People are full of pirates

Chapter 149 Highly anticipated [33, updated]

"The first item, strength test!"

An instructor stood on the high platform and yelled angrily, "Everyone lined up in five rows. This time we specially mobilized five strength testing machines from the Science Research Institute of the headquarters to conduct the test at the same time!"

All the recruits subconsciously glanced to the right of the platform.

There, five instructors stood with their hands behind their hands, and behind them, there were five huge black machines lined up side by side.

They are very familiar with this kind of machine, and they have to deal with this thing in every daily and monthly assessment.

When they were new recruits, it was pretty good to be able to hit [-] or above, but now that time has passed and they are about to graduate, they can hit at least [-] on average.

Among them, the most outstanding players can even hit more than [-], but they are still far from the upper limit that the machine can measure.

The main reason is that a few months ago, the scientific research institute of the headquarters, for some reason, specially dispatched manpower to upgrade and maintain this machine with great effort, raising the original measurement limit of more than [-] to about [-].

It doubled in size.

This makes many of the prospective graduates wonder.

——Why waste this kind of energy for no reason, are you still worried that these recruits who haven't graduated can't break the machine?
It's just unfounded worrying, it hurts to be idle.

At the forefront of the five teams, standing in the middle was a red-haired young man wearing a half mask, with a strong figure and strong muscles.

"I'll come first."

He clenched his fists confidently and said with a grin, "It's early in the morning, just as a good start for everyone and to boost your spirits!"

"Haha, come on, Bastiew!"

"You're the best guy in our class, that's how it should be!"

"Show off some momentum for number one!"

The elite sailors behind them clamored, expecting Bastiyu to work harder and perform exceptionally well.

——It’s hopeless to surpass that monster called Nuoxia, but they can’t be suppressed too badly, and lose all their face this year, right?
"Hey, don't worry!"

Bastiyu, who was like a red-haired ghost, stared at the machine in front of him. After taking a deep breath, he suddenly poured all his energy into it, and punched it!
Boom!
The huge black machine trembled slightly, and amidst the dull sound, a rather gorgeous number jumped out of the display above the scale.

"2021! Bastiyu, S+ grade, individual strength, perfect evaluation!"

The instructor in front of this machine glanced at the screen, and said in a deep voice while recording and writing, "Very good! Bastiyu, it's improved compared to the previous few times!"

"We must work hard to maintain the remaining assessment items, keep going!"

"No problem, instructor!"

Bastiyu laughed out loud, apparently quite satisfied with his own performance, and under the envious and amazed eyes of everyone, he turned and walked back.

When he passed by Nuo Xia, his pace slowed down, and he glanced at the latter intentionally or unintentionally from the corner of his eyes.

——My performance this time is excellent enough, even among the graduates in recent years, it is also at the level of a monster, and how far can the other party lead me?

Nuo Xia sensed his gaze, turned her face sideways, and smiled kindly at him.

"..."

Bastiou was stunned for a moment, feeling his heart beating rapidly. He hurriedly lowered his head, speeded up silently, and returned to the back row of the line.

isn't it...

This person looks quite fierce, why suddenly and shyly like a little girl?
Nuo Xia looked away speechlessly, he didn't use the skill of grinning, who would have imagined this guy's reaction is so big, can't be his fault, right?
In front of the team, the strength assessment is still going on.

With Bastiew making a good start, the sailors who came later seemed to have been injected with a booster, and the overall performance was quite good, exceeding the usual level.

There are many people who have scored more than [-], and there are quite a few who are close to [-]. The instructors who are in charge of teaching this year's graduates are nodding with satisfaction, and their hearts are full of happiness...

Soon, it was Nuo Xia's turn.

He is standing in the rightmost line, which is relatively biased.

But when he came to the machine, even though his vision was blocked, all the sailors temporarily stopped what they were doing, tiptoeing hard to cast their gazes.

I want to see with my own eyes, what kind of terrifying numbers this recruit, who can be called the number one monster in the history of the elite battalion, can hit.

however.

It's a pity that some people don't give them this opportunity.

Because the instructor in charge of the machine on the far right happened to be an acquaintance of Nuo Xia.

"..."

Brandon, with a grass-green cockscomb head, squinted his eyes at Nuo Xia at his feet.

Seeing the latter's eagerness to fight, the corners of his eyes twitched, he finally couldn't hold back, and at the moment when Nuo Xia was about to punch, he took a step forward and yelled loudly:

"stop!"

Click.

Nuo Xia, who was ready to go, staggered forward and almost fell to the ground. He rubbed his twisted waist and raised his head in dissatisfaction:

"What are you doing, Mr. Brandon, can you stop calling suddenly at such a time? It hurts when you twist your waist, okay?"

The instructors next to him also stopped recording and cast doubtful glances at Brandon.

What are you looking at me for?Am I not here to protect the machine and reduce losses?

Do you know why the research institute of the headquarters suddenly maintained and upgraded the testing machine a few months ago!
"that……"

Brandon's heart hurts, but he still tried his best to keep calm, coughed and said in a deep voice:

"You don't need to take the test, I'll just mark you with the highest rating."

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the open space below.

"Huh? Is there such a thing?"

"Mr. Brandon, how could you do this? This is Chiguoguo's dark story... Oh, it's not a black story, but it's also against the rules of the assessment!"

"Yeah, even if this guy can indeed get the highest rating, let's see the exact number, right?"

"That's right! Everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time, my neck is sore, how can I just let him skip it!"

Hearing the voice behind his ears, Nuo Xia looked up at Brandon, shrugged helplessly and said:
"Look, everyone is waiting for me to make a move. What should I say now, instructor?"

"I still don't think it's necessary!"

Brandon ignored the dissatisfaction and opposition from below, and stood in front of the machine, refusing to give an inch, "If you question the fairness, you can go and complain to Mr. Zefa, I believe he will agree with me..."

"Don't say that, Mr. Brandon."

Suddenly a voice came from the high platform behind him, but it was the two major generals sent by the headquarters to supervise who spoke.

Major General Dalmesia, wearing a black and white spotted dog hat, lit a cigar and said with a smile:
"Everyone didn't question your character, but just wanted to see how terrifying the strength of this guy Nuo Xia is..."

"Yes, you should get out of the way." Dauberman also said indifferently, "This is what everyone expects, why bother to dampen everyone's interest."

"To put it bluntly, I borrowed these machines from the scientific research institute of the headquarters." Brandon folded his arms and snorted, "You two are just watching the fun, and it's not a big deal. If the machine breaks down, will you two pay for it?"

"What's the matter?" Dalmesia was startled for a moment, and then agreed without hesitation, "If you pay, you can pay, no problem!"

"..." Dauberman glanced at Nuo Xia, hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to believe in the quality of the machines in the research institute of the headquarters, and nodded slightly, "I have no objection."

Naive young general.

Brandon let out a melancholy sigh from someone who had experienced it. He was so naive at the beginning—speaking of which, it seems that the cost of this upgraded test machine seems to be even more exaggerated. One set costs nearly [-] million Baileys?

"In this case……"

He glanced at the two major generals sympathetically, took a step back, got out of the way in front of the machine, and said to Nuo Xia in a low voice:
"Then I won't stop you, you can grasp the strength yourself, until you reach the end... Do you understand?"

　Make up for the third update last night, and there are two guaranteed updates today.
