at the senior officer before him, Lu Yinan was filled with confusion: "Brigadier General? This seems to be a rank higher than that of the highest commander of this army battalion, doesn't it?"
I know you? Lu Yinan did not believe that he would have any enmity with this person. At a glance, they appeared to be over twenty years old, and it was unlikely that they would have any connection with someone who had just stepped into society like himself
Lu Yinan, someone was calling for him from a distance
I have assigned several members from the 6th Infantry Battalion to our school district
Indeed, I decided to serve as a soldier for a year precisely to become more masculine. After this, it will be easier to find a girlfriend
Chen Gang is a lieutenant from the 54th Group Army, responsible for the reception work in the 416th School District this time. He mentioned that he took the opportunity to visit home as well. His younger brother, Chen Shuai, insisted on seeing him off, but unexpectedly, this led to such a humorous incident.
The understanding of the saying "joy begets sorrow" can be considered one such instance. Lu Yinan's indiscriminate, aimless light beam just happened to strike a hapless soul who was about to launch a surprise attack
The shot struck the man's chest squarely. Although the distance was considerable and the force was insufficient to cause any harm, it fortuitously severed one of the straps of his anti-gravity flight device. This caused the man to flip over, leaving him suspended in the air with his feet pointing straight up.
Debate has no chance to emerge in the face of brute force. Fortunately, the opponent only engaged in physical combat and did not use any weapons; otherwise, Lu Yinan would have surrendered long ago and submitted to their whims.
Furthermore, you could adjust your tone a bit; refrain from using that catchphrase "dead ghost". No wonder Wang Xu dislikes you
Although feeling extremely angry, Chen Shuai realized that this was not the time to challenge Lu Yinan to a duel. Aware that what he was doing was quite embarrassing, he watched Lu Yinan leave with Chen Gang and then left the temporary office on his own.
This type of magnetic propulsion transport vehicle, known as the www.hetushu.com.com model, is manufactured by the first transportation tool factory in Wudong City, which is the workplace of Lu Yinan's parents. Although Shao Lin and Lu Yinan rarely ride this mode of transportation, they are not unfamiliar with it. This large vehicle can accommodate two hundred people at once, making it quite spacious inside.
Dead ghost, I won't talk to you anymore
Although Yu Yong is capable of making a living, after years of struggling in social life, he naturally has no interest in exercising. His understanding of combat is still at the stage where he believes that courage and ambition alone are sufficient to enter the arena
The man, who had been hanging in the sky, could no longer endure and abandoned the so-called decorum, starting to curse loudly
He knows that his precious younger brother has been pursuing a girl for a long time, and he is also acquainted with Chu You. Indeed, she is a very beautiful woman, and she has more than just his brother as a suitor. However, one could argue that this has nothing to do with the students he is about to recruit. Just look at how young these two children are.
Thus, Lu Yinan activated the anti-gravity flight device, which is the personal flying device used by most people. It has a shape similar to that of a disc and is secured to the back with straps. Since it can be worn under clothing and provides a more comfortable flying experience, the propulsion felt from the back is easier to control for balance compared to devices that only provide support from beneath the feet.
Just now, that unfortunate fellow, invigorated, was searching for Lu Yinan without success. By chance, he noticed the continuous expansion of the energy shockwave above him, which naturally led to a scene of 'enemies meeting, particularly intense.'
For safety reasons, modern individuals do not have much confidence in personal flying devices. Generally, users do not carry just one flying device. Additionally, with the implantation of bio-parasitic creatures, most people tend to have two or three devices. This ensures that if one flying device malfunctions, there are backups available to maintain operation, preventing a catastrophic fall that could result in severe injury.
The two individuals engaged in conversation did not notice the emergence of two people from the office of the 54th Group Army located in the 416th School District, one dressed in military uniform and the other in casual attire, both of whom were quite young
Shaolin, please don't make me laugh. Others say you have a feminine side, but your actions are very manly. There is no need to find a girlfriend to prove that you are a man
Upon hearing Shao Lin's usual catchphrase, Lu Yinan rolled his eyes, pretended to faint, and ceased to speak.
Oh no! Trouble has arisen. When faced with an unfavorable situation, it is understandable for one to flee, and it cannot be said that Lu Yinan is at fault. After all, he has been here for quite some time, and most people are aware that they should not approach. Although the other party's intentions are unclear, they have already encountered someone unfriendly. Lu Yinan believes that greeting and apologizing would only be a humiliation for himself. He has already given that person a good beating before. Now, he has almost caused an accident again. Therefore, it is impossible to simply let the matter rest with an apology. This is just as well, as it saves him the trouble.
