บท 75: Increased Training
Qin Fen watched these drill instructors talk about old times. It didn't look like they were going to stop chatting anytime soon, so Qin Fen coughed and said, "Excuse me, are lessons over for today?"
"Lessons are over! How can we teach when Phoenix is here?" Squad Leader Hao waved his hand. "You can just beat it and go rest."
"Really?" Qin Fen looked at Squad Leader Hao with some uncertainty. This instructor taught trickery. Only God knew whether or not the words that popped out of his mouth were true or false.
Squad Leader Hao's eyes bulged as he said, "Of course it's true!"
"Oh."
Qin Fen sat his butt to the ground, gently adjusting his breathing and circulating true energy within his body. The Raging Berserker Tide was of a fighting style that consumed considerable combat power. Even Qin Fen, with his powerful and muscular body, would feel a bit of fatigue after stopping the attack.
Squad Leader Hao's eyes stared wide, while everyone else began to laugh. This Qin Fen was really not an idiot. When faced with the words of Squad Leader Hao, which could all bbe correct no matter them being truth or lies, Qin Fen had simply chosen to believe superficially. He sat his but on the ground to rest, confronting Squad Leader Hao's words, just in case Squad Leader Hao would yell him to halt and say he got tricked were he to walk away.
"Interesting...." Squad Leader Hao chuckled as he rubbed his nose. "Though this kid isn't as sharp as his brother, who was able to beat me at my own game and trick me in turn, his move counters changes through staticness. It contains a bit of the air of a general or admiral."
"Old Hao, about how you slandered my looks in front of Qin Fen a moment ago. Should we just let it go between us?"
Phoenix was in a good mood, causing her craziness to immediately reappear. Her fist techniques delved deeply into the essence of the snake form. Though her attack power wasn't the strongest when doing battle against those on the same level, she was the best at constricting people, as well as the most vicious. Those constricted by her would feel absolute pain.
"Hey, Phoenix, I was the one who found this kid." Squad Leader Hao took a cautious step back. He would rather fight against Butcher than Phoenix, "Don't you bit the hand that feeds you."
"You found him?" Phoenix gave Qin Fen a puzzled look. Qin Fen just finished resting for a cycle of true energy. He opened his eyes at this time.
"Yes. Squad Leader Hao is my squad leader."
Qin Fen slowly stood up. He clenched a hand into a fist with force, feeling quite a bit of his strength restored.
"So it was like this. Then forget it!" Phoenix was more straightforward than many men. She looked at Qin Fen once more, "From the fight with you just now, I feel that you should go train in the gravity chambers for a while."
The other drill instructors nodded their heads in deep looks of approval.
"Understood."
Experts all grew from amateurs. Qin Fen knew that he should take in the experience of others. Without bidding Squad Leader Hao farewell, he simply and silently walked out of the room.
The drill instructors looked at each other for a few moments before laughing all together.
"This quiet kid is really amazing." Squadron Leader Trash laughed as he shook his head, "He simply chose to ignore Old Hao, breaking his trickery."
Qin Fen walked out of the room. He raised his head to look at the sky. There was still a bit of the sun's afterglow. His lips raised into a smile. He had won the battle this time! He had turned the tables at last against that crafty Ol' Squad Leader. It looked like trickery was quite interesting. Even if these skills weren't used to trick others, they could be used to prevent oneself from being tricked.
Qin Fen made his way through several living quarters to arrive at the canteen. Practically all the people of his company were there, save for Du Peng. Those who used the gravity chambers exhausted their stamina far more severely, so there was a special canteen next to the gravity chambers that specifically replenishes these people undergoing special training with nourishment.
"Old Qin, over here. Over here."
Deng Biao, with his height of a hundred and ninety centimeters, was just as cordial as always. It was as if Qin Fen had never beaten him up on that day, for he harbored not a grudge.
Qin Fen was curious about this before. In this early morning when they all got up, he just so happen to hear Deng Biao answer a different comrade who had asked this question.
"Punches and kicks are punches and kicks, and comrades are comrades. Back then I wanted to compete for the position of boss. If I were boss and someone comes to cause trouble with our squad, then I would naturally cover for him. Since he's stronger than me, I'll just let him cover for me."
After hearing such an answer, Qin Fen felt that he had been a bit too impulsive on that day.
Qin Fen joined the rest of his squad at their dining table and immediately joined in the contest for food as well.
When it came to food, the more people there were, the better one's appetite. Qin Fen felt this iron law resonate deep within him.
Qin Fen stopped eating once he was eighty percent full. Even though he lived just above the poverty line, he was always very attentive to his own body. The best state for the body was to be eighty percent full. Eating completely full was actually not good for the body.
Perhaps it was because he lived just above the poverty line that he had to ensure his body be healthy. Qin Fen put down his chopsticks and looked at his comrades, who were still wolfing down food. Military meals sure were great.
"I have a bit of something I need to do everyone. I'll be heading out first." Qin Fen got up and left the dinner party.
"Whatcha busy with, Old Qin?" Deng Biao spoke, his mouth full of a rice dish, "Stay a bit and head back to the living quarters with us. It'll be more fun."
"It's okay. I want to go check out the gravity chambers."
"The gravity chambers? You want to go to the same gravity chamber as Du Peng?"
"Yes."
The recruits of a few surrounding tables all looked at Qin Fen with eyes as if they were looking at a monster. The differences between people were truly infuriating. They were all tired from a day of recruit training. Everyone wanted to go to beat a bit earlier and rest, yet there was actually someone who talked about doing additional training, and this was no typical training. He wanted to run to the gravity chambers for this training.
"Do your best!" Deng Biao said with much pride, "Make a breakthrough and advance early! Today I heard people talking about how strong the Neo Taekwondo expert Park Jong-Hwan of the State of Korea is! It'll be good to have a better grasp over victory in case that fellow comes out from closed-doors."
Park Jong-Hwan? Qin Fen's day had been so budy that he nearly completely forgot about this young expert.
Qin Fen walked out from the canteen after bidding farewell. He arrived at gravity chambers number four. It was also the gravity chambers that was closest to his living quarters.
The gravity chamber. A special building where its artificial space allowed for a change in atmospheric pressure.
Forcibly changing the gravity of the area of a room wasn't something easy to do, as was building a gravity chamber. The sheer amount of money required was enough to make Qin Fen to curse aloud.
Civilians had access to such equipment in the high-end expensive gyms. It was just that Qin Fen always lived just above the lowest standards, and he always refused money from his good friends. He never entered one.
Like he had the time to go to that sort of place to sweat and waste his energy.
