Global Examination

The stalemate lasted only a few seconds, but it seemed as long as a century.

Suddenly, several light clicks of machine springs broke the stalemate, and someone loaded new arrows into the crossbow.

You Huo glanced at where the sound came from, and three people raised their weapons, turned their backs to them, and faced the two candidates who were about to move.

One of them choked disdainfully: "Damn it, you're a fool!"

The cursing person has a hair of earthy yellow chicken feathers, a hoarse voice, a medium build, and has no distinctive features from the back, so he has no sense of presence in the crowd.

It wasn't until he just rolled up his sleeves, exposing his two-striped arms, that he showed some recognition.

You Huo looked at his arm tattooed into a zoo, and suddenly felt a little familiar.

Soon he realized that he knew this person.

Not only him, but Yu Wen, Shu Xue and Lao Yu would also be able to recognize it if they had a better memory—this is their teammate from the first test, that little hooligan-like tattooed man.

He moved his neck to adjust his aim, and You Huo saw the left side of his face.

Definitely a tattoo guy.

It's been a long time since I saw him. There is a long scar on his face, from his forehead to his cheek, and runs straight through his left eye.

The two grass faces on the wall were flushed, their hands holding the crossbow were clenched tightly, and their joints were white with tension.

"I... I think that crew cut..." One of them swallowed and said nervously, "But the words are not rough."

"Your mother is not rude." The tattooed man continued to speak rudely.

Without looking back, he curled his lips towards Youyou and them: "I've seen these people before. They pretend to be arrogant, have bad faces, and have a bad temper. I really annoy them. A set of beasts are everywhere, and they are still rare. In all conscience, without them, so many mirror people would not have died in this round. I should have died yesterday."

His intact right eye was staring at the grass on the wall, and at the same time he was staring at the small flat head on the opposite side: "I'm just a rascal with a bad temper, but I have my own rules, so I'll just put my words here today! Dang, I want face."

Kaka-

The sound of the machine reel sounded again on the rooftop.

One figure after another set up their crossbows. They turned their backs to the "mirror image man" who was supposed to be shot, and the arrows pointed at the same kind of Xiaopingtou at the same time.

Among them, some are sincere and some are conformity, and no one can tell through the skin.

But that's okay.At least for this moment, they left You Huo and the others with their backs.

There are still a large number of people who don't know how to choose, and they simply lowered their hands.

In the blink of an eye, the wind direction on the entire rooftop changed instantaneously.

The two grass on the wall whispered, and under the pressure of the crowd, they retracted the crossbow.

Xiaopingtou couldn't get off the tiger, and silently cursed "fuck".

Crazy, all fucking crazy!

He was cursing in his heart, and his eyes began to look around, trying to find a chance to change the situation.

At a critical moment, he saw another slender shadow appearing in the gray mist from the corner of his eye—the last wave of mirror images had just died, and those farther away had already rushed over.

Just in time!

The dense crowd of figures approached in an instant, and Xiao Pingtou yelled: "Be careful downstairs!"

As soon as the crossbow on the opposite side slammed, Xiao Pingtou lowered his body and climbed back to the corner while using the fence to cover him.

Selfish people treat everyone the same.

When he was hiding, he didn't greet his companions at all.So in the next second, he heard the muffled groan of his companion.

Shot?

While loading the arrows quickly, Xiaopingtou was thinking in his mind: when the people on the opposite side encounter the mirror image, they will immediately turn their spears, shoot the first wave of arrows first, and then load the second arrow. There will be a gap in the attack , and the rhythm will be chaotic.

He just needs to pinpoint the timing and give it to the other side, maybe it will be done.

At the same time, there will not be too many mirrors remaining, and so many candidates will definitely be able to win after spending a little time.On average, he still has a chance to get higher points.

Xiaopingtou counted silently in his heart: 3, 2, 1.

He leaned out from behind the covering wall, pointed his head straight ahead——

The result was an arrow!

When he saw the sharp arrow point close at hand, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he didn't have time to react!

whoosh-

The tip of the arrow grazed the skin.

The blood all over his body rushed to the arteries, beating wildly on the side of his neck.It was as if someone had yanked his collar, and he fell to the ground in an instant.

Xiaoping stared at the sky, desperately breathing.

Only then did he realize that the arrow had a tricky angle and pierced through his collar, dragging him to the ground in embarrassment.

The archer didn't intend to give him a good time!

He gasped a few times, and suddenly heard a soft sound.

Like something fell on the roof.

His scalp went numb, and he struggled to raise his neck.

In the distance from the corner of his eyes, he saw You Huo unloaded the crossbow from his shoulder, opened his half-closed left eye, and handed the weapon to the people around him.

And near...

Qin Chen is already on the roof!

"How did you come up?!" Xiaoping's voice cracked.

Qin Chen had two arrows hooked in his hands, one second they were on the edge of the roof, and the next second they were in front of Xiaopingtou.

He knelt down, picked up the collar of the crew cut, and said with a snort, "Are you stupid? Didn't you say that we are mirror images?"

Xiaoping's fingers curled up, and just as he was about to grab the fallen crossbow, he heard a click.

The moment the severe pain hit, he realized that Qin Chen had simply and neatly removed his wrist.

There was another soft sound on the roof, and You Huo also came up.

Qin Chen picked up Xiaoping's crossbow, loaded the arrow and turned around to ask You Huo: "Honey, where did Miss Yang get the arrow?"

"Right arm."

Qin Chen nodded, and shot an arrow at Xiaopingtou's right arm.

"what!!!"

Xiaopingtou screamed.

This kind of crossbow is specially made by the townspeople, and it is more than enough to deal with the mirror image people who suddenly get close, let alone ordinary people.

The point of the arrow was nailed into the flesh, and blood gushed out instantly.

You Huo covered the tip of his nose, and pulled the crossbow from Qin Chen's hand.

He didn't even bend his waist, tilted his head against the edge of the crossbow, and shot another arrow at Xiaoping's collarbone: "This is from Lao Yu."

"what!!!!"

Xiaopingtou was rolling on the ground, swearing at the person closest to him: "Fuck your mother! Fuck your mother! Hiss—"

Qin Chen looked at him and said, "Sorry, I really don't have one."

In the next second, Xiao Pingtou was punched in the face.

A hard bone hit his cheekbone, and he hit the ground with his head buzzing and spinning.

He blinked hard, and the blurry vision became clear.

Seeing You Huo shook his hand, he said coldly, "This is an extra gift."

The blood gurgles and winds on the ground. It is fishy and pungent, but it is the most tempting meal for the mirror person.

You Huo frowned, patted Qin Chen and said, "Let's go."

Xiaopingtou struggled to raise his head.

Several heads suddenly popped up from the edge of the roof, and five or six mirror-image figures came up smelling the smell of blood instead of joining in the excitement on the opposite side.

"No... no!" Xiaoping felt cold all over his body, struggling to pounce on Qin Chen and You Huo's legs: "No, you can't go... save me! I can't run away from them! You are the ones who killed you! !"

Qin Chen paused, turned his head and said, "If I remember correctly, we seem to have saved you once in the movie theater? Now it seems that you don't take your life seriously."

Xiaopingtou's eyes widened and his nose flared.

"Then forget it."

Xiaopingtou heard him say.

In the next second, the two figures turned over and jumped down from the roof.

madman.

Two lunatics!

Xiaopingtou cursed in despair and silently.

Those mirror images had climbed to the top of the building, scurrying over with hands and feet, like hungry lizards...

***

The last batch of mirror men frantically besieged the building where the candidates gathered, arrows rained down like rain.

Qin Chen avoided the tip of the arrow and said to You Huo, "Call 154."

"Have you figured out a way?"

The eight of them are indeed troublesome. As long as they stand here properly, the group of candidates will not be able to finish the exam.

In order to send candidates out safely, they must be cleared out of here.

It's like a dead knot.

"There's a solution that doesn't count." Qin Chen said, "It's a little troublesome for the few of us, but at least it can send away irrelevant people."

……

154 came faster than ever, and in just 2 minutes, he appeared at the bottom of the building.

"The restaurant was screened dynamically by the examination room. Have you seen how many points you have lost???" 154 pulled up the hem of his clothes to cover up the traces of rushing, and forced to be meticulous: "If you continue to swipe like this, there will be a bug!"

Qin Chen said, "Isn't that good?"

154: "...I haven't even been able to enter the core area, can you keep a low profile a little bit, boss?"

He was used to calling him "Boss", and he couldn't change it for a while.

"So why call me here? I've been tense for the past few days, just waiting for you to call me."

Qin Chen said, "Aren't there additional questions in this examination room?"

154 nodded and said, "Yes."

Qin Chen: "Help us force it open."

154:"???"

"No, what are you going to do?" He looked up at the platform. As far as he knew, the candidates in the entire examination room were gathered on it: "You haven't finished the exam yet? There are conditions and restrictions on the number of additional questions, no It might all be pulled in."

"What are you doing here? I'm not a system." Qin Chen said angrily.

154:"……"

"Just pull the eight of us in."

The topic is about clearing mirror images. Under normal circumstances, this clearing means killing them all.But in special circumstances, loopholes can also be exploited, because there are additional questions in this examination room.

Judging from the current situation, candidates for additional questions have not been able to open.Then the additional examination room is equivalent to another space.

This is like a house. Their current examination room is the master bedroom, and the additional questions are equivalent to a storage room outside the door, which is not included in the scope of the master bedroom.

If you drag 8 of them into that space, for the second stage of the examination room, they do not exist.

In other words, it was cleared.

"There is no need to really open the examination room." Qin Chen said: "Forcibly triggering the condition is too loud, which is a bit troublesome. Just stuff us in for a while, and the system will judge that the end of the examination is an instant thing. As long as we can guarantee that instant, we will It’s fine if you’re not here.”

154 was a little hesitant.

You Huo asked: "Difficult?"

"Theoretically, it works." 154 said: "There will be a half-minute buffer between the official start of each stage of the exam. The boss's idea is no problem. I can take advantage of the buffer time to let you avoid it there. As long as the time is right, there is no need to ask additional questions. But..."

You Huo: "But what?"

"The stakes are high," 154 said.

You Huo: "Risk?"

154 said: "One is the speed problem. A little delay may trigger a notification procedure. All the invigilators of this exam will realize that you have forced additional questions. As long as one person clicks OK, the system will It can be dealt with logically.”

He paused, and then said: "This is not the biggest thing, there is also life risk. Think about it, the process of switching people from one examination room to another in an instant is extremely fast. The risk can be found when you understand it literally. How big. It just needs to go a little bit wrong--"

He compared a gap with his fingers, and said with a serious face: "You are finished, there may be a situation where half of your body is here and half of your body is there. I have never tried it, but I really can't rule out this possibility .”

Qin Chen said, "It's a bit ugly."

154:"……"

Is this fucking ugly or not? ? ?

You Huo said: "Try and talk."

Who do you talk to when the truth is half over? ? ?

154 really convinced these two.

But after he thought about it, there are only three options in the current situation: kill all the candidates until a certain part can't stand it and raises weapons against them.Or they self-consciously fuck themselves.

Compared with these two, opening additional questions is actually the safest way!

154 nodded helplessly.

If the additional examination room appears, it will only be at the moment when the second stage of the examination is about to end, and the time is extremely tight.

When he returned to the proctor's office, he grabbed 922, and the two went to the information center, staring at the dynamic details of the examination room.

At 14:28 of the examination room time, the third arrow flew away from a crossbow and pointed directly at the last mirror image.

922 said with an electric shock: "Now!"

154 Simulate the system body and issue a command.

At that moment, the system seemed to be aware of it, and the command froze for a while. Although the falter was less than 1 second, it still brought great risks.

154's face changed suddenly, and he suddenly looked up at the invigilator's message processing screen.

On that screen, the messages and processing methods of each invigilator's mobile phone will be displayed clearly.

In a certain room of the proctor's office, 021's mobile phone rang, and a prompt message popped up:

"It is suspected that some candidates opened additional questions in violation of the regulations. 』

There are two options at the bottom:

『Confirmed as false information. 』

"Verified, deal with it immediately. 』

021 froze for a moment.

The big screen in the restaurant has been scrolling through the dynamics for a few days, and all the proctors know who is most likely to cause trouble in this examination room.Not to mention 021.

She understood in an instant, and quickly clicked on the "confirmed as false information" with her finger.

She was a little uneasy as the message was delivered to the trash.

Even more disturbing than her were 154 and 922.

They worry about other proctors.

Back then, A and 001 cooperated secretly in an attempt to destroy the system.The reason why it failed was because it was detected by the system at a critical moment.At that time, 154 was still in the state of being cleared by the main body system, and the specific situation was not known.

But he has always believed that it is not the system itself that is really aware.Because some details between people cannot be perceived by the program, it must be human beings.

Only humans can understand those emotions and capture those subtle things.

Besides, during that process, the system had a special upgrade, which must have been done manually.

154 once suspected that someone had tipped off the secret, or someone had mentioned the system.

He was worried that it was one of the invigilators.

Although he had screened all the proctors for this exam, it was just for emergencies.But at this moment, he was still a little apprehensive.

Ding--

Messages sounded almost simultaneously from all corners of the proctor's office.

The invigilators all looked down at their phones.

154 stared at the screen, barely daring to breathe.

In the next second, a new update appeared on the screen:

『The invigilator 172 has confirmed that the information is false, and it has been handed over to the trash can. 』

『The invigilator 066 has confirmed that the information is false, and it has been handed over to the trash can. 』

『The invigilator 115 has confirmed that the information is false, and it has been handed over to the trash can. 』

……

More than 30 pieces of information were swiped in an instant, and the content of each piece was similar.

154 was stunned for a while, then let out a long breath.

He suddenly felt that people are really amazing.

They are obviously completely independent individuals, but when they encounter some things, they will react exactly the same.

This may be the reason why they were able to become colleagues back then——

A thing called faith and tacit understanding.
