037 Sharp Contrast
After sending Raymond to the open-air base, Weaver led the staff of the combat institute to the central control tower of the base.
Here, you can watch the entire competition in detail through monitoring equipment.
But when Weaver arrived, her two old friends had already arrived here first.
The first one is Claude, the director of the Spy War Institute who had called her to gossip about this before, a middle-aged white man who looked about fifties.
He was wearing a straight gray suit, with classical gold-style glasses on his nose, and a peach wood cane on his hand, looking like a middle-aged gentleman walking down from the cover of a fashion magazine.
Along with Claude, an Asian man who looks a little weak and wears a pair of square black-framed glasses. Perhaps because of his good maintenance, he cannot tell the specific age.
His name is Vincent, and he is the president of the Communications Agency.
At this point, except for Leonid, the president of the Operations Institute, who personally went to the competition, all the other three were here.
Claude's eyes were sharp, and he immediately noticed Weaver and greeted him enthusiastically, "Agent Weaver, why are you here now? We have been waiting for you for a long time..."
"Have you been waiting for my information for a long time?" Weaver rolled his eyes in anger.
"Oh noon, Agent Weaver." Vinson greeted him very gentlemanly.
The two of them dressed clearly, Claude, more like gentlemen, but their behavior was exactly the opposite.
"I thought only Claude would be so gossipy, but I didn't expect that Agent Vincent would come too." Weaver's attitude towards Vincent was obviously much more polite than to Claude.
However, being polite is often inversely proportional to familiarity. Obviously, Weaver and Cloud have a better relationship, so Cloud is so careless.
Vinson smiled slightly and said, "If it were only Agent Leon's affairs, I wouldn't be very interested, but I must not ignore Dr. Raymond's affairs. Agent Weaver, you should also know that I actually thought about recruiting Dr. Raymond to our Communications Institute a long time ago, but I didn't expect..."
Weaver nodded, expressing his understanding.
Perhaps it is because Raymond is half Chinese. When he was a visiting professor at the college, he had a good relationship with Dean Vincent, who is also a Chinese.
If Raymond chooses according to relationships, he should definitely go to the Communications Institute.
"Agent Weaver, it's time for you to keep it a secret? Why did Leonid and Dr. Raymond agree to this competition? Just reveal it." Claude asked.
Weaver hesitated for a moment when he heard this, probably thinking that there was no need to keep it confidential at this point. Anyway, they would know it soon, so he briefly summarized the matter.
"What? Comprehensive combat class?!"
Claude, who understood what happened, was also stunned and sighed, "No wonder that guy Leonid had such a big reaction. If it were me, I would probably jump too..."
Vinson's focus was not very different, but he saw him frowning slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Agent Weaver, are you saying that Principal Dugan had agreed to this before?"
"No," Weaver nodded.
"Is that true..." Vinson thought, "It seems that Agent Leon is going to suffer this time."
“???”
Claude looked at Vincent inexplicably and touched his forehead, "Agent Vincent, are you okay? Are you confused with fever? It's not hot..."
"Stop talking nonsense, we're going to start-"
However, Weaver suddenly noticed that two storyboards had appeared on the center screen of the central control tower, namely "Raymond" and Leonid who had changed into training combat uniforms.
The horn of the open-air base also rang and the countdown began:
"Ten, nine, eight...two, one, start!"
The moment when the "start" command was heard from the speaker, Leonid in the storyboard suddenly moved!
When he started to act, he rushed straight to its weapon room like a cheetah!
It took him only six or seven seconds to rush in at about fifty meters. At the same time, the storyboard that belonged to him had also switched to a picture and turned into the indoor shooting of his weapon room.
There is a countdown on the screen, and the two of them must enter the weapon room from the starting point within two minutes, and after completing the identification and assembly of the firearms within this time limit, they will leave the weapon room.
If you haven't left for more than two minutes, the door of the weapon room will be locked, which will directly determine that the game will fail!
This is also why Leonid runs so fast.
However, in sharp contrast to this, there is the "Raymond" who is slowly walking towards his weapon room in another storyboard, without any awareness of being in a hurry.
It took him at least half a minute to walk, just fifty meters away, just like a walk.
Seeing Leonid on the left side of the storyboard quickly flipping through a bunch of parts in the weapon room and picking out a few, it was obvious that he had found a clue, while the "Raymond" on the right had just walked into the weapon room, Claude couldn't help but be surprised:
"Dr. Raymond is giving up on himself?"
Not only him, but even Vincent, who had just finished talking about Leonid's possible loss this time, couldn't help but wonder if something had happened to his previous judgment.
Weaver was similar, with a slightly puzzled expression and didn't know what he was thinking.
When the countdown time had passed, Leonid in the left-hand storyboard seemed to have finished selecting it and began to quickly assemble the parts he had selected.
On the other hand, "Raymond" on the right still maintained his rhythm, calmly selecting from a bunch of parts, looking like he was shopping in a supermarket, without any haste.
When the time came to one minute and twenty seconds, Leonid had been assembled!
What he assembled was a reconnaissance rifle. Many people who watched the competition through the storyboard recognized the gun-
[Steyr.Scout.Sniper.Rifle], the scientific name Bird Sniper, a portable version of the sniper rifle.
Although its power and range are far less powerful than sniper rifles, it is much lighter and is a perfect choice for use in a fixed-point defensive scenario with few enemies.
Claude and Vinson were both high-sequence agents of S.H.E.L.D., so they naturally recognized them at first sight.
Even Weaver, a non-field agent, recognized the gun.
"You can actually find the most suitable gun in such a short time, Leonid, that guy..." Weaver, who recognized the gun, couldn't help but worry about Raymond.
"Dr. Raymond seems to have picked up the parts and started assembling them," Claude reminded.
With his reminder, Weaver then moved his gaze to the right-
"Desert Eagle?"
