Chapter 205: 205, Outpost new recruit Ren Xiaosu

The synchronization coordination tests were being conducted throughout the Li Clan, not only by Ren Xiaosu and his companions, but even the Li Clan Consortium's own military units were participating.

Ren Xiaosu saw soldiers lining up outside the tent, entering one by one. Those who passed the synchronization screening would be congratulated by others.

These Li Clan forces must have known what they were doing, and seeing them congratulate their comrades, it must have been a stroke of luck.

"Leader, what exactly is this synchronization coordination screening for?" a student asked.

They had all been classmates before, and Ren Xiaosu's title as "leader" had been carried forward, sometimes even being called "teacher" by his classmates.

Ren Xiaosu didn't hide it; after thinking, he voiced his guess: "The Li Clan's nanobot and neural interface technology has made a breakthrough. It looks like they're screening candidates suitable for nanobot integration."

Indeed, after the technological breakthrough, the Li Clan immediately put nanobot technology into military use. If it were true, as Luo Lan said, that nanobots could help humans develop stronger bones, muscles, and other enhancements, then the Li Clan was likely forming an elite force with nanobot assistance.

However, Ren Xiaosu always felt that putting some machine into his own body was a bit uncomfortable.

The officer named Li Qingzheng smiled and watched Ren Xiaosu and the others: "Come with me, everyone. Let's register first. From now on, you'll be my soldiers. Follow me, and you'll eat well and drink spicy stuff!"

Ren Xiaosu glanced at him. Li Qingzheng's military cap was still askew, and the buttons on his collar were undone, looking like a real military ruffian...

No, this was a true military ruffian...

Ren Xiaosu walked over and shook hands with Li Qingzheng, slipping two banknotes into his hand: "Li Leader, I hope you'll take care of us in the future."

Li Qingzheng, seeing that Ren Xiaosu was so understanding, immediately beamed with joy: "Don't worry, brothers. I, Li Qingzheng, have just become an officer. I don't have any bureaucratic airs. We'll be brothers from now on!"

With two banknotes, the hierarchy turned into brotherhood. Ren Xiaosu curiously asked, "Where are we going next?"

"First, we'll register you, then get your uniforms, and we'll head to a post ahead. The entire post will be ours!" Li Qingzheng said proudly.

Ren Xiaosu was a bit puzzled. Li Qingzheng was only a squad leader of a private military unit, yet he could command an entire post?

"Are we not operating around the Wall?" Ren Xiaosu asked.

"After all, there are factories outside. We need to defend them from being ambushed," Li Qingzheng explained: "Don't worry. I, Li Qingzheng, have been practicing martial arts with the blacksmith in the settlement since childhood. Now I'm proficient in many fighting styles..."

Ren Xiaosu felt a bit uneasy. If you're recruiting soldiers, recruit them properly. But he was being recruited into a ragtag army.

Li Qingzheng looked at Ren Xiaosu and said, "Though you look a bit frail and your synchronization rate is low, making you seem unfit for military service, don't worry. Your Li Ge will protect you!"

"Mmm, thank you, Li Ge..." Ren Xiaosu replied. After his agility had improved, he did look a bit frail.

The other students exchanged glances, not knowing what to say. They were all worried that Ren Xiaosu might punch Li Qingzheng's brain out.

At this time, there were still seven refugees who needed to serve in the military. These people looked as if they had lost their mothers, thinking that refugees were the most despicable people in the world. They believed refugees were born to serve the Wall people, never imagining they would one day become refugees themselves.

Ren Xiaosu had already paid his money, making him Li Qingzheng's brother. But these refugees had no money to pay, and Li Qingzheng looked at them as if he had changed his expression: "You guys hurry up and follow. What's the point of crying like that? When you get to the post, you'll be fine."

Originally, Li Qingzheng had about ten soldiers under him, and now he had finally filled out the 30-person combat squad to make it complete.

Ren Xiaosu learned from Li Qingzheng that they belonged to the private military unit Iron Second Battalion, Eighth Combat Squad.

At this moment, perhaps Li Qingzheng still didn't know what kind of candidates had slipped into his squad...

A group went to register. When it came time to get their uniforms, the logistics soldiers informed them that there weren't enough uniforms and they would have to wait for the next batch.

Ren Xiaosu wondered how many they had expanded. They couldn't even get military uniforms. Were they supposed to guard the post in their own clothes?

This was too sloppy!

It seemed that although the Wall had expanded the private military units, it didn't take them seriously at all. When they went to get their weapons, they didn't even get guns.

On the way, he suddenly saw Yan Liuyuan outside the military camp. Neither of them spoke. Yan Liuyuan threw a note over the wooden fence of the camp. Ren Xiaosu opened it and read: "Already settled in the settlement, nothing to worry about."

Only then did Ren Xiaosu feel relieved. At that moment, Li Qingzheng was shouting loudly on a nearby truck: "Brothers, get on! We're heading to the post!"

Ren Xiaosu nodded to Yan Liuyuan and walked toward the truck. He didn't know what kind of post he was going to, but once he figured out the situation here, he would leave with Yan Liuyuan and the others.

At this very moment, a bottle of silver liquid-like nanobots was being brought into the Wall. A researcher in a white lab coat stood at the Wall's gate for an ID check. The guards, seeing his special ID, immediately let him through and prepared a special vehicle to take him to the 613 Research Institute inside the Wall.

While sitting in the car, the researcher was still thinking. The nanobot technology was already very mature. Breaking a few was acceptable, but breaking an entire bottle was strange. After all, the nanobots in this bottle were in astronomical numbers. They couldn't all be broken, could they?

Nanobots weren't actually smaller than nanometers. They just needed to ensure their operational tentacles were at the nanometer level. Their actual size was about 4 nanometers.

What was 1 nanometer? 1 nanometer equaled 0.000001 millimeters. If the entire bottle of nanobots were broken, it must not be due to technical issues. There had to be some other reason.

This left him very confused and puzzled.

Upon arriving at the 613 Research Institute, he walked into the experimental building and said to the secretary's office: "I want to see Mr. Li!"

The secretary, a beautiful woman, adjusted her glasses: "Just tell me what you need. Mr. Li is very busy."

"We had a small accident here," the researcher said: "Please inform Mr. Li as soon as possible."

"Leave it to me. Leave your contact information, and I'll notify you when there's a result. Today, there have been incidents of nanobots being destroyed due to operational errors in all the Walls. Mr. Li is busy," the secretary said casually.

The researcher was stunned. Destroyed due to operational errors? But he clearly remembered that his operation had not been erroneous at all!

He said seriously, "I'll go back and wait for your message, but please make sure to tell Mr. Li that there was no operational error when this bottle of nanobots had problems. The situation is very suspicious!"

The secretary looked at him and, under his gaze, put an urgent label on the bottle of nanobots. The researcher finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you!"

But he didn't know that the samples being sent into the lab had already had over a hundred bottles labeled as urgent.
