Chapter 137 Chapter 137 Chapter 137 (Two together...
In Pan'an, Lin Qi, who has returned to the team, is bored and "walking in the air".
Although they said they were flying in the air, they were actually practicing the new combat equipment issued by Yong Zhou: the spinner.
The number of weird creatures is increasing day by day, and they are gradually starting to develop in groups and even learning to cooperate with each other.
Some land monsters joined forces with flying aerial monsters to pollute and gather the birds of Blue Star. Relying on their air superiority, they caused many guardian teams to suffer losses.
Although humans do not have that many awakened people with the ability to fly, they do have technology.
In order to be easy to carry and flexible to use, the spinner is made very small and can be used to carry people flying by sticking it on shoes.
Of course, there are disadvantages. It is difficult to operate. Even high-level guardians with strong body control need at least one month of practice to get the hang of it.
If you want to use it to perfection, like your own pair of wings, you have to train even harder.
For example, Lynch at this moment——
With a bang, he fell heavily to the ground and pressed his broken arm back into place as usual.
The high-level awakener's super recovery ability allowed him to recover as before in just a few minutes.
Although the recovery was quick, the pain still seemed to remain.
Lynch didn't take it seriously.
As a high-level awakener, pain has always been with him. The pain of the body being torn and healed due to pollution is much deeper than the pain of a simple bone fracture.
It is also for this reason that almost all high-level awakeners are indifferent to injuries when fighting.
In the daily psychological testing of each team.
One question is:
You are fighting a monster. It takes five hours to deal with it. You can kill it without taking any damage. However, you can kill it in half an hour at the cost of losing an arm. As a fighter, which of the following options would you choose?
A: Spend five hours dealing with it and complete the mission without taking any damage.
B: Complete the task in half an hour at the cost of cutting off an arm.
C: It's okay to cut off both arms, as long as I can complete the task in ten minutes.
For team members at level five or below, 70% chose A and 30% chose B.
For team members at levels six to seven, 70% chose B and 30% chose C.
Team members above level seven will 100% choose C, cut off both arms, and compress the mission time to ten minutes.
This choice is not because the guardians care about the mission time, but simply because they don't care.
It's like an ordinary person getting a small cut on his hand. Even though other parts of his body are fine, there is still a slight pain.
But if a leg is broken, no one will notice the wound, which is so small that it is almost invisible.
For guardians above level seven, breaking one arm or two is just a "minor wound."
In theory, there's nothing wrong with this idea.
But from Yong Zhou's psychological point of view, there are serious problems.
Over time, high-level awakeners can easily fall into numbness, not caring about their bodies or their lives, and may even think that death is a relief.
The Psychology Department forces high-level Guardians to undergo psychological treatment every year, although the results are minimal.
Even Lynch, who had a relatively good mentality, didn't care about his injury and directly switched to a new topic.
"Captain Sui really plans to use the gyroscope as a recruitment test? This thing is difficult to operate. Are they not planning to recruit new members this year?"
"I thought he would want Shi Zhen to join the team. Otherwise, why would the captain still stay by the kid's side even after I've returned to the team? Is he planning to never return to Silver Cocoon and go solo to guard Shi Zhen?"
The man who was throwing darts at an almost invisible target had been ignoring him, but when he heard this, he turned around and glanced at Lynch.
His hair was jet black and styled like a wolf's tail. His eyebrows were slightly raised and he looked at Lin Qi with his handsome face without saying a word.
Lin Qi was also used to his teammates' silence: "Rong Su, what do you want to say? You can express it with your eyes."
Rong Su looked at him silently.
After two seconds, he slowly spoke:
"You're spreading rumors."
Lynch:?
"Who spread the rumor? This is just a reasonable guess!"
Rong Su looked at him silently. Although he didn't say anything, the deep distrust in his eyes made Lin Qi unable to help but explain himself.
"Really? The captain really likes that kid. A few days ago, he even asked me how I cook. He must be cooking for Shi Zhen. Let me tell you, the captain applied for the position of Watchman himself..."
When he heard the word "watchman", Rong Su's facial expression, which had been motionless until now, changed slightly.
It is indeed surprising that the captain will become the guardian of other awakened ones.
But he still didn't think that the captain would like the young man named Luo Shizhen as Lynch said.
The young man, who is also a purifier, sounds like he was born in a honey pot. After listening to Lynch's narration, he is simply a little sun.
It sounds like it has nothing to do with Team Sui.
What's more, Lin Qi is a person who talks nonsense all the time. Last time, he said that Captain Sui went to the school to be an instructor. It was probably because the vice-principal of that school was dying, and Captain Sui went to collect the body.
He swore solemnly and spoke with certainty.
As a result, now that their instructor tasks have been completed, the vice principal is still digging a hole under the school.
Lin Qi: "What's that look in your eyes? Do you think I'm someone whose words can't be trusted?"
Rong Su glanced at him and turned his head silently.
Lin Qi: “…”
A tall man sitting on the roof of a car nearby, looking into the distance, lowered his binoculars.
"The captain will be back soon. We can just ask him then."
He was also convinced. They were already grown up, not young men of eighteen or nineteen years old. How come these two people, one a chatterbox and the other a mute, could talk for a whole day when they got together?
However, he was indeed curious about Luo Shizhen.
"I've never met that little classmate before, but I heard he has a very good temper and is very tolerant of all kinds of Qi."
Seeing someone paying attention to him, Lin Qi immediately became alert:
"Yes, yes, Shi Zhen is a mutant purifier. He doesn't reject the same kind of Qi, and he's very brave. Many of my classmates have been purified by him. Even the alienated students can be forcibly brought back by him."
As he spoke, he looked at Ming Zhian in front of him with some regret.
"Unfortunately, although Shi Zhen's advancement speed is very fast, he has only been awakened for less than two years, and he is only at the seventh level now."
Ming Zhian knew what Lin Qi was regretting.
The higher the level of the awakener, the more difficult it is to remove pollution from the outside world. This is not only because of the massive amount of pollution in the body, but also because as the awakener becomes stronger, the Qi body will become more aggressive than that of a low-level awakener.
This kind of attack power can be hidden as much as possible in normal interactions, but it is different when entering the energy user's treatment area.
It was like the control station that Sui An belonged to.
Because it is too powerful, vicious incidents have occurred in the past. The sequence of manipulation and supervision is forbidden to seek treatment from energy users.
The higher the level, the more you want to be healed, you can only hope that the energy user is of the same level or higher than you.
Except for Lynch, all members of the Silver Cocoon team are at the ninth level.
Perhaps because of this reason, Lynch's mental state is better than anyone else.
Another man in combat uniform who was training not far away stopped.
There was something disembodied about his voice; it sounded more like a robot than a human.
"A Rank 7 Purifier is more suited to a team composed entirely of Rank 7 members. Coming to Silver Cocoon, four-fifths of the team members are unable to be purified. This is a waste of resources for both the Purifier and Eternal Day."
"So, this Luo Shizhen you're talking about will never join Silver Cocoon."
After saying that, he didn't need to wait for others' replies and continued to concentrate on training.
Lin Qi: "Yi Qi, what you said is not true. Shi Zhen can heal me, but that can't be considered a waste of resources. My sequence is notoriously rare. Even if my level is not as high as yours, the role I play is no less than yours."
Yi Qi: "I don't agree."
After saying that, no matter what Lynch was saying, he didn't look back.
Lynch threw a ball of paper directly over, and the ball hit Yi Qi in the face. The man who had been concentrating on training finally turned his head.
He stood up and was very tall, nearly three meters.
But if you look closely, you can see that his movements are a little slow, and even the frequency of his blinking is extremely mechanical.
Lin Qi hooked his finger at him: "Come on, fight."
Yi Qi stared at him for three seconds, then sat down again in silence and buried his head in training.
Lin Qi: “…”
Ming Zhian knew that he wanted to tease Yi Qiduo and patted Lin Qi on the shoulder.
Perhaps because he is one or two years older than the others, he is considered to be the best-tempered member of the Silver Cocoon team. Whenever his teammates have conflicting ideas, he is the one who always steps forward to mediate.
"Okay, okay, Yi Qi has said four sentences today, which is much better than usual."
Lin Qi jumped onto the roof of the car and lay down next to Ming Zhian.
"He's becoming less and less talkative. If he continues like this, he'll become the second mute on our team."
Ming Zhian handed him the hat to protect him from the sun: "It hurts to talk, it's better not to talk."
Not everyone can endure the pain in their body like Sui An and act like nothing happened.
"Just wait until the captain comes back."
Sui An is like the backbone of Yinjian, the stabilizing force. All the team members, whether they are taciturn or can't speak a few words, believe in him.
With him around, at least the atmosphere in the team is normal.
Lin Qi: "The captain is still the best. He always answers questions. If all high-level people are like you, I would rather not advance."
"In our Silver Cocoon, Rong Su is half mute and doesn't speak. Rong Su is half machine and doesn't like to talk. As for the captain, he only says harsh words. Brother Ming, you only say words of peace. The only two people who can still talk to me, Brother Zhang and Yuan Zi, have retired again. Now I am the only normal person left in the entire Silver Cocoon. When I advance, let's stop calling ourselves the Silver Cocoon and call ourselves the Silent Squad."
He closed his eyes and clasped his hands together.
Ming Zhian: "What are you doing?"
Lynch: “I’m praying.”
Pray for world peace, the death of all weird things, and Luo Shizhen to join the Silver Cocoon.
He had a feeling that everything would be different after the young Purifier joined.
At the same time, Luo Shizhen was indeed participating in the Silver Cocoon Assessment.
He is now different from before. His efforts to read books even when he is free have paid off, and he basically answered most of the cultural questions in the team assessment correctly.
He passed each test smoothly, even far surpassing other awakened people who took the test together.
Luo Shizhen didn't realize that he was already the best among his peers.
He once again entered the state of "once I start doing something, I only focus on that thing", not paying attention to the reactions of other people around him, nor looking at how many levels he had passed, he just kept rushing forward.
An awakened person who participated in the assessment recognized him.
"Is this the Purifier?"
"He is so strong."
"I heard that his combat talent is also very high. I thought it was only higher for energy users."
When Luo Shizhen was recuperating at school, Yong Zhou brought over a lunch box (polluter), and there were several people present who had been purified by him before.
After seeing him, his first reaction was to get closer. When he found out that Luo Shi was really that powerful, he worked even harder to test him.
Luo Shizhen is expected to pass.
If they also pass the assessment, won’t they be able to be on the same team with this Purifier?
Some awakened people who had never seen Luo Shizhen also sensed something from his tolerant and gentle aura after accidentally approaching him, and also participated in the assessment more diligently.
Hua Yi stared down with his blue eyes: "You Silver Cocoons are really popular. There are dozens of awakened people participating in the assessment alone."
"I just don't know whether they are here for the silver cocoon or for that classmate Luo who has the ability to purify."
Sui An was still looking lazy, lying on a recliner that he had gotten from somewhere, holding a glass of water in his hand and drinking it slowly.
His eyes never left Luo Shizhen who was running below.
"This is the Silver Cocoon test. What are you doing here?"
Hua Yi crossed his arms and said, "The assessment will be held in Yong Zhou. I can come whenever I want."
He paused for a moment, then asked casually:
"How is he?"
Sui An knew who Hua Yi was talking about without asking.
"I was heartbroken, but I feel much better now."
Hua Yi participated in the rescue and of course witnessed Luo Shizhen's grief after Chen Heyan's death.
He always wanted to visit him later, but because Luo Shizhen was recuperating, he was never able to do so. He could only piece together some information about Luo Shizhen's condition from the guardians who were sent to purify the area because of the appropriate amount of pollution.
Hua Yi glanced at the little elf on the table next to the recliner with an indescribable look.
He knew that this was Chen Heyan's spirit. After Chen Heyan's death, it first went to school and was later taken away by Sui An.
In just a few days, the little spirit's entire body gained weight, becoming more like a large piece of jelly.
Hua Yi is the next candidate for the Yong Zhou commander, so naturally he often deals with security officers and has met many spirits and wood elves.
I've never seen anyone so fat.
The spirit usually has to go on missions. It eats so much and is so fat. Can it run away when faced with the weirdness?
Hua Yi poked the little elf in disgust. The little elf, who was concentrating on eating, tilted its body. It looked up and saw a blond, blue-eyed man looking down at it. It blinked its big eyes and let out a fearful cry.
"When did you start liking raising little things like this?"
Sui An is not the type of person who likes small and cute species.
Da Huang could tell that Hua Yi was looking down on him, and he shouted in a low voice:
"Chijigugu..."
Sui An knocked away Hua Yi's hand that was poking Ling Jing.
He straightened the slightly crooked spirit and gave him another piece of gold.
"This is Shi Zhen's. He likes it very much and named it Da Huang."
Sui An calmly reminded him, "Shi Zhen raised it as his own child."
Hua Yi's expression froze. He looked at the spirit who sensed that he was not someone to be trifled with and could only crawl as far away from him as possible, feeling angry and aggrieved. He pulled the corners of his mouth with difficulty.
"Raised by Shi Zhen?"
"It's so cute."
He thought about it and took off the ring on his hand. Although the ring was mainly inlaid with gems, it also contained gold.
The ring for an adult man is not small. When placed on the little tentacle of the elf, it is like holding up a huge object.
The little elf didn't react and just hugged a big ring. It looked up at the man in front of it with a confused look. The man had blond hair, blue eyes, and a beautiful face, but was very scary and not to be messed with to it.
Hua Yi smiled at him, but the smile was a little stiff.
"It's a greeting gift for you."
rhubarb:!
It hugged the ring in disbelief, took a tentative bite, and was immediately happy when it saw that Hua Yi was not angry.
“Chichichichi!!”
After expressing his gratitude, Dahuang buried his head in chewing the ring.
It felt that it was so lovable that even such an annoying, scary, bad-tempered human man who was obviously insensitive to spirits could not resist its charm.
While Dahuang was eating heartily, his owner Luo Shizhen had to endure hardships.
After overcoming all obstacles, we finally reached the last level.
Use the spinner to fly smoothly for more than ten minutes.
If you want to control the spinner well, it not only tests your control ability, but also your core, balance, etc., and your mentality is also very important.
Because the spinner is too small, the person operating it may lose balance at the slightest disturbance. In addition, all kinds of operations are too meticulous, and if the control over the body is slightly insufficient, he may fall from a high altitude.
The spinning machine is a new device developed by Yong Zhou and has never been officially deployed in various teams, so the possibility of early practice is eliminated, which is quite fair and just.
Hua Yi frowned when he saw the spinner appear.
"This thing is not easy to operate. Aren't you afraid of filtering out Luo Shizhen?"
Sui An took a sip of water slowly and said, "I believe in his learning talent."
Hua Yi was half-believing and half-doubting.
Every time he came into contact with Luo Shizhen, he saw the image of a student with a good temper and an extremely innocent personality.
Even when completing tasks, he was extremely lukewarm.
He looks like a typical support type, but with a much better temper.
Could it be that he is actually a top student?
Hua Yi looked down and saw that Luo Shi was very cautious. He spent a long time just reading the manual of the spinner.
Then he tried to put it on, and every movement he made seemed to be extremely careful and serious, and it was obvious that he did not have much confidence in himself.
Hua Yi was originally just observing whether he had confidence, but as he watched, he became a little touched by how cute Luo Shi really was.
It was the first time he had seen Luo Shizhen like this. He pursed his lips on his fair face with a serious expression. He didn't look like he was wearing a spinner, but rather like he was defusing a bomb.
When Luo Shizhen is serious, he looks more eye-catching than when he was a student.
His Qi body also rose up, as if he was also working hard to study the gyroscope.
Hua Yi could clearly see that several young awakeners around Luo Shizhen were secretly looking at him.
These people had all been purified by Luo Shizhen. When they just occupied the position, they occupied the positions in front, behind, left and right of him without making any sound.
But Luo Shizhen didn't find any.
He was so immersed in studying the gyroscope that he didn't even notice the people around him, let alone who they were.
After putting on the spinner, Luo Shizhen placed the instruction manual neatly on the ground. Just as he was about to get up, a gust of wind blew and the instruction manual flew away for a distance.
Just as he was about to take it, several pairs of hands piled up on the instruction manual. Finally, a handsome young man with a crew cut grabbed it and handed it to him with a smile on his face.
"Thanks."
Luo Shizhen felt that everyone was quite friendly. When something was dropped, so many people helped pick it up.
The young man with a crew cut wanted to say something, but seeing that the young Purifier's attention had shifted to the gyroscope again, he could only shut up.
The preparation time was over, and with the examiner's command, everyone flew into the sky.
Soon, some guardians who were too big to control their balance fell down, and some guardians who did not have strong enough control over themselves turned headfirst in the air.
Luo Shizhen was very careful to tighten his core throughout the whole process, and he used his Qi and body together to barely keep his body still, flying slowly in the sky.
Sui An had been staring at him closely. When he saw this scene, his brows relaxed slightly and he was a little surprised.
He guessed that with Luo Shizhen's strength, he could fully control the gyroscope.
I just didn't expect that he could control it so well.
Every awakened student must learn to control muscles when going to school. This is not the kind of muscle control in the gym, but the real manipulation of each muscle in the body to follow the movement.
This is the only way to maximize the strength of your whole body during combat.
Luo Shizhen has always been excellent in this subject. Although he is slow in other aspects, he seems to be born with the ability to control his body.
When he graduates, Luo Shizhen may not be able to control the gyroscope with his strength, but Sui An believes that this is definitely one of the various training courses that Luo Shizhen has given him.
In terms of hard work, Luo Shizhen has always been far ahead of everyone else.
The experience of receiving only one point of feedback out of ten points from childhood to university, or even no feedback at all, made him accustomed to hard work early on.
Luo Shizhen now looks more relaxed than Sui An originally imagined.
This was very unexpected. Sui An had led many team members and many guardians. He could give a training plan and predict how the other party would develop at each stage just by taking a look at their strength.
This was the first time that someone had far exceeded his expectations and was even stronger than Sui An had imagined.
Luo Shizhen became more and more proficient in controlling his body to fly.
He himself did not realize that his control over his body had reached a terrifying level, and he could easily control even a small muscle.
As he flew up, he had a feeling of déjà vu.
It was as if I had flown like this many times before, roaming in the sky and the earth, looking down from above.
He looked at the figures below. Because they were high in the sky, these people looked very small.
This scene also seems a bit familiar.
It seemed like he had done that before.
Moreover, the body began to swallow saliva instinctively, which was a completely instinctive reaction that linked "flying high" with "eating".
But this seems normal, because you are at high altitude, so you can see everyone and of course you can choose the most delicious food.
For example, the one flying to his left has too little pollution in its body, just like one or two bean sprouts, not even enough to fill the gaps between teeth.
For example, the one on the right has a little more, just like stir-fried bok choy, but it’s a pity that it’s not very filling.
Luo Shizhen's gaze gradually moved away, and he picked at everyone one by one, and finally, it fell on Sui An.
At this moment, he seemed to be able to see the hidden polluting aura, as thick as black fog, almost enveloping Sui An.
From a distance, it even looks a little scary.
But Luo Shizhen was not affected at all.
He just stared at the vast black fog, licked his lips and swallowed his saliva.
Teacher Sui is so amazing. Everyone else has all kinds of dishes, but Teacher Sui herself is like a banquet.
In my mind, all kinds of delicious dishes floated through my mind like a buffet.
One guardian after another fell from the sky, and before they knew it, only Luo Shizhen was left above.
He stood in free flight, looking like a free bird or like the sun shining brightly, attracting the attention of everyone below.
Sui An stood up unconsciously.
Examiner: "Time's up!"
Luo Shizhen flew down immediately. He did not pick up the spinner first, but flew downwards like a bird with wings.
Hua Yi subconsciously spread his arms, but saw the young man flying towards Sui An very naturally, and with the momentum brought by the spinner, he fell into his arms.
The spinner has plenty of power, and the momentum is enough to propel an adult several meters away.
"Teacher Sui! I passed!!"
The young Purifier happily announced the good news and took the opportunity to smell his fragrance.
Secretly picking up the little bit of dirt that overflowed from Teacher Sui's body and swallowing it.
He knew the rules of Yong Zhou. As an energy user, he could not purify and manipulate the prison, as it was easy for something to go wrong.
In the past, Luo Shizhen would definitely be honest and obedient, but now, he has grown up and learned to eat secretly.
Sui An stretched out his hand to protect Luo Shizhen's waist, and without moving his body, he caught him steadily.
Hua Yi lowered his arms slightly stiffly.
"I see, you did a great job."
He looked at the young Purifier who flew over excitedly, surpassing him at the first moment, and smiled and touched Luo Shizhen's cheek.
"Welcome to Silver Cocoon."
