Chapter 517 Training and Assessment
Chapter 517 Training and Assessment
After Chen Bitong finished speaking, he looked at the five people in the field, including Chen Chuan, and said, "If no one withdraws, then the assessment will begin now."
The five of them all had serious expressions and stood there without moving.
Of course no one will quit. Those who have made it this far, although not necessarily the best, have some strength and sufficient confidence in themselves.
What's more, being able to take part in the assessment of the training class can add a significant addition to your resume. Even if you fail, being able to get here is enough to show your strength, and you are already much better than other students.
Chen Bitong waited for a while, and when no one spoke, he nodded and said, "Let's get started."
As he spoke, Chen Chuan saw the surrounding scenery gradually melt away and turn into a wilderness.
He glanced around and found himself standing on a mudflat with almost no tall grass or trees. There were quite a few scattered low shrubs around, and he could see far away at a glance.
He had experienced many scenes during his previous training, but all of them involved complex terrain and dense vegetation. Sites like this were rare, so it seemed that this assessment was particularly different.
Chen Bitong stood not far in front of him and said to him, "Captain Chen, you are different from others. You are the first batch to enter the training class and you are also the one who persisted to the end, so I will be more strict in my assessment of you.
I'm going to let you enter a simulated area where you won't know what's going to happen.
Some of these you have seen before in training, some you have never encountered before, and I will score you based on the choices you make and the organisms you eliminate.
I have said this before, and I am reminding you again now, the Ministry of Defense is paying attention to this simulation, and I hope you can take it seriously.
Since the degree of simulation is very high this time, it is likely to cause you some harm, so if you want to give up halfway, just announce it. "
Chen Chuan responded seriously: "Teacher Chen, I understand."
"Then start now," Chen Bitong turned around and looked in one direction, "You go in this direction. Don't stop until the scene simulation is finished."
After saying this, his figure disappeared.
Chen Chuan looked forward and walked forward along the soft and sticky mudflat.
At this time, the golden light shone on patches of wet, winding mud and water, which were mixed with various plants and scattered mud and gravel. It looked like an overturned palette.
After walking only a few steps, he suddenly noticed countless black spots appearing in front of him, and heard a buzzing sound. It turned out that a large group of ferocious-looking birds were flying towards him.
He took a look and understood. No wonder they chose this open area. There was a mudflat underfoot that was so slippery that he could not escape easily. If he did not admit defeat, he would have to stay here and deal with these things.
Then give it a try.
He thrust the Snow King Knife into the mud. With a clang, the blade came out of the scabbard as his body moved, reflecting a sharp cold light under the sunlight.
Half an hour later.
Gu Haiting and two other students walked out of the training ground and went outside to rest and wait.
This assessment was really difficult, and they only lasted this long.
Gu Haiting sat down on the sofa, asked the waiter to pour him a cup of tea, and drank it leisurely.
Although he came out a little early, he didn't feel it was a pity. He came here not only to learn some things, but also to communicate with Chen Chuan.
At present, both things are going smoothly. Chen Chuan has reached a cooperation, and he has also made it to the final assessment of the training.
He looked towards the training ground and saw that only Yu Lie and Chen Chuan had not come out.
I just don’t know who will be able to hold on to the end.
Although Chen Chuan is stronger than Yu Lie, it is not difficult to hear from the conversation between the two students opposite that the content of this assessment is different for everyone and is tailored to each person's situation, which makes it very difficult to say.
Two hours passed in a flash while I waited.
Gu Haiting was a little surprised. This had already exceeded the daily simulation time. He must have allocated more resources for this assessment.
It seems that you really take it very seriously.
After a while, Yu Lie came out. He took a quick look and saw that Chen Chuan was not among the people present. He could not help but snorted and sat aside to wait.
In the simulated scene, Chen Chuan was still trudging forward. Along the way, he kept killing all kinds of ferocious creatures that attacked him.
Moreover, the terrain changed many times, which only made things more difficult for him.
At this moment, he felt that the normal time limit should have passed, but there was no sign of stopping.
Suddenly, a few tiny insects floated around him. He did not ignore them, but turned his eyes and observed them carefully. The creatures in the fusion land seemed to have no clear growth limit. There were always some individuals in the group that seemed to have the characteristics of unlimited growth.
You don’t know what those large organisms were originally like. They might just be a small insect that you could step on to death at any time. But after many metamorphosis, they might become something you can’t imagine.
This point is demonstrated vividly in the simulated scene. Anything he encounters now may undergo unpredictable transformation. He has experienced this no less than twice when he came here before.
There are also some things that will not transform directly, but if they are disturbed a little, they may attract a large group of their own kind. Therefore, he cannot let his guard down for a moment and needs to pay attention to sudden changes around him at all times.
In fact, according to what Chen Bitong usually said, the real fusion area might not have such a high intensity, but if you go deep into the unexplored territory, the danger level may not be less than what is happening now.
As he continued to move forward, he suddenly felt the ground shaking slightly. He immediately stood still. About twenty meters ahead, the ground bulged up.
He stared at that place, and it seemed that this time something big was going to happen.
With a loud bang, the soil exploded and a huge, hard-shelled insect with shaggy tentacles crawled out from the ground.
Its overall appearance is gray-black, with eight pairs of thick limbs supporting its heavy body. The transparent membranous wings behind it are firmly attached to the sides and rear. Its body length looks to be about four meters, and under its cold compound eyes are huge pincer-like mouthparts.
When it appeared, the soil around it was turned over, and more small insects of similar appearance crawled out. Looking around, such movements occurred within a radius of several kilometers.
He had never seen this kind of thing before, but he could tell that it was an insect master, an alien form that had transformed from a species.
Based on resource time estimation, this may be the last assessment point.
He knew nothing about the attack methods and characteristics of this kind of creatures. If they were in a real blending area, the best way would be to retreat. However, this was a test and there was no option to retreat, so he could only face it head-on.
He stuck the Xuejun Knife into the ground, reached into his pocket, took out a handful of stones, paused for a moment, swung his hand, and threw it at it!
The stones hit the outermost hard shell and shattered into pieces, leaving only a few shallow marks, which shows how hard the insect's shell is.
However, his throw was not intended to hurt it, but to make the simplest judgment based on the traces of collision, so that a reasonable strategy could be formulated.
This method was not taught by Chen Bitong, but was summarized by myself after confronting various organisms in recent days.
At this moment, after the little bugs crawled out of the mud, they flapped their wings and flew towards him, as if to give him some intuitive feeling. Some plants on the ground were instantly eaten clean when these bugs passed by.
This type of population is the most difficult to deal with. Not only does it have large insect masters, but there are also countless groups. If you are not careful, you will fail.
Chen Chuan's eyes were calm. He embraced her, and at the same time his blood and essence filled up, tightening the alienated tissues throughout his body.
With a whoosh, the swarm of insects surrounded him densely, and in just a few breaths, he was completely covered. Only a vague human figure could be seen.
The rest of the insects continued to swarm up, and soon formed a thick insect ball, which continued to expand.
When there were more and more insects and the later ones could no longer cling on and were about to fall, a vibration was felt inside.
It was as if a ripple spread out, and then these insects that were constantly crawling and clustering suddenly stopped, and then like a collapsed pile of sand, they all fell down with a rustle, revealing the figures inside.
Chen Chuan stretched out his hand and brushed off the last few scattered insect corpses from his body.
His eyes were bright, and there was not a single scratch on his body. The hat and protective clothing he was wearing were not torn.
This is a completely simulated reality, so if it is not bitten by these bugs, it means that it will be the same if you encounter it in reality.
This method of attracting the swarm of insects and then shocking them to death in one breath was taught to him by Chen Bitong.
Because killing insects one by one is both inefficient and a waste of physical strength, it is most efficient to gather them together and kill them together with physical strength, but the prerequisite is that the fighter himself can withstand it.
If you don't do a good job of center flowering, then it will only be able to bloom.
But at this time, he saw the insect master in front of him posing with its membranous wings spread out to both sides, while the membranes on both sides of the chest and abdomen stretched out and vibrated violently.
At the same time, he developed a strong sense of danger, and then it seemed as if an invisible wave was coming over him. For a moment, he felt as if countless fine needles were stabbing him. Not only the surface of his body, but even the internal organs and alienated tissues inside his body were trembling, as if they were about to be torn apart.
And those small insects that gathered nearby now fell down in groups, finally forming a huge fan shape. This area was full of densely packed insect corpses several fingers thick.
