Although Xu Dongyou didn't mind people knowing his real name, as he said before, it was always right to be cautious when facing such a new and unknown world.
Xu Dongyou thought for a moment and filled in a pseudonym in the name column, calling himself [Lidong].
Then he briefly described his gender and his abilities, omitting his ability to detect danger.
After filling out the form, Tian Ze hurriedly took it, glanced at the name on the form, and said, "Lidong, I'll go hand in the form, and we can go do the test."
"Is this test difficult?" Xu Dongyou was a little worried: "I have a cold and a cough now, I don't know if it will affect the test results."
Tian Ze said: "It doesn't have much impact, just put your hand on it and it will directly measure your inspiration level."
Ten minutes later.
Xu Dongyou, Tian Ze and the other two went to the second floor. When they reached the end of the corridor, they saw an old man drinking tea in the next room. He came out after hearing the noise and looked at Xu Dongyou. He then said to Tian Ze, "Is there a new member of your team?"
Tian Ze nodded and said to the old man, "Open the door, we need to test psychic power."
The old man named Uncle Li pushed his reading glasses, turned around and clicked the fingerprint combination lock on the wall, and the door at the end opened quickly.
Uncle Li walked in, and the others followed closely behind.
This is a pure white room with only a simple armchair. On both sides of the chair handles there are things like crystal balls, emitting a faint white light.
To be precise, this thing is called a psychic energy storage ball.
It is said to be made of unknown materials, and is specially supplied to the branch to use the psychic energy storage ball to activate the last protective formation in an emergency.
Normally, some people who have sufficient spiritual energy or who want to train and improve their spiritual energy level will come here to train and exchange some points.
I don't know who came up with the idea, saying why not allow newcomers to come here to test their psychic powers. What's more, there is no way to measure the psychic power level more accurately than this psychic power storage ball.
The proposal was soon passed and other branches also adopted this approach.
Uncle Li asked Xu Dong to swim in. "Just put your hands on the glass ball. Relax and don't be nervous. You will see yourself moving forward. Remember to go as far as you can."
The others did not go in, but stood there looking at the test room through the mirror.
Xu Dongyou sat down with a nervous mood, calming his breathing, and only put his hands on it when he felt it was almost right.
A dazzling blue light flickered inside the crystal ball, quickly enveloping Xu Dongyou's hands.
Xu Dongyou felt as if half of his consciousness had entered a blue space, with a cloud-paved road under his feet that seemed to have no end.
It makes a crunching sound when you step on it, and it feels soft.
But with his eyes closed, the other half of his consciousness could clearly see Tian Ze and others outside the glass opposite from a fixed angle. They were all staring at him without blinking, with nervous looks on their faces.
Xu Dongyou could even hear the deliberately suppressed voices over there.
It’s like a person is divided into two halves, but neither of them affects the other. It feels very strange.
"Captain, what level do you think his psychic power is?" Zhang Wu almost pressed his face against the glass. "Will it be level one or level two? I remember that the highest psychic power of new recruits in other branches is level two. What level is it exactly?"
Tian Ze said without thinking: "It doesn't matter if he is level 2 or something. The higher the better. Don't forget that he has more special abilities. I have just reported this to the captains of the four teams."
Zhao Liu turned around and asked Tian Ze: "What did the captain say?"
Tian Ze said: "This is the first time our bureau has encountered someone with this ability. In addition, this matter is still uncertain, so I asked the chief to keep it secret for now. After Li Dong passes and enters the bureau, we can take him to take on a mission to confirm it. The captain is a little skeptical and is trying to research a tester that can test this ability."
Finally, he warned, "Remember not to spread the news to others, especially you, Zhang Wu. If the first squad finds out, they will definitely snatch us away again."
Tian Ze became furious when he thought about this.
Zhang Wu was not as playful as usual at this time. Instead, he said very seriously: "Captain, don't worry, I will definitely not tell anyone and will definitely not let the small team intercept again."
Half of Xu Dongyou's consciousness was still moving forward, and the further he went, the more he could feel that the clouds under his feet seemed to carry some kind of heavy force, so his speed was forced to slow down a lot.
But he still gritted his teeth and kept moving forward.
As for the other half of his consciousness, he noticed that Tian Ze and the others seemed to have surprised expressions.
What happened
Xu Dongyou stood there hesitantly and confused.
"Why isn't your spiritual energy increasing?" Zhang Wu leaned against the glass tightly, his heart beating out of his chest. He whispered, "Hold on a little longer. If you work hard for another ten seconds, you can reach level two spiritual energy."
Xu Dongyou seemed to understand a little bit and took a few tentative steps forward.
"Captain, look! It's rising again!" Zhang Wu was so excited that he seemed to be testing himself. "It's almost reaching level 2."
Tian Ze was also very excited. He unconsciously held his breath and clenched his fists.
It was not until more than ten seconds later that Xu Dongyou heard them say that their psychic power had reached level two. He took a few steps forward and decided not to move forward anymore.
He could feel that he could probably hold on for another half a minute, but he didn't want to stand out and draw attention, even during the next test.
As if sensing that Xu Dongyou was not going to go on, the road under his feet instantly disappeared, his consciousness returned, and he slowly opened his eyes.
A female mechanical voice came from inside the house: “Test completed, your psychic level is level 2.5.
Outside the glass window, Uncle Li also had a smile on his face. It was a good thing for the bureau that a young man with such high psychic power had arrived.
Zhao Wu jumped up in excitement, looking at the psychic level displayed on the screen, "Captain, it's level 2.5, the best newcomer in our branch. Let's see if Feng Chen dares to brag about being the most promising newcomer in the branch in the future."
"We really found a good seedling!" Tian Ze subconsciously wanted to smoke to ease his inner excitement, but then he remembered that smoking was prohibited here. He could only rub his fingertips and said "OK" three times.
After Xu Dongyou came out, he was treated warmly by Zhang Wu and Tian Ze.
Zhao Liu was as calm as ever. He just stood there, smiling and nodded to Xu Dongyou.
After coming out of the testing room, Tian Ze hurried away with the form in his hand. Before leaving, he said to Xu Dongyou, "I'll go register your information in the database."
Xu Dongyou nodded, his face slightly red due to the cold, and he seemed a little shy and well-behaved.
Zhao Liu looked at Xu Dongyou and said, "Wait a little longer. The captain will bring your smart watch over soon. Then you can take a taxi home and rest."
Xu Dongyou felt that Zhao Liu was a very considerate person. He did not feel overly enthusiastic or cold when they were getting along. Instead, he felt extremely comfortable.
Zhang Wu added enthusiastically, "It's so troublesome to take a taxi. I can drive you back."
Before Xu Dongyou could say no, Zhao Liu spoke first, "Don't forget that we haven't handed in our mission yet, and we haven't finished the report yet."
Zhang Wu wailed and felt like there was no hope for life.
Although Xu Dongyou had many questions in his mind, his head seemed to be starting to ache because his cold was too severe.
Fortunately, Tian Ze came back soon, holding a small black box in his hand, and handed it to Xu Dongyou, "It contains the psychic watch that everyone in our bureau must have. It has your own serial number on it, and our serial numbers are all in it."
Then he added: "You can fill in your real personal information directly through this watch. The information is first-class confidentiality."
"From now on, you will be a member of our Level 4 Team 8. There are two other people in our team, but they didn't come to handle the bureau today. I'll ask them to come tomorrow so you can meet them."
Xu Dongyou took the box and remembered that his cold symptoms would probably worsen to a high fever tomorrow, and he might not be able to get up, so he asked Tian Ze: "Captain, my fever and cold symptoms will become more serious tomorrow. Can I take a few days off and come to the bureau again?"
"Fever and cold?" Tian Ze asked, "Is it related to your overuse of abilities?"
Xu Dongyou was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized, "Are all the people in the bureau like this?"
"Not all of them. Some people who overuse their spiritual energy will become exhausted and need to rest for half a month. Only those with special abilities will have sequelae like you, such as headaches and discomfort."
Xu Dongyou nodded.
Zhao Liu said: "Thanks to your help in this mission, otherwise Zhang Wu and I would have to pay a higher price to complete the mission. After we submit the mission, we will share some of the points with you."
This was something he and Zhang Wu had discussed before.
Xu Dongyou shook his head quickly. "I hadn't joined the processing bureau at that time, so how could I ask for points? Besides, you guys also helped my friend, and he never knew how to thank you."
"Dealing with evil spirits is what every member of the Bureau should do. Besides, it's not for nothing." Zhao Wu showed his expression again, as if he didn't know the Bureau well enough, and said mysteriously, "The country is behind our Bureau, you know."
Xu Dongyou still felt a little embarrassed, Tian Ze waved his hand and said, "We are all on the same team in the future, why are you being so polite? Besides, you really need these points now. You can use them to exchange for something from the psychic energy table that can alleviate your sequelae."
Xu Dongyou didn't expect that the Processing Bureau had such a good thing. He instantly became more interested in the psychic watch and simply agreed without any hesitation. "Thank you very much. I'll treat you to dinner next time."
Tian Ze and the other two sent Xu Dongyou to the street, and then watched Xu Dongyou get into a taxi and leave.
Tian Ze waved his hand and said, "Let's go back to the office and write a good report. Try to piss off the first team."
Zhang Wu immediately saluted and said in a loud voice: "Yes! Captain!"
