Lu Ning only knew one person who was about to be promoted and had a certain level of strength.
Chu Jianting.
In fact, Yun Zhiyao also wanted to advance, but she had obviously planned the time and route for herself, and would not participate in this kind of pre-war alliance-style meeting. Lu Ning just asked and received a rejection. Just gave up.
There was also a man with glasses who came in at about the same time as Chu Jianting. Lu Ning remembered that his name was Pang Shaotong. He met him after coming out of the villa for the first time. After such a long period of experience, the politeness and anger in him were much less. He seemed more calm and reserved. After entering the room, he just nodded to Lu Ning and took a seat.
Later, Shu Xingruo and Su Zhilan led five people into the house.
"Already come so much?"
Shu Xingruo said hello with a smile, and then briefly introduced himself and everyone.
The two are friends who have known each other since they entered the hospital. One of them is only a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, but his hair and beard have turned white. He is a doctor named Yin Mai. The other one is named Qian Wanli. He is young, slightly fat, and has messy hair. He is a master of computer technology and also knows some military knowledge about firearms.
The other three are all young women.
Su Shengge looks quiet on the outside, but when he introduces himself, he says that he is a sports person, especially sports that challenge extremes such as parkour. Ning Yeyi, a standard puzzle-solving passer, is a cool girl with short black hair and neutral clothing. Zhao Chenshuang has an arrogant expression, and her tone and movements are a bit exaggerated and artificial. Only Shu Xingruo can chat with her.
Lu Ning was also familiar with the last three people who came.
Mo Lianren and her sister Mo Xiren, as well as Tumen, who was the captain at that time.
"Seventeen in total." Cheng Wuling opened his eyes after everyone arrived. "Although we definitely know more than that, I'm afraid these are the only ones suitable to come here."
"That's enough. It's enough for half the lineup of an ordinary test venue." Ye Tisi glanced at the almost full room and clapped her hands immediately, "If you don't want to talk about it, Wu Ling, I'm always worried. What bad ideas are you holding back?"
"...I don't know why you always feel this way, then who will start?"
"I'm here." Lu Ning stood up slightly, pulled the chair to the side, pressed her hand on the table, and a three-dimensional projection appeared behind her.
Into the title.
"Everyone must be aware of the main purpose of this time, which is to form an alliance that can assist each other in the promotion test and support everyone in passing the test as much as possible. Because of the special nature of the promotion test, we can conduct such an 'advance team formation' , I don’t think anyone will miss this advantage.”
Lu Ning pointed her finger, and several partitions appeared on the screen behind her.
"As we all know, the promotion test will not reveal any information, and the background of the world cannot be known. Whether it is magic, fantasy, science fiction, history, mythology, fairy tales, era, punk, wasteland, or war, it can all be used as a big world view The basis of the background. But even if there is nothing, we must make some preparations."
"For example?"
"Five parts - Assembly, Investigation, Combat, Missions and Diplomacy."
Five words appeared behind Lu Ning.
“First of all, if they cannot be grouped together, the method of gathering, the agreed password, the method of confirming identity, and the backup countermeasures in case the group cannot be grouped.
"Then, conduct a post-assembly investigation, which involves the command of the complete team and the command of the incomplete team. I hope to determine everyone's command priorities during this discussion. Similar to the army, any conflict will arise in the event of a conflict. The highest ranking person shall prevail.”
"Wait a minute." Zhao Chenshuang raised her hand and raised her chin arrogantly, "What if you think the commander is wrong? Do you still want to die?"
"You can choose to leave the team. We will not impose instructions, but when you actually take a certain job, there is no room for withdrawal."
Zhao Chenshuang sneered, shook her head and stopped talking.
"The third point is combat. Because of your preferences, we should distinguish the priorities of combat and investigation, as well as the combat cooperation required when necessary. In addition, the weapons that can be obtained in the scene should also be prioritized by the combat group. Provision - as compensation for fighting in a situation where they could die at any time. We will also discuss this.
"Fourth is the task. Different tasks may cause the order of completion to be different sooner or later. Although the branch lines in the scene are not among the task requirements, they are also related to whether we can successfully pass the test and the final score. Therefore, the degree of sharing of tasks is also There should be a discussion.
"The last one is diplomatic work. Since we can form such a team, you can imagine that other teams will appear in the scene. How to get along with those teams, and how to deal with them when they meet alone. We need to have a unified practice."
These are the issues that Lu Ning and others think should be considered most.
=========================
The people who are found are undoubtedly the best among the "tourists". According to the ratio, the promotion ratio of the first-level distribution center is actually the lowest. It is considered lucky to meet people here who can save enough promotion points. .
But unlike those who passively escape from fatal crises, people who try to actively change their destiny can always be encountered.
Three hours passed by in a flash, and everyone present showed extraordinary efficiency. It would not take more than three minutes for a problem to be raised, discussed, compromised and reached a consensus, and there was no need to even say everything. , with a gesture and a look, everyone can finalize a plan that everyone accepts.
If Lu Ning was not one of the initiators, but an invited participant, she would not even be able to keep up with the discussion of some things. It seems that everyone has thought about appropriate strategies thousands of times before coming here. It's just to seek common ground while reserving differences.
Finally, a large number of completed entries have been entered on the light screen, and each one has been checked.
"Done." Zhao Chenshuang leaned back on the chair slightly, picked up the free hot tea provided here from the table, and sneered, "I thought it was such a troublesome problem, it's just the basics."
"It's just to unify everyone's thoughts on action. You have to adapt to the test." Ning Yeyi walked to the window. In her hand was a cup of lemon black tea. The cup was small and exquisite, which was slightly in contrast to her appearance.
“Does anyone want to print a copy?”
Cheng Wuling asked.
"Hey, this is all what we discussed, why should we print it?" Ye Tisi's hair was combed by her at some point. She was sitting upright in her seat, looking a bit aristocratic.
"In that case, let's sign up."
After Cheng Wuling finished speaking, the middle of the conference table suddenly dented downwards, and a self-service machine that looked more technological than the one downstairs rose up.
"Sign up now?" Su Zhilan glanced at the middle hesitantly, but she had never said this before.
"This is the information center, but it is the most convenient place to register. It can also avoid time errors to the greatest extent." Lu Ning explained helpfully, and then looked around. No one showed too much surprise.
"Then, everyone in this room has signed up for the promotion test that will take place in eight days. Please register." Cheng Wuling said to the service machine.
Soon, a mechanized voice came from the machine.
"We have received the upgrade registration information from the Information Center No. █-██-ccdb919. The processing is completed and the personnel information is collected...completed.
"b919 Cheng Wuling, Lu Ning, Su Zhilan, Tumen, Mo Xiren, Mo Lianren, Shu Xingruo, Pang Shaotong, b742 Ye Tisi, b220 Chu Jianting, Yin Mai, b062 Zhu Hongye, b974 Su Shengge, b113 Zhao Chenshuang, b7e5 Shen Xinyue, b500 Qian Wanli, b615 Ning Yeyi. The above seventeen people have entered the preparations for the promotion test and obtained authorization..."
At this time, Lu Ning's cell phone vibrated in her pocket.
[You will sign up to participate in the promotion test. After eight calendar days, b919 Cheng Wuling will initiate a group application. Do you agree? 】
Everyone seemed to get the same message.
After Lu Ning clicked to confirm, the machine sound soon started ringing again.
"Seventeen people agree and the registration is successful. Please accept the instructions for this test. The instructions can also be viewed repeatedly on your communication carrier."
Above the machine, words surrounded by a sphere appeared.
"The project type of this upgrade test is survival. Obtain task instructions when entering the scene. The entry method is to go to sleep within two hours after eight natural days. The address is not limited. The time countdown has been entered into your communication carrier. If you fail to enter, the test will be defaulted. If failed, the registration fee will not be refunded.
"The background of this test is the first stage of machinery. It is prohibited to carry any items that are beyond the era or wear clothing that is different from the era. The allowed belongings only include clothing, props, and weapons that are consistent with the era—including knives and Explosives are prohibited.
"The difficulty level of the upgrade test is the second level, and the upgrade test will inevitably come with the initial disadvantage of soul damage. Please be careful to go to the hospital for medical treatment after completing the task. Thank you for your perseverance in improving, and I wish you all the best in your upgrade."
The sound of the machine ended, leaving only the words floating in the air.
"That...mechanical first stage, what does it mean?" Qian Wanli asked.
"It is the technological side of the pan-civilization history of the distribution center." Ye Tisi explained lightly, "the distribution center divides all civilization types into three categories, technology, magic, and chaos. Each civilization has detailed information according to its development stage. As for the division, the first stage of machinery is probably the mechanical revolution...the early stage when petroleum minerals began to be used as the main fuel. Our backgrounds are different and I can't give a unified explanation."
"No, after all, it was when the electronics industry failed to dominate?"
"Sorry, most civilizations were at this time before computers had even been invented."
Qian Wanli immediately made an exaggerated expression, half of his ability was wasted at this moment.
