Chapter 60 The Origin of the Monthly Exam

The setting sun has completely fallen below the horizon, and only a few burning clouds are still floating in the horizon.

"Before this, I'll give you some insight into what laws are." Song Junlang pondered for a moment, pondered the language, and said: "The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, flowers fade, flowers bloom, birth, old age, sickness and death... These natural laws can be called laws. On the earth, we are already familiar with these laws, so we take it for granted. When the pioneers set foot on the world of Norma, they unexpectedly discovered that when the power is strong to a certain extent, they can forcibly change these laws and laws. Of course, changing laws is extremely difficult, and even a heavy price that cannot be afforded. At present, the only one who knows that the law of success is the only senior I mentioned who created the law of immortality for colonists all over the world."

"So what are the flaws of the Immortal Law?" Xiao Lin asked.

"Didn't you already know the defect? ​​True immortality is impossible. This law only gives colonists the opportunity to resurrection. In the world of Norma, affected by the law, any colonist branded with the academy will only deduct 20 years of life per death."

"Wait!" Xiao Lin quickly stopped Minister Song's words and said strangely: "Didn't it mean that death deducts 10 years of life? Why did it become 20 years?"

Song Junlang was helpless: "Wait for me to finish my words... What I am talking about is that in the Norma world, although it is impossible to achieve true immortality, this law is enough to give us great advantages when colonizing other worlds and fighting natives... Until later everyone discovered that the law did not only take effect in the Norma world, on the earth, at the Dawn Academy, and even when we conduct simulation exercises, that is, in the so-called examination, the law of deducting lifespan is still valid! For everyone, even the predecessors who created this law back then, this is an unexpected result."

After a moment of silence, Xiao Lin tried hard to digest these amazing information, such as the Law, which were very distant things for him, and asked: "So what about erasing the mark? Isn't it okay to temporarily erase the mark during the simulated war?"

Minister Song smiled bitterly: "It's not that simple. When a freshman enters a physical examination, he will actually be automatically engraved with a soul mark. Anyone with this mark will have the law to take effect. However, a person only has one chance to have this soul mark in his life. If it is erased, it will never be possible to be re-engraved. Therefore, those who have been driven back to Earth, even if they may come back in the future, will only have one chance to have life."

Xiao Lin still wondered: "Then why do you still need to take the exam?"

Song Junlang said: "When I first discovered this amazing result, Shuguang Academy immediately terminated all mock exams in order to protect students who had not graduated. However, more than ten years later, the college's losses in the new world became increasingly greater. Even the limited water of life was gradually unable to keep up with the speed of everyone's life loss, especially at that time, Shuguang Academy was in a war with the orcs, and many people died!"

"die?"

"Yes, it's real death! This is ridiculous. After possessing the law of resurrection, the Dawn Academy paid even greater casualties for it!" Song Junlang shook his head and sighed: "After the post-war death and death statistics with the orcs, it was found that more than 70% of the dead were students who entered the school after the mock exam was terminated. As for the reason, I think you should be able to guess."

Xiao Lin smiled bitterly: "Is there a gap between new recruits and veterans?"

"Yes, the most casualties in the war are always the recruits. Everyone knows this common sense, but no one is willing to mention it before that. Those who have been training in the academy for several years seem to have just walked out of the ivory tower. They are just students, and they are not even soldiers! Even if they have the chance to be resurrected, they have no combat experience, and they will quickly squander their lifespan and eventually die in the hands of the orcs."

Speaking of this, the expression on Minister Song's face was slightly heavy: "Since that war, the Shuguang Academy officially restored the simulation exercise system, commonly known as the monthly exam. There is no difference between dying in a simulated war and dying in a new world itself. What's more, the Shuguang Academy is located in an independent space, and the influence of the law is not as strong as that in the Norma World. Death here only deducts 10 years of health, while dying in the Norma World requires 20 years of life!"

The cool breeze hit, and the last trace of the sunset was submerged in the darkness. When night fell, two large and small moons rose into the night sky.

After listening to the origin of the mooncai, Xiao Lin was in a very complicated mood. When he suddenly came back, the night was already dark. He smiled bitterly. At this time, the dormitory building must be locked.

"Study the night with me!" Song Junlang got up, patted the soil on his body, and smiled and said, "I can't help you in tomorrow's exam. After all, as I said just now, it's better to die once or twice now than to die in the new world in the future."

"I understand." Xiao Lin also sighed.

"But I can give you a few advice." Minister Song turned his head, thought for a while, and said, "This exam has reduced the difficulty in order to take care of freshmen. As far as I know, most of the enemies you are facing will not use any skills, but your own strength is still too low after all, and the difficulty will increase as a result! The most important thing is that many of you have no experience, and pig teammates are sometimes more terrifying than god opponents."

"Remember that the core of the mission is reconnaissance rather than fighting! You must avoid head-on conflicts. Even if the enemy's strength is greatly reduced, it is not something you can beat now. This is the key to saving your life."

"This mission is assessed in comprehensive strength, wisdom and teamwork. If the tactics are appropriate, you don't even need to fight at all. I think students will arrange this difficulty map for the first monthly exam for freshmen for this reason. That map must be carefully viewed and recorded. In fact, if you can post the map, the difficulty this time has been reduced by at least half."

"Didn't you say you haven't passed this simulation battle?" Xiao Lin couldn't help but mutter.

Song Junlang touched his nose and said angrily: "Well, I haven't passed the exam, but this is a classic American battle back then. When I visited the Judgment Academy, the people over there were nagging the battle in my ears for almost a week. It's hard to forget it."

"Thank you!" Xiao Lin was slightly moved. It was enough for him to say this.

Song Junlang waved his hand and muttered as he walked: "If you die casually, where can you find such an obedient experimental candidate in the future?"

...

He refused Minister Song's meal. At night, Xiao Lin was ready to go to bed very early, but tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. Minister Song's words brought him too much shock and thoughts. Lying in bed, he thought a lot, about himself, about the new world, about Gu Xiaoyue, and about the first mock monthly exam.

That night, he suffered from insomnia again.

The exam started at 8 o'clock in the morning. Xiao Lin, who had been insomnia for most of the night, got up at 7 o'clock. He still firmly refused all kinds of strange breakfasts prepared by Minister Song. After returning to the dormitory to take away his dagger and novice staff, he came to the public classroom of Class 7 early.

There were already 10 or 20 people in the classroom, and some were facing big dark circles. It seemed that Xiao Lin was not the only one who had insomnia that day. Under the pressure of death, deducting the lifespan value, everyone seemed very nervous. Everyone was communicating around, trying to calm their emotions by speaking.

Xiao Lin silently went to the corner, put his weapons on the table, took out the distributed information map, and looked carefully. The monthly examination system stipulated that these information could not be brought into the actual combat environment, which meant that he had to use his brain to quickly remember the rough topographic map of the canyon.

He was actually doing this work last night, and now he is just revisiting it a few times to deepen his impression and pass the time by the way.
