“Private Harrison Clark! Step forward!”
Familiar voice, familiar tone, familiar face.
Smelling the unique fresh scent of the air at the Black Bear Training Base in his nostrils, Harrison slowly opened his eyes with a smile.
Daniel Thompson in front of him had wide angry eyes and an annoyed expression, “What the hell are you smiling at!”
Harrison liked this sense of familiarity.
And it was good news, whether it was good or bad.
The good part was that since he was still a recruit at the Black Bear Training Base, it meant that Earth was still ruled by humans.
The bad part was that he didn’t know where the Star had gone.
Has it not been born?
Or it didn’t become enemies with humans and lived in peace with each other?
While thinking random thoughts in his head, Harrison twisted his body lightly and just dodged the incoming boot.
It was the eighth time he was back at the Black Bear Training Base, and Daniel still hadn’t changed, even his habit of kicking people hadn’t changed.
And brother Lion was still so terrible, he couldn’t even land a kick.
Next up should be the familiar running laps, right?
“You dare dodge? Go run your laps!”
Harrison snickered since it was indeed the same old three-pronged plan, without any new tricks.
It seemed that brother Lion hadn’t evolved into the never-surrendering, strongest human instructor like in the last timeline.
He lifted his leg and ran to the side, casually asking, “Brother Lion, how many laps am I running?”
Daniel behind him exploded again, “Ten laps! Who told you to call me brother Lion? What kind of style is that! Call me instructor! Add another ten laps!” Harrison almost didn’t react at all.
He was very happy at the moment, so much so that he got carried away and snapped his fingers, “Twenty laps? That easy?”
Daniel snorted and said, “Easy? You have 20 minutes to finish, if you can’t do it, you keep running, a hundred laps.”
Harrison found it hilarious, and secretly thought that even two hundred laps would be no problem.
Five seconds later, he went blank.
What the fuck is up with this playground!
Why is it so huge!
He looked around, only to see a vast endless plain.
The area under the Black Bear at least covered hundreds of square kilometers of land that had been transformed into plains.
This training ground area was divided into two major sections.
One was the new recruit physical training area where he was located, and the other area was a special training area shrouded behind an opaque energy field wall.
There was only one running track in the entire new recruit physical training area, but Harrison could hardly see the boundaries of the track.
The track stretched all the way to the edge of the horizon.
He looked down at the multifunctional wristwatch on his wrist, which should be the individual information system.
While running, Harrison fiddled with it, and in just over ten seconds, he activated the individual auxiliary function.
Some energy-like threads spread from the wristwatch and along his skin to the back of his neck, before winding around to his eyes and covering his retina, forming an AR view projection that didn’t block his vision.
The Star’s specialty in the previous timeline had unexpectedly been implemented by a basic individual information auxiliary device in this timeline.
Harrison had mixed feelings.
He was both happy and annoyed.
Happy that he immediately felt the progress of technology, and annoyed that his AR view projection showed the condition of the track.
A huge ellipse appeared in the upper right corner of his field of vision, and the small yellow dot representing him was “slowly” moving on the ellipse, just like how he used to view the entire track when playing Need for Speed.
Yes, although he was running fast, it still seemed slow compared to this excessively long track.
The total length of the track was 8.848 kilometers!
“Black Bear Training Base new recruit physical training track, the longest in all the new recruit bases in the army, equipped with energy replenishment, gravity enhancement, self-adaptive simulation of various environments, climate conditions and other human-friendly functions. In memory of the once tallest mountain peak of humans, the total length is designed at 8.848 kilometers.”
This was the description Harrison saw in the information introduction, which was very touching.
So the total length of twenty laps is 176.96 kilometers!
Daniel’s intention was for him to run over a hundred miles in twenty minutes, with an average speed of 530 kilometers per hour, which is faster than Bugatti Veyron!
Normally at this speed, the wind resistance on the human body could blow the eyelids over, but this smart track would adjust the surrounding air to synchronize with the runner, achieving a wind resistance-free mode, which was really a human-friendly function.
But even so, Harrison was still a bit overwhelmed.
It’s not that he couldn’t do it, but that the pressure was huge for him as a Galactic Human.
After all, after his awakening, his physical enhancement wasn’t much even with the 36% increase.
Harrison felt that Daniel had a dark side and had purposely set a goal that was impossible for anyone to achieve. The real aim was to force them to run a hundred laps, over eight hundred kilometers.
Oh well, he had to put on a brave face and get through it.
Under pressure, Harrison decided to abandon his plan to keep an eye on and use the individual equipment to learn about the current era while running. Instead, he focused on running like a whirlwind on the playground.
Five minutes later, his individual equipment detected changes in his electrolyte status, showing that his physical strength had dropped to 80%. Then, a gadget flew over to the side and threw a tube towards his face.
Harrison ducked his head and dodged it, and a prompt came into his ear, “Private Harrison Clark, please take the energy liquid in time to replenish your physical strength, otherwise, you will be unable to complete the task.”
Only then did Harrison realize that this was the supplied feature of the track, which was quite human-friendly, except for the fact that the straw had almost slapped him in the face.
He spread his hands to grab the tube and put it in his mouth to suck.
The ball next to him kept hovering as the green liquid level inside the ball rapidly fell, looking like aerial refueling.
The energy liquid tasted good and turned into glucose at an extremely fast speed after ingestion, which was transported throughout the body. It worked well with the digestive system functions of the Galactic Human level.
His slight fatigue was quickly alleviated.
After finishing this ball, the tube automatically retracted, and a small hole opened up in the ground next to the track, and the gadget leisurely flew in.
A minute later, an electronic sound came into Harrison’s ear again, “Private Harrison Clark has performed exceptionally well, and is granted a special reward. Gravity level increased to 2G.”
His body suddenly sank, and he had barely prepared himself, causing Harrison’s shoulders to sag a bit.
This 2G was very different from the instantaneous acceleration he was used to, as it was constantly pressing down on his body.
It started to feel strenuous.
Harrison: “You call this a reward?”
Before long, a new human-friendly reward came again.
You get to walk the rugged road.
Now Harrison had to maintain an ultra-high speed advance while jumping up and down between the rocks that simulated mountainous terrain.
“Stop fucking rewarding me!”
However…]
“Private Harrison Clark has performed extremely well. Granted a special reward for extreme weather simulation, heavy rain mode.”Suddenly, numerous nozzles emerged on both sides of the runway, spraying water droplets like fountains.
In 2G gravity, these droplets didn’t reach high, but they fell at high speed, hitting the face as if it were torrential rain.
19 minutes and 37 seconds later, a drenched Harrison Clark finally huffed and puffed his way to the finish line.
Although not too painful, he rarely found himself in such a miserable state during military training.
This deceptive runway had some tricks up its sleeve.
Especially in the last section, where gravity was increased to 3G, followed by a sudden blizzard, and the ground turned into slippery frozen soil. They stumbled and slid, occasionally finding themselves on high-resistance rubber ground that wouldn’t let them skid freely.
Although it was difficult, Harrison Clark managed to finish, feeling somewhat smug in his heart.
Trying to sabotage me?
No way!
Harrison Clark stood by the queue, “Reporting to the instructor! I’m done running!”
He spoke loudly, ready to greet the astonished expressions of his peers with a touch of class.
Daniel Thompson, who was instructing other recruits on armored combat techniques, turned around and said, “Oh, not bad, join the line.”
Harrison Clark was taken aback-
Not bad?
What does that mean?
Is it just “not bad”?
Where’s the cheering?
The awe?
Did I perform poorly?
Am I not fierce enough?
Harrison Clark looked at his comrades.
He found their expressions quite calm, with no astonishment at all!
It wasn’t that he was uncomfortable not being the center of attention. It was just that the reality was so different from what he expected, leaving him not knowing how to react.
Harrison Clark stepped into the line with a bunch of black question marks in his head, listening carefully to the lecture like the others.
After listening for a while, he started to relax a bit.
Although the individual combat mode had changed, it hadn’t deviated from the essence of multi-functional equipment usage.
This seemed to be the inevitable path for armed forces trapped in the Solar System to develop.
His past experience with various battle armors was still useful, and he should be able to master new techniques faster than others.
As morning training finally ended, Harrison Clark followed Daniel Thompson. “Instructor, am I really just ‘not bad’?”
Daniel Thompson nodded, “Yeah, the passing standard for Galaxy Warriors on the Black Bear Training Base multi-functional runway is 20 laps within 19 minutes and 40 seconds. You guys are part of the Galaxy Warrior Reserve Force, and your gene awakening degree is 36%. Should you have compared yourself to ordinary carrier soldiers?”
Harrison Clark was left in confusion on the spot.
So you really knew my awakening degree was 36%, and your calm attitude wasn’t an act, but I’m just ordinary again.
“Shoo, stop bothering me. I still need to prepare simulation materials for you guys.”
Daniel Thompson waved his hand impatiently, like swatting away a fly.
Seeing that Harrison Clark hadn’t left, Daniel Thompson walked away first.
Harrison Clark stood still, taking deep breaths.
I need to calm down and readjust to this situation.
The once king and first warrior of mankind was now experiencing mixed emotions, with a rather complicated mindset.
He’d gotten what he wanted.
It seemed that there really were many Galactic Humans within the human army this time.
That terrifying 36% gene awakening degree wasn’t enough to impress a grassroots instructor like Daniel Thompson.
Of course, this was good news, but he couldn’t help feeling a faint sadness in his heart that refused to dissipate.
Harrison Clark chuckled bitterly.
Damn it, I should be happy. There’s no need to feel lost.
Can’t I just be a “salted fish” and enjoy myself?
But when he thought of how he’d previously dominated the world, he began to feel the gap between the two experiences, twisting his emotions.
“Harrison Clark, don’t be angry with Instructor Hill. He’s like that – blunt as a hammer. But he’s actually a pretty good guy at heart.”
A burly man appeared in front of him, speaking in a thick voice.
Harrison Clark looked up and saw it was Marthus.
“Oh, I know. By the way, what’s your awakening degree, Marthus?”
Marthus: “Lower than yours, just 35.81%.”
Harrison Clark twitched the corner of his mouth, “Oh, I see. So who has the highest degree?”
Marthus pointed at Harrison Clark’s individual auxiliary equipment. “You can check it yourself. Let’s go, and have lunch.”
As Harrison Clark followed the crowd while reading the list displayed on his equipment.
Hiss…
The list had a clear ranking.
Needham Brown: 37.66%.
Barnes Gilbert: 37.05%.
Mr. Green: 36.65%
Nora Camp: 36.64%.
Martha Owen: 36.61%.
Bernal Connor, Levi Martin, O’Brien, Dillon …
Matilda, Amelia Johnson, Lauren Danni Fox…
Horatio, Charles Louis, Emmanuel Berto, Gaius Julius, Felix Yeoman…
Oliver Yeoman…
A long string of names filled the list.
As for his own name, it was nowhere near the top 500.
Harrison Clark’s name was displayed separately at the bottom, with a total ranking of 176,571st.
It’s over!
