Chapter 119: Son-in-law

Aturu withdrew his pursuers, and naturally he would not send someone to intercept him, and his escape was unbelievably smoother.

Anson was the first to break the silence: "Okay, I'll admit it, you're right, I'm wondering, how can you tell that the rebels have something weird?" After a while, Chen Fang replied, "Because the rebel reinforcements are late." ”

Anson said depressedly: "What does this mean, isn't it better to be late?" ”

Chen Fang said: "I accurately calculated the time when the rebel reinforcements arrived, and the reinforcements were supposed to arrive, but they didn't, so I can only suspect that something went wrong with the plan." ”

Anson said in a daze: "You made the decision to retreat based on this alone?" ”

Chen Fang said categorically: "No matter whether the rebels' reinforcements arrive or not, when the scheduled time comes, I will evacuate, I will not pin my hope on the opponent's mistakes, and it is impossible for Aturu to make mistakes." ”

Anson thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense, but it will be difficult for us to assassinate Aturu next time." ”

After a moment of silence, Chen Fang said calmly: "We don't have the ability to assassinate Aturu, give up." ”

After a match, Chen Fang and Aturu made the same decision, because they both saw each other's strength, and it was a waste of time to entangle.

Anson immediately shouted, "What did you say? Abandon! ”

Chen Fang said calmly: "Give up the assassination plan, we are not Aturu's opponent, at least not now, even if he is alone, we are not capable of killing him, not to mention that with this experience, his escort next time will definitely be more than two hundred people, and we are very likely to crash into his trap." ”

Chen Fang is not paranoid, but the education he received since childhood is different.

Grandpa was an adventurous man and passed on the spirit of adventure to him. When he was less than six years old, his grandfather told him not to give up trying because of the risks, as the gains would outweigh the losses. However, being adventurous is never the same as being stupid, and my grandfather also said that he should see hope in difficult times and risks in good times, and now that he has tried, he is powerless to defeat Aturu, so he does not hesitate to give up.

It is an indisputable fact that the strength of the two sides is too different, and the reward for assassinating Aturu has been increased again, and it is clear that through this assassination, the mercenary association has reassessed the difficulty of the assassination mission, and Aturu's head is more valuable. This is the usual practice of the mercenary association, which detects that the difficulty of the task is too high, and increases the reward to the extent that it makes the high-level mercenaries tempted.

After a long silence, the mercenary group accepted the offer, and Chen Fang then threw a bombshell: "I've been promoted." ”

"Is there such a thing? He can also be promoted if he fails the mission, and in the mercenary group, he is the only one who advances. The thunderbolt bee screamed in disbelief.

"Isn't it strange, the rank of a mercenary is a confirmation of ability, and it has nothing to do with merit, who stipulates that you have to complete the task to be promoted?" Although he was reluctant to accept it, An Xun had to admit that Chen Fang's ability was not weaker than him, since he had the strength of a fourth-order mercenary, it was normal to be promoted to a fourth-order mercenary. The association only needs to observe the mercenary's ability to judge whether he has been promoted or not, and Chen Zai's performance in Xiu Nanxing is enough for the mercenary association to confirm his ability.

However, An Xun also quietly raised a trace of resentment, both of them came for promotion, and now Chen Fang has achieved his goal, even if he assassinates Aturu, it is unlikely that he will be promoted continuously, and it is natural to give up, but what about him, except for picking up a few painless commissions, he has gained nothing.

After a week of recuperation, the humanitarian aid activities came to an end, and on the return trip, there were two more people on the spaceship, the indigenous girl who was adopted by Lu Lingxue, and Mo Lan.

Now Mo Lan's identity is a reporter, which is a cover for her to escape from Xiu Nanxing, and it is also her future work.

Lu Lingxue is a person who keeps her promises, not only making her a citizen of the empire, but also arranging a decent job for her. And the video data of this rescue activity is the capital for her to enter the industry.

"Got your wish?" Chen Fang asked quietly to Mo Lan, who was also crowded in the back cabin, originally wanted to say congratulations, but the person with a thorn in his heart listened to it, which was more like a mockery.

"It's a pity that you came home with a feather, how about it, after fighting with Arturu, do you know what it means to be high and thick? Do you regret owing me a personal favor for this? Mo Lan glanced at him, with a thorn in his words, women, after all, are grudge animals.

"I have benefited a lot from the trip to Xiu Nanxing, and the biggest gain is the last assassination, you don't need to remind me from time to time, I won't forget the favor I owe you." Chen is not a lie, his goal is to challenge the peak, instead of taking shit luck to complete the assassination mission, it is better to let him meet a real opponent, not to mention that although the task failed, he is still promoted, which is no different from completing the task, Chen Fang suddenly felt that the promotion system of the Mercenary Association was still very humane.

"Just don't pay your bills then." Mo Lan turned her gaze to the cabin, and through the endless stars, she seemed to see the Augar Empire of her dreams, which was the heaven in her heart.

The whispers of the two in the back cabin all fell in the eyes of those who cared, and the men smiled knowingly, everything was silent, and at the same time they were more convinced of Susan's divination, peach blossom, peach blossom.

The woman's mentality is more complicated, Linnie still remains silent, she is extremely enchanting, it is precisely because of this coldness that she has a unique charm, like the fusion of ice and fire.

Susan couldn't stop laughing, it was only a few days of hard work, and let this kid hook up with another one, in fact, she knew very well that Chen Fang was not a person who liked to mess with flowers and grass, and he was even a little jerky about that kind of relationship, but it was his indifference, but it had a fatal attraction to women, in addition, no one would deny that he was an excellent man.

In addition to the two of them, Lu Lingxue also quietly glanced at the back cabin, although it was a hurried glance, she still caught Chen Fang's bad deeds. Born in an aristocratic family, her first feeling is that Chen Fang is a playboy, the reason is very simple, just by virtue of Chen Fang's status as a student of the Imperial Academy, he will definitely have unlimited scenery in the future, not to mention that this guy is still a special enrollment, and he is favored by Dr. Townsend, and it is inevitable that he will become a nobleman, such a person will not have any results with Mo Lan at all, to put it bluntly, he is just playing.

Chen Fang didn't know that a simple chat with his friends could cause countless conjectures, so he lazily leaned on the bulkhead and fell asleep after a while.

Chen Fang did not return to the empire with the rescue group, and couldn't wait to come to the mercenary association and completed the learning of the proficiency level double gun, which was the same as the first time, and was carried out simultaneously with the recovery of enhanced physical fitness.

From the point of view of skills, the proficiency-level dual-gun skills are obviously a notch, and they can't be compared with the entry-level content, unless they are people who can skillfully use the dual guns, and the training has little effect, perhaps this is the reason why the proficiency-level tutorial can only be learned at the third level, but, even if you don't use it, it doesn't matter, the role of skill training is not to let mercenaries master skills, but to force the tutorial into the trainee's memory through hypnosis, which can be slowly comprehended in future battles, anyway, it won't be wasted, of course, Unless it is a superb tyrant like Chen Fang, no one wants to waste valuable merit points and train skills that cannot be used for a while.

Chen Fang's obstacle lies in physical skills, and the proficiency-level double-gun skills are more inclined to melee combat, and there are many difficult movements, more than ninety-five percent of melee actions, his physique cannot be completed, at present, he can only hope for the effect of physical enhancement and recovery.

Compared with the first one, the effect of the second enhancement is not only not weakened, but better, this conclusion makes Chen Fang ecstatic, but he also knows that this is mostly due to his long-term weakness of the physique, resulting in a slightly worse effect of the first enhancement, in the subsequent enhancement, the effect will gradually decrease, this is the law, it is impossible for someone to get to the later stage, the better the strengthening effect, just as it is impossible for someone to live younger and younger, and even if the effect of strengthening is good, the physique is still far from reaching the level of a normal person, Not enough for him to use other enhancements.

To say that the last time he came to strengthen his physique, Chen Fang was still able to be unhurried or impatient, because he couldn't use the brain domain, even if he strengthened his agility and strength, it would not be useful when driving a mecha. But now it's different, even if the slightest improvement in physical skills is made, it can have an immediate effect when piloting the mecha, and his mood can be described as impatient.

"Don't expect me to give you agility training. Friends to friends, don't question the quality of my profession. You should be clear why physique enhancement is only used by mercenaries and a small number of armies, its strength varies depending on the person's acceptance of hypnosis, and it is difficult to control it precisely, which poses a great risk, even if the mercenary who meets the requirements of the system, there are times when it fails. What's more, even if the process goes smoothly, the intensity is not something that a normal person can bear, and your physique can't even reach the level of a normal person, so you dare to take risks? Strengthened agility is the most demanding of all reinforcements, and those who receive reinforcement must have good qualities in strength and flexibility. Susan clasped her arms to her chest, with a helpless look, anyone who knows a little bit knows that her professional ethics are a lie, and if she is an unfamiliar person, she doesn't care if the human constitution is acceptable or not, failure will break a few bones at most, the merit value will still be deducted, and the money will still be collected, and there will be no loss to her.

"It's not just flexibility and strength, it's coordination, nerve reflexes." Chen Fang first tried to convince Susan that enhanced agility was the result of careful consideration, not a whim, and then threw out his plan.

"I understand, you stopped me from doing physique enhancement for my consideration, but can you listen to my plan first, I also know that strengthening agility is one of the higher risks among all kinds of reinforcement, because it essentially includes a lot of originally independent content, my plan is to strengthen the independent content separately, so that the risk can be reduced, I can strengthen coordination first, nerve reflex."

"The approach you're proposing is scientific, and not only does it reduce risk, but it must be much better than directly strengthening agile. But I'd rather believe that this is a trick to convince me to use, do you know how much merit is worth? As a hypnotist, Susan also has extraordinary attainments in psychology, and of course she can see that Chen Fangyan is insincere.

"Do you know how much merit I have?" Chen Fang asked rhetorically and casually transmitted the data to Susan's terminal.

"Your merit value is indeed a lot, but with your method of strengthening, it will soon be overstretched, of course, this is not the point, you can't strengthen at all, look into my eyes and tell me, if I strengthen for you and fail, are you ready to ask for a second strengthening." Susan was secretly taken aback by the data, but she was more certain about Chen's motives.

Although Chen Fang didn't know much about hypnotists, he also knew that it was impossible to lie in their eyes without being noticed, so he simply admitted it.

Susan sighed: "I admit that due to hypnosis and other reasons, every time the physique is strengthened, the strength of the mercenaries is different, so the same enhancement cannot be successful once, it does not mean that it will fail next time, but this is all relative to the normal situation, you must at least meet the minimum physical fitness standards for physical strengthening, your physique is far inferior to ordinary people, even if you repeat it hundreds of times, thousands of times, you may not be able to succeed once, your approach is simply masochistic." Although I am a hypnotist, I often help people to strengthen, and I know a little bit about the details of strengthening, and if your constitution is overwhelmed, the strengthening will stop immediately. Enhancements that stop halfway through the process are almost ineffective, and you get nothing but pain, and you have to pay merit points for nothing. ”

Chen Fang was silent.

Susan continued: "Have you ever thought about it? Why can you stand out in the competition of the Hall Star and become a dark horse, even if you strengthen your physical skills to the level of the third-order assassination system, it is impossible to have this achievement, but you can do it with a fishman, manual control, smart combat is your style, why do you have to go far, you have to compete with others in physical skills? ”

Chen Fang shook his head and said: "That's not the victory I want, and I don't want to compete with others in terms of physical skills, so I'll be satisfied if I can reach a normal level." ”

Susan thought for a moment and said, "I'm a layman in mecha combat, maybe you're right, but too weak physical skills have become a bottleneck for you to pilot mechas." Still, I insist that you are different from others in mech. You're not stronger than Anson, and you're not as agile as Linny, but you're better than all of them. As for the kind of battle you said you don't like in Hallstar, I can tell you the answer if you have the qualification of a senior psychotherapist, many people are like you, they don't care about the advantages they have, and they like to pursue things that they don't have, but the truth is that everyone is talented, people can't change their talents, they can only change their minds, like their talents, you are just a happy person, like your career, and you will be a successful person. ”

Chen Fang smiled: "It's too wasteful for you to be a hypnotist, you should be a psychologist." ”

Susan knew that this was sarcasm, but she was completely unmoved: "I have the qualifications of a psychiatrist, but I don't like to talk, so I had to change careers, and in addition, I always think that people are more cute and real when they are hypnotized." We are all laymen, so why not listen to the advice of a medical professional. ”

Chen Fang knew that all normal doctors would not agree to the reinforcement, so he hurriedly stopped: "Doctors are all exaggerated guys, what they are best at is alarmism, otherwise how can they make money?" ”

Before the words fell, Aya's image had already appeared on the data terminal, although I didn't know why Susan was looking for him, but he listened to Chen Fang's words truly, and said-for-tat: "In my opinion, few patients are normal, either they are indifferent to their bodies and take the doctor's instructions as nagging, or they are overly nervous about their bodies, and they are suspicious when they have a minor illness, and you obviously belong to the former." ”

Susan giggled and handed over the two's problem to Aya.

Before she could finish speaking, Aya interrupted impatiently: "Isn't it just to strengthen the physique, just let him be." ”

As a doctor of the mercenary association, he will never be verbose, if the patient wants to die, just let him die, not to mention that there are very few cases of strengthening the physique that lead to death, with Chen Fang's physique, it is very likely that a fracture will occur within three minutes, at best, a few bones will be broken, she can't understand why her friend asked him for such a trivial matter.

"He's my friend, and I'm teammates with Anson now." Susan said vaguely that she had a lot of friends, not to mention Anson's face, so Aya didn't think too much about it.

Since it's a friend, the advice is completely different, agility enhancement, what's the joke? She didn't even give Chen a ten-thousandth hope, and it was impossible to find one of the ten thousand eggs that was harder than a stone, and the conclusion was so simple.

As a professional doctor, Aya's advice is naturally also professional, and there is no doubt that what makes Chen Fang depressed is that this woman did not object to strengthening herself less than a minute ago.

The doctors of the Mercenary Association are really different from the outside world, and in addition, Chen Fang also realizes that professionals need to be respected, and offending them will often pay a great price, and having a good relationship with them can get a lot of benefits.

Chen Fang asked very modestly: "I apologize for my recklessness before, as a friend, can I ask, with my current physique, is there any way to strengthen my physique?" ”

Aya didn't see it, and said bluntly: "According to my guess, you were infected with the virus at a very young age, and the pain ran through your developmental stage, it stands to reason that you should have developed deformities because of this, think about it, your family is very advantageous, so you can spend a lot of wealth, and use various means to help you avoid that situation, of course, you have also suffered a lot for this." ”

Chen Fang interrupted: "What are you going to say?" ”

Aya rolled her eyes and said in a friend's tone, "I mean, you're lucky that you didn't have a deformity, and although your physique is fragile, as long as you recover slowly, you can still live a normal life." ”

Chen Fang was stunned: "What does it mean to live a normal life?" ”

Aya said bluntly: "Why ask knowingly? I think you also guessed what I meant, you missed the golden stage of growth in the pain, and now it is difficult to make up for it, and it is impossible for your physique to return to the level of a normal person, let alone use the extreme means of physique enhancement, with your physique, you should not have joined the mercenary in the first place. ”

Hearing the depressing words, Chen Fang laughed instead: "But I'm already a fourth-order mercenary, although I'm not excellent, I'm barely passable." Even if it is another patient, you should guide the method of recovery, and you tell me, with my current constitution, what is the way to recover as much as possible? ”

Aya said seriously: "Exercise, exercise is necessary to restore the physique, and physical strength is also exercise, but it is an extreme way, not suitable for you who have been recovering from a long illness and have a fragile physique. The second is nutrition, for you, adequate nutrition is more effective than any exercise, you are missing the golden season of development, and you can't affect growth because of lack of nutrition. In addition, your constitution is weakened due to long-term illness, and your body needs a lot of nutrients during the recovery phase. Also, strengthening the recovery of your physique will help you, so you might as well stick to it. ”

Chen Fang never dreamed that the biggest help for him to recover his physique was nutrition, which was eating, and he actually gnawed on compressed biscuits at this juncture, and even had a meal, without a meal, this was simply suicide in disguise. In addition, he did ignore the ordinary training method, although the ordinary physical exercise is not as effective as the physical strengthening, but he can make a suitable plan according to his own physical condition, which is just right for his current situation.

According to Aya, people can hardly get all the nutrients they need from their daily diet, and the combination of unscientific diets may lead to problems such as overnutrition. Of course, for normal people, even if they lack certain nutrients, it is not a big deal, but to meet the special requirements of Chen Fang, you need to use your brains.

First of all, you must sacrifice the appetite, fortunately, Chen Fang is not picky about the diet, when eating simply becomes the intake of nutrients, it is much easier to find a way, a kind of liquid food in a tube is recommended to Chen Fang, each meal to eat a tube can not only satisfy the stomach, also

It can meet the nutritional needs of normal people, and as an abnormal person, it is best to eat more than two tubes per meal.

In the past, this thing was specially provided for astronauts to prevent long-term stay in space, malnutrition caused by a single diet, with the advent of the era of big aviation, the astronaut profession gradually disappeared, and this kind of food then flowed into the people, people living in remote areas or star fields, explorers, are willing to carry some as emergency rations. There are also some special classes that like this stuff, such as mercenaries. Regular troops generally do not use this food unless they are on a special mission, as it is cheap and not easy to carry.

Chen Fang has seen Linni use similar food, but Aya recommends high-end goods, unless it is a seriously brain-dead mercenary, and he is never willing to spend a lot of money to buy this kind of thing, a preliminary estimate is that a tube of this liquid food is enough to invite fox friends to find a good restaurant to eat three or five meals.

Exercise, Aya's recommended form of exercise is dancing, and judging by her serious look, this is obviously not a joke.

Chen Fang still tried to ask: "Is there any other way?" ”

Aya seemed to anticipate him and smiled, "You are currently suitable for small loads, long exercises, using forty-six simple independent exercises, each lasting twenty minutes, and six hours a day, and you can achieve the same effect, however, I doubt that you will be able to persevere, but I recommend that anyone who goes to dance can persevere." ”

Dancing and mecha, two things that are not related to each other, are linked, and even a fool can know that the difference between the two is that one is boring and the other is full of fun. Truth be told, six hours a day is not easy, and the uninformed will think that the person who does it is crazy.

There is nothing wrong with mastering a technique, not to mention, dancing is a compulsory course for nobles, Chen Fang is not aware of it because of the disease, since sooner or later you have to learn something, it is better to learn late than early, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.

Chen Fang first acknowledged Aya's suggestion and expressed his gratitude, and then said to Susan casually: "I want a dance skill training?" ”

There was no reply, and Chen Fang saw the strange look on Susan's face.

"What's the problem?"

"There's a real problem, as far as I know, the association doesn't have a dance curriculum." As Susan couldn't help but chuckle, Aya couldn't help but be slightly moved, in their opinion, it was not strange that they couldn't dance, and it was interesting that someone actually linked dancing and skill training, and said it seriously.

After seeing the vast amount of skill training, Chen Fang always thought that it was all-encompassing, but in fact, the association's tutorials did contain many tutorials that had nothing to do with combat, but there was no such thing as dancing.

"Oh, forget it." Chen Fang touched his head, although he didn't say anything, those who were familiar with him knew that this meant leaving.

"Wait, although the association doesn't have a dance tutorial, I can teach you privately, and it's free, and of course you don't need merit points." Susan was obviously unwilling to let go of the embarrassing prey, and from her smiling expression, Chen Fang couldn't see any sincerity.

"Excuse me." Chen escaped unexpectedly.

Behind him, the exaggerated laughter of two women was heard.

"Susan, are you interested in this kid?" Tired of laughing, Aya asked suddenly.

"Why do you say that?" Susan's perfunctory heart.

"I can see that you mean what you mean when you say you want to teach him to dance." Aya got serious.

"It's not interesting, I feel very happy when I play with this kid, he is a student of the Imperial Academy, and we are not all the way, we can't go together, don't worry, I have a sense of proportion for this kind of thing, but Linnie, seems to be tempted by this kid." Susan blushed and pleaded.

"What? Even the frozen man had moments of emotion. Aya's stunning blue eyes shone with a strange brilliance.

"She is also a woman, living alone for so many years, what is strange about meeting an excellent man? I think she's serious. As an expert in psychology, Susan will not be fooled by Linny's coldness, a woman is a woman after all.

Although there was no welcome ceremony for the official or the academy, the crowd still crowded the official airport of the imperial capital.

The rescue team has been noisy recently, and the reporters are of course unwilling to let go of the precious opportunity, not to mention that there are many powerful bigwigs in the team to greet them, the most eye-catching is naturally the Secretary of State, standing next to him, and the one who whispers to him is Lu Beiyan, who holds heavy troops and is a real powerful figure, and Lu Lingxue's father. There were also the Empire's Chancellors, Chancellors, Parliamentarians, and so on.

Welcoming a rescue team doesn't have to be so grand, it's called building momentum, and everyone wants their children to appear more in the media, at least not to lose the limelight.

As the members of the rescue team stepped off the spaceship one after another, Lu Beiyan's face became more and more ugly, even when he saw his baby daughter, he only barely squeezed out a smile, which was regarded as an explanation to the media camera, not that he didn't hurt his daughter, Lu Lingxue collided with him for the first time a few days ago, or for an indigenous girl, but he was angry to death, and what annoyed him the most was that in the rescue team, he didn't see the person he wanted to see.

"What about my son-in-law? Didn't you say he's on the rescue team too? "Lu Beiyan didn't come to build momentum for his daughter, he came to see his son-in-law, and Chen Fang's grandfather was coerced by him.

It's not that Lu Beiyan is domineering, he doesn't give face to the secretary of state, people will give the most beautiful daughter of the empire to your grandson, halfway through, your precious grandson first became sick and became a waste, and then ran away from home, the city was full of wind and rain, and experienced so many twists and turns on the way, the Lu family didn't say a word, and now that people are back, they say that they are sick and cured, and the marriage date is approaching, and people are asking to see their son-in-law, isn't this excessive? Who called this old man mysterious, when it comes to seeing people, he pushes and pushes, which makes people have to suspect that his precious grandson has something that can't see the light.
