Hidden Corners

The Suiyang Mental Calculation Center itself does not have a dedicated building headquarters, but a simple department affiliated to the First People's Hospital.

When Li Chengyi arrived, he still doubted his eyes.

He looked at the two-story building next to the First People's Hospital, with the ~Rehabilitation and Health Center for Children with Intellectual Disabilities~.

I feel that the address given by Ding Ning is wrong.

"Brother Ding, are you sure it's here?" He looked at Ding Ning who was on the side.

This place, the former used to come here to play when I was a child, this small building belongs to the First People's Hospital, and there is an eye test center next to it. Almost all the elementary school students in Suiyang City have come here to test their eyesight.

"Just here, the entire Suiyang City has only a small number of newcomers. It doesn't take much manpower and institutions to calculate the brain power. Of course, it is impossible to spend a lot of money to maintain it all the time."

Ding Ning smiled. He was wearing a cool red T-shirt and white knee-high jeans. He wore an orange-peel peaked cap on his head, and his sunglasses reflected a faint color in the sun.

It doesn't look like an omnic at all, but an ordinary rebellious youth.

"This thing is just a formality for registration and getting a certificate. Anyway, if you can't pass the test, you have to buy a flying instrument, but it can determine which category you are suitable for."

He took the lead and walked towards the entrance of the small building.

Li Chengyi followed closely behind, still hesitating in his heart.

The two entered the gate, and there were several couples inside, waiting in line for the pre-screening with their children.

The fat nurse in front of the counter is patiently explaining what to do first and then what to do next.

"Go here." Ding Ning was familiar with the road, bypassing the queue, and walked to the inner corridor.

Li Chengyi continued to follow.

Soon, they walked along the corridor to the end, and in front of a small door near the toilet, the two pushed the door and entered.

"Old Zhao, here for business."

Inside the door is a small room with a large number of storage hard drives.

There is a table and chairs in the middle of the room.

A grey-haired man with a rigid complexion and tiger-skin glasses was carefully cleaning an old hard drive.

Hearing the voice, the man raised his head and glanced at Ding Ning.

"I thought Xiao Xu brought the first order of this month, but I didn't expect it to be Ni."

"Xiao Xu has a background, and his group has all kinds of equipment, so he doesn't need to come here to do calculations, okay?" Ding Ning smiled, and stretched out his hand to pull Li Chengyi forward.

"This is my brother, you can point out the result quickly."

"Okay." The man with glasses looked at Li Chengyi. "Name."

"Li Chengyi."

"age?"

"twenty four."

"Education?"

"Undergraduate."

"The so-called mental calculation, don't be nervous, it's just a three-dimensional test of consciousness."

The man with glasses softened his tone.

"It sounds complicated, but in fact, to become an omnicist, you need to be tested in three dimensions."

"First: Computing power is the test of complex operations."

"Second: the number of cores, that is, it can operate several targets at the same time."

"Third: distance, that is, the maximum distance at which the target can be manipulated."

"Okay, let's go directly to this." The man with glasses took out a black iron metal hat from the drawer and handed it to Li Chengyi.

Li Chengyi put it on obediently, and then looked at him.

"Then what?"

"Pay attention here, it's in my hand."

The man with glasses took out a small silver ball from his pocket.

Really small balls, only the size of a fingernail. The whole body is smooth and round, and it seems to be no different from ordinary metal marbles.

"Stare at it and imagine it floating gently by itself. Concentrate and don't get distracted!" the man with glasses urged.

Li Chengyi immediately understood, and immediately fixed his eyes on the little bead and remained motionless.

one second.

two seconds.

three seconds.

The beads floated up slowly, very slowly but firmly and steadily.

"Okay, not bad! Very good! One success!" The man with glasses smiled, "Then, control it to draw a circle."

Li Chengyi didn't make a sound, just stared at the bead, imagining that it started to draw a circle in mid-air.

The beads are very obedient, and draw a circle accurately.

"Then write on the paper here. Finish everything." The man with glasses took out another newspaper and pointed to a line of writing on it.

This difficulty is obviously much higher. Li Chengyi persisted, writing each word, and wrote ten words in less than two minutes.

"Very good! The full score of computing power is thirty to twenty-one." The man with glasses smiled.

"Then hold on to this bead, and another one." With his other hand, he took out another silver bead from the drawer.

Snapped.

After a little distraction, Li Chengyi lost control of the first bead.

"It can't be operated in parallel, and the number of cores is zero." The man in glasses is not surprised, it is very natural, obviously everyone is similar in the calculation of the number of cores.

"Then there is the distance. Try to imagine the beads flying far away. Where is the furthest?"

He compared his position, "Can you go to the wall behind me?"

Li Chengyi regained control of the ball and floated tremblingly. Hearing this, he quickly controlled it and flew towards the wall.

But as soon as it flew a little farther, a few centimeters at most, the beads immediately lost control and fell down.

"Distance: five points." The man with glasses quickly took a pen to record it.

"It's a little strange. Your consciousness and computing power are very good. Among the newcomers, it is regarded as the top grade. But the number of cores and the distance are very ordinary, or basically at the level of ordinary people without qualifications. This is like doing more out of thin air. It’s the same computing power for one session.”

"What is the computing power generally determined by?" Li Chengyi asked curiously.

"The stronger your spirit, the better your energy, the clearer your mind, and the higher your computing power. The stronger your computing power, the more durable it is. To put it simply, you have more consciousness." The man with glasses explained.

He knocked on the table.

Suddenly, a translucent light curtain emerged in front of him out of thin air.

With a swipe on the light curtain, a large pattern and text emerged.

"The computing power is strong, but the other two are weak. You are suitable for controlling two flying instruments."

"The first type is a single large flying instrument with heavy weight, strong lethality, and short distance."

"The second type is a single medium-sized flying instrument with medium weight, medium lethality, and short distance."

"I'm ready here." Ding Ning on the side answered, "Old Zhao, I've saved the flying instruments you have here, take them out."

"Hmm. It's for this kid?" Old Zhao suddenly understood, turned around, and took out five boxes from a cardboard box on the ground in the corner.

Each of the five boxes is only the size of a fist, with a silver-black metal texture on the surface, and a mark on the side: Made in Andu.

"The direction of adaptation is Andu's land transformation system, you choose one yourself." The man with glasses looked at Li Chengyi.

"This is a 20 million flying instrument??!" Li Chengyi looked at the casual attitude of the two of them, the treatment of randomly throwing them in a cardboard box worth a few yuan each.

There is a strong sense of unreality.

"Yes, that's it. Don't worry, you can't smash this thing with a deadly smash. The flying instrument is not as easy to break as you think. It is only possible if it hits the alloy material at super high speed after it is activated. Damaged." The man with glasses explained.

"What are the shapes of these five? Can you tell me?" Li Chengyi looked bewildered and asked him to choose. He couldn't see anything, and he didn't understand anything.

"You only have one core, that is, you can only control one flying device, so get rid of these two first." Ding Ning stretched out his hand and pushed the two boxes on both sides away.

"Then, your distance is very short, not suitable for flying too fast. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will not be able to see your flying instrument. Then, remove this."

Ding Ning pushed another box away.

Then there are only two left.

He picks up a box on the left.

Toss lightly.

click.

There was a crisp sound.

The box suddenly split from the middle, deformed and reassembled like a building block.

In just a few seconds, it was combined into a simple blue double-edged long sword.

"Close-range weapon flying instrument - Qingwu sword, medium weight, high sharpness, hand-held, automatic boost, explosive force, cutting, built-in three sets of Qingwu sword skills, which can be used in three situations of attack, defense and escape. "

After Ding Ning finished speaking, he picked up another box and threw it away in the same way.

The box split, deformed, and reassembled, and soon turned into a pure black double-edged crescent axe.

The end of this ax is wrapped with a chain, and it is as wide as half a person. It is suspended in mid-air, and the blades on both sides almost extend to the end of the handle.

"This is a peace of mind axe, with high hardness and heavy weight. It can be used as a defensive shield. It has a long flight time and can carry many weapon modules, but it consumes a lot of consciousness and has a short distance. It is very difficult to control. The advantage is that it can With more modules, the upper force field will be thicker and more durable in the later stage." Ding Ning introduced.

"The peace of mind ax is still very useful, the leather is thick and thick, it is not easy to damage the module, and it is cheap to repair if it is damaged. You can also replace the soul-breaking axe, giant door axe, etc., to reach the ultimate in defense and attack." The man with glasses introduce.

As soon as Li Chengyi heard that it was honest and cheap to repair, he immediately understood that this was the flying instrument he wanted!

"That's it!" He stretched out a finger, pointing straight at the direction of the An Xin axe.

"By the way, is its name An Xin Axe?" Li Chengyi asked.

"Of course it's impossible. It's just that we habitually call this kind of large-area door ax the peace axe. Each flying instrument has its own name." Ding Ning rubbed his chin, "And this one, the original name you You can pick it up by yourself. After all, you can choose and install modules by yourself.”

"I'll take it myself." Li Chengyi thought for a while, "It's so big." He paused, "Let's call it Niu Tou."

"It's best to be unique, otherwise it will be easily confused with other flying instruments. Although it also has voiceprint recognition, the response speed will be slower." Ding Ning reminded.

"That's called Black Whirlwind Bull Head." Li Chengyi confirmed it.

".Why are you so attached to Niutou?" Ding Ning said speechlessly.

"It looks very similar." Li Chengyi said.

"It's up to you. The situation is not very right recently, you'd better hurry up if you want to add modules. Because of your big size, you black whirlwind bull head has five modules that can be installed. Except for energy and instrument control, you can choose three There is a vacancy, and the input of the ax method comes with it, but there are only basic routines in it, and you need to customize it yourself."

Ding Ning took out his phone and glanced at the message.

"For the selection of equipment, you choose slowly. I have to take a step ahead. The prepaid money from your boss has already arrived in the account. Finally, remember to record the voiceprint, pupil fingerprints and so on."

"Okay!" Li Chengyi nodded.

Then watch him pick up his phone, dial a number, start calling, and walk out of the room.

"People at Ding Ning's level even came to Suiyang to make a special trip to Suiyang for this matter. You are taken seriously." The man with glasses said beside him.

"Brother Ding's level? I know it's very high, but how is it compared to our omnicists in Suiyang?" Li Chengyi recalled that the few omnicists he met seemed to be not very good at fighting. It takes seconds for melee combat.

That is, the guy from the security department was very difficult to deal with. He ran a long way and was beaten.

"The highest level in Suiyang is Ding Zaocheng, so he became the deputy director of the Safety Department. Ding Zaocheng is an amateur omnician with a ninth-dan rank and has participated in many competitions. He is a very strong amateur player." The man with glasses replied .
