Chapter 17 Life Energy Levels
"bite"
We arrived at the 65th floor. It seemed to be a place for exercise. There were many busy people in each room. Virtual projections and large screens could be seen everywhere, quantifying body data so as to find the best way to exercise.
There are several special training rooms, the scenes inside of which cannot be seen from the outside.
Their group was so powerful that they attracted a lot of people's attention. Some acquaintances came up and asked what had happened. Then they looked at Li Ming with a look of gloating.
"Zhao Xiong and Yang Peng have a long-standing feud, and this guy has walked into the crossfire."
“…”
"This is it." Zhao Xiong took Li Ming to an empty training room, where there was a long track and a boxing target machine.
"If you want to join the City Defense Department, the minimum energy level must be 0.5G." Zhao Xiong looked around and saw so many people here. He was very satisfied.
Once this matter is over, it won’t take half a day for everyone in the city’s defense department to know about it.
"0.5G?" Li Ming frowned slightly. Is this a measurement method? His predecessor really had no memory of this.
"Ha..." Seeing his reaction, the people behind Zhao Xiong burst into laughter.
"This is a method for calculating the energy levels of living organisms, universal across the interstellar space." Li Ning hurried over and whispered, "First, try to buy time. Several of these people have good relationships with us, and they should have already informed Captain Yang."
"Energy level calculation method..." Li Ming nodded thoughtfully and said calmly, "I'm sorry, I was bullied at school before, so I applied for home study. No one has taught me systematically."
The sound in the entire training room stagnated again, and everyone looked at each other. No one dared to laugh this time. This was another extremely tricky and sensitive topic.
Who dares to laugh? Get out tomorrow!
Li Ning beside him looked at him in amazement. No, where did those old hands get this information?
Is this cowardice? Which reason is not the most sensitive of the sensitive, a fatal blow.
It's quieter here now than a ministerial meeting!
The corners of Zhao Xiong's mouth twitched slightly, and he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but in the end he could only say: "Let's start."
"Captain Zhao, I was bullied at home before and have never been exposed to these things, so I want to familiarize myself with them first. Is that okay?" Li Ming showed an inquiring look.
No, big brother, is there really someone who dares to bully you? Everyone looked at him strangely. Are you bullying us?
Zhao Xiong took a deep breath. No matter whether what Li Ming said was true or false, at least he couldn't refuse now.
"Can."
Li Ming walked to the target machine, thought for a moment, and finally threw a simple punch.
Bang!
"bite"
A huge number appeared on the big screen above the punching machine - 0.3G
"About that. A kid of this age, without systematic training, only has this much strength." The surroundings became noisy again, with people discussing in low voices.
No one was surprised, except Zhao Xiong, whose eyes showed a hint of doubt. The boy's posture when he attacked did not seem like that of an untrained person.
"0.3 is not bad. With some practice, I should be able to raise it to 0.5 within two months..." Li Ning thought subconsciously. As long as he could get by today, he would have time to make up for it.
"Have you tried it?" Zhao Xiong's voice became much deeper, and there was urgency in his eyes.
"Captain Zhao... Li Ming..." Li Ning opened his mouth, trying to delay time, but heard a muffled sound from behind him.
Bang!
"bite!"
Li Ning suddenly realized that the surroundings had become quiet again. Everyone's eyes were filled with surprise and shock, and Zhao Xiong's eyes, which were already sinister, looked even more sinister at this moment.
Li Ning subconsciously turned around and looked, his pupils suddenly contracted, and saw a number appear again on the screen above the punching machine - 0.6G.
………
"Captain Yang, if Zhao Xiong seizes this opportunity, I'm afraid it will be troublesome. The Interstellar Alliance review team and the Blue Star escort personnel are about to arrive. Now is a sensitive time, and this kind of violation will be magnified."
Yang Peng hurried into the gate of the City Guard Department with a gloomy face, and the people around him were chattering.
"There's still time. Please contact the section chief and have him cross out his name. It's probably just a system error."
"Lao Dao, since Zhao Xiong has bumped into us, it won't be that simple. There are so many people in the training room, it's useless even if we cross them out." Yang Peng shook his head, knowing that this matter would not be resolved so easily.
"But shouldn't Li Ming have come this morning? I'm lucky. Zhao Xiong had a mission in the morning, so how come he ran into me in the afternoon?"
"I don't know. Xiao Li is still a bit rough in his work." Lao Dao sighed, turned around and sat up. The two of them had already gotten on the elevator.
"Zhao Xiong!" As soon as the elevator door opened, Yang Peng's stern shout echoed throughout the training room, and everyone subconsciously turned their heads to look.
However, what surprised Yang Peng was that he did not see mockery or gloating in the eyes of the people present, but instead another kind of indescribable expression.
Um?
Zhao Xiong walked straight over, his face grim, staring coldly at Yang Peng, "Your timing is perfect, Yang Peng, I underestimated you."
Yang Peng was puzzled. Lao Dao beside him felt his throat tremble and hesitated, "Captain Yang, look."
Yang Peng looked in the direction he pointed, and in the transparent glass room, the eye-catching 0.6g on the punching target machine was clearly visible.
Standing in front of the boxing target machine was the thin-looking Li Ming, and next to him was Li Ning with a wide grin on his face.
How is it possible!?
Yang Peng subconsciously didn't believe it. He knew Li Ming very well. Let alone 0.6, even 0.3 would be difficult. After all, he had never had systematic exercise since childhood.
But he quickly reacted and sneered, "Zhao Xiong, you've crossed the line this time. What does our team's newcomer have to do with you?"
"I just want to help Captain Yang avoid some trouble." Zhao Xiong snorted coldly.
"Whether that's the case or not, the Section Chief will make his own judgment." Yang Peng retorted, their eyes meeting. Zhao Xiong quickly moved away, leaving with his men.
"This... is Captain Zhao being tricked by Captain Yang?"
"Isn't it obvious? Captain Yang acted in violation of regulations and deliberately let Captain Zhao find out. Now that he's fine, Captain Zhao is the clown."
"Just wait, this matter will soon spread throughout the entire City Guard Department..."
I'm so awesome?
Yang Peng muttered to himself and walked straight towards Li Ming and the others.
"Captain Yang..." Li Ning excitedly approached, but was met with a barrage of scolding: "What's going on? Shouldn't the formalities have been completed this morning? How did Zhao Xiong catch us?!"
"Captain Yang, I was delayed this morning." Li Ming took the initiative and Li Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
Everyone around curled their lips and said, "Go on, act it out, do the whole thing, right? And you still say you didn't let Zhao Xiong catch you on purpose?"
"Be careful next time." Yang Peng scolded, then looked at the punch target machine, "Is this your strength?"
"Well, I tried my best to do it." Li Ming explained.
"When did you start exercising?" Yang Peng asked casually.
"It's been a while. My dad forced me to start it." Li Ming explained, putting all the blame on Li Changhai.
"Yeah." Yang Peng didn't know whether to believe it or not, so he didn't chat much here. The few of them went to the 223rd floor.
