When 'God' Decides To Start Over

Chapter 595 - 249 No One Participates in the Battle_3

"Captain Qian, is there an issue with your Demon Armor?" Dean Xu looked at Qian Zhongshan and asked.

Qian Zhongshan’s Demon Armor was also designed by Dean Xu. It fit him well in all aspects, so he thought when Li Xiu mentioned modifications, there must be an issue with his Demon Armor.

"No, there’s no problem with my Demon Armor. Everything is normal," Qian Zhongshan shook his head and said.

Seeing Dean Xu looking at him, Li Xiu said, "Qian Zhongshan is representing our technician team in the competition, and his current Demon Armor’s performance isn’t sufficient. It needs to be modified, with an increase in power and strength."

Dean Xu sighed and said, "Commander, it’s not that I don’t want to modify it, but even after modification, it might still be unusable."

Qian Zhongshan also said helplessly, "My Spiritual Sense is only at this level. If I could use more advanced Demon Armor, Dean Xu would not hesitate to provide it."

"Your level of Spiritual Sense is already enough, there’s no need to underestimate yourself." After finishing, Li Xiu looked at Dean Xu and said, "Dean Xu, just modify it according to my requirements. Change the core to sixteen-core; if conditions don’t allow, at least upgrade it to above eight-core. The material needs to use synthetic number thirteen type of composite material, and the Demon Light Weapons system also needs a revision, as well as the Light Pattern Power System..."

Li Xiu went over his modification requirements once, and Dean Xu frowned and said, "Sixteen-core isn’t a problem; even thirty-two-core is easy. But with such modifications, it might be better to build a new set, and according to what you’re describing, many configurations are redundant. For Captain Qian’s situation, this doesn’t seem favorable for combat..."

"It doesn’t matter, just build it as I said. If we build a new set, will it make it in time for the competition?" Li Xiu asked.

"If we allocate some personnel from here, it should not be a problem," Dean Xu pondered.

"We can delay my set of Demon Armor for now. Focus fully on building Qian Zhongshan’s Demon Armor. It’s best if it can be completed three to five days in advance; Qian Zhongshan needs the time to get familiar with the new Demon Armor before the competition," Li Xiu said.

"There’s no need to stop. The basic components can start being built without much manpower and effort. If everyone else goes all out on Captain Qian’s Demon Armor, it can probably be finished more than ten days in advance," Dean Xu calculated and said.

"Alright, let’s start building then." After making arrangements, Li Xiu left the institute with Qian Zhongshan.

"Is it reliable for Qian Zhongshan to represent the technician team in the competition?" Lei Qingfeng looked at Dean Xu and said.

Dean Xu shook his head and said, "The Commander probably has no other choices. With Sword Saint and those Magic Armor Masters, he might not be able to get them to work. Using Qian Zhongshan seems to be an act of necessity."

"Qian Zhongshan, although decently talented and particularly smart and capable, is just an ordinary S-Class Magic Armor Master. The upcoming competition is so terrifying; I’m afraid he’ll find it hard to win even a single match," Qiu Tianyu said.

"It’s just to make up the numbers; do you really expect him to win?" Lei Qingfeng sighed and said, "How many resources our technician team can bring back probably depends on Jing Li. It’s frustrating to think that even though we have Magic Armor Masters within the team, we still rely on a Trial Taker to grab resources."

"If you’re frustrated now, how will you feel when the resource distribution comes next year? Even if Jing Li wins everything this time, the resources brought back might not even be a third of what we have now. Moreover, Jing Li might not win either, and the worst-case scenario could leave us with not even a tenth of what we have now. That will be truly depressing," Qiu Tianyu said.

"Life will indeed be tougher afterward, but it’s still better than following that white fatty. Money can’t buy us freedom; I find joy in going through hard times with our Commander," Lei Qingfeng curled his lips and said.

Dean Xu laughed and said, "You guys don’t need to be too pessimistic; things might not be as bad as you think."

On the way back, Qian Zhongshan appeared heavily weighed down by his thoughts. Li Xiu specially asked Dean Xu to create Demon Armor for him. If he couldn’t win even a single match, wouldn’t that greatly disappoint Li Xiu?

But even if he wanted to win, how could he win? His opponents were likely all Super Spirit Testers, and as a regular S-Class Magic Armor Master, he had no ability to fight against those testers. Losing was easy, but winning seemed harder than climbing the sky.

Qian Zhongshan was not afraid to lose, but he was afraid of disappointing Li Xiu.

Until it was time to part ways with Li Xiu, Qian Zhongshan hadn’t said anything at all because he knew if he backed down, Li Xiu wouldn’t find another suitable candidate.

"What’s up? Nothing to say to me?" Li Xiu looked at Qian Zhongshan with a smile.

"Commander, rest assured, I will go all out. Even if there’s a sliver of possibility, I will desperately try to win," Qian Zhongshan said earnestly.

Li Xiu nodded, "Just going all out isn’t enough; you need some strategy as well. Come with me."

Li Xiu took Qian Zhongshan back to his own Compound Number Seven. If Qian Zhongshan had backed down, he would have let him go.

Since Qian Zhongshan hadn’t retreated, Li Xiu was determined to ensure he wins. How could the captain of the technician team participate in the competition only to act as cannon fodder?

There was a bit of excitement in Qian Zhongshan’s heart. He knew Li Xiu was going to teach him Magic Armor Master techniques, but he didn’t know what kind of techniques would be taught.

At the same time, there was some anxiety in Qian Zhongshan’s heart, unsure whether he’d be able to learn the techniques Li Xiu taught him, and whether mastering these techniques would truly allow him to stand against the Super Spirit Testers.

If Li Xiu taught the technique, and the new Demon Armor was used, but he still couldn’t secure even a single victory, it would surely disappoint the Commander terribly. Thinking this, the pressure inside Qian Zhongshan only grew heavier.
