Nine-year compulsory education

It was still raining outside, but the rain was light, and it seemed that it would stop soon.

This is an endless mountain range, and about a dozen people are crowded in a fairly empty cave.There are men and women, and they don't look very old. A few are around 20 years old, and there is a group of people who look younger.

The cave was dark and damp, and some people looked terrified, feeling deep despair about their current situation.Some people have the same expressions as usual, obviously they are used to it.

Everyone didn't speak, and stared at the electronic floating screen that appeared in the center of the cave with bated breath.A cold mechanical sound came from above.

[All candidates have entered the examination room, now the assessment rules are announced]

【Assessment will be carried out within the specified time】

[Assessment should be conducted within the specified area]

[Members in the same assessment group are prohibited from killing each other]

[The use of personal terminals is prohibited after the assessment begins, those who violate the rules will be disqualified from the assessment, and the credits for this assessment will be zero]

[After the assessment is over, credits will be given according to the comprehensive evaluation, and the score points of the comprehensive evaluation must not be snatched, and offenders will get zero credits for the current assessment]

This passage was repeated three times, and after making sure that all the candidates heard it, the floating screen was locked in the air and the sound dissipated.

After a deathly silence, someone finally spoke the first sentence: "This... is the assessment?"

No one answered him. It was obviously a person who was taking part in the assessment for the first time, and the questions he asked were all so ridiculous.

After a long time when no one responded, the boy cautiously spoke again: "What should we do now?"

"Wait for the assessment content and prompts." Someone finally gave him an answer.

Jiang Shuo quietly leaned against the corner of the cave, no one noticed him.

He looked about 1 meters tall, with an outstanding appearance and a first-class figure.The cuffs of the shirt were slightly rolled up, revealing a thin layer of smooth muscles on the forearm.The button is buttoned to the top one, giving people a feeling of cold abstinence.

After a long time, the silent cave produced the sound of conversation.

The person who has been observing the terrain since he came in said: "Let's get familiar with it first. My name is Cheng Hu, 21, soldier."

This man has a strong build, with bulging tendons all over his body, and he looks very capable of fighting.As soon as he spoke, some of the first-time participants hesitated and spoke one by one.

"My name is Wan Chao, I'm 16 years old, a soldier."

"He Guangyan, 16, soldier."

"Xu Wei, 16 years old, the key."

"..."

About five or six people reported their situation. They were all 16-year-old boys, the kind who participated in the assessment for the first time.

"Fuck!" Cheng Hu, a muscular man, couldn't help cursing, "Is this the first fucking time to participate in the assessment?"

These people flinched involuntarily and nodded, not daring to answer his words.

"Brother, don't be so irritable! It's not good to scare the children." A frivolous voice came from the other side of the cave.

The visitor had short messy hair, a slender figure, and a cynical smile on his face.The clothes hung loosely on the body, and three buttons were undone at the neckline, revealing a large white and strong chest.

Hearing this voice, Jiang Shuo frowned inadvertently, and turned to look at the area occupied by the crowd.

Sure enough, it was the guy who gave him a headache.

Jiang Shuo is a well-known lone ranger in the training camp, with a high pass rate of 100% in the assessment, but it is only limited to the cognition of the old group of students.But why he hasn't graduated from the training camp is still a mystery.

The one who spoke just now was the guy who had been pestering him and wanted to form a team with him, his name was Qin Xinghai.

According to him, finding someone who is as good as himself in the training camp to form a team will greatly enhance the operability in the army in the future.

Qin Xinghai obviously also noticed Jiang Shuo.

In the meantime, he bypassed those people and came to Jiang Shuo, holding him against the wall with one hand and trapping him in front of his chest.

"How about it bro, it's the third time. I'm willing to admit defeat!"

Jiang Shuo sighed, regretting the bet with him, "Understood, I will submit the application when I get back."

Qin Xinghai nodded in satisfaction, and then turned his attention back to the group of people.

"Now there are 7 fighters, 2 keys. I am an adult, and 6 are taking part in the assessment for the first time. Fuck, can this fucking pass?" Cheng Hu cursed in a low voice, turning his head to two The position of the person, "what's your situation."

"Jiang Shuo, 24, soldier." Jiang Shuo didn't want to conflict with them, it would be too troublesome, so he simply cooperated with their preparations at this time.Pointing to the guy next to him, "Qin Xinghai, 20, soldier."

Hearing that the two of them were adults at any rate, Cheng Hu's expression became a little better.

Jiang Shuo seemed to be timing his speech, and just as he finished speaking, the floating screen that had been silent for a while made another sound.

[It is now 4 am on April 1st]

[The assessment time has arrived, candidates please get ready]

[Assessment time: 10 days in the mimic environment, time ratio 10:1]

[Main Assessment: Logical Reasoning]

[Sub-assessment: physical fitness, combat]

[Candidates note that except for the main and deputy assessment, other related items that are not selected for courses will not be counted as points.Please assign tasks to each candidate reasonably]

The sound is repeated three times.

Because the use of personal terminals is prohibited, these people have to keep their eyes open and remember all the key information above.

Jiang Shuo and Qin Xinghai also came here.

"What does time ratio mean?" someone asked.

"Ten days in the pseudo-environment, and one day in reality." Cheng Hu replied.

[The first area of ​​this assessment: the cave]

[This clue is a picture clue, and the observation time is 3 minutes.Candidates please pay attention to check]

After saying the last sentence, the floating screen suddenly changed into three pieces.

Jiang Shuo & Qin Xinghai: "..."

The two looked at each other, and at the same time got a message from each other's eyes.

This group of people is also very unlucky. What is wrong with them is this kind of cheating stage clue assessment.

Amidst the tense mood of the crowd, pictures gradually appeared on the three floating screens.

A group of people didn't blink their eyes, trying their best to remember the appearance of the picture in their minds.

Jiang Shuo turned to look at Qin Xinghai, "Division of labor. One is complicated or two are simple?"

"The complicated one." Qin Xinghai said.

Jiang Shuo nodded, and cast his gaze on the floating screen.

As for the remaining people, they are not within the scope of their consideration.

No matter how strong a person is, he will still stumble.It is impossible to be a Lone Ranger forever. If he wants to pass the assessment in the future, it is essential to have a classmate.

Qin Xinghai was right, having an equally good teammate would not only play a role of one plus one equals two.

3 minute is fleeting.

The moment the floating screen disappeared, everyone fell silent.

After a long time, someone asked softly, "Has anyone thought of anything?"

Like a circuit connected in series, everyone shook their heads in unison.

"Brother Hu, do you have any ideas?" A boy wearing glasses asked.

Cheng Hu shook his head with an ugly expression, he had never encountered such a problem.God damn picture clue, he doesn't even remember what the picture looks like, find a ghost clue!

"Damn it, why don't you just get out of the cave? Find some clues and just go out!" A 16-year-old boy who looked like a hooligan ran out of the cave cursing.

Cheng Hu was startled, "Brat! Don't go!"

It happened so suddenly that there was no time to react.

Jiang Shuo and Qin Xinghai didn't speak. These people need to learn a lesson.

This is a training camp, no matter what your status is, here you have to obediently follow the rules, obey orders and obey orders, no one will spoil you.

【Warning, Candidate Lu Xiangming is out of the scope of this assessment.Turn on the assessment failure transmission device, and the assessment credits for this field will be zero]

The cold electronic sound sounded again, like a sledgehammer hitting everyone's hearts fiercely.

Jiang Shuo sighed, these people are really unreliable.

"Anyone bring a pen and paper?" Jiang Shuo stepped forward and looked at the remaining eight people.

Of course, just ask, he may not bring enough.He didn't expect these rookies to bring such things.

"No." A group of people said in unison.

Jiang Shuo couldn't help but flashed a look that was as expected, turned around and groped on the cave, and dug out a fairly sharp stone from the crack.

Then he reached into his trouser pocket, took out a piece of clean white paper folded twice in half and a signature pen, and threw them to Qin Xinghai who was watching the play.

Everyone watched Jiang Shuo's actions, but did not speak.

Now they don't have any ideas, so it's a good thing for someone to come forward.

"Make room." Jiang Shuo said flatly, and on the ground vacated by everyone, he re-engraved the two pictures he wrote down on the damp ground.

Qin Xinghai raised his eyebrows and understood what he meant.

The figures they memorized were different. His was complicated, and it would be a mess when drawn on the ground. There was no need to mention finding clues from it.

Bite the cap of the pen with his teeth, and reproduce what he wrote down on this piece of paper.

"Okay, let's all come over and have a look." Jiang Shuo threw the stone casually, took the paper Qin Xinghai handed over and patted it on the ground, then retreated to the back.

Stage clue assessment will increase the difficulty of scoring points according to the stage.Half of their team participated in the assessment for the first time, and the remaining three were half-baked.

Simply poisonous.

In the later stage, there are many situations where points can be obtained. For the points that can be obtained with a little brainstorming, Jiang Shuo is really too lazy to compete with this group of brats.

Every time he passed the assessment, he pressed for the lowest score to get the highest credit, and he didn't waste it at all.

"Brother, have you thought about it?" Qin Xinghai was next to Jiang Shuo, leaning against the cave wall with him.

"Yes." Jiang Shuo replied.

These three pictures are related before and after, like the pictures used to record in ancient times when there were no words. Although they cannot be fully understood, the general meaning should still be understandable.

The breakthrough point was at the corners of the three pictures. If they were given three pictures and something that could move freely, this clue would not be particularly difficult to find.

In order to ease the difficulty for them, Jiang Shuo has already sorted them out in order very considerately.If you can't find it, you're really stupid.

"What is this painting?" A girl asked.

"I don't know. Isn't this too abstract?!" said a boy wearing glasses.

"Damn, my head is about to explode!" said a little yellow hair.

Jiang Shuo & Qin Xinghai: "..."

"Wait! Look at this!" Cheng Hu, who was still 'well-informed', was the first to discover the problem, "These three pieces can be put together, whoever draws well, draw according to it."

The man with eyes volunteered, "I'll come, I studied art before I came to the training camp."

"Okay, remember to make the picture bigger." After finishing speaking, Cheng Hu signaled the people around him to make room for the man with glasses.

Jiang Shuo straightened up and knocked back and forth on a wall a few times.

Qin Xinghai yawned, walked to the entrance of the cave, and stretched out his hand.

After waiting for a long time without hearing the electronic sound from before, Qin Xinghai withdrew his hand and casually wiped the rainwater off his hands twice on his clothes.

It seems that there is still a certain criterion for this assessment area, but I don't know what the next stage will be like.

Qin Xinghai scanned these people around.

Weak, weak, weak, stupid, disabled... There is also a key to fighting the five dregs.

Tsk, this configuration.He suspects now that they are not here to assess, but to help the poor.

This is the beginning of the mystery.
