I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 124. Battle Armor Completed
Chapter 124: 124. Battle Armor Completed
Jessica was completely like a child showing off her toys.
At first, she didn’t mind letting her friends play for a bit, while she enjoyed their shocked and envious reactions.
But when her friends showed a desire to share for an extended period, she became displeased.
Lu Li smiled as he pinched her cheek, unsure of what to say.
After all, she was a girl in the bloom of youth, not yet fully mature.
At that moment, Teresa put down her backpack and came into the yard, shouting from afar, "It’s time for training."
"I’m coming~" Jessica hurried out.
The two girls, dressed in their usual casual clothes, practiced "crawling" around the yard under Aurora’s supervision.
First, they would abruptly lie down, crawl tens of meters with their bodies close to the ground, then immediately get up and sprint... repeating the process.
Under gunfire and bomb attacks, this posture allowed for quick evasion and escape.
Matters of life and death, Teresa practiced very seriously, meticulously crawling on the dirty ground.
"Use your hands and feet simultaneously!" "Keep your body low!"
Aurora, too, kept a stern face, shouting continuously, pointing out mistakes to ensure the girls had swift and standard movements.
Facing the threat of the drug lord, no one dared to slack off!
In the last election, ninety well-known politicians died, not to mention countless family members affected.
The two girls joyously tumbled in the mud while Lu Li stood next to Aurora and casually asked,
"Do we have any intel on Benjamin?"
"You’ve dismantled the special police force, impressive indeed, but dealing with Benjamin is no small matter..."
Aurora said earnestly,
"This is a warlord with 130,000 standby troops, gathering professional soldiers and elite agents from around the world! With such a massive force, this man is extremely cautious, changing his residence every day..."
Aurora corrected Teresa’s posture, then continued,
"No one knows exactly where he is, so... the best solution is for Lady Maria to succeed in the presidential election and use the nation’s power to eliminate him."
Lu Li was not optimistic about the so-called national power: "Didn’t the previous president, who banned drugs, get ousted by the drug lord?"
Aurora shook her head, "Lady Maria is different..."
"Even if Benjamin is dealt with, I remember there are four such drug trafficking groups, right?"
"Uh..." Aurora was momentarily speechless and even thought: These drug trafficking groups all have the support of the Star Alliance Country.
Even for a decisive figure like Lady Maria, could she truly ban drugs?
At that moment, Lu Li’s phone rang.
He took out his phone and walked toward the garage while saying, "Gather all the intelligence on the drug lord, it might be useful later."
"You... alright, I will."
Aurora initially wanted to say something like "the kid doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth."
But looking at the young man’s retreating figure, the intuition of both the soldier and the woman told her—she should trust him!
~~~~~~~~~~
It was Professor Wei Wenqi who had sent a video call invitation; it must be about Xiao Cha’s battle armor.
Lu Li casually accepted the call, and a middle-aged man with a square face and large ears appeared on the phone.
"Xiao Lu, you’ve grown so much. You really resemble your great-grandfather!"
Professor Wei made small talk while simultaneously glancing at Lu Li’s background.
A white mansion, a large garden, a swimming pool... Clearly, it was a luxurious villa!
With a fleeting glimpse, he gained a more direct understanding of Lu Li’s financial capabilities.
Lu Li asked, "Is the battle armor ready?"
"Yes, I’ve assembled a task force, and after several days of hard work, we finally have a finished product..."
Professor Wei spoke as he aimed the camera at a 3D printer behind him.
Several young men in work clothes continuously removed metal parts that had been printed and adjusted a metal battle armor.
The battle armor had a streamlined design, stacked and assembled from multiple layers of metal armor, resembling the Mark 2 at first glance but slightly bulkier.
Professor Wei explained,
"It uses multi-layer composite armor with an average thickness of 1.5 centimeters. The outermost layer is boron nitride, and the inner layers are titanium tungsten alloy and composite carbon fiber. Not to mention heavy machine guns, even bombs won’t penetrate it."
"It weighs 220 kilograms, but ordinary people can wear it too! Ah—Xiao Sun, try it on."
At Professor Wei’s instruction, a skinny young man wearing glasses approached the rear of the battle armor.
The camera shifted, showing the back of the battle armor open, with Xiao Sun moving closer as the arm armor tightened inward.
With the sound of springs and gears turning, the back of the battle armor slowly closed up, fitting tightly.
And Xiao Sun, an ordinary person, managed to shuffle a few steps while bearing over 400 pounds of battle armor!
Professor Wei said rather proudly,
"The battle armor incorporates our country’s ’Single Soldier Passive Exoskeleton’ technology, effectively reducing the stress on the spine and joints..."
Lu Li had heard of this technology, which utilized the physiological characteristics of crustacean and ant exoskeletons to disperse and transmit pressure.
However, as Xiao Sun was an ordinary person, he only managed to move stiffly for a couple of steps before accidentally falling over and hitting his head on the ground, creating a hole.
A group of people hurriedly helped him up, and Professor Wei said helplessly,
"A man in his 30s, and still so careless when walking."
He quickly moved away with his mobile phone, laughing, frёeωebɳovel.com
"These PhD students watch cartoons all day; their physical condition is so bad. But it’s thanks to their interest that they worked overtime to make this happen. Really quite interesting."
Professor Wei thought he had just made an elaborate toy for the wealthy, unaware that in the hands of a martial artist, it was undoubtedly a lethal weapon!
Lu Li smiled, "I’m very satisfied with the battle armor, send it over directly."
As the client was satisfied, Professor Wei was naturally happy,
"I’ll send it to you ASAP! Oh, and the various parts of the battle armor can be assembled and disassembled, and you can adjust the tightness with a knob. I’ll have them include a manual with the details."
"Thank you, Professor Wei, it’s been a pleasure working with you."
"Pleasure... You really resemble how your grandfather looked when he was young, even the way you talk is similar. I used to see him often in the compound when I was a child; you two are at least 90% alike."
...
After a few more pleasantries, the two ended their communication.
At that moment, cries of astonishment came from the garden.
Two young girls were doing pull-ups, with Jessica "huffing and puffing" and performing a dozen or so in quick succession.
Teresa was astonished...
Jessica’s strength wasn’t just in her physical quality.
The young girl was naturally intelligent, also inhaling Calming Incense daily.
In Otherworld, many people without Refining God Cultivation also bought Calming Incense for its mind-clearing effects.
Parents especially liked to buy it for their children to aid them in their studies.
In the days that followed, Jessica showed incredible talent.
She learned various tactical movements in one go, could swiftly disassemble firearms after just one look, and even scored 90 out of a possible 100 from 15 meters with a pistol.
Aurora, thrilled, taught Jessica even more specialized skills.
Not just individual combat techniques, but also concealment and observation skills.
When the time came to December 1, three women prepared to leave the house with an M24 sniper rifle.
"Lu Li, Aurora is going to teach me sniping lessons!"
"Go ahead, be safe."
Jessica left with a face full of excited smiles, and Lu Li prepared to receive the last batch of goods from the trip.
