After Li Muzi returned to the human base in the Holy City, he transmitted some analysis of the giant mecha and some of the battle videos that Ye Wushang had given him, and transmitted them one by one to the leaders of the major military regions through the special channels of the human military. After watching the video, everyone in the military area of the human base became excited. Qin Feiyu in the Holy City base didn't know what was going on, but his guard actually wanted to resign.
"Wait a minute, kid, what's going on? Why did you quit your job? Tell me clearly today, or you won't be allowed to leave." Qin Feiyu pulled the guard's clothes and asked, blowing his beard and staring. Look, it's actually a stranger chasing my corner.
"Don't you know? Then you should watch it yourself." Qin Feiyu reached out and took the monitor from the guard's hand. On it was the promotional video for registration for the mecha trials that Ye Wushang had given to Li Muzi. After Qin Feiyu watched it, He immediately picked up the terminal in his hand and called Ye Wushang.
"Mr. Qin's call couldn't be about the trial, right?" Ye Wushang looked at the terminal display and thought with a little fear. Could it be because he didn't tell the other party that he was causing trouble for him? That shouldn't be the case, though. I was very confused, but I still accepted Qin Feiyu’s communication request.
"Hello, Mr. Qin, long time no see. How are you doing? Why don't I send you some supplements or something?" The communication was connected, and Ye Wushang showed his clothes and said hello with a playful smile.
"You kid, don't be careless about me. What's going on with that giant mecha and the mecha pilot selection competition? Why did you come up with such a big thing without saying a word? You have to give me an explanation today, even if it's you kid After being promoted, I have the right to direct some things, but you still have to talk to an old guy like me."
Ye Wushang smiled sheepishly and said, "That's what you're always talking about. That video was just synthesized by me using some videos my master gave me, and the construction of the giant mecha hasn't been completed yet! As for this trial, of course it is to select the personnel to pilot the giant mecha in advance."
"Then why don't you say hello to me in advance? Although you have rights, your position is still one level lower than mine! Now my guard is resigning, what do you think I should do? "Qin Feiyu said angrily to Ye Wushang, feeling full of anger and nowhere to vent his anger.
Ye Wushang didn't expect that Mr. Qin's guard would resign because of this, which really made people laugh and cry: "Mr. Qin, how about this! When the construction of the giant mecha here is completed, and there will be no problems in testing, How about I give you a custom-made mecha? Just treat it as a compensation for your resignation as a guard!"
"Send it to me? What's the use of giving it to me? Besides, at my age, can I still fly such a giant mecha? I heard that the selection requirements are the lowest for the city's super warriors. I have old arms and legs. How can I drive that giant mecha you mentioned and tear my old bones apart?"
When Ye Wushang heard what Qin Feiyu said, he just wanted to curse him directly. I believe you are the only one who is crazy about this old guy. His father told him that the commanders of every military region are masters. You This old guy has already broken through to the stellar level of armor user. This bad old man has a very bad mind. "Then Mr. Qin, can we just do whatever you say we should do?"
"It's very simple. If you have anything to do in the future, discuss it with me first. Forget it this time. Don't do it again in the future." In fact, Qin Feiyu was just teasing Ye Wushang. After all, his grandson was still hanging around with him.
"Okay, Mr. Qin, I will report to you first in the future." After saying this, Ye Wushang immediately hung up the phone. After all, talking to Mr. Qin is quite stressful, and there is huge pressure due to age.
Three days later, the registration for the giant mecha trials ended. In just three days, tens of thousands of people from various bases signed up to participate. Li Muzi called Ye Wushang’s terminal and complained: "Wushang, there are so many people in this trial, if you If you ask me to fight them one by one, I will be exhausted! There are even a few warriors at the peak of the star level." One of the warriors at the peak of the star level is Qin Feiyu's guard Jiang Haokong.
"I didn't expect that so many people would sign up to participate. This time it seems that all the information about each base has been revealed. Then let Xiao Yezi lead the people to start the test first. After we eliminate some of the people, you can Arrange the remaining people to participate in the assessment, and then after you have passed the assessment on a few people, you can let those few people compete one-on-one with the remaining people based on their strength, and you can just watch from the sidelines. "
"That's all we can do." After ending the call, Li Muzi called over Li Ye and a team of nurses dressed in white that she didn't know where she recruited. They also held a lot of strange instruments in their hands.
"The first round of assessment, physical fitness assessment, each time twenty people come forward to take the assessment test at the same time, the full score is one hundred points, and those who reach 80 or above in all indicators are considered to have passed the assessment, as long as there is one data that fails Then they will be eliminated directly. If the individual indicator data is lower than 80 and higher than 75, it will be pending and you can continue to take the assessment later." Tens of thousands of people below were queuing quietly, waiting for the assessment test one by one. Each one passed Those who took the exam were as excited as if they were getting married, but those who failed were very lonely and stood there for a long time unwilling to leave. Some people even failed in only one data and just missed reaching seventy-five. As for those who were eliminated, after the one-day assessment, 23,000 people participated in the selection, and only 4,700 people finally passed, of which 3,300 were candidates. The elimination rate reached more than half.
"Today's first assessment is over. Those who passed will follow the referee team in the examination room to the cafeteria to eat, and then go to rest. Then tomorrow, the second assessment, the actual combat assessment will be conducted." Li Muzi ordered with the look of a cold instructor.
The remaining 10,000 people entered the canteen in an orderly manner. After entering the canteen, they were also shocked by the fully intelligent and automated canteen. Of course, the cooking was done manually in advance, but it was still impossible to make meals that humans could eat.
While eating, everyone was guessing what would be tested in tomorrow's actual combat assessment. Only Jiang Haokong ate in silence, because no matter what the assessment was, he had to pass it. After all, it was a giant mecha that he only watched in cartoons when he was a child. Been there before, that was a childhood dream. A mature man must become a giant mecha pilot.
The next day, the actual combat assessment officially began, "This assessment is a battle without armor. Everyone relies on their own strength to fight. As long as you can persist under my attack for five minutes, or you can defeat me through this." The second item, otherwise you will be eliminated." Li Muzi specially put on a fighting suit that was easy to move today, and he looked heroic. Before that, Ye Wushang found himself and let him and the opponent conduct fighting training and learn new fighting techniques. Now look Come on, even if there are very powerful people among the warriors present, they may not be their opponents.
"Which one of you will come first?" Li Muzi asked, looking at the people standing in the front row. Although they were lined up in square formations, the strongest group of players were standing in the first row of the square formation directly in front of Li Muzi. .
"Report, I'll go first, headquarters Jiang Haokong." Jiang Haokong roared loudly.
"Very good, then you are the first one, let's get started!" Li Muzi nodded. He had read this person's information himself. He is a star-level master. Even if he does not use the armor, his physical fitness should be better than his own. He is much stronger, and he can just use the water god style jujutsu he learned from Ye Wushang to deal with the opponent.
"I'm offended." After saying this, Jiang Haokong attacked Li Muzi and launched a series of roundhouse kicks so fast that he almost hit Li Muzi.
"Your speed is good, it's my turn next." Li Muzi responded in the same way. After several rounds of fighting, Jiang Haokong's attacks could not touch Li Muzi at all. Even if his own strength was strong, it was of no use. He was still hit by the opponent from time to time.
Although Jiang Haokong could not defeat Li Muzi, Li Muzi's attacks could not defeat Jiang Haokong. All attacks were resisted by Jiang Haokong. In this way, after more than ten minutes, Jiang Haokong passed the assessment.
"Thank you for your advice." Jiang Haokong saluted Li Muzi and prepared to step aside.
"Wait a minute, I will announce that you can also choose him as your assessor. The first 100 people who pass the assessment will automatically become the assessor of this trial." Jiang Haokong was confused at this time. He didn't expect that he He can also become an assessor. What is going on in this selection competition?
The assessment was carried out normally, and some people were defeated by Li Muzi in just a few moves. These people relied too much on the power of the armor, and their own strength had not been exercised a lot. Their physical fitness was not enough. They were not the people Ye Wushang wanted, and Ye Wuxi's master once said that if you want to pilot a giant battle armor, your physical fitness must be strong enough, otherwise you will be crushed to death by the pressure of the mecha. After twelve hours of non-stop assessment, those who passed the second round There were still 1,400 people, and the first 100 people who passed the test were all panting from exhaustion. Even if they rotated with another group of 100 people later, they were still lying on the ground tired.
"Now, congratulations on passing the two rounds of assessments, but that doesn't mean you can become a driver."
"Why? Didn't we pass the assessment?" Jiang Haokong asked anxiously. After all, this is what he came for. Why couldn't he become a giant mecha pilot after he clearly passed the two rounds of assessments?
"Let me tell you why." Ye Wushang walked over slowly.
"Because only one hundred giant mechas were built in the initial stage, and only one hundred mechas can be built at present, so the one hundred strongest among the fourteen hundred of you must be selected as the pilots of the mecha. , everyone else can only become substitutes, or wait until the second batch of giant mechas are completed before becoming pilots, or if someone among the first 100 pilots dies, the following people will be replenished according to the subsequent ranking order, and There is an assessment once a month, and only the top 100 people in each assessment can become the pilots of the giant mecha, do you understand?"
"Report, do you mean because of the number of mechas?" Someone below raised their hands and asked.
"Yes, in fact, at this point, the rest of you have been able to become giant mecha pilots, but because of our current problem with the number of giant mechas, you still need to conduct a ranking battle, of course after me After half a month of training here, the ranking battle will begin.”
"The assessment in half a month will allow you to enter the simulation warehouse for a one-on-one simulated battle of operating a giant mecha. The winner of the battle will advance to the next round, and the loser will be on the bench. If you feel that you can't accept it, you can do it now. Quit at any time, do you have any other questions?" Ye Wushang said to everyone who passed the selection.
"No, then when will the training start?" Jiang Haokong breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Ye Wushang and asked.
"When? Start now. Those who reach the target within fifteen minutes of the ten-kilometer sprint will have dinner, and those who fail to reach the target will not have dinner!" Ye Wushang said in a devilish voice, and in the ears of the people below He is like a naughty boy full of bad taste.
Looking at the people running under the sunset, Ye Wushang returned to his laboratory happily.
"You really have a lot of bad taste." Gao Tianhu appeared behind Ye Wushang and said with a smile.
"Master, didn't I learn this from you? I learned a lot from you." Ye Wushang said to Gao Tianhu with a playful smile.
"Okay, now that the construction of the mecha is on track, please find a time to talk to your leader. I want to meet them."
"I understand, Master." Ye Wushang calmed down his expression and replied seriously. After all, Master said this, which means that the danger is closer.
after one day.
"Boss Ye, we have completed our mission and are back." Ye Wushang, who was doing experiments, suddenly heard Wang Gang's shout from behind him.
"Hey, you guys are back! Then clean up and prepare to be examiners. Remember, the top two hundred people will be admitted." Ye Wushang said without looking back.
"Boss Ye, we have just come back, why don't you let us rest!" Wang Gang actually wanted to get some benefits from Ye Wushang. After all, when he came back, he heard that a new mecha had been developed, and it was his first time to pilot it. The mecha guys should get a giant mecha no matter what.
"You kid, take a rest and prepare for the assessment mission." Ye Wushang said angrily to Wang Gang.
"Then you have to tell us the assessment standards this time. How can I be an examiner if I don't know anything?" Wang Gang said helplessly to Ye Wushang. After all, these people in his team didn't ask for it in the first place. Did you come in just after taking the assessment? I can only say that some of us are relatively lucky.
"What's the assessment standard? Just double your original standard. The mechas they drive are much bigger than yours, but the basic operations are the same, so you just adapt to the situation." Ye Wushang After thinking about it, he said that he didn't know where the standard was. After all, no medium-sized mecha had been successfully completed yet. They were all just simulations, so he could only double the standard when he tested Wang Gang.
"Double our standards? Captain, how could we have standards in the first place? Are we supposed to choose a group of people with missing arms and legs?" Wang Gang's deputy ran to Wang Gang's ear and whispered softly.
"There is another one. As long as ordinary people, not those who can use the armor, I will give you one day to complete this assessment task." Ye Wushang suddenly reminded him as if he remembered something.
"Boss Ye, it seems we didn't have assessment standards for that at the beginning!"
"Didn't I set the assessment tasks for you at the beginning?" Ye Wushang looked at Wang Gang with a puzzled look on his face and asked.
"No, we thought we were leaving the army when we were selected!" Wang Gang shook his head and said.
"That's it, you let them fight in pairs, and select the top two hundred with the best physical fitness and fighting skills. This shouldn't be difficult for you, right?" Ye Wushang had no choice, so he would follow the old method. It's always right to choose the strongest person.
"If it's just these tests, then there will be no problem, but is one day too short? Boss, you don't know how many people signed up this time. Although there are not as many people participating in the giant mecha, there are still enough There are five thousand people.”
"Then I'll give you three days. There are still tasks to be assigned to you later. Time is tight and the tasks are heavy, so you can all work hard."
As soon as he heard that there were still tasks, Wang Gang immediately became energetic, "What do you need for two days? Just give me Lao Wang half a day. I will organize the assessment competition now."
"After the assessment, take your people and gather at the base on the third underground floor." Ye Wushang turned around and looked at Wang Gang and others who were hurriedly running out.
"I know, Boss Ye."
"When these guys hear that there is a mission, they feel like they are on fire. But it is precisely because of this group of people that we can protect other people's lives in a safer way!"
"Okay, the rest of the new equipment is almost finished. I'll give it a try while I have time now." Ye Wushang came to the training base on the third underground floor.
A huge mechanical arm carried two thrusters and mounted them on the back of the Wuji mecha.
"Okay, now let's try to see if we can fly!" Ye Wushang sat in the Wuji cockpit and started operating.
"Ready to connect, power on."
The Wuji mecha started to activate, and the thrusters began to operate.
With the instant activation of the propeller, the Wuji Mecha's two huge mechanical legs began to slowly leave the ground.
"Yes, it seems that the Wuji Team should be renamed the Feitian Wuji Team." Ye Wushang drove the Wuji mecha in the base and began to test the flight speed and how long the fuel in the thruster could last.
Half an hour later, Ye Wushang piloted the mecha and landed. "The maximum speed should be able to reach Mach 0.7. In terms of fuel consumption, it should be able to continue flying for three and a half hours." Ye Wushang looked at one-fifth of the fuel consumed. The table recorded it.
"The energy technology learned from the giant mecha is fully ready for use. The next step is to wait for the giant mecha to be completed and then test it. There are only three months left!" Ye Wushang walked out of the base and looked up at the sky. murmured.
"Wushang, after half a month of training, these people have initially met your requirements. What should we do next?" Li Muzi's voice came from the terminal in Ye Wushang's hand.
"Take them to the training base on the fourth floor underground and wait for me. The simulation combat room has just been built, so let them see it." Ye Wushang quickly returned to the base and went to the simulation training room on the fourth floor.
"Hello, Chief!" Jiang Haokong and others shouted in unison as Ye Wushang arrived.
"It's a little slower than I thought. Now you can start the battle test." Ye Wushang was still the same, with the watermelon and small bench coming from nowhere.
"Chief, we haven't divided into groups yet!" Everyone looked at Ye Wushang who was eating watermelon and was speechless. Even Li Muzi felt the same way.
"Which group are you going to divide into? Choose your own opponents. The winner group will decide the top 100. Everyone in the loser group will have the right to challenge the top 100 once. After the challenge of the loser group ends, the top 100 will be ranked. These people are the final drivers of this trial.”
"You can start. If you don't start, I will finish all the watermelons. If I finish the watermelons and don't start, then you will all be eliminated." Ye Wushang ate the watermelon and asked Li Muzi if they would eat it. .
"Okay, everyone, don't delay. There aren't many watermelons left. I don't want to be eliminated. Who will fight me?" A bald man said as he walked to the simulation cabin.
"I'll do it." A slender man entered another simulation cabin, and a desert was projected on the big screen, which is what the two people saw after entering the cockpit. Two giant mechas appeared in the desert, and the red ones were The one driven by the bald man, the blue one driven by the slender man.
"This three-dimensional projection looks real. This thing may be a good choice for watching movies, but there are no movies in this era." Ye Wushang sighed while eating watermelon.
In the projected picture, the two mechas started fighting each other as soon as they started spraying. The two mechas came and went, from the ground to the sky, refusing to give in to each other. In the end, the bald man was slightly better, defeating the slender man. A mecha piloted by a man.
Ye Wushang found that the mechas in the simulated battle were larger and more flexible than he thought, but it was a simulation after all and could only be used for reference.
After the first time, there was a second time, and then another battle began. Jiang Haokong also successfully defeated his opponent, passed the assessment, and defeated his opponent in the shortest time.
"Who is that, Jiang Haokong, right? You defeated your opponent in the shortest time, so I will temporarily appoint you as the captain of this team. Of course, the captain is not fixed. There is a captain challenge every week, and the winner is the captain." Ye Wushang said Putting the watermelon aside, he pointed at Jiang Haokong and said.
"Please rest assured, chief, I will not hand over the position of captain easily." Jiang Haokong shouted loudly after saluting.
"Very good, but those of you in the loser group don't be discouraged. You can stay here and train hard. After passing the training, if you feel you can beat the top 100 people, you can challenge them. But every month you can only One chance, do you understand?" Ye Wushang felt that only in this way could these people force themselves to quickly become proficient in the operation of giant mechas. After all, the war would not wait for him to slowly become proficient in mechas.
