"Oh my God, this can't be real, tell me I'm dreaming." Fat Tiger grabbed the corner of Orvis's clothes, shaking him frantically and suddenly slapped Elvis..."Bro, did you feel that?"
"A little bit, how about you?" Elvis retaliated with a slap.
"I felt it too, it seems that for the sake of brotherhood, we have to give up the entire forest —— damn it, why did you just hit me?"
"I didn't hit you."
"You did."
"I didn't."
"Silence!" Sheng Qiangwei slammed the table and turned to Xia Qi and Xia Xin, softly asking, "What's your answer?"
"Eh, us? Well, we're definitely staying here." Hearing her sister's response, Xia Qi nodded in agreement.
"Alright, that's enough for today. We'll meet again tomorrow." Sheng Qiangwei said, standing up and leaving. The term 'Sir Feng' replayed in her mind, "What does the title 'Sir Feng' mean?" Her delicate figure gradually disappeared into the Wind Thunder Business District...
Feng Yi left just a bit earlier than the others. By the time he exited the school, it was completely dark. Darting between the brilliant lights of the skyscrapers, his lightning-like figure quickly disappeared into the suburban outskirts. The tens of kilometers to his destination passed in the blink of an eye. When he arrived at the mechanic shop, there were several large and small war chariots parked outside, waiting for him, the tester, to take them for a spin.
Seeing him arrive, the receptionist finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Why are you so late, sir?"
"Something came up tonight, but the boss didn't set a specific work schedule."
"True, but take a look at this."
The receptionist gestured, following her direction, Feng Yi was stunned to see a behemoth among numerous repair vehicles.
"That's...the Red Star V24." Feng Yi's eyes narrowed.
This war chariot was born in 2287. The engineering design originated from a Huaxian genius designer, Little Kong. The most notable feature of the V24, which has a history spanning hundreds of years, is its difficulty to master, comparable even to the Shadow Rider. The V24 is equipped with a Gatling Cannon as its secondary weapon, and an impressive array of warfare technology. It boasts a turbine power system, a top speed of 700 km/h, supports rocket propulsion at 3x speed, and rapid jumps.
Feng Yi's military expertise runs deep; he naturally understood what the V24 represents. Although the Shadow District was chaotic with a complex mix of people, it was quite audacious to have this beast repaired overtly in an underground shop.
It takes a special kind of person to handle the V24. Its savage acceleration would deter most testers. Mounting it was akin to riding a fierce tiger. Feng Yi circled the war chariot a few times before asking, "Can I climb up now?"
"You can at any time. Don't you want to do some warm-up exercises, Mr. Feng?"
"No need, my body can barely withstand this load. Let's use the computer to test if there are any anomalies."
"Wait a moment." The system scanned and revealed an ice-layer thickness of 2mm with no further anomalies detected.
"Alright."
With the runway lit up, and a roar of the engine, the gleaming tail light of the V24 shot out like a raging bullet or a wild horse, whistling and disappearing...
The chariot's speed was increasing, until minutes later it finally reached peak speed. Occasionally, it would navigate through under-bridge pylons, or emerge like a phantom in the snowy landscape. To test its overall performance, Feng Yi had to perform frequency changes, sharp jumps, and manipulate the control panel so much that his hands were leaving after-images. Cold sweat seeped from his forehead.
Frankly, the speed of this war chariot would be hard for an average combat machine to keep up with. Any slip-up could result in being thrown off or the car rolling over, which would be quite challenging to handle given his physical condition. Feng Yi found it unlikely that the original owner could easily control it. Conversely, the possibility was quite small. However, as a tester, he had to push the chariot to its limit.
Under such high-speed conditions, perhaps even the hit rate of the elite Red Cloak shooters would not be more than 70%.
The service girl was aghast at what she was seeing on the monitor. She couldn't believe her eyes...what kind of skill level was this? A civilian tester typically just went through the motions. During the process, it was hard to avoid some influence, achieving 70-80% of performance was already quite satisfactory. After all, this was a dangerous job, and these weren't military model tests, so the scene before her was almost unbelievable.
In a short while, the war chariot slowly stopped in front of the repair shop. When he descended from the chariot, Feng Yi, drenched in a heavy sweat, and with bruised hands, collapsed into the snow, panting heavily...
"Sir, you are amazing! Aren't you nervous driving so fast?"
"Nervous? A bit, yeah. Well, this chariot doesn't have many problems, the propulsion device can't reach its peak performance, probably because the sudden change device failed leading to inadequate energy output. The bearings also have a minor problem, the rear steering wheel operates slowly, I suspect it's caused by aging, so change it please."
"Oh, okay." The service girl looked a bit dazed. Usually, the tester would point out the key points and then the mechanic would take over. But now, this tester can actually point out the problems, "Sir, are you also a mechanic?"
"I wouldn't go that far, I just know the basics." Feng Yi waved his hand. He didn't come here to interact with cute girls. Earning some extra money was one aspect, but what was important was that among the various scrap materials, he was trying to assemble something he was interested in.
He had explained to the boss before that as long as he finished the work, the rest of the time was his to control. Going forward, he could completely use the remaining time to arrange training for tomorrow.
This really was a tough task. Physical fitness was one of the essential qualities that a student must possess, and he couldn't find an effective way to enhance the quality of the students in a short time. To improve their qualities, first, it was necessary to exercise the student's personal willpower.
While Feng Yi was quickly sorting through various discarded parts with both hands, a variety of effective plans to quickly enhance his qualities flashed through his mind, yet, he found himself at a loss.
Yes, there are no shortcuts to perseverance. First, he had to correct the students' positive attitude from the root. Only with a correct attitude could they truly take the first step. Although they had boundless enthusiasm for military life, harsh training would become an invisible barrier in front of them. They wanted to leap over this barrier, which seemed simple, yet would also be challenging.
Pressure can often serve as motivation, competition inspires progress, and only through hard work can they harvest results. Changing a student's attitude was too difficult, and he didn't have the bargaining chips to do so. Only proactive motivated students were what he was really hoping for. With his encouragement, a small stimulus could bear the fruit of a big change in a student's future.
With these thoughts, Feng Yi realized he had found his answer. As a simulated robot was assembled, he tossed the modified model that was assembled from various parts into the Space Crystal.
