The branch manager's roar came from the headset of the branch manager. "F * ck, what the f * ck are you trying to do? Do you know what the ancient agreement is? Do you know what that dark silver-purple thorn emblem represents? Hurry up and take the test … "
On the other side.
In the monitoring room, the intelligence personnel of the branch had already pulled out documents and found out the origins of the 'ancient agreement' and the 'dark silver-purple thorn emblem'.
They immediately broke out in a cold sweat. According to the black market's records, this involved a very ancient and powerful force.
This force had always been very mysterious. After the Mechanical Throne was established and the continent's order was established, it disappeared without a trace.
No one knew if this mysterious force still had the strength of the past.
However, as long as they had one percent of their strength left, it would not be a problem to destroy the black market branch here.
"Gentlemen, this way please!"
The branch manager hurriedly smiled and led the way, not daring to say anything else.
They came to a spacious hall with a stone door in the depths. That was where the first test would take place.
"Excuse me. Gentlemen, who will take the test this time? Or both of you? "
There were two tests for the black market executive. The first one was held in the branch building. The limit was five people, but one could also take the test alone.
The test criteria were very simple. As long as one passed without any casualties, one would pass.
Hayashi River looked at Hou, who bowed slightly and walked toward the stone door.
"So confident!"
The branch manager wanted to say something, but he sneered inwardly and did not speak in the end.
The first test was not difficult, but it was not easy either.
Behind the stone door was a drill ground. It was extremely difficult for a single person under level four. It was not the death rate, but the disability rate.
There were all kinds of traps in the drill ground. Under level four, even if the individual's combat power was outstanding, it was inevitable that they would fall into the traps.
For this test, it was best to be a team of three or five people who worked well together. There was a high chance of passing safely.
Seeing Hayashi River so confident, the branch manager did not bother to remind him. If something happened, it was their own bad luck.
Hayashi River sat there with a calm expression, as if he was not worried at all.
He did not look sideways. In fact, he had already used his mental energy to scan the black market branch's terrain and transmitted it to Mossy Bone through the sensor goggles for analysis.
This was just in case. If they really had a falling out with the black market branch, they would be able to retreat unscathed.
"Where did this Purple Thorn Emblem come from?" Hayashi River asked Mossy Bone.
"It used to be one of the legendary armies on the continent. A long time ago, they were all wiped out in a secret war," Mossy Bones replied.
Moss Bone's tone was a little off, but Hayashi River didn't ask further.
Creak!
At that moment, the stone door opened, and Dusk walked out. The protective suit on his body was full of holes, but not a single spot was bleeding. He seemed to be unharmed.
However, there was a sharp murderous aura coming from the Suan Ni's body. It was so strong that it was suffocating.
Completion time: 15 minutes 23 seconds.
"Passed … passed … in less than 20 minutes …" The branch executive's eyes almost popped out.
It wasn't that there weren't people below level four who passed the test alone, but there weren't many who came out unscathed like Tian, and within 20 minutes at that.
In the monitoring room, it was a mess. The intelligence personnel of the branch were all analyzing the assessment. Denglong's performance made them suck in a cold breath.
In the training field, Denglong had taken a straight path, which looked like a suicidal move.
That was because in this trial, taking a straight path was the most dangerous.
However, Denglong's body was terrifyingly strong. Be it slashes, gunshots, or collisions … none of them could injure him. He only tore the protective suit.
"[Activated Body] is really powerful …"
Hayashi River also sighed. Denglong's body was not as simple as being able to recover quickly. The ability of Living Body could also instantly increase the strength of all aspects of the body.
The training method for this ability had long been lost, but Mossy Bone knew it very well.
Over the past week, Denglong had been undergoing special training to activate the ability of Living Body.
His current strength was far beyond what it had been when he was controlled by the Black Net.
Today was Denglong's first actual battle. Hayashi River was very satisfied.
In terms of individual strength, there was definitely a gap between Denglong and a level four powerhouse.
However, as long as Denglong was adequately armed, with Living Body and his endurance in combat, he could probably wipe out an armed force. He was comparable to a level four powerhouse.
"Is this enough?" Hayashi River asked.
"Of course." The branch executive wiped off his cold sweat and smiled apologetically.
"What about the second trial?" Hayashi River asked again.
The branch executive held the holographic screen and said, "The second trial will not be conducted in the branch. You also know what the responsibilities of the Black Market Executive are. Therefore, you need to complete a high-level mission before you can officially become a Black Market Executive. "
Hayashi River nodded in agreement.
This test was actually the final round of the black market deacon assessment, the actual combat test.
"Sir, you can choose any of these high-level missions."
Browsing through the holographic screen, Hayashi River scanned through the list of missions. He even saw a bounty for Ling's whereabouts, and the bounty was very high.
There was a bounty for Denglong's whereabouts, and the sender was anonymous. It was most likely from the Sea-Ao Empire's Black Net organization.
There was also a bounty for the whereabouts of the Legendary Mechanic Master Norbelin. It was the highest bounty among the high-level missions …
"I just need to reveal one of my identities, and I'll complete the mission …"
Hayashi River mumbled to himself. Looking at the dense list of missions, he had difficulty choosing. He really did not know which one to choose.
"Your Excellency Mossy Bone, please choose. It would be best if it's related to the Black Net organization and the Dragoncroc Tribe … "Hayashi River contacted Mossy Bone.
Swoosh …
A moment later, an image appeared in the goggles. Mossy Bone had already selected the high-level missions.
"Huwan Lake City …"
Hayashi River chose a mission. The location was Huwan Lake City. It was to rescue the black market members who were detained by a group of thugs.
"What does this mission have to do with the Black Net organization and the Dragoncroc Tribe?" Hayashi River asked.
"It has nothing to do with the Black Net organization. Among the detained black market members, I found that there are opponents of the Dragoncroc Tribe," Mossy Bone replied.
"That's it then." Hayashi River made up his mind.
"Why this? Huwan Lake City is quite a distance from the mechanical hive. "
Mossy Bone did not understand. Some of the high-level missions that he had selected were near the mechanical hive, which was very convenient.
Of course, the mission to rescue the black market members was quite difficult. If it was completed successfully, the black market would pay more attention to it.
"In a few days, I'll accompany my teacher to Huwan Lake City. It's on the way," Hayashi River said.
Mossy Bone was speechless. Only then did he remember that the other identity of this young man was a mechanic.
"I'll take this one."
Hayashi River selected the mission and left with Dusk.
In the monitoring room, the person in charge of the branch gave an order for the intelligence personnel to follow up and evaluate the entire process, recording the armed forces that this future deacon had.
…
The next day.
Early morning.
Fireblade Machinery Workshop. Many interns stood in the field in front of the building.
These people looked at the door and the time from time to time. Their faces were a little red, and their expressions were both expectant and excited.
At the door, Hayashi River walked in and was immediately surrounded by a group of students.
"Senior Chuan. Take me with you this time. "
"Teacher Chuan, there's an extra spot. I'm begging you to bring me along for the extra spot. "
The crowd crowded around him, begging him. These mechanics cast aside their usual aloof attitude, and their mouths seemed to be smeared with honey.
After joining the Fireblade Workshop for nearly three months, this group of mechanics had long changed the way they addressed Hayashi River. From the beginning, they called him by his name, to 'Student Lin', and then 'Senior Chuan'. Recently, they even had the tendency to upgrade to 'Teacher Chuan'.
Last week, Huwan Lake City's munitions factory had sent an invitation letter, inviting the Fireblade Workshop's mechanics to create a two-star Heart Origin Equipment Set.
With such an opportunity, let alone interns, even mechanics who had been in the workshop for two or three years would try their best to squeeze their way in.
This time, the deputy workshop master, Master Barce, had specially approved that Hayashi River could have one more companion as an assistant.
When the news spread last night, this group of interns was envious. They were waiting for Hayashi River to come to work, and with his performance, they wanted to obtain this spot.
Outside the crowd, Bamboo Pole stood there, a little reserved. It was not that he did not want to squeeze in, but his body was too thin, and he was squeezed out a few times.
However, Bamboo Pole still had some confidence. After all, he had been Senior Chuan's assistant for two months. Of course he would bring him along, and it would be easy to use him, right?
