That night, Shi Chen, who was in severe physical and mental pain, lay on the floor and stared at the ceiling speechlessly. He finally understood that the female knight's understanding of Liya's so-called "be gentle" was that she would not beat him to death.

Fortunately, another initial effect of the gene activation fluid is to accelerate cell division. Most of the injuries on his body healed themselves in a short time. As for the injuries that were difficult to heal after the drug's effect weakened, after taking the female knight

After using the ointment, it began to heal gradually on its own.

After feeling the surging power flowing out of his body, Shi Chen felt that his efforts this night were worth it. Now his health points have officially exceeded 1.5, which is already what ordinary Titans can do without loading genetic components.

The peak level of physical fitness that can be achieved.

Just before, Xiaochu had reported to him the progress and time required for this genetic optimization. In total, it would take almost five months. In theory, this optimization could bring his health to 2.8.

According to common sense, first-order genetic components can only increase the health value between 1 and 2, and few people can naturally increase it by more than a full point by loading components.

But if Xiaochu's report to Shi Chen can meet expectations, then this time his genetic optimization will be directly increased by 1.5! If this is known to the people of the Landistan family, I am afraid that he will be dragged into the research institute's test bench for slices.

impulse.

According to Xiaochu's analysis, a large part of the reason for this is because the path Shi Chen chose himself is a direct result of constantly correcting the ratio of his dominant and latent genes during the genetic optimization process. The paternal genes are slowly swallowing up and transforming the maternal chromosomes.

, and improve their own genetic sequence.

In other words, after the gene optimization is completed this time, Shi Chen will completely get rid of the name of the lowest level G-type gene, and can continue to optimize by loading components to achieve the purpose of sublimating life.

This is tantamount to a shot in the arm for Shi Chen, who has always longed for strength.

But now that there are internal and external troubles, the time left for him seems to be really running out.

Starting from that night, Shi Chen's small low-rent apartment had another female tenant. Apart from being a little crowded, there didn't seem to be much difference.

It's just that Shi Chen always felt that the female knight was always inexplicably hostile to him, especially when he was talking to Liya, but Shi Chen didn't pay much attention to it. After all, women always hold grudges and

Being petty, Shi Chen attributed her hostility to the fact that he had insulted the other person's innocence. Thinking like this, Shi Chen felt much better.

After undergoing a three-day training program at the Coca Machinery Research Institute, he became the executive secretary of the Coca Machinery Research Institute, or to be more precise, Suyecangna.

Sometimes Shi Chen thinks about it, life is really a wonderful thing, you never know what will happen tomorrow.

At the beginning, both Coca Machinery and Suyecangna, the national goddess, were existences that were beyond Shi Chen's reach. But now, not only has he successfully entered the Coca Machinery Research Institute, but he has also crossed paths with that woman.

.

Although the process was not so pleasant, and the other party's position was destined to be in opposition because of Liya, this did not hinder Shi Chen's spiritual sigh.

I just don’t know what the relationship of the singer who became the twin queens of the Federation with Suyezang Na is like in real life. If it is as different from the rumors as Suyezang Na, then Shi Chen’s childhood dream will become a reality.

It was completely shattered.

I took the subway out of the 13th arrondissement, then transferred to the Shinkansen, which was still under construction, entered the newly built satellite city, followed the avenue all the way north, and arrived at the office building of the Coca Machinery Research Institute.

The front desk lady's smile was still sweet, but Shi Chen's identity had completely changed. The two of them smiled and nodded at each other, then walked towards their workplace.

However, when I arrived at Suyecangna's office, I was somewhat surprised to find that the new governor was not there, and the huge reading office was empty.

Not seeing the woman with an overwhelming aura, Shi Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It suddenly dawned on her that she was also the governor of Titan after all. Although she was also the technical consultant of Coca Machinery, she must have been in name only and really cared about her.

It is only about the research progress of the institute and the people who may appear to hinder the progress.

Moreover, the air crash at Yutian Airport three days ago will probably keep the new governor busy for a while.

There were already some documents piled up on the desk that she needed to review. Shi Chen walked over and thought about it. Since he was the woman's executive secretary, it was his duty to review the documents and screen them. It should be okay to take a look.

.

Shi Chen casually picked up the top file and opened it gently. It turned out to be the detailed data of Guca's latest model of mecha. At the end, he clearly stated that he hoped that Suyecangna would have time to go to the underground research institute to experience it in person and give it to her.

Issue an evaluation report.

Then he looked through the documents on the table one after another, and most of them were similar.

At first, Shi Chen was leisurely flipping through the pages, but after all, there were times when his eyes were tired. When he was about to take a short break, he discovered that there was a document wrapped in a file bag at the bottom of the document, with a red oil stamp on it.

, marked with an 's'.

This means that this is a top-secret document and needs to be opened by the person concerned.

Shi Chen couldn't help but change his expression while holding the file bag, and finally put it down with a wry smile. He didn't want to be directly blocked by Coca Machine and the woman just because of his temporary curiosity.

Intuitively, he believed that this confidential document was probably related to the thing he dug up in the Bond Mine, and it was also the key to the entire Titan situation.

But this is not his biggest concern at the moment. What he can do now is to save money as soon as possible to improve his strength and escape from Titan before the Knights of the Round Table and Suyezana discover Liya and the others.

And these all take time.

Shi Chen opened the holographic workbench with complicated emotions, but Suyechanna's holographic image suddenly popped up, almost startling Shi Chen.

It turned out to be an image left by the new governor. In the image, she still looked aloof, and vaguely mentioned that if signs of Shi Chen betraying her again were found, the consequences would be serious. Of course, she later told Shi Chen to work hard.

Don't live up to her expectations.

Typical of stuffing a sweet date into a stick, a masterful way of managing people.

"I just don't know what your expression will be like when you know that I was a third-rate spy before you recruited me, and I still don't know your old acquaintance." Shi Chen murmured with some gloating.

After finishing the work at hand, Shi Chen left the reading office and took the elevator to the thirteenth floor of the underground research base.

Shi Chen saw the sign on the elevator. There were one hundred and sixty-two floors underground, but with his authority, he could only enter the first twenty floors.

It has to be said that Suyecang Na's sudden disruption actually helped Shi Chen to some extent.

Now that he has the authority of his position, he can freely enter and exit some non-confidential places of the Coca Research Institute, including the large gravimeter that Shi Chen needs now.

The role of a large gravimeter is self-evident. On the one hand, it can prevent physical degradation caused by long-term work on low-gravity planets. Another, more important function is to test the combat performance of mechas on planets with different gravity.

The identification card was swiped on the access control, and the heavy door opened, revealing the true face of the Coca Research Institute.

Along the way, many Coca employees in gray uniforms came and went in a hurry. When they saw the strange face of Shi Chen, they showed a strange look and nodded in greeting.

The coca machinery underground research institute that was built originally brought in many experts and scholars from the capital star circle. Now, with the recruitment of talents in batches, it has also begun to gather talents from Titan.

But it seems that the people engaged in scientific research are a bit reticent. Although they are not indifferent, they are used to silence, which makes Shi Chen, who has worked in the Red Mansion for several months, a little uncomfortable.

After stopping a middle-aged employee to inquire, Shi Chen finally found his destination.

He came to a test room controlled by a gravity meter, inserted his ID card again, and applied for entry. After waiting for a few seconds, the light on the door turned green, and he was finally able to enter.

The test room is extremely empty. Everything in it is new and rarely used. From the most sophisticated machine repair tools to large machine tool consoles, everything is there.

When Shi Chen spotted a huge object, his eyes froze for a moment.

After confirming that the machine displayed in the corner of the spacious room was a real mecha, Shi Chen was extremely shocked.

The total height of the mecha is 5.3 meters, and many protective shells have been dismantled, revealing the complex structure inside, with many cables for test data hanging on it.

Only when you get close and touch its cold and hard body can you truly feel the power of this mechanical weapon.

After the initial shock, Shi Chen gradually came back to his senses and fell into surprise again. After all, this was his first real contact with a mecha.

Although I got a glimpse of the new governor from a distance last time when he took office, it was far less shocking than the shock of actually being at his feet.

And with his current authority, although he didn't explicitly say whether he could tamper with mechas, he didn't say he couldn't touch them.

Judging from the appearance, this should be the latest model developed by Coca, and I don’t know if it is the one intended for Suyecangna to test.

I rubbed my hands that were trembling with excitement, and like a nimble monkey, I picked up the uneven parts due to peeling off the outer shell and jumped into the production warehouse.

The moment he sat on it, the mecha suddenly sounded an electronic voice: "Tester, please insert the identification card."

Shi Chen nervously put his own card in, fearing that he would be thrown out by the mecha due to lack of authority.

But after a brief moment of anxiety, the electronic message announced his ID: "Identity approved, test begins."

All the indicators in the cockpit lit up one after another, a cold helmet fell on his head, and then Shi Chen felt some cold metal probes pressing against his scalp.

After a brief shiver of electricity entering his body, Shi Chen suddenly realized that his perspective had changed. He looked up and saw an empty hall, but all the scenery seemed to have become several times smaller.

Then he discovered that it was not that the world had become smaller, but that he had become larger.

It turns out that this is similar to how current holographic games operate, and that helmet should be a neural connection technology.

It's just that he has never been exposed to mechas and doesn't know what to do next.

Then he tried to lift his legs, and immediately found that this huge creature took the first step like an arm commanding him.

After discovering this, Shi Chen was as excited as a child who discovered a new toy.

However, when he took this step, the ground suddenly shook slightly, and then the power in the room suddenly went out one after another.

So this test mecha, which was not loaded with energy, collapsed due to the loss of power just after taking half a step.

boom!

There was a loud bang in the dark testing room.

Shi Chen's first step on the path of mecha was aborted.
Chapter completed!
