Chapter 79 Good News and Lists
For Colin now, joining the special search team is no longer his strong goal, or in other words, it is not a necessary option.

It may not be a bad thing for him to be outside the special search team, especially when there is a special search team member with a loose mouth as a stable source of information (Devlin: Hey!).

However, regardless of Ke Lin's attitude towards joining the special search team, judging from what he knows, it is not that easy to join the special search team. After all, it involves prerequisites such as background checks and social relationship investigations. Coupled with the special review and selection mechanism, he was never accepted before.

"Now, the entire selection system has been transferred to Fort Bolsen, and it's ahead of schedule, and I'm put on the selection list without saying a word, and there is no process to go through. I don't believe that there is nothing tricky in it! After all, Strictly speaking, I should be on the special search team's suspicion list, and arranged to live in the same building as Davelin, which means monitoring itself."

Colin ate, calculated and weighed, and quickly determined three relatively large possibilities——

"The first possibility, of course, is that I was exposed, but they are concerned about my strength. After all, the soul of silver can exert the power of the fourth level, so they used this roundabout method to absorb me into the special search team, and then ignore it. It is very convenient to win over, suppress or monitor."

"The second possibility is that I was not exposed, but for some reason, I fell back on the special search team's attention list. They want to check something through me, so in this way, they need to further control me. , and at the same time, it can be regarded as giving a sweet date."

"The third possibility is that this matter is not aimed at me at all, it is a decision of the special search team, which just happens to be convenient for me! Of course, it may also be due to the influence of my paper, Forcing them to use a roundabout method, in short, behind this incident, there must be no coincidence."

"what are you thinking!"

Colin was thinking here.

Over there, Davelyn's mouth was not idle. While eating and drinking, she raised her head and asked, "Didn't you always want to join the special search team? This opportunity is rare, you don't know, I join the special search team." The search team is so difficult, our family... In short, if you plan to seize the opportunity, you will have to go to an interview in two days and fill out some forms."

When Colin heard this, he realized that this was indeed an opportunity for him.

"I have expressed my willingness to join the special search team many times. If I suddenly don't join, even if there is no problem at all, it may cause problems. Therefore, I still have to participate in this assessment. In addition, joining the special search team Maybe you can get in touch with some orthodox mysticism teaching. Of course, the assessment is not teaching, but you can undoubtedly get in touch with other mysticism figures, and most importantly, getting closer to the official is always better than other options."

In view of this, Colin had no reason to refuse, but instead asked some precautions.

Davelin said: "You are asking the right person. If you ask me other things, it may not be easy to answer, but when you ask this, there are very few prohibited items. In addition, I only passed the examination half a year ago. I just have a deep memory and can give You have many answers."

"Half a year ago?" Colin asked curiously, "Did you get promoted to the second rank within half a year?"

"Of course not, I was at the second level before taking the assessment." Davelin stretched out a finger and said seriously: "This is the first thing I want to teach you. Not all the people who take the assessment are beginners. , perhaps most of them are the zero-level who have seen the high wall, or the first-level who have the characteristics, but there are still a lot of people who have the ability themselves, but due to many reasons, they have not been given the opportunity to be assessed, and many people even started from a I started to participate in the assessment at the first level, and I went to the second level, but I didn't succeed!"

"..."

This thing is that if you fail the imperial examination, is there anyone who can go all the way to the second level?

Ke Lin took advantage of the situation and asked, "How often does the assessment take place?"

"Once a year or two, there will be a notice before each assessment. On the one hand, it will be advertised at the Transcendent Academy under the Defense Bureau, which is regarded as internal recruitment; on the other hand, it will be open to registered Transcendents in the society. You belong to the latter! Fortunately, I reported it to you in time, otherwise it would not be your turn!" Davelin felt admiration for herself again, and then said happily: "However, this is not a bad thing for you. Guess, why those people Can you be promoted from Tier [-] to Tier [-] in the assessment? Why couldn't it be before?"

"Did they get help during the assessment?"

"Correct! A lot of information, because of discipline, I can't tell you, but those who take part in the assessment are not restricted until they pass, and you can get a lot of information from them! Many people have mastered it, which is better than searching The team is poor!" Davelin said earnestly: "You know, every year there are many extraordinary people who walk alone and can't find a way out. They entrust their connections to participate in the assessment, knowing that they will not pass, but they flock to it, just for this! "

But Colin asked: "You said they knew they couldn't pass? Why? Because they are social people?"

Davelin shook her head and said: "Of course not, because many lone travelers have too many criminal records and complicated backgrounds, and the special search team pays attention to some purity. Of course, it does not mean that they cannot contribute to the country. Other organizations specialize in recruiting these people, but the treatment is definitely not as good as that of the special search team."

This answer confirmed part of Ke Lin's guess. He nodded and asked again: "Since the participants have different ranks, what kind of assessment can allow the first and second ranks to compete in the same field and ensure fairness?" ?”

"The special search team doesn't value all combat power. The specific assessment items are different every year, and the one I participated in..."

Colin listened carefully, wanting to refer to it.

"...It involves prohibited items, so I can't tell you."

"..."

"In short, seize this opportunity! In my opinion, your chances of passing are very high!" Devlin gave him a thumbs up while eating the meal Colin cooked.

"Okay, I probably understand, don't worry, I will participate." Colin nodded.

"That's good!" Devlin also nodded, and then felt wrong, "Why did you say it so reluctantly, didn't you look forward to it before?"

Ke Lin explained: "The news came suddenly, and the assessment seems to be not easy, so I must be a little nervous."

"Well, it makes sense." Devlin still nodded, and she suddenly remembered something: "By the way, how do you know that I am a second-order? I remember..."

"You said it," Colin interrupted the other party calmly, creating false memories for the other party, "while boasting."

"Well, it seems that there is such a thing! Also, I am not boasting!"

The conversation ended at Davelyn's protest.

"This is not bad news. I took the initiative to intervene and even joined the special search team. I can get a lot of first-hand information, which is more convenient for me to hide in a low-key manner."

With this in mind, Colin slept until dawn.

When he got up, he found that Davelin had gone.

"Did you really come here to inform me? Did you go back to work overtime?"

Shaking his head, he tidied up briefly, as if he was going to spend another day of the same, two o'clock and one line, but when he was about to go to work, he met a postman at the door.

"Excuse me, do you know Mr. Colin Waldo?"

"If you're looking for Colin Waldo, then I am." Colin pointed to himself.

"Great!" The postman took out an envelope from the bag, "There is your letter."

Colin's eyes changed slightly. Of course he remembered the letter in the mailbox of his apartment.

So, next week may not be next week, it really is this week.

"Speaking of which, don't you worry about being noticed by the special search team when the letter is delivered?"

With this in mind, he watched the courier leave, then went back to the house and opened the envelope.

This letter has a clear mailing address and stamps, but the sender wrote a code name of "Mr. Hei", and the address is——

"Bolsenburg Museum?"

In doubt, he pulled out two folded papers from the envelope.

On the back of the first one was written "Te Brown's List of Rats."

Colin frowned, then looked at the second picture, and was stunned.

It says--

Experiment log number 00197.

　There are too many things at home, and it's too late to make changes...
