"For the 300 candidates, they need to be physically fit and have coood sense of direction as well That is what I’ve learned from our previousYao Yuan and Guang Zhen were sitting in the captain’s roo over the Hope’s military files Their first draft of selection contained 800 people, and even though the 800 selected were experienced soldiers, Yao Yuan’s frown deepened as they went deeper into the pile

Guang Zhen argued, "Couldn’t we rely on intense training? How about forain, the Hope doesn’t have hed "I suppose it’ll have to be that way How about this, we’ll ask the Workshop to build us a space-combat simulator inside a faux shuttle cabin to test these people’s power of adaptation to combat in space… All the Homo Evolutis will have to join, the Whisperers and Thinker included"

Guang Zhen stopped short of his work "Do you , this is unadvisable The Acadehly protective of Bo Li and Ivan I swear to God, they will go on a strike if you actively put them in harm’s way!"

"Don’t worry This is just for the simulator I want to test Ivan’s theory that Ho to the space environrain of truth in his hypothesis Actually, in that case, arrange for all the Virus X survivors to take part in the simulation as well"

The simulation was carried out 1 week later, and of the 800 first draft candidates, only 106 people passed, while all but 1 Virus X survivors passed the test That person was… Qi Xiao Niao

"You idiots! Have you two lost your minds or do you really want to join the army? Didn’t I tell you to fake failure beforehand?" Xiao Niao lectured Dan Dan and Qiu Qiu

Chewing a piece of toly, "But it is simply too simple Who knew I had the potential to be in the air force? All they wanted me to do was to use my eyes to follow a sed to locate it every tih it moved really fast across the 3d screen"

"Will you stop eating!?" an angry Xiao Niao howled "All you do is sit on your ass every day and eat! We already knoe are Homo Evolutis! I’m a Thinker, Qiu Qiu is a Perceptor, and Dan Dan, you’re a Diviner We’ve tested and confirmed that on our own! Now look at what you 2 have done! We’ll have to join that ridiculous Homo Evolutis Faction and be experimented on for the rest of our lives!"

Finally aware of their hed and added, in way of reconciliation, "We tried our best to fail, but our eyes naturally lued to it… We’re very sorry, Xiao Niao"

Xiao Niao slumped to his bed listlessly and uttered, "I know, I know… Even I myself almost trailed after the red dot involuntarily It was as if ere forced to follow that dot… Damn it! Betrayed by our own instinct!"

In the captain’s roo the test results It was fair to say he was appropriately surprised by them The first surprise was that other than former air force soldiers, almost none of the military passed the exaardless of gender and age, sailed through the test!

The last surprise was the presence of a sole failure a the Virus X survivors… Qi Xiao Niao

"To be honest, you’re tripped by your own careful planning"

Yao Yuan poured Xiao Niao a cup of tea and continued, "I bet you thought that most, if not all of, the Virus X survivors would fail the test, so to prevent yourself fro exposed as a Homo Evolutis, you would purposely fail to blend in with the rest, right?"
