Across Tokyo as Hokage

Chapter 278 The Unexpected 'Test Object'

The bus is moving fast!
But the direction is a bit strange, it is driving towards the southeast, not to the central area, which means that the test points are not in those places.

At this time, everyone who should go to work has already left, so the speed of the car is not slow, and it is finally not blocked on the road.

In fact, it is possible to avoid traffic jams because the island countries have different concepts of cars.

Because the island country only regards the car as a means of transportation, not a status symbol, and if the members of the commune are provided with transportation subsidies if they take the subway, a large number of people will not buy vehicles. Already, there were three small traffic jams a day, and a big traffic jam in three days.

quickly!

The car came to Edogawa District, which is the easternmost district among the 23 districts of Kyoto, bordering Chiba County where countless anime protagonists are located.

After arriving here, the traffic flow has been greatly reduced, and the street environment has also changed a lot, as if from an international metropolis to an ordinary small city in an instant.

This is also a place where a large number of renters live, and only in this marginal area can people who come to Kyoto to work hard afford to rent a house, but the price is still too expensive.

The bus kept turning left and right, and soon came to a huge base.

Because of the special license plate, they didn't even open the door for people to check, and just lifted the barrier to let the bus pass.

However, Uesugi was keenly aware that there was a sense of surveillance coming from a corner above the passenger, and he understood why the other party did not need to check, it was entirely because when their team got on the bus, everything was under the control of the other party. How to check.

Glancing at the monitor, this is what Jianhao intuited. Naturally, he doesn't need to hide it, or it's strange to hide it.

In a certain room of the base, a large number of screens occupy most of the room. There are people sitting in front of each computer. Right in front of it is a wall-sized display screen, which is cut into 28 pictures. The protagonists on it are all branches Gym team.

This is the command room of the base!
"Boss, most of the sword lords are indeed aware of the surveillance, and the expressions of the others have also fluctuated. They should have noticed it, but they didn't show it!" A man in a white trigram looked at the data in front of him, and then gave a report .

"Sure enough, monitoring the swordsman still doesn't work. I really hate such unscientific things like intuition, but in this era, there is more than one unscientific thing!" The man sitting on the command seat muttered to himself.

Long before the Extraordinary Era, Jianhao could detect surveillance, and the stronger his strength, the stronger his ability to detect.

This kind of open monitoring can't be successful as long as the other party has the heart, and now it's just more sensitive, or they have arranged several layers of monitoring, just to use Jianhao as a detection tool.

Uesugi in the bus naturally didn't know that his obligatory passenger fled a surveillance tool, and he was getting off the bus after Masato Tiandao.

The area of ​​this building is not small, and all kinds of facilities are extremely complete. A large number of sharp-pointed equipment are placed, full of a sense of technology.

The point is that this place is located in Kyoto!
Even if it is the outermost area of ​​the 23rd district, the fact that there is such a large area with such a terrible housing price also shows the importance of this place to a certain extent.

"Why haven't I heard of this place before?" A brother looked around curiously, with a curious sigh.

"This should be an official research base. Don't talk nonsense later, do you understand?" Longzhong's tone was unusually serious last time. This is not his own dojo, and talking nonsense may indeed cause accidents.

"Yes, teach!", all the younger generations answered at the same time.

Snapped!
Two soldiers in uniform came over and saluted, and then made a gesture of invitation, obviously asking them to follow each other forward, and everyone immediately followed.

After a few minutes.

Whoa!

Walking in front of a huge unremarkable building, the huge and heavy iron gate slid towards the side. Two soldiers stood by the gate and did not intend to lead the way in. A group of people continued to move forward under the lead of Masato Tiandao.

After entering the building, a feeling of a weapons testing ground blows over us.

Because the layout here is like the kind of weapon testing ground that is often seen in film and television dramas.

White is the base tone, a glass-enclosed circular walkway, below is a huge circular area like a Colosseum, and there are two closed passages.

What makes one's scalp tingle is that at the height of the metal wall in the circular area, that is, at the level with the ground of the glass walkway, there is a circle of muzzles aimed at the area below. Just by looking at the caliber, you can tell that these are not small powerful weapons.

Seeing this, people can understand that today's test is not that simple, otherwise any dojo can complete the test, why come to such a place.

"so many people"

This thought flashed in Uesugi's mind, and he kept looking at the people in the circular aisle.

There are a lot of people standing here, although it looks a bit sparse compared to the circular passage, but that is only because of the large space that gives people this feeling, in fact, there are really many people.

The teams of 28 gymnasiums, as well as a large number of scientific researchers wearing white trigrams and holding tablet computers, add up to more than a few hundred, which is indeed a lot.

There were very few voices, and the teams who came to participate in the test felt that something was wrong, so naturally they didn't have the mood to speak.

Masato Tiandao looked around and led them to find an area to stand. Anyway, they have already arrived, so let's see what the officials want to sell.

No one will worry about danger!

If only one gym comes, the official still has a chance to do something, but today there are 28 gyms, not to mention there are more insiders. Because of this confidence, everyone is willing to participate in this mysterious test.

Ten minutes later!

[The test begins, throw in ten test objects and Team No. 1! ], a mechanical sound resounded throughout the circular corridor.

"Test object?" Uesugi felt that this word was a bit wrong. If they were fighting each other, it should be called two teams entering the arena. Why is one party called a test object? Could it be that the official technology can already test the level of swordsmanship?

Others also looked puzzled, only Masato Tiandao's expression was extremely serious, and Longzhong sighed slightly last time, with a little unbearable expression on his face.

In the area below, first a passage opened, and the frighteningly thick metal gate slowly lifted upwards under mechanical action, revealing a team behind.

There are 13 people in total, an older instructor and [-] team members, a standard combat team.

Everyone was wearing black tights, a fully enclosed helmet, and a black vest over their coats, which did not affect their mobility and provided good protection. Each of them carried a long knife and several daggers on their bodies.

Just by looking at the equipment, you can tell that the next step is to test your swordsmanship.

After the team exited the passage, they immediately formed a defensive formation and stood guard in the corner, as if they were guarding against some dangerous creatures, and the passage behind them was slowly closed.

Kaka!

Another passage opened to reveal the 'test object' inside.

The scarlet eyes of these hound-sized test objects are filled with terrifying aggression. They have no fur, only muscles and a blood-red ferocious body, and a tail that is wrapped in white bones and becomes slender and sharp when it reaches the tip of the tail.

"Why is this?"

"How dare the officials use this thing to test!"

"This is too much!"

All the teams couldn't help making noises. It wasn't that they made a fuss, but that the 'test object' was bigger than expected.
