Chapter 1869: Chapter 1490: Bottleneck
Three days later, Su Mo was lying in bed looking at some materials when his bracelet suddenly vibrated and a virtual image prompt appeared.
"Received an image communication request from Bagley."
Su Mo glanced at it, slightly surprised. What was the need to talk so early, he wondered, and then connected the virtual image call.
Only to see images of Bagley and Xia Weiya pop up.
"Not up yet, huh!"
Bagley shouted in his loud voice.
"Yeah, just woke up."
Su Mo replied awkwardly.
"How about some training this afternoon? I can teach you a thing or two."
Bagley said energetically, full of confidence.
At this, Xia Weiya, standing to the side, couldn’t help but mock, "Come on, with your mediocre skills, stop bragging."
"Haha."
Bagley laughed at that.
Su Mo stretched lazily and said to Xia Weiya and Bagley, "You guys go first. I’ll head in after a few days of rest. Too much training isn’t good either."
"Alright, we’ll catch up with you later then."
Xia Weiya and Bagley didn’t overthink his response.
"Okay, I’ll hang up now."
Su Mo promptly ended the call.
The creator·Swallower said, "I thought you would agree, it’s quite unexpected."
"With training, the old man is my main focus. If I go to the Star Ring City training ground head-on, I’ll have to use machines there. I won’t be able to train with the old man then. Decisions must be made."
Su Mo was very rational, clearly knowing what was more important.
"Alright then, keep it up."
The creator·Swallower nodded in agreement.
"Let’s go, time to train!"
Su Mo, full of zest, got up and prepared to go to the old man.
.....
Soon after.
Inside the secret laboratory.
"I’m back."
Su Mo said in high spirits, greeting the old man.
"Cut the small talk, get ready quickly."
The old man said expressionlessly.
"No problem,"
Su Mo quickly went to change his clothes.
Once changed, he directly entered the biological container tank and made a ready gesture to the old man.
The old man then activated the equipment, and the training device emitted loud humming noises continuously.
He watched the timer stone-faced, occasionally glancing at Su Mo’s state.
Time ticked by.
Soon, the time displayed on the timer reached 55 minutes.
The old man was slightly surprised at this figure, remaining calm and waiting.
When the time reached 58 minutes, Su Mo’s condition showed intense fluctuations, his face began to show painful expressions.
The old man squinted his eyes.
When the timer hit 1 hour and 27 seconds.
Crack~
The training facility came to a halt.
Su Mo was ejected, gasping for air, and when feeling a bit better, he eagerly raised his head towards the old man, inquiring.
"How was it? How long did I last?"
"Very well done, better than I expected, you’ve improved quickly."
The old man gave a rare high evaluation.
Hearing this, Su Mo was also very pleased.
"That’s great."
"Keep working hard."
"Alright!"
.....
--------------------
Half a month later, early morning.
Su Mo got up very early, changing into a set of clothes and ready to head to the old man again.
The bracelet suddenly vibrated.
He glanced down, it was a communication request from Xia Weiya.
Su Mo was slightly surprised but connected the call immediately.
The images of Xia Weiya and Bagley simultaneously appeared, their relationship was indeed very close.
"Hey, Su Mo, you’ve been slacking off for over half a month now, it’s about time to get some practice!"
Xia Weiya teased a little.
"Haha, really? Has it been half a month already?"
"Come on, don’t play dumb, each time we call you, you say you need a few more days of rest. Wanna go train tomorrow afternoon?"
"Err, I have things to do tomorrow, you guys go ahead."
"You’re really not going?"
"Nope."
Su Mo responded with a smile.
"You’re hopeless, never mind, we’ll ask you again later."
Xia Weiya didn’t insist anymore.
"Haha, how’s your training going lately?"
Su Mo asked out of polite concern.
"I’m indeed improving, don’t underestimate me. Alright, let’s not chat, next time I’ll definitely make you look at me differently."
Xia Weiya confidently replied.
"Okay, okay."
Su Mo replied with a cheerful smile.
Xia Weiya then hung up the call. However, after hanging up, her smile gradually faded, replaced by a more thoughtful expression.
Beside her, Bagley couldn’t help but speak up.
"Xia Weiya, do you think Su Mo might be a bit discouraged? Maybe it was because my words the other day were too blunt and harsh?"
Xia Weiya frowned and said deeply.
"It’s possible, after all, Su Mo is so strong. But he faced so much hardship with the VI generation biological mecha training, he might not be able to accept it immediately."
"Honestly, I still can’t understand why Su Mo’s training results are so poor, it doesn’t make sense?"
"There’s nothing strange about it. VI generation biological mecha’s anti-pollution training is not only related to strength but also depends on the body’s endurance. Su Mo is strong and bursts powerfully, but I’ve heard the level of pollution to his body is severe, that might just be his flaw."
"If it’s a physical defect, there really isn’t a solution."
Bagley sighed deeply, feeling it was a great pity. Given Su Mo’s level, reaching the 30-minute passing line might require several times more effort than others, and he might not ever reach it in his lifetime.
"Alright, let’s stop discussing this, Su Mo seems carefree on the surface but is actually stable and diligent. He’s probably had enough annoyance from this."
