Infinite Terror: Infinite Reversal

Chapter 531 Training Base?

"I brought you here today in the hope that you can catch up with the progress here as soon as possible." As soon as Alexei stepped onto the ground, a waiting guard came forward and draped a coat over him. "Come on, after you finish entering your information and move into your dormitories, take a look around the base... and wait to do your morning exercises with them."

Mu Xiang shrugged and followed.

This arrangement was more about form than substance, just like that military overcoat... it signified status, not because Alexei was genuinely cold. After all, bringing his chosen trainees ahead of time meant the training schedules on both sides wouldn't align; one less day wouldn't make a difference, and one more day wouldn't make a difference either.

Alexei's plan was probably to let Mu Xiang and the others make their debut as the general's newly chosen students... Once they demonstrated their abilities, it would be easier for them to get along here.

Mu Xiang had already overheard Alexei sending a message to Alexander through his bodyguard. Alexander was probably still asleep at this time, which showed that the old man really valued them.

"Can you hear what he's saying?" Mu Xiang asked. He was walking behind Alexei, but it was Zheng Zha who received the voice.

"I can hear it, but definitely not as clearly as you can," Zheng Zha said. "By the way, such a heavy snowstorm hasn't affected you, has it?"

Mu Xiang scoffed, "Isn't it obvious? Even if your hearing isn't as good as mine, you can force yourself to concentrate using the gene lock, and you won't be bothered by the wind and snow here, right?"

Only after leaving Zhang Jie did they realize how convenient it was to have such a mental controller by their side... Now that they have neither Zhang Jie's mental connection nor any mental chains from any mental controller, it has become much more difficult to have a silent conversation.

An alternative method is the legendary "sound compression into a line"... compressing a person's voice into a linear shape and then transmitting it to the receiver at a fixed point. Mu Xiang and Zheng Zha both know this trick, and in fact, most people in the Main God Space with genetic locks and attributes can do it if they are willing to put their minds to it.

But this method is actually useless. In terms of convenience and confidentiality, it is not as good as mental power. It can be said to be a last resort... Here, it is just bullying the people in the world of "Mechanical Dragon".

"Stay close, your biometrics haven't been registered yet, you can only enter with my permissions," Alexei reminded him without turning around.

As the highest level of authority of the Allied Mechanical Dragon system was loaded, Mu Xiang and his companions followed the old man through a heavy alloy door.

Mu Xiang frowned. He could feel countless tangible and intangible scanning rays darting between them, and the walls of the passage leading into the base were densely packed with all kinds of laser weapons!
Zheng Zha and Zhao Yingkong both sensed something to some extent, but they were generally aware of the situation. As for Luo Gandao, he had no idea what kind of murderous aura he was surrounded by, his face full of anticipation and curiosity.

Let's not tell him... This was the consensus that Mu Xiang and Zheng Zha silently reached.

Over the past few days, especially watching Logandao's combat training, Zheng Zha discovered that this kid was somewhat similar to himself... in that he was easily stressed. If he were to tell him the truth, Logandao's reaction would probably be no better than Zheng Zha's in the laser corridor. The safety passage surrounding the base was divided into countless sections. After walking for a short while, Alexei slapped the wall, creating an exit, and then signaled for everyone to follow.

Luo Gandao couldn't help but glance at the seemingly endless safety passage ahead. This base was simply enormous, dwarfing even the Eastern Front base. The safety passage encircling the base had almost no curves, truly an eye-opener for him.

"It must be so much fun riding a motorcycle in here, right?" Mu Xiang's voice rang in Luo Gandao's ears, and Luo Gandao couldn't help but laugh. Then, as if he remembered something, he slightly suppressed his smile... Although it wasn't as exaggerated as before, it seemed a bit fake now.

Emerging from the safety passage, a breathtaking view unfolded... A steel dome enveloped the entire base, yet there was no hint of darkness. Countless optical channels channeled the internal nuclear power light into the steel dome, which, while obscuring the sun and moon, provided a source of light that was closer and warmer than the sun and moon themselves.

It was still late at night in the Central Federal District. If it were daytime, the natural light from the outside world would be gathered by the optical channels, making the dome even brighter.

Logandao, however, did not focus his attention on the enormous dome. For a moment, he didn't know where to look... Directly in front of him stood rows of mechs, each one a genuine, professional mech, not a training machine! These countless mechs were parked in the distance, stretching for an unknown distance from where Logandao could see.

“The Central Federal District base, strictly speaking, isn’t a training base,” Alexei said, stopping as the four looked around. “This place isn’t training cadets, but rather the Allied Forces’ finest mechanical dragons. If you still see yourselves as cadets, the end result will inevitably be returning to your own training base and continuing as cadets, understand?”

After a long silence, Mu Xiang and the other three finally nodded. He cursed inwardly, "Why are you three all mute? Is this awkward silence something I have to do?" But since there was no mind-locking now, he could only swallow his words.

"This is the headquarters of the Allied Mech Dragons, right?" Mu Xiang pushed up his glasses. "Then it's not surprising that they've concentrated their mechs here as well."

Alexei smiled faintly: "No, the mechs you see are just... the tip of the iceberg. In your language, you would say that the mechs are produced and assembled in other areas, and this is only a part of what is supplied to the core area."

Mu Xiang naturally knew that his eyesight was enough to see through this core area and then into the outer production and assembly areas. However, there had to be a way to start a conversation, and since the old general was willing to speak, he would let him say as much as he wanted.

Alexei casually introduced some areas and facilities to them, then strode forward. The four of them, not wanting to fall behind, chatted as they made their way to their destination.

It was a heavily guarded room where anyone entering information had to enter and undergo a full scan again... Although Mu Xiang suspected there was also a counter-espionage consideration involved, the main purpose was probably still the overall biometric information entry.

Although the process was tedious, the four of them encountered no problems. After recording the information, Alexei went to his office first, while the four of them were guided directly to their new dormitories.
