Chapter 68 People Who Want to Get In Through the Back Door
After staying home all day, I was dragged out early the next morning and put into a crazy study mode.
Every day is so full that there's no free time at all, and busy days always seem to pass by quickly.
While receiving a barrage of input from the academicians, he was also being carried by Gu Xinya and Li Chendong to train his physical fitness.
After all, one must be strong to succeed; when you're out in the world, you need some fighting skills to protect yourself.
Li Chendong was extremely enthusiastic every day in order to join the time-traveling team.
Gu Xinyan found it amusing, but she didn't say anything. After all, he would be the next teammate to be added, and it wouldn't be bad to learn and train with him in advance.
Meanwhile, infrastructure construction on Yunyang Island continued unabated. In just over a month, the entire island seemed to have undergone a dramatic transformation.
In addition to the research institutes they had seen before, several more buildings were newly constructed. The rows of buildings looked very impressive, with their uniform blue exteriors that were particularly eye-catching.
Meanwhile, the naval base on the other side of Yunyang Island was also incorporated into the dimensional department. The soldiers in the base had all signed confidentiality agreements some time ago, and when they finally learned the truth, they were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.
They originally thought they were going to establish some kind of secret research institute on the island, since Yunyang Island's location was quite special, and it wouldn't be easy for people from other countries to come over.
But what they couldn't have imagined, no matter how hard they racked their brains, was that the final result was so fantastical. This made them both excited and thrilled when they learned the truth, and they wished they could run to the time-travel room a dozen times a day.
However, they were right about one thing: the research institute does exist, and there is more than one building. It also houses academicians from various fields, so it can be said that this will become the world's largest research base in the future.
After all, the things being studied here are from other dimensions, so their value is obviously extraordinary.
After nearly a month of rambling, I finally saw the legendary time-traveling team members during morning morning exercises.
They were so excited that they wanted to go up and get close to them, thinking that maybe they would be chosen next time.
However, the idea was good, but reality was harsh. As soon as they got close, they were chased away by the captain and his men. They could only watch helplessly from a distance as those shameless captains tried to get close to them.
"Hey Yunting, I never would have guessed! You quietly got into the time-traveling team! Tell me, did you pull some strings? I've been pestering my grandpa for days, but I can't get him to budge. Give me some advice!"
Zhang Junyang quietly ran to the location of the time-traveling team, pushed aside his comrades who wanted to talk, and nudged the expressionless Lu Yunting next to him with his elbow.
Actually, he had already sensed something when his grandfather came over more than a month ago, and originally thought it was to set up some kind of secret research institute.
I never expected that I would find out what happened when I was signing the confidentiality agreement.
He was so envious! He'd been pestering his grandfather for almost a month, but the grandfather wouldn't budge. Now that he'd seen the time-traveling team, he was definitely going to come and find out what was going on.
"Sigh, I don't know what my grandpa was thinking. Was I not good enough?"
That shouldn't be the case! Among our generation in this compound, besides you, I'm the one who's doing the best in the army, and my grandfather still isn't satisfied?
Why don't you pull some strings for me? Get my grandpa to agree? That way, I can go with you guys, wouldn't that be great!
"Brother, I promise, if you can get me in there, I'll wash your stinky socks for a year!"
As Zhang Junyang ran, he muttered to himself. He really wanted to join the time-traveling team, just like when he decided to become a Marine. He knew exactly what he wanted, and the temptation of traveling to another world was too great for him.
Hearing this, Gu Xinyan turned her head to look at the man who spoke. He was about the same age as them, wearing a blue training uniform that was now soaked with sweat, clinging tightly to his body and clearly showing off his firm abdominal muscles.
With his neat short hair and facial features, he has a cool and slightly rebellious look. If he had this appearance in the entertainment industry, he would definitely have debuted immediately.
But compared to Lu Yunting beside him, well! She still prefers Lu Ge's appearance. He's cool and handsome, and apart from being a little aloof, he's perfect.
However, after spending more than a month together, she felt that Brother Lu was the kind of person who was slow to warm up. Perhaps if she kept trying to warm him up, she could melt this iceberg.
Thinking of this, Gu Xinyan shook her head violently. What was she thinking? She must not have been sleeping well lately, and she was starting to think about all sorts of random things.
She quickly turned her gaze to Zhang Junyang. Looking at his somewhat familiar face, a thought flashed through her mind: if she wasn't mistaken, the man in front of her should be Commander Zhang's grandson.
I heard Commander Zhang mention it for a long time last time, saying that her grandson was also on the island and that she wanted to introduce him to her. I suppose this must be the person in front of me.
"Hey! Brother Zhang, you can't cut in line! The next spot is mine. If you want to join, you'll have to wait behind me."
Also, getting into the time-travel team isn't easy. You have to go through layers of selection by academicians, and only those with a final overall score of 98 or higher can be listed as candidates for the time-travel team.
Trying to get in through the team leader won't work. Just go find Commander Zhang and ask him to put your name on the list.
Stop bothering my captain, hurry up and register, or you'll be way back in line. There are quite a few people eyeing this spot right now!
Li Chendong squeezed through the crowd and unleashed a flurry of attacks. The next person to join the team was him.
During the time the captain and his team were on a mission, he went through several rounds of selection, but he hasn't officially joined yet, so he can't relax too soon, since these wolves and tigers are keeping a close eye on him.
Upon hearing Li Chendong's words, Zhang Junyang raised an eyebrow. He had only intended to come and pull some strings, but he hadn't expected to receive such good news.
Seeing that the last few people in the group had quietly left, he couldn't delay any longer and quickly replied:
"Hey, I'll go sign up right now, my good brother. If I get selected, I'll treat you to a drink." With that, he ran off in a hurry.
