Chapter 735: Chapter 728: Using the Tutorial

"Am I the only one you guys have forgotten?" Mr. Yalunte, who was left out, scratched his head and asked a little embarrassingly.

"Oh, I was off-topic. I was introducing the ultra-mobility device, but somehow we talked about Ronisca." Li Si slapped his forehead and said.

"I want to know if this device has any special key functions, or does it just enable you to jump high?" Luoer, scanning the device on Mr. Yalunte, posed the question he ought to ask as the captain.

"Of course, there’s more," Li Si waved his hand and said, "As you just saw, this device improves two major areas, high jump and high landing. Next, Mr. Yalunte will show you other functions of the ultra-mobility device: long jump."

With those words, he turned his head and ordered Mr. Yalunte: "Mr. Yalunte, please start!"

"Watch closely, everyone," Mr. Yalunte prepared in a jumping stance, and then pointed at the distant fence and said," From here to the fence, it’s more than a hundred meters, count how long I will need to run there."

After saying that, Mr. Yalunte leapt forward vigorously, and, like an arrow shot from a bow, he soared, gliding in the air for about ten meters from the starting point to his landing position. Then, he jumped up again and leap forward with his momentum, again covering almost ten meters in flight.

And so, more than a hundred meters distance, Mr. Yalunte reached the foot of the fence with less than ten leaps. He was grinning as he turned and waved at everyone.

"Wow, this is great! This way we won’t have to trudge on our journeys, we can leap and leap, both fast and effortless!" Hu Daoke said excitedly.

"You’re overthinking it. If you did this, your magic crystal would run out of magic power before you cover two miles." Cheng Ziang gave him a glance and said.

"Uh," hearing Cheng Ziang’s words, Li Si coughed, then said a little awkwardly, "Indeed, this device does consume a lot of magic power, so the magic crystals need to be replaced frequently."

"This long jump function should be used for rapid mobility on the battlefield, after all, this device is called the ultra-mobility device, not defined as a means of transport." Luoer explained calmly.

"Yes, yes indeed. It is certainly used for rapid mobility on the battlefield." Relieved by Luoer’s intervention, Li Si quickly nodded in agreement.

Tangmo watched the rushing Yalunte from a distance, then suddenly turned his head and asked Li Si a key question: "How long can this device run on the energy supplied by the No. 10 Magic Crystal?"

"Hmm, over an hour I guess..." Li Si scratched his head, a bit hesitant to say.

"Can’t you be precise? Exactly how long?" Tangmo raised his eyebrows, tilting his head and asked earnestly.

"Well, we are still testing it," Li Si shrugged, then looked at the approaching Yalunte and said, "That’s why we invited Mr. Yalunte here, although we haven’t got the exact data yet, it can definitely work for an hour."

"So, impressive isn’t it?" Mr. Yalunte looked at Cheng Ziang and asked as if asking for credit.

Seeing his excited expression, Cheng Ziang managed to smile, then focused his gaze on the activation device at his waist, a thought suddenly popped up in his head.

"Brother Li, if I adjust the altitude to one thousand meters on flat ground, and then activate the rune, doesn’t it mean that I can ascend over one thousand meters right here?" Cheng Ziang asked with interest.

"Uh, in principle it’s possible, but it’s not recommended." Li Si hesitated before replying.

"So, this altitude correction feature is actually to protect the users, right? After all, the device can only supply power for an hour," Cheng Ziang said with a smile.

"Actually," Li Si pressed his hands down, then said solemnly, "everyone should have confidence in our scientific research department. This is just a frontier product, and improved versions will continue to be rolled out. If we don’t use it, the R&D department won’t have any practice data to make improvements, so we all need to understand."

"We didn’t say we had no confidence in this device." Cheng Ziang shrugged his shoulders, looking innocent.

"Well," Luoer nodded, "knowing that it can be used for one hour is enough. At least we know what to expect. We just hope that the R&D department won’t brag about its invincible shields or spears, like in the past."

Upon hearing Luoer’s words, everyone present gave a knowing bitter smile. If anyone had been hurt the most by the research department, it was without a doubt Luoer, who had been shot and then contracted Magic Power Erosion due to their sub-par protective gear.

"Don’t worry," Li Si consoled, "after being critiqued by the chief last time, the research center’s exaggeration has been curtailed."

"No matter what, all of you are the ones HQ trusts the most. All the good things come to you first. Even though they do have some deficiencies, they will eventually be improved," Li Si said, turning to Mr. Yalunte, "next, let’s hear from Mr. Yalunte on how to use the super mobility device!"

"Come, come, children, I’m going to demonstrate some genuine skills for you now." Yalunte clapped his hands excitedly and deliberately glanced at Cheng Ziang at the end.

Noticing Yalunte’s gaze, Cheng Ziang rolled his eyes and ignored him. In stark contrast to him, Feng was standing beside Yalunte, looking up at him with her immaculate, starry eyes.

"Firstly," Yalunte began as everyone gathered around, "the super mobility device can only move straight up and down. So, if you want to reach the peak of the mountain behind me, you’ll need to adjust your position on the ground, aligning your path with the peak. Then, make sure you land accurately at the top. Now, let me demonstrate it again."

With that, Yalunte turned around, slightly bending his knees, his left hand resting on his waist and then he instantly leaped to the top of the mountain. Feng, seeing this, also tried to follow his leap, but was pulled back by Tangmo and drawn to his side.

"See?" Yalunte jumped back down and turned to everyone, "I didn’t reach the top of the mountain by jumping with my own legs, but by relying on the super mobility device. However, the initial jump before activating the device is also important, as it directly affects whether or not you can accurately land on the peak!"

"So, this requires practice!" Luoer nodded in agreement.

"Indeed," Yalunte nodded and continued, "also, at any time, whenever you need to use super mobility, your left hand must always remain on the activation device. Absolutely do not move it."

"But if we do that, wouldn’t we be left with only one hand to fight with," Hu Daoke asked, turning to look at Li Si, "can’t the activation device be put on the wrist or hand instead?"

"In that case, there would be too many mistakes and accidental activations," Li Si shook his head, "actually, having it on the waist is the result of multiple evaluations by the research center. Their priority is not whether the super mobility device can achieve super mobility, but whether the user can activate the device in time. Without proper activation, all super mobility effects are wasted. Therefore, when using it, make sure one of your hands can always activate the device, to avoid dangerous situations, especially when jumping from high places."

"You need to adjust the activation device according to the height you need," Yalunte said, "as an individual user, I’d advise you to not be stingy when using it for the first time. Use it liberally and then rein it in. After a few times, you’ll get used to it."

"Looks like you’re already very proficient!" Cheng Ziang looked at him, saying with a slight smirk.

"Of course," Yalunte said, obviously pleased by Cheng Ziang’s compliment, "otherwise why would I ask Li Si for a set?"

"I didn’t agree to give you one, that needs HQ’s approval." Li Si waved his hands, looking innocent.
