Dawn of a New Era

Next, everyone followed the eight invigilators into the cave.

These eight invigilators are obviously warriors, and they have a sense of coordination in their bodies when they walk.

It is estimated that even if the warriors in the entire Dongning City add up, there are only so many.

But in Ningzhou, so many people were mobilized for just one invigilation.

Because of high-quality education, infrastructure, and medical care in big cities, they often form a siphon effect on talents in the surrounding areas. Warriors who are rare in Dongning can be found everywhere in Ningzhou, but there are hundreds of times more than Dongning, and even Hundreds of times.

...

The cave is very large, roughly estimated that it covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters, like a huge square.

There are four infantry armored vehicles and a medium tank on each side, cross-parked on both sides, and there are five soldiers on duty near each armored vehicle or tank, obviously to prepare for emergencies.

There seemed to be a faint smell of gunpowder in the air.

When the crowd came here, their voices subconsciously quieted down, and the atmosphere became a little depressing.

For people who live in peace, they have never seen such a scene.

The dense cannon barrel made people worry that it would suddenly release a terrifying attack and tear the crowd apart.

Chen Shouyi looked away, and then noticed a huge iron gate in front of the square, with four heavily armed soldiers standing straight on both sides.

The channel is estimated to be inside.

One of the invigilators stepped forward and handed over a pass and a document.

The soldier read and turned a few pages, saluted, and then pressed the button next to it. With the sound of a motor turning, the iron door slowly opened, revealing a passage.

The passageway is six to seven meters wide and high enough to allow tanks to enter and exit. The entire passageway is paved with thick steel and exudes a dark metallic luster.

The defenses inside were heavily guarded. Walking here, Chen Shouyi felt a little terrified.

Often every few meters, he can see a camera and a machine gun nozzle, and at the same time, there are small holes densely covered on the top of his head.

He guessed that it was probably used for spraying poison gas.

There is more than one iron gate inside!

A group of people passed through three iron gates in a row. The first two iron gates were still incandescent lamps, but by the last one, they had been replaced with gasoline lamps, and the power system had also been replaced with steam mechanical transmission.

At the same time, Chen Shouyi also felt a power sprouting deep in his body, and his natural ability was recovering.

The passage is at hand!

...

Before entering, let me say something. This time there are a lot of people, and our invigilator can't take care of them. For safety reasons, we went in in batches. The first batch is 200. Everyone will receive a bow when the time comes. A cold weapon. The leading invigilator said loudly: Now start to line up in eight rows, if anyone disturbs the order, this exam will be cancelled.

The crowd was in a commotion and hurriedly lined up.

Under the sharp eyes of the eight warriors, no one dared to jump in line.

Chen Shouyi roughly counted the number of people ahead, and found that when it was his turn, it would be the second round.

Okay! The first twenty-five people in each row will come with us and come to collect their weapons.

The invigilators opened a locked iron door on the side of the passage, and the crowd behind filed in.

When everyone came out again, everyone had already taken up their weapons.

It's not a wooden sword or a wooden knife, but a real sword, and the arrows are not training arrows, but metal arrows.

What is this for?

Chen Shouyi had a vague feeling that since the invasion of other world forces, the Great Xia Kingdom seemed to be making some kind of preparations.

This sudden change in the assessment method of martial arts apprentices is probably just the tip of the iceberg.

The soldiers standing guard in front pulled down a huge opening valve together,

Accompanied by the clinking sound of the gears, the last iron door was slowly opened, and a dim light could be seen indistinctly.

...

As soon as the invigilators left, the crowd immediately started talking and commotion.

This is a different world. I've never been there before. I heard it has triple gravity.

Isn't it telling us to kill the barbarians?

You think too much, with our strength, we can only be killed by barbarians!

Actually, there should be no danger. If someone dies, it will be a big deal. Those invigilators should also bear the responsibility.

...

Aren't you nervous? A young man in his twenties next to Chen Shouyi, whose nervous feet were shaking slightly, saw Chen Shouyi standing there in a daze, and asked strangely.

Ah, nervous! Chen Shouyi came back to his senses, turned his head and said.

Are you nervous?

He has been in another world for so long, and even killed twenty or thirty barbarians, not to mention this kind of space channel that has been explored several times, so there is no danger.

I see you are in a daze!

This is a way to relieve stress. As long as your mind is empty, your mind wanders, and you don't think about anything, you won't feel nervous anymore, Chen Shouyi said ghostly.

Really, then I'll try!

He believed it and immediately imitated Chen Shouyi and let go of his energy.

Is it useful? Not long after, a middle-aged man nearby asked impatiently.

Zhou Xue's ears couldn't help but prick up.

I was woken up by you as soon as I was empty, but it seems to be useful.

...

To Chen Shouyi's surprise, he was just a nonsensical nonsense, but many people around him followed suit. As long as they looked back, they could be seen everywhere.

It was like having chicken plague.

Even Zhou Xue, who has always been aloof and cold, was among them.

Does it really work?

Chen Shouyi himself was a little confused.

...

Just over a minute later, a person limped out of the passage.

He was in a panic, with blood on his hands and knees.

Brother, did you pass it!

He shook his head with a gloomy expression: It's a bit unlucky, I accidentally tripped over a grass and vine, fell, and broke my arm.

Only then did everyone notice that there was a bulge on his bare arm.

After all, it is three times the gravity, even if the apprentice's bones are strong, he will not be able to please him if he falls.

You're really unlucky, what's going on in the passage, and, are you still taking the previous items?.

There are not so many projects this time. There seems to be an island on the other side of the passage. There is only one assessment content, which is to hunt and kill a very aggressive seabird. You can pass if you kill one, but I didn't see it. came back.

Listening to the young man's answer, Chen Shouyi thought to himself, It seems that the assessment requirements for martial arts apprentices have become simpler this time, and are no longer as strict and comprehensive as before.

You can use both bow and cold weapon to kill birds.

As long as one is qualified, you can pass.

And being able to move in a different world and kill a seabird is enough to show that the physical fitness has passed the test.

...

Not long after, people came out one after another.

Some were pale, some were excited, some were bloody, and some were clean.

Fifteen minutes later, when the five martial artist apprentices with broken legs were carried out by several instructors, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Warning again, this assessment is risky, and it's still too late to quit now.

But no one withdrew this time. After all, only a small number of people were injured, less than one tenth, and depending on the situation, the pass rate was very high, almost reaching the third floor, which was completely unimaginable before.

More importantly, none of the candidates died.

Now the next batch is still the first twenty-five people in each row.

Finally, it was Chen Shouyi's turn.

He was shocked, impatient to wait a long time ago.

Then he and Zhou Xue walked forward with the crowd.
