Nantianmen Space Station, a conference room.

"Suppose, let's use this marquis orangutan as a hostage, talk to the Empire, and let Ji Xinghe go to the Imperial Star......"

"Why Ji Xinghe? Why not let Jackson go? Why don't you let Cavill, the ace of Eagle Continent, go? ”

"They can't learn to be angry, they don't even know kung fu."

"Ji Xinghe can learn it? Is the Emperor an idiot? Why does it teach Ji Xinghe Qi? ”

"We can give it a try, the emperor is not willing to teach, but Ji Xinghe can learn it himself, and he can learn more information. If Ji Xinghe is sure that he can't learn it, then we will give up studying this power. ”

"How to ensure the safety issue, a marquis orangutan, the empire grabs a handful, and there is only one Ji Xinghe."

"Yes, there is indeed only one Ji Xinghe, but we don't just have that marquis orangutan, we also have a prince orangutan. Prince Orangutan, it should be more important than Ji Xinghe, right? ”

This sentence silenced the conference room, the Federation has been fighting in the alien planet and the empire for more than 20 years, and so far the highest position of captive is a prince, and there is also a general and an imperial orangutan who is said to be the crown prince, all of whom were killed by Li Yuanba.

Although many people felt pity afterwards, the situation at that time was really life-and-death, and the consequence of Li Yuanba's withdrawal was that he was beaten to death by an orangutan.

"That prince orangutan can't ask anything, and there is no progress in research, so there is no point in killing it, it is better to exchange it for Ji Xinghe and this marquis orangutan. Two for one, Captain Ji Xinghe...... It's important, but he's only a captain, he's just a specialty, he's sixty-six years old......"

"It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, I don't think it makes any sense. What difference does it make for us to learn to be angry and not to learn to be angry? The imperial orangutan will be angry, but they can't beat our armor-piercing warriors when they don't have armor-piercing, and the prince orangutan who will be angry will die if he shoots a dozen shots. ”

"It makes sense, the power of qi is not really important, but it can be the beginning of negotiations, and we, in fact, can talk to the empire."

"Talk? We've killed so many people, and you're telling me now that you're going to talk to them? Do you want to talk to our dead brothers, you want to talk to them? ”

"In the past, we didn't have the conditions to talk, but this time we have, they attacked Base 3 at all costs, and the losses were very large, I don't believe they can afford it. We could not talk about it before, but Base 3 is now untenable, it could be destroyed at any time, the location of Base 6 has been exposed, and their next target must be Base 6, and we can't defend it. Having lost two bases in a row, we had to talk to them. ”

The room was silent again.

The beginning of this war was a long time ago for many of those present, more than twenty years ago, the Imperial army suddenly appeared on another planet, and the war started directly, and the two sides have never tried to negotiate peace since then.

But what is the concept of a war that has been fought for more than twenty years?

Even if you have been fighting on the Azure Star for more than 20 years, the resources consumed are incalculable, let alone crossing a distance of at least 50 million kilometers to come to the alien planet.

There are only 50,000 available mechs for 300,000 active mecha warriors, and there are no spare mechas in the real sense of the word for a special grade like Jackson......

The Confederation is already impoverished.

"Now is the best time to negotiate, both our losses and those of the Empire are very large, but because it is they who attack at all costs, they have suffered greater losses than ours. If we don't talk about it now, when they destroy our Base Six at all costs, then they won't talk to us about it with their Jump Gate technology. ”

"I don't agree."

"I think I can try."

"There is no point, this is a war of extinction, and negotiations will only give them time to breathe a sigh of relief."

"But we also need to breathe a sigh of relief, do you know how much money your fleet knocked out in the last air raid? Five tens of billions, you can not think about where the money comes from, but if you run out of money, your fleet will become an ornament. ”

"We have killed 50,000 orangutans and monkeys."

"There are billions of orangutans and monkeys in the empire, and they can be all soldiers, but how many 50 billion do we have?"

"Last year, the GDP of the whole federation was 100 trillion."

"Are you stupid to fight? GDP is GDP, not that we can come up with a hundred trillion every year to fight this war. This year's military budget has come out, only 11.23 trillion, of which Longzhou took 5.21 trillion, Yingzhou took 4.13 trillion, other continents don't want to take more, but they can't take it anymore, you know? ”

"They just don't want to take it. The GDP of Longzhou is 25 trillion, and the GDP of Eagle Continent is 21 trillion, which adds up to less than half of the GDP of the whole federation, but the military expenditure of Longzhou and Yingzhou is nine-tenths of the military expenditure of the whole federation, and the remaining half is only one-tenth? ”

"It's not something we should be discussing, we're going to talk about it, we don't have the money to fight. Once Base 3 and Base 6 are destroyed, the cost of transporting resources will increase dramatically, and we will have to talk to them. ”

“……”

The controversy lasted for a long time, and the issue gradually evolved from letting Ji Xinghe go to the Imperial Star to try to learn the power of Qi, to negotiating with the Empire.

In the midst of this war between the Federation and the Empire, when it comes to negotiations, Ji Xinghe's importance has dropped dramatically, and his life and his hatred are not worth mentioning.

Even many of the soldiers who are now fighting on the battlefield are also not worth mentioning, they are a number that can be increased at any time and can be reduced at any time for some people.

Half an hour later, the Federation's commander-in-chief in the alien war, five-star Admiral Li Anbang, finally spoke.

"Captain Ji Xinghe, how are you doing?"

The people in the meeting room who were arguing fell silent, and only the people involved answered immediately.

"Now the communication of Base Six is in a state of disconnection, and according to the information we got half an hour ago, Captain Ji Xinghe did not have the power of qi. However, according to Captain Ji Xinghe himself, his physical fitness seems to have improved somewhat, and he still needs to wait for the latest medical examination information. ”

"Physical improvement? Is it because of gas, or is it because of electricity? ”

"Because of electricity, Captain Ji Xinghe was very sure in his report half an hour ago that he didn't have the power of qi, so it was because of the power of electricity. However, for specific situations, you still need to wait for a physical examination. ”

"Is the equipment at Base Six sufficient?"

"Not enough, we proposed to transport Captain Ji Xinghe to our space station with a single starship, but Captain Ji Xinghe refused, saying he needed the orangutan."

"Bring that orangutan with you?"

"Captain Ji Xinghe said that he needs the gravity environment of the alien planet, whether it is the weightless environment or the Azure Star gravity environment simulated by our space station, it is not suitable for him to continue his research."

"Is that so?"

"We can't make a judgment, but we have contacted three instructors who have practiced Gang Jin, and according to the relevant records of Nuwa's experiments with Captain Ji Xinghe, they have conducted repeated simulation experiments on Azure Star, the space station, and alien planets."

Li Anbang pondered for a while and then said, "Make a backup plan for negotiations, and when the communication is restored, ask Captain Ji Xinghe's opinion." If he needs more time, tell him how much time we have left. The candidate for the backup plan should not be limited to Captain Ji Xinghe. ”

"Yes."

The meeting ended, but the debate did not end, from the Nantianmen space station to the Azure Star, from the military to the politicians, this kind of thing could not get a final result in a few days.

So all of this has nothing to do with Ji Xinghe for the time being.

Base 6, Medical District.

"Captain Ji Xinghe, your body has been tested by us, and there is no problem, regarding your physical aspect...... We really can't detect the changes you're talking about. ”

"Didn't you?"

Ji Xinghe frowned, and with the help of Nurse Wang, he reached out and took off all the sensor patches on his body, and got dressed.

"Yes, we can't detect it. So we think there are two possibilities, one is that your physical fitness has really improved, but this improvement is not obvious, and the reason for the physical improvement is that our existing equipment cannot detect it. ”

Another possibility is the psychological delusion that occurs after a sustained electric shock. Electric shocks can be high, so you feel like your fitness is improving and your body is younger, but like a stimulant, it doesn't last long. Maybe after a few days, you'll feel a sudden tiredness. ”

Ji Xinghe looked at the physical examination report handed to him by the doctor, he actually couldn't understand it.

"What about cell viability? What about my metabolic rate? Assimilation and dissimilation, did not there any change after these tests? ”

"Yes, at the moment, we really haven't detected any changes."

"Okay, then I'll come back tomorrow."

"You mean, you're going to take some practice?"

"Yes, at least I don't have any problems with my body right now, do I?"

"But as we said, there's another possibility."

"I know what I know."

When Ji Xinghe was about to leave, Nurse Wang worriedly persuaded him: "Uncle Ji, in fact, you don't need to be like this, you are already a special grade, you are already very strong." ”

"It's okay, I know it."

Ji Xinghe repeated this sentence again, Nurse Wang and these people did not know the existence of qi, and it was still a high secret so far, so these people in the medical area thought that he chose to practice with electricity in order to become stronger.

Leaving the ward, Jackson, who was guarding outside, came over, but because there were doctors and nurses in the place, he didn't say anything.

When they left the medical area and reached the uninhabited corridor, Jackson finally couldn't help but ask, "Lao Ji, is it really feasible?" ”

"What works?"

"Practice with electricity, practice qi."

"Not yet, I can't find the direction at all."

"But didn't you say your fitness has improved?"

"I felt so, but they said it couldn't be detected."

"What then?"

"I go to the training area and do a fitness test, and after I get the results, I practice for a few more days and then I do a fitness test."

"I'll accompany you, I also want to try to practice with electricity."

"You don't know how to practice, what kind of electricity do you bring?"

"You teach me."

"There's no time."

After arriving at the training area, Ji Xinghe began the physical fitness test, and in this regard, the No. 6 base lacked nothing.

The first event is a ten-kilometer run, and now there is no plan to build an ace warrior, and Ji Xinghe is not worried that someone will force him to go to the battlefield, so there is no need to hide his physical fitness.

Then, the people in the training area were shocked.

"Ten kilometers, 27 minutes and 09 seconds?"

"Lao Ji is faster than me, what is the world record?"

"At what age?"

"What age do you know?"

"I don't know, but Nuwa does."

"Nuwa."

The shocked people called out to the base's artificial intelligence system, and received an answer with incredible precision.

"The 10-kilometer world record, male, 26 minutes and 11 seconds under 30, 26 minutes 27 seconds for 40 years old, 30 minutes 45 seconds for 50 years old, 34 minutes 38 seconds for 65 years old, 38 minutes 02 seconds for 70 years old, 1 hour 2 minutes 19 seconds for 90 years old."

"Female, under 30 years old, 29 minutes 15 seconds......"

These world records are only an average of three or four seconds higher than those set more than 60 years ago.

When the people in the training area were shocked, Ji Xinghe didn't stop, he was still running, because he found that ten kilometers was not enough for him to run, so he wanted to run a marathon.

Jackson's heart was itching, although Ji Xinghe hadn't finished running, he felt that Ji Xinghe was absolutely fine.

"What is the world record for the marathon? of different ages. ”
