Failure of awakening was a very common occurrence in the early years.
At that time, the Federation's various technologies were immature, and the exploration of mental power was at the stage of feeling its way across the river. Fortunately, a group of scientists took the lead and cooperated with a group of soldiers who volunteered to be volunteers. Five years ago, they successfully developed the X504 special potion, commonly known as the awakening potion.
After that, awakening failure becomes a low-probability event.
But no matter how small the probability is, failure still happens every year. Compared with this, General Qin is more shocked that the girl who failed and fell to F level can still exert the strength of D level or even close to C level.
Even Qin Yuan focused his attention a little, his eyes no longer as empty as duckweed, but looked straight at the training ground not far away.
Seeing their interested expressions, the counselor immediately worked even harder: "That girl has a very unique physique. She can quickly recover her mental strength and seems to have the talent to become a healer..."
"A therapist? That's a good place to go."
General Qin nodded, but his expression was somewhat disapproving.
The status of therapists in the Federation is really not high. In the eyes of a legion general like him, they are no different from ordinary logistics soldiers.
"It's just a pity." General Qin pondered for a moment, then couldn't help but gasp in amazement. "Quick recovery... a very strong spiritual power trait."
Why did the awakening fail?
The counselor smiled bitterly: "Who said it wasn't?"
While the two were talking, the timer on the training ground ticked rapidly and soon reached 25 minutes.
This is a watershed moment.
Being able to hold on until this time, the two people in the training ground must have reached the final stage.
Qin Yuan looked at the timer quietly, and ripples gradually appeared in his heart.
Three years ago, he had single-handedly cleared every test here, including the two-player mode. The shudder of battle in his memory washed over him, and the young man subconsciously clenched his right hand, causing the purple veins on the back of his hand to bulge slightly.
If the school's training room hadn't changed, he remembered the last level would be...
Inside the training ground.
Gu Qiongsheng and Zhou Qing, who finally reached the final round, gasped at the scene in front of them.
Surrounded by numerous giant bladeworms and brain flowerworms in the center is a new species of Zerg that is half a person's height.
Its entire body was dark blue, but it quickly turned translucent after the energy circulated. Its body was as soft as mud, and it quickly blended into the environment the moment the test began. It was very clever and extremely difficult to detect.
Its attack power is also very special. It can emit a powerful electromagnetic wave, accurately destroying all machines currently developed by humans, and directly attack the soldier's brain.
It is the absolute core of the Zerg battle team, the mortal enemy on the interstellar battlefield, and the key to defeating the Zerg army.
Silent bug.
Ten years ago, he was the culprit who caused the annihilation of 100,000 Federation starships and the death of millions of soldiers.
As soon as they appeared, Gu Qiongsheng and Zhou Qing felt a stabbing pain in their brains like needles.
They hurriedly used their mental strength to protect their heads, but the sharp sense of crisis still lingered for a long time, as if a sharp knife was hanging above their heads, which could cut off at any time!
Zhou Qing, already exhausted, felt a little flustered. She subconsciously turned to look at Gu Qiongsheng: "Sister Qiongsheng, should we... continue fighting?"
Gu Qiongsheng frowned slightly.
For this clearance, she had deliberately saved up her chance to level up to LV4 so she could restore her mana bar during the process. However, the advanced training ground in two-player mode was not to be underestimated. Even after restoring her mana bar twice, it was only halfway there.
Gu Qiongsheng's eyes quickly scanned the system panel, pondering a way out. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the system prompt, pausing for a moment on the "Remaining Skill Points: 3," her gaze suddenly fixed.
I almost forgot, you can learn new skills at 3 o'clock!
She quickly opened the system skill tree, followed the "Minor Healing Technique·Explosion" upwards, and quickly locked onto a branch.
[Skill: Healing Flash]
[Skill Effect: Light points are emitted from the caster, ricocheting between the five teammates with the lowest HP/Stamina, and continuously recovering at 100 HP/s. During this time, if the light points pass through an enemy, they will cause penetrating damage. Attack damage: 500 points. Duration: 1 minute.]
A group healing skill that continuously restores health!
It can also deal damage!
Gu Qiongsheng made a quick decision: "Learn!"
[Beep, skill "Healing Flash" has been learned]
[Skill Quality: Ordinary]
[Proficiency required to improve: 0/1000]
The light shines brightly!
Zhou Qing only felt her body tremble, as if something bounced from behind and penetrated into her body.
It was a warm and healing current, different from the previous fiery energy. This power slowly wandered through her body, unexpectedly long-lasting, gradually nourishing her exhausted meridians.
The exhausted spiritual strength is also slowly recovering, like the ice and snow melting in spring, the gurgling mountain stream flows happily in the forest, moistening the land and nourishing all things.
How amazing... She looked up in surprise.
Gu Qiongsheng winked at her.
"continue?"
Zhou Qing took a deep breath: "Continue!"
The two men were full of energy and rushed towards the bugs again.
Zhou Qing couldn't see it, but Gu Qiongsheng clearly saw the light bouncing off her body, jumping between the two of them like marbles. Each bounce brought a healing power, giving their attack more confidence.
The most crucial thing is... when the ball of light passed through a certain place, the empty air suddenly became distorted.
Something transparent was lying there, being pierced and burned by the bouncing balls of light, and it let out a painful hiss.
Gu Qiongsheng's eyes lit up: "Here!"
It's a silent bug!
It was hidden very well and was almost completely invisible to the naked eye, but the ball of light happened to pass through its body when it splashed, exposing its location!
Before Zhou Qing could react, Gu Qiongsheng had already flown over.
She moved nimbly and neatly, slipping past a group of giant blade insects. Her figure was as swift as lightning, and she kicked out her slender and round legs fiercely, using the rebound force of the giant insect's shell next to her to leap into the air!
The dagger cut through the air, sparks flying!
"call out--!!!"
…
Outside the training ground, the timer suddenly stopped.
A moment later, under everyone's nervous gaze... the situation switched quietly.
【Cleared】
Simple and straightforward.
But it is shocking.
The whole audience was silent.
It seemed like a long time had passed, yet it also seemed like only a moment had passed. Suddenly, a scream rang out from outside the training ground, and then, as if a floodgate had been opened, screams and cheers came flooding in like a tide.
"They made it! They really made it!"
"Long live!"
"Wow, Zhou Qing is also capable! She's a true F-rank!"
"If she can... then can I, too? I, I can..."
"We can do that too!"
Some people covered their faces excitedly, but the half of their cheeks exposed between their fingers had already turned red. The students could hardly suppress their excitement. The three huge words "Passed" on the light screen were like a fire, igniting in their hearts, burning through the mud, and lighting up their long-hidden expectations.
Are they born to be the last one in the class?
No, they don't, they just don't see hope!
But at this moment, someone really brought hope to them.
So dazzling, like a beam of light that creates the world, burning away all the resentment in this world.
Class F has always been invisible in the entire campus.
Students from other classes have to walk around this corner because everyone says that Class F has bad feng shui and that it will bring bad luck if it sticks to them.
The students in Class F endured and suffered silently, becoming more and more lonely and silent.
And now, someone told them—
Even though they are in F-class, they can still shine!
The training is over and the simulation cabin is ejected.
The students swarmed around, their eyes shining brightly.
This was the scene Gu Qiongsheng saw the moment she took off the controller. She was stunned for a moment, then a smile spread across her lips. "Is everyone here?"
The students nodded frantically.
Someone shouted impatiently: "Gu Qiongsheng, how did you do it?"
"Is Zhou Qing still F-rank? Has her mental strength really improved?"
Gu Qiongsheng raised his eyebrows, did not answer directly, but winked at Zhou Qing.
Zhou Qing understood, stood up and walked to the testing area in the corner of the training ground, placed her hand on the mental power meter, and closed her eyes slightly.
A flash of white light lit up on the measuring instrument, and under the nervous gaze of the students, it gradually rose and climbed - finally stopping at the dividing point marked E.
The crowd's breathing held for a moment.
600 energy points.
...E-level!
Although I have just reached the threshold of E-level, at least I have grown a lot compared to the beginning!
The crowd instantly became excited.
The students in Class F all had hot cheeks as they looked at Gu Qiongsheng. Many of them had their heartbeats accelerating, and their lips opened and closed, but they couldn't say anything for a while.
Excitement, regret, apology, shame... so many emotions entangled in their hearts, making them blush.
Gu Qiongsheng looked at them with a smile: "I said I could make you E-level, or even D-level, before the alliance exam. I didn't lie, did I?"
The students breathed rapidly and shook their heads wildly.
"As long as everyone works hard from today on, my promise will still be valid," Gu Qiongsheng tilted his head slightly. "I wonder if everyone is willing to train with me—Tan Yao, are you willing?"
Tan Yao, who was in the crowd, was stunned when his name was suddenly called.
The corners of his mouth twitched a few times, and the excited blush on his face had not completely faded. Facing Gu Qiongsheng's half-smile, he turned his head away awkwardly.
"Tsk, why should I train with you..."
The sound became smaller and smaller.
The people around laughed and cheered, clinging to Tan Yao's shoulders: "Oh, he's definitely willing. Gu Qiongsheng, ignore him, he's just awkward. Just now when you were in there, he was cheering you on, shouting really loudly."
Tan Yao: “…”
Tan Yao's entire face flushed red.
"What, what's with the 'come on'? That's nonsense!" He was embarrassed and annoyed. "Don't talk nonsense, I didn't!"
But the man teased: "You are so stubborn. Listen to your hoarse voice."
Tan Yao: “……!”
He glared at the man, but his ears had already turned red, and his whole body looked almost like the tuft of red hair.
The students laughed and the air was filled with joy.
The laughter grew louder and louder, drifting away with the wind.
Outside the crowd, General Qin finally smiled.
"They know Endeavor, they're all good kids." He sighed solemnly, "It's a shame to put kids like them in Class F."
The counselor's right eyelid twitched constantly, and he hurried forward and said, "The school has a class transfer mechanism. If students in Class F make a huge breakthrough, they can be transferred to a higher class."
General Qin shook his head: "That's not what I meant... Never mind, I'll talk to your principal. Let's go, Qin Yuan, it's getting late... Qin Yuan?"
The two looked back and suddenly found that they had walked a distance, but Qin Yuan was still standing there.
The young man put his hands in his pockets, tilted his head slightly, and looked at Gu Qiongsheng not far away with a deep gaze, a little absent-minded.
The girl in the middle of the crowd was laughing with the people next to her. There was a glimmer in her clear and elegant eyes, the color was like gilded gold, and her long ponytail hair was fluttering.
The sharp wind brushed across her face, making it breathtakingly beautiful.
The wind whistled, lifting a corner of Qin Yuan's white shirt.
He stood there for a while, then suddenly shook his head in self-mockery and turned around.
"Here I come."
