Past: Test
Ye Lin and her group were heading towards the top of the mountain when they heard faint footsteps in the distance. Ye Lin gestured to stop, and they immediately hid to the side. Although the others couldn't hear anything, Ye Lin's previous judgments had been correct.
They were extremely nervous as a group of people came out from the bushes. Leading the group was a handsome red-haired boy and a tall, plump girl with an aggressive beauty. Following them was a group of freshmen, along with a dozen tied-up black knights.
The freshmen on Ye Lin's side breathed a sigh of relief, "Something's not right."
The red-haired boy stopped and looked around vigilantly. He looked inquiringly at the place where the freshman was hiding and walked closer step by step.
Just as he approached, Ye Lin stepped out. The freshmen, led by the red-haired boy, immediately took defense, sheathing their weapons after seeing the Guoying uniform Ye Lin was wearing. Ye Lin glanced behind her, and the hidden freshmen appeared before them. The red-haired boy in front of Ye Lin was still stunned, and Ye Lin's handsome face suddenly appeared before him, giving him a great shock.
The gorgeous girl said, "Fioni."
The red-haired boy came to his senses and stepped back to their group.
The red-lipped girl in the lead asked, "Are you also freshmen at Guoying?"
"Are you from another school bus?"
"Yes, our group was on two adjacent buses." The red-haired boy replied.
"That still leaves three more cars," Ye Lin said.
"Do you mean that we should all get together?" asked the red-haired boy.
"We are coming from the east, and they should all be in the west."
"You want to go with us to find other people? Why should we take you with us?" The beautiful girl looked at the weak and small freshmen behind Ye Lin. There were timid and weak girls, boys who were afraid of death and could not help but hide, and weak people of different heights and weights. They formed a sharp contrast with the team on the girls' side who looked strong.
"We only take capable people with us." The girl crossed her arms.
"Have you ever refused help from others or abandoned other freshmen?"
The beautiful girl didn't answer directly nor deny it, "Useless people like us would only be a burden."
The girl's answer was obvious.
"How could you do this? We are all freshmen at Guoying, and you just watched us die without helping us."
The freshmen on Ye Lin's side were indignant. Ye Lin made a gesture to stop them, and they obediently fell silent.
"I know you're planning on finding the others first. After all, there's no telling how many Black Knights there are on this mountain. They're not easy to deal with, and you'll need help. We don't need your help, but we'll need you to look after us on the same journey, and to help us deal with any Black Knights we encounter."
What Ye Lin said was what they were thinking, "Lin."
There was a shout from behind. It was the boys guarding the Black Cavalry that Ye Lin had asked to come over.
□□ and the girl looked at them escorting more than twenty tied-up Black Knights over. They were a little surprised. They had to put a lot of effort to control more than a dozen Black Knights, and several of them escaped. They were very surprised that Ye Lin and her group of freshmen who looked vulnerable could actually catch so many Black Knights.
They arrived at the perfect time, just in time to shock another wave of freshmen. Ye Lin knew that they had no reason to refuse to go with her.
"Tie them together with the group of black riders and keep an eye on them."
Ye Lin said to the red-haired boy and girl, "Go west." Then she led her freshmen west.
The red-haired boy and the girl looked at each other and had no choice but to follow Ye Lin and the others.
Ye Lin and the others climbed over another mountain. "We are already on the west side and haven't seen anyone yet."
It’s right that no one was seen, which means that someone has gathered or dealt with the Black Knights nearby.
It was already completely dark. "Look, there's a fire ahead."
There was movement even in the bright area. Three boys came towards them against the light. They were from different countries and had outstanding demeanor and appearance.
Standing on the left and right sides are a boy with a young appearance and a boy with a good-looking appearance. The boy in the middle looks taciturn and steady.
"So there are other people here. I thought we were almost all here?" said the young-looking boy.
As fate would have it, these six people met, and no one knew what deep bond they would develop in the future.
"You came from the east." The boy in the middle moved his lips with dignity.
"You're right. There really are some missing ones in the east. Wow, you've captured so many Black Knights."
"Let's settle them first." said the handsome boy.
Some freshmen took Ye Lin's group for a break and gave them water and some dry food.
The six leaders including Ye Lin gathered around the fire to discuss countermeasures.
"Those Black Riders are too stubborn and we can't find out anything. We don't even know where they come from. There are almost a hundred of them. Fortunately, they don't have real guns in their hands. They just make a loud noise and fire short-range gas bullets that can't hurt people." said the boy with a young appearance.
The beautiful girl asked, "What exactly do they want to do?"
"It's obvious that their target is us freshmen," Ye Lin analyzed.
"Why? Are you targeting Guoying?" the red-haired boy continued to ask questions.
Ye Lin didn't say it out loud: Those who target us may not be outsiders.
"The remaining Black Knights must still be on the mountain, and their camp is probably to the west." Ye Lin said.
"We did find traces of the Black Knights at the foot of the mountain in the west. That's most likely their base camp. To avoid alerting the enemy, we didn't act rashly." The cold boy said.
A shrill, high-pitched sound was heard from the loudspeaker. "Hey, dear students, hello. We are the Black Cavalry from an external force. These mountains are full of our people, and you have nowhere to hide. As long as you surrender, everything will be over, and we promise not to harm you. Next, we will give you half an hour to think it over. If you continue to resist, we can't guarantee what will happen to you. Hahahahaha..."
When Ye Lin and the other six heard this, they stood up to check. Lights were on and tents were set up at the foot of the mountain in the west. The sound came from there.
Ye Lin looked up at the position of the moon in the sky. It was already past ten o'clock.
At this moment, in the Black Cavalry's tent, a man put down his intercom. A man in Gaoguo military uniform walked in and saluted respectfully, "Sir."
The man in military uniform asked, "What's the situation?"
"Don't worry, those freshmen won't be able to hold out for long. They'll surrender soon."
"Well, I heard that the quality of this batch of freshmen is very good. You lost quite a few people."
"Those guys have been too indulgent with them over the past two years. They've become increasingly useless and can't even handle these new students. But don't worry, everything is under control."
"Well, finish early and give me the list."
"Yes, sir."
The man in military uniform left.
The man switched back to the voice chat. "Hey, you idiots, get up and get to work. Take care of these freshmen as soon as possible. Look at how useless you are. You haven't even taken care of them yet."
No one noticed that the headphones hidden in the ears of the guarded Black Knights made a sound.
Half an hour had passed, and there was still no movement from Ye Lin.
The man started to deliver his ultimatum again. "Dear little rabbits, have you made your choice? Will you surrender or continue to fight against us?"
Still no reply, the man walked out of the tent, took out a telescope and looked towards where Ye Lin and the others were. They had extinguished the firewood, and there was almost no light where they were.
The man returned to the tent. The big screen showed the view from the perspective of every Black Knight. There was no sign of the new creatures. It seemed that they were still far away.
The man continued speaking to the freshmen, "It seems this is your choice. Unfortunately, you made the wrong decision. So, little bunnies, be prepared and don't get scared."
The man gave orders to the Black Cavalry, and all the Black Cavalry went out in full force, rushing towards where Ye Lin and the others were.
The man in the tent watched the images from the miniature cameras on the chests of each black knight.
The Black Knights' position at Ye Lin's was pitch black. One of the Black Knights turned on the lighting equipment, and the leading Black Knight beside him quickly stopped him from moving. "Hey, are you trying to scare away the little prey?"
There was a slight rustling sound in the grass nearby, and the leading man approached step by step.
"Report, our captured accomplices were found in the east."
The leading black knight let go of the mouse hiding in the bushes and said, "Watch this place. Let's go and take a look."
The Black Knights saw a group of dark-skinned people wearing the same Black Knight cloaks as theirs sitting together. The leading man was amused by this scene and asked someone to untie them.
"Look at you guys, you were tricked by a bunch of little brats. You really lack training."
The other Black Knights untied them, and in an instant the freed Black Knights quickly attacked the Black Knights who untied them. They were not prisoners at all, but freshmen in disguise.
"careful."
The freshmen threw off their black robes, revealing their student uniforms, and looked at the Black Knights with hostility. Each of them was ready to show their strength and rushed towards the Black Knights.
The leading black knight was knocked to the ground, and he pulled up the signaler with difficulty.
The black cavalry, who had come from different places, received the signal. The black-robed man who had initially fought Ye Lin saw the signal and exclaimed, "Oh no! We've fallen into a trap! Quickly return to base camp."
The Black Knights who remained to watch the mice heard rustling noises all around them, growing louder and closer, all around them. The Black Knights unconsciously drew closer, surrounded by the noise, their nerves on high alert. Freshmen, far more numerous than themselves, stepped out from the brush. Their shadows, cast in the moonlight, cast a shadow over the Black Knights, completely obscuring them.
In the Black Cavalry tent, the men who obeyed his orders watched the footage from the surveillance camera with rage, "They're all useless, just a bunch of blind kids. They can't even be subdued."
Even if this class of freshmen is more outstanding than previous ones, they will not admit that it is because of their remarkable abilities, nor will they praise their excellence.
The man watched as more and more Black Knights were subdued, and his confidence in victory was no longer as strong as before. He connected to the communication channel of the six leading Black Knights. Before the man could speak, the leading Black Knight who had fought Ye Lin spoke up, "Sir, be careful! We've been tricked. They're targeting you."
Before the man could react, he was knocked unconscious by a stick. The six people behind him were Ye Lin and the others. The six team leaders on the other side of the channel naturally heard the sound and rushed over.
About an hour ago, after the man finished broadcasting the half-hour countdown, Ye Lin and the other five people discussed countermeasures.
Ye Lin looked at the control screen in front of her and took over immediately. It would take some time to crack it. Ye Lin had to get control of the Black Knight before they arrived. Time passed by every second.
"They are almost here." The voices of the crowd could be faintly heard outside.
There was one final step left, and it was the most challenging. Once the five-minute countdown was triggered, Ye Lin would have to find the sequence of bits in the six-digit code within that time. The countdown had already begun, and Ye Lin seized every second. "Let me help you," the beautiful girl said.
The girl's world network technology is also very good. She can keep up with Ye Lin's pace. The girl helps Ye Lin screen a large range of sequences. Ye Lin is writing the last section of the code for the screening program. Outside the tent, the sound of freshmen fighting with the black knights can be heard. Six people broke into the tent. They were the black knights leading the six waves.
Ye Lin hit the last run button, and all the screens lit up green. "Permissions changed successfully."
Ye Lin and the beautiful girl stood back beside them, facing the Black Knight. The handsome boy said, "Then one for each of us."
The red-haired boy yelled, "Then let's do it big time."
The decisive battle between the freshmen and the Black Knights had begun. The freshmen were unwilling to lose, and the fight was in full swing inside and outside the tent.
The cold boy and a black knight moved quickly. The black knight threw the cold boy over his shoulder, and the cold boy rolled to the table at the corner of the tent. The black knight stepped forward and pinned him on the table and beat him. The cold boy dodged flexibly, blocked with his elbow, and kicked the black knight's leg with his foot. The positions of the two were reversed, and the boy naturally didn't hesitate to hit the black knight in the face. The black knight pushed the boy away with a clever move.
The two men staggered to the pillar supporting the tent. The Black Knight pushed the boy against the pillar and was about to punch, but the boy dodged with his backhand and slammed the Black Knight hard against the pillar. Ye Lin and the other five also faced off with the other Black Knights, and were even beaten out of the tent.
The Black Knight punched the pillar, causing it to tilt and the tent to collapse. The two men were buried inside. The other five had already decided the winner. Ye Lin and the other five were obviously the winners. Standing by the ruins of the collapsed tent, everyone was waiting to see who would be the final winner and whether anyone would come out.
A hand emerged from under the tent canvas, ripped the top of the tent down and threw it aside. Someone stood up. People in the distance couldn't see who it was, but they recognized that the man was wearing the same school uniform as theirs. The cold-blooded boy walked out step by step, holding the unconscious Hei Qi in his hand.
"Woooooooooo——" All the freshmen cheered and jumped for joy. The applause inspired everyone's heart and surged with emotion. This is youth.
The moon was bright in the sky, and the freshmen had won a great victory. It was almost midnight, and the next step was to judge the Black Knights.
Each Black Knight was tied up individually and lined up in rows. At the front were the six people including Ye Lin and the six people headed by the Black Knights. Each row of Black Knights faced the freshmen head-on.
Facing the black rider at the foot of the mountain with whom she had initially fought, Ye Lin leaned down and whispered in his ear, each word audible only to the two of them: "The game is about to end, isn't it, Instructor Jimmy?"
The Black Knight in front of him raised his head in surprise, his lips trembling uncontrollably, "How did you find out?"
"Your disguise is terrible, it's not even a disguise. Your body shape hasn't changed. Even with a voice changer, a person's tone and mannerisms won't change. Your moves haven't changed either. Didn't you demonstrate them during military training?"
"Did you discover it from the beginning?"
"Have you forgotten? We've looked each other in the eye. Even with your face covered, the way you looked at me remained the same, and it was aggressive."
Jimmy closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "We lost, completely. I still have a question. Where did you hide the Black Knight you captured?"
Ye Lin looked at the tent that had become a ruin, "So that's how it is." Jimmy suddenly realized.
When Ye Lin caught the first batch of Black Knights, she discovered the invisible cameras and micro earphones on them. The Black Knights were brought into the tent wearing the freshmen's military training uniforms, and they have been in the tent ever since.
Ye Lin pulled out the pistol from Jimmy's waist. Ye Lin had never asked anyone to confiscate their pistols. Her solemn voice echoed through the mountains, "Everyone, draw the guns of the Black Riders in front of you."
"Aim at them."
Some freshmen pointed resolutely at the Black Knights, while others looked at each other, hesitant to raise their guns. "What? Are we going to kill people?"
"Here, in Guoying, can't you even fire a gun?" Ye Lin's tenacious voice echoed in their ears again and again.
This was their purpose, to tell these people what kind of place Guoying was. Here, it wasn't enough to just have good grades.
Everyone knows what it means to stay in this place where so many people are fighting for their lives.
They no longer wavered and firmly pointed their guns at the Black Knights.
"Shoot them in the knees, the shoulders, and the heart."
Ye Lin led them in a well-planned "bang bang bang" pattern. After five gunshots, every Black Knight's headset rang out, "Student Geneine Jimmy has been shot and is eliminated!"
"Student Olifeoni was shot and eliminated!"
"Student Mingliehu Nick Jelsun was shot and eliminated!"
"Student..."
Yes, this gun cannot hurt anyone at all. Every Black Rider has a sensing device on his body. As long as the fatal part is hit with enough force, the system will determine that the Black Rider is dead and will no longer be able to attack new students.
Gaoguo's international time struck midnight. A helicopter hovered overhead with the roar of its propellers. "Game over!"
"Congratulations to all the new students for successfully passing the entrance exam, defeating the Black Knight, and completing the first lesson of the English-Chinese introductory course!"
"Next, all freshmen, please descend the mountain safely and take our shuttle bus. Your dormitories have been assigned. Everyone, return to campus and rest. The performance results will be announced tomorrow."
The silent bus arrived at the foot of the mountain again and waited for everyone.
"What, a test? This is just an exam for Guoying?"
"What is this? What does Guoying think of us? Does he care about our personal safety?"
"Oh, don't be silly, this is Guoying, there will be many more things like this in the future."
"No wonder those seniors looked at us like that when we left school."
The freshmen who had just finished their battle were exhausted both physically and mentally, and found it difficult to accept and digest such a back-to-school gift from the school.
The most youthful-looking boy among Ye Lin and the other six crossed his arms. "Sure enough, it's the school's fault. Seriously, it's such a hassle. If I had known better, I wouldn't have had to pay more. But fortunately, it's not that difficult. You've all worked hard. I'll give each of you a large sum to share when we get back."
Money is very important to this boy. He believes it can solve all his problems in life, and he has a small hobby of amassing wealth. His ability to convince so many students is not only due to his ability, but also to his ability to spend money lavishly.
Some freshmen were already walking towards the school bus. Ye Lin got on a black motorcycle and was about to leave. "Hey, there's a bomb on that car," shouted the red-haired boy.
Ye Lin threw down a black button and rode away on his motorcycle without looking back.
The red-haired boy fumbled with it. "There's no bomb on the bike," the cool boy said, having already dismantled the bike into pieces. "It's just a timing device installed, disguised as a bomb's timing frequency, to confuse us."
The cold boy was very talented in mechanics. The button that Ye Lin had just thrown away was found on the officer who was knocked unconscious by them. It was the main control button for controlling the Black Knight's mount. There was a positioning device inside the motorcycle, and it could control the status and range of the motorcycle. However, Ye Lin had already removed its control authority. This was the real reason why Ye Lin asked everyone to give up the Black Knight's motorcycle. The same was true for the Black Knight's sidearms. They were of little use without the Black Knight.
Ye Lin drove past the foot of the mountain and gradually went away. "She's not going back with us. Where is she going?"
