Chapter 86 Review and Reflection
Now the light spot embossed on the pocket watch in Linnard's mind has expanded from the size of a mung bean to a soybean. His body has been fully strengthened again, and his attributes in all aspects have increased several times. He is estimated to be almost the same as Althea.
In other words, he has grown from a scumbag with 10 points of combat power to a cannon fodder with 20 points of combat power.
If we do this a few more times, we should be able to catch up with the mutated snake man in no time.
However, Linnard never entertained this idea at all.
Having already experienced it once, he knew very well that liberating tentacles was an extremely dangerous act.
Last time he was able to suppress the tentacles again after completely letting go of the restraints. On the one hand, his natural brain defect saved him.
On the other hand, it is completely a matter of luck, commonly known as the possession of the European Emperor, and is an event of extremely low probability.
If you rely on "liberating tentacles" to become stronger, it's like having half a foot in the grave.
Not far from violent death.
Ignoring these, the scene in front of him and the previous conversation between the two confirmed that his conjecture was correct. This was indeed the process for official organizations to recruit new members.
Everything is a test for these potential members, from the previous question and answer room to the current ability test.
He was not worried about whether his superb acting skills had deceived the middle-aged man Lynard before. Halfway through, he realized that these issues were not the focus.
He knew very well about psychology that the questions asked by the middle-aged man seemed normal, as if the contents of the questions were extremely important to those who survived the awakening after being involved in strange events.
This can effectively determine whether they are mentally contaminated and have anti-social consciousness.
But this is all too superficial and formalistic.
No one will show their evil side nakedly, especially in front of officials.
The key to Q&A is not the questions at all, but rather the use of meaningless questions to arouse the awakened person's own vigilance, subconsciously arouse their own superpowers, and the questioner secretly conducts a comprehensive exploration of the awakened person.
Even without careful investigation, Linnard was certain that the special 'lead room' made of various metals must have the function of restricting, recording, and evaluating extraordinary abilities.
Of course, even if these speculations are false, Linnard is not worried that his performance will not deceive the questioner.
The years he spent in a mental hospital and being studied by others had made him very good at acting like a normal person.
The question he needs to think about now is how he should express his level in the ability test.
Not to mention the tentacles in his body, Linnard didn't know if there was any official way to detect creatures carrying the aura of the 'old days'.
He also doesn’t know the official’s views and acceptance of related matters.
Judging from the information he has learned so far, anything involving the 'old days' level meets several characteristics.
‘Weird’, ‘powerful’, ‘chaotic’.
Except under forced circumstances, Linnard did not intend to take the initiative to reveal the fact that he was carrying tentacles.
At first, he didn't even plan to show his tentacles in front of Orthea, and deliberately avoided her when using his abilities.
Until he faced a dead end situation without using the tentacles, he reluctantly used the tentacles several times, and tried his best to hide the "old days" characteristics of the tentacles.
Although this was somewhat force majeure, it was also a decision made after Linnard evaluated Althea's mind through a comprehensive assessment.
He believed that the probability of the latter betraying him was extremely low.
Althea also proved that she was trustworthy by standing up when she encountered a mutant snake-man, allowing Lynyrd to release the restrictions on her tentacles for her, setting off a small "Old Day" coming.
Linnard believed that judging from the official attitude towards him, they should not yet associate the violent "old days" atmosphere with him.
They should be eager to trace the origin and whereabouts of Snake Town and figure out where such a big hole in their territory originated.
As for the ‘Old Day’ that appeared on the scene at that time, they probably placed it on the snake man’s head.
This also means that Althea did not tell them the truth.
Although Althea had fallen into a coma when she used her ability, she had seen Lynard's tentacles several times. Combined with a series of events, it was not difficult to guess that the "old days" of that day were inseparable from Lynard's tentacles.
relation.
As a member of the royal family, she chose to conceal this matter. Does this prove the official attitude towards the ‘old days’?
Linard thought for a while, and his vision returned to focus.
The number of people queuing up in front has become much smaller, and it is the turn of the young man who has been anxious and excited from the beginning.
"Paulson, I'll go first, you watch!"
The young man calmly let the people around him press a strange-shaped seal on his forehead, and then he walked through an ordinary wooden door frame and walked into the center of the venue.
"It's almost my turn for the aptitude test. This is an opportunity to join the official force."
In Linard's plan, joining the official team is an important part.
When he first arrived, he knew very well that understanding the current world's ability levels and information about the extraordinary world was a top priority.
There must be a lot of secrets and weirdness involved in this, and relying on your own personal efforts to explore through clues among the people will never be faster than joining any official force.
Knowledge is always priceless, especially extraordinary knowledge.
What he needs to figure out now is the criteria for official forces to accept new members.
From the conversation between the two just now, we can know that the official does not reject anyone who comes. As long as you awaken your superpower, you will absorb it directly.
If you fail the aptitude test, you will still be rejected.
And even if you pass, you will be assigned jobs based on your performance. If you are unlucky and have poor performance, you will most likely be transferred out of Lanzas, and you will not know where you will be assigned.
Judging from Linard's current combat power, compared with Althea, a person with royal blood, he is evenly matched. It should not be difficult to pass the ability test.
What's difficult is what level of combat power he has to show.
An ordinary civilian detective awakened his super powers in an accidental encounter. When he was tested on the first day of junior high school, he showed that he had the same combat power as the upper-class people who had been painstakingly cultivated in the royal family.
Who are you fooling?
When the time comes, overt and covert targeting and probing will definitely be inevitable.
Linnard just wanted to obtain information through official forces and further deepen his contact with the extraordinary world of this world. This kind of showy behavior must be stopped.
Therefore, he estimated that he should reflect the upper level among the crowd, neither appear too weak to be used, nor stand out to the extreme, becoming the brightest new star.
