Elite Mages’ Academy

"Ah?" These people who tried to use the decision of the majority to sway Xiao Lin's command were stunned, and they were a bit unexpected by this result.

"Break?"

"That's right, it's good to divide into two ways. If you want to go to the reconnaissance mission, you can go there. If you don't want to die for the time being, you can follow me!" Xiao Lin said to the others.

Wang Dalin's face darkened: "What do you mean?"

Xiao Lin said calmly: "It's very simple. Going to investigate now is just courting death."

"why?"

Xiao Lin sneered: "Your brain is not muddled, you don't know how to think about it yourself!"

Xiao Lin didn't bother to explain to him that although the people who received A or B evaluations all had their own little thoughts, on the surface everyone was friendly and didn't directly turn against each other. They all understood that no matter what the future holds, at least three Within a month, he, Xiao Lin, will be the squad leader, so only Wang Dalin, an idiot, will be treated as an idiot against him.

"You!" Wang Dalin laughed angrily: "Actually, your attributes are too low, and you often miss classes, so you are afraid, afraid that we will complete optional tasks and get a higher assessment evaluation than you, right? No matter what, let’s split up, those who are willing to take credits and exchange points come with us!”

The debate lasted for more than ten minutes. Xiao Lin was firmly opposed to going directly to reconnaissance, and the others refused to give in. The differences between the two sides are actually conservative and radical. If they enter the canyon, it means that they may only be able to complete the required tasks. . In the end, there were 39 people who followed Wang Dalin and others, while Xiao Lin and himself only had 20 people.

This distribution of the number of people satisfied many people. The capable woman said: "If 30% of the people complete the required task, even if the whole class completes it together, the division is actually not bad."

"Xiao Lin, why don't we decide on a meeting point, no matter whether we have completed the reconnaissance mission or not, we will rush to the meeting point in three days, when the time comes, everyone will act together to complete the required mission, how about it?" The other man seemed to feel a little uncomfortable OK.

Except for Wang Dalin, the others also nodded as a matter of course. Once they are forced to separate in case of danger, those who are alone will subconsciously want to find a team and set a meeting point. I can guarantee that it will not be discovered.

"No!" A crisp voice sounded, and everyone was surprised that Gu Xiaoyue was the one who objected immediately. This girl was standing beside Xiao Lin. Apart from staring coldly, there was no other expression.

Xiao Lin glanced at Gu Xiaoyue with a cold face, touched his nose, and suddenly nodded happily: "Okay, then let's set a meeting point! Don't interrupt, I'm the squad leader, I have the final say!"

The last sentence was addressed to Gu Xiaoyue, the girl gave him a strange look and stopped talking.

Xiao Lin spread out his notebook and looked at it for a while, then casually drew a circle at a fork in a canyon, and said, "If you really want to come back, you should gather at this intersection!"

Wang Dalin snorted through his nostrils, acquiescing to this decision.

After that, the two people parted ways here, and more than 30 people left to the plain behind them. It was not until they were completely gone that Xiao Lin clapped his hands and said, "Then let's go too."

In addition to Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue, there were 18 people left behind. Xiao Lin didn't think that these people stayed because of his trust in him, but simply because they thought it might be dangerous to do reconnaissance. It is true that danger and reward coexist, but if it is really time for life and death, you may not think so.

For the past month, Xiao Lin's daily life has been spent between the training hall, the dormitory and the logistics department. Although the entire Class 7 members know who he is, Xiao Lin may not know everyone else.

"Squad leader, where are we going?"

"Go to the assembly point and wait for them to come back?"

"Why wait for them, let's go straight through Sunset Canyon and reach the safe area!"

"Yeah yeah,

We have 20 people here, which already meets the requirement of 30% of the total number of people. "

...

Gu Xiaoyue pushed her glasses, and suddenly asked in a cold voice: "Are you really going to give up the two optional tasks and only complete the required tasks?"

Xiao Lin said with a smile: "If I said yes, you wouldn't just turn around and leave right... Cough, wait, I'm just kidding!"

Seeing that Gu Xiaoyue was really planning to leave, Xiao Lin quickly called her to stop, and called other people over, and said after deliberation: "Then let me talk about my plan first. First of all, everyone must understand that it is impossible to go directly through the Sunset Canyon. Yes, I don't intend to give up the two optional missions."

There was a commotion among more than a dozen people, and a girl was very dissatisfied: "I just stay here because I don't want to take risks. My life span is only enough to die three times!"

Xiao Lin sighed: "But you don't really think that the so-called monthly exam is this level of difficulty, do you? Open your backpack and take a good look for yourself. A pot of water and a small box of biscuits are given to us by the college. All the supplies, we have to survive in this place for seven days, do you think this is enough?"

When they were thrown into this simulated battlefield, the academy also automatically distributed a backpack to everyone, which was regarded as free mission equipment.

The girl who complained just now was immediately dumbfounded, looked at each other for a while, and asked without confidence: "How long does it take to cross the Sunset Canyon?"

"Judging from the topographical map, the Sunset Canyon is very large, with many forks in it, and most of them are still dead ends. Although I sketched about 70% to 80% of them, I can't guarantee the remaining 10% to 20%. Judging from the state, it will take three days to get out of the canyon."

"This little food and water is only enough for a day." Someone said uncertainly.

"Half a day." Gu Xiaoyue gave a more accurate calculation.

Xiao Lin nodded: "The temperature here is too high, I'm afraid it must be over 40 degrees. The food is good. If it is not possible, you can even hunt halfway. Didn't the map data say that there are a small number of monsters in the Sunset Canyon? The key problem is water. If you are on the road at this temperature, you will be dehydrated after half a day, and this amount of water is definitely not enough."

The canyon is surrounded by desolation, only large and small gravel. In the blue sky, there is no cloud except for a goshawk soaring and circling. The scorching sun is baking the ground unscrupulously. A fine layer of sweat oozes out.

The monthly test environment is a simulated Norma world. Although I don't know what kind of super technology or spells are used, according to Qin Chuan and Song Junlang, the degree of reproduction of this simulation is almost 100% realistic.

There is only one sun in the world of Norma, but it is slightly larger than the sun on the earth, it is dark red, and it releases more heat, so the temperature of the planet Norma during the day is generally higher than that of the earth.

"So, we need supplies, or in other words, we need to find a supply station first!"

After saying that, Xiao Lin pointed to a large circle that he highlighted in the notebook. When Wang Dalin wooed other people just now, he was doing this work.

"Supply station? Is this thing marked in the distributed materials?" Someone asked suspiciously.

"If you look carefully at the markers next to the map, you will find some interesting things. For example, the water source is marked in a wave-like shape, but the nearest water source is four or five days away from us. The plants are in the shape of leaves. These animal-like markers should be creatures in this area, but I don’t understand what these creatures represent for the time being.”

After a pause, Xiao Lin pointed to several other signs: "Some signs are not very clear. After all, we still don't know much about the humanities and customs of the Norma world, but there is only one sign similar to the shape of a building. If I guessed right, this should be something like a nearby supply station!") Book friends, pay attention!
