Ultra Scientist: I have a fear of insufficient firepower

"The bad news is that after discussion, the self-defense counterattack against the Absoluts is scheduled to begin in seven days."

Sykes said simply.

"Isn't this good news?" Hikari asked strangely, "What did you do to Tartarus? How could you force him to reveal the location of his home planet?"

Sykes shook his head slightly, "No, Tartarus has a strong sense of racial honor and would rather die than tell."

Hearing this, Hikaru's expression changed slightly: "You mean the Science and Technology Bureau is here to look for us? Seven days is a bit tight, but we can still complete the task by working overtime. This news is a bit bad, but it's acceptable. After all, we have captured Tartarus, so we don't have to worry about him continuing to do things..."

Before he could finish, Sykes shook his head and interrupted, "Commander, it's not seven days. The captain gave a deadline of four days."

"What?!" Hikaru was shocked. "Four days?! There's not even a moment's rest time. What kind of news is this?!"

Sykes shrugged. "It's the captain's request. Don't look at me like that. He originally only wanted to give us three days, but I fought hard to extend it to four days. Instead of complaining, you might as well speed up the development of the Gordis cell antibody so I can go save Old Mac."

Hikaru's face darkened: "You still want to go out?!"

Sykes was busy with his work and did not answer.

Hikaru couldn't bear it anymore and said directly: "I can also operate the hyperdimensional engine. You stay and take charge. I haven't rested for more than half a month. Let me go!"

Sykes looked up and glanced at him, then said faintly, "Chief, you really can't go this time."

Hikaru was puzzled and asked, "Why?"

Sykes said slowly: "After confirming the location of the Absolut home planet, we need to investigate the situation first. I am on the list of members for this mission, so I need to ensure a good mental state!"

"You bastard!" Hikaru said angrily, "No wonder you act like nothing happened. It seems like you are dumping all the pressure on me, right?!"

Sykes spread his hands and said, "Stop reading. Developing antibodies against Gordis cells is more important."

"Asshole, remember this!" Hikaru said this angrily, temporarily stopped the battle, and continued to concentrate on research and development.

Sora, who was silently processing experimental data nearby, had a calm expression. The two directors often quarreled and then made up. She had long been accustomed to it and would never dare to intervene to mediate.

......

Ott Arena.

Libut stood solemnly on a jeep monster training platform.

After a day and a half of high-intensity training, he had already felt that his strength and skills had reached a bottleneck. As long as he could break through, he would be able to release his body's potential and gain a huge improvement!

"Max, I will definitely come to rescue you, hold on!"

Muttering to himself, he immediately started the Purgatory Mode challenge again!

Whistle rustle!

Three jeep monsters transformed, six huge tires rolled, the engines roared, eight mechanical arms bared their fangs and claws on the body of the car, and rushed towards Libut at a ghostly speed.

Bang bang bang!

At the beginning, Libut was in good condition and could easily deal with the attack of the jeep monster.

But as time went on, his condition deteriorated and he could no longer defend himself from attacks, and was madly ravaged by the jeep monster.

"The power that is dormant in my body... wake up!!!"

Libut roared, using his fighting instinct to fight back against the jeep monster.

But unfortunately, his movements were too messy and he didn't grasp the key points. Not only did he fail to block many attacks from the jeep monster, but his own strength began to be rapidly consumed because of his random punches.

Two and a half minutes later.

The speed of absorbing the radiation energy of the plasma spark tower could not keep up with the high consumption. His red light flashed, his movements began to slow down, and finally he could no longer withstand the attack of the three-headed jeep monster and was knocked around like a ball.

Finally, with his energy completely exhausted, he triggered the jeep's emergency braking mechanism and was knocked off the training platform by a robotic arm.

The inspector standing by immediately carried him into the medical cabin for treatment.

Two and a half minutes later.

Libut, who had recovered his full state, sat up with a lonely look on his face and muttered to himself:

"Why, why can't I get past Jeep Monster Purgatory Mode?"

"My physical fitness can obviously rank among the top 30 in the arena, and my fighting skills can also be rated as excellent...but why can the fighters behind me pass, but I can't?"

"Is it really because I don't have enough time to train and I don't train seriously enough?"

"Max, I'm so useless... I'm sorry..."

Just when Libut was feeling sorry for himself.

Gray and Power, who had returned from their mission, also came to the arena.

Seeing Libut's cowardly appearance, Pawat immediately stepped forward and scolded him:

"Libute, you give up on yourself when you encounter difficulties. Are you worthy of Max's trust?!"

"I..." Libut was ashamed.

Gray was also very disappointed and said: "You have too many distracting thoughts and your will is not strong enough. Only by facing what your heart really wants can you discover your true potential!"

"Face your own heart..." Libut thought thoughtfully.

Gray continued, "Discard all distracting thoughts and open up the dormant realm in your heart. I have always believed that you have great potential!"

"Abandon all distractions, the dormant realm in my heart, my potential..."

Libut murmured, the light in his eyes growing brighter.

Suddenly, he stood up!

Put your hands on your chest, hold your breath, concentrate, and let your consciousness sink...

In a trance, the blue sky, green grass, forest, stream... appeared before my eyes.

Libut sank into his inner world, standing calmly on a high mountain. Then, a series of shadows appeared, and the movements they made were the martial arts they had practiced in the past...

"Strong will, noble character... creating from nothing, embracing all rivers and returning to one, this is the real strength..."

"I have things I want to protect, friends, peace, justice... That's why I'm strong!"

Thinking of this, Libut suddenly looked up.

The shadows appearing all around suddenly disintegrated into azure particles, and finally poured into Libute's body!

Until this moment, Libut finally succeeded in stimulating the potential of his body, breaking the mirror in an instant and reaching the limit of his physical body!

If you want to go further, you can only break through into this legendary realm by relying on your willpower and stimulating your spiritual power!

"Thank you for your guidance. I think... now I can easily defeat the Jeep Monster Challenge Arena!"

Libut bowed solemnly to Gray and Power, then jumped onto the jeep monster training platform.

Purgatory mode, on!

This time.

By combining combat martial arts to form his own fighting style and mastering the skills of receiving, transforming and releasing, Libut will never be beaten by jeep monsters without being able to fight back again!

Half an hour later.

[Congratulations to challenger Libut for completing the Jeep Monster Training Station in 25 minutes and 25 seconds, ranking 25th on the challenge list. ]

Looking at his results, Libut said with high morale: "This is far from my limit. I want to be in the top 20... not the top 10!"

After that, the challenge started again.

But unfortunately, imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

The top 20 were all masters. Even though Libute had given his best and tried his best to fight for every second, he still couldn't make it into the top 20.

Eight hours later.

His result finally settled at 23rd on the Jeep Monster Training Platform Challenge list, just rising by two places.

It's not that he doesn't want to continue, he's addicted to practice and still feels a little unsatisfied. However, the Godis cell antibody is successfully developed, and Sora comes to inform him to prepare to rescue Max.
