Terra Nova Online: Rise of The Strongest Player

Chapter 8: Initial Evaluation (2)

Initial Evaluation(2)

( Leo Skyshards POV )

[ Reflex Test Score – 95/100, S tier ]

Leo looked at his score and felt satisfied with himself.

He had not dropped more than 3 balls in the 60 second duration of the reflex test and had thoroughly enjoyed himself in the process.

His score placed him within the top3 ranks of the arc ship and at the very top of the ranks within Sector E, however, he was not aware about this yet.

He had taken about three times longer than Luke to assimilate with his head-gear and the process had been extremely painful, however, once the headache faded away and he could move around, he felt sharp and in full command of his muscles.

There was no pain in a single joint, there was no stiffness, no elasticity problem in his muscles as he felt almost reborn.

He felt capable of stretching to the utmost limit to catch a ball without having to worry about a potential injury and it was a liberating experience to feel what his body was truly capable of.

[ Good job clearing the first test player! Please prepare for the second round now-

In the second round, we will read through your memories and evaluate your personality traits.

There is no score for this round, but it will help us determine the best compatible class for you ]

“Wait, you want to read my memories? I’m not comfortable with that-” Leo protested, however, his protest was in vain.

He was no longer on Earth and there was no longer a government to enforce human rights.

If the aliens wished to read his brain, there was nothing Leo could do to stop them as within the next minute the game master Gaia extracted all of Leo’s memories stored within his conscious brain.

It wasn’t the full story of his life, but rather flashes of peak moments that he remembered forever.

It was the highs and lows of his life that he was the most proud of or the most embarrassed about as regardless of his emotion towards the event, Gaia stored and processed it all.

After just a minute, Gaia was done with her evaluation as she was ready to proceed to round three.

[ I have gathered all the information I needed to determine your future path player, thankyou for your cooperation.

We can now progress to round three, where we shall test your cognitive ability.

I shall put you within a room full of objects and you shall have 5 minutes to find 100 knives hidden in the room

The test will start in 5 seconds, goodluck! ]

Leo mentally prepared himself for the next test as after just five seconds his surroundings shifted from white nothingness to a storage room full of objects littered around.

Just a quick scan of the room and Leo could pick out five knives in an instant as they were blatantly obvious.

However, once the initial momentum faded, he started to struggle to find more knives with his discovery speed slowing down significantly.

He raffled the room and moved around objects in the hope of finding a new knife hidden from plain sight.

He worked strategically, starting from one corner of the room and progressing at a steady rate that would give him just enough time to scan the entire room.

He discovered all the knives that he could and did not linger or second guess himself to maybe look for more as he progressed through the room.

Once the five minutes were up he had no idea as to how many knives he had located, however, in his head it felt like he had found many.

[ Cognitive Test Score – 101 knives found.

Test Result – S grade ]

Leo was surprised to see the total being 101 when the system told him that there were only 100 knives to find?

In reality there were over 160 knives in the room, however, one needed only 100 to get a perfect score.

The key to clearing this stage was mentality and focus and Leo performed expertly.

[ Commencing fourth and final round of the initial evaluation which is practical combat.

Please engage in a fist-fight with all your might against the system dummy ]

The system suddenly threw Leo from a room full of objects back to the infinite white space with a black dummy opponent.

The dummy had a good height of 6 feet and was by all means a faceless mechanical robot who had undertaken a weird stance that was unlike conventional boxing.

Leo did not feel like fighting it, instinctively he also felt a little afraid to punch metal since he knew that punching metal would hurt his own bones.

However, he also wanted to get a good score in this test and not chicken out, so in the end he swallowed his reservations and engaged in combat, boxing style, against the dummy.

Thankfully the dummy did not punch back, but it only looked to parry or block Leo’s attacks as Leo wildly attacked anything and everything that the dummy left exposed without worrying about whether or not it inflicted any real damage.

Leo had not been trained in proper martial arts.

Coming from the streets he did know how to throw a punch, however, street fights were all about guts and fighting despite taking a punch while this was a whole other ball game.

Nonetheless he tried his best and put all his strength behind every punch that he could throw as the test ended after about a minute of him engaging in combat, just as he was starting to run out of breath.

[ Combat Test Score – 72/100, B rank ]

Leo got a respectable B rank in his combat score, however, it felt sour after scoring two S ranked evaluations back to back.

Nonetheless, there was nothing he could do to improve his score now as he had given all three tests his best shot.
