"Mr. Jiang, I understand what you mean.
Rest assured, I never pick a fight.
But if provoked, I will teach them a lesson in how to behave."
"Yang Zi, I know your methods.
The reason I'm telling you this is that as long as the other party isn't too much, you shouldn't kill them.
Cultivating talent isn't easy."
"Understood, Mr. Jiang. It shouldn't be a problem.
After all, we're only here for a few days, not for a permanent stay."
"That's good. Xin Dali will hold your training session this afternoon.
I won't be here for too long, so try to communicate with Xin Dali as much as possible.
Also, I will arrange Ye Zi's test as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang. I'm already eager to start training.
I've never even held a firearm before."
"You'll get to enjoy yourself here. But firearms aren't easy to handle. After a day, your arm might swell."
"It's fine, I can endure such hardship."
"Alright then, you can all go to your rooms and rest for a while.
Inside, you'll find new training uniforms.
At two in the afternoon, someone will come to call you."
Jiang Qixin finished speaking and turned to enter another room, which seemed to be his lounge.
Guo Xuyang followed Ye Zi and Yu Er into their room.
The room wasn't large and contained two military beds. The bedding and sheets were new, and the training uniforms were neatly laid out.
Under the beds were small stools, washbasins, toothbrush cups, toothbrushes, towels, soap, and other necessities. Even women's personal items were fully prepared.
It seemed the staff had prepared everything while they were eating; it was very comprehensive.
At the far end was the bathroom, where washing, using the toilet, and showering could all be done.
Though small, it had everything. The entire building's design was very user-friendly.
And this was, after all, inside a cave.
To achieve such meticulous detail was truly astonishing.
After a brief tour, Guo Xuyang returned to his own room.
His room had the same layout as Yu Er's, but he was the only occupant.
He lay down on the bed and extended his senses to their fullest.
Instantly, he perceived the entire underground situation.
They were currently located on a mountainside. The entire training base spanned tens of millions of square meters.
The overall layout was tiered, divided into living quarters, training areas, and testing zones.
They were currently in the living quarters, about ten kilometers from the testing zone.
The firearm training center was not far from the living quarters, about two hundred meters away.
The training area was on a lower level, likely requiring an elevator to access.
There was also a highly concealed area, presumably the monitoring center, located at the very bottom of the entire structure.
Numerous display screens were densely arranged within, with two people recording something in front of the screens.
Guo Xuyang withdrew his senses and closed his eyes to sleep.
When he woke up, he found Xin Dali standing before him.
"Guo Xuyang, if this were a real mission, you would be dead by now," Xin Dali said, looking at him.
"Oh, my apologies. I've been too tired these past couple of days. Too much has been going on.
I felt safe here, so I slept soundly." Guo Xuyang said with a smile.
"You're telling the truth. This place is indeed the safest.
Missiles can't even penetrate it. Come on, it's time for training." Xin Dali glanced at his watch.
"Let's go." Guo Xuyang stood up and quickly changed into his training uniform.
"Given that your mission differs from ours, the focus of your training will also vary.
Your primary tasks over these ten days will be to learn how to use the escape pods, wear flight suits, and understand some emergency shelter protocols.
Mr. Jiang mentioned that you want to learn firearm shooting, so I will arrange for someone to specifically handle your shooting training."
"Thank you, Captain."
"No need to thank me. Call your friends, and we'll head over together." Xin Dali looked towards Yu Er and her friends' room.
"Yu Er, Ye Zi, are you ready? It's time for training." Guo Xuyang walked over and knocked on the door.
"Coming." Yu Er and Ye Zi were already dressed and opened the door.
As a system spirit, she had already prompted Ye Zi to start dressing when Guo Xuyang was woken up.
The group followed Xin Dali to the training ground below, a room of over a thousand square meters containing spacecraft, escape pods, and flight suits, with a large computer room next to it.
"Today, the personnel for our Star Scavenging Squad are mostly here. Let me introduce you. Our squad consists of twenty people.
Ten are security personnel, led by Xu Dahai, responsible for everyone's safety and security.
Six are crew members, led by Zhang Li, responsible for identifying and assessing the value and recoverability of salvaged items.
Four are specialists, led by Guo Xuyang, primarily responsible for salvaging items.
I will serve as our captain and also as security personnel, primarily responsible for everyone's safety.
I hope that during the upcoming training, everyone will concentrate and complete their training subjects.
Await further instructions from higher authorities, and we may depart at any time."
Xin Dali's speech was concise and effective, clearly outlining the situation.
"Our main task this afternoon is to familiarize ourselves with the use of escape pods.
This is our last line of defense, and we will only use it if absolutely necessary.
I hope we won't have to use it.
If we do end up using an escape pod, we can only pray to heaven for survival.
Now, I will call out the names so you can get acquainted with each other."
Xin Dali said this while opening the folder in his hand.
"Xu Dahai."
"Present."
"Report to your position."
"Yes."
Xu Dahai was the person in the mecha suit whom Guo Xuyang had kicked unconscious.
He was about 1.8 meters tall, with thick eyebrows and large eyes, a robust build, and his hands were covered in calluses.
He clearly looked like someone who handled firearms frequently.
"Zhang Shichao, Liu Haiquan, Wang Dongming, Li Wanxiang, Chen Xiaoming, Zhang Tongxun, Li Shouxia, Sun Qingqing."
These were all security personnel. Guo Xuyang was surprised to see two women among them.
He had seen both of them before; one was the woman in the mecha suit whom he had knocked unconscious, and the other was the woman who had posed as a hostage.
"Zhang Li."
"Present."
"Report to your position."
"Yes."
Zhang Li was in his early thirties, with a face that could belong to a boy band idol; people would believe he was a celebrity.
"Chen Shijie, Wu Guangxin, Liu Xinyu, Hao Xinxin, Zhang Liang."
These were all crew members, all men in their thirties.
"Guo Xuyang."
"Present." Guo Xuyang responded and stepped forward.
"Report to your position."
"Yes."
"Guo Xiaoyu, Ye Zi, Tong Xin."
Guo Xuyang hadn't expected that Tong Xin, who had participated in the initial test, was also an esper.
Moreover, she was very petite, standing at just over 1.6 meters, like a high school student, with a long ponytail and large eyes.
Guo Xuyang later learned that Tong Xin was not simple; she was the only woman who had returned from the operation where half of the personnel were lost.
She had personally witnessed monsters tearing the spaceship to shreds, and at that time, they had no power to resist.
At the last moment, she had hidden in an escape pod and successfully returned to safety on the ground.
