Chapter 109 True Combat Strength, Arranging Patrol Areas
In the very center of the measuring room stands a silver platform that is half a meter high.
Zhang Xiaoyuan glanced at it and strode forward.
"be prepared!"
Seeing that Zhang Xiaoyuan wasn't nervous at all, Old Li couldn't help but whisper a warning, since using a machine at its highest power was a very serious matter.
"Unleash your full power! The test will begin in three seconds."
As soon as Lao Li finished speaking, a transparent glass partition suddenly appeared in front of Zhang Xiaoyuan, separating her from the others on the platform.
"You don't need to worry, this is to prevent any internal force from splashing out and causing damage during the test."
After Old Li finished speaking, everyone heard the countdown.
[The level test is about to begin, three, two, one!]
hum!
Zhang Xiaoyuan felt a jolt in her body as several instruments emitted energy beams that passed through the glass dome in front of them and shot straight toward Zhang Xiaoyuan.
Zhang Xiaoyuan instinctively went into defensive mode, stacking multiple defensive measures on her body to block the energy rays outside for a moment.
"Phew, increase the radiation intensity."
Old Li breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhang Xiaoyuan had successfully withstood the wave of rays. At the same time, he was also surprised. Being able to successfully withstand it meant that Zhang Xiaoyuan's level had indeed reached level 40.
Without saying a word, the other operators next to them increased the power of the instrument by one digit.
However, Zhang Xiaoyuan remained unharmed and calmly looked at everyone.
"Keep increasing the pressure!"
"Give me more!"
"Don't be stingy, keep increasing the amount!"
"..."
Next to Lao Li, Zhou Haiping saw that the instrument's power had reached the highest level of fifty, and his expression immediately changed. He quickly went to Lao Li's side and told him to stop.
"Get out of my way! The test isn't over yet, don't bother me!"
Old Li said to Zhou Haiping in an annoyed tone.
Since you've guaranteed to take responsibility if anything goes wrong, then fine, he'll test it to his heart's content.
The test results aren't out yet, so why should he stop?!
"Hey, Lao Li, that's enough. Now that we know he has the ability, you don't need to worry about anything else!"
Zhou Haiping scratched his head anxiously. Although he couldn't operate the equipment, he had seen so many people being tested and could understand the data. He knew that the test conditions for Zhang Xiaoyuan were for level 50 ability users.
Zhang Xiaoyuan already stated it was level 40, so using a level 50 energy ray to test it would be disastrous for Zhang Xiaoyuan!
"Hmph, I know what I'm doing!"
Old Li glared at Zhou Haiping with displeasure, then gestured for the other staff to stop the equipment.
hum!
As the instrument stopped emitting energy rays, the glass shield in front of Zhang Xiaoyuan opened, and he stepped off the platform.
"Have the results come out yet? Is it level 40?"
Zhang Xiaoyuan stretched and moved her body.
Although the energy ray wasn't very powerful and was within his tolerance range, it still caused his skin to feel a slight burning sensation.
Zhang Xiaoyuan guessed that perhaps in just a short while, some of the fat in his body had been burned.
He looked down at his stomach; although it was still there, it was much smaller than when he had first transmigrated to this world.
Perhaps by the end of summer vacation and the start of university, he will have a normal physique.
"The results are in. Captain Zhou, take a look for yourself."
Old Li already knew the test results, which he could tell from Zhang Xiaoyuan's performance.
However, when Zhou Haiping, Liang Long, and other leaders saw the test results, they were utterly astonished.
"Level 50? But Xiaoyuan clearly said he was level 40, how could he be level 50? Lao Li, is there a problem with the testing process, or are some of the instruments broken?"
Liang Long frowned and asked, "There's a significant difference between level 40 and level 50, especially since humans undergo a qualitative change after level 50."
"Hmph, the data I measured is level 50. If the instrument is faulty, you can replace it with a new one and test again. I didn't stop you from replacing it."
Old Li pursed his lips, slumped over, and sat back down in his chair.
"Well, we're short on funds right now, so we just want to double-check to ensure that Zhang Xiaoyuan's combat capabilities can be fully utilized."
Liang Long and other leaders chuckled dryly, joking that the testing equipment was so expensive, where would they get the money to replace it with new ones? They could only wait for the equipment above to "retire" before they could "recycle" it.
"Alright, the test is over. You can leave now. Don't disturb our equipment maintenance."
Old Li impatiently shooed everyone away, and seeing that everyone had left, he became so excited that he jumped up and down on the spot.
"Damn, what kind of talent is this? It's incredible! I've never encountered anything like it before, not even in the provincial capital!"
And judging from the boy's relaxed demeanor, he clearly hadn't reached his limit. What does this mean? Level 50 wasn't the boy's limit, but the limit of the measuring instrument!
……
Back in the conference room, Zhou Haiping and the others looked at Zhang Xiaoyuan as if she were a monster.
"So, Xiaoyuan, are you level 40 or level 50 right now?"
Zhou Haiping asked in a deep voice.
If Zhang Xiaoyuan is truly level 50, then it wouldn't be unreasonable for her to easily defeat him in an arm wrestling match.
"Level 40, but his strength may be greater than that of other God-given individuals."
Zhang Xiaoyuan thought for a moment and then offered an explanation.
Those instruments can detect that he is level 50, perhaps not by looking at the level marked on the data panel, but by judging him based on a combination of his various ability values.
"I'll just say it."
Zhou Haiping felt relieved. Zhang Xiaoyuan had a talent for strength, so it wasn't so unacceptable that he lost to Zhang Xiaoyuan, who was at level 40.
The instrument detected that the opponent's level was 50, indicating that Zhang Xiaoyuan's strength was close to level 50.
"Well, now that Xiaoyuan's combat power is comparable to Captain Zhou Haiping's, the area she can patrol has increased."
As soon as Chen Zhen finished speaking, a map projection of the county town appeared on the electronic screen next to him.
It was marked with many red dots, and there was a black skull on the edge area, which looked somewhat dangerous.
Zhang Xiaoyuan tried to recall what place it was; it seemed to be a mountain.
It used to be a famous tourist attraction, but for some reason, not many people come to visit it anymore.
"These red dots are Warcraft information we compiled based on feedback from the townships below."
Chen Zhen pointed to some of the yellow dots and said, "These yellow dots represent areas where the existence of magical beasts is uncertain. Some phenomena make it impossible to determine whether magical beasts exist; they could also be the work of humans, and need to be verified."
"And the area that Xiaoyuan needs to patrol is right here."
As Chen Zhen spoke, he pointed to an area below the black skull.
This is also the area with the highest density of red dots.
"It would be dangerous for others, but it would be much easier for Xiaoyuan, whose combat power is close to level 50."
After Chen Zhen finished speaking, he smiled. With the addition of Zhang Xiaoyuan, such a powerful combatant, their pressure would be greatly relieved.
"Commander Chen, I'd like to ask you something. What does that black skull represent? Would you mind telling me?"
