Chapter 14: The First Mission (Part II)

"I don't know exactly what's going on...... Anyway, I am now working at a private research institute in the United States with my assistant...... Assistant, do you remember? ”

Zhou Yuan nodded. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoWhen it comes to Rentaro Okabe's assistant, all that comes to mind is the red-haired girl in a white coat who appeared in a video call with Rentaro Okabe.

Other words...... Because of a text message from himself, Ganglen studied hard and was admitted to a better university than Tokyo University of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, and now works in a private research institute in the United States?

Zhou Yuan still couldn't figure out what this had to do with the huge changes that had taken place in this world.

After waiting for a long time, Zhou Yuan saw that Ganglun still didn't reply, so he asked, "Then what?" ”

And then ...... Nope. That's all I can tell you at the moment...... Actually, I don't know what all this is all about. ”

Is that all there is to it......

"If you have time, you'll come here sometime. It's in Shanghai...... I'll pass you Athena's phone number later. ”

Let's get Gunlon over here first. Overwatch is currently the one who knows the best thing about how the world is changing, so there should be a few other things to be found here.

"Hmm...... Good. ”

Ganglen only hesitated for a few seconds before agreeing to Zhou Yuan's request.

"Well, I'm going on a mission. Just hang up first, goodbye. ”

After Zhou Yuan said this, he ended the communication, and after checking the equipment one last time, he also buckled the red goggles on his head.

Okay, so the gear is dressed up and ready to go.

When Zhou Yuan walked to the first exit of the Overwatch base, Old Man Reinhardt had not yet arrived, but Hunter Kong was already sitting on the railing next to the exit waiting for Zhou Yuan.

"Yo, Instructor. Are you here to see me off? I'm so impressed. ”

Zhou Yuan waved his hand at the hunt from afar.

"I'm just here to remind you, because you don't want to be an agent just by physically training to the current level, so when you come back, there will be good news and bad news."

Good news, and bad news? Doesn't that sound good......

"The good news is that you don't have to do Athena's kind of training for ordinary soldiers, and the bad news is that my training extends to the whole day, and the training is doubled on top of that."

Zhou Yuan's expression was as ugly as constipation. Hunter's training had drained him of his physical limits almost every time, and now he had to stretch it all day...... And then double the number again?

Joke...... Is this amount of training that a human can do? Even if Winston comes, can't he?

"By the way, there's ...... This is your first mission. According to Chief Morrison, this mission should not be dangerous, you just need to check the situation...... But be careful. You're going to give me back in good condition. ”

Zhou Yuan couldn't help but be a little moved. McCree, a roommate who has never met, Athena, an intelligent robot, Master Zenyata, and a highly trained Sky Hunter Instructor. These people really care about and take care of themselves, and they can even make themselves feel that Overwatch is their home.

"Yes, Instructor! But...... Can the training be reduced a bit? ”

"No way!"

Well...... All right. It seems that the Sky Hunter Instructor is really uncompromising in terms of training......

"Alright, lad, I'm ready! Let's go! ”

Behind Zhou Yuan, a familiar, Reinhardt voice came. I guess I ended the fight with Chief Morrison, right......?

"Yo, old man...... Wow wow! What is it? ”

A whole set of armor. Covered in battle scars, a full-cover armor made of steel that completely encased Reinhardt's entire body. Originally, Reinhardt's height was much taller than Zhou Yuan's, but now after wearing this set of armor, Zhou Yuan felt that his head could probably only reach Reinhardt's waist.

In addition to this, Reinhardt also held his weapon in his hand, a metal hammer with a total length of more than two meters.

This hammer can only be described as violent. A hammer made entirely of metal can weigh hundreds of kilograms, to say the least. Even the weight aside, if you look at it from the outside, the flame-black spout on the back of the hammer shows that this thing is more than just a cold weapon that looks like it.

"How's that, look envious? You can't always use a pulse rifle either...... Someday, you'll find your own weapon too. ”

Even though Reinhardt was carrying such a heavy rocket hammer and still bearing the weight of the armor, it was effortless to talk to Zhou Yuan, and he even waved at Zhou Yuan with one free hand.

"No...... I'm pretty handy with this gun. I don't know why, but when I picked up the gun, I habitually hit it very accurately. Maybe...... I'd be hard-pressed to find a better weapon for me. ”

"Really......"

Reinhardt paused, and then did not answer Zhou Yuan's words, but diverted the topic: "Okay...... The door is open, and it's time for us to go. ”

With the opening of the gate of the underground base, Zhou Yuan, who had not seen the outside world for two months, saw the outside again.

This is not the same as Zhou Yuan imagined. Outside, it's not a high-tech, ultra-modern, bustling city, but an unusually desolate wasteland where it's hard to see even a bit of green.

"It's not quite what I imagined...... I teleported in last time, and I haven't seen the exit yet. Honestly, old man...... I also think that there is a city above our heads. ”

Zhou Yuan squinted his eyes, looking at the sunlight outside that had not been seen for a long time.

"How is that possible...... The underground of a city is usually planned. Moreover, if the base is built under the city, security and confidentiality are not guaranteed. ”

Also...... Even this most basic common sense has been ignored. If anything, my mind is probably still stuck before the world changed...... Even if you know and understand the world, you will think about everything before the world changes.

Zhou Yuan thought to himself.

"It's still about twenty or thirty kilometers away from the farthest teleportation array site in the vicinity...... Young man, do you want to run with me? ”

Reinhardt suggested.

"You're running around like this? Old man, when the time comes, I won't say I'm unfair, right? ”

Zhou Yuan looked at the heavy armor worn by Reinhardt in disbelief. If it was said that the old man was fighting in this suit of armor, although Zhou Yuan was a little surprised, it was not to the point of disbelief.

But...... Wearing this thing to run 20,000 or 30,000 meters with weight?

"How so? You also have weapons, and I have weapons, so the two of us are fair! ”

Zhou Yuan looked at the pulse rifle in his hand, and then found that he couldn't understand what Reinhardt meant by fairness.

But...... Whatever.

"Okay, come on! I haven't wasted these two months...... I don't believe you, old man, you can outrun me in armor! ”
