Jessica is just like a child showing off their toys.
At first, I didn't mind letting my friends play with it a few times, and enjoying their shocked and envious expressions.
But when her friend showed signs of wanting to share it for a longer period, she became unhappy.
Lu Li smiled and pinched her little cheek, not knowing what to say.
She was, after all, just a young girl in her early teens, not quite mature yet.
At that moment, Teresa put down her schoolbag and came into the yard, calling out from afar, "It's time for training!"
"I'm here!" Jessica ran out quickly.
The two girls, dressed in their everyday clothes, practiced crawling around the yard under Aurora's supervision.
First, it would suddenly lie down, crawling on the ground for dozens of meters, then immediately get up and run... repeating this process.
This posture allows for quick evasion and escape in the event of gunfire or explosions.
Since it was a matter of life and death, Teresa trained very seriously, crawling meticulously on the dirty ground.
"Use your feet and hands simultaneously!" "Lower your body!"
Aurora, with a stern face, repeatedly shouted, pointing out the mistakes and striving to make the girl's movements more agile and standard.
Faced with the threat of drug lords, no one dared to slack off!
In the last election, 90 politicians with known names died, and countless family members were implicated.
The two girls were rolling around in the mud, having a great time. Lu Li stood next to Aurora and casually asked:
"Do you have any information about Benjamin?"
"You wiped out the SWAT team, which is certainly impressive, but dealing with Benjamin is no small matter..."
Aurora said seriously:
"This is a warlord with a standing army of 130,000, whose subordinates include professional soldiers and elite agents from all over the world! Despite possessing such immense power, this man is extremely cautious, changing his residence every day..."
Aurora corrected Teresa's posture and continued:
"Nobody knows where he is, so... the best solution is for the woman to successfully run for president and use the power of the state to eliminate him."
Lu Li was skeptical of the so-called power of the state, "Didn't that previous president get ousted by drug lords while he was fighting drugs?"
Aurora shook her head and said, "Ms. Maria is different..."
"Even if we deal with Benjamin, I remember there are still four Drug cartel like this, right?"
"Uh..." Aurora was speechless for a moment, and then she thought: These Drug cartel are all backed by the Star Alliance Country.
Even a strongman like Ms. Maria, can she definitely eradicate drugs?
Just then, Lu Li's phone rang.
He took out his phone and walked towards the garage, saying, "Gather intelligence on drug lords with all your might; it might come in handy later."
"You... okay, I will."
Aurora wanted to say something like, "This kid doesn't know his place."
But as she watched the boy's retreating figure, both her soldierly and womanly instincts told her—she should trust him!
~~~~~~~~~~
It was Professor Wei Wenqi who sent the video call invitation, so Xiao Cha's battle armor must have been secured.
Lu Li answered the call casually, and a middle-aged man with a square face and large ears appeared on the phone.
[Little Lu, you've grown so much! You look just like your great-grandfather!]
Professor Wei exchanged pleasantries while glancing at Lu Li's back.
A white mansion, a large garden, a swimming pool... this is clearly a luxury villa!
In that brief glimpse, he gained a more intuitive understanding of Lu Li's economic strength.
Lu Li asked, "Is the armor ready?"
Yes, I assembled a task force to tackle this project, and after many days of hard work, we finally completed the finished product...
As Professor Wei spoke, he pointed the camera at a 3D printer behind him.
Several young men in overalls were taking out printed metal parts and adjusting a metal armor.
The armor has a streamlined design and is composed of multiple layers of metal armor stacked and spliced together. At first glance, it looks somewhat like the Mark 2, but it is more robust.
Professor Wei explained:
[It uses multi-layered composite armor, with an average thickness of 1.5 cm. The outermost layer is boron nitride, and the inner layer is titanium-tungsten alloy and composite carbon fiber. It can stop not only heavy machine guns, but also artillery shells.]
[Weighs 220 kg, but ordinary people can wear it! Hey~ Xiao Sun, why don't you try it on?]
At Professor Wei's suggestion, a thin young man wearing glasses came to the back of the armor.
The camera panned over to reveal that the back of the armor was open, and Xiao Sun had pressed himself inside, with his arm guards tightening inwards.
With the sound of the gears turning, the rear of the armor slowly closed, fitting perfectly.
But Xiao Sun, an ordinary person, actually managed to move two steps while carrying the 400-pound armor!
Professor Wei said with a hint of pride:
[The armor utilizes my country's "soldier-friendly passive exoskeleton" technology, effectively reducing the stress on the spine and joints...]
Lu Li had heard of this technology before; it utilizes the physiological characteristics of crustaceans such as crabs and ants to disperse and transmit pressure.
But Xiao Sun was just an ordinary person. After slowly and laboriously taking two steps, he accidentally fell and punched the ground in the forehead, making a hole.
A group of people hurriedly helped him up. Professor Wei said helplessly:
"She's over 30 years old, and she walks so carelessly."
He quickly moved aside with his phone, smiling as he said:
These PhD students watch cartoons all day; their health is terrible. But it's thanks to their interest that they worked overtime to finish it. And you know what? It's actually quite interesting.
Professor Wei thought he was just making a large, exquisite toy for a rich person. Little did he know that in the hands of a martial artist, this thing was an absolute weapon of mass destruction!
Lu Li smiled and said, "I'm very satisfied with the armor. Just send it over."
With the client satisfied, Professor Wei was naturally pleased as well.
[I'll send it to you as soon as possible! By the way, the various parts of the armor can be assembled and disassembled, and the tightness can be adjusted with knobs. I'll have them attach an instruction manual for details.]
"Thank you, Professor Wei. It's been a pleasure working with you."
[Happy, happy... You look so much like your great-grandfather when he was young, even the way he talks is similar. I used to see him a lot in the yard when I was a child, you two are at least 90% alike.]
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, the two ended their call.
At that moment, a cry of surprise came from the garden.
The two girls were doing pull-ups. Jessica, huffing and puffing, kept up like a wind-up toy, doing a dozen or twenty in a row.
Teresa was stunned...
Jessica's strengths extend beyond just her physical attributes.
The little girl was already intelligent, and she also needed to burn Calming Incense every day.
In this other world, many people without Spirit Refinement cultivation also buy and use Calming Incense, precisely because of its effect of purifying the mind and clearing the spirit.
Parents especially like to buy these for their children to help them study and develop their intelligence.
In the days that followed, Jessica displayed astonishing talent.
He can learn all kinds of tactical movements in no time, and can quickly disassemble and assemble firearms after watching them once. He also achieved an excellent score of 90 rings out of 10 shots in 15-meter pistol shooting.
Aurora was pleasantly surprised, and the things she taught Jessica became increasingly professional.
In addition to individual combat skills, there are also concealment and observation skills.
When December 1st arrived, the three women prepared to go out with an M24 sniper rifle.
"Lu Li, Aurora is going to teach me sniping!"
Go ahead, be careful.
After seeing Jessica off with a beaming smile, Lu Li prepared to receive the last cargo of his trip.
