Chapter 115: Return and New Plans

"Looks like we can go, there's nothing we need here. Custer sat in the back seat and rubbed his brow.

"That's right, we don't have anything to ......" Shen Chao was just about to answer, but there was a new loud noise in the distance. He took out his binoculars and looked, and Godzilla on the Brooklyn Bridge in the distance was trapped by a dense network of cables. Due to the heavy rain, he could only see Godzilla's silhouette clearly, but the roar of fighter jets in the distance made him sure that this was the last scene in the movie.

"It's time for us to go. With that, he took the lead in getting out of the car, creating a one-person-high space-time gate next to him, and striding in. He didn't look at the final battle. Custer didn't hesitate to come over, only Alice walked in with her head down after watching Godzilla get hit by the first two missiles.

Within a few minutes, the pitch-black space-time portal was completely gone. And the few people who returned to the base finally put their minds at ease.

"The speed at which this space-time gate disappears is still an issue, and if we use it urgently in the future, our enemies are likely to chase after it. Custer commented as he watched the space-time gate disappear completely.

"Don't worry, when we're ready for this break, we'll get ready for Plan M." When the plan is completed, we will not have to worry about any threat from conventional forces. Shen Chao patted him on the shoulder and comforted.

"Okay, but we still need to discuss the details of the plan. Custer seemed reluctant to agree, as if he didn't really like the "M plan".

"What is Plan M?" Alice asked, wiping her hair with a towel. They had come back in the rain, and much of it had been blown into the floor of the Crossing Zone by the gales before the Space-Time Gate was gone.

"Let's wait until tomorrow to talk about this, baby, we all need a good night's sleep." Shen Chao patted her little face, then pulled her into his arms, said hello to Custer and walked directly to the living area.

"And ...... these things?" After Alice was hugged by him, she pointed to the large gold bars in front of her, which were extremely messy, covering almost the entire crossing area.

"We'll have to deal with this stuff tomorrow. As he spoke, he picked up Alice and walked back to the bedroom. Only Custer unloaded his weapons and ammunition according to the regulations, put them into storage, and then went to sleep. When he returned to his room, he turned on the stereo, listened to the soothing symphony, and slowly fell asleep with a smile on his face.

The next day, Shen Chao and Custer got up early in the morning for morning exercise as usual, and unlike before, Alice also joined them in the morning exercise. She changed into her tracksuit and went for a morning jog on the treadmill with two big men.

"You can get up so early?" It's amazing! Custer said in a rather exaggerated tone when he saw Alice appear with Shen Chao in the washing area. An angry Alice almost got into a fight with him. But in the end, they were persuaded by Shen Chao before the fight, they had a full schedule today, and they didn't have time to play like children.

After finishing the morning wash, the three of them walked through the crossing area full of gold and arrived at the large fitness area. Prepare for a routine training routine. Shen Chao and Custer carried their weights as usual, set the speed and mileage of the treadmill, and prepared for a morning run. Alice had wanted to learn from the treadmill like they did, and this time the mileage was set to be a half marathon. But Shen Chao came over to stop her.

"Sorry, baby, you're going to run the whole race. He said apologetically, and then set the mileage of the treadmill she was going to use to 42 kilometers and the speed to 30 kilometers per hour! Approaching the maximum speed of this treadmill. …,

"30 km/h? I'm not a horse! Alice was in a hurry when she saw the speed he had set. The speed set by Shen Chao didn't treat her as a human being at all. You know, even the world's best marathon runners can only complete a marathon at a speed of about 20 kilometers per hour. As a result, Shen Chao directly skipped the world-class horizontal line and set an impossible goal for her.

"Don't be afraid, baby, you're a superwoman, and your body can handle it." And you don't have a customized sandbag or anything now, so, in order to ensure the amount of exercise, I have to set a high standard for you......" Shen Chao hugged her and coaxed her, and finally persuaded her to believe in herself and break the world record.

"Okay, but if I do, you're going to tell me what Plan M is." Alice made this request before getting on the treadmill. Although she was persuaded by Shen Chao, she was not ready to agree unconditionally.

: "Deal. Shen Chao replied without hesitation, he was not prepared to hide it from Alice, but this was a plan that he and Custer had given up, so he had never told Alice before. Even if Alice doesn't ask, he'll have a showdown after dealing with the gold.

Alice took a few deep breaths and stepped onto the treadmill. Sensing that the treadmill she stepped on immediately adjusted its speed to the previous setting, Alice could only immediately run wild on the treadmill at the speed of an ordinary sprint. Began her attempt at the world record.

"You really think she can beat your record. It wasn't that long ago that you broke the world record. Custer turned his head to look at Alice on the treadmill next to him and asked Shen Chao.

"My girlfriend is very strong, and she is not as heavy as me......" Shen Chao looked at Alice next to him and said. After saying that, he stepped on the treadmill himself.

After an hour and 14 minutes, the exhausted Alice finally finished the whole race, she smiled, left the treadmill, and then fell directly into Shen Chao's arms after a few steps.

"I succeeded, I knew I could succeed......" Although Alice was so tired that she could barely walk, Shen Chao still helped her walk in the base for a few minutes, so that her blood pressure slowly lowered. Although the previous strength test let her know that Alice's body is very strong, today's test confirmed that his Superwoman also has limits and needs to be taken care of by him.

"So, what exactly is Project M?" Why haven't you said that before? After walking for a few minutes, Alice, who had recovered some strength, collapsed on a massage table in the fitness area and asked, Shen Chao was giving him a massage to relax his muscles.

"It's one of many traversal plans I've made, and Custer has made quite a few similar plans. But it's a big plan, it's not like we've been doing small operations before, where we're going to go and come back in a few days. If Plan M can be fully implemented and all mission objectives are achieved, then it will most likely take us 1 year. Shen Chao introduced while massaging Alice's seemingly weak shoulder.

"A year? So which world are we going to? Alice turned over on the massage table and asked, the capillaries on her face were still a little congested, and her fair skin was slightly red, looking extremely attractive.

"It's a game world, a world within a game called Mass Effect. In the world that I have proven to be traversable, the level of technological development in this world is relatively high. Shen Chao said as he moved his hand to Alice's waist and continued to massage.

"Why does Custer think we shouldn't go there?" Alice surprisingly didn't use the name Russian.

"Because it's dangerous there. Humans are not the only intelligent beings in that world. Humans aren't the most powerful race in the galaxy there. There are not many areas that can be safely controlled. The galaxy is filled with all kinds of interstellar pirates and criminals. It's like the ocean of the Age of Discovery, chaotic and dangerous. Shen Chao skipped the complicated background information and introduced her to the dangers there. …,

"So, what were we going to do in the past?" Alice continued.

"To put it simply, as we did before, when we enter, we first have to get as many high-tech weapons and equipment as possible to improve the combat effectiveness of our team. That's the number one goal. There are a lot of goals for the whole M plan, and this is the easiest part. ”

"Due to the advanced military technology in the world of Mass Effect, the interstellar expansion of various races also requires a large number of civilians to complete. So there's a huge legal market for civilian weapons and a lot of spacecraft that can be purchased......," Shen Chao said, explaining his idea, in which they had a good chance of achieving most of the goals of Project M without fighting, as long as they executed it well.

"But didn't you say you didn't want to go to a world that was too dangerous?" Alice took his hand with some concern and asked, Shen Chao's plan sounded big and powerful. But she felt that the plan might be a little too big.

"That's right, but you're feeling dangerous because you don't understand the setting and storyline of the Mass Effect world. By the time you know, you won't be so opposed to the plan. Wouldn't Custer agree to that plan now? Besides, we're not in a safe place. Shen Chao voiced his concerns.

"The worlds we've been to are mostly dangerous, and we need to do a lot of preparation to get back to those worlds. Take, for example, your world, where we are already in direct conflict with Ambrera and the U.S. military. Although Ambrera won't bother us for too long when we get back, the U.S. government won't shake hands with us, and we need all-round technological leadership to fight it. ”

Their previous journeys have been fast-in, fast-out, fast-moving, dangerous, and have made them dangerous "celebrities" in several worlds. Once you go back, you will face different levels of danger.
