Chapter 58: Prepare X Separation X Departure
Rows of stairs emerge around the cave, guiding robots to appear and lead the candidates into groups to the bottom of the desert. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The central hall, which is larger than a football field, is surrounded by a circular corridor, and on the side of the corridor are dense doors next to each other, which look like a giant beehive from top to bottom, and each door is a nest.
Jin walked next to Lin Lin and explained: "The space compression technology is used here, which is only suitable for short-term living. ”
They soon arrived at their room, their names were displayed on the door, and the five rooms were connected together, with Lin Lin's in the middle.
Sure enough, just like Kim said, from the outside, it looks like a door is densely connected, and once you push the door in, you will find that it is a room of about two meters by three meters, and there is only one bed, although it is small, it does not seem too crowded.
Garan and Lott went back to their rooms, but King and Keynes didn't leave immediately.
Keynes asked again: "Have you decided to continue with this exam, and if you change your mind, I have no objection, there has never been an exam that excludes as many people as it does today." ”
He pondered for a moment and continued, "Only those with abilities are selected, and I guess that this year's exam will be three times or more difficult than before.
Energy guns and mechs are forbidden in the regulations, so the probability that the enemy is human is the highest. This rule is only made when the danger is out of control after your own equipment has been taken.
In addition, we don't know how the groups are now, and the number of people is much smaller than in previous years, and the reduction in numbers may also make the exam more difficult. There is a high chance that I will not be able to support you at all during the exam, so I hope you will seriously consider whether or not to take this exam. ”
It was the first time Lin Lin had heard Keynes say such uncertain words, and although it was tactful, she felt that he was almost trying to persuade her to withdraw from the exam in disguise. She nodded, indicating that she would seriously consider it, and Keynes left alone.
Kim waited for Keynes to leave: "You've actually decided to take this exam." ”
"Well, my brother reminded me before, but I decided to participate. Even she herself wasn't 100 percent sure why she was doing this, but her instinct told her that she couldn't back down, if she wanted to live well in this world, if she didn't want to regret it, she couldn't back down.
Kim put something in her hand. It was two transparent and very inconspicuous-looking earrings, and then he told seriously: "This is just a positioning device that can avoid magnetic field interference, in case there is a situation where we can use the optical brain separately, I will go to you." This is only a miniature shield that can withstand 2 attacks equivalent to a Rank A energy cannon. Remember, anything can happen during the exam, and don't trust anyone but me and Keynes. ”
"Including Garan and Lot?"
"Yes, including them. Kim explained: "Garan itself is a big problem, as for that Lot, I don't know his purpose, if you meet him alone, try to keep your distance." He habitually touched Lin Lin's head: "I won't persuade you to quit, but you must at least be able to ensure your own safety, are your belongings organized?"
Lin Lin touched his multi-functional bracelet and spread the contents on the bed: "Although there is a classification, I don't know what to bring on my body better." ”
Jin explained to her in detail and seriously, and Lin Lin sorted it out one by one according to what he said.
There was no dream all night, and early the next morning, the mechanical prompt sound sounded on time, and Lin Lin walked on the sand again with them.
[I'm sure you've thought it through.] Ronald's hologram reappeared in front of everyone.
[Please make a choice within one minute.] 】
Everyone pressed the button almost at the same time.
[Very good, only 9 people chose to quit.] 】
The robot quickly took those people away.
[There are 27,355 candidates left, now raise your left hand and check your number.] 】
Lin Lin looked at his number, G-0002. She poked her head to see King's number, W-0013, and Keynes's, Z-0303.
[The number you see now represents your group, people with the same prefix belong to a group, randomly divided into a total of 24 groups from A to Z. 】
Lot's prefix is A, Garan is D, and none of the five of them are together.
[Candidates, immediately stand with the people in your group.] 】
Lin Lin realized that he might soon be separated from Jin and them, and although he was already mentally prepared, he still had a moment of panic.
【Hurry up!】
Ronald's urging voice made her subconsciously touch the earrings, and turned around to leave, but Kim grabbed her arm.
"Don't be nervous, be sure to stay safe!"
"You too. She was so nervous that she forgot to say goodbye.
Saying goodbye to them one by one, Lin Lin walked towards his G group.
As soon as the candidates stood up, there was movement in the sand on the right, and several slightly dilapidated starships rose from the ground, each marked with letters.
When you return, you will become the darlings of the stars. 】
Ronald's words did not relax at all, but made everyone's nerves tense even more.
Lin Lin couldn't help but glance back when he got on the starship, but he didn't see Jin them, but was pushed and stumbled by the people behind him.
"Get out of the way!"
The little dark on his shoulder purred viciously at the man, showing a mouthful of white teeth.
The man raised his fist in disdain: "Do you want me to crush you?"
Lin Lin glanced back at the man, it was a vicious-looking young man, she didn't say anything, let the man walk in front of her, and touched Xiao Di soothingly.
"Tsk. The man snorted boredly and walked on.
Lin Lin didn't take this insult to heart, her strength was only B-, which was also the minimum standard for taking the exam. In this situation, the first thing to learn is patience and self-preservation.
She now clearly knows that strength is everything in this world, and she believes that she will eventually go step by step in front of everyone!
When he walked into the starship, Lin Lin found that the inside was even more dilapidated than the outside, and it was not divided into one area after another like other starships, but it was too simple, the entire starship except for the cockpit, there was only one huge storage space, and the space was divided into layers after layers, and each layer was densely placed with warehouses like starnet warehouses, and each warehouse was marked with numbers.
"Please lie down in your sleep chamber for three minutes. A robot commanded, "The countdown begins." ”
This dormant warehouse is obviously very primitive, and it is not equipped with an intelligent sensing system, compared to its own star network warehouse, it is like an old antique picked out of the garbage heap.
It took Lin Lin a lot of effort to lift the tattered lid, and instead of lying down directly like the others, she touched the bracelet and threw a large backpack inside into it first.
Then I checked the protective clothing again. The close-fitting suit she wears underneath her coat is the latest product now, second only to the biomech, which can isolate most of the radiation and survive in space for at least 3 hours.
He stuffed a capsule oxygen concentrator into Xiao Dark's mouth and told it not to eat it.
Although it looks weak, it has a short-term resistance to the vacuum state of space, but it may suffocate.
After making sure that everything was ready, Lin Lin stuffed himself and Xiao Dian into the dormant chamber together. Lying in, I feel that the space inside is pitifully narrow, let alone comfortable. She struggled to close the lid in the last half minute. The moment the lid was closed, she even felt like she was in a coffin, and it couldn't have been worse.
[3,2,1] The countdown ended, and Lin Lin closed his eyes.
What she didn't know was that the several starships on standby didn't take off at the first time, but were stuck in place because of someone.
"Ronald, you're obstructing official business!" In the starship of the commander-in-chief, a middle-aged man pointed at Ronald's nose angrily and said, "The content of this exam is decided by the Federal Council!
"Not only orcs and mechanical lifeforms, but pets!
Although you have been invited to be one of the examiners for the exam, your actions are dereliction of duty!
Now I'm going to get you out of the picture!
"You're so grumpy. Even if he was scolded by the man, Ronald still looked like a demon, and he waited for the thunderous man to stop scolding before he spread his hands insincerely: "But you see, the students all know me, and I think they all recognize me as one of the responsible people now, how can you just sweep me out of the house like this?"
"Ronald!" The man was almost mad by the young man in front of him: "It's obvious that you are plotting against me!
"What did I do?" Ronald pretended to be stupid: "Ah, do you mean that you 'accidentally' petrified you for more than ten hours and 'had to' announce the exam rules on your behalf?" he made a look of guilt:
"I really want to apologize to you. Who made me accidentally drink a little too much yesterday, you see, you're fine, are you, and there are no after-effects, I can prove my innocence. ”
The man was even more furious, and he was frantic and wanted to issue the order directly, but was blocked by Ronald.
"Get out of here!"
"Unless you let me go with you. ”
"Do you think that you are the commander of Carmela and you can do whatever you want! Now, I am the person in charge!" the man said sternly: "Don't forget, I am a major general, the current commander-in-chief, and you are just a lieutenant colonel!"
"Of course, Major General. "Ronald is still the same indifferent look.
"Chief. A young man walked in through the door, and he said solemnly, "The time is up. ”
"Abel, you're here, help me get Ronald away!"
The young man named Abel glanced at Ronald and reminded the man: "Chief, the examination venue of the cadets is also in the Carmela system, and Lieutenant Colonel Ronald Carmella has the right to follow. ”
Ronald glanced at Abel with interest, reached out and grabbed the chief's collar, and straightened him up: "You heard me, we are all in agreement." ”
The two deputies actually climbed on his head in unison, and the chief was so angry that his face turned blue, and after a long while, seeing that he was about to exceed the scheduled time, he finally compromised.
In the next moment, a total of twenty-seven starships disappeared into the sand at the same time.
