The next day.

Li Mu Chuan woke up, washed up, had breakfast, and then followed Wei Yu Meng to a base.

Knowing the purpose of Li Mu Chuan's visit, someone immediately took him to the shooting range.

"Everything laid out before you, you can try. Whichever ones you like, you can take with you."

The instructor laid out a row of weapons, including rifles and sniper rifles.

Li Mu Chuan looked on with great desire, but he couldn't take any of these things with him.

This time when he went back, he absolutely had to upgrade his space so that he wouldn't encounter this situation again and could only take so little.

Li Mu Chuan felt a bit annoyed.

He pointed at a handgun, indicating that was what he wanted.

Seeing this, the instructor immediately began teaching Li Mu Chuan how to hold the gun and some key points for shooting.

What made Li Mu Chuan quite comfortable was that the instructor was extremely patient. Even when Li Mu Chuan didn't understand some parts after several attempts, the other person still patiently guided him.

Li Mu Chuan knew in his heart that if he were a soldier under this person, he would have been scolded long ago.

After a morning passed, Li Mu Chuan finally grasped some of the essentials of shooting. The next step was to use bullets to train for accuracy.

"Your physical fitness is decent, but your reaction speed is a bit lacking."

Before leaving, the instructor said with some emotion.

Li Mu Chuan couldn't help but sigh when he heard this. As he got older, his reaction speed had indeed decreased significantly.

Just now during the shooting training, Li Mu Chuan's reaction speed seemed half a beat slower.

However, this reaction ability could still be recovered a bit through training.

After Li Mu Chuan returned to the hotel, he asked Wei Yu Meng to help set up a shooting range in the hotel.

Otherwise, when Li Mu Chuan wanted to train, he would always have to go far away, which was too time-consuming.

Wei Yu Meng didn't refuse this request. As long as protective measures were in place, setting up a shooting range in the hotel was not a big deal.

Anyway, the area around the hotel had already been cleared.

He checked the time; there were still ten days left until the countdown ended.

During this period, Li Mu Chuan had to work hard to improve his shooting accuracy.

So, in the following time, the sound of gunshots constantly echoed from the hotel. From initially often missing the target, he progressed to hitting the target nine out of ten times.

After nine days passed, Li Mu Chuan was already able to consistently hit the target within ten meters.

The probability of hitting the bullseye was not high, but Li Mu Chuan could already avoid missing the target.

On a moving target, he also had a hit rate of over eighty percent.

For Li Mu Chuan, the training during this time was not in vain.

"This is the handgun you wanted, and the bullets."

Wei Yu Meng carried a box over to Li Mu Chuan.

Opening the box, he saw a brand new handgun and gleaming yellow bullets inside.

Seeing this, Li Mu Chuan reached out and loaded the handgun with bullets. He added one more to the chamber, wanting to have an extra bullet.

After putting the handgun into his Small Space, Li Mu Chuan began collecting the bullets in front of him. He packed fifty bullets, which, added to the sixteen bullets in the handgun, made a total of sixty-six bullets.

The quantity was a bit small, but there was nothing he could do; the space was only so big.

This was after Li Mu Chuan had thrown away everything he had brought before, except for the USB drive, to free up storage.

When he returned this time, he would have to work hard to upgrade his Small Space.

Wei Yu Meng watched as Li Mu Chuan's hand moved and things disappeared instantly. By now, she was used to it.

"You're leaving tomorrow?"

Wei Yu Meng looked at Li Mu Chuan and asked with some hesitation.

Li Mu Chuan nodded. He had already told the people above about his departure.

According to their wishes, they hoped to be able to collect some data when Li Mu Chuan left, such as video recordings and magnetic field fluctuations.

With current technology, there was no way to collect more data.

Li Mu Chuan had already agreed to this request.

If they did manage to collect any data, Li Mu Chuan could ask them for a copy.

"Then when do you think you'll come back to this world next time?"

She had been almost constantly by Li Mu Chuan's side these past few days. The time they spent together wasn't too short or too long, but they had developed a little bit of affection.

Now that Li Mu Chuan was suddenly leaving, Wei Yu Meng felt a little disappointed.

This question stumped Li Mu Chuan. To be honest, how could he know when he would be able to come back?

So far, Li Mu Chuan still didn't know the mechanism for choosing worlds when traveling through time.

If he knew, it would be much easier. At least in the future, when bringing things, he could selectively carry some items with him.

"I'm leaving soon. As a thank you for these past few days, what do you want to eat? I'll take you out to eat. It's on the public dime anyway."

Li Mu Chuan suddenly smiled. Whatever he wanted to eat, he could have Wei Yu Meng join him.

Anyway, she could get reimbursed later.

Wei Yu Meng tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Tuna, I heard Bluefin Tuna tastes really good."

With Li Mu Chuan's suggestion, she immediately perked up.

When it came to eating, she didn't want to miss out.

Bluefin Tuna? It seemed to be almost endangered, right?

Li Mu Chuan raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. He checked his phone and found that the fishing situation in this world was actually quite good; it wasn't endangered.

However, the price was incredibly expensive. It was nearly 100,000 per jin, and the better ones seemed to cost hundreds of thousands.

With Li Mu Chuan's own wealth, he could actually afford it.

The next day.

Li Mu Chuan stood in the center of a base.

Various instruments were spread around, all used to record the moment Li Mu Chuan crossed over.

Further ahead, some people were looking at the screen with excited expressions, seemingly anticipating something.

"Before you leave, Mr. Li, do you have any other requests?"

Jiao Yinrui looked at Li Mu Chuan and asked somewhat helplessly.

Li Mu Chuan had given them quite a lot during his visit, but he had asked for almost nothing in return.

This unequal exchange made them a little worried about whether the transaction could continue the next time Li Mu Chuan came.

If Li Mu Chuan had some demands, it would be better. For example, if Li Mu Chuan needed gold, he could arrange for several tons to be brought over for him.

Li Mu Chuan smiled upon hearing this and waved his hand at the other party, "Let's talk about it next time. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future, won't there?"

It was just that his space was too small. Otherwise, he would definitely ask the other party for a Close-In Weapon System, the kind dismantled from a warship. If he put that there, it would shatter anything.

Jiao Yinrui could only nod when he heard Li Mu Chuan say this.

And at this moment, points of starlight began to appear on Li Mu Chuan's body, indicating to everyone that Li Mu Chuan was about to leave this world.

The people beside him all widened their eyes at this moment, staring intently at the scene before them.

The next moment, the starlight that Li Mu Chuan had turned into dimmed and dispersed.
