Chapter 148

~7 min read 1,300 words

He Chen Guang and the two others originally wanted to show some "concern," but Liu Xiaotian mercilessly threw a "retort" back at them.

The reason was: they were almost scared to pee, and the bladder needs sleep to recover.

He certainly couldn't say that nothing had happened, because that would only make these three guys' curiosity swell even more.

After finally falling into deep sleep, he hadn't even slept for half an hour before someone woke him up.

The one who "disturbed the good dream" was precisely the assistant instructor who always stays by the Chief Instructor's side.

Liu, Buddha's secret!

Liu Xiaotian almost fell out of bed from being scared by that sentence of "broken English."

Only then did Liu Xiaotian truly get shocked.

At one, one look `no, one wrong version%!'

As for whether he has the ability to help, he hasn't thought about it yet; he just wants to go up and experience those operations of "Stark" and "Dr. Banner" that he once saw in movies.

When Pete spoke, he was quite pleased with himself.

In this room with an area exceeding eight hundred square meters, everything in sight consists of various display devices and control consoles, and there is even a three‑dimensional display and control area similar to "Jiaweis".

Brother, you have no idea—the Chief Instructor doesn't necessarily use the same language when scolding me, and my buddy here has OCD; after being scolded, he goes back and looks up the dictionary, determined to find out exactly what he was scolded for.

Just now, being nervous, I even forgot that we could speak Chinese between us.

Liu Xiaotian: ……

Although he still couldn't be sure what the Chief Instructor's purpose was in summoning him here, he guessed it should be related to the accident on the training field.

But look at this guy with blue eyes and a big nose—this shouldn't be his native language, should it?

Not to brag, buddy, his grilled skewers are absolutely top‑notch……

I estimate this brother hasn't had anyone able to talk properly with him for quite a few years; along the way his mouth never stopped, like he's in a hurry as if he'd borrowed it.

According to Pete, the construction specifications of this underground control center follow the ground "combined battle" defense standard; the surface layer alone is tens of meters thick, and even if two or more "combined eggs" were to hit this place in succession, the underground control center would remain unharmed.

"Very well, rest assured, the school will not let your labor go to waste."

"Chief Instructor sir, I am willing to help, as long as I am able to."

"Damn, I forgot, buddy, my language skills are totally screwed; I've been here six or seven years, I can understand fine when listening, but when I have to speak, I always mess it up."

This buddy seems to speak Northeastern dialect even more fluently than they do!

The entire Warrior School area and the surrounding region within a ten‑kilometer radius have all of the school's surveillance equipment, electronic detection scanning equipment, protection systems, and weapons systems controlled from down here.

Isn't this exactly what the saying "If the eyeball is gone, only the eye socket remains" means?

He couldn't quite figure it out, wondering whether the person who originally designed and built this place had a brain cramp.

Pete's face turned red:

Liu Xiaotian wasn't intimidated either:

If all the surface equipment were gone, what would be the point of keeping this underground control center? What could it still control?

"Liu, you know best what happened in the training field an hour and a half ago;

Saying this, he pointed with his hand at Luobosen standing beside him, whose face looked a bit grim.

"But this time he couldn't find the source of the signal that invaded our system, so I'm asking for your help."

Liu Xiaotian smiled and nodded:

Pete seemed to understand the reason for Liu Xiaotian's astonished look, and he explained somewhat embarrassedly:

After the two introduced themselves to each other, the Chief Instructor spoke again:

Li Erniu: ……

But Liu Xiaotian felt rather helpless about it.

"This is Mr. Luobosen, the person in charge of this place."

I'll honestly tell you, that wasn't an accident; rather, our control system has been invaded;

"Hello, I am Luobosen."

At that moment, Liu Xiaotian really felt like going up to "show off a bit of skill."

"Pfft..." Wang Yanbing, who had just taken a sip of water next to him, didn't waste a drop—it all sprayed onto Pete's face.

Could it be that the purpose is just to let the people inside survive?

Damn it, if those "combined eggs" were really thrown down, what on the surface could possibly be saved?

Liu Xiaotian walked straight up to the Chief Instructor and stood ready; before he could speak, the Chief Instructor, still expressionless, opened his mouth first:

"Since you know Chinese, why don't you just speak Chinese directly to me?"

"This is a request, not an order, because I don't have the authority to issue such a command to you."

Or perhaps the thinking and mental circuits of these foreign friends are truly unusually unconventional.

Ten minutes later, Liu Xiaotian entered a room exceeding eight hundred square meters under Pete's guidance.

Luobosen is an outstanding professional; in the past ten or so years, nothing like this has ever happened.

Pete led Liu Xiaotian to an underground entrance at the center of the Warrior School's playground, stepped forward to open the retinal scanner, brought his own face close to it, and the door opened immediately.

Liu Xiaotian jumped down from the upper bunk with a helpless expression, suppressing a smile as he said to Pete:

The Chief Instructor's facial expression remained unchanged:

Only after entering did Pete tell Liu Xiaotian that this underground place was the Warrior School's electronic control center.

"Hello, I am Liu Xiaotian."

"Now, let me first give you a brief introduction……"

Is this guy's language learned from those little cards that marked the direct phonetic spelling of Chinese characters when he was in school as a child?

"Come on, let's go—the Chief Instructor is waiting for you; if I'm late getting back, I'll definitely get scolded again!"

"Haha… hiccup… this sentence… I… cough cough… I understood…"

"Soldier, now, there are matters that need your help; of course, you can also choose to refuse;"

Although he was displeased inside, Luobosen still extended his hand to Liu Xiaotian, forcing out a faint smile:

That's not just ordinary handsome!

So, uh, another day, it'd be best to wait until after your graduation assessment, buddy—I'll treat you to some skewers.

Pite was obviously a bit anxious, grabbing Liu Xiaotian's arm and speaking as they walked:

However, Liu Xiaotian didn't voice his thoughts; when Pite spoke, he just responded with hums and hahas.

Wang Yanbing: ……

"Sorry, love sorry, A... A Ingrid is... only knows... a little bit..."

The two walked out of the dormitory while talking, leaving He Chen Guang and the other two standing there dumbfounded for a full three or four seconds before they all burst into laughter……

"In these two years as an assistant instructor, I've bought over a dozen dictionaries of various languages……"

He Chen Guang: ……

When the Chief Instructor mentioned Luobosen, he merely made an objective statement, without any hint of disparagement.

Liu Xiaotian turned his head to look at those complex and precise instruments, then nodded solemnly and said:

"I'm willing to help, but I can't guarantee it will definitely work, and I also need Mr. Luobosen's assistance."

The Chief Instructor nodded immediately, but Luobosen felt uneasy inside.

This kid, seems a bit over the top? And he even named me specifically to ask for my help?
