Chapter 15, How Old Are You?
"Alright, let's start undressing!" Karin looked at Li De and Leona with bad intentions.
Li De's face was red again, and he unbuttoned his shirt a little shyly.
"Huh! I've seen your file, but the age is not written there. How old are you? Sue sΓΉ sister! Karin seemed to like teasing Reid like that. Although he was wearing a battle armor, he didn't forget to put on a sultry S-shape.
"Well, I think I'm 18 years old. I was picked up by an old man, and I don't know how big it is. I only know that I picked it up about 17 years ago, when I was less than a year old. Li De said.
He looked at Karin again and asked, "How old are you, sister?" Li De also learned from Karin and said with a snort. The result of Dong Shi Xiaofeng makes people laugh and cry.
"Me? Thirty-six..."
Li De looked shocked and looked at Karin in disbelief. Karin's delicate face looks like she is in her twenties.
βCοΌβ Karin put on a mischievous look and giggled. "You can't ask a girl's age casually!"
The faces of the two men in the small room were covered with black lines.
Li De seemed to feel that he would never be able to fight this woman. After all, he had never talked to a girl before more than Karin, and his emotional intelligence in this area was far behind the other party.
"And how old are you?" Karin turned to look at Leona.
"Fifteen." Liona said lightly.
So young! This is the first feeling in everyone's heart. Because the standard for conscription in the federal army is eighteen years old, how can this fifteen-year-old girl appear in the barracks?
"Thirty-two D." Liona added.
Hearing this, Karin looked viciously at Leona's chest. The other two men had black lines on their faces. And Liona took off her coat and proved that what she said was true.
Li De put on the power armor for the first time, and it felt very weird. The innermost layer clinging to his skin is the inner layer of synthetic material, the inner armor is made of synthetic metal woven material, and the outermost layer is the protective armor made of alloy.
He could clearly feel that every movement he made had to be light. Because of the power assist function of the mecha, the strength of his every movement is amplified.
The inner armor is elastic, can be close to the skin, has a certain protective ability, and can also feedback the wearer's movements to the computer, so as to produce the effect of power assistance.
The outer armor is made of alloy fiber, which is very hard and fits to all parts of the outer part of the inner armor, protecting the body of the warrior. At the same time, the outer armor also combined with a power unit to increase the strength of the limbs and torso.
His fingers and skin were close to the inner armor, feeling this feeling, Li De slowly picked up his weapon. It felt like the weapon had become weightless.
"You can turn off the auxiliary power first, so it's just a heavy combat suit for you." Karin said as she spoke.
On the other side, Leona showed a trace of doubt and excitement on her face after putting on the armor. I'm also getting used to the feeling of a new combat uniform.
Leona looked at the power armor she was wearing, and then at the two sabers in her hands, and her eyes lit up.
"Yes, you can use them after putting on the armor. Doesn't it feel great? β
"Awesome!" Liona said.
"You can go outside and get used to it. That is the task this morning. Karin said.
Heinrich opened the door and walked out, followed by Lide and Leona. Karin didn't follow, but turned and went back to her own room through another door.
Under Heinrich's supervision, Reed and Leona began training in hand-to-hand combat in power armor. This armor is very strong, and it is not afraid of being bruised in battle.
Li De was very unsuitable for this armor at first, and his hands and feet were not coordinated. After about an hour of activity, you can do your movements freely.
And Leona seemed to be much better, and after getting used to it a little, she practiced with Heinrich for a while, and it was two knives against long knives, and there was a burst of sparks and metal clashing.
As for the sparring between Li De and Liona after that, it also became a one-sided state. No, I don't know, Li De found out that this little girl's speed can only be described as non-human.
Perhaps it was because Liona had completely mastered the performance of the battle armor, and the speed she exerted Li De could only barely keep up with her eyes, and her body had no ability to react at all, which was simply a process of being abused.
"Have you been a little too much lately?" General Douglas's voice came from Karin's communicator.
"That's no way! You see, that guy's emotional intelligence is negative! I've done this to him, but do you see his reaction? If it weren't for me, he'd still be mining! β
"Hey~! Is that really good? After all, there is a good chance that he is the child of that person. β
Karin seemed to have a hint of sadness when she heard General Douglas say "that man", but quickly recovered. "It's just a possibility, it's not sure yet."
"Not sure? Didn't you try his hand at it yourself? What do you think of his melee kung fu as a miner? β
"Huh! Now is the most difficult time for the family, and grandpa also hopes to cultivate him. And now it seems that he, a kid with no emotional intelligence, seems to be very easy to deceive. Oh hehehe! β
"Hey~! Hopefully Niselde knows what he's doing. With that, Douglas turned off the communicator.
Over the next few days, both Lide and Leona were trained by Heinrich to familiarize themselves with their new armor and weapons. Only mornings and evenings can be rested every day.
A week of training was quickly over. On the evening of the last day, after finishing the training, Li De and Leona stood at the door of Barracks No. 6, not wearing combat armor, but wearing military uniforms with the rest of Karin's team.
Karin's team is all assembled.
"Well, today we can relax for the day. We've been given new assignments. Karin looked at the team members in front of her who were ready to go, and said with a stern face, "I will give you a pre-battle meeting tomorrow after lunch, and the place is Barracks No. 6." Now, disband! β
The next day, after lunch, Karin immediately gathered the whole team and issued a mission order. This mission was the first mission for Li De and Lionna, and as newcomers, they were extremely nervous.
In the army, various tasks are assigned to designated teams every day. There are reconnaissance areas, there are intelligence deliveries, there are assassinations, etc., which are divided into four grades from D to A according to the difficulty of the program.
It is said that the Alliance army has only had one S-class mission in its hundreds of years of history, and that is to assassinate the Zerg Empress, and only one person has completed that mission. That person is the legendary god of war, and the S-class mission has also become an admirable existence.
Given that there are two newcomers to Karin's group, the mission given to them by the military department this time is a C-class mission. In Li De's view, it's just a redundant waste task.
In this era when interstellar travel is as convenient as eating, is it still necessary to use manual delivery of information?
However, Karin immediately retorted. Every operation has the intention of the military department, and now the situation is complicated, the front line has discovered the reconnaissance plane of the Purdo people, and the intelligence transmitted by the traditional army system makes the military department feel a little unsafe.
On the contrary, it is information delivered by hand, because of the vast area of the continent, the chance of being blocked is very small. Taking a step back, important information can't be transmitted through simple electronic encryption, because you can't monitor whether it's stolen during transmission.
As for physical transmission, it is in the event of an accident, as long as the text is destroyed, the security of information can be guaranteed, which is also the usual practice of the military department.
So, after spending a whole afternoon preparing the route, Karin asked Philip and Maca to go to the quartermaster department to collect supplies, Heinrich and Lied, and Liona to check the equipment, and go to bed herself.
The planned departure time was midnight, and Karin used the phrase "The enemy of women when staying up late, you need to be prepared in advance." With such an excuse, she went back to the barracks, leaving Leona, who was also a girl, to check the status of the various equipment (including the status of each magazine) one by one to ensure that they were in the best performance.
Every time you go on a mission, you will have a variety of portable equipment in addition to your main weapon.
Maca was a heavy machine gunner, and he couldn't hold anything other than the huge Chakarin multi-barrel machine gun weighing more than 40 kilograms and thousands of rounds of ammunition, except for a small 9mm caliber pistol and a magazine that he carried with him.
Philip's main weapon was an assault rifle, and he carried a one-handed UZ submachine gun with him, which was high in terms of rate of fire and stability, that is, the effective range was shorter, but the advantage was that the ammunition was relatively light.
At the same time, Philip was also responsible for half of Maca's rations and water, and the other half was stuffed into Lide's bag.
Li De took his semi-automatic rifle, loaded a dozen magazines, and picked out a large-caliber 357 pistol and a box of ammunition. After thinking about it, he strapped a small dagger to his leg, a couple of howitzers, a couple of grenades. Coupled with the fact that his and Maca's rations and water were already in the field, he felt that his big bag was almost unable to fit these things.
Leona cleaned up relatively simply. Rations and water were minimal, and in her words, she didn't eat much herself, so she could have brought a little less.
Li De thought to himself, you don't eat much, you can bring us more! But seeing Leona's cold face, she still didn't say anything.
In terms of weapons, Leona focused on taking care of her two **s, which were placed on both sides of her left and right thighs, and brought a few grenades and a small pistol, without a long weapon.
Karin and Heinrich's equipment was prepared by Heinrich alone. He chose a light sniper rifle for Karin, which was more suitable for jungle combat, as he would pass through a jungle area on the way.
At the same time, Heinrich brought himself an automatic rifle and a dozen magazines, a long knife straddling his waist. Two 9mm caliber pistols, some necessary equipment for survival in the wild, etc., also packed two full bags.
