Interviews were probably the only way to find a job or a recommendation. After all, there was nothing more efficient than a face-to-face interview to display a person's speaking skills, basic qualities, and social skills.
However, many newcomers who were anxious to find a job had a misconception. They would prepare a meticulously arranged resume, wear the first suit and leather shoes they wore, and find a stylist for the first time in their lives.
For an overly experienced interviewer, an overly enthusiastic performance would only reveal the fact that you had no experience at all. You would brag to the heavens and be omnipotent. On the other hand, the middle-aged veteran frowned. Who would trust a guy who dared to take on the task without even studying it?
In fact, considering that 80% of the applicants' resumes were "vice class monitor" and 20% were members of the student council, even an idiot wouldn't be so easily fooled.
Then, what was the correct attitude for an interview? At the very least, Marta gave Rorschach a rare answer.
"With our current configuration, our priority is to complete an escort mission. If we have the spare energy, we will take on a treasure hunting mission."
In front of Marta, Rorschach was a picky interviewer. Marta had to display outstanding talent and strength in these short three days in order for Rorschach to make an exception and accept him as a Descender.
When most people encountered such a situation, they would think that it was a rare opportunity to perform well. Perhaps they would be hot-headed and choose a difficult mission.
"This is an opportunity that we can't miss. We have to exceed our standards."
According to Rorschach's expectations, Marta had a high probability of taking on a difficult mission. However, this didn't mean that he was unqualified. After all, as long as he could prove that he was capable of completing a difficult mission, the interviewer would naturally give him a suitable evaluation.
Marta's choice wasn't to take on a difficult and risky hunting mission. Instead, it seemed like a conservative choice.
Taking on an escort mission was probably the least desirable way to complete a mission in this survival competition.
After all, before the escort target reached their destination, their location would be restricted by the escort target. Furthermore, the strength of the opponents they encountered and the information they obtained would be passive … Simply put, it was too passive and wouldn't be able to display any outstanding abilities.
You didn't need to make decisions, make judgments, track, or choose a target … All you needed to do was wait.
However, this escort mission was also a popular choice. Many individual businesses and small battle groups had chosen this mission.
As long as he followed his target steadily and completed the escort mission, he would definitely have the opportunity to display his combat strength. Under normal circumstances, there wouldn't be any opponents that were too extraordinary. The upper limit of his performance was on the low side, but the lower limit was on the high side.
After choosing this mission, Rorschach was not disappointed. Instead, he became interested in Marta.
"If he wanted to pass the test, he wouldn't have come to me. That means that he is confident that he can convince me with this escort mission. Hmm, the team's ability should be pretty good, or else he wouldn't be so confident. "
At this moment, Rorschach finally began to pay attention to the "teammate" in front of him.
Even though Marta was his classmate, there was no need for him to drag her into his team. Originally, he would only choose those who were useful to him. Considering the fact that they were from the same class as him, it would be too difficult for him to do so … Apart from Marta, only one of the 3 people in his team was a junior while the other two were from outside the school.
Marta was a knight. Her magic armor was the third generation of melee infantry armor. Since Rorschach wasn't interested in reading through archeological documents, he probably wouldn't be able to recognize this model.
However, considering that Marta's information stated that she was a commoner and her family wasn't wealthy, it was already quite impressive that she was able to accumulate a half-scrapped magic armor by working and studying for several years.
Soldier A, a red-haired human male. He probably used a bow and arrow.
Soldier B, a strange person with long gray hair and a cloak. Judging from his body, he should be an Agility-based class.
Soldier C … Let's not talk about this "soldier". Rorschach didn't pay much attention to the other party's self-introduction, but he was too embarrassed to ask now. Let's wait until they started addressing each other.
Cough cough, back to the main topic. Soldier C, a girl with average looks and magic power. She should be a spellcaster, but I don't know if she's a priest or a mage or something else. After all, the spellcaster class number in the encyclopedia had reached five digits recently.
Since Marta called Soldier C senior, then she should be a previous graduate, right?
"Looking at it this way, it's quite coordinated. There are melee, ranged, support, and even magic support … This is indeed very suitable for a normal adventuring mission. As long as we find a suitable route, it shouldn't be difficult to complete the escort mission."
Although this kind of introduction was equivalent to nothing, Rorschach didn't mind. After all, he had already planned to flatten them all by himself.
Marta's interview? What, he didn't seem to be on the list. Then it shouldn't be a big deal, so it doesn't matter.
You can't blame Rorschach for not having any camaraderie with his classmates. It was just that he had seen too many different kinds of people, so he didn't have any feelings for them.
Now, although Rorschach was somewhat interested in this temporary party, he still prioritized his own mission.
"I plan to take on a hunting mission, are you guys following?"
This wasn't a suggestion, but a notice — I'm going to take on a hunting mission anyway, so it's up to you whether you want to follow or not.
"Of course we will follow you to complete the mission."
What made Rorschach surprised was that Marta directly made such an important decision without even discussing it with him.
The others also had a calm expression and didn't have any objections. Either Marta's words carried a lot of weight in the party, or they had already discussed it beforehand and had a plan to deal with this kind of situation.
Instinctively, Rorschach leaned towards the latter.
"A small party with multiple plans? Maybe it really can be used. "
Rorschach agreed in his heart, but he didn't say anything. He just looked at the map and began to look for the nearest prey.
Although it was possible to obtain the opponent's coordinates outside of the venue, most contestants wouldn't do so. After all, looking for the target was also a part of showing off their ability. Cheating in public was a bit embarrassing.
Even if they didn't care, using this kind of method on a platform to show off their ability would give people the impression that they liked to play tricks and cheat for personal gain. The loss outweighed the gain.
But Rorschach didn't hesitate to use his cheating method. On the special map, the shining dots made the onlookers smile helplessly. He didn't even bother to hide his cheating.
"Huh?!"
What astonished Roxia wasn't how close the first target was to him. Instead, it was the six blinking lights around him that were slowly encircling him.
