At first glance, it didn't sound very useful. It wasn't bulletproof, nor did it have any camouflage functions.
Apart from being easy to wear and fitting perfectly, the only function it had was to isolate electricity and poison.
But if one thought about it carefully, this function was actually quite important.
"Stop gasping for breath. Just tell us … if we wear it, can we touch high-voltage electricity with our hands and soak our feet in sulfuric acid?" Mo Qiong asked.
Waveshift smiled. "That's right. It can't be penetrated if the voltage doesn't exceed 1000kV. Apart from being immune to radiation and temperature, it can also come in contact with all highly corrosive substances."
Everyone understood. From the looks of it, this suit was quite awesome.
Highly toxic substances could be touched, high-voltage wires could be touched, and highly corrosive liquids could be soaked in. It could be used in so many situations. Coupled with its portability, it was indeed necessary for everyone to wear it.
To achieve the same effect, one might need to wear thick gloves. Or perhaps a full set of protective clothing. But with this, there was no need. It was light and thin, and its weight was only a hundred grams or so of the badge.
While it could also come in contact with highly toxic substances, how could it be as convenient as this?
Waveshift said, "Take note. Although it can prevent electricity from entering the body through the skin, electricity will release a huge amount of heat. It can isolate electricity but not heat. You won't be electrocuted, but you might be scalded.
Also, it might not be able to resist abnormal poisons and corrosive substances. So, don't touch anything. It's only guarding against normal situations. "
Everyone nodded. They weren't stupid. They knew that they had to be careful in front of anomalies.
At this moment, Mo Qiong was thinking about how this suit, or rather, this' membrane ', would affect him.
"How tight is it exactly? Are there any loopholes in the degree of protection? "Mo Qiong asked.
"How should I describe it … it's an extremely thin layer that perfectly covers every nanometer of your body. It's tightly attached to your skin, including your mouth and nose. Of course, you can still breathe. So, although it can isolate air, it can't prevent you from directly inhaling poisonous substances into your body. For example, if you take a breath in a poisonous substance or drink a mouthful of sulfuric acid, it won't be able to do anything. So, when you encounter poisonous substances, you'll have to cooperate with other combat suits. In any case, this protective membrane is only equivalent to a set of skin. "Waveshift explained.
Someone asked, "Does that mean even the pores are blocked? His body is completely airtight? "
"You don't have to worry about your body not being able to breathe properly. It's fine as long as you can release your heat. Even if you can't excrete your sweat, it doesn't matter. The membrane is dead, but humans are alive. This thing can be retracted and released at will, and can be undone at any time. You just need to adjust it according to the situation. Even if there's some invisible poison on it, it'll be absorbed into the badge, "Waveshift said.
Mo Qiong thought to himself that this was indeed the case. When this item was equipped, his skin would be in a sealed state. He definitely couldn't do it for a long time, but if he could take the initiative to undo it, it wouldn't be a problem at all.
If he really couldn't remove it after a long period of time, it could only mean that something even more dangerous would come into contact with it. Since that was the case, it wasn't a big deal that his skin didn't breathe.
This didn't affect him much. It was just that he couldn't do things like hormonal impact. Compared to its benefits, its drawbacks were acceptable.
"Everyone needs to bring two or three sets. Its effective period is very short, especially when it's used at a high intensity. It will shorten its lifespan, so it must be replaced frequently."
"I change it every half a month. If I'm on a mission, I'll get a new one. In this aspect, you don't have to save money for the society! "Waveshift said seriously.
Everyone also said seriously, "Yes!"
"Alright, go change your equipment and gather at the airport. When the time comes, the leader of the drill team will come to pick you."
…
Mo Qiong put on the badge and coated it with a membrane. After that, he casually put on a set of the society's standard black explosion-proof combat uniform and went to the airport.
He didn't need to bring a huge pile of equipment everywhere. The society had strongholds all over the world, and equipment could be produced anywhere.
Therefore, Mo Qiong could resupply wherever he went, and he could also get equipment.
He picked out the world's most powerful sniper rifle for himself.
That sniper rifle was called "Black Emperor." Its effective range was four thousand meters, and its killing range was twelve thousand meters. It could be said to be terrifying.
But this toy wasn't usually used. He couldn't just run around with that oversized gun, right?
The Blue White Society's General Department would take care of everything. He just needed to make a request, and he could get weapons and supplies from anywhere. Even places without strongholds would get airdropped as soon as possible.
"Hello, you're Mo Qiong, right? I'm from the Tesla team … "
"Sorry, I've already decided to join a team," Mo Qiong said.
He had just arrived, and someone immediately came up to him to talk about joining a team.
At that moment, the entire airport's departure hall was like a recruitment hall.
But it was also different. The students of teams five and six were either sitting or standing in the departure hall. Strangers took turns to walk in and look at them, and then talk to them, hoping that they would join the other team.
They didn't ask much. When they saw the faces, they immediately went up and chose the person they wanted.
Obviously, before they came here, they had already gotten the relevant information and had already confirmed a number of targets.
Among them, the main target of many teams was Mo Qiong.
Once he entered, he bypassed everyone and walked to Mo Qiong to introduce his team.
Without a doubt, he and You Xin were the two strongest in Group 5 and Group 6 without any doubts. Among them, Mo Qiong was even stronger.
In the end, once Mo Qiong arrived, others went straight to him.
However, Mo Qiong, who had already promised Alexander, immediately rejected them when he heard that they weren't from Darwin's team.
Thus, Mo Qiong rejected eight teams in a row.
Most people wouldn't choose a team. Those who were chosen basically had nothing to say and just followed their team leader.
Because if they were rejected by the team that wanted them, and the other teams didn't want them. In the end, those who weren't wanted could only form a new team with inexperienced freshmen.
That meant that Mo Qiong didn't have to worry about being left behind, because he was already surrounded by the other team leaders.
What Tesla's team, Maxwell's team, Galileo's team …
Each team was rejected by him one after another, and the Darwin team that was really waiting was blocked outside and couldn't even get a word in.
"I'm Chris, the team leader of Darwin's team! Mo Qiong … Mo Qiong, I'm here! "Their team leader was a black man. His muscles were as smooth as steel.
"You're finally here." Mo Qiong thought that if he hadn't appeared, he would have agreed to another team.
"Sorry, sorry, I want to choose four people this time. Other than you and You Xin, there are two others that I haven't discussed in advance, so I went to talk to them first." Chris smiled.
His words caused the other team leaders to glare at him angrily, but it couldn't be helped. The fact that they were persuaded in advance meant that Darwin's team was familiar with Mo Qiong's team.
Seeing that Darwin's team leader had arrived, they could only regretfully leave.
"Who are the other two?" Mo Qiong asked.
Chris replied: "The other two aren't that bad. The students who stayed until now aren't bad, but there has to be a woman. That's why I went to talk to her just now, the one who's in the same group as you."
"Yan Wei?"
"Yes, that's the name."
Mo Qiong was confused. "Why does it have to be a woman?"
"Because there's no woman in our team!" Chris answered matter-of-factly.
"Ah?" Mo Qiong was stunned. At first, it sounded like a misunderstanding. What did he mean by no woman, so the new team member had to bring in a woman?
But then, he quickly realized that it wasn't because of anything else. It was simply because there were no women in the team during the exercise, which was equivalent to having one of their major shortcomings.
Sometimes, the characteristics of anomalies were determined by their gender.
It was best for a team to not have any major shortcomings. If there was an operation that had to be done by a woman, and the entire team was made up of men … wouldn't that mean they had to apply to the higher-ups to turn a man into a woman and continue with the mission?
That's right, there was such a situation, and such anomalies did exist. Furthermore, they were relatively controllable, but that was too inconvenient.
"Have you ever run into a problem that had to be solved by a woman?" Mo Qiong asked.
"Of course … the reason Alexander agreed to persuade the two of you to join the team was because I promised him that if I could convince the two of you, I would definitely invite a woman to join the team. I can't go back on my word … "Chris replied.
"Hm?" Mo Qiong thought for a bit. "What do you mean by that?"
Chris smiled and replied: "It's nothing. During his second mission, we ran into an anomaly that required a woman to approach. In order to deal with that anomaly from its source, we voted unanimously …"
"… Alright, I understand, you don't need to say anything else" Mo Qiong was speechless.
