One punch hunter..

Chapter 20 The Exam Begins

The southwestern city of Hanhai City, the border.

On the steel fence stretching around the city, there is a heavy mechanical door.The entire wall surrounds the central city for a week, completely surrounding the central city.

The range of the fence is the farthest range that the particle barrier can cover. The light blue particle barrier almost completely overlaps with the fence, forming the first barrier to stop wild beasts.

At this time, the mechanical door has opened.

Adjacent to the mechanical door is an inspection area that occupies a large area. It is also surrounded by a steel fence, which can be regarded as a part of the steel fence.

All people entering and leaving the fence must first enter the inspection area, and they can only pass after the inspection is correct.

The inspection area here has been temporarily requisitioned by the Hunter Alliance, and the venue is crowded with hundreds of people waiting.

A young man in a black combat uniform is looking at the time on his watch.

And everyone in the field glanced at him inadvertently.

The three-star hunter of the Hunter Alliance, Ryoma, is the person in charge of the initial assessment.

Among the crowd, a strong man with a skull tattooed on his left face was staring at Ryoma's position without hiding the curiosity in his eyes.

"This kid looks very young, isn't he under 20 years old? He's already a three-star hunter? I really want to try his depth..."

The strong man said, licking his lips.

"Hehehehe... You really don't know how to live or die. If you dare to do it, you probably won't survive for two seconds."

Not far in front of the strong man, a man with blond long hair said in a strange way.

This man was handsome, but he had an uncomfortable sense of femininity. Coupled with his long golden hair, the strong man felt a chill.

"Hey, you yellow-haired bitch, when you enter the wilderness area, I will definitely let you have a good time..."

The strong man said, licking his lips excitedly.

At this moment, the watch on Ryoma's hand rang.

Ryoma saw that the person requesting a communication was Phil Negrino, the chief examiner of the exam, and hurriedly connected.

On the projection of the watch, Phil was a little absent-minded: "Ryoma, how are your preparations going?"

Long Ma hurriedly said: "Examiner, there should be 730 people, but there are 719 people."

Phil nodded: "Well, it's almost there, anyway, people will be late every year. Let's start right away. Those who are late will wait another half an hour. If they exceed half an hour, they will be disqualified."

Ryoma nodded: "Yes, examiner."

Phil said again: "Also, I still have Mr. Situ Yuan's affairs to deal with. You will be in charge of the first few assessments. I will go directly to the examination venue for the last assessment."

After Phil finished speaking, he hung up the call directly.

Long Ma shook his head, thinking: "These four-star hunters are really busy people."

After finishing the call, Ryoma came to the middle of the field.

"Attention candidates, I am the examiner of this hunter assessment, Ryoma. Next, the hunter assessment will start immediately, please listen carefully to the assessment rules."

There was silence for a moment, and everyone listened carefully to Ryoma's introduction of the exam rules.

After Ryoma tapped his watch a few times, a holographic map appeared in front of everyone.

"Your destination is Base No. 230, 47 kilometers away, which is the ruins of the original A7 satellite city."

"The time limit is 7 days! Within seven days, you must arrive at Base 47, and if you exceed the time limit, you will be deemed to have failed the assessment!"

"As for the means of transportation... there is no limit! You can drive a car, or use an aircraft—as long as you have one. However, there is another condition for this assessment..."

"That is, in the process of heading to Base 47, each person must hunt and kill 15 beast soldier-level wild beasts, or 3 general-level wild beasts, or 1 lord-level wild beast!"

"When hunting, the animal nucleus must be taken out of the desolate beast and brought back. We will track the itinerary of each candidate."

Ryoma scanned the audience and observed everyone's reactions.

After hearing the requirements of the assessment, the expressions on most people's faces were relatively relaxed. After all, three options were provided. Even if you can't kill the Beast General, you can pass the level by killing a few Beast Soldiers.

"in addition……"

"Everyone present, you can form a team freely, and multiple people can hunt the same wild beast. However, you can distribute the beast cores you get within your team!"

"We only pay attention to two points during the final inspection: first, whether all your beast cores are attended by non-hunter assessors, if so, the results will be invalid!"

"Secondly, does the total number of beast cores you provide match the number of wild beasts that have been hunted! If you use the purchased beast cores to fill up the number, the result will be invalid!"

"Also, I want to remind you one thing. Don't think that passing the test is enough. At the end, we will rank each person according to the number of beast cores turned in. This ranking will affect the next stage of assessment!"

"Do you have any other questions?"

After Ryoma finished speaking, he looked around at everyone in the arena.

"I noticed that you just said that if there are non-assessment members participating in the killing of the desolate beast, the result will be invalid, right?"

The blond long-haired man before asked.

Ryoma nodded: "That's right."

The blond long-haired man showed a meaningful smile: "As long as the beast core obtained by the assessment member is valid. If I understand correctly, it is also valid to snatch other people's beast core, right?"

Ryoma nodded: "That's right, as long as you snatch it from other assessment members, it's fine!"

The blond long-haired man let out a burst of inexplicable laughter, and then said: "Thank you examiner, I understand."

Hearing this, everyone present felt a "thud" in their hearts, and finally understood the key point of this assessment.

Obtaining the beast cores of 15 beast-level desolate beasts is not difficult at all in a team state, and it is not difficult to travel 7 kilometers within 230 days.

The key lies in the competition among candidates!
They can snatch each other's beast cores, and they will eventually be ranked according to the number of beast cores. In other words, the candidates' enemies are not those wild beasts, but other candidates!

Longma nodded in satisfaction. Since some candidates took the initiative to ask questions, it would save him from wasting his time and making more introductions.

"The last point, during the assessment process, killing people is strictly prohibited! No matter what the reason is, the murderer will be directly disqualified from this assessment!"

Ryoma's tone of voice rose significantly when he said this.

"Then, does that mean that the fight between the candidates can only seriously injure each other at most?"

asked a little boy with chestnut hair.Surprisingly, his pupils turned out to be white.

Ryoma nodded: "Yes, as long as there is no death, it is not a violation."

Hearing this, some people in the venue were quite excited, while others were full of worries.

"Okay, the rules have been explained." Longma pointed at the mechanical door, "Candidates who are ready can go. The examination end time is seven days later at 12:47 noon. I will wait for you at base [-]!"

Soon, more than 700 candidates began to form teams freely, crossed the steel fence, and headed for the wilderness area.

Many of these candidates came together, and of course they directly formed a team.Others came by themselves, so they simply contacted other people here to form a team, and then went after forming a team.

Everyone can see that since there is no limit to team formation, the more people the better, as long as you hunt enough wild beasts.
