How Am I Still Alive?

"Life is really surprising."

Originally, there were only three items in the explorer exam, and it only took two days to take the exam. As a result, Lu Pingan received the news the night after the first day of the exam.

"...If it is not postponed, many people will probably not be able to take the exam."

This is the result of organizing the assessment too hastily. Not only did many assessment contents fail to be finalized, but when it was actually operated, many mistakes were made.

The pressure of regulation-level pollution is a bit high. Or the organizers did not expect so many people to "have the courage to try".

Many people are still resting in wards or hotels. They have passed the test, but they may not be able to get out of bed.

Even if you force yourself to stand up, it is obviously too much to refer to the assessment or something.

Naturally, under the many opinions, it was mainly because the higher authorities also expected more people to meet the requirements, and finally reached an adjustment of "delay".

"Postpone a day?"

The extension time is not long, but it is enough to take a breath.

But now, compared to the initial huge number of people, less than one or two out of ten are still preparing to take part in the second test.

Half of the people chose to give up before the first round of testing, and at least half of the rest were eliminated in the first round.

What's more terrible is that a large part of the passers gave up after thinking about it and continued to refer. Although they gritted their teeth and persisted in the first wave of tests, they also paid the price.

Their pollution progress has been accelerated.

"Pollution" always stimulates each other. Some people's natural abilities are accelerated, and some people have some mutated organs that cannot be removed. Doctors are not omnipotent. On the contrary, their treatments are often costly.

This is a common result of high-level pollution erosion. The tester has mastered the dosage, so as long as a little "quantity" can be resisted, it will not have a great impact on each individual.

the problem lies in the heart

"I can't bear this little leak, if I stay in the outer domain for a long time."

Failure, or setbacks, calmed many people down.

Many people will naturally think of this question, whether to give up their relatively comfortable jobs now, and invest in a new world where high returns may not necessarily be high risks.

So, some of them chose to give up.

The reasons given to myself are also reasonable, "I will become stronger in a few years, and the chances will be higher before I go", "I haven't reached the peak yet, let me develop for two years."

The final result is that after a round of testing, the "survival rate" of each state hovered around 8% to 15%, which was already lower than expected.

Obviously, the Explorer Qualification Exam has replaced the Secret Keeper Qualification Exam and has become the most difficult and most valuable qualification.

You know, those who can apply for the Explorer exam are basically senior secret keepers, and most of them are veterans with innocence, firm will, and official background. They can be called the backbone of the original department. Their elimination rate is so terrible. It also shows the severity of the test.

"...Explorers are already quite dangerous. Instead of letting unqualified people hold back there, it is better to let them shine in the local area."

This insistence eventually caused the first test to be too strict, which is not a normal job for everyone.

In fact, the official also revealed that not all outer domains are such ultra-high-threat environments. On the contrary, most of the environments are even greener than the earth, and they only encounter such extreme environments very occasionally. But what the officials hope is that even if they encounter In this situation, there are still talents who can find ways to survive.

On the other hand, after such a big wave washed the sand, it also saved the human resources needed for the next assessment.

The extra day also made many people think about whether they should continue or not. Another group of people chose to quit.

It was quite normal for Lu Ping'an and his party to celebrate the three "candidates" successfully passing the first round.

At the same time, Lu Pingan also revealed that little secret.

"That's right, the man in black is me, this is a small function I newly developed."

Once this level of ability is developed, there is no reason not to use it.

Ranked among the top three death methods for secret keepers, out-of-control mutation, suicide, and homicide, the "slow death" that everyone must face, are the most helpless countdowns.

"I'm not reducing the amount of pollution, but I'm changing its effect on your 'body mutation' to one-third. In other words, if you can't get rid of that super pollution source, this kind of treatment is meaningless. And if the total amount If it is too high, one-third is the lethal dose, so don’t rely too much on it.”

In order to avoid unnecessary death and high expectations, Lu Pingan also explained the principle and limit of his ability in detail.

After other people understood it, they didn't underestimate this ability. On the contrary, they took it more seriously.

The human body, or the "professional" system of a professional, is similar to the immune system of the human body when facing pollution.

Any poison, virus, or dangerous substance is playing hooligans if it is only good or bad without talking about the dosage. The amount lower than the "flood levee" can be relieved, gradually digested or even ignored. If it collapses, it will die.

Therefore, a professional has a limit, beyond which there is basically no possibility of escape. However, Lu Pingan's ability can greatly increase the upper limit of the "limit", making many fatal situations a breeze.

Yes, there is no exaggeration, the original fatal amount can be regarded as harmless, there is actually no comparison between a third of the water level and a full load of water level, if Lu Ping'an's ability is used well, it is extremely powerful.

This is not what thick thighs are. Lu Pingan has never planned to talk about ideals and human relations. It is one thing for everyone to get along well, but it is the foundation for a team to go on that can obtain common interests and respective harvests.

On the other hand, the postponement also caused another thing to leak.

Originally, the examiners didn't know the content of the exam, but they didn't know their mission until the night before the exam.

But now that it was delayed by one day, naturally many people secretly leaked the secret. Once this kind of thing started, it became a well-known secret.

The exam has not been postponed again, and even the content of the exam has been revised.

Because this question is to prepare people for time, but it doesn’t actually make much sense. On the contrary, perhaps the author of the question just hopes that the examinees can prepare well and answer this question better.

"Convince us, why should we make you a seeker?"

Let the candidates speak out for themselves and convince those senior keepers.

"Tell me, if you become an explorer, what advantages do you have over others. And, what can you bring to this world."

The second item is the interview. Facing five examiners alone in a room, Lu Pingan was thoughtful.
