The First Evolution

Chapter 270: The Deceased

Running with weight was not difficult for Fang Linyan. After all, he had Basic Endurance LV3, and the digitalized body was strong, so he also successfully completed the test. However, his grades could only be regarded as intermediate.

The most striking thing about this test was that a burly black man named Burwell actually chose to run an 8km with a weight of 60kg!

The weight of an ordinary soldier’s five-kilometer cross-country is at most 30 kilograms.

This guy chose twice the difficulty, and the completion time was also quite fast.

That alone could probably get him selected.

The last written test surprised Fang Linyan, it was about survival in the wild.

Since he experienced the adventure world, he knew that he was likely to face various extreme environments, so he had already had a deep understanding of various kinds of knowledge such as survival in the wild, first aid, etc. For him, it was just a free test.

The test was quite special. Each section would be divided into 15 sub-sections, and each sub-section worth 10 points.

The full score for each section was 150 points, and the total score was 450 points.

In the end, Fang Linyan scored 130 points for shooting, 100 points for running with weights, 140 points for survival in the wild, and the final total score was 370 points.

After Tana and the other 2 instructor-like people talked to each other, they began to tick off the list. At this time, Fang Linyan felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. If I hide my strength too much that I can’t be selected, that will be embarrassing.

Fortunately, Fang Linyan realized that he was the third person to be called, which made him feel relieved quickly, and he also roughly understood Tana’s selection criteria. It should be prioritizing all-around candidates.

After knowing this standard, he could infer a lot of things.

First, the requirements for shooting indicated that the place to go was relatively dangerous. The stun gun or anesthesia gun was used during the assessment, indicating that they had to capture something alive.

Second, running with weight means that the missions relied mostly on stamina. There would be long hours of weight-bearing tracking.

Third, the ability to survive in the wild meant that the place to be was very remote and the stay was very long. They must have the ability to continue the mission without any supplies.

Therefore, in general, the secret mission carried out by the Duckland Company this time should mainly focus on exploring areas with low supplies. After achieving the general objective, they would spread up. Those who performed greatly in 3 tests undoubtedly had more advantage and power.

As expected, only 5 people were eliminated in this round of testing, and the remaining number was 42.

Tana quickly completed the grouping. Fang Linyan himself did not expect to become the group leader of the third group. There were 3 people under him, the burly black man Burwell was on the list, and the other 2 were named Lauder and Thomason.

After the grouping was completed, Tana announced that they would execute a 1-week mission, and they couldn’t communicate with the outside world during this period.

Therefore, the selected person could be dismissed and go home to deal with their own affairs, but they must arrive at the company before 4 pm, otherwise they would be disqualified.

Fang Linyan looked at the time and found that it was 10 am, which meant that he had nearly 6 hours of free time. Needless to say, he must find a way to craft the mechanical core first!

The mechanical core he crafted in the real world couldn’t be brought in, and the combat power of the mechanical soldier and mechanical warrant was significantly different.

Hence, the question arose. Even if he could bring a few basic tools with Nicholas Flamel Toolbox, he needed at least thousands of dollars to purchase the relevant materials. How should Fang Linyan solve the shortage of money as quickly as possible?

Fortunately, Fang Linyan already had a plan. As the time was tight, he could only use some drastic methods.

He returned to the place where he rested, checked the map, and left the company. After 6 stops on the subway, he got off and came to the area where black people lived together. This place had always been a crime-prone area. If a decent car drove in, the left and right mirrors would be gone 10 minutes later.

And the people who do this kind of thing were still teenage brats. They were under the scope of the child protection law, so no one could anything to them, but they dared to stab someone with a knife.

When Fang Linyan was walking in this place, it was already 11 am. He was being targeted soon because of his skin color. He deliberately walked into an alley, and 3 immediately 3 black teenagers followed in and blocked him.

2 minutes later, the 3 unlucky guys had already rolled on the ground in pain. Beside Fang Linyan stood the mechanical soldier with a blank face who had the appearance of an ordinary man.

Fang Linyan squatted down and searched a mere 20 dollars and a knife on their bodies, then he said indifferently,

“Listen, lads, I just want to know where to get this…”

After finishing speaking, Fang Linyan raised his finger and wiped it under his nose and took a deep breath. A black boy quickly said in pain,

“I know… if I tell you, will you let us go?”

Fang Linyan smiled and said,

“That’s a deal.”

10 minutes later, Fang Linyan stood on the side of the street and looked at the surrounding buildings leisurely. He would stick up his middle finger to the rude black brats who passed by him.

Then, he heard a loud noise from the door of the bar across the street, and an unlucky guy whose face was bleeding heavily flew out together with the door. After falling, he fainted.

Immediately afterward, the mechanical soldier walked out from the gate. Its shirt was obviously damaged in several places. There were even a few smoking bullet holes on its back, and its right hand was carrying a small bag.

Fang Linyan gestured to the mechanical soldier, then it striped off the suit of the unlucky guy and put it on to cover the abnormality on its body. They turned at the corner of the street calmly and entered an alley.

2 minutes later, Fang Linyan, who had deactivated the mechanical soldier, walked out and took a taxi.

He now has more than 10,000 dollars on him, so the next destination was to find a machinery factory.

***

At the same time,

Seattle, inside the LaSalle Building.

This building, which could accommodate 25,000 people to entertain, work and study at the same time, still looked very lively from the outside, which was no different from usual.

However, the 84th floor of the building was already full of corpses.

The blood even made the ground wet. When people walked over, footprints could be seen on the blood.

A man screamed miserably, then he ran toward the elevator. But as he just ran for 10 meters, a blade light flashed.

The man’s movements immediately stiffened. Although he still habitually ran a few steps forward, his arms were already swaying randomly and his body lost balance and ran into the wall. When he fell to the ground, he had turned into a twitching corpse.

The man’s warm blood flowed out from his neck. Before he died, he swung his arms around and scratched a few blood marks on the wall.

Above the blood marks was the company’s name.

“Sanshang Pharmaceutical”

Suddenly, a rough voice said in annoyance,

“Shania, can you wait for me to ask for information before killing them? Our mission this time is to find that M Confidential Document, not to see who kills more!”

The speaker was a big man with a beard on his face, and he was quite dissatisfied.

Hearing this person’s words, Shania, who was carrying a long blade in the distance, turned around abruptly. At this time, she was covered in blood, and her face was full of murderous aura like a Shura that crawled out of hell.

Then, without saying a word, she just dragged the blade and walked toward the big man step by step.

The big man immediately panicked, and he instinctively took a step back,

“Hey! What are you doing? We are teammates!”

At this time, an indifferent voice said,

“Stop, Shania, I have something that you will surely be interested in!”

Shania stayed in place for 3 seconds as if thinking seriously about the meaning of the voice, then she slowly withdrew the blade back into the sheath and walked toward the man who spoke.

The person who spoke indifferently was wearing a very simple-looking gray shirt. His hair was very short. The green scalp could be faintly seen through the hair. He was just standing there, but he exuded a suffocating aura.

Yes, he was Evil Zen.

After Shania came to Evil Zen, she looked up at him silently.

Evil Zen stretched out his slender fingers, gently wiped away a few blood stains on Shania’s white cheeks, and whispered,

“I just received a message worth 3,000 common points.”

As Evil Zen said this, he, who had always been calm as a mountain, showed a hint of relief in his eyes.

“My little cutie, soul equipment: The Hungry Mr. Lannister Tyrion has appeared.”

Shania didn’t speak, but the blade was clashing with the sheath, making clanging sounds. Obviously, her mood was in an unstable state. It took a few minutes before she said with difficulty,

“Is the news reliable?”

Evil Zen said,

“The person who sold me the information didn’t dare to lie. It was very reliable. Someone used a scroll, a bottle of golden Felix Felicis and my little cutie to exchange a bracelet from Arctic Circle.”

TL: Evil Zen vs Arctic Circle? Did Shania break through the human limit and survive after being killed by Fang Linyan (Chapter 168)?
