Chapter 77

"Whether we can see him or not is still uncertain. Worrying about this now is a bit excessive."

Lin Yi sat on the sofa, "So there's no need to worry. This time, going to the island shouldn't be a problem; it will be similar to usual."

This statement was the result of Lin Yi's deep consideration.

Tilia Island is a public area, and anyone can go there.

If the Blood Bull Club members show up there, it would mean that the two major forces would confront each other head-on.

Although the Blood Bull Club members are unaware that their movements have been exposed, they will still be cautious and won't frequently appear at this critical moment.

Therefore, Lin Yi believes that under normal circumstances, the chances of encountering them this time on the island are not high.

He even wondered if Team One needed to go to the island this time.

"Don't talk nonsense," Liu Hong said, "This guy is full of bad ideas and must have thought of another way."

"Look at what you're saying. If I had thought of another way, I would definitely tell you," Lin Yi said, "Now, the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the open. It's not easy to find them."

"Are you sure you haven't?"

"Really, I haven't."

"I don't care if you have or not," Liu Hong yawned, "You deal with it yourself. If you need help, let me know."

"Alright."

Snap—

Liu Hong lit a cigarette, "The minerals you brought back have been prepared for training. You can try them out."

"Sure."

"Let's go, I'll take you around."

Liu Hong, holding his cigarette, stood up, and the group walked out of the administrative building toward the research institute.

As Liu Hong and the others entered, people passing by greeted them.

"Director Liu."

While the group was heading toward the basement, they saw Chen Zhiyi, wearing a white lab coat, coming out of her office with a stack of documents in her hand.

Compared to her previous outfit on the island, Chen Zhiyi now looked completely different.

Her long, black, smooth hair was tied up at the back with a hair clip, and she wore a pair of thin-framed black glasses, giving her a knowledgeable and serious demeanor.

"Team One is back. Take them down to the basement," Chen Zhiyi said, glancing at Lin Yi, "I'm also quite curious about what level Team Leader Lin can reach."

"We'll see soon."

After a brief chat, the group headed toward the basement.

Lin Yi stood next to Ning Che and whispered, "Have you guys tried this thing? How does it work?"

"It stimulates muscle tissue fibers through magnetic fields and electric current pulses. Over time, it helps to increase explosive power and endurance."

"What does she mean by 'level'?"

"There are 20 levels in total. The higher the level, the stronger the stimulation, and the greater the improvement," Ning Che said, "But you can't blindly increase the level. You need to consider your own condition; otherwise, it could backfire."

"How are the two teams doing?"

"For new members, it's around level one to two. For veteran members, it's around level five to six. We two are around level nine," Ning Che said, "But female members are relatively weaker in this aspect; it's not their strong point."

Lin Yi nodded, gaining a general understanding of the new equipment.

Soon, the group arrived at the basement of the Central Guard Regiment.

Compared to the upper floors, it was a bit more lively here.

In addition to Teams Five to Eight, there were several new members training.

When they saw Lin Yi and Team One, the new members training all turned their attention to them.

Upon reaching the equipment room, Lin Yi saw two members standing inside a metal machine, with only their heads exposed, covered by a layer of tempered glass.

Their expressions were extremely painful, indicating they were at their limit.

In front of the machine, there were numerous indicator lights and buttons, giving the impression of an airplane instrument panel, which made Lin Yi's head hurt just looking at it.

From the outside, it didn't seem like much, but there must be some preparation work involved, which would need to be verified personally.

After about three minutes, some of the lights on the machine turned off, and the resonating sound decreased significantly.

The training session was over.

"Other details don't matter. Just look at the last number on the screen. Both of them show a two, indicating their training limit is at level two," Ning Che said.

Lin Yi nodded, understanding that the key points were what mattered.

The two members who finished training came out of the machine and greeted Lin Yi and the others.

Lin Yi smiled and nodded in response, then called over Team One and had the waiting new members continue their training.

"Team Leader Lin, why don't you go first? We'll wait," a male member said with a smile, "Let us see the show."

"Then I won't be polite."

Lin Yi looked at Sui Qiang and Yu Siying, "You two, go try it out."

"I'll take you," Chen Zhiyi gestured, leading the two to the machine.

During this time, a male researcher took Sui Qiang to the other side.

A few minutes later, the two entered the machine.

Through the glass, they could be seen nodding, indicating they were ready.

The training session began shortly after.

Lin Yi watched the small screens on the two machines, which both started at level one.

He glanced at their expressions, noticing no change, indicating that this level had no effect on them.

After about ten seconds, the level increased from one to two, then from two to three.

Their states remained unchanged, but some of the new members started to look nervous.

The researcher, who was familiar with their conditions, didn't stay at level three for long and quickly increased it to level four, then to level five.

This level was the standard for ordinary members.

At the same time, Lin Yi noticed that Yu Siying's eyebrows slightly furrowed, but she didn't have any extreme reactions. In contrast, Sui Qiang remained unchanged.

After about a minute, the level increased to six.

This time, Sui Qiang's expression changed, but not significantly.

Another minute passed, and the level increased to seven.

At this point, Yu Siying's reaction became more intense, while Sui Qiang's condition was slightly better.

"Truly worthy of Team One. They've reached level seven."

Seeing the data on the screen, the new members couldn't help but feel envious.

"No wonder they made it into Team One; they are really strong!"

"Let's all keep working hard."

Chen Zhiyi, observing the data, signaled the researcher to continue increasing the level.
