In the woods about one kilometer away from the training base.
Looking up at the blue sky and the halo passing through the gaps of the leaves, Sun Rong, who was lying on the ground, felt nostalgic.
Speaking of which, how long has it been since he was arranged to be in this training base after graduation?
He didn't quite remember the specific date of his enlistment. He only remembered that he had left modern society for almost two years …
Over the past two years, there was not a moment that he did not want to leave this place.
Not only because of the boring disconnected life here, but also because he didn't want to waste his precious time in a training camp.
However, the cruel test defeated him again and again. Every time he confidently signed up for an exam, the final result was that he was beaten back to square one.
However, he was a strong person after all.
Even if reality knocked him to the ground time and time again, he never felt depressed. Instead, he summed up his experience through countless failures and became braver the more he fought.
He could clearly feel that every failure made him braver and stronger.
This was true for himself and the parts on his body that had been replaced through surgery …
However, this time, a deep sense of defeat engulfed his entire body.
An ancient person from 100 years ago, without even a single cell in his body modified by modern science, just some conventional weapons with low technical content and a set of training kinetic skeleton, beat him to this state.
Maybe …
I was wrong from the beginning.
The problem was not the parts at all, but the person who used those parts …
"You won … Can you help me put my legs on?"
He picked up the dagger that fell to the ground and stuffed it back into the toolbox. Wang Peng, who was wearing the kinetic skeleton, hesitated, then shook his head and said.
"I only know how to dismantle … I haven't learned how to install it yet."
Sun Rong sighed.
"Okay … I'm unlucky."
…
It wasn't just Sun Rong who didn't expect that he would lose so miserably in the hands of an old popsicle. The examiners in charge of the invigilation also didn't expect that the outcome of this game would be reversed in such an unexpected way.
Inside the invigilation room.
A deathly silence pervaded among the examiners.
Originally, they were worried that Wang Peng, a newbie who had just joined the army for a month, might have an accident during the exam, so the examiners in the examination room had been paying attention to the entire process of the competition. In the end, they did not expect to see such an ending.
The head examiner couldn't help but say as he looked at the screen in disbelief.
"Play it again … pull out all the shots! Let me see how he does it! "
The staff standing next to the monitor gulped and quickly tapped a few times on the holographic screen with his index finger.
Soon, twelve surveillance images from different perspectives were projected on the holographic screen.
The entire battle ended in less than five minutes.
Wang Peng, who entered the battlefield, was the first to use an EMP grenade. After realizing that it did not work, he quickly distanced himself from Sun Rong.
After more than ten seconds of chasing, Wang Peng temporarily lost Sun Rong's vision with a heat-source smoke bomb.
Just when everyone thought that the newbie would distance himself and try to make up for the disadvantage in physical fitness through firearms, an amazing scene happened.
Wang Peng, who was engulfed in smoke, did not retreat. Instead, he rushed toward Sun Rong, who was close to his limit. At the same time, he pulled out the dagger tied to his leg.
The outcome of the battle was decided in an instant.
Obviously, Sun Rong didn't expect that Wang Peng, who had been chased by him, planned to attack him head-on under the cover of the smoke bomb. When he felt the whistling wind, it was already too late.
The mechanical nerve in his leg was cut off, and a prompt of [(Left) (Right) Bionic Leg Damaged] was directly projected on his retina. Then, the message of serious injury and loss of the elbow joint also popped up.
"Unbelievable …" The examiner's expression changed as he muttered to himself, "This speed … Is it achievable by humans?"
"It seems that he has mastered the trick of fighting against implanted prosthetics. He can accurately attack the weaknesses. This quality is difficult for ordinary people to have." The deputy examiner put down his arms and pinched his chin. He thought for a moment and said, "Of course, our bionic prosthetics also need to be improved. If we encounter such an opponent on the battlefield … This prosthetic will become a disadvantage."
"There's also the battlefield analysis system. Although individual behavior cannot be predicted by mathematical models, the results of the calculation should not be this biased." Lin Feng, Wang Peng's instructor, said in a gentle tone while looking at the combat power analysis index and result forecast on the screen, "This system should also be updated."
At this moment, someone suddenly said.
"Could it be that Sun Rong went easy on him?"
"Impossible." The chief examiner shook his head. "Other than the big problem of underestimating the enemy, he basically played all of his abilities. It's just that he probably didn't expect his opponent to be so ridiculously strong."
One of the examiners asked, "Then does he pass the first round of the exam?"
The invigilator room fell into silence again.
"Increase the difficulty of the next two rounds." The chief examiner finally broke the silence and made a decision. He said, "After all, graduating in a month is too exaggerated."
Hearing these words, the deputy examiner standing next to him couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face.
Exaggerated?
It's quite exaggerated …
He took the exam in the first month after entering the training base, and he even defeated Sun Rong, who had received two years of training, in the first round of the exam.
Isn't this tantamount to slapping all of our faces? Does this mean that the entire training base is useless?
Obviously, this is not possible!
Lin Feng, who was standing on the side, suddenly spoke.
"I heard that he used to be the bodyguard of Academician Lu."
Hearing these words, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, and their mood recovered a little.
Academician Lu's bodyguard?
I see.
Although they didn't look up to those old popsicles who drifted to the future, considering the background of the era, to be able to serve as the bodyguard of Academician Lu, he must have been the strongest person at that time …
…
The remaining two rounds of the exam were over, and the results this time were quite miserable. Out of the 200 applicants, only one person passed all the tests.
The most annoying thing was that the only candidate who passed not only only attended a one-month course, but he was also an old popsicle from 100 years ago …
In the dormitory.
Wang Peng, who had already received the "graduation certificate", was packing his luggage.
Although he only brought a few clothes when he came and didn't bring too many things, the necessary tidying up was still indispensable.
Especially for things like clothes and quilts, he had an almost paranoid obsessive-compulsive disorder, which was that they must be neatly folded, preferably the kind that could be picked out.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
Without looking up, Wang Peng, who had his back to the door, responded casually.
"Please come in."
The door opened, and the instructor, Lin Feng, pushed the door open and walked in.
"The car is already waiting at the door. We will take you to the nearest maglev station."
"Thank you."
Because the work of the Security Bureau itself was relatively mysterious, although the training base had the business of training agents for them according to the standards of special forces, there was no information connection between the two agencies.
To put it more bluntly, Wang Peng, who had the "graduation certificate", needed to go back and report himself.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome, this is what we should do." Lin Feng nodded, smiled, and continued, "Speaking of which, after you get out of here, what do you plan to do?"
Wang Peng thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing much I can do. After all, I just woke up less than two months ago, and I don't know much about this era … Anyway, I'll report to my superiors first, then go to Jinling on the way."
Although he was no longer Lu Zhou's driver, as a friend from the same era, he was still a friend. He wanted to share this good news with him as soon as possible.
Lin Feng: "What I mean is, did you leave in such a hurry because of the case?"
Hearing this unexpected sentence, Wang Peng frowned subconsciously.
"Case?"
"Nothing, I just asked out of curiosity." Lin Feng said with a smile, "I suddenly thought that you are different from my students. You are from the Security Bureau. In that case, I won't ask any more questions. I misspoke just now. "
"Then, I wish you all the best."
"Although it's only a short month, I will remember the names of each of you."
Lin Feng nodded slightly. After sending his blessing, he turned around and left the door.
Looking at the closed door, Wang Peng frowned, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he turned around and continued to look at his suitcase. He folded his clothes meticulously.
However, for some reason, the previous sentence made him feel a little strange.
"Just out of curiosity …?"
Academician Lu seemed to like saying this sentence.
But …
Would bionics be curious?
As he folded his clothes absent-mindedly, Wang Peng was puzzled.
He had never understood what kind of existence the robots of this era were …
