CHAPTER XXXVIII
Chen Yan frowned, his lips moved slightly, and asked, "How did you know that I had a Level 4 secret project?" The level of the project was not public, and even Lily just thought that her project was a Level 3 secret - this was because of Lance, the overseer.
Lance had said that the entire fourth-level secret was only herself. Except for the high-ranking officials, no one else will know.
"Want to know how I know? If you win, I'll tell you. β
What else did Mei Na say, but was held down by Chen Yan. She thought for a while and said, "It's okay to compete, but since you proposed it, then the rules of the competition are set by me." β
Jane nodded, "Yes." If you win, I'll tell you how to know your project level. If you lose β I'm going to ask you to quit the current project. Although the man following behind her had not spoken, his eyes had never left Chen Yan, and he said in a contemptuous tone at this time, "Jane's results in all physical fitness tests are better than yours. I advise you to quit as soon as possible, you don't deserve to work on that project. β
The two people who were drinking over there and the commentator Ilo had been attracted by the situation here, and when he heard this, Adolf almost punched him and was stopped by the others. Adolf was furious, "Why did you decide on Chen Yan's project?"
Many people in the bar were attracted to the excitement, and some even whistled for fear of the world.
In the context of this commotion, Chen Yan became expressionless, and the man couldn't help but look away at the coldness in her eyes. Chen Yan didn't answer the man's words, but said indifferently to Jane: "Let's start now." β
In front of acquaintances, Chen Yan always looks plain and smiling, and sometimes he is even easy-going and a little easy to bully. Mei Na quietly bit Adolf's ear: "Chen Yan is angry. Let's see. Adolf looked at Chen Yan inexplicably, with a confused expression.
It's still the familiar training ground. Jane walked straight to the climbing wall, "It's better than this." You say the rules. β
Everyone's eyes were on Chen Yan, but she was still looking at the climbing wall. The man who followed Jane sneered, "What are you looking at? Admit defeat now, it won't be too ugly." β
"The rule is, don't use a safety rope, and the longer person wins. β
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar. Everyone was talking, "This competition is really new", "Isn't it all about who reaches the end first?", "According to this comparison, when will it end?" "Both are women, and it is estimated that they will not be able to hold on soon." β
Jian was stunned for a moment, looked at the height of the wall, and said, "The Communist Party is so high, how can it be longer than the length of time?"
"This is easy to do", Chen Yan looked at Mei Na, "How high is the climbing wall you use for training?"
"Fifty meters," Mina thought for a moment, "but I'm afraid it's still not enough." She had seen Chen Yan's skillful ability to use muscles, and felt that this was not a problem for Chen Yan.
Unexpectedly, he was misunderstood by others, "It's not enough, Jane can climb two fifty meters without a problem." β
Chen Yan was almost laughed at angrily. If she had just been angry because of this person's insulting remarks about her Level 4 project, and because that project included the efforts of too many people who risked their lives, now she could finally be sure that Jane had found a teammate like a pig.
"Meina, can you borrow training room 001 to use it? I remember that training room is three hundred meters high. β
"Of course. Mei Na understood what Chen Yan meant, "You mean to connect the six climbing walls together, so that there are three hundred meters of climbing walls." β
Chen Yan nodded, his gaze swept over the man, "Yes, I think three hundred meters is probably enough." β
Everyone looked at each other. The 300-meter climbing wall seems to have been tried by no one yet. Everyone was excited, and they eagerly moved to the No. 001 training room of the special mission unit, as if they were going to compete.
Mei Na was extremely efficient, and by the time Chen Yan walked slowly to the place, the climbing wall had already been built.
"Oh my!" someone exclaimed. Because the climbing wall is so high, the bottom starts from the ground, and the highest point meets the ceiling of the training room, and it makes me feel dizzy just by looking at it.
People who are afraid of heights will definitely give up at a glance. Unfortunately, neither player in the match had this symptom.
Chen Yan changed into his training clothes and prepared with Jane alone. Mina held a timer in her hand, "3-2-1-start!"
Both started climbing at the same time.
It was fine at the beginning, after all, it was not high. Everyone stood on the ground and watched. Jane's speed was significantly faster than Chen's, and there were no mistakes during the climb. Chen Yan's speed was average, and he had to step on every step before continuing to go up, and he was soon left behind by Jian.
Quinn looked at it worriedly and said, "Chen Yan's speed is not enough, if Jane reaches the top first, I'm afraid it will be ......."
"No way. Iloh stopped him, "Three hundred meters is a struggle even for us, let alone researchers. Don't forget, the rules of the game are that the one who holds on for the longest time wins. And both of them climbed without safety measures, and the higher they were, the more they tested their guts. Wait and see, the wonderful ones are in the back. β
Chen Yan didn't pay attention to the muttering below. She's trying to coordinate the muscles all over her body so that they take turns to rest. There is still a long way to go, and the energy stored in the cells is limited, and it takes time to replenish the energy. As long as each cell is given enough time to rest, she will be able to hold on longer.
She no longer had a sense of time in her brain, and all her experience was focused on the calculation of cycles that enabled the parts of her body to take turns exerting force.
And Jane on the side was not so calm. Ever since Mina started the time, she has been secretly calculating the time in her mind. But now it is almost close to the maximum time she can hold on, and she is indeed a lot ahead of Chen Yan, but Chen Yan, who is lagging behind, shows no signs of fatigue.
Jane gritted her teeth, she definitely couldn't be compared to this person. Jane stopped where she was, intending to take a short break to regain her strength, while observing Chen Yan's movements.
The more I watched, the more frightened I became. Chen Yan's movements were not fast, even very slow, but she had always been at a constant speedβlike a lizard, crawling slowly but evenly.
There is no such thing as "rest" in her movements.
Chen Yan quickly reached Jane's height, and at this moment they had reached the end of the first climbing wall. The people watching at the bottom craned their necks and forgot it, so they all went up to the stands one by one.
The stands used to watch the mechs on weekdays are also crowded at the moment, but they are here to watch the two female researchers compete. Thinking about the last time Chen Yan fell from here and was caught by Colonel Lance, she couldn't help but sigh for a moment, and then found that their leader was actually in the crowd.
Colonel Lance stood in the corner of the training room, looking in Chen Yan's direction.
After a long time, both of them had reached the end of the second climbing wall. A hundred meters up. Some people who originally had the attitude of watching jokes gradually became serious. Some people even discussed whether they should take some protective measures in case the two of them fell out of physical exhaustion.
Jane was worried about this as well. She had never climbed to this height without a safety rope, and in the first fifty meters, she didn't feel any fear in her heart, because she still had a breath of competition. But the higher it is, the more physical strength is lost, and the sense of fear arises spontaneously.
But Chen Yan still had a serious expression, still studying the next focus. Jian secretly observed for a long time and found that Chen Yan's expression was not pretended - she was really not afraid.
The man who had followed Jane was already standing below Jane, seemingly ready to catch Jane who had accidentally fallen. Originally, Mei Na also wanted Adolf to go over, but she received a signal from Colonel Lance, so Chen Yan's position was empty below, and no one took any protective measures.
Somehow, when Jane saw this scene, not only did she not feel the bottom of her heart, but she felt even more fluttering under her feet.
At a certain point, she slipped and fell in exclamation. However, it didn't hit the man who was about to catch her, but was caught by something in mid-air.
If you look closely, it is an almost transparent net, which I don't know when it was erected, and it seems that it has been there for a long time. But the net was far away from them, so it went unnoticed.
Mei Na pinched the timer in her hand and shouted excitedly: "The result of the game, Chen Yan wins!" There were bursts of applause around her, and many people were asking who this "Chen Yan" was.
It was only at this moment that Chen Yan broke away from the state that seemed to be in a state of concentration just now, and the noisy sounds around him burst into his ears. She looked around in a dream, then noticed the transparent net, and strangely saw Colonel Lance in the corner.
He nodded at her from afar, but Chen Yan knew what the other party meant from this simple action. She thought Lance was saying, "It's fun, give it a try......
If Colonel Lance knew what she understood, he would probably vomit blood. In fact, what the implicit Colonel Lance wanted to convey was: well done.
Chen Yan let go of his hand and felt the comfort of free fall. Then it bounces up on the net, falls again, and bounces up again. It's been a long time since she's been so relaxed, and she feels like the alcohol that has just entered her stomach belatedly acting on her nerves.
Major Iger of the Military Department was not allowed to rest tonight, although Lance said he always did not sleep at night.
Lance, Egger, Chen Yan, Jane, and the man with Jane, Jane's boyfriend, sat in Major Egger's office. Since Chen Yan's project was the only fourth-level project in Asher, Major Egger made an exception to ask about it personally.
"Jane, can you tell me now, how did you know my object level?"
