"Recently!
An explosion occurred at the top-level laboratory of Orokin Technology.
According to Orokin Technology, the cause of the explosion was due to testing the tolerance strength of their latest product, Orokin Super Nano Fiber fabric.
Orokin Super Nano Fiber is a new type of special material developed based on human mechanics and existing protective materials.
It can evenly disperse the impact applied to the fiber, neutralizing the damage caused by the impact.
According to data provided by Orokin Technology, the fiber can withstand impact damage caused by C4 explosives.
Orokin Technology proposed to donate one thousand sets of protective equipment made from this fiber to the New York Police Department, enhancing the protective capabilities of New York Police.
It is reported that the Military is extremely interested in Orokin Super Nano Fiber and plans to equip the entire army."
New York City
News about the explosion at Orokin Technology was playing on a street-side monitor.
Mollyra walked listlessly; she had been investigating Orokin for a whole week and had found no problems.
A few days ago, Orokin shipped out a batch of discarded items.
According to the transporters, the top-level laboratory at Orokin was undergoing renovation, and these were scraps removed from there.
Mollyra purchased some metal fragments from those people, intending to have them examined by professionals.
Ethan, who was walking beside Mollyra and chattering incessantly, said:
"Mollyra, the matter in New York is over. The editor-in-chief already told us to rush back to Los Angeles three days ago.
We've already delayed for three days. If we delay any longer, the editor-in-chief will pull out his gun!"
Ethan's anxiety was understandable.
These past few days, he clearly felt the editor-in-chief was getting impatient with him. If this continued, he feared the editor-in-chief would come from Los Angeles to New York with a gun to hunt him down.
Seeing Ethan, who looked like he was about to cry from fear, Mollyra burst out laughing.
Feeling much better, Mollyra nodded readily, preparing to go back and say some good words about Ethan to her father.
These days,
if not for Ethan's care, she wouldn't have known how to do a reporter's job properly.
Although she was still unwilling to give up on the Orokin Technology explosion incident, there was no useful information to be found now, and it was not a solution to keep wasting time here.

Andy's Villa
In the gym
"Huff~ huff~"
Andy leaned on the fitness equipment, gasping for breath. He was truly exhausted.
In the past, he regularly worked out, having things like eight-pack abs and a V-line.
But he never expected the threshold for cultivating the Martial Form Secret Rite to be so high. In the Guard's Martial Form Secret Rite training, the minimum standard had already reached the professional level of American football.
Thinking of those professional athletes desperately striving for the Super Bowl, Andy shivered.
The professional athletes there were like Beasts, running with heavy and steady steps like heavy warframes. Every impact felt like it was going to break an opponent's bones.
Andy had watched his school's American football games during college.
Even those non-professional American football players had very intense matches, and people would occasionally leave due to injury.
Even so, many people on the American football team still couldn't join professional teams to play and become professional athletes.
One can imagine how abnormal the physical qualities of those professional American football players are, and the minimum requirement for the Martial Form Secret Rite is to be like them.
These days, Andy had been training frantically, just to reach the minimum standard of the Martial Form Secret Rite a little earlier.
But the improvement of physical quality can only be accumulated over time; there are no shortcuts.
Andy had also thought about using Human Enhancement Drug to improve himself, but after recalling the strength of the Guard race, he gave up.
One must know that Teshin among the Guards is called a false Tenno; his physical qualities are already close to a warframe.
What is even more shocking is that he can fight on par with a warframe in combat, and even defeat a Tenno.
This is Andy's goal. He wants to be like Teshin, able to exert powerful combat strength even without the special abilities of a warframe.
Now he hasn't even reached his physical limit.
If he rashly uses Human Enhancement Drug, his physical qualities would at most only reach the qualified standard of the Martial Form Secret Rite, leaving endless regrets in the future.
After resting for a while, Andy felt somewhat recovered, so he got up and went to the bench press rack to prepare for a bench press.
A 125kg barbell was slowly lifted by Andy.
One, two…
From his bulging veins on his arms, it was clear that each lift was a huge test for Andy.
After two sets of twenty presses, Andy was already drenched in sweat from exhaustion, and his arms, which had put down the barbell, were trembling non-stop.
At this point, Andy didn't even have the strength to stand up and just lay on the bench press rack, gasping for breath.
His hands hung limply on the ground, and his arms were engorged and swollen, like a piece of fresh red flesh pulled taut, looking as if they were about to explode.
Even before cultivating the Martial Form Secret Rite, Andy could no longer hold on.
Now he felt his lungs tearing with pain, and even his breathing seemed to carry a sweet, fresh scent of blood.
Just like this,
Andy spent a full half year training frantically, every day enduring high-intensity exercise that felt worse than death. His physical qualities gradually reached the level of a professional player.
The minimum standard of the Martial Form Secret Rite, Andy finally achieved it.
"Sir, testing shows you have reached the minimum standard for the Martial Form Secret Rite. Basic training is now being activated for you."
As soon as Audis finished speaking, a tall Guard was projected in the gym, meticulously performing a series of strange movements.
With each movement, Audis would describe it to Andy, who was watching the Guard, until the Guard in the image stopped moving.
Andy was completely awestruck. He never imagined that the entry level of the Martial Form Secret Rite would be so difficult.
Those strange movements were very similar to yoga he usually saw, even more difficult to perform than yoga.
The tall Guard in the image had a body like a piece of dough that could be kneaded at will, incredibly soft all over.
He could even concentrate all his body's strength into one point through this basic training.
And throughout the entire training process, this Guard remained expressionless and his heart was as still as Water, as if these movements had become instinct.
The Guard in the image made Andy understand why Teshin could be called a false Tenno.
This not only indicates Teshin's powerful combat strength but also explains why Teshin could reach warframe-level physical prowess.
As a survivor of the Tenno's Carnage of the Orokin Empire, Teshin must have fought against those warframes. To survive at the hands of a warframe, this basic training of the Martial Form Secret Rite definitely played a significant role.
Perhaps Teshin even relied on this basic training, concentrating all his strength into the Saruim in his hand to fight desperately against the warframes, barely surviving until the warframes retreated.
Putting aside his thoughts, Andy learned step by step, following the Guard's decomposed movements and special breathing method in the image. Every movement of the Guard made Andy scream in pain.
Even Tina, who later joined and had a background in yoga, couldn't perform the Guard's movements and could only accompany the groaning Andy, repeating them over and over again.
The pain gradually lessened as Andy continuously practiced, and his body also became increasingly flexible.
Andy's body gradually returned to its pre-training state, but his physical qualities had improved further.
Gradually, let alone Andy, even Tina could effortlessly perform any movement.
What Andy found regrettable, however, was that Tina's physical qualities had not met the standard of the Martial Form Secret Rite.
No matter how much she practiced, it only made her figure better, with almost no improvement in physical qualities, and she couldn't concentrate all her strength into one point.
However, Andy thought about it carefully, and perhaps this was better for Tina.
