"Do you want to go to the logistics department together?" Xia Cheng walked over and asked softly.
Lu Sheng looked at her. He saw Shajay talking to another lady with a purple ponytail softly from the corner of his eye.
"No, I won't be modifying for now. We'll talk about it later," he said calmly.
The modification he wanted was different from the others. Hence, he had to avoid other people's attention.
"Alright. Do you have time to go boating together? There are some hand-rowed boats in the lake near Dulan Mountain. It's fun. "Xia Cheng invited him generously." Four or five of us will go together. "
Lu Sheng knew that Xia Cheng was helping him. Jorin was too unsociable. However, in the Alan Federation, even if he came from the best academy, he would be at a disadvantage in the future if he did not have enough connections. He would not be taken care of when he entered the Army or went to the frontline.
Xia Cheng had been actively building up her own small circle of contacts. Now that she had taken the initiative to invite him, she also wanted to pull him into her circle and help him.
However, although Xia Cheng meant well, Lu Sheng was destined to let her down.
After his Arrival, Jorin's future was destined to be different from the others.
"It's a pity … I've been busy lately. I have a lot of things to do. You guys go have fun. Pay attention to the weather. Don't let the rain affect your mood," Lu Sheng rejected politely.
Xia Cheng raised her eyebrows. "Alright then. Work is more important. However, you can still change your mind before next Thursday. Remember to tell me."
"Alright." Lu Sheng watched as Xia Cheng turned and left. Not far away, Xia Cheng's best friends heard their conversation. They were unhappy with Lu Sheng.
Clearly, they were annoyed that he did not know what was good for him.
After all, not everyone wanted a mediocre guy who did not know what was good for him in their circle. Such a person was useless in a team other than destroying the atmosphere.
Xia Cheng's invitation to Lu Sheng also risked affecting the students of other circles.
She explained to her friends and smiled apologetically. Soon, she won everyone's understanding.
Lu Sheng's expression did not change. He made a mental note of Xia Cheng's goodwill. She had always been nice to Jorin. This was not the first time.
"If there's a chance, I can secretly take care of this girl."
He quickly put on his armor again and tried to move his body. Just like the other students around him, he tested the specific parameters of the armor.
"There's no increase in strength and explosive power, but there's a buffer system that can reduce energy consumption and increase endurance. As for the rest … it's no different from the armor used by students. "Lu Sheng quickly calculated the specific values.
Donning his armor, he returned to his dormitory. After waiting for a while to avoid the other students who were busy with their modifications, he slowly made his way to the logistics department.
The logistics department was at the very back of the academy, next to three mushroom-shaped silver-white warehouse buildings.
When Lu Sheng arrived, there were still many students who had just come out of the main gate. His presence in the class was extremely weak, and he didn't have many interpersonal relationships. Other than in class, he was rarely seen, which led to 90% of the students in the class not knowing him.
Walking against the flow of people and into the logistics department, he was greeted by a wide and clean white hall. The light golden chandelier was bright and luxurious, making this place look more like a luxurious hotel than a logistics department that stored equipment.
Lu Sheng found the staff at the information counter and asked. He immediately turned right, walked into the elevator, and pressed the button to go down to the fifth floor.
As the elevator was descending, a sweet electronic voice rang out.
"Welcome to the logistics department's armor modification department. The modification department is divided into three main areas. The modification area, the testing area, and the resting area. Here, you can find more than 90% of the latest armor technology on the market. It's the most comprehensive armor components in the entire Federation, and the price is only 80% of the market price.
"For safety reasons, the modification process here is completely confidential. Guided by personnel and automated equipment, the modification can meet the requirements of most General Armors."
The female voice kept introducing the functions and advantages of the place. At the same time, she also announced the only restriction.
No parts are allowed to be brought out. All modifications must be done on one's own armor. It was impossible to come back after buying the components.
If one could not install it for the time being, he could only give up. There was no such thing as selling it to him first and waiting for the opportunity to install it later.
Lu Sheng could understand this.
"Ding …" The elevator door opened.
A few male and female students walked into the elevator together. Lu Sheng looked at the floor. The fourth floor was the combat simulation area.
"I just checked the record board … Quan Shihui is still at the top. I'm afraid she'll still be in first place this year," a male student with a fourth-year badge said gloomily with his head lowered.
"President Kyla still can't catch up?" another female student said in disappointment.
"No, the difference is too great. Quan Shihui has passed the nineteenth stage, but the president is only at the thirteenth. They're not on the same level at all." The man wiped his face with both hands, feeling vexed.
"She's so powerful …" The female student was equally helpless. "Perhaps only the elite seniors who have graduated can suppress her. That woman is too powerful."
"Perhaps." The man shook his head slightly. Perhaps because Lu Sheng was in the elevator, he wanted to say something but stopped himself. In the end, he said nothing and only remained silent.
Lu Sheng's face was expressionless, but he remembered Quan Shihui's name in his heart. Iron Tower had asked him the same question before.
Soon, he arrived at basement five. The elevator door opened, and he saw a silver-white corridor extending forward. Every few steps, there would be two rooms on either side of the corridor that faced each other.
Lu Sheng walked out of the elevator. He could vaguely hear loud noises coming from some of the rooms.
He took a few steps forward and turned his head to look at the floor plan on the wall.
Soon, he found the free rooms for students. There were a total of fifteen rooms.
Lu Sheng walked along the corridor and soon found the free rooms for new students located in the deepest part of the building.
The fifteen rooms were divided into two rows from one to fifteen. It felt like they were facing each other.
Lu Sheng walked past the doors of the rooms slowly. He could see if there was anyone inside from the doors.
If there was no one, a green six-pointed star would light up in the middle of the door. If there was someone, it would be a red ring.
Soon, he found an empty room at the back. He pushed the door open and entered.
"Come and register your student card. Register the start time of the modifications." The room was filled with random metal items.
A middle-aged man with a brandy nose wearing a black uniform with white edges held a notebook in his hand.
Lu Sheng quickly registered.
"Take off your armor and follow me to the back. I'll show you the first modification. After that, you can do it yourself. Ask me if you have any questions, "the middle-aged man said.
"Okay."
Lu Sheng took off his armor without batting an eyelid. He followed the man to the back of the room. It was a spacious empty space. There were many black wires that looked like electric cables hanging on the ground. There were more than ten searchlights installed on the surrounding walls.
"As students who will enter the battlefield after graduation, everyone has a special modification that doesn't cost more than a thousand tibs. You have to think of your own modification plan. Don't be sloppy, "the middle-aged man said. He then handed a notebook to Lu Sheng. "This is the list of components here. The modification technique is also on it. If you exceed it, you'll have to pay extra. "
Lu Sheng nodded. He took the notebook and glanced at it. At the top was the 1,000 tibs free modification fee for students.
For big families, this amount of money was nothing. However, for students with ordinary backgrounds, this 1,000 tibs was equivalent to 100,000 yuan on Earth. It was a considerable amount.
He glanced through a bunch of system modification techniques. These techniques involved the coordination and modification of the power system, the armor system, the long-range system, and so on. None of them met Lu Sheng's requirements. He glanced through them and looked at the list of components and materials at the end.
He could not afford the expensive high-grade components and materials. They would easily cost tens of thousands of tibs. Moreover, they were basic models at most. They could not unleash the strong advantage of his Harmonizing Power. Lu Sheng had already thought of his route from the beginning.
He scurried to the very bottom and found the armor components. Then, he found the cheapest bulletproof alloy external armor.
"Stacked alloy bulletproof external armor. Absorbs a total of 1,000 to 1,500 Tara.
It can effectively block small-caliber bullets at close range. It can resist piercing attacks from sharp weapons. Its weakness is that it has weak protection against heavy armor-piercing bullets, cannonballs, and explosions.
Price: 100 tibs. "
"Please add a layer of bulletproof external armor to my armor," Lu Sheng said simply.
"Sure, no problem. One layer of external armor costs 100 tibs. What else do you need?" the middle-aged man in charge of modification asked casually.
He walked to the control room at the side. Soon, two mechanical arms grabbed Lu Sheng's armor and fixed it in the middle of the empty space. Sparks flashed, and pieces of black armor plates as thick as palms were pressed on the armor.
The modification took less than ten minutes.
Lu Sheng looked at the modified armor. It was not bad. The originally flashy white armor had now become a lot heavier. Although it still looked no different from an ordinary soldier, the thick armor plate still gave people a sense of security.
"Please add another layer of bulletproof external armor."
"More? Alright, that's fine. " Some students with strong bodies would also have such requests. Two layers of bulletproof external armor could provide good protection. Although it would slow down one's movement speed, it would increase one's overall defense.
The middle-aged man in charge of modification lit a cigarette and began the second layer of modification with ease.
The second layer of external armor was added as well. The armor had become thicker, and it looked a lot bigger than the original armor.
"Please add another layer of bulletproof external armor."
Lu Sheng made a third request.
This time, the middle-aged man in charge of modification was slightly dumbfounded. He looked at Lu Sheng carefully.
"It's still within my free range, isn't it?" Lu Sheng said with a natural expression.
"That's true." He had seen people who were afraid of death, but he had never seen someone who was so afraid of death.
Even the strongest student would have to use all his strength to carry three layers of ordinary alloy plate armor. With Harmonizing Power to reduce the weight, he would have to use all his strength to carry the weight.
If a fight broke out, he would not even be able to run, let alone hide. He could only move slowly step by step.
The middle-aged man thought that this kid would cry during the examination. Since it was the other party's request, he did not say anything else. With a cigarette in his mouth, he controlled the mechanical arms and began to quickly add the armor.
Amid the hissing sounds of sparks, another layer of external armor was attached to the armor. Lu Sheng's armor was now half a meter thick, and it looked unusually bloated. It was more than twice the size of an ordinary student's armor.
