After confirming Xia Qin's failure, Lu Ping'an guessed that it was reasonable for the mercenary group to fail.

Su Zhizhu's strength is that of a battlefield support, and to be honest, it is also a pure combat strength. If evaluated alone, she is actually the lowest among silver.

Coupled with her identity, she is affiliated with the Third Special Service Team, which does not really mean she is an official.

As far as the information Lu Ping'an got after the exam, the resumes obtained by the examiners would definitely include most of their professional lives, and their past mercenary careers could not be hidden at all.

An "unreliable" evaluation is equivalent to increasing the difficulty at this time. The "Grass Team"-style assessment system gives the examiners too much independent decision-making power. It is expected that the difficulty will increase due to a sense of disgust. Their The verification test is probably more difficult than Xia Qin.

As for Ba Manzhen, let alone it. Just being a "foreign mixed blood" can make its difficulty rise directly to the ceiling of this assessment.

Don't say "everyone is the same" or "you can apply by name". With this time's approach of "reliable" official forces and giving priority to "our own forces", it is unlikely that "mixed-race" people will be allowed to sneak into the first batch of explorations from the beginning. Who in the team can be sure that she was not sent from the other side of the bloodline?

The difficulty level was high, the grading was very picky, the examiner was aggressive, and Ba Manzhen’s extremely poor language skills were high. She probably had to endure a lot of off-site pressure. She didn’t have any conflicts with the examiner on the spot, which was pretty good. .

If she could pass this, I'm afraid the examiner wouldn't be able to say anything. But obviously, she wasn't outrageous enough, at least not outrageous enough in front of a group of senior silvers.

". This assessment produced 967,868 explorers, but the final pass rate was only about 4.5%. Considering that the evaluation level of the candidates are all senior secret keepers who have been in the industry for more than seven years, this time the explorers can be called All members are elite. In this state, there are 42,315 people with excellent results, which is higher than the average level of the state."

On the TV, when the pass status of the Explorer exam was broadcast, it was said that nearly one million Explorer qualifications were exaggerated. However, if one considers the dozens of states and municipalities in the East, on average, one state has only There are tens of thousands or even thousands of people, but they seem to be very precious.

Most of these people are probably the so-called "captain level" or above, which can be said to be high-end combat power for guarding a region. Now they have all been taken out. Even half of them are planning to invest in this plan. If people choose to stay at home, there will be at least three to four hundred thousand exploration teams.

This is the seed of the future and the foundation of this world. I’m afraid no one knows how far it can go.

This is obviously a huge gamble. Not only a huge gamble on the world level, but also a huge gamble on the national destiny of the entire Eastern Kingdom.

Most of the first batch of explorers are the backbone of the official and pro-official forces. If there is a large number of losses among them, it will mean that the entire Dongguo's backbone of combat force will suffer a massive hemorrhage. At that time, those "friendly" "righteous gods", The "evil gods" have something to say.

But from another perspective, if the first batch of explorers returns successfully and brings a large harvest, then the situation will naturally be reversed.

Evil gods, righteous gods, and large multinational companies will all become solid allies of local forces, developing and exploring together.

".You're really brave."

Lu Pingan said that it was already three days after he obtained the qualification of explorer, but Lu Pingan and his party were not in a hurry to return to the ancient city.

In the past few days, Lu Ping'an and other "professionals", "secret keepers" and "explorers" have been constantly interviewing, chatting and communicating. Some are trying to obtain information, and sometimes they are recruiting talents.

A lot of intelligence, whether true or false, has been collected, but the progress in recruiting talents is mediocre. It's still the same old problem. If others think you have a hairless mouth, it is estimated that you are not doing things well.

“Qualifications and reputation are not enough.”

Explorer qualifications are very rare and difficult to pass, but now 40,000 people in Changping Prefecture alone have obtained explorer qualifications.

Some of them were recruited by big forces, some built their own teams, and some teamed up to seek money. But no matter which way, expansion and recruitment are necessary, and the price of talents has naturally been raised again.

Given Lu Ping An's current conditions, it is indeed difficult to recruit people.

"If it really doesn't work, the rabbit will have to eat the grass next to the nest first."

There were several grasses beside the nest, and Lu Pingping had his eyes on them all.

"OK, please think about it more. I'm not in a hurry. I have quite a lot of tickets here. After all, two of us passed. Tsk, why did you fail again? It's so rude."

Lu Ping'an's previous call to Su Zhizhu and the others was not just to show off his passing, or to find an unlucky guy to comfort Sister Xia. Well, the above was indeed his main reason, but he also had some additional thoughts.

He told himself that he had tickets and planned to go to the Demonic Land, which was an implicit invitation.

But now, even Bamanzhen and the others can't stand Lu Pingping's "little fights". But as time goes by, they are destined to make a choice.

".Time is running out."

There is currently no time limit for explorer status qualifications, but there is an opportunity to enter the Demonic Land.

It is said that the situation in the Demonic Land has deteriorated and it can last for at most half a year. This does not mean that the explorer still has half a year to explore. On the contrary, the time that can be explored is only three or four months at most.

First of all, you cannot be sure that a "cancer patient" will really "die". It is normal to die sooner or later. According to the experience of experts, 99% of the time, it will only happen sooner rather than later.

More importantly, when encountering a demon, the further you go, the crazier it becomes, and the collapse and madness of the world will increase exponentially. In the final period, it is not a battlefield that Lu Ping'an and his party can directly participate in, and even watching is a kind of battlefield. seek death.

Lu Ping'an still knew what was going on. He and most of the explorers who wanted to do this planned to go in as soon as possible, get a feel for the situation, practice their skills, make a fortune and leave safely. Then, everyone's time would be even more limited.

"I checked on the Explorer's website. There is one boat to the Demon Land every month. The fourth of next month is the first one. We can't miss it."

Based on this calculation, there are still about ten days of preparation time, which is quite tense.

Wait for next month? That would be equivalent to allowing the safe exploration period of up to three or four months to be directly reduced by a large part, which is simply unacceptable.

"Senior Brother Guan and I each have ten tickets. For our first exploration, we should use at least half of it. If it doesn't work, we can sell tickets, which is actually a bit of a loss. If you have suitable candidates, please recommend them to me."

Each explorer has the right to purchase 10 ferry tickets, which are "very expensive" in various senses. Not only does it cost one time, but there is also a "tariff share" later. But the first exploration is free, and the second, The third time is half price, which is an encouragement for newcomers to get on the road.

Tickets from big forces and companies are never enough. They have offered sky-high prices to buy "extra tickets." A ticket can easily be sold for 100,000, and can also be exchanged for scarce resources and church credit points. He was a little excited. He estimated that he would not be able to use up all the tickets he had, and he could sell a few to exchange for logistical supplies.

But Lu Ping An prefers to use these votes to recruit some reliable talents.

He has land, organization, and the means to quickly cultivate combat power. Now he only lacks some good seedlings worth investing in.

".Help us save the tickets, at least until next Friday, we will decide as soon as possible"

As for the text message Su Zhizhu sent through gritted teeth, it was obvious that their situation was not very good.

Lu Ping'an didn't know if he could eat the first grass on the edge of the nest, but he probably could eat the second and third ones.

"Sister Hua, you don't want your village to have problems, right? Well, I mean, aren't the conditions I gave you good enough? Why are you hesitating?"
