196 Free Mecha (Part 1)

Nico also noticed Ning Shi. He was a little surprised.

Since the first day they met, Ning Shi vowed to be his friend. Three days later, this person completely disappeared.

Out of curiosity, Nico had even visited Ning Shi’s dormitory, but he had not seen him.

Nico’s only friend, Wang Fu, had always said that Ning Shi was the same as the others. He was afraid of Nico’s identity and bad luck and took the initiative to stay away.

However, Nico had a unique talent for perception. He believed in his own perception and intuition.

Ning Shi was different from those who took the initiative to stay away from him and gave up halfway. He had no discrimination or fear of himself.

He didn’t expect that the two of them would have the same birthday and would be undergoing the qualification test today.

Nico greeted him, “Ning Shi, are you also here to take the test? I haven’t seen you these past few days.”

Ning Shi stopped about one meter away from Nico. Today’s qualification test was very important. He had to be careful not to be contaminated by bad luck.

Ning Shi smiled and said, “Hello, Nico. I didn’t expect that we would have the same birthday. It seems that we are indeed fated. I have been working in the breeding farm these days and have moved out of my original residence.”

Facing Nico, Ning Shi had already calmed down and treated him with the attitude of an ordinary friend.

The Titanium Pole World was different from the World of Moen. The children of destiny of this world were taken care of by a stronger world will. With stronger destiny, there were more dangers.

It was not easy to borrow power from the son of destiny.

“No wonder I couldn’t find you when I went to the dormitory to find you.”

Ning Shi’s attitude made Nico feel more comfortable and they began to chat.

More and more people came into the hall. At nine o’clock sharp, there were more than 400 young people who came to be tested.

Fortunately, this hall was dedicated to testing qualifications, so it was large enough.

Even with more than 400 people standing there, it was still not crowded.

A serious-looking middle-aged man stood in front of the crowd. He had a headset on his ear to ensure that everyone could hear him.

“Time’s up! Close the door!”

With the middle-aged man’s order, the rolling curtain door of the hall slowly closed.

A few people who were late were just one step away from entering the hall, and they were shouting mournfully outside.

However, it was useless. Being late was equivalent to giving up the opportunity for the qualification test. The government agencies would not be soft-hearted.

A person who was late for such an important thing as the qualification test, even if he had an excellent aptitude, would not be able to achieve anything in the end.

Perhaps some people were late because they were unlucky and encountered an accident. That was the same because it was difficult for people with bad luck to succeed.

Soon, the late people outside the door were driven away by the guards, and the hall suddenly became quiet.

“I’m Zhao Wang, the Section Chief of the Human Resources Department of the Civil Affairs Division No. 3 in the Outer Sword Shield City. You can call me Chief Zhao or Old Zhao.

“Today is your 18th birthday, which means that you’re all adults. You’ll have to take on the responsibility of protecting the city. The first step of this responsibility is to test your qualifications.”

Zhao Wang’s voice was connected to the sound amplification system in the hall through the headset, and it was clearly transmitted to everyone’s ears.

He had to say these words every day, but even so, he still earnestly exhorted everyone present. After saying a few more words from the bottom of his heart, he began to introduce the people and the process.

“Beside me are the recruitment teachers of the Norse Republic’s major academies. Everyone, look up at the big screen. There’s information on it. It’s very clear what qualifications you have to enter which academies.”

On the innermost wall of the hall, there was a projection screen.

A table was displayed on the screen.

S-level aptitude – guaranteed entry to the Mecha Division of the Norse Republic Academy.

A-level aptitude – 3 rounds of selection before entry to the Mecha Division of the Norse Republic Academy. Guaranteed entry to any other academy’s Mecha Division.

B-level aptitude – Southern Academy, Blackbox Academy…

C-level aptitude – Sword Shield City Academy, Long Arm City Academy…

D-level and below – elimination.

Seeing this form, there was a commotion in the crowd. Everyone couldn’t help but start whispering and discussing.

“I hope I can have C-level aptitude. I want to enter the Sword Shield City Academy.”

“Good luck. It’s said that although aptitude is related to talent, the nutrition you take in daily is also very important. Our outer city is too poor, and we can’t even afford to eat meat, so where is the nutrition?”

It’s been 10 years since an A-level talent has appeared in the outer city.”

Hearing the crowd’s discussion, a chubby man showed off.

“I can definitely do it. My father went on an adventure in the suburbs last month and hunted a Tier 2 radioactive beast. Not only did he get a lot of jelly meat, but he also got a considerable bonus.

“Not only did I eat jelly meat this month, but I also took the beginner biopharmaceutical produced by Blackbox Biotechnology Company.”

As soon as the chubby man finished speaking, everyone looked at him enviously. In the outer city, it was either an orphan like Ning Shi or a commoner living in poverty.

Most of these children had to work to support their families before they were ten years old. They had no spare time to exercise, let alone eat nutrition to develop their Spiritual Power.

The poor studied and the rich studied.

The qualification test seemed fair, but in fact, everyone was not on the same starting line from the beginning.

Every year, there were very few poor children in the outer city who had good qualification test results.

The probability of a C-level aptitude appearing was less than 3%, and the probability of a B-level aptitude appearing was less than one in a thousand.
