Chapter 221 Custom Weapons?

Kaiyu returned in the evening.

boom!
Snapped!
Thor stopped the stopwatch: "1 hour and 55 minutes!"

Kaiyu looked exhausted; after wading back into the cage, he almost collapsed.

"Who wants to leave next?"

After the remaining five people discussed it for a while, Zheng Tiannan stepped out of the cage.

Kaiyumu reminded him, "I noted the location on my way back; Swan Lake is roughly at the ten o'clock position!"

"it is good!"

In this way, all the contestants took turns going out, getting a gun, and then coming back to rescue the next person.

The assessment finally ended late at night.

Although those who set off at night seem to be at a disadvantage, those who come back bring back useful information, and by the end they have even figured out the exact location, making it actually easier.

After the last contestant finished shooting, Thor had everyone come ashore and announced the selection results.

Of the 48 people, nearly half were eliminated.

Xu Ge discovered from the elimination list that all of these people had taken more than three hours.

The contestants stood on the shore, soaking wet, swaying unsteadily, unable to even maintain the most basic military posture.

"Do you think the reason you were eliminated is because you took too long?" Thor asked, standing at the front and looking at the crowd.

The contestants were somewhat confused. Wasn't that the case?

Thor glanced down at the list: "Ma Ming took three and a half hours, and he wasn't eliminated. Do you know why? Because he was actively searching for his way back the whole time!"

"Drones monitor the entire process from above. When each person sets off from here, the guide will tell you to come back as soon as possible to rescue your comrades."

“Some of you have a strong sense of direction and can get back quickly, while others are slow or even stray from the right path. It doesn’t matter.”

"But if you choose to rest on the way and don't even think about coming back as soon as possible, then I'm sorry, Sirius doesn't need teammates like that!"

The eliminated contestants looked regretful.

We had already reached the final step, but this is the result.

Next, the clips took away all the eliminated contestants, while the remaining 20-plus people were given soap and clean clothes.

Boxes of food and water were brought over.

"The water quality here is actually quite good. Everyone go take a shower, eat something, and then get in the car and go back to sleep." Thor laughed. "Congratulations on being selected for Sirius!"

The contestants wanted to cheer, but found they didn't even have the strength to clap, so they could only stand there and force a dry laugh.

Thor waved his hand: "Dismissed!"

Some contestants went to eat first, while others stripped naked and jumped into the lake, yelling and venting their emotions.

Seeing that the token hadn't yet shown a notification that the challenge was complete, Xu Ge nervously approached Thor and whispered, "Am I the first place winner in this selection?"

"Cousin, are you in a hurry?"

Thor glanced at Xu Ge and said calmly, "The five groups on the 619 side haven't finished yet. The final individual events are the same. With your score, you should be fine. Don't worry."

"Thank you cousin!"

Xu Ge breathed a slight sigh of relief, drank a bottle of mineral water, and then took off his clothes and jumped into the lake.

. . .

. . .

On the way back, everyone in the carriage had already fallen asleep.

Xu Ge was woken up in a daze, got out of the car in a daze, and then lay down on the bed in a daze.

I could vaguely see the token appearing, but I didn't have time to examine it closely before I fell asleep again.

When I woke up the next day, it was already afternoon. Kaiyu was packing his bag and seemed to be in a good mood.

It makes sense, the Sirius he's been longing for has finally come in!

Li Dongshui next door was still fast asleep, his butt sticking up, drooling all over his pillow.

"Where are you going with your backpack?" Xu Ge asked, sitting up, feeling sore all over.

"Go back!" Kaiyoumu patted Li Dongshui and then said, "The people from Tianlang just came over and said that we need to gather at the gate with our backpacks at 4:30."

"what time is it now?"

It's almost four o'clock.

Xu Ge didn't rush to get up, but instead sat on the bed and summoned the token.

[Congratulations, host, on completing the C-level military order challenge. Rewards are being calculated.]

[Please select your settlement method: 1-250 Universal Skill Points, 2-5000 Universal Proficiency Points]

Sure enough, the system reward arrived!
This means that I ranked first in the overall score in this selection!

Since the previous 5000 points had already been added to physical fitness, Xu Ge had no reason to hesitate. He first added physical fitness to level 5, and then added the remaining general proficiency points to the four skills of reconnaissance, melee, shooting, and tactics.

Needless to say, reconnaissance and melee are the only two skills I have right now, and they're only at LV3. I definitely need to upgrade them to LV4 first, otherwise they'll hold me back too much.

A moment later, the data on the front of the token began to change rapidly.

front:

"Queue: LV4 (204/9999)"

"Internal Affairs: LV4 (211/9999)"

Physical Fitness: LV5 (1/99999)

"Shooting: LV4 (2232/9999)"

"Tactics: LV4 (2905/9999)"

"Combat: LV4 (1/9999)"

"Barrier: LV4 (480/9999)"

"Reconnaissance: LV4 (1/9999)"

Parachute Descent: LV4 (345/9999)

boom!
Xu Ge felt as if a tsunami had struck his mind, with countless memories and insights flooding in!

Changes are also happening inside the body; the muscles in various parts are rapidly adjusting, and there is even an itchy feeling inside the bones.

Xu Ge wondered if it was just his imagination, but he felt that the density of his bones and muscles seemed to have changed slightly.

It felt like it was contracting, yet also expanding. This sensation was unfamiliar and wonderful; I had never experienced it before!
Xu Ge remained seated, seemingly lost in thought, but in reality, he was processing the upgraded memories and adapting to the changes in his body.

This process lasted for several minutes. Li Dongshui, who was standing next to him, even got up and started packing his bag. Only then did Xu Ge gradually come to his senses.

The wartime mode button in the lower left corner is flashing, indicating that the activation count is still 1.

Let's continue looking elsewhere.

"The proficiency difference between LV5 and LV6 is a whopping 100,000?!" Xu Ge was taken aback when he saw the data in the skill panel.

It takes two C-level military orders to accumulate just 10,000 points of general proficiency. He really can't imagine what level of challenge would be needed to reach 100,000 points!

"Stop standing there in a daze, get up and pack your bags!"

Kaiyoumu urged, sitting down and pulling out half a cigarette to light it. Immediately, several contestants gathered around, all clamoring for a puff. Xu Ge felt a bit uncomfortable after getting out of bed, so he stood there and stretched.

Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa!
A series of rapid, cracking sounds from bones rang out.

The entire tent fell silent instantly, and everyone stared at him with wide eyes.

Kaiyumu, holding the cigarette butt that was now just a stub, looked on in surprise: "Were you farting just now?"

"No, his bones are cracking," Zheng Tiannan said, then looked at Xu Ge, "Damn, do you have so many blisters in your bones? Or do you have joint problems at such a young age?"

Generally speaking, the popping sound of human bones is caused by the bursting of air bubbles or the slippage of tendons, which is a normal phenomenon. However, Xu Ge's case is clearly abnormal.

Xu Ge didn't answer; he was now eager to know just how strong his physical abilities had become after reaching LV5.

"Brothers, I feel really powerful right now. Anyone want to arm wrestle with me?"

Everyone:? ? ?
What's wrong with this kid who just woke up?

Kaiyu laughed and threw away his cigarette butt: "Come on, let me, the machine gunner, test just how powerful you really are, hahaha!"

Seeing that someone was going to arm wrestle, everyone was happy to watch the show, and someone immediately found a small stool.

The two squatted down, resting their elbows on the ground. Xu Ge said confidently, "Kaiyoumu, I can let you go first... damn it!"

With a forceful push, Kaiyoumu pressed Xu Ge's arm down.

"That's it? That's boring."

Zheng Tiannan, itching to try it out, pushed Kaiyoumu away: "Come on, let me give him a go!"

Snapped!
Xu Ge suffered another crushing defeat.

"It's really not that great," Zheng Tiannan shook his head.

Xu Ge: ...

He now understands that physical fitness level is not necessarily related to strength.

Li Dongshui, who was watching from the sidelines, was itching to try, and quickly said, "Squad Leader Zheng, step aside, I'll give it a shot!"

Xu Ge was so angry he laughed. Damn it, even this guy wants to bully me?

The moment the two shook hands, Xu Ge suddenly exerted force, and Li Dongshui was thrown to the ground.

Xu Ge stood up with a dark face: "If I can't handle the two of them, I can't handle you?"

. . .

. . .

When we assembled at 4:30, Yang Shaojie came over and officially announced that the remaining 40-plus people had been selected for Tianlang. After congratulating them, he told everyone to go back, as there would be transfer orders to their respective companies.

When Xu Ge and the other two returned to the Sixth Company, it was just in time for lunch. When they learned that all three of them had been selected, there was naturally another lively discussion.

At the dinner table, Guo Yuanshuai downed a glass of mineral water in one gulp and said with a smile, "Hahaha! Great! The three of you are going to Tianlang, the other four are retiring, and after I'm promoted to sergeant major, I'll be transferred to the brigade. It's a good farewell for our Ninth Platoon!"

For some reason, everyone felt uneasy after hearing this.

Su Liujun filled Guo Yuanshuai's cup and chuckled, "Squad leader, what you're saying makes me not want to leave the army anymore. Maybe I should just transfer to the third term!"

“That’s right, we’ll have at least two third-class merits, which is enough for a third term. Then we can go to the brigade headquarters with the deputy squad leader, hahaha!” Wang Lin laughed too.

Guo Yuanshuai said irritably, "You guys are all injured. Don't end up like me, crippled before you're even forty! Let me make this clear first, I'm going to the logistics department. The squad leader definitely won't let me go to a combat unit. If you follow me, you might never even get to touch a gun again!"

“By the way, there shouldn’t be anything going on until we’re discharged, so we can go get the surgery now!” Liu Senlin suddenly said.

It's already late May, and there are less than three months left until my discharge from the military.

Several veterans immediately looked at Xu Ge: "Father Xu? Could you..."

"No problem!" Xu Ge readily agreed. "I'll contact Lin Wan after dinner."

Niu Sanxian: "My uncle is awesome! He gave birth to eight in one pregnancy!"

"roll!"

After dinner, Xu Ge returned to his dormitory and immediately sent a message to Lin Wan, who quickly called back.

The veterans didn't go to the playground to play basketball; they waited in their classrooms.

After chatting for a few minutes, Xu Ge hung up the phone and looked at everyone, saying, "Recently, leaders from the military hospital have come to inspect the area, and with the discharge of veterans approaching, beds are in short supply. Lin Wan said it would be best to go at the beginning of next month."

Guo Yuanshuai immediately nodded: "Sure, there's no rush. Please thank Xiaowan for us."

"Ok!"

"Thanks, Uncle Xu. Uncle Xu, would you like to play basketball? We'll help you grab the rebounds!" Wang Lin chuckled.

"Get out of here, all of you!" Guo Yuanshuai said irritably. "The three of them just got back, they should get some rest!"

When the squad leader said that, the veterans went out to play ball, laughing and joking.

Xu Ge and the other two started making their beds, while Guo Yuanshuai smoked and played on his phone.

"What are you doing over there, squad leader?"

"Children't Children's Day coming soon? I'll go online and see what gift I should buy for Guo Xiaobao."

"Squad leader, so you're actually the fastest gunner in our brigade? How come I've never heard you mention that before?"

After folding the blanket, Xu Ge remembered this incident and asked curiously, "It makes me feel like I was bragging to you last time..."

Actually, he has figured it out now. Since the class vice-class leader was able to teach him, isn't it normal that he himself has even greater strength?
Guo Yuanshuai didn't even look up: "Hey! That was a long time ago. I definitely can't do it now. I have to accept that I'm getting old!"

"The last time you broke a record was two years ago, okay?"

"Oh, you mean that time? That was the last time I participated in a martial arts competition. I didn't even make it into the top ten. It was quite embarrassing."

Xu Ge: ...

For a squad leader of that age to participate in the brigade's major skills competition is an astonishing feat in itself, demonstrating his genuine passion for the profession!

At this moment, Li Dongshui finished making his bed and came over with a small stool: "Deputy Squad Leader, which department did the brigade commander assign you to?"

"It's not decided yet," Guo Yuanshuai said with a laugh. "Last time my squad leader asked me where I wanted to go, and I said I wanted to go to the directly subordinate repair company, hahaha!"

Xu Ge suddenly remembered the handcrafting skills he had extracted from the squad leader, and looked at him uncertainly, "Squad leader, you're not planning to repair Lian Huohuo's weapons and equipment, are you?"

"What are you saying? I'm clearly doing research, how can I call myself 'Huo Huo'?"

Guo Yuanshuai was displeased and said in a serious tone, "Let me tell you, once you get to Tianlang, you might end up using the weapons and equipment I invented!"

"Squad leader, are you serious?" Li Dongshui also became interested.

"Of course!"

"Can I have weapons custom-made by you in the future?"

Guo Yuanshuai thumped his chest loudly: "As long as you can tell me your requirements, I can do it!"

Li Dongshui's eyes lit up: "Really? That's great!"

Xu Ge sighed, thinking, "These two, one old and one young, are really something else. One dares to boast, and the other dares to believe it."

Beep!
Luo Shan's voice came from downstairs: "Everyone, change into your physical training clothes and assemble downstairs!"

It seemed that tonight's schedule included physical training, so Xu Ge immediately stood up and started changing his clothes.

Guo Yuanshuai: "The three of you just got back, so you don't need to go. The platoon leader knows that too."

Xu Ge took out his workout clothes: "I want to go down and try it."
