Practical tests and psychological tests are the two thresholds Rhode Island prepares for newcomers.
It's not too high, after all, the newcomers who can be brought to the main base are not fuel-efficient lamps.
But there have also been cases where problems were exposed in external tests, so these two thresholds have always existed.
Even Silver Ash, the leader of a country, must pass these two tests when joining Rhode Island.
However, during the period of 'City-Longmen', Yinhui's family was still staying in Kjerag, the snow-capped mountains had not yet been stained with blood, and they had no contact with Rhode Island.
When Chuxue fled, they discovered this magical pharmaceutical company and discovered that the awakened Dr. Noah, the Queen of All Women, was related to Rhode Island.
Therefore, Valentin was curious about who the newcomer was to Rhode Island this time.
He was looking forward to it being an operator he knew.
That way, if you know more or less the other party's information, you won't be beaten badly in the newcomer test, and it will be easier to develop relationships after becoming colleagues.
It's always good to have more friends.
"Don't come with anyone too outrageous this time..."
As Valentine walked on the road, he remembered the actual combat test he participated in when he first came to Rhode Island.
He thought he had only one opponent, but instead several came, some of which had the power to move mountains and fill seas, which scared him quite a bit.
Although it is just a rumor, it cannot be taken as a story.
Fortunately, there were only two opponents in the end, Texas and Franka. Compared with those monsters, they were relatively normal. Although there were some setbacks in the actual combat test, they still managed to pass.
It's just that the regret in Valentine's heart is getting stronger.
Now he really wishes he had the power to turn back time and go back to that day to talk about his original self.
"We can't show off anymore."
At that time, Valentin had only been in the world of Terra for only two years. Although his adventures were not as many as those of the protagonists in many novels, they were quite numerous. The biggest one was obtaining the soul of Raphael.
This sister paid voluntarily.
The results of it?
Not long after the actual combat test started, he exposed this trump card, and he showed it on his own initiative...
Now that he thought about it, he didn't even have the energy to complain.
Fortunately, not many people showed up at the test site that day. Almost all of them were Rhode Island operators. They looked down and didn't look up, so there was a way to solve it.
It's just that Texas belongs to Penguin Logistics and has only a short-term employment relationship with Rhode Island. It has now returned to Longmen.
I'm afraid I won't see her for a year or so.
But this matter is neither small nor big.
The existence of the Weapon Angel is just a means of surprise for Valentine. His trump card can be considered, but it is not very important.
His real trump card is his Origin Stone skills.
vitality.
Looking at it this way, Valentine is playing with others openly. Both the bomb king and the big king are displayed to let the opponent know that they are not easy to mess with, and a 2 is hidden for emergencies.
"I just hope she doesn't take this matter to heart and has already forgotten it."
Valentine sighed and stopped.
"Here we are."
Xing Yihuang stood in front of the door with a cold voice.
She turned her head and looked at the two people behind her, placing her hand on the door without pushing it open.
She learned last night that Valentin was going to participate in the rookie test, so she came to watch the game with Raphael today.
Anyway, I am idle, why not take a look at the level of the newcomers.
By the way, let’s take a look at Valentine’s current strength.
After all, he has lived in a different world for thousands of years. Although this body is not that other body now, there is still no trace of it left in his memory.
Maybe there will be surprises in this battle.
"go in."
Valentine nodded, pushed open the venue door and walked in front.
Raphael and Xing Yihuang followed him.
The three of them filed in and soon had a panoramic view of the entire venue.
Compared with memory, this testing venue is wider and has more complete facilities.
A large number of weapons were placed on racks at the edge of the field, as well as various staffs.
Some of the staffs are quite special, almost identical in appearance to guns, and some of them are equipped with suppressor-like equipment at the front, which is very strange.
If it weren't for the sights and magazines, he would have used these staffs as guns.
"Is that your Rutland specialty?"
Valentin stared at the weapons, tilted his head and asked Raphael softly.
The venue was empty and quiet, which made him lower his voice involuntarily.
"……No."
Raphael took a few glances and responded quickly.
"Rutland's blunderbuss is just a blunderbuss. It relies on etched bullets and does not require high Originium skills."
"It is still a staff after all. Its power still depends on the source stone skills of the caster."
The angel's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a few small question marks appeared in his eyes.
"The shape of the staff also affects the caster. This is the first time I have seen such a strange staff."
"Maybe it's a test product of the Engineering Department."
Valentine could only think of the Three Gods Department in Rhode Island.
Mysterious, magical, nerve-wracking.
These three words best describe the Rhode Island Department of Industry.
Even after a thousand years, Valentine still remembered the 'war' armor he encountered when selecting equipment before the Battle of Checheng.
I wonder if the engineering department has perfected that armor now?
The others hadn't arrived yet, Valentin was thinking, and was about to step forward to take a closer look at the weapons, but suddenly he heard the sound of the door opening.
He turned around and a familiar figure came into view.
The man suddenly laughed when he saw Valentine, as if the spring breeze was blowing on his face, making people involuntarily focus on her face.
But there was another emotion in her eyes, as if...
gloat?
"hello."
The girl walked up to Valentine and lightly hammered his shoulder.
"You came quite early."
She completely ignored the warning in Raphael's gaze.
"Franka?"
Valentine looked at the grinning fox in front of him, and felt a chill in his heart.
———————After a while————————
Nothing good could happen if she smiles.
This sentence refers to W. But for Valentine, it could also apply to the fat fox in front of him.
The last time she smiled so happily was the last time.
Terra time a few months ago.
Same test, same people, same smile.
Valentine was lying on the ground, looking at Franka's charming smiling face, and was half-breathed by Lin Dong's "bear mountain pressure".
If the dead fox hadn't quickly called a doctor to save him, Valentine would have felt that this sister was deliberately trying to deal with him.
The prank must have been intentional. She had such a bad temper and she must have wanted to see Valentine get into trouble.
It turned out to be a mess.
Now that I think about it, the invitation after the rookie test was a bit of an apology.
This apology was made by Franca herself, and Valentin must have been unable to bear it and rejected it outright.
The little dragon then succeeded in delaying becoming a man for several months.
Now Franka is standing in front of him in the actual combat test site with a smile on her face...
Valentine had no choice but to pray that the newcomer would not be someone like Herage Silver Ash.
His small body cannot withstand the devastation of the Sword Master.
"Are you the supervisor again?"
Valentine calmed down and looked alert.
"certainly."
Franka picked up the Pad and shook it.
"I had nothing to do, so I took this job."
"Besides, I'm just here to record data this time, and I don't want to cause trouble."
She lowered her arms, crossed her arms, and met Raphael's hostile gaze.
"Can you please stop looking at me like that?"
"Didn't we get along very well at Walden Pond?"
Raphael snorted and said nothing.
But his expression softened a bit.
Xing Yihuang seemed not to notice the friction between them and had been observing the environment in the testing site.
This place is larger than the one she used for actual testing, and the walls are slightly different.
It seems...stronger?
Moreover, there are strange machines arranged in the eight corners of the venue, and there are no blind spots for cameras. I don’t know why.
Maybe it's anti-theft.
she thinks.
While Xing Yihuang was observing the surroundings, Valentin had already asked for the Pad from Franka, which contained the new employee's application form.
The tester has the right to know the new person's information in advance, and he can't wait to know who this person is.
The lock screen was unlocked, and what came into view was a table that was extremely familiar to Valentine.
He ignored the details and looked directly at the photo in the upper right corner.
What caught his eye was a familiar cute face.
"…Ceobe?"
