Savior of the everyday world of crossover anime

As a legitimate organization, although the Hero Association is only a private institution, its superior status and special positioning attract numerous sponsors, so it is naturally not short of money.

Upon entering the association, Ryougi Shiki saw a large area specifically designated for hero testing, which was already bustling with noise due to the large number of people.

It's clear that many people have signed up for the hero test, but the vast majority are probably just there for the fun of it, and in the end, very few will actually pass the test.

After all, being a hero is not child's play; it involves real, life-or-death battles with monsters. Therefore, even the lowest-ranking C-class hero is assessed at a level that is almost harsh for ordinary people.

Upon entering the testing area, Ryougi Shiki encountered no obstacles as she had already registered and was able to enter smoothly.

Instead of rushing to take the test herself, Ryougi Shiki first observed the skill level of the other applicants from a distance, as well as the specific content of the test.

The specific testing process is very simple, and it is generally divided into physical fitness test and written test. The physical fitness test is conducted first, mainly to judge whether the participants are qualified, and it accounts for a very large proportion. The written test is conducted last, and although it does not account for as much of the score as the physical fitness test, it still accounts for more than 40%.

What Ryougi Shiki is currently observing is the physical fitness test.

"They don't seem to be very strong."

After watching for a while, Ryougi Shiki muttered to herself.

As mentioned earlier, although many people applied to become professional heroes in this recruitment drive by the Hero Association, very few were actually able to become professional heroes in the end.

More than 95% of the people in this arena probably don't even meet the minimum standard for a C-level hero, and will inevitably be eliminated.

Otherwise, even if someone with such strength manages to pass the test and become a hero, they will most likely die at the hands of a monster in the end.

If nothing unexpected happens, and Ryougi Shiki doesn't show up for this hero recruitment, then the Z City branch of the Hero Association might not be able to recruit even a single qualified hero. Even if they're lucky, they might only be able to recruit a few C-rank heroes at most.

A Class C hero is someone who might face danger even in a one-on-one fight against a Wolf-level monster. Such strength is far superior to Ryougi Shiki, who defeated Vaccine Man and wiped out the elite forces of the House of Evolution. Even a random special forces member from Takahashi Yu's containment facility would be much stronger.

Therefore, what Ryougi Shiki said earlier was not unfounded. In her opinion, the strength of the group of people at the test site was really not that great.

Even without her Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, she could easily kill a large number of people with one hand.

"boring."

Having figured out the specific level of this test, Ryougi Shiki had no intention of standing by and joined the queue to wait for the test to begin.

Because the male and female testing areas are separated in this huge testing area, there were not many people in the female testing area where Ryougi Shiki was located, unlike the crowded male testing area. It took about ten minutes for Ryougi Shiki to be turned.

To be honest, although physical limitations have held Ryougi Shiki back many times, that was only compared to top-tier monsters like Demon and Dragon level.

Even though Ryougi Shiki's physical limitations once put her at a disadvantage in the battle against a Dragon-level monster, her physical abilities alone would be enough to describe her as powerful among ordinary people.

Putting everything else aside, even if it were just a physical fitness test, Ryougi Shiki could easily pass with a perfect score without using the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception.

However, considering that Takahashi Yu's order to Ryougi Shiki was to make her an S-class hero, Ryougi Shiki felt that she should demonstrate more strength to gain more attention.

Thinking of this, Ryougi Shiki looked at the staff member in charge of recording the test results and said, "I would like to apply for a special test."

Since the Hero Association recruits worldwide, it is inevitable that some extraordinary people and events will occur, such as superpowered individuals and martial arts masters.

A simple physical fitness test is not enough to demonstrate the strength of these people, so in order to deal with this situation, the Hero Association specially established a special testing program.

That is, to conduct targeted tests based on the tester's area of ​​expertise, so as to better reflect the tester's ability and avoid misjudgment.

At this time, Ryougi Shiki submitted her application for this test.

"Special test?"

Upon hearing Ryougi Shiki's words, the staff member recording the test results spoke with some confusion.

As the association's staff responsible for testing, they were certainly familiar with the special testing process, and over the years, there had been quite a few applicants for the special testing.

However, it is somewhat surprising that Ryougi Shiki is also applying for this test, since Ryougi Shiki's appearance is quite deceptive.

"What's your specialty?"

According to regulations, applicants for special tests must excel in a particular area; otherwise, they can only undergo normal physical fitness tests.

Chapter 116: Special Test, Shocked Testers

What special skills do you have?

According to the Hero Association's regulations, to apply for a special test, one must be exceptionally outstanding in a certain field. Although the Hero Association's testers don't say it that way right now, it can be roughly understood that way.

"kendo."

Ryougi Shiki then spoke.

"kendo?"

The Hero Association's testers glanced at Ryougi Shiki.

I never expected that someone so young would be a swordsman.

Arriving at the special testing site with Ryougi Shiki, they saw a large instrument about two meters tall placed on one side of the site.

"As long as you can leave a mark on it with a weapon within the specified time, you'll pass."

The tester then began to explain.

The instrument in front of us is a special instrument used for slashing tests. It is made of special materials and its defensive power is comparable to that of an ordinary Tiger-level monster. It is said to have been specially designed by Metal Knight, an S-class hero of the Hero Association, and distributed to the examination sites of various branches of the Hero Association to assist in the assessment.

Without the strength of a C-rank hero, even wielding a weapon, one cannot leave a mark on it in a short time.

Next to the instruments were all sorts of weapons, including katana, katana, and samurai swords, all the kinds of weapons commonly used by swordsmen.

On the one hand, it is to prevent examiners from cheating with the weapons they carry, so the examination weapons provided by the association must be used. On the other hand, it is because Ryougi Shiki's hands are empty, and she obviously does not look like she is carrying a weapon.

Since this is a test of slashing and chopping, we need a weapon, right?

Thinking this, the testers saw Ryougi Shiki walk to the shelf where the weapons were placed, then pick up a wooden sword and walk towards the testing equipment.

Wooden knife?

Upon seeing this, the testers immediately doubted whether they had seen it wrong.

It's important to know that the test weapons provided by the Hero Association were all truly lethal; the wooden swords and the like were purely decorative.

After all, the purpose of the test was to recruit, not to make things difficult. Obviously, no one had ever thought that someone would not use a real weapon but instead take a wooden sword that was used for decoration.

Using a wooden sword to cut metal testing equipment and then leaving marks on it? Isn't that just making things difficult for someone?

Thinking this, several testers wanted to offer a reminder.

"Wait, this isn't the weapon we're testing—"

Swish! ! !

Before she finished speaking, Ryougi Shiki raised the wooden sword in her hand and slashed it across the instrument in front of her in an instant. At the same time, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception in her eyes opened and closed in an instant.

Everyone around felt a sudden chill, and a sense of fear of death surged into their hearts.

The next second, a scratch appeared on the surface of the instrument in front of Ryougi Shiki, and then it collapsed with a crash.

Boom!

The crowd looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the collapsed instrument had been cut in half, with a smooth and clean cut, as if it had undergone the most precise division.

Only then did Ryougi Shiki put the wooden sword back on the shelf, and then turn to look at everyone.

"What were you talking about just now?"

"No, no, nothing."

"The test?"

"Pass, no, it's a perfect score!"

Regardless of the astonishing scene before them, or the fear of death they felt when Ryougi Shiki drew her sword earlier, the personnel in charge of the test dared not disobey Ryougi Shiki's wishes. Despite their shock, they immediately allowed Ryougi Shiki to pass the test with a perfect score.

Although there are still steps such as agile testing and reaction testing, they are no longer needed.

What a joke! This is a swordsmanship master who can cut through metal testing instruments with a wooden sword. Although she looks young and is a woman, her unparalleled mastery of swordsmanship is enough to exempt her from the test.

The testers just wanted to get Ryougi Shiki to the rest area as soon as possible to wait for the afternoon's written test, and then quickly report the news.

......

Ten minutes later, in a room at the Z City Hero Association branch.

"Supervisor, there are special circumstances."

A staff member from the association knocked on the door, then opened it to report to the head of the Z City Hero Association branch.

"Oh? Could it be that someone we're particularly interested in is participating in the hero assessment?"

Upon hearing his subordinate's report, the head of the Z City Association branch immediately beamed with joy.

A few days ago, the appearance of an unidentified monster on the outskirts of Z City and the defeat of two S-class heroes, Metal Bat and Tank Top Master, caused a huge uproar within the Hero Association.

Although the Hero Association's top brass classified this intelligence as confidential due to their strong management capabilities, circulating it only among a few senior executives, many of the association's top brass began to feel uneasy as Tanktop Master and Metal Bat awakened and described their encounter on the outskirts of Z City.

After all, according to intelligence, the two powerful monsters of unknown origin aim to destroy the Hero Association.

What is the quickest way to destroy the Hero Association? It's not to crush all the heroes on whom the Hero Association depends for survival, but to carry out a large-scale massacre of the association's high-ranking members.

Despite being ordinary people, they manage a large number of heroes. If they are killed, the numerous low-level heroes will naturally fall into disarray due to lack of management.

At the same time, without the command and maintenance of these high-level leaders, high-end combat forces such as S-class heroes will soon fall apart and fight independently.

At that time, the massive Hero Association will naturally collapse on its own.

Previous monsters might not have thought of this level of intelligence, but according to the descriptions of Tanktop Master and Metal Bat, the monsters that have appeared this time are obviously highly intelligent. They not only use traps to ambush, but also cooperate with each other.

As a result, many high-ranking members of the association responsible for managing important departments have been staying at home and hiding their whereabouts. Only a small number of high-ranking members and S-class heroes know their exact location, for fear of being attacked.

However, what troubles the Hero Association the most is the issue of sponsors. As the Hero Association's main financial backers, they are naturally also potential targets for monster attacks.

The association's original intention was for these sponsors to keep a low profile and wait for them to find and eliminate the enemy as soon as possible. However, when these sponsors heard that they might be attacked, they all started making a fuss and began to apply for protection from S-class heroes.

And it's not just about applying for one or two; the minimum requirement is to apply for at least three S-class heroes.

The reason is that even two S-class heroes combined failed, so at least three S-class heroes would be needed to protect them.

Goodness, many of the association's top officials had a look of utter disbelief on their faces.

Assigning three S-tier heroes to one person—is this treating S-tier heroes like cabbages?

Not to mention that the Hero Association only has less than twenty S-class heroes in total, even if there were enough, it's uncertain whether those S-class heroes would be willing to accept the arrangement.

If they were to encounter someone with a bad temper, these sponsors might die at the hands of their own people before they even face an attack.
