Chapter 474: Tunnel
Translator: Lonelytree
Xu Lun’s face darkened again when the girls started talking among themselves.
“What are you doing? Am I not here? I told you to remove your makeup. Did you not hear me?” Xu Lun roared angrily. He was impressed by Mo Li’s flawless skin but he had to maintain the law at the camp, or else how would the training continue?
Zhu Huan stuck out her tongue at him. The three women returned after five minutes. Xu Lun was surprised because he could barely recognize them. It was especially true for Bian Mei, she could do magic with makeup!
“Remember, when you’re in training, you are to speak only when spoken to and you will have to follow every instruction, understood?”
“Yes, sir!”
Pan Huang’s reply was the loudest. Instead, the second youngest, Ding Cheng’s voice was as soft as a mosquito.
“Today, we’re going to perform poison gas training. We’re going through a poison gas tunnel. Everyone will be given an oxygen tank. The oxygen tank can be used every five minutes but it’ll take at least 12 minutes to get through the tunnel. You’ll have to figure out a way how to resolve this. You’ll be working with our country’s recruits.”
Upon hearing this, Ding Cheng shouted again, “Are you crazy? You are sending us into a poisonous tunnel? If anything happens to us…”
“Don’t worry, we have the best doctors on site. Plus you are allowed to use other things. However, each person is only allowed to bring two items with them, so think about it carefully!”
The oxygen tank was a necessity so it was the other item that was the key. No one expected this training so they didn’t bring along any gas masks.
“All of you have ten minutes to prepare. Get moving! Otherwise, it’ll be dangerous when you’re inside!”
Everyone mobilized. Fang Ming and Xiao Ran stood to the side. They had a good understanding of their stamina. They knew they could run through the tunnel within the allocated time. Pan Huang did some stretching, he was ready to compete with the youngsters. He asked the production team for a wet towel.
As for the girl, Zhu Huan had confidence in her stamina. Meanwhile, Cheng Xiao started vocal training to increase the time she could hold her breath.
Bai Mian was flustered and decided to grab a face mask from the infirmary.
Mo Li knew the crux of the problem was to stop the poison in the air from entering the body so she came up with a simple filter.
Mo Li asked for a soda can and a small toolbox from the staff. She used nails to create a sieve on the bottom to serve as the air inlet for the filter. Then she cut the opening to fit her nose and face.
She borrowed some hair gel from Fang Ming to use as glue. Finally, she used a rubber band to secure the outlet so the mask could be opened and closed.
Xu Lun looked on with disbelief. She is making a poison filter? With the thing we have on hand? How is that possible?
Mo Li compared the mask with her fingernails and then she placed something inside. Then she added something to stop the filling material from vibrating.
She squeezed the canister from the inside out and used a mask cloth to seal the joint securely. Mo Li just completed when she heard the notification to enter the tunnel.
Ding Chen looked like Mo Li with disdain. Is the girl mentally ill? If that thing is useful, why would we need oxygen gas tanks?
After the whistle, the people who led the group were Fang Ming and Xiao Ran. Zhu Huan followed behind them. Ding Cheng hesitated at the mouth of the tunnel before he was pushed in by Xu Lun. Bian Mei and Cheng Xiao walked in together holding hands.
Mo Li narrowed her eyes at the amount of smoke in the tunnel. As she expected, other than poison gas, there was smoke. Thankfully she had added some cotton to the filter.
Fang Ming and Xiao Ran were still in the lead, they were faster than some of the recruits. When he saw the small dot of light in the distance, Fang Ming put on the oxygen mask. He finished the training in 9 minutes. Xiao Ran was a close second who finished it in 11 minutes.
Zhu Huan and Pan Huang walked out at the same time. Pan Huang was still okay but Zhu Huan was shaking all over. For a moment, she saw death.
Mo Li felt around her surroundings as she moved forward. She suddenly kicked on something and almost tripped.
She looked closer and noticed it was a fresh-faced recruit. Mo Li groped around his body and was shocked to realize he was not carrying an oxygen tank!
