After seeing Chen Zhiyi’s signal, the technician raised the level to eight.
At this point, it was obvious that Yu Siying’s expression became pained, reaching an unbearable level.
In contrast, Sui Qiang’s state was slightly better, but he was also enduring with great effort.
"Siying’s situation is about enough; she should be able to push to level nine with a bit more endurance, though it might be dangerous," Ning Che said:
"Sui Qiang is doing quite well; reaching level nine shouldn’t be a problem for him."
Lin Yi nodded in agreement, sharing Ning Che’s thoughts.
"That’s about it; Machine Two, stop," Chen Zhiyi said.
The work indicator light on Machine Two extinguished, and Yu Siying’s expression quickly relaxed.
Machine One, where Sui Qiang was, continued, and according to Chen Zhiyi’s signal, the level was raised again.
When it reached level nine, the newcomers present all gasped in shock.
This was a level that only a group leader could reach!
And yet a regular member of Group One had done it!
No wonder they could become the Merit Group; these people are really extraordinary.
"Stop Machine One now."
Seeing that Sui Qiang had also reached his limit, Chen Zhiyi ordered the machine to be stopped.
The ninth level amazed many newcomers.
Even Ning Che and Qiu Yuluo cast admiring glances.
From level five onward, each increase in level exponentially stimulates muscle cells.
Their achievements were already quite impressive.
Lin Yi, however, thought that such results were reasonable.
Aside from himself, Sui Qiang had the best physical fitness; reaching level nine was expected.
On the other hand, Yu Siying achieving level eight was quite comforting for Lin Yi.
As a woman, she wasn’t particularly strong in terms of power, so reaching this level was already very commendable.
"Boss, was this level decent? I didn’t embarrass you, did I?" Sui Qiang laughingly asked.
"Very impressive."
Then, Lin Yi looked at the other members of Group One, "You guys continue."
"Let’s go, Luo Qi, let’s give it a try."
Xiao Bing pulled Luo Qi, ready to experience it.
"Hold on, you two."
Just as the two were about to go over, Yu Siying stopped them, leading Sui Qiang aside, and looked at him to say:
"Did you take everything off when you went in?"
"Yes." Sui Qiang nodded.
Yu Siying looked at Xiao Bing and Luo Qi, "When you two go in, remember to take everything off too."
The two of them paused, understanding what Yu Siying was referring to.
She was referring to the bracelets and rings they were wearing.
"Got it."
The two nodded and then walked toward the machine.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi walked over, "What happened?"
"Look at this."
Yu Siying removed the ring from her finger, and Lin Yi noticed a dark mark, as if it had been burned.
"How did this happen?"
"Before the experiment, they told me to take off my clothes, and Director Chen reminded me to take off my bracelet, but I forgot about the ring," Yu Siying explained:
"When the level reached five, I already felt a burning sensation on my finger, and by level eight, it was unbearable."
Lin Yi frowned slightly, thought for a few seconds, and understood the reason.
Both the ring and the bracelet were items from the island.
And the core of these two machines also came from ore from the island.
There must have been some reaction between the two, causing this effect.
Lin Yi grabbed Yu Siying’s hand and examined the burn mark.
"It’s not a big problem; apply some ointment, and it should recover in a month."
"It’s a small issue; it doesn’t hurt."
