25: Chapter 25: The Agent Wife Returns to the Team, Donning a Mech Suit to Take on the Squad Alone

"Comrade Lin Yun, this is the preliminary test report for the 'Individual Exoskeleton System'."

Old Chen's voice trembled with a hint of disbelief as he handed a report to Lin Yun.

Just three days after Nightingale's daughter was born, Lin Yun had already relied on the complete data provided by the system to direct the research team and rapidly complete the manufacturing of the first-generation "Shenwei-1" Individual Exoskeleton System within the secret base.

This exoskeleton was constructed entirely from a high-strength composite alloy, with its surface covered in a nano-coating capable of stealth and energy absorption.

It was extremely lightweight, weighing only one-tenth of a conventional bulletproof vest, yet it could provide protection far exceeding that of heavy armor.

What was most astonishing was its built-in micro-nuclear fusion battery, which could provide the exoskeleton with up to a month of continuous combat energy, and it could realize multiple functions such as energy shields, kinetic amplification, and neural interface control.

Test data showed that soldiers wearing the "Shenwei-1" could achieve a tenfold increase in strength, jump heights exceeding ten meters, and running speeds reaching one hundred kilometers per hour!

More importantly, it could also connect directly to a soldier's brain via a neural interface, achieving control that moved "as the heart desires," with almost no latency.

"Comrade Lin Yun, this is simply... science fiction!" Old Chen took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner excitement. "We just casually found a retired special forces soldier to conduct the test, and he could easily lift a truck and even tear through steel plates with his bare hands!"

"With this thing, our Long Nation's army will completely become the most powerful force in the world!"

Little Zhang, standing to the side, was also flushed with excitement, his eyes shining with a fanatical light.

"Mr. Pangu, when can we mass-produce this? Eagle Sauce's fleet is still provoking us in the South China Sea, and we urgently need this kind of equipment that can deter the enemy!"

Lin Yun just gave a faint smile.

"Mass production is not a problem; the core components have already been localized, and the production line is currently being set up. However, before we showcase it to the outside world, we need to conduct a real-world combat test."

He looked at Old Chen, "And I already have a candidate for the executor of this combat test."

Just then, a cold and familiar voice rang out at the doorway.

"Reporting to Old Chen, Mr. Pangu! Nightingale of the Dragon Shield Special Operations Team, requesting to return to the team!"

Nightingale stood at the doorway with a straight posture; she had regained her pre-pregnancy competence, and her eyes were filled with determination and longing.

Although only a week had passed since childbirth, her body had fully recovered under the conditioning of Lin Yun's life energy and the special nutritional supplements provided by the system, and she was even stronger than before her pregnancy!

"Comrade Nightingale!" A gratified smile appeared on Old Chen's face. "Your body has recovered so quickly!"

Nightingale walked up to Lin Yun and Old Chen and gave them a standard military salute.

"Report: My body has fully recovered, and I feel better than ever before. I heard there is new equipment that needs testing, and I request a combat mission!"

Her gaze turned to Lin Yun, her eyes filled with anticipation.

She knew that everything Lin Yun brought was a miracle that transcended the era.

She also knew that as a soldier, her mission was to use these miracles to protect the Long Nation.

Lin Yun looked at Nightingale, a glimmer of appreciation flashing in his eyes.

Her choice did not disappoint him.

"Nightingale, you've come at the right time." Lin Yun picked up the design blueprints for the "Shenwei-1" Individual Exoskeleton System from the table and handed them to Nightingale.

"You will be the executor for the first combat test of this 'Shenwei-1' Individual Exoskeleton System."

"You will wear it to meet those uninvited guests."

Nightingale took the blueprints, a glimmer of excitement flashing in her eyes.

Just then, Old Chen's encrypted communicator rang again.

"Report, Old Chen! Our reconnaissance drone in the disputed waters of the South China Sea has captured an unidentified submarine formation! It is suspected to be special forces from Eagle Sauce and its allies, attempting to infiltrate our reefs!"

The communications soldier reported anxiously.

"They really did come!" Old Chen slammed the table, a chill flashing in his eyes.

Eagle Sauce couldn't help itself after all, adopting more covert and direct infiltration in its military operations.

Lin Yun and Nightingale exchanged a look, both of their eyes flashing with cold killing intent.

"Perfect." A bloodthirsty curve appeared at the corner of Nightingale's mouth. "Mr. Pangu, please allow me to personally meet these uninvited guests!"

Lin Yun nodded, "Little Zhang, prepare the 'Shenwei-1' Individual Exoskeleton System immediately! Nightingale, change into your gear!"

In less than ten minutes, a fully armed Nightingale was already standing in the depths of the secret base.

She was wearing a streamlined, black exoskeleton full of technological aesthetics.

At the joints of the exoskeleton, a faint blue energy light flickered; the entire suit was cast from high-strength composite alloy, and every detail was filled with a sense of power.

On the helmet's visor, various real-time data and tactical information were displayed.

Her body was perfectly integrated with the exoskeleton, as if human and machine were one, seamless and natural.

"Move out!" Old Chen ordered in a deep voice.

A high-speed reconnaissance drone took off rapidly, carrying Nightingale as it sped towards the South China Sea.

Disputed waters of the South China Sea.

Under the cover of night, the sea breeze howled.

A special forces unit composed of Eagle Sauce and its allies, totaling twelve people, was traveling in a micro-submarine, silently approaching one of the Long Nation's reefs.

They were all battle-hardened elite agents, each equipped with the most advanced diving gear and special weapons.

"Report, Captain, no anomalies detected at the target reef!" a diver reported via radio.

"Very good, infiltrate according to the plan!" the captain commanded in a deep voice. "Remember, our mission is secret reconnaissance. If you encounter a Long Nation patrol, retreat immediately!"

They thought their operation was secret and that no one could discover them.

However, just at the moment they were about to land on the reef.

A black figure, like a ghost, suddenly leapt out from the pitch-black seawater and landed lightly on the edge of the reef!

"Who?!"

The captain looked up sharply, and he saw a figure radiating a heart-palpitating pressure under the moonlight.

Nightingale, clad in the "Shenwei-1" Individual Exoskeleton System, stood at the edge of the reef like a god descending from heaven.

Beneath her visor, her gaze was cold and sharp.

"Uninvited guests, welcome to the Long Nation's waters!"

Her voice, amplified through the exoskeleton's sound system, echoed clearly in the ears of every agent, carrying a metallic coldness and killing intent!

"Fire!"

The captain instantly judged that the opponent meant harm, and he ordered without hesitation.

"Da-da-da—"

Gunfire instantly broke the tranquility of the sea, with twelve special submachine guns spewing tongues of fire simultaneously, and bullets pouring toward Nightingale like a torrential rain!

However, Nightingale just let out a cold snort.

She activated the exoskeleton's energy shield, and a faint layer of blue light instantly covered her entire body.

The bullets struck the shield, emitting crisp "ding-ding-dang-dang" sounds, but were all deflected, unable to leave even the slightest mark on the exoskeleton's surface!

"What... what the hell is this?!"

The agents widened their eyes in horror.

They had never seen such powerful defensive equipment!

Nightingale moved!

Her figure turned into an afterimage, instantly charging into the midst of the agents at a speed that exceeded human imagination!

"Bang!"

She threw a punch, and the exoskeleton's kinetic amplification system instantly erupted. One agent, along with his gun, was sent flying dozens of meters, smashing heavily onto the reef, his life or death uncertain!

"Snap!"

Nightingale delivered a side kick, striking another agent's submachine gun; the hard special alloy barrel was actually snapped in two by her kick!

She reached out and grabbed that agent, lifting him up like a chick, then slammed him violently toward another agent who was rushing up!

"Boom!"

The two agents collided instantly, the sound of bones breaking clearly audible.

In just a few dozen seconds, Nightingale, with one person and one suit of armor, was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, charging wildly among the twelve elite agents. Wherever she passed, people were sent flying, and wails echoed continuously!

Every one of her movements carried unmatched power and speed, precise and lethal.

The agents were in despair.

They were not facing a human at all!

It was a war machine clad in mecha, comparable to a god or demon!

"Report! Target strength assessment is S-class! Requesting immediate support from headquarters!" the captain cried out in despair.

However, his cry could no longer be transmitted.

Nightingale's figure, as if teleporting, appeared instantly in front of him.

She raised her fist, the mechanical joints of the exoskeleton emitting a "clack-clack" sound, as blue energy light gathered on her fist.

"Those who violate the Long Nation's waters shall die!"

She threw a punch!

The captain only had time to let out a scream before he was directly blasted into the reef by Nightingale's fist, his body embedded deeply, having lost all signs of life.

A moment later.

On the reef, all twelve elite agents lay on the ground.

Either dead or severely injured, none were spared!

Nightingale stood in the center of the reef, she took off her visor, revealing that cold and exhausted face, but her eyes were shining with the light of victory.

She felt the powerful strength brought by the exoskeleton system, and an unprecedented sense of pride welled up in her heart.

This was the power Lin Yun brought to the Long Nation!

This was the "birth gift" brought about by the birth of an S-class offspring!

In the command center of the secret base.

Old Chen and Little Zhang, along with all the technical personnel, witnessed the entire process of Nightingale single-handedly taking on twelve elite agents through the real-time footage sent back by the drone!

Everyone was stunned and dumbfounded!

They saw Nightingale, like a god descending from heaven, taking them out one punch at a time, beating those once arrogant Eagle Sauce agents until they had no power to fight back!

"Is... is this really our Long Nation's soldier?!" Little Zhang muttered to himself, his eyes filled with unbelievable fanaticism.

"This is the true... 'Shenwei' of our Long Nation!" Old Chen was so excited that tears streamed down his face, his fists clenched tightly.

He knew that from this moment on, the global military landscape would be completely overturned by the Long Nation!

He looked at Lin Yun, his eyes filled with infinite awe and gratitude.

Lin Yun just looked at the screen calmly, a playful curve appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He knew this was just the beginning.

Eagle Sauce, didn't you want to assemble your fleet and flex your muscles?

He wanted to see how you could still flaunt your power when every soldier in the Long Nation wore such "mecha"!

In Lin Yun's heart, he was filled with infinite anticipation for the future.

He believed that after the "Shenwei-1" Individual Exoskeleton System, the system would bring him even more "surprises" enough to make the world tremble!

And those surprises would all make their debut during Eagle Sauce's military provocations!
