Ye Chong looked up at the city before him, feeling a sense of familiarity. This place was so much like the modern cities of the Five Galaxies. Tall skyscrapers, mechs of all types flying in the sky, it was a completely different world from the rest of He Yue galaxy. Walking into the city, the feeling intensified. Holographic advertisements could be seen everywhere. Countless mechs flew between the metallic skyscrapers. Even the hurried pedestrians on the streets were very similar to the cities of the Five Galaxies.
"This is Gray Valley?" Shang asked curiously.
Ye Chong shrugged, "I find it strange too."
Ye Chong was wearing a combat suit, and did not stand out among the crowd. On the way to the city, Shang had been discussing with him about psychology. Of course, the end result was predictable. Ye Chong was defeated. Suddenly, Ye Chong realized how weak he was in this area. He was now highly skilled in combat, mech piloting, alchemy, and even mech construction and maintenance. However, he was a complete blank when it came to psychology and sociology.
Shang used many theories to prove the importance of psychology in combat. Of course, Ye Chong was convinced. Convincing Ye Chong was a simple but difficult task. As long as your theory was reasonable, Ye Chong would naturally agree. However, if your proposal was not convincing, then no matter how close you were to him, it would be impossible to convince him.
Walking on the street, Ye Chong looked like an inconspicuous commoner. No one paid him a second glance. The holographic screen in the open-air plaza was broadcasting the news. Other than the constant mention of war, there were no signs of war here.
"Ye, this place looks good," Shang was excited.
Ye Chong looked around, and replied casually, "The situation is not clear yet, I need more information."
Ye Chong walked casually on the streets, seemingly aimlessly, but he was actually memorizing the paths.
However, they soon faced an important problem - they did not have money! Earning money had always been Ye Chong's problem, and also his weakness. Fortunately, Shang was here, so he was not worried. Back in the Five Galaxies, Mu seemed to have an endless amount of money at his disposal, and left a deep impression on Ye Chong. Shang must be doing the same!
"Yes, if we can hack into the virtual world, money is indeed not a problem." "But, Ye, regrettably, we do not have the ability to do so at the moment. I've already tried to hack into their virtual world, but I failed. "
"Failed? Why? "Ye Chong's voice was tinged with surprise. Although Shang's calculation ability was slightly inferior to Mu's, it was still very strong. From his past experience, Shang had always been successful. Why did he fail this time?
There was a hint of surprise in Shang's voice. "The virtual world here is a bit strange. Its algorithm is completely different from what we know. This also made it impossible for me to attack. What a strange place. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that when I entered the virtual world, I triggered their alarm. We need to get out of here quickly. "
Ye Chong sweated. This bastard … Just as he was about to run away from the area, Shang's hateful voice rang out, "Ye, don't let you act strange. You should now use your usual speed and expression to leave this place easily. That way, you won't attract attention. Do you want everyone to guess what you've done when they see you? "
Ye Chong's foot was about to exert force, but he stopped abruptly. Even though he was very good at controlling his strength, it still made him feel uneasy.
Ye Chong stretched out his right foot, and returned to his normal walking posture. His expression did not change. Of course, it was not because he was good at hiding it, but because his face had always been expressionless.
"The more normal you act, the easier it is for people to ignore you. Although you do exist at this moment, you are equivalent to being in a blind spot that others can't see, "Shang said with fervor and assurance.
At this moment, a group of people in yellow uniforms walked towards them.
"That's strange, there was an alarm just now. Wasn't it supposed to be here? Why do I feel that there's no one suspicious? "One of them said.
His companion shrugged. "I didn't see anyone suspicious either. Maybe that person had left long ago. "
"How could it be so fast?" Another person was doubtful. "When the alarm went off, we were here, and we didn't see anyone suspicious. If you ask me, it's probably a false alarm. "
"Yes yes yes, I think so too. It's not like this hasn't happened before …"
The group of people walked past Ye Chong. One of them took a glance at Ye Chong, and looked away.
Shang's theory worked! If it were before, he would have attracted the attention of these people when he sprinted, and a fight would have been inevitable.
Shang seemed to know what Ye Chong was thinking, and said proudly, "Hehe, Ye, I told you. In this world, there's nothing more effective and profound than psychology. "
Ye Chong did not think much of Shang's words, but he was beginning to pay more attention to psychology.
"Ye, your disguise just now still needs to be improved. For example, the force behind your feet, the back is heavier than the front. Also your heartbeat, breathing rate and so on. If there were spies among those people just now, you would have been seen through. A successful disguise involves many aspects, and the core of it is psychology. "Shang always had a penchant for insulting Ye Chong.
"Yes." Ye Chong replied plainly, and began to make adjustments. Soon, he was back to almost the same state as before.
"Hehe, not bad, not bad. Ye, you're very perceptive, as expected. However, the current you is someone who can easily tell that you are a person with decent strength. "
Ye Chong tilted his head and asked, "Why?"
"Your steps and breathing rate are very precise. You should know that a normal person's steps and breathing rate are only maintained within a certain range. Actually, Ye, you have the natural ability to disguise. Your body is not well-built, and it's easy to give people the impression that you're weak. Your hands don't show any signs of training either. While they're not as slender as the beautiful women's, they're still fair. You should know that these are the hardest parts to disguise. "
Shang was very excited now. It was a blessing to have found such an interesting game. In the past, when Mu would come up with all kinds of training plans for Ye Chong, he could only watch from the side as Ye completed the training meticulously. Now he knew that it was a wonderful feeling! He even suspected that Mu had the same hobby, and that was why he came up with so many training plans.
Hmm, it looked like he had to start enriching his training plans. Once he thought of the numerous training plans Mu had prepared for Ye Chong, Shang decided to come up with an even bigger plan.
And so, Ye Chong's suffering began.
Posture, breathing, steps, eyes, even the muscles under the clothes, Ye Chong had never seen a training more difficult than the one he was currently training. Repeating the same battle maneuver a hundred times was easy for him. However, what if he could not focus his eyes for 10 minutes? Ye Chong felt like a small drum was beating in his heart. At the beginning, even five seconds felt like an eternity to him, let alone 10 minutes.
Five seconds of inattention was enough for him to die a few times over! Every time, the thought would come to him.
On the contrary, the more difficult training later on could be easily completed by Ye Chong. For example, he had to hold back all the sharpness in his eyes, but secretly, he had to be alert.
Ye Chong felt like vomiting blood. He had never thought that disguising as a normal person would be so difficult. His reflexes were extremely sensitive, and this sensitivity was the biggest problem with disguising. For example, if he suddenly heard light footsteps behind him, he would instinctively be on guard. This combat instinct was ingrained into his bones, almost becoming second nature to him.
After all the training, his stamina was far more exhausted than he had imagined. More importantly, he was mentally exhausted. This training was unlike anything he had ever done before.
Along the way, Ye Chong continued to train in various ways. In Shang's words, the training did not require much movement, so he could do it even while walking. Ye Chong could imagine the benefits of disguising as a normal person even without Shang's explanation. That was why he was training so hard. Ye Chong had an advantage. Once he thought that a skill would be useful to him, he would try his best to learn it.
However, so far, he had not found any talent in this area.
Ye Chong stopped abruptly, and looked up at the huge holographic screen in the square.
"Urgently hiring close combat mech pilot instructor - Research Consortium." It was a simple line of words, without any fancy lighting or sound effects. Below it was a smaller line of words, which was an address. The advertisement stayed on the screen for a full five minutes.
"Hmm, that's a good way to earn money," Shang's voice rang in Ye Chong's mind.
"I think so too," Ye Chong nodded in agreement. They were now penniless, and this was a problem they could not escape from. Now that Shang could not access the virtual world, they could only rely on themselves. Ye Chong's original plan was to find a mech repair shop or assembly shop to earn some money.
However, a close combat mech pilot instructor was not a bad idea.
