Jiang Chu woke up to find that the world had collapsed.
A doomsday crisis, a biochemical apocalypse.
When Jiang Chu saw an old man walking a bird confronting zombies with military brass...
Luo Xiaonan and Luo Xiaobei, the two sisters, both inherited their father's strong genes, and Luo Feng even felt that they might surpass him.
Luo Xiaonan skipped a grade in high school to take the college entrance examination and subsequently became the top scorer in the college entrance examination at No. 4 High School.
Luo Xiaobei, who is one year younger than her older sister, started school a year earlier and later became the top scorer in the college entrance examination at Xinhua Road.
Hearing Jiang Chu's compliments, Luo Xiaobei felt a little embarrassed.
After all, she often belittled Jiang Chu.
Of course, as she said, she had no ill intentions; she just hoped that Jiang Chu would work harder and become stronger.
Jiang Chu was indeed very hardworking, but his talent was simply too limited.
This world is indeed unfair at times; talent always determines the upper limit.
Jiang Chu stepped into the force measuring instrument again.
At this moment, Luo Xiaobei also had to take Jiang Chu seriously.
However, she felt that even if Jiang Chu's strength improved, he would only reach a maximum of 300 battles.
"Sister, has he gone to the recruitment office to test his combat strength yet?" Luo Xiaobei asked.
During the period between the end of the college entrance examination and the time when candidates go to the conscription office to test their combat strength, many candidates will take advantage of a loophole: they will take the test a few hours before the end of the last day of the combat strength test, in order to use this time to cram for the test.
After all, their overall performance will be uploaded to the national education website after the test, serving as the final college entrance examination scores for graduating students.
Luo Xiaobei asked this because she was concerned about Jiang Chu.
"Not yet, let's exploit the bug!" Luo Xiaonan said, just as she did last year.
However, unlike this year, there were not as many conscription offices last year, and Luo Xiaonan almost missed the deadline last year.
This year, there are over a thousand conscription offices throughout Tianzhou, so there will be no overcrowding.
"That's good. Let's take him to the wilderness area for some training these next couple of days!" Luo Xiaobei said.
“Okay, but let him try virtual combat first. He definitely can’t go into battle directly; the psychological pressure would be too much!” Luo Xiaonan said.
"OK!"
While the two sisters were talking, Jiang Chu had already completed the strength test.
When Jiang Chu's combat strength was displayed on the screen, Luo Xiaobei felt like his eyeballs were about to explode!
"Intelligence 110, vision 171? Overall combat strength 383? Jiang Chu, you...you're too abnormal?" The little girl screamed in fright, as if she had encountered a monster.
Jiang Chu said calmly, "You're actually not bad either."
"Get lost! You're so annoying!" Luo Xiaobei tossed her braid and said angrily, "Come out with me later, I'll take you to some virtual combat!"
Luo Feng couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Jiang Chu was indeed very considerate of the little girl, not letting her test her combat strength first, otherwise the little girl would have lost all face.
...
Baiyun Road, Northern Virtual Combat Arena.
This is a four-story rectangular building.
Jiang Chu clearly remembered that in her previous life, this place was an internet cafe called Northern Internet Cafe.
But in this life, this place has become a virtual combat arena.
Just as Jiang Chu was about to walk in with the two beautiful women, he was stopped by a heavily armed soldier at the door.
"Excuse me, please cooperate!" the soldier said, pointing to something that looked like a force gauge in front of him.
This is a rapid force measuring instrument; it can produce results after a person stands on it for three seconds.
This is the rule of the virtual combat arena; anyone whose overall combat strength is less than 300 is not allowed to enter.
In addition, in terms of single data requirements, intelligence must exceed 100, otherwise it will not be able to withstand the astonishing mental pressure brought about by virtual combat.
Jiang Chu had previously searched for these things using a search engine.
Jiang Chu and the other two all passed the test and entered smoothly.
Upon arriving at the front desk, Luo Xiaonan greeted the receptionist and then asked, "How many KP will we get for three hours?"
"It'll be 1500 KP in total," the receptionist said.
"..." Jiang Chu gasped.
1 KP equals 10 dollars, so 1500 KP is 15,000 dollars! Three people playing for three hours, that's robbery!
Why is this virtual combat so expensive?
Speechless, Jiang Chu was now filled with curiosity about virtual combat.
Luo Xiaonan didn't even take out her phone; she made the payment directly using her fingerprint.
Then, a waiter in military uniform led the group to the second floor.
The second floor of the virtual combat arena consists of small rooms, each with excellent soundproofing. Upon entering, Jiang Chu saw a huge television screen, as well as various weapons and equipment.
"Please select your weapons and equipment!" the waiter said. "Once you've chosen, go to the changing room to put them on, and then we'll get ready to begin!"
"Yes!" everyone responded.
The waiter went out.
At this moment, Luo Xiaonan said to Jiang Chu, "Get your main weapon, secondary weapon, melee weapon, helmet, armor, combat boots, and tactical backpack. Then go to the changing room over there and change. Then we'll get ready to begin."
“Okay!” Jiang Chu nodded, then turned his gaze to the equipment on both sides of the room.
After observing for a while, he walked without hesitation toward a very common weapon...
