Chapter 443: Chapter 65: The Last Member_2 Chapter 443: Chapter 65: The Last Member_2 The four of them lined up to listen to Huang Que speak.
“Our team’s chief scientist…
and of course, the only scientist and engineer Liu Feng, will probably come here to meet up with us in about a month.
He will bring the Alpha Substance Capturer, along with the precise time, location, and altitude details of the Alpha Substance’s arrival in Earth’s atmosphere, a detailed flight plan, and other specifics that we’ll determine once we have more concrete intelligence.”
“What we need to do now is for you three team members—Lin Xian, Chu Anqing, and Gao Yang—to undergo physical training here at this secret base under the guidance of instructor Wei Cheng and, if there’s extra energy, to learn how to operate the equipment on the Skyspace Aircraft.”
Gao Yang raised his hand:
“Doesn’t that Liu Feng need to undergo training?”
Huang Que glanced at Gao Yang with a “you sure ask a lot” look:
“Liu Feng needs to carry a portable detection device to lock onto the position of the Alpha Substance at all times to guide Wei Cheng in piloting the Skyspace Aircraft’s flight path.
He’ll be sitting in the cockpit, so he just needs to undergo some overload training when the time comes.
His tasks are not as heavy as yours.”
“Okay, that’s enough about specifics for now.
As they say, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Let’s start with physical and overload training.”

“Another thing…time is tight, and the mission is critical.
Don’t plan on going home for the Lunar New Year’s Eve that’s coming up soon.
Continue training here.
At most, I can give you the evening off on New Year’s Eve to go out for a stroll and relax, but don’t even think about rest at any other time; we’re really short on time.”
After finishing, Huang Que clapped her hands and made a gesture to dismiss everyone:
“That’s all I have to say.
Since no one seems to have any questions, let’s start training immediately.
Wei Cheng, you take them and—”
Gao Yang raised his hand again, interrupting Huang Que.
Huang Que’s brows twitched with a “what’s with all your nuisances” look as she stared at Gao Yang:
“What’s your problem now?”
“Aren’t we going to eat first?
Can’t we have a meal before getting to work?”
Gao Yang’s eyes were clear and innocent as he rubbed his belly:
“I’m hungry.”
…
…
“Heave-ho!”
Chu Anqing jumped off the recently stopped rotating chair, just like a ballet dancer finishing a performance, lightly touching the ground on her tiptoes, standing firm and steady without any wobble.
Wei Cheng stared at the data on the instruments in amazement and turned to look at Chu Anqing:
“Not dizzy?”
“Not at all.”
“Nauseous?
Blurred vision, feeling like vomiting or anything?”
“Nope.”
Chu Anqing spun around twice on the spot, looking at Wei Cheng with a relaxed and happy expression:
“See, no problem at all.”
Wei Cheng took a sharp breath…
and drew several check marks in the notebook he was holding:
“Incredible, with your physical attributes, you’re a born astronaut!”
Lin Xian and Gao Yang stood quietly to the side, listening to Wei Cheng’s endless praise for Chu Anqing.
They couldn’t bring themselves to say anything.
Since arriving at the Astronaut Secret Training Base half a month ago, Chu Anqing showed unbelievable talent during training.
In various programs such as the centrifuge, rotating chair, buoyancy tank, weightlessness simulator, and so on…
Chu Anqing didn’t need any adjustment at all!
𝘯𝗈𝘷𝘨𝘰.co
She would just take a seat and immediately dial up to full power!
After a fierce session of thrashing about, she’d then jump down like a kitten, all content and even giggling:
“That was fun, so much fun~”
“Much more interesting than a roller coaster!”
“Can we go for another round?”
In the past, Wei Cheng had doubted if something in Chu Anqing’s brain, like a neural center, was underdeveloped, or maybe her inner ear was dysfunctional?
It’s impossible for a normal person to go through such devilish training and come out totally unscathed!
Her physical condition was just too exaggerated!
But after a medical check-up, it turned out everything in Chu Anqing was developing normally, whether it was the brain or any other organ in her body.
This utterly changed Wei Cheng’s initial impression of Chu Anqing as just a “pretty face,” and he became an enthusiastic admirer:
“It’s incredible…not only are you so physically strong, but your coordination skills are also quite impressive.
I wonder if it’s related to your years of dance practice.
Actually…
when the country selects pilots, they also encounter many children who have been dancing from a young age, yet their coordination is not as strong…”
“No wonder Miss Huang Que specifically called for you!
Honestly, at first, I was reluctant to speak up, I thought it was inappropriate for Miss Huang Que to bring a teenage girl along, but since she is the commander-in-chief, I definitely had to follow orders unconditionally, so I didn’t say much.”
“But now I completely understand, Miss Huang Que has a discerning eye, no wonder the national authorities trust her so much…
An Qing, someone with a one-in-a-million astronaut physique like yours is truly hard to find, even with a lantern, and yet Miss Huang Que was able to discover you among the masses—it really shows her capability and methods.”
He rapidly made several more check marks in his notebook, full of praise.
“As for the other two…”
Narrowing his eyes, he looked at Lin Xian and Gao Yang standing silently by the wall in an exasperated manner.
Especially Gao Yang.
He was currently whistling and picking at the wall, acting as if saying, “You can’t see me, I’m invisible…”
On the first day of centrifuge training.
Gao Yang had eagerly volunteered to go first.
Facing the sideways hammer-like centrifuge, Gao Yang was dismissive:
