The written exam set up here was very different from the imperial examination in Han Dong's mind.
The written exam here was more like a brain test … a test of the brain's ability.
Although the corpse country was similar to the ancient empires of Kyushu in some aspects, there was still a big difference in nature.
For example, the steam machine technology in the corpse country and the "bottom-feeders" made up of zombies.
Han Dong had a very casual attitude. If he could pass such an exam, he would pass it. If he couldn't, he would become a locksmith.
After all, he could explore this world from any direction, so it didn't matter to Han Dong.
When he stepped into the first floor of the Internal Affairs Building, he was personally led by a zombie with a talisman on its forehead.
The talisman's function was not to suppress evil, but to keep the zombie's consciousness awake.
Han Dong was quickly brought to a separate room.
In addition to the four treasures of the study on the table, there was also a series of small machines.
"Please answer the questions on the scroll within the allotted time and complete the decryption of the small machines."
"Okay."
Han Dong stared at the small machines on the table and wanted to laugh. This was nothing more than a strengthened version of the puzzle toys he had when he was young. There were rubik's cubes and some metal buckles, and the final step involved the assembly of a precision watch.
As for the content on the scroll, most of it involved some more open management questions.
"It's very simple … but I'll be more casual.
If I can pass, I'll pass. If I can't, I'll go work. "
If he wanted to be serious, Han Dong could fill the scroll with answers from different angles. He could even write down the decryption process of the metal machines on the side.
However, Han Dong's choice was only half done. It depended on the other party's arrangement.
An hour passed.
After finishing the written exam, all the zombies from the floating island gathered at the training field. At the same time, a large number of zombies emitting green auras surrounded the training field, waiting for the results of the written exam to be announced.
A zombie with a talisman on its forehead announced the results.
"When all the zombies' results are announced, those who pass can draw a 'district card' from me.
Li Aiyuan, Good in the martial exam, Pass in the written exam, obtained the right to live in the corpse country.
Lin Xi, Pass in the martial exam, Fail in the written exam, obtained the right to live in the corpse country.
Zhang Quan, martial arts exam results: [Failed], literature exam results: [Failed]. "
When he read the name of the zombie who failed both tests, an incomparably sturdy metal ring was immediately thrown in from outside the field, locking the neck of this person.
As the results were announced one after another, about one-third of the zombies failed and became locksmiths.
Two of them were so agitated that they tried to commit suicide … Who would have thought that a talisman would float over and stick to their heads? Their resisting emotions were soothed, and it could even be said that they were completely controlled.
Finally, it was Dr. Swelling's turn to announce his results.
"Huang Zecheng, [Excellent] results in the martial arts exam and [Excellent] results in the literature exam. You have obtained the right to reside in the zombie nation and the right to take the imperial exam. You have been summoned by Governor Pei. After the results of the other zombies are announced, please head to the top floor of the Internal Affairs Building."
The other zombies were envious when they received such a report.
However, the doctor himself was a little worried. He quickly looked at Han Dong beside him.
Han Dong's voice immediately sounded, "Doctor, very good … It seems that there is a high probability that you will stay in the Imperial City to work for the court. In that case, you can start from the inside.
Remember one thing.
Inquire about the information about the Rampagers. Your main focus should be on fighting for power and status. If you can obtain a certain official position in the court, it will be convenient for us to close the net in the future.
Moreover, the mechanical technology in the zombie nation should also be concentrated in the Imperial City. You should be very interested. "
"Got it."
Next, it was Han Dong's turn to announce his results.
"Han Dong, [Failed] results in the martial arts exam and [Passed] results in the literature exam. You have obtained the right to reside in the zombie nation."
"Huh? I really passed … "He didn't have the expression of the other zombies who had just passed the passing line. Instead, he looked a little melancholy.
After the last zombie's results were announced, the unqualified locksmiths were immediately taken away by force. The specific place they were taken to was unknown.
Dr. Swelling went to the top floor of the Internal Affairs Building again to meet with the governor of the dragon boat.
Han Dong was an ordinary zombie. He went forward to draw a "district card".
The zombie nation had a total of 18 districts. The foreign islanders who obtained the right to live in the zombie nation would decide which district to live in through this form of drawing lots. Although they were all located within the zombie nation, there were great differences between different districts. There were even differences in public security.
Rumor had it that in the worst district, the new zombies couldn't even live for a few days.
Therefore, before drawing lots, many zombies from large floating islands were praying quietly. They had some understanding of the districts of the zombie nation in advance, hoping that they could get a better district.
When it was Han Dong's turn, he casually picked a wooden stick from the wooden box.
[14 – Oil Workshop District] was printed on it.
When the zombies not far away saw the wooden stick that Han Dong picked, they immediately covered their mouths to hide their laughter. It seemed that they had picked the worst one.
"Oil Workshop?"
Combined with the zombies' attributes, Han Dong could roughly guess some of the things. It seemed to be a little dangerous, but it might be a good district for Han Dong.
Han Dong took the wooden stick and continued to go through the relevant procedures to enter the city.
"This is your 'civilian card'. Remember to wear it on your body at all times. It's best to swallow it in your body. The patrolmen in each district will often check the identity of individuals. The civilian card will be the only proof of identity."
"That's it? Is there no housing arrangement? "
"Housing?" The zombie who issued the civilian card lifted the talisman paper in front of his forehead and looked at Han Dong with a contemptuous look, "Do you think the zombie nation is a remote place like the floating islands? Every inch of land in the zombie nation is extremely expensive. Ordinary zombies are not qualified to get housing. But with your achievements, you don't have to worry about housing.
You will experience a different life in the oil workshop district. "
"Then, is there a job arrangement?"
"Of course, when you arrive at the oil workshop district, you can choose an oil workshop to report to. There will be someone to arrange a position for you."
When the zombie spoke, he maintained a sinister smile.
If it was in the Hybrid Demon World, Han Dong would definitely punch such a yin and yang person.
"If there is no problem, take your 'civilian card' and go down from here."
The zombie pointed to the stairs behind him, which would lead to the outside of the dragon boat.
The port responsible for docking the dragon boat was another 'transportation center'. New zombies would be 'packed up' in the port area and sent directly to the corresponding area through pipeline transportation to avoid them passing through other areas.
Han Dong was confined in an ordinary coffin and slid quickly along the metal pipeline.
Until the sliding stopped.
The coffin had been sent to the [Graveyard] in the oil workshop district. The individual needed to climb out of the ground by digging the soil on their own. It symbolized that the individual was reborn in the zombie nation and lived a new life.
As soon as he climbed out.
The strong smell of oil came from all directions.
Although he couldn't breathe, Han Dong's body surface condensed a lot of oil droplets due to exposure to the air here.
"It seems that I really chose a bad area."
