Chapter 104: Each with His Own Thoughts

Ge Xihe walked towards the shadows, wanting to see who was talking to him.

But he had only taken one or two steps, and before he could see clearly, the other party suddenly stood up, grabbed the railing next to him, turned over and jumped down.

Ge Xihe hurried over, holding the railing and looking down, but he only saw the drizzle of rain and snow floating in the night sky, and various debris only showed shadows of varying depths, and the person who spoke had disappeared.

Is he a plot NPC, or another candidate who has some key clues and is testing him?

As for the thought that flashed through his mind, which was that he was concerned about Sikong Tan's whereabouts, Ge Xihe didn't care too much about it.

Of course he was worried about Sikong Tan, but he believed more in Sikong Tan's ability.

Will not be caught easily.

It was hard to tell whether it was true trust or self-consolation. Ge Xihe stood at the railing and looked down for a while, then turned around and left with a sense of loss.

Lin Guantang saw him leave from the surveillance camera, but did not turn off the camera. Instead, he continued to use the surrounding surveillance cameras to look for the man's whereabouts.

Unfortunately, nothing was found. The other party never appeared on the surveillance camera again. Only the thermal imaging showed that someone was moving in the blind corner of the surveillance camera, which was obviously an attempt to avoid surveillance.

Actually, this is normal. In this assessment, many people were drawn to play the villain role. Of course, they had to hide from the surveillance cameras, but the problem was -

Lin Guantang always felt that this mysterious figure was not hiding from the "surveillance in the town" in the simulated scene, but from the surveillance in the entire examination room.

But it is also possible that he made an error in judgment.

After all, it was only a few minutes, and what he said was consistent with the warning. If he told others about his guess, he might be suspected of thinking too much.

but--

Anyway, marking one more person is just a matter of giving one more instruction to the system.

Lin Guantang casually opened another secret permission, and a dim closed eye-shaped mark immediately appeared on the figure who was avoiding the surveillance. As [Confirm] was turned on, the closed eye opened and emitted a green fluorescence on the system map.

Since the students taking their final exams were asked to come and do a large-scale role-playing test, of course the clothes and accessories they should wear were prepared in advance.

An extra layer of tracking marks has been made on these clothing items in advance to prevent various accidents that may cause people to go missing so that they can be tracked immediately.

According to Huo Shizhen, this was part of the extra precautions and was not told to the candidates. As for whether they knew about it or had the intention to find out, that was another matter.

At this moment, seeing this mark appear on the shadow and the tracking status successfully activated, Lin Guantang breathed a sigh of relief. At least this person was wearing the uniform issued by the military academy. Theoretically, he should be a military academy student.

After turning an unknown number of corners, it finally revealed its true form a few streets away. As expected, it was compared to a military cadet—

No matter how you look at it, it's a pretty ordinary profile. The character you picked is [Member of the Mysterious Research Lab]

So I really did draw the villain role, and I was able to imitate the villain and avoid the surveillance cameras.

Lin Guantang clicked his tongue. After confirming the other party's identity, he felt relieved, but he didn't plan to turn off the tracking. He just put it aside for the time being.

Then continue with the boring surveillance business.

It’s not that boring actually—

Lin Guantang opened several surveillance cameras simultaneously, pulled out the S4 surveillance footage of the people in the group who were taking the exam, and then enjoyed their performance.

Just treat it as watching a TV series.

As for the other people in the group——

Huo Shizhen ran away under the pretext of a mission, and Sikong Tan was even more elusive. Whether he could be contacted normally was entirely a matter of luck, and of course he would not participate in this final exam.

The full name of this final exam should be "Central Military Academy's Final Semester Additional Task Simulation Comprehensive Test."

Simply put, this trial is an additional option. You can participate or not, but the prerequisite for not participating is that you have to complete all the credits in normal courses to barely keep the credits required for normal graduation.

For Huo Shizhen and Sikong Tan, there is no need to worry about this at all.

As for Yin Zhiyou, he did participate in this final exam, but his task was also to invigilate the exam - it could also be called off-site rescue.

Unlike Lin Guantang who sat in the room to monitor remotely, his task was to lead others to deal with accidents and clear the examination room.

For example, if someone is [killed], or accidentally injured or sick and unable to continue the exam, someone needs to be responsible for handling the aftermath.

Considering that almost all the people in charge of this task are members of the executive department, Lin Guantang couldn't help but sigh again -

Even during the final exams, we are responsible for the cleanup and finishing work. The saying that the executive department is good at finishing is becoming more and more valuable.

In short, after this analysis, only freshmen S4 can be said to have actually participated in this mock exam.

As for the identities and camps they were drawn into—

Jian Yinglai is an official responsible for investigating the anomalies in the city;

Shao Qingbai is an experimental subject locked in a secret room;

Wen Tiange is the villain responsible for recovering the "Aconitum Root";

Tian Ye is an ordinary townsperson.

I really don’t know if it was a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement by the system, but the four S-level characters were drawn into four different camps.

Lin Guantang knew about the good things the four of them had done in the trials before school started, so he had a vague worry from the beginning.

These four people will not act recklessly again, targeting each other with all sorts of ulterior motives, making it impossible for anyone to win, and finally ending up blowing up the entire town.

Obviously, Huo Shizhen also took this into special consideration. After everything was ready, he checked again the various dangerous items that had been arranged.

It is confirmed that even if all bombs, including items that can be made into explosives, are added together, they can only blow up half of the town at most.

And they are all smoke bombs, and they don't have much killing power.

So nothing should happen...right?

Lin Guantang looked at the surveillance footage.

The first thing that comes into view is Wen Tiange and his friends.

It was in a gloomy little house.

Wen Tiange: "Go find Jian Yinglai. He has bad intentions. Since he's not on the same side as us, he must be a bad guy. Let's kill him first."

Accomplice A: "But it seems like we're the villains, and the mission says we can't provoke official personnel."

Wen Tiange: ...

Wen Tiange corrected the wording in time:

"Anyway, this guy is bound to ruin our plans. We must find him and mark him first."

Wen Tiange said again:

"And that Shao Qingbai, hehe, since I'm the villain this time, don't blame me for messing with you. Find out where he is and see how I can make him cry."

Accomplice B raised his hand to remind him again, stopping him from abusing his power for personal gain:

"But isn't our mission to find that Aconitum? It doesn't seem to involve killing people."

Wen Tiange: ...

Lin Guantang and Wen Tiange in the picture fell silent at the same time.

Then Wen Tiange got angry and said, "I'm already a villain, so what if I kill someone?"

——

There's no saving it, just bury it.

Lin Guantang looked at the surveillance footage of the next person with some worry.

It was in a dark and cold basement.

Shao Qingbai looked at the vertical iron rod in front of him with disdain:

"You think you can lock this little secret room? I'm going to kick this broken door and lock open."

Companion 1 quickly stopped him:

"Wait, wait, wait. The mission description says we're locked up as experimental subjects, forced to take medication and injections to participate in experiments. This has left us feeling weak and in excruciating pain. Theoretically, we shouldn't have the strength to kick down the door. We're here to wait for rescue and find a way to get information out."

Shao Qingbai starts warming up:

"I took the wrong medicine and got mutated, didn't I? What experiment? A werewolf experiment? Since I turned into a werewolf, shouldn't my strength increase greatly? And I can also transmit information. If I go out, I can transmit information."

I am speechless!

I didn't expect that he would have such a clear mind one day.

While others were still struggling, Shao Qingbai kicked the door wall made of several iron bars.

There was only a loud clang, and the slender iron rod was severely deformed by the kick, so it was no problem for one person to get out.

Easy and perfect goal.

Shao Qingbai flicked his tongue at the others and walked out of the kicked-out passage triumphantly.

Then alarms started beeping all over the basement.

Then clouds of mist drifted away and filled the entire space in less than a minute.

Those who were forced to inhale the mist all felt weak all over, especially Shao Qingbai who was at the front. He felt dizzy and lost consciousness before he could react.

"This fog is... poisonous..."

Before Shao Qingbai could say a word, he fell to the ground unconscious, and the other prisoners also fell into a coma.

In a few minutes, people wearing white lab coats and masks came in and carried them back to the room with swift movements.

When he left, he didn't forget to kick the severely deformed iron rod back in another direction.

Although the iron rod was bent from being kicked back and forth, it still could be used.

Save where you can and spend where you can. It's just a prop. It's enough to be able to see that it's a prison door and window.

Lin Guantang couldn't bear to watch what was happening in the surveillance video, and then looked at the screen where Jian Yinglai was with hope.

Jian Yinglai is an elegant gentleman, and I don't think he would do what the previous two people did, which is to sacrifice public interests for personal gain.

As expected, even the meeting place was in a luxurious hall with bright windows and clean tables. Everyone was dressed appropriately, like elegant aristocrats on a trip.

After an elegant conversation, Jian Yinglai smiled slightly under Lin Guantang's expectant gaze and began to speak:

"S-class are the biggest threat, especially Wen Tiange and Shao Qingbai. The former is cunning and not in the same camp as us, so he will definitely come to steal intelligence and is definitely not a good person. The latter is strong but brainless. Even an ordinary villager will be infected and turned into a werewolf, and will not be a good person. So if the two of them show up, they will be killed in seconds. Remember that."

A member raised his hand and asked, "What about the other S? Should he pay special attention to it?"

Jian Yinglai: "Who?"

...Don't just ignore someone just because he's honest!

Lin Guantang covered his fragile little heart, and as others said Tian Ye's name, he simultaneously cut the scene to Tian Ye, the honest man who had been forgotten by everyone.

As an ordinary villager, Tian Ye was sitting quietly in the crowd at this moment, listening carefully to the mayor's speech, without any intention of causing trouble.

That’s great, it turns out there are still normal people in the S-level of the Central Military Academy.

Being forgotten is simply because normal people and psychopaths can't get along.

Lin Guantang was so moved that he wanted to cry.

But it only lasted three minutes.

After the mayor gave his speech on how to guard the werewolves and humans who were about to mutate, and how to defend the town, he began to let the people use their imagination freely and express their opinions.

Tian Ye stood up actively. Due to his S-level awareness, he bravely took on the responsibility of protecting the town.

"Lure all the werewolves together, then round up the infected humans and plant explosives."

Tian Ye clenched his fists and said confidently:

"Leave this to me. Hand-rolling explosives is my forte. Don't worry, even if I can't defeat those werewolves, I can still blow them up. Not to mention the werewolves, I wouldn't be afraid even if the Wolf King came."

It’s better to be a little afraid.

The other sects quickly advised him to calm down, saying that this trump card trick could not be used for the time being.

I know you are here to protect the safety of the townspeople, but don't do that yet.

Because the result of guarding is likely to be——

The residents are alive, but the town is gone.

It is also possible that the residents were not killed or infected by the werewolves, but were blown to ashes along with the entire city.

Lin Guantang was also frightened and woke up. Honest people should not be underestimated!

He hurriedly and urgently counted the number of various weapons in the examination room, mainly explosives and those related to the production of explosives.

The result of the test ending with the entire examination room being blown up—

It was enough for Huo Shizhen to enjoy it once, he had no intention of experiencing it himself.
