I Am Not The Machine King - Chapter 32
Chapter 32: Hundred Flowers Forest!
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The entire Qingshan City was only this big. There were only a few top-notch geniuses in Diyi Middle School, Dier Middle School, and Disan Middle School.
Even if they hadn’t had much contact with each other, they still had some understanding.
The surrounding freshmen, who had been volunteering themselves, quieted down after hearing that Han Yu had taken the initiative to join them. They began to look for other teammates.
Judging from the configuration of these four people, it was obvious that they were going to form an elite team to achieve excellent results. There were no longer any spots for them.
While Lin Yuan and the others were still discussing, two or three teams of five people had already finished registering and were walking toward the Hundred Flowers Forest in the dark.
…
“There’s still one more spot.”
“Lin Yuan, who are you going to pick?”
With Han Yu and Jiang Yining, two level three martial artists, joining, Wu Di was full of confidence.
From the looks of it, their team of four was the most elite in the entire Qingshan City. Quite a few powerful martial artists were coveting the last position.
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and raised his head.
“We have to bring a medical-type martial artist.”
Han Yu, who was at the side, immediately frowned when he heard this. Wu Di was also stunned.
Most of the medical-type martial artists were women. Moreover, even if they were men, their physical fitness was generally inferior to combat-type martial artists. It would only slow down their overall speed.
However, before Han Yu could refute, Jiang Yining immediately nodded in agreement.
“That’s right.”
Han Yu and Wu Di, the two idiots looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other’s eyes.
Wu Di could not help but ask, “Why?”
Lin Yuan put the useful things in his backpack into his interspatial ring and answered, “Do you think this assessment is as simple as hiking a thousand kilometers?”
“Let’s see how many days your food and water can last.”
After Lin Yuan said that, Han Yu and Wu Di immediately opened their interspatial rings that they had just received and widened their eyes.
Although there seemed to be a lot of food, a martial artist could only last seven days at most!
Before the two of them could regain their senses, Lin Yuan’s voice was heard again.
“If you want to obtain food in the wild, you can only look for beasts.”
“What if someone is injured and there are no medical-type martial artists?”
After thinking carefully, Lin Yuan and Jiang Yining realized that this was not a single cross-country test.
This was a simulation mission that allowed them to change from a “student mentality” to a “warrior mentality”.
Team, survival, battle, mission, willpower.
The Tianshui Army team was a team of ten people. It was impossible to abandon a comrade in battle.
From the moment they entered the military academy, the military academy had already started to cultivate their team consciousness.
Once one person was injured, how would the entire team reach the target location within twenty-five days?
Lin Yuan had always wanted to enter the military academy, so he had some understanding of the Tianshui Army team mode.
Every 10-man team would be equipped with a medical-type martial artist.
Jiang Yining added, “A medical-type martial artist can not only improve the team’s fault tolerance, but it will also be of great help to our daily recovery.”
“The four of us will definitely have enough combat power.”
Wu Di and Han Yu were enlightened.
No wonder Lin Yuan and Jiang Yining had 150 points and 148 points for liberal arts respectively.
Their train of thought was indeed much clearer.
…
In the corner of the venue.
A group of female medical-type martial artists, who had no one paying attention to, looked at the combat-type martial artists who were discussing their teams in full swing.
Their expressions were awful.
Almost all the teams treated them as a burden, the shortest plank in the barrel effect.
“Hmph, at worst, we can form our own teams.”
“Who cares about forming a team with them…”
A few girls felt wronged for a moment, and some of the fragile girls even started to cry.
At this moment, they still didn’t know how popular outstanding medical-type martial artists would be once they entered the military academy!
At this moment, a path was made in the center of the venue.
Lin Yuan, Wu Di, Han Yu, and Jiang Yining, who had rejected the application of two level three martial artists to join them, came before a group of beautiful girls.
Han Yu waved at a girl in the crowd and said, “Jiang Lu, come.”
“We need a medical-type martial artist. Come to our team.”
Hearing Han Yu’s invitation, not only were the medical-type martial artists stunned, even the combat-type martial artists who were forming a team stopped their discussion and looked over.
“What’s going on?”
“I don’t know.”
“Why would they choose her?”
…
Jiang Lu had never thought that Han Yu would invite her to join the team.
Although they were both students of Dier Middle School, she was a commoner martial artist. She only knew Han Yu in school and didn’t have much interaction with him.
This elite team of Qingshan City would actually invite her?
Han Yu asked, “Can you hold on?”
Jiang Lu hesitated for a second, then nodded firmly and said, “Yes!”
Since Han Yu and Lin Yuan were not afraid of her dragging the team down, what was there for her to hesitate?
Lin Yuan smiled slightly and said, “Let’s go and register.”
Seeing the five of them walking toward the registration office, the people around finally realized that Lin Yuan and the others were serious.
“Why?”
“Why!”
For a team as strong as this to bring a medical-type martial artist, there must be a reason behind it.
While these martial artists were discussing, the five of them had already finished registering.
[Lin Yuan, mechanical-type, level two, ten meridians.]
[Jiang Lu, medical-type, level two, eleven meridians.]
[Wu Di, lightning-type, level three, one gate.]
[Han Yu, fire-type, level three, one gate.]
[Jiang Yining, thunder-type, level three, two gates.]
After the five of them left the military base, the female instructor, Zheng Yin, drew a circle on the registration form of the team.
After getting on the car, she looked at the files of this batch of freshmen. There was not much worth paying attention to. The configuration of this team had a chance to become outstanding.
At this moment, inside the military base, thousands of large screens were showing the real-time situation of the route from the base to the military academy.
Even the body of the ferocious beast was equipped with a mechanical chip to perfectly control it.
There were quite some helicopters circling the entire route, ready to rescue the freshmen whose lives might be in danger at any time.
This kind of freshmen assessment was basically zero danger. Although the death rate of the military academies was high, that was only after the second or third year when they were on a mission.
…
Hundred Flowers Forest.
The dense foliage blocked most of the moonlight. At a glance, it was filled with lush ancient trees that stretched as far as the eye could see.
What was even stranger was that there seemed to be not much life in this forest.
Han Yu swallowed his saliva. He was clearly a little scared.
“F*ck…”
“Why does it feel a little eerie?”
“Is fire needed?”
With the help of the weak starlight, the five of them could barely find their way forward, but they still felt a little scared.
They had rested in the car for a whole day and did not consume any energy, so almost all the teams chose to travel overnight.
Even Wu Di and Jiang Yining, two level three martial artists, were a little nervous and followed closely behind Lin Yuan.
From the moment the team was formed, Lin Yuan naturally became the team leader.
“Light it up.”
“It’s fine.”
Normally, there wouldn’t be any large fierce beasts in the forest. Han Yu rubbed his hands together and quickly lit two torches.
At this moment, a heart-wrenching scream came from the other side of the Hundred Flowers Forest, breaking the tranquility of the Hundred Flowers Forest!
“Ahhhh….”
