Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 71 Tong Youyou

Xiao Zhuang was stumbling and struggling to run forward. He didn't know how long he had been running or how much distance was left.

At this moment, Xiao Zhuang was just running mechanically, his consciousness gradually fading.

"!"

Feeling someone grab his arm, Xiao Zhuang could vaguely make out the person's appearance through his steamy goggles.

"Changning?"

Xiao Zhuang wasn't sure if it was Chang Ning; his goggles were covered in water vapor, making his vision extremely poor.

“It’s me. Don’t talk now and save your energy. After we run down the mountain, we’ll have to assemble the guns. I’m afraid you won’t even have the strength to pick up the parts.”

Chang Ning's calm words gave Xiao Zhuang a sense of security deep in his heart. If this had happened before, he would never have believed that he would have such feelings for a man. It was too shameful!

Fortunately, the gas mask was in place, so Chang Ning didn't see Xiao Zhuang's embarrassed expression and blushing cheeks.

"Then what about you? I can't drag you down with me."

Judging from Chang Ning's steady and powerful voice, Xiao Zhuang knew that Chang Ning still had the strength.

He thought about his own weight and the burden he was carrying; if Chang Ning were to help him carry it all, it would be a huge drain on Chang Ning's physical strength.

He would feel guilty if Chang Ning were eliminated because of this.

Zhuang Yan is not the kind of person who would implicate his comrades!

"Don't you know my physical strength? I can afford it, don't worry."

We're already way behind; are you sure you want to continue this discussion with me?

Seeing that Xiao Zhuang was about to say something, Chang Ning quickly interrupted him, saying that if they continued, they would be eliminated.

"I will try my best not to implicate you."

Xiao Zhuang supported himself, trying not to rely too much on Chang Ning and to avoid putting too much of his weight on Chang Ning.

The two of them supported each other as they ran toward the finish line. With Chang Ning's help, they were much faster, even faster than Xiao Zhuang running alone.

"Can't this guy feel his weight? If I remember correctly, Chang Ning weighs about fifty kilograms."

When Chang Ning and Xiao Zhuang overtook the ostrich and the medic, the ostrich was stunned once again. It knew Chang Ning had abnormal physical strength, but this was just too shocking.

"More than that. Adding Xiao Zhuang's portion of the weight, it's conservatively estimated that Chang Ning is currently carrying around 80 or 90 kilograms."

The medic, who was a step behind the ostrich, said with a wry smile, "We're all born of the same parents, so why is there such a big difference between us?"

"Alright, instead of discussing Changning, you two should go for a run."

Qiangzi caught up at some point and, seeing that the ostrich and the medic still had time to discuss Chang Ning, couldn't help but chime in.

Qiangzi's reminder made the two realize that they were still training, and the abnormal high school team said that those who fell behind would be eliminated.

The two, as if waking from a dream, quickly sped up.

"what!"

The ostrich suddenly let out a loud roar and took off running.

"Hey, what a rascal!"

Old Pao helped Chen Xiwa up beside him and looked at the ostrich that had disappeared in a flash, and said with a smile.

Ostrich's height was among the tallest in the selection and training camp, making him quite recognizable. This allowed him to be spotted at a glance among all the trainees wearing protective suits and gas masks.

Even the ostrich recognized him, so it goes without saying who was following closely behind him.

Ever since the nickname "ostrich" spread in the dormitory, the sanitation worker and the ostrich have become inseparable, often joking around and bringing a lot of laughter to everyone.

"Hi~"

Seeing Chang Ning's outburst, Gray Wolf, who was driving, gasped. Keep in mind, Chang Ning had just run up the mountain from the foot; they hadn't even given these rookies a break.

The fact that Chang Ning can still unleash such speed at this moment shows that the physical exertion he experienced while climbing the mountain was not as great as the instructors had imagined.

"Our selection plan for the rookies is completely useless against Chang Ning. In terms of physical fitness, Chang Ning is far superior to these rookies. Even in our Wolf Fang, not many people dare to say they can beat him with certainty."

Gao Zhongduan stated confidently that he was also responsible for formulating the daily training plan for special forces in Langya, and therefore had a certain understanding of the physical fitness of his comrades in Langya.

"Should we let this kid advance to the second round of selection?"

Gray Wolf asked, thinking that since Chang Ning's physical abilities were already so excellent, this kind of selection training seemed to be of little use to him.

It's a complete waste of time; we might as well just go straight to the second round.

"No need. Have you forgotten that the purpose of our selection and training this time is to find talented soldiers to form the Lone Wolf B team?"

This kind of training helps soldiers cooperate as a team and reduces trouble when forming Group B later.

Now it depends on whether Dr. Tong can offer any useful advice. He's the expert in human research; we're just responsible for damaging the human body.

Inside the mobile medical vehicle, a young woman wearing a white coat, a blue medical mask, and short, ear-length hair was watching a screen displaying video footage transmitted in real time from a camera outside the vehicle.

The main character repeatedly shown in the video is Chang Ning.

"No, Chang Ning's physical fitness is indeed much stronger than that of an average person, but that doesn't mean she doesn't expend energy."

The staff member next to him asked, "What did Dr. Tong say?"

Tong Youyou replayed the video to a still image of Chang Ning when he had just reached the top of the mountain. At that time, Chang Ning's lips were dry and he was sweating profusely.

Then Tong Youyou stretched out her slender hand and tapped Enter with her white index finger, and the video started playing.

"Look here, Chang Ning's breathing is rapid and his steps are weak. All signs indicate that he has exhausted a great deal of energy."

But look here again.

Tong Youyou then used the mouse to drag the video to the moment when Chang Ning helped Xiao Zhuang up.

"Logically speaking, even if you wanted to help your comrades, you shouldn't still have the strength to run so fast after such a huge physical exertion."

At this point, Chang Ning, supporting Xiao Zhuang, took the lead and ran down the mountain, overtaking many people along the way.

Chang Ning's exceptional physical abilities stood out even more against the backdrop of everyone else.

Changning: It's all thanks to the contrast with its peers!
"Dr. Tong, according to what you're saying, doesn't that mean Chang Ning's physical fitness is stronger than others?" a staff member asked, puzzled.

After listening to the staff member's words, Tong Youyou did not show any bad behavior. Instead, she patiently explained: "You did not understand what I meant. Strong physical strength is one thing, and strong recovery ability is another."

I believe that the fact that he still had the energy to help his comrades and displayed such explosive power in such a short time indicates that his physical recovery speed is faster than that of ordinary people. Chang Ning definitely has some unknown secrets.

Even the most gifted people are only outstanding in one aspect of their physical abilities, such as Usain Bolt, Yao Ming, or their memory.

However, cases like Chang Ning's are rare. Tong Youyou discovered that the explosive power Chang Ning displayed while supporting Xiao Zhuang during their run was comparable to that of a provincial team athlete!
This is even with a load on him; wouldn't it be even faster without a load?

Moreover, Chang Ning's physical fitness and recovery ability are even more amazing. It's hard to say about other aspects, but I've heard that Chang Ning's shooting skills are also excellent.

Youyou think there are only a handful of all-rounders like this in the whole country, maybe only one in Changning.

It just so happens that she recently had a research project on the human body, and Chang Ning successfully caught Tong Youyou's attention.

Tong Youyou: Man, you've caught my attention!

'Damn it, what am I thinking!'

Tong Youyou's momentary lapse in concentration led her to involuntarily immerse herself in the plot of a female-oriented novel she had recently been following, causing her to feel instantly embarrassed.

Tong Youyou quietly stuck out her tongue and carefully and discreetly looked around. Seeing that the staff were all busy with their own things, she finally felt relieved.

'No one should have seen it.'
