Chapter 1259 Challenge The Limit

Compared to Big Whale’s excitement, Li Jinnian seemed much calmer. Although his expression was still faint, from the way he looked at the parameter values, it was obvious that he was not as calm as his expression.

Hypoxia can cause headaches, general fatigue, difficulty in walking, palpitation, shortness of breath, chest tightness, pulmonary edema, and even loss of life in severe cases. Whether it is high altitude or underwater, hypoxia has been a difficult problem for humans since ancient times.

The “frogmen” mostly perform tasks underwater. In the trials, the soldier’s tolerance to hypoxia played an important key factor in deciding whether they could stay or not.

Li Jinnian stared at the rising values. He took a glance at the time. The dark light in his cold eyes gradually became colder, and finally, it merged into a bright light like a winter night, as if his gaze was enough to light up the entire cold night.

“Almost there, almost there, almost there,” Big Whale didn’t notice his changes. He just kept staring at the display screen closely, looking so nervous as if he was the one conducting the selection test.

At the set time, the first “beep” prompt sounded. Big Whale was so excited that he was about to jump out of the chair. Li Jinnian, who was still standing behind him, raised his hand and held his shoulder.

  

“Five minutes, Devil King! She did it! The value hasn’t become red yet!” Big Whale exclaimed as if he had found a treasure, his eyes were shining as if the light was about to burst out, “She had surpassed the soldiers we accepted!”

Very good, five minutes have passed!

Just as Big Whale said, she indeed had surpassed the other 24 soldiers!

“The values are starting to rise, remove the instrument.” Li Jinnian’s expression did not change at all, except that when he supported the table with one hand, one could feel that his slender fingers had tightened slightly. “After the high CO2 reaction test, give me the result. Keep an eye on the screen, if the values soar, immediately turn off the instrument.”

 

Seeing how their captain, who was younger than him, had remained calm, Big Whale cleared his throat, realizing that he was a little too excited, he spoke softly, “It’s rare to encounter a person who can endure hypoxia for five minutes straight. I will definitely be careful!”

As the instrument on her arm was removed, Ye Jian suddenly felt that the upper limbs were liberated, and the blood that was “blocked” in her arms started to flow again. She felt a kind of heavy feeling as if both her shoulders were pressed by several mountains, and upper and lower limbs were separated. All those feelings disappeared in an instant.

Taking off the mask, Ye Jian, whose face was crimson, didn’t immediately open her mouth to breathe, her delicate lips pursed slightly, she breathed slowly, rhythmically, letting her whole body relax slowly.

Five minutes of hypoxia was like walking through a ghost gate. The sweat on her back was still dripping, and the sweat on her forehead had gathered into a trickle, dripping down her chin to her clothes.

Big Shark, who had been guarding her secretly, took a deep breath before breaking the silence in the room, “Excellent result, five minutes and twenty-four seconds.” Although his voice was calm, he was obviously a little excited with the results.

    

Five minutes! A qualified frogman had endured hypoxia for five minutes. Can he not get excited?

But soon, he realized something, and he became even more excited… She had belonged in the army!

Ye Jian had been secretly counting the time as well, and when she heard her results, she smiled and said, “My arm was tied to the instrument. Otherwise, I can achieve six minutes. Six minutes is my limit.”

When she was training at the beach with Principal Chen, she could only hold her breath for two minutes at first. Later, when she went to the highlands for training, Uncle Chen asked her to wear a mask and do morning exercises. She had to run down to the highland lakes with a cover. She was even asked to wear it when she was sleeping. Only by doing this she could achieve her current excellent result.
