Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Mutants were sitting in the rest area at the edge of the physical ability test room. Many mutants were gathered in twos and threes. 200 people could take the test at one time, but many people were discussing at this time.

"I'll tell you later, if you see the right opportunity, go to the director. He will be a little more relaxed. You can't skip the high jump and long jump. As long as it is a little better than last year's results, he will still give 7 to 8 points. "

Several mutants around nodded. If they can't skip a level, most of the time these examiners will only give 6 points, but 1 more point is good. The promotion scores for the three smaller levels within the mutant level are much lower. , as long as the score is higher than last year's score, some mutants who only scored 60 or 70 points last year can get 30% more salary if they can be promoted to a lower level.

This is the biggest pursuit of many thousand-year-old D-class mutants. Just advance from D1 to D3, and then take a relegation exam every three years. For many low-level mutants with a rated minimum salary of 2,500, this is 90% more income. The income will rise to close to 5,000, which is more than enough for many low-level mutants.

As the sun's rays began to heat up, the physical ability test examination room became lively. More than 4,000 mutants had all entered the examination room. There were many people standing at the high jump and long jump events, many confident mutants. Everyone plans to get 11 or 12 points in the high jump and long jump, but a small number of mutants choose the physical endurance test venue that many mutants are least willing to test.

Li Dan was among them. Most of the people who came here to take the exam were A-level mutants, and there were only a small number of B-level mutants.

There are many experts who claim to be experts on the mutant promotion exam. They publish exam strategies every year. They analyze each exam in detail. Most of the conclusions drawn are that it is best to get the scores first in the high jump and long jump. of.

However, the higher the level of mutants, they all know that when their physical condition is excellent at the beginning, their endurance is the strongest. As long as they get full marks in this project, they will basically not be dragged down by other projects. Many mutants will not be dragged down by other projects after passing all the exams. After the exam, the final test was about physical endurance. Among the previous test items, three items required the use of a large amount of alienated cells.

Psychokinesis, vision, and scab production, these three items will consume most of the mutants' physical strength. Once the physical strength is damaged, the endurance will naturally be reduced a lot, so many people can only get two or three points from this project every year. , but if you pass all the tests by skipping a level at the beginning, although it will consume your physical fitness, you can rest outside the court and replenish some water. Your physical strength will recover much faster than usual. Then you can go to high jump and long jump at that time, which is the right choice.

"You're not even D-level, are you? Do you really want to come?"

An A-level mutant stared at Li Dan sideways. He smiled without saying a word. Sure enough, the strange man he met before was also there. His name was Seer. Li Dan had already investigated him, and a middle-level man named The 43-year-old son of the boss of Jichang Composite Materials Company comes from a relatively good background and privately participates in a training club for mutants.

Another one that is more concerning is the original Lightning Skull S-class mutant, Eric. He will take part in this mutant promotion exam. Li Dan did not expect that in that team, all the members are elite S-class mutants or above. Everyone in the Lightning Skull and Bones Society is very strong, and can often pass some mutant relegation exams. Mutants above S level usually do not need to undergo physical tests, and they are all directly related to the S level in the industry. Mutants fight.

Basically, the people from the Lightning Skull usually win. Li Dan looked at Niya who walked in from the door. She was also a person from the Lightning Skull. It was said that the president of the Lightning Skull, Xiong Dabiao, and the vice president Olivia were Her strength is on par with Niya's.

Li Dan once asked Mo Xiaolan about this, and Mo Xiaolan only said it once. If we really have to fight head-on, we don't know who will stand last.

"hehe!"

Li Dan clenched his fists, feeling hot in his heart. He glared at Eric fiercely. At this time, Eric also noticed Li Dan and walked over directly.

"The champion this time should be with you!"

Li Dan looked at Eric with some surprise. He had short flat hair, a big mouth, and an earring hanging on his right side. He was thin but looked well-proportioned.

"How is it possible? I estimate that I will be eliminated in the first round."

Eric smiled and turned towards Nia.

"Just stay in Class B. Why are you causing trouble?"

Eric shook his head helplessly.

"No way Niya, do you think we are all rich ladies like you who don't need to worry about money!"

boom

Eric already had one hand on his abdomen.

"Come here again, I broke two ribs before when you were drunk like this."

The sound of the blow just now was very loud, and everyone present looked at Nia with solemn expressions. Eric only stepped back more than three meters and stopped.

"It looks like you haven't neglected your exercise, come on, boys!"

Niya said, waving her hands and walking towards Michelle, when Sel came closer.

"Maybe this championship match will be between two of us!"

Li Dan stared at Seer sideways. Like him, Seer had no mutant level. Taking the exam for the first time, Li Dan nodded slightly.

After the physical ability test is over, many mutants will probably complain to the examiner.

There are semicircular machines in front of you. After entering, you will first start with the heat resistance test, then the cold resistance, and finally the electricity resistance. Most mutants will use alienated cells on the surface of their body skin to conduct simple tests. Crystallization builds a heat and cold insulation layer, which basically does not last long. The heat resistance starts from the lowest 30 degrees, increases in increments of 10 degrees, and finally rises to 90 degrees. It depends on which grade you choose. In that steamer-like machine, it lasted for 1 minute.

At this stage, most people's choice is as long as they can survive 30 seconds. They don't want to consume too many alienated cells. As long as they pass 30 seconds, basically as long as they don't perform worse than last year at the same level, they can get full marks.

The cold resistance starts from minus 10 degrees and will eventually rise to minus 60 degrees.

Electricity resistance will be based on the body values ​​​​of previous years, and the system will give the candidate a current shock of a certain amount of electricity. If the candidate still retains consciousness after being shocked, it is basically passed. The last step is the ability to withstand the instant drop of heavy objects, and the body's The compression resistance in various directions is mainly tested using a cylindrical machine next to the ball.

The reason why this project is the most difficult to get points is because the project is too complicated. In the end, points will be awarded based on the comprehensive data of the project. All the tests in this project can get bonus points, so someone in this project got it all at once. 20 points is not surprising.

This project, which is prohibitive for middle- and low-level mutants, is an important project for many high-level mutants to score points.

Next, after the high jump and long jump, most high-level mutants will choose the comprehensive impact of the grip, which is also a test item with good bonus points.

Time passed by, and Le Xiao was already standing near the high jump and long jump examination rooms. Many mutants were watching, a little intimidated, especially looking at Le Xiao standing under the first pole used for the high jump examination. At that time, many mutant candidates began to circle the field and reached pole No. 10.

"Master Le Xiao, how about you take charge of scoring the No. 1 benchmark this morning?"

At this time, a female examiner came over and Le Xiao nodded. It was already 7:41 and the exam would start in 19 minutes. Le Xiao felt a little excited.

In the block on the ground floor, light and shadow screens were broadcasting live broadcasts of morning mutant promotion exams from different TV stations at a distance.

At this time, the lower floors have not yet received the light, but many people have taken to the streets, especially in some lively streets. Some people took the initiative to help the shop owner move out the tables and chairs, and ordered some random things. A few people filled the room We set up a table and began to watch and discuss with gusto.

At 7 o'clock sharp, these light and shadow screens appeared. On them were the words that the Angus family invited the people at the bottom to watch the live broadcast. Everyone also understood. As expected, Le Xiao did not break her promise before. It seemed that she must have done it. What could make the city's No. 1 rich man invite all the people at the bottom to watch the live broadcast of the mutant promotion exam? At this time, the streets were filled with voices of praise.

Usually for such a live broadcast, the bottom layer needs to pay 10 yuan per person, which is already the lowest price, but for the bottom layer, 10 yuan is very difficult for them.

If you want to broadcast the live broadcast in public, individuals are not allowed. This will violate the law. You must be a merchant. To purchase the live broadcast rights, the minimum cost for the merchant is 200 yuan. It will also be based on the qualifications of the merchant. Be judged.

Over the years, the annual live broadcast of mutant promotion exams at the bottom level has only earned less than 20 million yuan, and the population at the bottom level is 18 million. However, this time the Angus family invested 30 million to buy all the broadcasting rights of the bottom level TV station. The purchase was at a premium. It's a big deal.

The prices for the middle and upper class are more expensive. A single person pays 30 yuan, and each additional family member will pay an additional 10 yuan. However, most people choose to go to some restaurants and bars. Most of these businesses need to pay at least 600 yuan. , or even 1,000. Some larger stores cost at least several thousand or even tens of thousands.

The restaurant will also increase its prices during this period. You must purchase a food and drink combo package before you can enter the store. Some people choose to watch at home, while others book a large table with relatives and friends to watch comfortably, so the price is calculated. , many people are still willing to go to restaurants and bars. Calculated, it is only a little more expensive than paying at home, but you can have something to eat and you can discuss it with people around you. After all, everyone is gambling during this season.

Many businesses have made preparations to store food and drinks for this time several months ago, so it is unlikely that there will be a shortage of food supply in the past few days.

The upper level is more expensive, 50 for a single person, 30 for one more family member, and 20 for one more family member, but most people in the upper level don't care about this money. You can buy an on-site ticket for 100 yuan, or buy a VIP seat.

But during the few days of the exam, I can only afford food, clothing, housing and transportation close to the 5 subjects, and the cost will be at least thousands.

One ticket can only select one examination room to watch the simultaneous battle, and one person can only buy one on-site ticket. There is no distinction between children and adults.

Opposite the 13th branch shop, in the noodle shop, Chen Qiao had just had breakfast. He was watching the live broadcast on the light and shadow screen in the noodle shop. The businessmen were still there. They did not leave. Instead, under the guidance of Wu Qun last night, everyone was at war with each other. The relationship has been eased to a certain extent.

Under Wu Qun's persuasion, the businessmen did not plan to leave, but planned to wait for Le Xiao to come back and convene a meeting among the three major factions.

In the end, people from the three factions all nodded in agreement. Chen Qiao didn't want to talk to Jiang Hao and Su Li at first, but in the end he listened to Wu Qun because Wu Qun had never let them suffer a loss for so many years, even if Not once.

"Old Wu, come and sit here."

At this time, Wu Qun walked in, and a younger businessman shouted. Several people moved their positions, and Wu Qun sat over without any courtesy.

"Boss, give me a bowl of noodles and three slices of barbecued pork."

"Old Wu, you are so fat. Are you afraid that your wife will dislike you if you continue to eat?"

The room burst into laughter, Chen Qiao also smiled, and even McCullin in the corner teased Wu Qun, but this group of people had never had such an experience, crowded into a small noodle shop to watch Live broadcast of the mutant promotion exam.

At this time, in a small food shop opposite the noodle shop, the boss kept explaining to people who wanted to come in that the place was booked.

There are only more than 20 people sitting in the store, including Jiang Hao and Honghong, as well as people from the Film Association. The store is still mostly empty, so the boss is naturally willing. After all, this big boss has spent a lot of money to book the entire store for the past few days. He directly gave 200,000 yuan for the right to use the store, and said that if it was not enough, he would pay more. 200,000 yuan was enough. The boss was diligently serving the people in the store at this time.

Jiang Hao hugged his wife Honghong, and the two of them sat comfortably on the sofa, looking at the noodle shop opposite from time to time. Chen Qiao, who was sitting at the door, also looked over from time to time.

More and more people took to the streets, and people from Section 5 were maintaining order. Many people brought chairs and some snacks and directly found some comfortable places to sit down. The sun was already shining. Most of the streets on the ground floor.

"Everyone, the exam will start in 5 minutes. Candidates who want to take the exam first, please line up near the item you want to take the exam."

Following Michelle's order, the live broadcasts in the city instantly switched to live broadcast rooms one after another. Most of the live broadcast rooms broadcast some exciting battles in the past few years, as well as some side-by-side performances by some professionals. For narration and explanation, some TV stations invited celebrities, and some individual anchors began to joke about the battles of the past few years.

Everyone was enjoying the feast, and the exam started on time at 8 o'clock.

Le Xiao looked at the No. 1 pole where he was with some confusion. Many people bypassed Le Xiao and queued up at the No. 2 pole.

"I said, what's going on with you? This place is empty."

Le Xiao said something, but there were still many people pushing, as if they didn't want to take the exam at Le Xiao's side, and many candidates could only smile awkwardly.

"Looking down on me or what? Let me tell you, the score I gave must be fair, just and reasonable."

Even if Le Xiao said so, many candidates still couldn't come because everyone was afraid. Each of these senior officials in the business department was more severe than the last. Naturally, they knew this. The telekinesis examination office where Michelle was located was also No one dared to take the exam.
