Master of the Stars

Chapter 30: Withdrawal period (Part 1)

Views:

The "Pingjiang District" where Zhixing College is located belongs to the suburbs of the core urban area of Xiacheng. In addition to colleges, there are many middle schools, universities, and research institutes, which together form an educational functional area of nearly 100 square kilometers. It is one of the areas with the best humanities and natural environment in Xiacheng.

After Zhang Yingying sent Luo Nan to school, she turned around and arrived at a research institute just a few kilometers away from Zhixing College. This research institute, under the name of the International Association for Scientific Exploration, is actually a liaison gathering place set up by the "Awakened Ones".

Due to the small number of "awakened ones" in Xia City, this place has been idle for many years, and sometimes there is no one around for several months in a row. However, when Zhang Yingying came in, she rarely saw Aunt Susan on duty.

"Hi Susan, congratulations on gaining another ten pounds."

Aunt Susan is half white. It is said that she was a very beautiful mixed race when she was young, but now she is a lazy and rude middle-aged woman weighing 120 kilograms. Her biggest hobby is staying at home and playing games. Because of this, she and Zhang Yingying are kindred spirits and usually have a good relationship.

"I'm going to die if I work overtime every day!"

Susan shook her thick chin and complained loudly: "What about the principle of 'saying no to the reformers' that the association agreed on? It's been less than 5 years since they said, 'Burners do not belong to the reformers'. Ha, what was targeted at the beginning?" It was just a reformation of the prototype format, but now everyone has changed their words, and they are just a bunch of weaklings telling lies!"

Zhang Yingying said "Wow": "Are we going to recruit Burners into the membership? But the first batch of Burners have not yet served their term of service, right? I remember the agreement is twenty years..."

"But there are a group of people who retired early due to injuries. There are about 200 people. Haha, our place will soon become a veterans association."

"Two hundred people!" Zhang Yingying opened her eyes wide, "How many Burners are there in the whole world?"

"Seventeen thousand six hundred and twenty-six people, this is the latest data."

Susan may look rude, but she is actually very sensitive to numbers, which makes her the secretary who controls the association's statistics and has great authority.

"We don't have to wait for the large-scale retirement wave in twenty years. In another ten years, the right to speak in the association will be taken away by the government and the military..."

"I'm not that pessimistic."

Zhang Yingying was not prepared to discuss this topic in depth. She moved closer to Susan and looked at the various data in the giant projection area in front of her. Susan happened to zoom in on someone's information, which surprised Zhang Yingying:

"He Wei, leader of the seventh team of the Lanshan Ship Special Forces Team, I just came out of there... 20 years old? When did she undergo transformation?"

"The first batch, it is said, was in a car accident when she was 15 years old. Her life was in danger. She used the Burner transformation to extend her life. Then she developed in the military. She had outstanding military exploits and an extraordinary background. She just retired today. But soon, she He’s going to be our vice president.”

Susan's words were full of cynicism, but she still gave this person a "C+" without hesitation when it came to rating, which was already the highest level in terms of membership assessment.

In fact, the two people present now only received a "C" rating.

Zhang Yingying clicked her tongue twice. Seeing that Susan wanted to continue, she quickly pressed her hand: "Susan, dear, let me jump in!"

Susan glared over with swollen pig eyes: "Fuck you, do you know how busy I am now? The data rating and data entry of more than 200 people have to be completed within five days. Damn it, this can't be done by just typing on the keyboard. Let’s solve the problem!”

"Of course, of course, I know it's hard for you, but think about our friendship. Last week, I played 'Falling War' with you. It lasted three days and three nights. I want you to play a few games of 'Wildness' with me later. ', but you ran away!"

Susan felt a little guilty: "I came back to work overtime."

"The grievances over overtime work will be settled during overtime work!"

Zhang Yingying picked up her soft screen and patted it on the console in front of Susan: "It's just such a person. I need him to enter the database today and apply for rating measurement, that's all."

Susan muttered, but finally paused the work at hand and activated Zhang Yingying's soft screen.

"Oh my god, it's ten days in the wilderness again, aren't you tired of it yet?"

Susan quickly found the relevant module and connected it to the large projector in front. Zhang Yingying did a good job in the preparatory work and saved Susan a lot of effort.

"Replay."

In the projection area, the scene of the game battle between Ronan and Zhang Yingying on the Lanshan ship began to be played back. Including records of his gestures for controlling game characters, as well as game character movements, tactical changes, etc.

Zhang Yingying did not slack off because she was a witness. She still observed carefully, even more focused than Susan.

Judging from the control techniques, Ronan is indeed a novice. There are a lot of redundant actions, and mistakes often occur, resulting in delayed weapon switching, failure of multi-weapon coordination, etc.

However, to Zhang Yingying, these are meaningless. She is not testing Ronan's e-sports level. But something deeper.

For example, when choosing the trajectory for "Black Fang", the lines drawn by Ronan's fingers were as precise as tracing with a ruler; another example is, facing the erratic displacement of "Fenghuang", after suffering two losses , the accuracy of the prediction also made Zhang Yingying secretly grit her teeth.

These can show some of Ronan's qualities, but they are still not the core.

At this time, Susan did the operation and pressed her right hand on the center of the sensing area. Immediately, there was a brilliant white light, cutting the projection area in half.

The game screen and Ronan's control replay are on one side; the real-time corresponding data chart is on the other side.

As the playback progressed, numbers began to jump in multiple areas on the chart, and multiple undulating trend curves emerged.

More than half of them are hovering at low levels and relatively unchanged. But there are three more that vary greatly in magnitude.

Zhang Yingying showed even more concentration: "The control delay ranges from 0.12 to 0.09, and the stabilization time is more than four hours. Wow, with such concentration, I don't even like playing games!"

“The increase in lethality is between 0.1% and 0.8%, which is a bit low, but it’s no problem if it can be improved.

"Character activation, anthropomorphism from 52% to 72%... 20 points, no problem passing!"

Zhang Yingying sighed, not to mention her ability, her basic qualities were not without merit, which made people worry a lot.

"Another non-combatant. There is no one left in your office. It's not easy to make money with this kind of goal, right?"

Susan curled her lips and gave the preliminary evaluation results through the software:

Name: Ronan

Age: sixteen years old (development period)

Ability direction: Mental strengthening (precision direction)

Level judgment: not awakened (no score)

Potential Standard: E+

Suggested directions: precision control, maintenance and production.

Susan skillfully imported the data into the association's exclusive database, pressed a button, and the system automatically sent out contact information to connect with a chick several kilometers away.
