113 is the serial number of this brain-like system.
It grew exceptionally fast and was already mature, its surface gleaming with a glossy color, lying quietly in a capsule-shaped culture jar.
"Next, name Xia Er, 21 years old, male." Dean of Students Fu Shu called out the name, and the tall, big boy then walked into the room.
The room was very clean, with nothing else besides a table and a capsule container.
A standing area was marked off on the ground with stickers.
Xia Er walked over and stood still. Following Fu Shu's instructions, he slowly extended his hand and placed it on the culture tank.
It's that simple. In just a few seconds, the No. 113 brain-like system can determine the test subject's reaction speed, thinking ability, and the activity level of the grid-like neurons.
This is the most basic requirement to become an operator.
However, this most basic requirement eliminates almost the entire population.
Fu Shu has been here for over an hour, but has not yet met a single person who meets her requirements.
She only saw students walk in one by one, and then walk out with expressions of disappointment and bewilderment.
Although she was the dean of students, she didn't quite understand what kind of people could pass the test. These were things that only the researchers knew. Those she thought were perfectly capable were eliminated in seconds, while those she thought were not good enough were rejected for a long time.
There is a public screen at the back of the classroom that only displays "Allow" or "No".
Fu Shu had never met "Yun" before.
This shows how difficult it is to pass the level.
Red light, it's red light again.
In just three seconds, a word was reflected on the classroom glass. Xia Er paused for a moment, then quickly lowered his head and pursed his lips.
"Don't be discouraged, keep going, next one."
The head of student affairs offered a word of comfort and then recruited a short boy.
"Hello, Director!" The boy had a round face and was quite cute. He looked very young and had the appearance of a high school student.
She flipped through the information: "Zhu Yibai, freshman, male."
"Yes, Director, that's my name. What's next?"
Zhu Yibai is quite lively, has a cute smile, and gives off a boy-next-door vibe.
"You can stand here... Yes, you don't need to move forward. Okay, put your hands on it."
"oh oh."
Zhu Yibai placed his hand on the cold jar, but he felt nothing.
Furthermore, number 113 seemed to have no response at all, so long that Fu Shu looked up at the screen with some confusion, thinking that the connection had failed or broken.
Two minutes later.
As the fluorescent green text appeared, Fu Shu slightly opened her mouth, her eyes filled with surprise.
The first person to pass!
He turned out to be a freshman with a very youthful face.
"What's going on? Does this mean it's approved?"
"Yes...yes." The head of the teaching department quickly lowered his head and put a checkmark next to his name.
When she looked up again, she instructed, "Pack your own things, keep your personal belongings as simple as possible. Go to Kyoto first, and then accept the arrangements. Everything you need is available there. There will be a shuttle bus on campus at eight o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Haha, thank you, teacher."
Zhu Yibai probably didn't expect this either. He looked excited and ran out immediately after speaking, probably to show off to his classmates.
Immediately, the dean of students heard cheerful cheers outside the door. The students in line began to look around, whispering among themselves, their eyes filled with envy as they looked at the freshman.
······
After shouting for a whole morning, her voice was almost hoarse. Then another teacher came to help Fu Shu with her work.
"Next."
A girl with an extremely pure and unforgettable appearance, wearing a gray wool sweater, a fluffy skirt, and knee-high boots, walked in.
"Luo Xiaoli, a freshman, female."
"exist."
"Stand here."
Luo Xiaoli obediently extended her hand, took a step, and entered the classroom.
But something completely unexpected happened!
She had just entered the bright classroom, the windows were clean and the desks were spotless, and a sparrow flew by outside.
A single word lit up on the screen: "Granted!"
The teacher who was cooperating looked bewildered and, in a moment of stunned silence, glanced at Fu Shu.
"What's going on?"
"Wait a minute, let me check. It might be a problem with the screen connection."
She got up to check, and after a while, a questioning voice came out, "There's nothing wrong with this, it fits perfectly."
A hint of surprise appeared on Luo Xiaoli's beautiful face.
Fu Shu tilted her head and walked over, placing her hand on the culture jar.
"no."
She moved away.
"allow."
What exactly happened?
The teacher's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.
After a long while, the two of them fixed their gazes on Luo Xiaoli. Ever since she walked in, something unusual had happened.
"Excuse me, could you please step out for a moment?"
"good."
Luo Xiaoli didn't know what had happened, and she left the room on her own.
The screen immediately returned to normal.
An unbelievable yet undeniable fact has emerged.
This girl named Luo Xiaoli passed the test effortlessly, without needing to go through any tests.
Fu Shu made a direct call to her superiors and received a response within minutes.
The testing scope of brain-like devices is actually very large, enough to cover an entire room. In fact, the calculation begins the moment the test subject walks in.
However, in order to make it easier for the teacher to record, No. 113 had no choice but to provide the answer after going through the steps.
Luo Xiaoli passed the test successfully. She was told that she would be taken to Kyoto by private car at 8:00 AM tomorrow. She is the second person to pass after Zhu Xiaobai, which is great news.
Even she herself couldn't have imagined it.
There are deeper reasons behind this.
Number 113 is a copy of Root 4, the first brain-like being that once carried humanity's hopes to the dimension of death.
Number 4 was born from that woman.
Here we need to discuss a very important issue.
Besides those basic conditions, there are some hidden things that Jiang Cheng didn't mention.
That is the more important "affinity" after passing this round of tests.
The affinity between the brain-like mech and its operator!
Only a high enough level of affinity can guarantee excellent teamwork in future battles!
As for Luo Xiaoli, she is Youmei's daughter, and in this respect, no one can surpass her.
