This is not mechanical ascension...

Chapter 33 Evolution! (Please vote)

Li Ming took the pistol and looked at the lewd smile on Li Ning's face with a strange expression.

[Balkan Type 11 Pistol - Not Graded: Basic model pistol, insufficient lethality.

Control conditions: 5 metal energy points

Control Effect: Gun Control - Getting Started
Control ability - years of practice: can temporarily improve firearm control to the elementary level. 】

"The way you hold the gun..." Li Ning opened his mouth, but stopped halfway through the words.

"What's wrong?" Li Ming asked back.

"Nothing, very standard." Li Ning couldn't help but ask, "Have you practiced before?"

"No, from the way you held it just now, isn't it just to control the center of gravity and maintain balance? The thumb and index finger hold the handle, and the middle finger, ring finger and little finger hold the bottom of the handle tightly to ensure stability." Li Ming said casually.

The assassination techniques brought by sniper rifles also involve a great deal of understanding of firearms. It can even be said that guns occupy a very important part.

If measured, it is at least basic firearms control.

"You... understand it very well, that's what the textbook says..." Li Ning was a little embarrassed, his eyes wandering, he coughed twice, and tried to be dignified, "Holding the gun is nothing, the next step is shooting."

Many people around noticed them. Li Ming has been a very popular figure recently.

Many people envy him but also sneer at him, thinking that he is just lucky, young and has no ability.

Seeing that they were doing firearms training, he immediately looked over with great interest to see how good this guy was.

"Come, I'll teach you." Li Ning's words had just fallen when Li Ming glanced at him nonchalantly. Before his gaze completely fell on the shooting range, tongues of fire spewed out.

Bang! Bang! …

Several shots in a row!
"10", "10", "10"

The training room, which had been somewhat noisy, suddenly became quiet, with only the cold sound of mechanical alarms.

Click!

Li Ming pushed the magazine upwards, lowered his head, raised the pistol with one hand, and fired! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another round of "10"

Everyone looked at him and swallowed secretly.

Li Ning's cheeks twitched and he was speechless: "You...you...you..."

"Brother Li, did I pass the test?" Li Ming asked, tilting his head.

Li Ning felt bitter: "This... is just a pistol, there are other firearms..."

Having said that, with Li Ming's current accuracy, he would be able to easily master other firearms after just some familiarization.

The others looked at each other and pretended to train as if nothing had happened. They felt sad. Many of them were not as accurate as Li Ming. It felt like they were just training like dogs.

The situation was just as Li Ning had predicted. A few minutes later, he signed his name on the virtual screen reluctantly, as if he had lost his temper.

When he goes out on field missions again, Li Ming can carry a gun.

Back on the 223rd floor, Yang Peng seemed to be giving a lecture. When he saw them coming, he looked at Li Ming and said:
"Li Ming's formalization procedures have been completed. You should take him through the necessary procedures, especially the firearms training, so that he doesn't have to go out on field missions with only binoculars."

It would have been better if he hadn't said anything. Once he did, the already depressed Li Ning couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Captain Yang, you're too late."

"Huh?" Yang Peng was puzzled, and then his face suddenly changed. Thinking of the time when they came down from upstairs, he said in a deep voice, "What's going on? Has Li Ming been banned?"

The ban means that if a gun is accidentally discharged during training, resulting in casualties, the carrying of firearms is completely prohibited.

Upon learning that Li Ming had become an F-class life form and had made great contributions, Yang Peng changed his mind about transferring him to logistics and instead wanted to focus on his training.

If the ban is triggered, we will be in big trouble.

The gathered crowd couldn't help but look at the young rookie.

"How is that possible?" Li Ning was speechless, not knowing why Captain Yang would think so. "Li Ming has passed the assessment."

"What?" Everyone's eyes changed. Lao Dao suddenly stood up and said in a deep voice: "Li Ning, you can't let him go just because you have a good relationship."

"Brother Dao, I know the severity of the situation. I have copied the video of the assessment." Li Ning said, and played it immediately. The field was silent, with only a series of bangs! bangs! bangs! and "10", "10", "10".

Everyone's face changed. Looking at the quiet boy on the screen, they felt like they had lived in vain.

Yang Peng's eyes narrowed slightly. He knew that Li Ming was already an F-level life form, and all aspects of his physical qualities had been greatly improved. He would also be able to pass the firearms training quickly, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

Or...it's not the first time he's touched a gun.

But he followed Li Changhai to Li Ming's school more than once to ask for an explanation.

The child was often beaten black and blue. He would avoid looking at him and dare not resist at all.

If he had been holding a gun since childhood and had become courageous, such a thing would not have happened, unless... he was deliberately enduring it, and had been enduring it since childhood?
Combined with his suspicion of Li Changhai, Yang Peng felt a chill down his spine when he saw Li Ming's calm face.

"Very good." Yang Peng suppressed his messy thoughts and relaxed for a while.

After the meeting, several old hands gathered together and stared at one of them with unfriendly expressions, "Lao Diao, didn't you say that Li Ming is cowardly, taciturn, and can't accomplish anything?"

"Last time, Captain Yang should have forced the credit on him, but what about this time? Captain Yang shot him while hiding and holding his hand?"

"So, you told us to avoid him, but you let your brother-in-law take care of him. What a calculation..."

"Brothers, this is a misunderstanding. I have seen him several times before, but he didn't even say hello." Lao Diao smiled awkwardly, "Besides, it was Captain Yang who designated Li Ning to lead the team. It has nothing to do with me."

"Go away, I won't believe you anymore."

……

After work, I went to the scrap yard as usual, but it was already past five o'clock, so I could only stay there for three hours, 20 points of metal energy, and one ton of materials.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed. The security in the city has been good recently. I heard that several gangs outside the city have suffered major blows.

Until this day, in early July, it was raining heavily. The whole scrapyard was filled with the crackling sound of raindrops hitting the ground. Lightning flashed from time to time, tearing through the night sky of Silver Gray City, making people feel uneasy.

"Young man, it's raining heavily, please be careful on the road." The guard was already very familiar with Li Ming.

"You too, Brother Sun." Li Ming smiled and returned home on the transport ship.

During these three days, he came here every day after get off work, and with the previous accumulation, the metal energy had reached 540 points, and it also drained his savings.

At the same time, the development progress of gene seeds has reached 42%. After reaching the 30% node, even if the voltage is increased, the development speed will slow down a lot.

He originally estimated that it could reach 50%, but it was enough.

Combined with a charged attack, the burst energy level can reach 120F, which has exceeded the standard of F-class life forms.

Close the door, lock it, and go upstairs.

Li Ming took a deep breath, four-arm machine tool, evolution! !
Four mechanical arms extended from Li Ming's back, gradually covered with a light golden light. The silver-white metal on the surface seemed to shed its skin, peeling off layer by layer and turning into ashes.

The sophisticated mechanical structure inside changed dramatically, with layer upon layer of metal stacked up and reconstructed, and the diameter expanded by nearly double.

The metal surface is smooth, and the faintly visible patterns are very beautiful, reflecting touches of light. The ring-shaped connecting links are more complex, with layers of clamping, adding a sound-absorbing structure.

The already sturdy cross-type forceps have almost doubled in size, providing a wider coverage area.

The drill bit and saw blade that he welded on at the beginning also changed. The ugly welding marks disappeared, and they became one with the robotic arm, with a kind of violent beauty.

"Is this evolution... a magical power." Li Ming witnessed the whole process and marveled inwardly.

hum!
The mind moved slightly, the drill hummed, the air flow rolled, and the curtains fluttered.

At the same time, a large amount of information poured into his mind. Li Ming's eyes went dark and he almost fell down again. After all, he had experienced it once and he managed to hold on.

Mechanical maintenance also rose to the intermediate level, bringing a lot of new knowledge, which was enough to support a large repair shop.

Not long after, he exhaled, and the four transformed mechanical arms suddenly stretched out, and the sound of stretching and retracting almost disappeared.

"Four meters of extension length, very good..." Li Ming looked out the window, "It's a dark and windy night with heavy rain. It's the perfect time to kill people!"
