NOVEL NEXT God-level Soul Sword System
Chapter 17 Announcing Results
Three days passed quickly.
The time for the actual combat assessment was finally over, and the navy's assembly signal resounded over the island, so the recruits stopped their actions one after another, and walked out of the forest.
In fact, by the second day, the number of ferocious beasts in the forest had been greatly reduced. On the last day, there were hardly many ferocious beasts. Even the first-class ferocious beasts were killed by a large number of recruits.
When leaving the forest, many recruits passed through a burnt black area that looked like hell. Looking at this area, these recruits could not help but feel lingering fear.
"Fortunately, I hid far away in advance and was not involved."
"It's all burned up here. It's a terrible forest fire, but... how did it start?"
"Who knows?"
The recruits passed by in twos and threes, looking at this area, they couldn't help but show strange colors, and talked one after another.
In fact, although no one was involved in the sea of flames on the first day, the sea of flames affected the beasts in the entire forest, causing them to fall into a panic and berserk state, almost forming a beast tide. As a result, the difficulty of this actual combat assessment has greatly increased.
At this moment, outside the forest.
Roja was the first to walk out of the forest. If he would occasionally hunt and kill a few ferocious beasts on the second day, then on the third day, when almost no ferocious beasts were seen at all, Roja would Arrived at the edge of the forest early and waited.
Tina was not with Roja. After Roja extinguished the forest fire, she left alone. After all, she has a very strong personality and doesn't like to rely on others.
Outside the forest, Garp had been waiting here early.
Seeing Roja coming out, Garp stepped forward, patted Roja's shoulder forcefully, and said with a big grin, "Stinky boy, you can make trouble, but... you did a good job!"
Although Roja's commotion was a bit big, and even affected the entire actual combat assessment, Garp himself is a maverick and doesn't like people who are bound by various rules. Roja's huge commotion is actually very suitable for him Appetite, even reminded him of his youth.
Some of the surrounding admirals also looked at Roja with strange expressions.
Born with sword intent, and it is still a flame-type sword intent, as long as Roja does not die halfway, it will be a matter of time to surpass them, at least he can become a vice admiral.
So their attitude towards Roja is naturally completely different, and the way they look at Roja is no longer the way they look at recruits.
but.
Garp's slap made Roja grin his teeth inwardly.
This stinky old man is really not polite at all. If his physique hadn't improved a lot these days, I'm afraid he would really slap him to pieces.
The corner of Roja's mouth twitched, and he looked at Garp angrily.
"Does your hand hurt?"
"Uh...hahaha."
Garp was embarrassed at first, but he had already gotten used to Roja's way of speaking, so he raised his big hand on Roja's shoulder, scratched the back of his head, and continued to laugh twice.
Roja sighed helplessly, rubbing his shoulders and walking aside with a melancholy expression.
Gradually, the recruits began to come out of the forest one after another. Most of them looked rather embarrassed, and there were more or less signs of fighting on their bodies.
In addition to the recruits participating in the actual combat assessment, the rescue team specially set up for this actual combat assessment also kept shuttling back and forth in the forest.
After all, this is a forest, and it is normal to get lost. Not everyone can return to the starting point. Fortunately, there are surveillance cameras everywhere in the forest, so it only took half a day to clean the forest thoroughly.
After all, there were still some casualties, but most of them were just injuries, and there were only two deaths.
This is much better than fighting pirates. If fighting pirates is directly used as an actual combat assessment, the casualties may be at least ten times higher.
Except for the seriously injured recruits, the slightly injured or uninjured recruits have half a day to rest and recuperate. This half day is also the time for the assessment team to sort out the assessment results, and it is also the time for the warship to return to the Navy headquarters.
Soon, half a day passed, and the warship finally returned to the Navy headquarters.
In a square of the Navy Headquarters, except for Roja who didn't come because he was with Garp, and some seriously injured recruits who couldn't gather, the other recruits had already sorted out and assembled here.
Seeing that the admiral who announced the results had not yet appeared, the recruits who had assembled began to whisper among each other, and many of them were beaming with joy.
"How many have you hunted?"
"Hey, I hunted at least three third-level creatures. As for the fourth-level and fifth-level creatures, there are too many to distinguish." A recruit said with a little satisfaction.
"Tch, I hunted and killed a second-level creature!"
Another recruit said disdainfully, the difficulty of each level of fierce beasts is several times different, and the scores obtained are at least several times different.
This sentence immediately made the surrounding recruits look over with surprise, and many of them even showed a hint of envy. It's not that they didn't encounter the second-level creatures, but they couldn't hunt and kill them after encountering them, so they could only run away in embarrassment. .
"By the way, who do you think No.1 will be this time?"
"It must be Drake. I heard that he hunted and killed a first-level creature alone."
Hearing this sentence, the recruits around couldn't help but gasp. They had already heard about the power of the first-level creatures before the assessment.
Even the recruits of the elite battalion may not be able to securely defeat a first-level creature in a one-on-one situation. Drake was able to hunt and kill a first-level creature by himself. This kind of strength is obviously completely superior to other people. superior.
Based on this alone, he is fully qualified to enter the elite camp!
Many people couldn't help looking at Drake in the crowd, all showing awe.
And at this moment, footsteps finally came from the front of the square, and all the recruits stopped talking for an instant, and all raised their heads and looked forward.
"Take a break, stand at attention!"
"The scores have been counted. This is the result of your actual combat assessment. It will be announced now."
The leading rear admiral spoke with a serious face, and the several naval officers next to him each pulled up a curtain, held a projection phone bug, and projected a ranking onto the curtain.
All the recruits in the navy could not help staring at the curtain. First, they searched for their respective names. After seeing their achievements, some breathed a sigh of relief, while others showed unwilling expressions. It is elated.
And after reading their own results, many recruits began to look up, but they didn't find the name they were looking for.
Just when these recruits looked suspicious, a voice came.
"The results of the top ten are not here, I will read them directly."
The rear admiral standing at the front had a serious face and spoke in a serious tone, and then asked the generals to put away the curtains and projection phone bugs, and at the same time picked up a list.
Seeing this, the recruits suddenly came to a sudden, and then heard the rear admiral start to read familiar names one by one.
"No.10, Saul!"
"No.9, Huon!"
"..."
After reading out several names in a row, the recruits below showed no signs of change. Obviously, they were all about the same as they expected. At most, the rankings were switched up and down.
"No.4, Hughes!"
As the ranking got higher and higher, the tone of the rear admiral gradually slowed down. When he read No.5 or above, he would pause after reading.
Hearing Hughes' name, many of the recruits below were a little impatient, and began to discuss with strange expressions.
"Hughes is very strong, he should be able to enter the top three, but unexpectedly he was squeezed to fourth."
"That's a little weird."
The rear admiral ignored the arguments of these recruits, but after glancing at the recruits in front of him, he continued to read.
"No.3, Drake!"
As soon as the name was pronounced, the audience was instantly silent.
Not only Drake himself, but even the recruits present were all stunned, showing a bit of disbelief.
Drake... is only the third? !
