Chapter 454: Instant Victory, Believe It or Not
He Yidu and Qin Fang were in the medical room. Digital equipment and computers had been moved into it. They had a live feed of the surveillance room on screen.
At 6am, the sky had just started to brighten. The a.s.sessment was about to begin. The surveillance room was already connected to provide live footage of Gu Mang and the seven students, including Gu Si. Silence’s ident.i.ty was already known by the entire surveillance team. Word had traveled fast.
At the moment, all eyes were on her. She had a rather slim figure. She wore a mask and a hat so her face could not be seen.
Before the official a.s.sessment, they would announce the various segments of the oncoming a.s.sessment. They waited for a whole two minutes but she did not move.
Slowly, their attention began to move away from Gu Mang.
Someone asked, “Why isn’t Silence announcing the a.s.sessment segments and criteria yet?”
The people beside him shook his head. The expression in his eyes stiffened a little.
“The a.s.sessment is way more psychotic than the training. I wonder what kind of challenge Silence will set up for them this time.” She did not get the nickname of “the Devil Instructor” for no reason.
The twenty four day training session at Red Flame was just a small segment for the students in Red Flame. Ever since Silence started running the training, this segment had become the Death Segment. Its difficulty level was so high that the students would never forget about it.
While everyone was having a heated discussion, a sound was heard in the surveillance room.
“Without sleeping for seventy-two hours, you have to stay awake and still remain rational after the intensive a.s.sessment. Beat five opponents and you will pa.s.s the a.s.sessment.”
It was a low and cold voice with no warmth at all.
The entire surveillance room fell into an inexplicable silence. Everyone frowned and they talked about how difficult the requirement was.
Missing Gateway cleared his throat. “Isn’t the a.s.sessment 48 hours long? Why is it suddenly 72 hours now?”
The leader of the Special Agents Team did not speak. He just stared straight at the footage from the surveillance cameras.
The atmosphere was tense. No one expected the a.s.sessment segment to turn out like this. Even the time had been lengthened. In the surveillance camera footage, the seven students, excluding Gu Si, glared at Gu Mang.
No matter how diligent anyone was, there was no way that they could stay wide awake for 72 hours!
Not sleeping for more than 40 hours was enough to cause mild hallucinations and signs of mental distress.
72 hours. She was simply trying to kill them!
“Instructor…”
Number One spoke up and Gu Mang looked at him. All of his words sounded as if they were being pushed down his throat.
Gu Mang quickly retorted, “The eight year didn’t even make a sound. You sure have a lot to say.”
Gu Si suddenly tensed up, straightened his back, and said very powerfully, “I will do as the instructor says and obey the organization’s arrangements!”
Everyone was silent.
At the medical room.
He Yidu and Qin Fang sat on the sofa and watched the surveillance footage on the wide display screen.
“d.a.m.n! 72 hours!” If Qin Fang hadn’t been laughing, they would have thought that he pitied the students.
He Yidu laughed. “Is she giving us an extra day of training this year?”
The a.s.sessment was 72 hours. This time, the training was 25 days instead of 24.
Qin Fang poured himself a cup of tea, leaned back with it in hand, and slowly said, “I think it is because of Gu Si. Splurging on this was still rather efficient. With the skills the current batch has, they are going to instantly win when they join the Special Agents Team.”
Those who survived the training would be masters in a wide range of fields. In the era of cyber warfare, IT skills were a must, which is why the people sent by Red Scorpion were all computer experts.
After Gu Mang’s special training was over and the survivors joined the Special Agents Team, all the top rankers on the current leaderboards would probably be dethroned. The technical team would have to then train those losers using the new curriculum.
