bang.
After a dull crash, Meng Dongdong was thrown over the shoulder by a female coach in the soft-padded indoor wrestling arena, and fell to the ground easily.
She breathed vigorously, constantly expelling the excessive carbon dioxide from her body, but the massive consumption of physical energy made it impossible for her to do this.
Hypoxia, discomfort, and wanting to vomit.
All kinds of negative feelings keep rising.
"I can't do it anymore," Meng Dongdong said with difficulty as he lay on the ground.
"In close combat, what you need is instantaneous explosive power, as well as the key timing and angle of exerting force." The female coach said with a gentle face, "The time is too short, and you won't be able to master many skills, so according to your father's request, we only Practice a skill. If you practice a skill thoroughly and can use it, it will play a huge role in critical moments.”
“I understand” Meng Dongdong nodded.
"Get up, I heard that the opponent you are facing is also a novice, so as long as you practice this move repeatedly, you should be able to defeat the opponent easily." The coach smiled.
Meng Dongdong gritted her teeth. She knew that if she wanted to survive, she had to train with all her strength during this period.
She also started practicing firearms at the designated shooting range. This time, she decided that as soon as she entered a blind spot, she would find an opportunity to directly draw her gun and kill another person.
After all, there is an obvious physical gap between men and women, and she must make up for this gap as much as possible.
"As long as you understand. Come again." When the female coach saw Meng Dongdong standing up, she immediately took two steps back to simulate a suitable distance.
Just outside the room, through the glass window, a fat middle-aged man with gray hair was looking at Meng Dongdong who was training inside with soft eyes.
“Boss.” At this time, a bald man approached and got behind him.
“What’s going on?” The middle-aged man was Meng Dongdong’s father, Meng Mingcheng.
"The person we were looking for failed. One of them was found, but the other person's information was scrawled and access rights were blocked. Our people were also warned by stronger hackers." The bald man explained in a low voice.
Meng Mingcheng was silent for a moment.
“It seems that the water is very deep here.”
“Then boss, what should we do?” the bald man asked with a frown.
“We can’t find a stronger hacker in a short period of time. Since the information cannot be found, let’s get other things first. Body armor, helmets, and quick physical replenishment.” Meng Mingcheng ordered.
"We are already working on it. Also, do we need a flying instrument?" Baldhead asked tentatively.
"Feiyi is very strong, but Dongdong can't use it. If the distance is too close, it's better to specialize in spears and fighting." Meng Mingcheng saw it very clearly.
"Understood."
"Go ahead, thank you for your hard work. After you finish this, the club will give you 10 shares."
“Thank you, boss!” The bald man replied quickly with a happy face.
“Do it well, you are the person I trust most, and I will not treat you badly!” Meng Mingcheng turned around and patted him on the shoulder.
The hacker incident made him understand that the other party might also have the strength to support him, so he might also have body armor or something like that.
As a result, ordinary firearms may not be useful and must be replaced with more powerful ones.
He is not worried that the other party will replace it with a stronger body armor. In this era where weapons are far more powerful than protection, the best body armor that is heavy enough for ordinary people to bear can only barely block the least powerful pistol bullets.
Just like this, bullets can break people's bones through bulletproof vests.
As for equipment that can block more powerful pistol bullets, it is not a weight that ordinary people can support.

Chingrun flower base.
In the greenhouse, densely packed white wisteria flowers hang from rectangular shelves.
The entire greenhouse is divided into three vertical lines.
The one on the far right is full of white-flowered wisteria.
Between the three vertical lines are passages for people to walk in and out.
At this time, a little girl with ponytails in a yellow T-shirt and jeans was leading a young boy with ordinary black hair, slowly walking along the passage on the right.
The two of them were approaching towards the white-flowered wisteria.
“Boss, how much do you plan to buy at one time? You said before that it would be used for building a private flower garden, right? To be honest, if you buy less of our white-flowered wisteria, you won’t be able to maintain the scale effect, and it won’t look impressive enough.
If the boss can buy more than a hundred saplings at one time and spread them in an area, and wait for them to bloom, the shock will be completely different. We had a customer before who bought 500 ten-year-old saplings at one time. , and now that place has become a check-in point for Internet celebrities. "
The little girl is still talking about the benefits of buying more.
Li Chengyi approached these white-flowered wisterias, stepped forward, stretched out his hand, and gently touched a bunch of hanging flowers.
hiss.
A cool breath quickly flowed into the back of his hand.
‘Flower Scale Clothes Evolution Level: 2%’
‘3%’
‘5%’
‘7%’
A series of information continued to pour in. At a level that only Li Chengyi could see, the back of his right hand continued to light up with a faint purple light.
While dealing with the little girl's sales, he kept changing flowers to absorb the flower energy.
The degree of evolution increased little by little, and it soon reached double digits.
That stream of cool air continues to flow into the back of the hand, and from time to time it flows into the whole body like it did at the beginning.
But as the flower energy continued to pour in, the purple light on the back of the hand became brighter and brighter, becoming more and more dazzling.
Soon, the evolution level reached 20%, but the little girl became impatient. She talked for a long time, and her saliva was almost dry. However, the guy in front of her was still indifferent and didn't look like she wanted to buy it at all.
“Boss, if you are worried that the survival rate is too low, you can buy older saplings. We also have eight-year-old and ten-year-old saplings here, and we also have 20-year-old saplings, but they are more expensive.”
“Let me take a look at it as a whole first and then talk about it.” Li Chengyi nodded seriously, “I would like to ask, can your already flowering tree vines be transplanted directly?”
"Of course not, but the cutting technology we use has the same effect as whole tree transplantation. Although there is an impact on the survival rate, the latest automatic care devices can make it easy for any layman who doesn't know how to plant trees and flowers. To make a living, now if the boss buys together, he can get a 20% discount for more than ten sets."
Li Chengyi just kept asking here and there, and then kept touching the strings of white-flowered wisteria. He felt that the degree of evolution was rapidly increasing, and he became more and more expectant.
‘51%’ ‘55%’
‘58%’
At this time, the data has increased to more than fifty. What makes Li Chengyi happy is that when he walks to the back shelf, these white-flowered wisterias provide much more evolution than the ones in front.
“Is the white-flowered wisteria here different from the one in front?” he asked softly.
“Yes, here are flowers and trees that are over fifteen years old. Of course, the prices are higher.” The little girl answered.
“That’s it.” Li Chengyi kept reaching out to touch some of them. Some were too high to touch, but most of them could be reached.
The evolution rate is increasing faster and faster.
He was thoughtful.
The maintenance and evolution of flower scale coats are still too slow if you have to grow them yourself. After discovering that the amount of flower energy was related to the year, he understood that his best way was to directly take over and acquire a ready-made flower base.
Money still needs money.
Time passed little by little, and the little girl took Li Chengyi around until he touched all the white-flowered wisteria, and the evolution level finally reached 100.
Li Chengyicai left with unfinished thoughts.
At this time, the Flower of Evil has completed the basic evolution of Flower Scale Clothes, and the next step is Evil Thoughts.
‘The way to absorb evil thoughts is to make people who have evil thoughts towards themselves change their thoughts so that the evil thoughts disappear completely. So, how do I tell if someone has evil thoughts toward me? ’
With this doubt, Li Chengyi rejected the little girl's suggestion to buy some flowers. With his eyes about to collapse, he waved his hand and turned away shamelessly.
It lasted more than two hours and I didn’t even buy a single flower seedling.
Li Chengyi also knew that he was a bit unkind, so he didn't look back, trotted faster, and soon called a car to return to the city.
Although Syndra's salary is paid daily, it's only more than 600 a day, so I haven't saved much money at all. The key is that there is no place to grow it.
At this point, the evolution is complete, and all it takes is one evil thought to complete the entire evolution of Hua Lin Yi.
But with such an evil thought, after Li Chengyi returned, he observed, searched and tried everywhere while receiving training.
But except for the occasional inexplicable occurrence of evil thoughts when I go home on the street, the rest has not changed at all.
Time passes day by day.
He has gradually adapted to the training at Hongjin Company.
Stamina, sprinting, firearm use and dodge, and simple combat have all improved a lot.
Of course, it is still far from what the teacher said is qualified, but at least it has a basic foundation.
Especially being able to determine the type of firearm used by the opponent, whether it is automatic, the number of bullets, etc., is of great significance.
Memorizing by rote and having the teacher carefully explain the characteristics of various pistols, Li Chengyi felt somewhat confident.
More than a month has passed.
Finally, news came from Syndra that the blind spot he described had been found to be the most realistic place.
Finding a realistic prototype is a key step in finding a way to leave completely.
Li Chengyi now knows a lot about blind spots through the company. As soon as he heard the news, he rushed to the company as soon as possible.
Dong dong dong.
In the office with floor-to-ceiling windows, Sindra was holding a cup of green tea. The steaming water steamed onto his face, somewhat blurring his vision.
Hearing the knock on the door, he turned slightly and looked in the direction of the door.
"Come in."
There is a crisp sound.
Li Chengyi came in wearing a black sportswear. The material of his clothes was not cotton, but a kind of fine and reflective technical fabric. There was a gold snake-like logo mark on the left chest. It was very thin and a zipper in the middle was pulled down halfway.
“Boss, are you sure the news is OK?”
As soon as he entered the door, he couldn't wait to ask.
After all, this is related to whether he can really get out of this dead end, so he cannot help but not pay attention to it.
“I spent a lot of money through personal connections, searched many regional cities, and finally found some clues.” Sindra said softly.
He turned around, took out something similar to the small flashlight from last time, and turned it on against the wall.
With a snap, the picture was projected.
An old color photo is projected onto the wall.
That is an oblique photo of an underground garage.
Pale lights, long linear lights, and horizontal segment lights divide the entire garage into two, forming two areas.
On the black and somewhat reflective ground, you can vaguely see the blurred white parking lines.
The ceiling is also black.
On both sides of the wall, you can see small red maintenance room doors, one at a distance.
“That’s it!” The moment Li Chengyi saw the photo, a numbness suddenly came to his heart, making his entire face numb.
“Exactly the same! It’s exactly the same as the underground garage where I entered!”
“The parking lines on the ground, the color of the ceiling, two different lights, the small doors on the side walls, and the load-bearing round stone columns”
“That’s right!” Syndra also cheered up. "This underground garage is called Grius Parking Lot."
“Yes, our people only found this information, but not the actual parking lot.” Sindra picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
“Why?” Li Chengyi asked doubtfully. "Now that we know the name, with the level of scientific and technological information circulation in this era, it's impossible to find it somewhere, right?"
"Because." Syndra paused, "This underground garage was completely buried due to an earthquake more than eighty years ago."
