Chapter 13 Assessment
"During this period, we have been observing you, and your performance can be described as 'excellent'." The woman said, "But these are just appearances. Whether your deep-seated mental state is stable still needs to go through a series of Special assessment. Only if you pass the assessment can we grant you the status of 'Trick Hunter'."
"What is the assessment method? What do I need to do?" Sun Hang asked.
"You will find out if you follow them to the room dedicated to assessment and testing." The woman stretched out her finger and clicked on the holographic screen floating in front of her. A passage immediately appeared on the wall on one side of the room, with four people wearing full sets of heavy protective clothing. people came in.
They quickly helped Sun Hang put on the "test suit"-this so-called test suit, except for a pair of pure white pants, only had a large white cloth with three holes dug into it. Sun Hang only needed to put his arms and head on. When you get out of these three holes, you are considered to have worn it.
"Are you planning to dissect me?" Sun Hang looked at the test suit with some suspicion and asked.
"You can rest assured that the entire assessment process will not cause any harm to you." The woman shook her head, "You don't even need to draw blood."
……
After Sun Hang left with the four people, the woman turned to look at the old man in the wheelchair and asked in a low voice: "Teacher, there is one thing... I don't know whether I should ask."
"Tell me." The old man raised his head and looked at his student, with a kind look finally appearing on his face.
"I have always been puzzled. Did the deception virus infected by 0420 really come from Taotie?"
"Where are the doubts?"
"Taotie, as a very special singular individual among Type C monsters, its most notable feature is that it will devour all living things it comes into contact with, but it will never release the ghost virus to the outside world. If we say, other The monster will release viruses with its own 'meme' to infect and assimilate those things that come into contact with it, so Taotie It does the opposite - it will only devour the carriers of those 'memes' and embed these 'fragments' into its own 'memes'. It is precisely because of this characteristic that every year's academic conferences are held. Some people will suggest that we change the code name of Taotie to 'Pixiu', which symbolizes 'only in but not out'..."
"Are you suspecting that he was infected by a strange creature, not Taotie?" the old man interrupted the student and asked.
"Yes, teacher." The woman nodded, "So far, there have been a total of 314 attacks by monsters, including clones, directly or indirectly caused by Taotie. Among these 314 attacks There was never any infection during the incident Even if there are other monsters in the incident, they will be swallowed up by Taotie. It is for this reason that the rescue team will skip the routine infection test process after confirming that the attacking monster is a clone of Taotie... ”
"Because people infected by the deception virus will become the highest priority prey in the eyes of the Taotie. So they subconsciously believe that there will be no infected among the survivors." The middle-aged man said, "The people responsible for the rescue operation have suffered Punishment, I promise that nothing like this will happen again.”
"But..." The woman wanted to say something more, but the old man in the wheelchair raised his hand and stopped him.
"Whether it is his infection process, the detected 'meme' sequence, or the abnormalities displayed when in contact with strange objects, they can all be matched with 'Taotie'... Yang Qi, You have made a very serious mistake: never use past experience to make judgments about monsters.”
"T-Teacher..." The woman was stunned for a moment, with a look of shame on her face.
"Sometimes, you may not even believe what you see with your own eyes, so how can you believe what is recorded in documents?" the old man said slowly.
"Teacher, I know I was wrong." The woman lowered her head.
"Remember, if an investigator or hunter makes a mistake, the worst result is that the mission fails. But if we make a mistake, it will lead to catastrophic consequences."
……
... Sun Hang was taken to another room filled with precision instruments that were obviously valuable at first glance. The staff asked him to lie down on the large operating chair in the middle of the room. Then, they placed several Hundreds of electrode pads were attached to Sun Hang's body.
After attaching the electrodes, the two staff members worked together to push a camera in front of the operating chair. The bracket holding the camera was pulled out, and the glass lens with rainbow luster came straight over, just a short distance from the tip of Sun Hang's nose. There is only less than two centimeters away.
After fixing the bracket, the staff left the room, and the lights in the room were turned off, leaving only a beam of light coming from the ceiling, covering Sun Hang inside.
"Test template, standard, test content, custom 01, subject number, 0420." An emotionless electronic synthesized voice came from the loudspeaker next to the camera, "Please don't be nervous and keep your emotions as stable as possible. and breathing smoothly, you will have enough time to relax as much as possible before the test begins. ”
"Will emotional stress affect the test results?"
"No."
"Then let's start now. I'm quite relaxed." Sun Hang said while lying on his back on the operating chair, staring at the camera close at hand.
"During the test, part of a long poem will be played, and all you need to do is repeat the verses between each sentence. In addition, some random questions will be interspersed between the verses. You don’t have to answer the questions, just recite the verses,” the electronic voice continues.
"Then how do I tell which sentence is a poem and which sentence is a question you asked?"
"All poems are declarative sentences, and all random questions are questions, which are easy to distinguish. If you accidentally repeat the content of the question, it will not affect the content of the test." The electronic synthesized voice said.
"Okay."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Testing begins."
After a burst of meaningless white noise, the brightness of the light surrounding Sun Hang began to grow stronger, and the surroundings of the room seemed darker in contrast.
The constantly beating indicator lights on those devices all went out in unison. Sun Hang felt like he was floating in the deep and boundless space, and the edges of the space gradually became blurred.
"The blood-black void began to weave a network," the electronic synthesized sound no longer seemed to come from the ears, but from the distant dark space, which was void and ethereal.
"The blood-black void began to weave a network," Sun Hang recounted.
"Are you afraid of the dark? Have you ever imagined yourself in an environment with no light at all?"
According to the requirements of the test, Sun Hang did not answer this question.
"Cells are connected and connected again,"
"Cells are connected and connected again," Sun Hang repeated.
