Chapter 293
At first, many female insects did not take this so-called standing posture seriously.
After all, it’s not that difficult to just stand. At most, it’s just a little tiring.
Although the physical fitness of the Tianjia Zerg is much worse than it was ten thousand years ago, their foundation is still there, and they have done more tiring work on a daily basis.
However, soon, this indifferent attitude made them suffer.
Standing is easy, but maintaining the standard posture mentioned by the instructor is not that easy.
At first, the uncomfortable feeling was not obvious, I just felt that my limbs were a little stiff because they had been tensed for too long.
But as time went by, they felt an unbearable numbness and itching in their muscles and joints, making them want to move around.
But they didn't dare.
There is only one instructor, but there are 150 students. Logically speaking, even if they do something small, the instructor will not notice.
But that's assuming there aren't drones overhead monitoring their behavior.
The instructor said that we need to see how long they can persist. Only if they persist long enough can we calculate their physical fitness to the maximum extent.
There is another point.
——The whip in the instructor’s hand is not to be trifled with. No one wants to be whipped in front of their classmates and be pointed out that their movements are not standard.
Moreover, the instructor was not so strict at the beginning. He had already given them time to adapt.
...In order to make them stand properly, the instructor was very gentle in the first hour and patiently instructed them over and over again until their posture was correct before starting the punishment system.
Those who were hit later either kept making small movements or had incorrect standing postures.
Time passes by every second.
On the playground, none of the more than 2,000 female insects dared to slack off, but as time passed, those who could not hold on finally gave up.
At Class 1's location, Chu Xiu looked at the timer which showed that four hours had passed.
The temperature above their heads has been specially adjusted higher, so the female insects who stand for a long time not only have to undergo the training of standing still, but also have to endure the test of rising temperatures.
The level of female insects determines the level of their physical fitness.
Even though these female insects have not undergone systematic training, they do not know how to exert force more efficiently, nor do they know the techniques to increase their endurance.
However, S-level and A-level female insects are naturally better physically than lower-level female insects.
Among the female insects that can’t stand it now, there hasn’t been a single A-level one.
Chu Xiu walked in the column of female insects, slapping the backs of those female insects that could no longer hold on with his pointer stick one by one, "Move your arms and legs, and sit down where you are."
There was no need to let them continue standing unless he wanted to harvest a bunch of female insects that had fainted from the sun.
After four hours of buffer time, the current temperature has risen from 30° in the morning to 37° now, and the perceived temperature is approaching 40°.
Apart from the students who were enduring the unusually high temperature, Chu Xiu was the only instructor who was enduring it with them.
It’s because the other instructors are all simulators.
The simulated human instructors have the function of automatically regulating body temperature and dissipating heat. Not to mention the perceived temperature of 40°, even if it rises to 70 or 80 degrees, it will not cause any damage to their shells.
The drone hovering over the playground, recording the physical changes of the female insects below, will upload the data, and Zhige will conduct a comprehensive assessment of their endurance, physical strength, adaptability...
Assessments like this are just the beginning.
The entire evaluation process will last for three months. After three months, the final evaluation results will be released, and Zhi Ge and Chu Xiu will jointly decide on the final professional military divisions.
Battle command, mecha combat, deep space navigation, planetary landing, etc., each of these requires the training of appropriate soldiers.
In addition, vacancies among ordinary soldiers, generals, colonels, and lieutenants also need to be filled. There is a lot to do to build a combat-capable army from scratch.
The fifth hour.
The sixth hour.
The seventh hour...
Feng Qi felt his bones were stiff. He still maintained his standard standing posture, but he was already numb. Sweat on his forehead dripped down his temples, and his back and chest were wet with sweat.
He could hear the instructor telling people to sit down and rest, but it seemed to be getting less and less frequent, and he hadn't heard it for quite a while.
I was standing too far in front and didn't know if everyone was sitting down.
When will it be my turn?
Feng Qi thought so in his heart, but he showed no sign of moving. He had persisted until now, and if he gave up, he would look down on himself.
I can't stop unless the instructor gives the order.
Most people on the playground were sitting down, with only a few still standing. There were not many students in each class, and at a glance, all were S-level.
Chu Xiu looked around and thought: It’s almost done.
So he sent a message to other instructors on his computer, telling them that today's training was over.
"Time's up, end."
When Feng Qi heard the instructor's voice, his tense breath relaxed, and as his strength was released, he became a little unsteady on his feet.
I'm really tired.
Ling Wu: "Don't sit down right away, move your body."
"Gather here in five minutes."
Feng Qi had a stiff face and moved his hands and feet. Every time he moved, he felt like nothing was right with him.
I feel less tired than hoeing the fields all day.
But fortunately, it's finally over.
While there was still time, Feng Qi sat on the ground after the activity. He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and lifted up the hem of his shirt to wipe it.
Sweating so much made his mouth dry and he was very thirsty and wanted to drink water.
He looked elsewhere and saw the same situation as his own, the entire playground was filled with female insects.
When they occasionally looked at each other, everyone was too tired to talk.
The only people still standing were the instructors standing in front. They looked so energetic that it didn't look like they had been standing with them for the entire afternoon.
Otherwise, how could I become an instructor?
Judging from the endurance and physical strength demonstrated by the instructors, they are really far behind.
A few minutes of rest passed in a flash.
The next moment, whistles sounded one after another.
"Everyone gather and line up."
Feng Qi and the others stood up and lined up according to their original formation.
Although they were very tired, under the instructor's watchful eyes, they still subconsciously stood according to the newly learned posture.
Although we just learned it today, we all stood for the whole afternoon and gained a lot of experience.
"Today's training is just basic standing postures, but many of you female insects can't even last four hours."
"I've never taught students worse than you."
Ling Wu's database records the training of the military academy. In his opinion, the quality of the female insects in front of him is much worse than that in the database.
“…” Feng Qi was speechless.
He really wanted to say that the instructor had no back pain even when standing there. It was obvious that the instructor had been exposed to the scorching sun with them, and now he could still give a lecture with full energy, but he couldn't say a word.
Well, they are useless.
"Next, everyone, turn left." Ling Wu raised his hand, "Follow the class in front and jog to the cafeteria."
Class 1 is leading the way.
In front of Class 1 was a drone responsible for leading the way. Chu Xiu stood on the side of the team, following slowly.
After an entire afternoon of training and having their lunch withheld, it's easy to imagine they must be thirsty and hungry.
The cafeteria is located in a three-story building next to the playground, covering an area of 1,000 square meters. It has simple food pickup counters and tables and chairs.
The rectangular dining table seats ten people. There is a plate on each seat, filled with food neatly arranged in the morning. There are also two covered buckets and a pile of soup bowls in the middle.
Feng Qi was a little surprised to see these. He thought they were nutritional supplements, but these seemed to be normal meals.
Not only is it normal food, it also looks good, with meat, vegetables, and corn and rice?
Although... there is no shortage of nutrients.
Feng Qi glanced at the rows of nutritional supplements in the boxes on the table. They looked a little different from what he had seen before, but the packaging was similar and he could still recognize what they were at a glance.
Ling Wu: "Let's find a place to sit down first and wait for everyone to arrive."
Needless to say, Feng Qi and the others knew what to do. After all, the dozen or so classes ahead of them had already found their seats and sat down.
After everyone arrived, Chu Xiu and the other instructors looked at each other and nodded to indicate that it was okay.
"You can eat now."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone, who were already extremely hungry, grabbed their chopsticks and started to eat their rice diligently.
When Feng Qi took the first bite, his eyes lit up. It was so delicious.
He had never eaten such delicious corn rice. It was not bitter or astringent, but very sweet. The pieces of meat were tasty and salty and sweet.
Suddenly I felt that with this meal, the fatigue from standing for the whole afternoon was nothing.
"If it's not enough, add more yourself."
Ling Wu opened the lids of the rice bucket and soup bucket.
"Instructor, don't you want to eat?" Feng Qi happily scooped up his rice and didn't forget to ask.
"Let me feed you first."
The female insects who were eating at the table: Yes, I feel a little touched. What’s the matter?
Ling Wu walked around the class he was in charge of, and with an expressionless face, he calculated how much the three classes under him would eat.
The supply of materials is limited nowadays. Although we need to focus on the training camp, it is best not to waste them.
Ling Wu looked at them and pointed to an area against the wall. "After you finish eating, drink the nutritional supplements and put the tableware in the recycling area."
"Then we'll disband on the spot and go about our business."
"The evening class schedule has been sent to you. Don't be late for study sessions."
"I'll come to see you..."
Feng Qi paused while eating, took a moment to glance at the terminal, and sure enough, he saw a new message.
I clicked on the class schedule the instructor mentioned and found that the first evening self-study class was at 7 o'clock, but it was already 5:30.
In other words, I only have an hour and a half?
Is it too late?
Feng Qi quickened his eating pace and took his nutritional supplements. He had to admit that this might have been the most filling and best meal he had ever had in his life.
I have to go back and take a shower, so I have to hurry.
I thought about how there was only one washing and shower area on the floor where I lived. If I didn’t hurry, I would miss the chance to get in line.
Feng Qi looked at the other female insects at the table. Everyone ate at about the same speed, and most of them had finished eating by this time.
He suggested, "We have evening study at 7 o'clock, and we have to take a shower and wash clothes. We don't need to help with the cleaning."
"Why don't we take turns coming from today, leaving two people to pack up each time, so the others can go back early."
"Otherwise, it would take a long time to queue up for washing."
"What do you think?"
This was indeed a good idea, and the other nine female insects agreed.
"In that case, I'll go first today."
Feng Qi said this as he put his cutlery into an empty bucket beside him.
"Count me in, too."
The female insect sitting next to him spoke up and put her own plate in. "Okay, leave this to Feng Qi and me. You guys go first."
"Then it's my turn tomorrow." The speaker was a female insect who was one position away from Feng Qi.
"And me."
There were five people sitting on one side of the table. Feng Qi sat first on the right, and the female insect who had just spoken to him and wanted to help him sat on his right.
The two people speaking now are just below on the right.
Most of the people in the cafeteria left quickly.
Just because Feng Qi could think of this solution doesn’t mean that the other female insects are too stupid to think of it, so in the end only some of the female insects stayed in the cafeteria to clean up the dishes.
After the students finished eating and left, Chu Xiu went to the food counter to get his own portion, found a clean table, sat down and ate slowly.
He was the only one who needed to eat, but the other fifteen instructors also found a place to sit down.
Their energy system is very advanced and they hardly need to use outdated means to replenish energy. They have the ability to absorb light energy and convert it into heat energy. After basking in the sun for an entire afternoon, it is almost like a normal person who has been eating.
