Chapter 33: The Secret Training Examination (1)

A month later, the secret training was finally coming to an end, and there was only one big test in front of the secret training.

At this time, the crowd was a little nervous, and at the same time, there was a faint excitement and expectation. Zhang Yifan's trio also gathered together to wait for the chief deacon to announce the task of the big exam.

"Do you say that this big test really entered the depths of the Whistling Forest?" Chen Dingju couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know, maybe, I made some preparations. What about you?" asked Roger with a smile, clearly confident.

"I didn't do anything to prepare, let's see, I hope we're together. Zhang Yifan said indifferently.

"Everyone, pay attention, line up and draw lots, two people in a team, a total of seventy-six, one team of number one and number seventy-six, one team of number two and number seventy-five, and so on. The chief deacon said to the crowd.

Obviously, after three months of secret training, dozens of people have been eliminated, no wonder there are many faces missing, and the remaining seventy-six people don't know how many people can stay, the three sighed, and stepped forward to line up to draw lots.

Soon the lottery was completed, and the chief deacon asked everyone to find their own team first, and the content of the big exam was announced later.

"Brother Luo, Brother Zhang, I'm the thirty-one, what about you. Chen Juding asked impatiently, obviously wanting to form a team with his two good friends.

"I'm number twenty-four. Roger was a little disappointed, and then looked at Zhang Yifan expectantly.

"Hehe, I'm on the forty-fifth, it seems that I'm going to be on a team with Brother Chen, please take care of it. Zhang Yifan was a little happy and teased.

"It's so good luck to be able to team up with Brother Zhang!" Chen Juding looked a little excited, after all, Zhang Yifan's strength is there, and the chance of completing the task is relatively high if you team up together, although the assessment is based on personal performance, there are still a lot of bonuses to completing the task.

Roger's gloomy look flashed, and then he congratulated the two of them and went to find his teammates.

A moment passed quickly, and the chief deacon soon appeared, bringing someone with him.

"This big test is presided over by Lord Lu Tianqi, who is the seventh-level secret arrester of the Huzhou Secret Investigation Division, and the Tiangang Iron Catch. The following is explained by Master Lu to the relevant content of the big exam. ”

Lu Tianqi is over half a hundred years old, but he is tall and mighty, with a fierce face, and ordinary people are generally afraid of abnormalities when they see it. He swept around and found that most people didn't dare to look at him, only a few people didn't seem to be afraid, Zhang Yifan was one of them, which made his eyes shine, and it was estimated that there would be a few good seedlings this time.

"The content of this big test is as follows, each team will be issued a paper A, enter the Huzhou Secret Investigation Division's stronghold within a radius of twenty miles, look for clues, and find volume B according to the clues. There are only twenty copies of Volume B, and those who complete the final task according to the clues of Volume B go directly to the secret group. In addition, you need to find the second volume within two hours, and the squads that don't find it will be eliminated directly. The whole assessment time is eight hours, and after a stick of incense, the task begins, and now you are allowed to ask some questions. Lu Tianqi briefly said the content and rules of the assessment.

The crowd below suddenly became in a commotion, there are only twenty copies of the B volume, which means that there will be eighteen squads that will be eliminated directly, not to mention the task of the follow-up B volume, there is no need to think that the difficulty will be greater, this year's secret training exam is undoubtedly much more cruel than the previous ones, and many people's faces are more ugly.

"Master Lu, there are only twenty copies of the second volume, can the team that doesn't have it compete for the existing team?" asked a catcher cautiously, which was what most of the catchers wanted to ask.

"Once the assessment begins, there are no rules, except that it can't hurt people's lives, and the rest depends on personal choice. ”

"Lord Lu, are all the tasks in Volume B the same?"

"Each of the tasks in Volume B is different, the difficulty is also different, and of course, the rewards after completion are also different, so luck and strength are indispensable. ”

"Lord Lu, can you give up the task of volume B and find another volume B to complete the task?"

"No restrictions, it's up to you. ”

......

Under the questioning of various questions from the secret training and fast arresters, the time for the assessment soon came, and everyone dispersed with an order, and began to look for the second volume according to the clues provided by the first volume.

"Master Lu, this year's secret training exam seems to be a lot more cruel, and some of the first-volume tasks still need to go deep into the Whistling Forest for thirty miles, isn't this too dangerous. Deacon Mikao couldn't help but ask after everyone dispersed.

"In the past few years, the level of secret arrest recruited has been too poor, and in the case of illegal salt in Guanghu and Lingerzhou, we have folded dozens of secret arrests and secret arrests, so that the Holy Arrest Lord was furious and sent the Golden Knife Catcher to deal with this matter in person. Lord Wang was also very dissatisfied with this matter, and sent me to preside over this secret training examination, hoping to clear the source and find good talents. So I have to do this to select the real elite catchers, and those general eliminations will be eliminated. As for the danger, how can there be no danger when you catch quickly, of course, I have sent secret traps to investigate those depths, and there is no great danger. ”

After listening to Lu Tianqi's explanation, the secret test deacon nodded and stopped talking.

At this time, Zhang Yifan and Chen Juding came to a dense forest in the northwest corner about five or six miles away from the stronghold according to the prompts of the first volume.

"Brother Yifan, according to the tip of the first volume, there is a second volume hidden in the treetops here, and there are almost no thousand trees in this dense forest, and the branches are luxuriant, so you can't see what is on the treetops at all, so you can only go up to the tree to check. How to find this, you can't climb up one by one to find it, even if you have physical support, two hours is not enough, right?" Chen Juding said with some frustration after watching the scene.

"Brother Ding, don't worry, it's definitely unrealistic to find trees one by one, and this is definitely not what the secret training adults want to see. What is the main training of secret training?" Zhang Yifan said to Chen Juding with a smile, obviously knowing roughly what the first paper was assessing.

"Are you the ability to investigate and gather intelligence?" Chen Juding was obviously not a stupid person, and he also reacted.

"Well, that's pretty much it. Zhang Yifan nodded.

"Then let's observe the environment here, a stick of incense is still converging here. Chen Juding suggested.

Zhang Yifan nodded in agreement, and then the two entered the dense forest to look for clues from different directions. Originally, with Zhang Yifan's current sensing ability, he should be able to find the second volume relatively easily, but he didn't want to do this, he wanted to have a fair competition with other elites.

Entering the dense forest, Zhang Yifan found some very shallow footprints on the ground, which could be distinguished by careful look. There hasn't been a secret training capture here yet, so it should be that the person who put the second scroll before came here to stay.

Following the footsteps, he soon came to a large tree, where the footprints disappeared, and there were some traces of climbing on the tree. "It won't be so easy to find, right?" Zhang Yifan was a little unconvinced, he used his flying skills, quickly jumped up, and climbed the treetops, only to find that there were two small characters written next to a broken horizontal branch in the treetops - "Shake Light", the words are very small and hidden under the broken horizontal branches, and they can't be found at all if you don't look carefully.

"Shake the light?" Because Zhang Yifan specially trained the knowledge and discrimination of the stars during their secret training, they knew that the shaking light was the first star position in the tail of the Big Dipper.

Zhang Yifan probably had some conjectures in his heart, and then jumped off the treetop and made a mark on the tree.

Then Zhang Yifan began to look for new footprints, and after careful searching, he found new footprints. Along the new footprints, he successively found the "Kaiyang", "Yuheng", "Tianquan" and other trees, at this time almost after a stick of incense time, he decided to go to the convergence to find Chen Juding and then look for the remaining star identification tree, I think there should be three more.

After coming to the agreed place, Zhang Yifan saw that Chen Juding was already here, and his expression seemed to be a little joyful.

"Brother Yifan, I seem to have found some clues, what about you?" Chen Juding couldn't wait to say to Zhang Yifan.

"I also found some clues, you can say it first, let's look at each other to see if the clues are consistent. Zhang Yifan said with a smile.

"I found some footprints, and found two trees in the process of walking with the footprints, and the treetops were written with "Tianshu" and "Tianxuan", you said that this prompt is not the Big Dipper, as long as we find the "shaking light" star position, you can get the B volume. Chen Juding said with some excitement, obviously satisfied with his discovery.

"Hehe, my discovery is similar to that of Brother Ding, but I found "Shaking Light", "Kaiyang", "Yuheng", and "Tianquan", and I didn't find Volume B. Zhang Yifan said with a wry smile.

"Ah, so, empty rejoice. Isn't there another "Dimensity", let's find it out. Chen Juding was a little disappointed, and then remembered that there was still one place that had not been checked, and he couldn't help but hope again.

"Well, I've left a mark, and it shouldn't be hard to find. Let's find out. Zhang Yifan nodded in response.

Soon the two of them found the big tree engraved with the word "Tianji", but the treetop was also empty, and there was no trace of the B scroll. The two looked at each other, and reluctantly searched around again, but found nothing, and no new footprints appeared, and an hour had passed.

"Brother Yifan, how is this good? It seems that an hour has passed, and we are running out of time. Chen Juding was a little anxious.

"Brother Ding, calm down, since we have found out the location of the Big Dipper, we might as well think about the clues from this aspect. Zhang Yifan persuaded.

"Big Dipper, do you think there will be a purple microstar?" Chen Juding suddenly said this.

"Ziwei Star? It's really possible, knowing the position of the Big Dipper and distinguishing the Ziwei star position, the distance between Tianxuan and Tianshu is five times the distance of the line is the Ziwei star position. Zhang Yifan is recorded in the Astrological Scripture.

Then the two of them followed the markers to find the big tree marked with Tianxuan and Tianshu, and then measured the distance, and finally found the tree on the crape myrtle star according to the direction and distance, the tree is not big and inconspicuous, without the guidance of the stars, the chance of finding it is very small.

In a very hidden treetop on that tree, Zhang Yifan and they found the second volume, which is equivalent to completing the task of the first stage of the big exam!

Unbeknownst to them, the secret capture observing in the shadows had transmitted the details of the process of the two of them completing the task to Lu Tianqi, the secret training stronghold, through the letter bird.
