Chapter 220 - Final Phase Incoming

6. CANDIDATE 00126 » Gustav Crimson - 470 points

------------------------------------------------

The names were arranged based on badge numbers and scores. Gustav's score was the highest among all the partic.i.p.ants.

After the partic.i.p.ants noticed his score, he became the subject of discussion once again.

'It seems she's the only one he doesn't look at with hostility... There must be a reason why he shuts everyone out,' Teemee thought while staring at them.

Ria and Glade were still in a heated argument while Gustav was complimenting Angy on her performance.

Teemee and Maltida were the only silent ones in the group currently.

"It's all thanks to you drilling me," Angy replied with a smile.

"No, it's all thanks to your ability. You don't have to give me credit for everything. Be proud of yourself this time. You truly did well," Gustav replied with a smile.

Angy stared at his face, which seemed to glow up in a very attractive format as he smiled.

A shade of red appeared on her cheeks as she turned to face the other side.

"Ah, but it truly is no..." Angy was in the process of speaking when Gradier Xanatus stood to his feet to address everyone again.

"Now that the scores have been revealed, candidates below the score of fifty have ten seconds to leave this place!" Gradier Xanatus voiced out with an authoritative tone.

A timer started counting down on the screens. Finally, some partic.i.p.ants stood up with crestfallen looks before heading towards the glowing doorways behind the spectators' area.

In about ten seconds, thirty partic.i.p.ants left through the doorways.

Right now, the partic.i.p.ants left were a little less than two hundred.

All the partic.i.p.ants that got below fifty points didn't bother waiting or trying to prove stubborn since they knew how the MBO operates.

The MBO wouldn't tolerate nonsense, so they all obeyed and left before the ten seconds timer was up.

"Now, I shall give some explanations regarding the fifth phase," Gradier Xanatus begun speaking.

"The fifth phase, which as you might have figured is the last phase. It will be situated at a secret location where partic.i.p.ants that also pa.s.sed the fourth phase from cities all around the world will be gathered..." Gradier Xanatus paused for a bit to let it sink in after saying this.

Chatter! Chatter! Chatter!

Joyous looks could be seen on the faces of the partic.i.p.ants after hearing that.

-"If we manage to pa.s.s, we'll be enlisted,"

-"That is going to be the last step required,"

Gradier Xanatus started speaking again after a few seconds.

"The partic.i.p.ants that pa.s.sed the special test six months back are also undergoing the last phase..."

-"What? We also have to partic.i.p.ate?"

-"How come we didn't know about this before?"

-"How can they place us in the same category as these losers,"

The youngsters in white uniforms didn't like this piece of information.

After pa.s.sing the special test, they thought they wouldn't have to go through any other test, but it looks like their speculation was wrong.

"Only the special cla.s.s candidates will be exempted from undergoing the final phase," Gradier Xanatus added.

Everyone had already expected this, so they weren't surprised.

Some of them started wondering if Gustav was also going to partic.i.p.ate since he pa.s.sed the special cla.s.s difficulty.

"Now, the final phase is different from what you've been undergoing so far. But, it is the real deal because you're going to be facing true danger," Gradier Xanatus said with a serious tone.

"It won't be an understatement to say that there is the danger of death if you undertake this test," He added.

Chatter! Chatter! Chatter!

The place became noisy once again after the partic.i.p.ants heard that.

The partic.i.p.ants were starting to understand why the previous tests were so difficult.

It would seem the MBO was trying to eliminate the weaker ones who probably wouldn't handle the final phase.

Since the test was so dangerous, it would mean the weaker ones were bound to get hurt and most likely cause a death toll.

Partic.i.p.ants who made it this far would be strong enough to get through the phase with little or no deaths.

"Now, mind you, only a hundred partic.i.p.ants from each city across the world will be enlisted in the end, so the points you have gathered today will be a big help for you," Gradier Xanatus explained.

"Not to worry, even if you have low points, you only need to do what is required in the next phase to increase your points and get enough to be among the top hundred partic.i.p.ants in your city," These words made some of them calm their minds.

Everyone was either tense or intrigued about the final phase or both.

The normal partic.i.p.ants realized that since candidates that pa.s.sed the special test would be partic.i.p.ating in the final phase, not only was the compet.i.tion going to get tougher, but the numbers would be higher.

This meant there will be over two hundred partic.i.p.ants, and more than half of that would be unable to make it through.

This made them feel even more tensed since the candidates that pa.s.sed the special test were stronger than normal.

"You have a twenty-four hours break to do whatever you want and also think it over if you truly want to partic.i.p.ate in the final test phase. More information on the test will be given at the gathering tomorrow before you're transported to the secret location,"

"You're free to visit anywhere on floor 602, and the next five floors above floor 602, beyond that, is restricted. Rooms and other facilities needed are available for every partic.i.p.ant. Fighting or getting physical amongst each other will result in disqualification,"

After saying this, Gradier Xanatus and the other four supervisors disappeared with a flash of bright light.

When the supervisors disappeared, the partic.i.p.ants stood up and started leaving through the glowing doorways behind the spectators' seats.

They were transported back to floor 602.

Immediately they arrived on floor 602, Gustav excused himself from the group and started heading towards the room area.

'It's time... I only need to channel it a little bit more to get to the fourth step,' Gustav said internally as he moved across the corridor.
