Chen Yi closed his eyes and felt it for a while. The soreness seemed to disappear, and his vision returned to normal. Things were no longer so blurry.

Contrary to expectations, I didn't start to feel tired or even lose my vision after using it for a while. On the contrary, my concentration improved, and I became more adept at using the 'mark' function.

Chen Yi stopped using the marking function, closed his eyes, and did a set of eye exercises etched into his DNA.

...The sour and astringent sensation intensified.

Chen Yi picked up his phone and went back to the bathroom, turning on his flashlight to examine it closely.

The purple hue disappeared, and under the light, Chen Yi's eyes returned to their original wine-red color.

"..."

Was that just now the 'warm-up' process?

A hypothesis came to mind.

......

"So you just looked around all afternoon?"

Rio Futaba rubbed her temples, looking helpless, unsure how to lecture Chen Yi about his risky actions.

What if it's different from your guess?

She pressed for an answer.

"This feeling is gradual, and the so-called 'boiling frog in lukewarm water' is impossible. The frog will jump out when the water temperature gets too high." Chen Yi stared at Shuangye with his dark blue eyes, which showed no emotion, only a cold gaze.

Chilling.

"Now that Yi Jun's left eye has turned blue... he actually looks even more creepy."

Mai Sakurajima commented.

"So how do you feel right now? Be specific." Futaba looked intently into that eye.

"It feels even more comfortable than my other eye, cool and refreshing," Chen Yi replied, his tone serious.

"So, according to you, your previous behavior was really just 'warming up'?"

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances," Chen Yi said, shrugging.

"Isn't there a threshold or upper limit?" Futaba complained.

Did you forget the law of conservation of mass?

"I tested it all afternoon, but it's not like it's the Sharingan, how would I know?"

There might be a threshold, but we haven't reached it yet.

"So, is the change in your eye color gradual, or phased?" Futaba pushed up her glasses.

“It’s slow, but it can be roughly divided into five stages,” Chen Yi replied.

If we're talking about colors, there are roughly five iconic stages, ranging from burgundy to navy blue, dark purplish-brown, imperial purple, and indigo.

"How long has it been since you last used it?"

"It takes about half an hour. After warming up, it's not so easy for it to cool down." Chen Yi put the repaired rifle aside and reached out to the two men.

"Where are your guns? I'd like to get them serviced while I'm at it."

Futaba and Mai Sakurajima returned almost immediately after their afternoon classes. Since there were still at least two hours until dinner, they could do something else to pass the time.

"No matter how you look at it, it's just too outrageous..." Futaba muttered under her breath, opened her disguise bag, took out the M4 and handed it to Chen Yi.

"So, will Yi Jun go to school tomorrow?"

"Of course I'll go. My eyes aren't as noticeable now, are they? I'll just get up a little earlier tomorrow morning and go to the balcony to do some intensive marking for half an hour."

Chen Yi came up with a solution that wasn't really a solution.

After all, it takes at least a month to get custom-made contact lenses, so it's not a matter of whether or not to pay extra.

......

"Hey kid, you took the day off today? What happened? Is it convenient for you to tell me?"

After dinner, Chen Yi received a phone call from Hiratsuka Shizuka.

"It's nothing, I'm just not feeling well."

Chen Yi answered, his fingers rapidly tapping on the keyboard.

He was researching improvement plans for exoskeletons. The Ironblood's 'Yinglong 4' model had a lot of design redundancy, which made people very curious.

Have you seen a doctor?

"I didn't go. I just stayed home and rested for a while, and that was about it."

"Okay, then you should be able to come back tomorrow, right?"

"no problem."

"How have you been lately? School has started, and I see your grades seem to have slipped a bit."

"Uh, I just haven't reviewed it yet," Chen Yi replied somewhat awkwardly, pausing for a moment.

"It's nothing, I didn't mean to cause you any trouble, don't be nervous."

"That's all for now. I won't bother you any longer. We can talk about the rest when we get back to school tomorrow."

Hiratsuka Shizuka hung up the phone without hesitation.

"Ah Yi, what do you think of this design?"

Before she could even ponder Hiratsuka Shizuka's intentions, Futaba Rio handed her a sketch, demonstrating her design concept.

"You mean, a omnidirectional robotic arm extends from the waist to act as a gimbal for controlling the firearm, so that one hand can be freed up for other things?"

Chen Yi pondered for a moment and was amazed by Shuangye's line of thinking.

P.S.: Good luck on the college entrance exam, meow!

Grade 11: Chapter 166 Website

Chapter 166

"Is now the time to get into the zone?"

Sakurajima Mai looked at Chen Yi's dark blue iris and asked.

In bright outdoor light, the abnormality in Chen Yi's eyes was still quite noticeable; a faint blue tinge could be seen, concealing a chilling aura.

No matter how many times she looks at it, Mai Sakurajima can't get used to that eye.

"I got up half an hour earlier this morning, so I think it's about time now."

The tram lurched, and the three of them stumbled.

"You really don't feel tired or anything?"

Rio Futaba was scrolling through her phone when she casually asked a question.

"I feel tired when I don't use it, but I don't feel tired when I use it more. I find it very strange."

Chen Yi replied that Shuangye had confirmed this question many times.

"By the way, have the new parts been ordered yet?"

"The order is in order, but it hasn't been shipped yet. I asked them to postpone it for a while, and to order a new batch of parts and send them over once the omnidirectional robotic arm and prototype fairy are designed."

"The original fairy?" Futaba asked in confusion.

"An improved version of the fairy, removing all functions except for flight, but enhancing its flight capabilities."

Chen Yi opened the document on his phone and showed the results of what he had worked on for half the night before going to bed.

The six-armed drone is about the size of a pack of tissues, similar to a shuttle, but thicker.

Below the belly of the machine, there are four small robotic arms, the purpose of which is unknown.

"What is the application scope of this?"

"For sale." Chen Yi smiled mysteriously.

Kroos had already registered a shell foundation through the flow of funds, and now all he had to do was stuff some 'contents' into the foundation so that outsiders wouldn't suspect anything.

—That's perfectly normal. In this kind of world, private military enterprises are as common as stray dogs on the street. Chen Yi's shell organization is mixed in with them, and trying to find any clues about it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Would anyone really buy something like this?" Futaba thought it was a bit far-fetched.

"Who knows? It's just a toy, and the price isn't high. We can paint it a bit to make it look cool, and some people might buy it to play with when they're bored." Chen Yi shrugged.

The prototype fairy itself is a new design born from the redesign of the fairy. For Chen Yi himself, it does not provide any substantial improvement in equipment; it only demonstrates the feasibility of a new flight platform.

"But then again... the fairies have grown so much bigger, they can't do some of the narrow-area missions that used to work..."

Chen Yi thought about it again.

Although current prototype platforms can be equipped with different platforms and meet different mission requirements as needed, their portability has decreased, and they no longer have that sense of surprise of being able to pull them out of your pocket at any time.

"Why don't we just use the old-style fairy?" Rio Futaba retorted.

"The only advantage of the old models is their small size. Whether it's the structural layout, flight capability, or even the most basic endurance, there's not much room for application anymore."

Chen Yi has a habit of post-battle debriefing, and he is increasingly dissatisfied with his early design approach of blindly pursuing miniaturization and indoor combat to avoid the birdmen.

Ultimately, there are many ways to avoid birdmen. Being flexible enough is one option, and having the ability to defend oneself is another. As his understanding of the world deepens, there is no need to cling to the old designs.

"So what are your plans...?" Rio Futaba listened attentively.

"Independently design a miniaturized unmanned reconnaissance and strike unit," Chen Yi replied.

This type of reconnaissance and strike unmanned unit does not necessarily need to be able to fly; it depends on the application scenario.

Chen Yi had many ideas in his mind waiting for him to put them into practice, but he needed to consider which option was the best.

......

Fast forward to the departmental activities.

"Is the website... ready yet?"

Yukinoshita borrowed Kasumigaoka's notebook and typed in the website address Chen Yi had mentioned.

What you see is a black and white, somewhat rudimentary webpage, with almost nothing on it except for a background logo and an input window.

"I forgot to ask about the specific requirements the day before yesterday, so I hardly added any features when I was making it."

Chen Yi, head down, scrolled through his phone and replied casually.

"Was this logo also designed by Xiao Chen? It looks really cool."

Yuihama couldn't discern any technical sophistication, so she simply picked a topic she recognized and began to speak.

"Uh, this logo... ah, I guess so."

Chen Yi replied.

Actually, this logo is directly taken from the 404. team logo of Klúva, and it wasn't designed by him.

I'm not good at design.

"Does this logo not quite align with our...business direction?"

Snow carefully considered her words.

"It shouldn't matter, isn't the Reunion Movement's flag also a DNA pattern..."

Chen Yi subconsciously made a sarcastic remark.

"What is the Reunion Movement?" Yuihama quietly asked Yotsuya Miko, who seemed to completely misunderstand what Xiao Chen was saying.

"I don't know either," Yotsuya Miko answered honestly.

"It's the villainous organization from the game 'Last Night's Round Car,' I think they're a rebel army," Kato, who had no presence at all, answered.

Oh my god, porridge!

Have cockroaches crossed the world to follow us here? That's terrifying.

"It's a 2D tower defense game, from the University of Tokyo. The story is quite heartwarming."

Kasumigaoka explained.
