Trading Cosmic Battleship From The Start-Chapter 115 - 98: The Warrior Bearing the Future
Chapter 115: Chapter 98: The Warrior Bearing the Future
He noticed that some people, like him, were covered in a layer of dust, which meant they came directly from the battlefield!
This gave off a very strong sense of urgency!
As the crowd quickly assembled in the square, several middle-aged men in new military uniforms walked towards them.
Those were... the command uniforms of the Human Federation!
Chen Feng stood with his hands close to his pants, posture straight, but there was undisguised surprise in his eyes.
He recognized these people as a few instructors from their special squad training base!
He was aware of the global military reform, even having heard that their active-duty soldiers might have to take on a Human Federation rank and obey the supreme commander of the Human Federation when necessary. But now, this was a secret military base in the Eastern Country, and these individuals were also soldiers of the Eastern Country. How did they come to wear the uniforms of the Human Federation... Could it really be that there will be a globally unified military management?
"I know there are many questions in your hearts, but time is short, so let us be brief," one of them stepped forward, speaking in a loud voice, skipping even the self-introduction, "The reason for gathering everyone is just one: the Human Federation is about to form a highly important special corps! You are all elite warriors of our country, even the kings of soldiers! People’s heroes! However, in the future, only by joining this special corps can you truly be considered elite warriors! Only then can you bring true honor to yourself and to your country! Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Chen Feng and the other warriors shouted in unison.
But their faces could not hide their shock.
Because these words had exalted this "special corps" too much!
The military is a place that values honor, but it sounded as if, should they fail to be selected into this special corps, their past honors, achievements, and even their own capabilities would be completely denied?
What exactly was that special corps, and for what kind of mission was it created?
"Since it is clear now, the first assessment will begin immediately!" The leading person did not even give them time for preparation or rest, only saying at the end, "In the past, you were the pride of the nation, and we sincerely hope that in this drastically changing world, you can continue your glory and remain the pride of not just the nation, but all of humanity!"
These words caused many people to stiffen their expressions.
Yes, they were the pride of the country.
Whatever this special corps might be, whatever assessments lay ahead, as long as the country and its people needed them, they would do their utmost, rushing forward regardless of the cost!
This was their mission to realize their self-worth!
Chen Feng was even more confident in this.
He was an ace sniper and an elite warrior, with an unbreakable will beneath his muted exterior!
However... what happened next continued to surprise Chen Feng even more.
Originally, he thought the so-called assessment would be physical training or skill training, just like all the assessments in the past; he even considered whether to request a rest to adjust to his optimal state. But instead, they were divided into squads of ten and then led into a small room.
Aside from some chairs, a projector, and a camera facing them, there was nothing else.
Could it be a knowledge assessment?
"Please focus and gaze at the curtain," said a person in the Human Federation command uniform standing in the corner to everyone.
Once Chen Feng and everyone else complied, a voice said, "Begin."
Then, he felt a momentary disorientation.
When he snapped back, everything in front of him seemed unchanged, and the projector screen remained a blank white.
No, something was off—!
Chen Feng suddenly realized that as an ace sniper, it was impossible for him to be distracted when asked to concentrate!
And at this moment, he noticed an even stranger situation: aside from him and the examiner, everyone else had contorted expressions yet sat motionless in their chairs!
This instinctively made him jump up on alert.
"Please do not disturb the others’ assessment," the examiner’s voice came at this time.
"..." Chen Feng remained silent for a moment, then sat back down into his chair.
But his muscles remained tightly wound.
He had already realized that this assessment was nothing like any they had known from the past!
After over ten seconds, the others gradually woke up; Chen Feng observed that most of them showed no reaction, as if the contorted expressions just now had never occurred, believing they only experienced a brief disorientation.
Only those who woke up first noticed the strange situation around them.
"Alright, the assessment is over. Congratulations, all of you have met the minimum requirements. Next, go collect your printed results, and place them in your assessment dossier," the examiner said, carrying some dossier envelopes as he walked up to them, distributing them while continuing, "This assessment is conducted for the entire active-duty military, and you have the privilege of being the first batch of soldiers to undergo it. Whether you can become the first batch selected still depends on your subsequent related assessment scores..."
Chen Feng took his dossier, collecting his assessment results.
On it, besides his name, photo, and code, there was only one number.
