Chapter 44: Level 3 exam

The examination time for the second-level mecha repairer started at 8:00 a.m. on August 12th in the capital star, which was exactly 3:00 a.m. at the Gamma military base. A total of 2,326 people took the test in the entire military base. The match that Xing Tian participated in was compared to this one, and it was completely at the level of a child playing at home.

The number of mechas owned by the Golden Crusaders has increased, and the demand for mecha repairers and mecha warriors has increased. External recruitment is not as good as internal training, so the Legion encourages capable young people to take the initiative to take the exam. As long as you have the ability, the school recommendation corps who take the first-level exam can do it. In addition, Auston got the design drawings of the small mecha from Ryan, and also needs a lot of talents to invest in the production of the small mecha.

The latter, is currently carried out in secret.

The exam time is in the early morning. In order to allow everyone to have enough sleep so that they can concentrate during the exam, the logistics department specially set up a warehouse building and installed a lying holographic device in the building, which is open to the public one day in advance. students use. Lane left the dormitory at 9:00 pm on August 11, and walked slowly for an hour to the test site at 10:25. In the distance, he saw Auston holding Daifuku standing at the door of the warehouse building, smiling. with every soldier entering the examination room.

The curvature of the corners of his mouth is just right, the eyebrows are raised, and the smile on his face perfectly shows the kindness, easy-going, and caring emotions, which makes everyone who sees it excited, and a sense of satisfaction that is valued spontaneously arises. .

"General!"

When the soldiers who came alone or in twos and threes saw Auston, they stomped their feet and saluted.

Allston nodded with a smile, "The exam went well."

It was just a simple exhortation, but it inspired the people who heard it, and they were immediately motivated.

"The mecha repairer exam is held every year, and this is the first time the general has paid such attention."

"It is estimated that the policy will be inclined in the future, and it is correct for us to take the test."

"Fortunately, I have obtained the master-level qualification certificate for mechanical repair. I have worked hard for so many years. Let's go and say hello to the general. Excited!"

Some people are excited that their choice is not wrong, and some people pay attention to the little white beast in Auston's arms. In the general's arms, someone looked at it, and it lifted its eyelids and glanced at it, with a very arrogant attitude.

"What is the general holding?"

"I've been with the general for days, like a griffin."

"Isn't a griffin with an eagle's head and talons?"

"It's mutated."

Someone next to Ryan said enviously, "The general throws that little thing away and replaces it with me!"

Ryan: "..."

Had he known Auston was here, he would have come earlier.

The little beast's keen intuition made Dafu look forward, his eyes that were too lazy to open his eyes were tightly closed, and he moved in Auston's arms. Gotta wiggle back and forth, tense up nervously!

Ryan didn't seem very eager, he added a little speed to the previous pace and walked to the door, "General."

The smile floating in the corner of his eyes entered his eyes, and Auston replied with the same content, "The exam went well." However, his tone was obviously much gentler.

Ryan wanted to ask Auston how long he was staying here, and wanted to stand by his side. But the millions of soldiers in the legion have a lot of people, and the environment is not as simple as Xing Tianjian. He can only suppress his inner desire, take a deep look at Auston and enter the warehouse building. He will prove himself with the best results... …If only the mecha repairer qualification certificate could be tested consecutively, he would be able to pass the master level at once!

It's a pity that not everyone has the good luck of Serra to be favored by Master McAar and get the qualification for the exceptional exam.

The arranged test room occupies a total of twelve floors of the warehouse building, with nearly 200 devices placed on each floor. Lane found his own machine according to the information sent to the personal terminal in advance. It is located on the sixth floor. No. 666, six or six Dashun, Ryan, who is of Chinese blood, said he likes this number very much.

All the newly purchased latest models of reclining holographic cabins are fixed on the ground. The white metal surface of these semi-enclosed egg-shaped machines has a velvet texture, and the edge is inlaid with a circle of black diamond-shaped glass. The more conflicting colors and Aesthetically pleasing.

Ryan's eyes moved slightly, guessing that this would replace the old online training room and become a new training center. The consumables for mecha and machinery are precious, and the training stage is generally recommended to be carried out in the Xingwang holographic classroom. If the parts are broken, it will not be distressed. It can reduce the occurrence of waste and reduce expenses, and put the small military expenses on the blade. . Moreover, soldiers can fight against the AI ​​on the star network, and they can participate in the competition on the star network. The various scenes are not restricted by the terrain and location, and there are programs specially developed for the legion.

Ryan lay in the holographic device. The burgundy faux leather pad was quite comfortable, so soft that he felt like he had fallen into his lover's arms, making people groan uncontrollably.

Someone called out next to him, "Damn, it's so comfortable. After returning from the dog day's field training and lying in the holographic equipment, who would think about it, sleep and sleep!"

A voice came from a little further away, jokingly said: "If you don't want to take the exam, don't set a reminder time secretly if you have the ability."

The person who spoke first snorted, "I'll go look at the papers and gain insight."

"Yes, I just went to see the papers, and by the way, I got a qualification certificate and came back."

"The qualification certificate is so difficult to test." The one closest to Ryan shouted, as if to cheer himself up, "The general told me just now that the test went well, and I can definitely pass it!"

"The Golden Crusaders are fearless and must pass!"

"Fearless!"

"Fearless!"

All the soldiers on the left and right shouted. The sonorous and powerful voices boosted morale and inspired people. Those who were nervous and nervous were transformed into the will to fight and charge in the sound of "fearlessness".

Ryan smiled, they were all interesting people, and he shouted, "Fearless!"

I don't know who shouted, "Keep quiet, rest and sleep, don't forget to set a reminder time, the exam is at three in the morning, if you make a low-level mistake, you will be punished for 20 laps on the playground!"

Everyone quieted down and used the personal terminal to dock the holographic device. Ryan lay down and pressed his hand on the touch screen next to his right arm. After a slight buzzing, the glass cover appeared and closed, and the inside became a closed space. A faint warm fragrance appears, with a hypnotic charm.

The synthesized electronic female voice sounded, with a sweet voice, "Relax your body, don't resist. Sir, are you going to sleep, or can you enter the star network?"

"Sleep." Entering the star network can seize the time to review, but miss more sleep loss.

"Okay, sir." The sweet voice asked: "Sir, please confirm the time to enter the star network during sleep. You set it at 2:30 am gamma time on August 12, right?"

"The time is fixed."

"Okay, sir. Xiaobai will wake up at 2:30 a.m. gamma time on August 12th and take you into the star network. I wish you a good dream, sir."

Ryan closed his eyes and placed his hands on his stomach naturally. He had received sleep training and was able to fall into deep sleep in a short period of time. When he smelled the cool mint-like smell, Xiaobai's voice came from his ears, "Sir, it's time, Xiaobai will take you into the star network." Ryan suddenly woke up, he felt his consciousness being dragged, and after a brief dizziness The eyes suddenly brightened, the eyes adapted to the light, and the environment was clearly presented in front of the eyes. It was very wise to locate in advance. As soon as the line went online, it was the square in front of the test center. The hemispherical building upside down on the ground has smooth lines, and the surface is full of honeycomb-like holes. Ryan looked around blankly, and the people around him were all disheveled. No matter how many times he looked at the test center, it was so spicy. Eye.

Including Ryan, everyone is in a hurry, as if looking at the dense holes will suffocate.

The test center is definitely a disaster for intensive phobias. Ordinary people will be horrified after watching it for a long time. Presumably the designer's bad taste has been greatly satisfied.

The Capital Star has not yet arrived at 8:00 in the morning, so I have to wait under the winding corridor of the examination center. It is better to stand in the crowd than to stand in the distance and face one hole after another.

If you have something in your heart, time flies quickly, you don't need to wait for long, when the ding ding bell rings, the door of the test center opens, and you can be assigned to the test center when you step in. Like last time, there will be light after entering. The screen appeared, allowing Ryan to check the information.

"Sure."

After checking the information, Ryan shouted OK.

The voice fell, and a white table and chair appeared in front of him, and there was no accident on the table with pen and paper. Ryan pulled out his chair and sat down, picked up the pen, and without any hesitation began to write on a thick stack of A3 paper. Compared with the first-level exam, the time of the second-level examination has not changed, but the number of questions is larger. On the basis of the 42 sheets of more than 2,300 items in the first-level examination, eight pages and more than 500 examination questions are added. It consists of single-choice, multiple-choice, true/false, short answer, fill-in-the-blank, applied questions, etc. Even in the interstellar era, the form of human questioning is still lackluster.

The correct rate of the theory test is the same as that of the first-level test, and the correct rate must be above 90% to be able to enter the practical test in the afternoon.

Ryan answered the questions attentively, and the unanswered papers became thinner and thinner under his hands. At his own pace, he wrote all the way without stopping. When he put down the pen, it was only five minutes before the end of the exam.

With such a large amount of questions, even Ryan felt relieved after finishing it.

Put down the pen and the grades will come out.

"The overall correct rate is 98.7%, congratulations to the 2000******80456 candidate for obtaining the qualification for the afternoon practical test." The sweet electronic voice sounded, Ryan raised his eyebrows, and the correct rate was similar to the first-level test. He definitely did not I have deliberately calculated, who will show off their skills with the test results?

When he was ejected from the test center, Ryan became obedient and looked down at the ground instead of facing the dense pattern. He raised his arm and pressed it on the personal terminal. He exited the star network and opened his eyes just to see someone shaking his head and walking in front of the holographic cabin. Those who failed the test left the test room sadly, wondering if they would persist. Come down and show up in the exam room a few years later.

I didn't bother to see how many people left on the sixth floor. After coming out of the holographic cabin, Ryan simply did some stretching exercises. After walking around for a while, he enjoyed the nutritional supplements and compressed biscuits that were piled up at the door. The high-calorie savory biscuits with the taste of pure fruit and chives. Compared with the ship, these nutrients and compressed dry food with normal taste can definitely be described as delicious food.

The noon break is not long. It seems that I have come out to stretch my body and fill my stomach. One and a half hours have passed, followed by the practical exam in the afternoon. The brain seems to have to face it before it has recovered from the sea of ​​questions in the morning. A double test of body and spirit once again.

Ryan has done a lot of preparation, and the exam is a means for him to obtain a qualification certificate and prove himself. The practical test is similar to the first-level mode. Assembling parts, repairing mecha, and using the parts assembled in question 1 into question 3, after all three are completed, it is the drawing design, simply draw a few strokes and write some of your own. Just imagine.

Ryan looked at the idea in his pen, smiled, and clicked submit.

Submitted, the paper disappeared, and a light screen appeared out of thin air, showing Ryan's practical score - 97.9 points.

The best score for the second-level test practical operation was born, and the previous record holder was Sierra Bromfield with a score of 95.4. Ryan bent his mouth when he saw his grades, and liked the feeling of stepping on people's feet. I wonder how Serra felt when she saw that the grades she had maintained for decades were broken by others? The face must be very wonderful.

Ryan: "..."

He was stunned to find that he still had this little enemy in his heart, and he didn't need to care about it at all... Still a little concerned, he actually had a bad idea of ​​Auston and confessed before he appeared. After so many times, he also said that he is the best person... Fortunately, Auston ignored him!

"Congratulations to the 2000******80456 candidate who successfully passed the mecha repairer qualification certificate exam and obtained the second-level repair qualification certificate."

Ryan waited, but never waited to ask him if he would take the Level 3 Mecha Repair Qualification Exam three years later. Without this procedure, he couldn't leave the exam room.

Exam system malfunctioning?

Obviously not, the fault tolerance rate of StarNet's main brain is almost zero.

The answer to his stay here soon appeared. In the matte white space, a vague figure appeared three meters away in front of him, vaguely recognizable as an old man.

"Young man, you always leave room for the design of the drawing." The old man's voice was kind and gentle, and it should be for people who are elegant, wise, and humble.

Ryan wasn't surprised to see someone show up, saying, "Don't everyone do that."

The figure shook his head slightly and sighed, "People's hearts are not ancient, and sharing is no longer a virtue now."

"Elder, you should understand the reason for this phenomenon." Patent protection has existed since the ancient earth, which is not surprising, but now even tiny ideas and flashes of inspiration are hidden, all of which are because of the social environment. The upper level monopolizes the design of drawings, and the lower level, in order to promote, does not trust friends, guards against colleagues, steals other people's inspiration, etc. has become the mainstream.

The elder was silent, he looked at the confident young man in front of him, a smile of anticipation appeared on his face hidden in the blur, and he said persuadingly, "Young man, do you want to break this phenomenon?"

"I don't want to." Ryan refused. Grandpa Tianzhu said that he would add cheats to himself, and let himself play a big game in the existing game. Thinking about it is unreliable. He has long passed the age of fantasy. , Cousin Connor's novels do not directly let the protagonist get the grandpa.

Senior citizens:"……"

The old man was almost choked, and the qi-raising kung fu that he had lived for such a long time almost broke. The first time he took the initiative to invite him, he was rejected!

"You left a few scratchy words on the blueprint design of the last level, not just to lure me out."

"I only did this after reading the online guide. The guide said that there might be manual scoring. If you do it well, you can attract the favor of masters. If you accept it as a disciple, you will be able to reach the peak of life." Ryan remembered the last time. The warm reminder left to him during the exam - imagine that after passing it, he will know that what the strategy says is true.

The old man laughed, "It seems that I can't hold my breath anymore. Young man, you have a lot of ideas. The few simple points you put forward are to the point. It's hard to bear, and I really want to know the specific content." He will pay attention to qualifications in recent years. Taking the certificate exam, let's see what whimsical ideas today's young people have. Unfortunately, there are few outstanding ones and many mediocre ones. When he saw the idea proposed by Ryan, his eyes lit up, and there was a sense of pleasure that the fog in front of his eyes had been blown a little thin. , I was disappointed after the fun, because Ryan only left a few words, and the ambiguous content was really not enjoyable.

After waiting for a year, and finally waiting for the second-level exam, the elder deliberately observed behind the system and found that Ryan was a valuable talent.

Hearing Lane's words, the elder laughed and said, "I can accept you as a disciple."

Ryan refused again, "Thank you, no need." As I said before, he was past the age of fantasy and didn't need an old grandpa to give him advice.

The elder's calm attitude was almost unbearable, and he said, "Do you know what you have missed?" ? Remove the blur effect to not scare him to death.

If you take back the apprentice, let Ryan know that he will regret it later. After making up his mind, the elder asked lightly, "Tell me what you think, and I can satisfy one condition for you!"

When he waited for the moment he was looking forward to, Ryan said, "How about an exceptional exam? I want to take the Level 3 qualification exam next year."

The blurred old man opened his eyes wide, "Are you sure? The reason why it takes three years of work experience to be able to take the Level 3 exam is because the problems encountered in practice are more important than those in the review materials. Young people, don't It's too ambitious, your ideas are good, but you're too inexperienced for your age."

"I insist." Ryan didn't want to spend three or six years of work waiting for the arrival of the qualification certificate exam. It is best to prove that his certificate is best displayed in the window at home as soon as possible!

The elder said helplessly: "Okay." He is a pure person, dedicated to the research of mecha, and the wonderful idea is the most delicious bait for him, and he is willing to obey even knowing that there is something tricky in it.

Hearing the word "good", Ryan's calm face showed excitement and joy in line with his age, and said happily: "Thank you. Can you show paper and pen, I can write my thoughts out, I can't stay here. As long as it takes, it will cause trouble." He was afraid that the abnormality would be reported to Auston level by level, and it would be bad for Auston to worry.

The elder was silent. It was the first time he saw such an anxious young man. He didn't see his excitement and excitement at all. He raised his palm lightly, and a pen and paper appeared in front of Lane. Lane picked up the pen and wrote quickly. Then, he expanded the ideas mentioned in the exam, and pushed them to the elder when they were finished, "They are all immature ideas, Master, take a look."

The elder took it carelessly, but his eyes couldn't wait to look up. He nodded while watching, but in the end he couldn't hold on to the demeanor of the master, "Okay, okay, this idea is great, why didn't I think of solving the problem in this way. The problem of the armor's battery life! Young man, your idea will bring revolutionary changes to the mecha, no, no, no time, I'm going to test the feasibility now."

"Cough," Ryan reminded, "Master, don't forget my exam."

"Young man, don't you wonder who I am?"

"There aren't many people who have the ability to make a test breaker," Lane said.

Master Macya smiled, "Young man, you have a bright mind, keen observation ability and fearless courage. You are welcome to come to the Capital Star to find me, and I am willing to have afternoon tea with you."

"If there is a chance to come to Capital Star, I will definitely find you." Ryan said half-jokingly: "When the time comes, don't shut me out."

"I'd love to meet you, such an outstanding young man." Master McAryan said before disappearing: "Ryan, Capital Star welcomes you."

After the blurred figure disappeared, the long-lost system prompt sounded, "Do you want to sign up for next year's third-level restorer qualification exam?"

Lane: "Yes."

System: "Already registered."

Ryan quit the Star Network and saw Auston the moment he opened his eyes. He was delayed in the Star Network for too long, which really worried Auston. Everyone else in the exam room had already left. The glass cover of the holographic equipment was opened, and only No. 666 was tightly closed. Auston stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the personal terminal from time to time, not to miss the change of time. Ten minutes passed, and a quarter of an hour passed. Twenty minutes have passed since the end of the exam. If Ryan still does not come out, he will activate the forced logout mode on the holographic capsule.

With a slight air vibration, the glass cover opened, and Ryan jumped out of the holographic capsule and hugged Auston, "I passed the exam."

Auston's tense body relaxed, then smiled and said, "Congratulations."

"I also signed up for next year's Level 3 qualification exam."

"Next year?" As far as he knows, the third-level restorer exam requires three years of work experience.

Ryan said shyly: "It took some small tricks to get the qualifications for the exam." He threw some bait during the first-level exam, he just wanted to try, and in the second-level exam, it was completely intentional, deliberately testing the back of the assessment paper. Is there anyone? The result was 10,000 times better than he thought. Master McAar appeared in person and invited him to drink tea. This is definitely the best thing besides the holidays.

Auston grabbed Ryan's shoulders and said incoherently, "Let's go to the Capital Star to see Master McAye, he can make you..."

"Auston, Auston..." Ryan shouted a few times, "Don't get excited, it's important to see Master McAye, and it's equally important to enjoy our vacation."

"This is Master McAye, not everyone can see it, he can take you to a higher level."

Ryan said: "But I just want to get certified and get the title of master, and let everyone know that Auston's partner is very strong. In a higher field, with my current qualifications, Master McArena will not bring it with me. I'll see." He wanted to study biological mecha, but how could that kind of core scientific research field be given to a young man, he had to come up with more chips in exchange for Master McAye. Now is not the time, life is still long, so don't rush to study. "You shouldn't think that I'm short-sighted and not aggressive."

"No, no." Auston lowered his head, and Qing Jun's face appeared embarrassed at some point. He never imagined that Ryan cared so much about the title of master, "I don't care about the title of master, you don't need it. So hard."

Ryan said persistently, "But I want to be your exclusive restorer!"

He has the ability to stand by Auston's side, so why not shorten the time and make the results appear earlier.

At the end of the cruise mission, all the soldiers on Xingtian Ship had a vacation of up to half a year. They could make good use of this vacation to accompany their families and pursue the boys and girls they liked. In the port of the Gamma military base, a small private starship docked inconspicuously. Ryan stood in front of the starship and said goodbye to the three new roommates. The three insisted and were sent all the way to the side of the star ship.

"Big brother, it's a good journey, and you must have a good discussion with us when you come back." Jorriver actively waved his arms that are more than 90 centimeters around his arms, and spent a few days with Ryan and learned a few days, and benefited a lot.

"Okay, see you in half a year." Ryan nodded, saying goodbye to everyone and stepping on the starship.

The starship left the port smoothly, the speed increased, and disappeared in front of everyone in an instant.

The few people who stayed in the port were silent for a while, and Ryan's upper bunk broke the calm, "Well, did you see the fleeting figure in the starship just now?"

"Impossible, how could it be a general!"

"But the general has a little white beast with him recently, it seems to be a big blessing."

Three roommates: "..."

"Hehe, I've been thinking too much. Those guys in the Xingtian Ship said that the general was married, so how could they be with Ryan..." Jorifer swallowed, how could it not be Ryan.

The three looked at each other, their new roommates wouldn't be so magical, would they?
