Chapter 455 Unlucky Betty

After talking about the 'truth' of the world, Betty began to introduce the place they were in.

The training ground numbered 1001 is specially used for the assessment of the Imperial Military Academy. It is aimed at the disciplines of the command department, driving department, and combat department. Betty is a student of the driving department.

"Students will be sent to the central area of ​​the training ground. After leaving the basic equipment, the students need to leave the training ground within a certain period of time. As long as they can reach the 'finish' smoothly, they will be considered qualified. time to count."

Ethan nodded, this didn't make him feel difficult to understand, and he also knew why there was an obvious 'level division' in this world.

The environment of the calm sea at the beginning was relatively peaceful, and the students could adapt in this place, and then set sail to attack the next sea area, which is the area Ethan is currently in.

Here they can accumulate some strength (mainly for ship upgrades), and then enter the route after the equipment meets certain requirements, pass through the second stormy sea area, and reach the outermost sea of ​​miracles.

The more and more complicated sea conditions along the way, in addition to testing the driving and commanding abilities of the students, also have corresponding requirements for combat capabilities.

"Are you all a few students forming a team to participate in the assessment?"

Betty didn't expect Ethan to notice this, but there was nothing to hide, and he nodded directly: "This is also a reference standard for calculating the final grade. Before the assessment starts, it will be determined whether the students will conduct it in a team or individually. "

Individuals will get a higher comprehensive evaluation than teams. Basically, students who get high scores complete the test individually, because it means that this student has no obvious shortcomings in driving and combat.

However, if a student of the command department wants to get a high score, he must choose to form a team, otherwise he can only get a passing grade no matter how well he completes it alone, because a reference standard for testing the command ability of the command department students, It is the speed at which the team completes the assessment and the status of the team members.

If team members are killed or injured, the grades will not be very good; if the team dies and the commander is left alone, not only will he not be able to get a passing grade, but he will even be held accountable, ranging from dropping out of school to going to a court-martial .

Ethan only heard the general idea of ​​these things, he was not very interested in these details, he cared about another thing.

"Is there an energy field on the outermost edge of this training ground?"

"certainly."

Outside the training ground is a layer of energy field, which acts as a part of the atmosphere. Besides, it has many other functions, such as making the sky look more like a real sky; it can also ensure that the people inside will not randomly Leave this place to ensure that outsiders cannot enter here casually.

"The energy field can also create corresponding weather conditions."

This is why the sky cover is almost at the same level as the clouds, because various weather effects are created by these energy fields.

Ethan thought for a while, and asked a more important question.

"What about the export?"

Since it is a training ground, it will not be a completely enclosed facility, at least there must be an entrance and exit passage.

Betty, who heard this question, looked at Ethan in surprise. She didn't seem to expect that Ethan would miss the exit. The thought in her head now was, "Does this person want to escape from this place?" Does he really understand what the universe means? '

It's no wonder Betty has such thoughts. In her impression, the aborigines of this world are controlled at a rather backward level of civilization. With the level of civilization mastered by the aborigines, they can't even conquer a planet, even if this planet It doesn't work without any higher-level civilization on the planet.

Is this the kind of person who actually tried to leave this training ground in vain? Betty felt that Ethan was thinking a little too much.

"Using a dedicated controller, you can open a temporary channel at a specific position on that layer of energy field, which is where I came in."

Ethan nodded. In fact, it doesn't matter to him whether there is an exit or not. The big deal is to directly open a portal on the energy field and drive the spaceship to teleport outside.

For Ethan, who has mastered more and more abilities, a mere energy layer can't stop him at all.

"How did you get stuck here?"

As soon as this incident was mentioned, Betty seemed very depressed, but she still briefly described her experience.

The story is nothing special. In fact, Betty and her classmates were taking the assessment together. As a result, their team was very unlucky, and the progress was very difficult. They even experienced downsizing not long after they set off.

The scariest thing is not the reduction of staff, but the fact that the first one to die is actually the commander.

This incident was so weird that no one had ever heard of such a precedent. Betty and her companions were at a loss, not knowing what to do next.

Some people even proposed to give up the assessment and wait for the arrival of the rescue team.

Betty and her companions did not choose to give up the exam, but continued to bite the bullet and finally came to this route successfully. It seems that the only obstacle left is the stormy sea not far ahead.

As for the various monsters on the route, as long as they are careful and dodge in time, they don't have to worry too much. Even if they encounter them occasionally, there are still good combat students in the team.

For Betty's team, the biggest trouble is still the lack of a commander. When encountering problems, everyone goes their own way, everyone has their own ideas, and often quarrels over some trivial matters.

As a result, the team couldn't move forward any faster, so they quarreled again when they arrived at the island.

"This island is actually a resting place before the stormy sea, but it is also a test."

"test?"

After Betty's narration, Ethan knew that although there was no spiritual disturbance on this island, the whole island was deliberately designed to make people feel comfortable.

Beaches, grasslands, mountains, woods, and almost no sense of time passing, it is easy for people to have the idea of ​​living comfortably in this place for a longer time.

If too much time is accidentally wasted here, it is easy to fail the assessment due to wasting more time.

There is another option here, that is to choose to give up the subsequent exams on this island, so although this exam will be judged to fail, you will get an additional chance to make up the exam.

So when they arrived on the island, Betty's team had a quarrel, and the result of the quarrel was that the team split up, and an armed conflict almost broke out.

Betty looked at the increasingly tense classmates and lost confidence in completing the exam, so she chose to stay here and give up the exam.

This time, Betty became the target of intensive attacks from her classmates. Not only did these companions leave nothing behind for her, they even wanted to take away all the equipment she was carrying, although they were stopped by another classmate who had a good relationship with her and failed. , But it also made Betty completely lose trust in these companions.

Betty fled the team when everyone was resting at night, then found a hidden cave, sent a signal for help in it, and waited quietly for the arrival of the rescue team.

In the next few days, she secretly observed her classmates from a distance: they didn't look for her, and soon left by boat, and Betty stayed on the island waiting for rescue.

Betty chose to hibernate because the waiting rescue was delayed and she had to find ways to find food every day.

The technology of the dormant chamber of the empire is very advanced. You only need to carry a nano-device about the size of a finger on your body. Such a small thing can turn into a huge dormant chamber after opening—it can also be used as a single-person life support device when necessary Waiting for rescue in space.

It's just that once it is unfolded, it will be completely finalized, and it cannot be changed back into such a small nano-device and retracted.

"Is this island not going to sink into the sea like the others?"

More questions arose in Ethan's mind. Since this island is unsinkable, why didn't the so-called guild develop this island into another unsinkable island base? Considering that it is next to the stormy sea area, it seems that it can be used as a transfer point between the two sea areas?

"This island will always stay on the sea, and it is said that some very special technology is used to ensure that the environment on the island is always in a good state."

Ethan is a little interested in this so-called special technology. Unfortunately, Betty doesn't know much about this technology. She is just a student who came to take the exam. She knows a lot of technologies mastered by the empire, and even many advanced technologies She hadn't even heard of it.

She didn't know about the magical technology that kept the island in a good state for many years, and she only heard about it when she took the exam, but she didn't know exactly what happened.

"Since this island has always been on the sea and is still so beautiful, why are there no 'aboriginal people' to live on the island?"

Betty knew this, because before participating in the assessment, she gave detailed explanations for various situations.

"Non-student ships cannot approach this island. First of all, floating islands often appear on the periphery of the island for a long time. If there is no positioning device dedicated to students, the island pointer used by ordinary navigators will only lead them to other islands."

This time, Ethan just walked straight ahead, and didn't use the island pointer to find the floating island, so he discovered it by accident.

"When a ship without a special identification device approaches this island, it will encounter such things as lightning, storm or snowstorm, a huge vortex, etc... But these facilities may have lost their effect, otherwise you will not be able to approach here at all."

Ethan rubbed his chin, he really wanted to tell Betty now: he rushed over from the blizzard and countless maelstroms!
