Then let the witch offer her loyalty

Chen Moxin's team, number 7, topped the leaderboard with a total score of 13 points.

According to Chen Moxin's original estimate, their team's result should be to secure a top-five finish and strive for a top-three finish.

According to the scoring rules in the test, the first place gets 10 points, the second place gets 8 points, the third place gets 6 points, the fourth to tenth place gets 5 points, the eleventh to twentieth place gets 3 points, the twenty-first to thirty-sixth place gets 1 point, and the bottom thirty-sixth place gets 0 points.

就算雷烈和亚历山大都完成预定目标，拿到13分，其他队伍理论上可能出现8+6+1，8+3+3，6+5+3...诸如此类的高分成绩组合。

But it seems that this has not happened.

继总积分13分的第7小队之后，第二名的小队积分组合为8+3+1，12分。

The third team's score combination is 5+3+3, totaling 11 points.

Later on, the team's points combinations became more diverse.

If Team 7 hadn't followed Chen Moxin's instructions and each member had run with their own weights, even if Lei Lie won the championship and the other two barely passed, their total score would only be 10 points, directly eliminating them from the top three.

Now, Chen Moxin has made good use of the rules to formulate tactics, which has increased her total score by 3 points.

Don't underestimate these 3 points.

Physical fitness is just one of the tests.

Just because Lei Lie was the leader in this test doesn't mean that someone will be there to carry the load in every subsequent test.

Even earning just one extra point on a previous test can reduce the pressure on later tests.

When the final statistics are tallied, it's very likely that, just like in the college entrance exam, a difference of 1 point can make all the difference.

Earning 3 more points this time means that Team 7 has more room for error in the future.

"Holy crap! Chen Moxin, you're amazing!" Alexander exclaimed excitedly, putting his arm around Chen Moxin's shoulder.

Although Alexander's extra 3 points were earned through a last-minute burst of energy, he knew very well that ultimately it was Chen Moxin's credit.

Without Chen Moxin's clever planning, he wouldn't even have had a chance to explode.

Chen Moxin smiled slightly, put her hand on Alexander's shoulder, and then gestured for Lei Lie to come over and put his hand on his shoulder as well.

"It's not just my achievement; we're a team. This good result wouldn't have been possible without the hard work of both of you."

"Chen Moxin, you're too modest. Without your guidance, with my bottom-tier level, I'd be lucky to even pass, let alone get any points."

"Hehe, I don't understand those complicated things. Anyway, I'll run however you tell me to."

After hearing this, Chen Moxin pulled the two closer together, her friendly smile carrying a hint of deeper meaning: "Since you both agree with me, there is something I really want to discuss with you."

“We are a small team, but also a collective. Any collective, regardless of size, needs a leader or decision-maker.”

“I don’t believe in democracy. In my view, people in a group can have different opinions, but there can only be one decision-maker.”

"No matter how differing the opinions may be, once the decision-maker makes a decision, the group must move toward that goal. Only such a group has cohesion and fighting power."

At this point, Chen Moxin looked at Alexander and then at Lei Lie: "I won't beat around the bush, I'll just get straight to the point."

"I stepped forward to take command this time, partly to earn more points for the team, and partly to seek your approval."

"In the subsequent training and tests, we will definitely encounter all sorts of situations, and at that time we will need someone to make decisions and control the direction of the entire team."

"Since I haven't let you down this time, I'd like to take the lead in this decision-making process. What do you think?"

In any communication between men, the most important thing is sincerity and speaking frankly.

For men, the situation where six people in a dormitory create eight different group chats is something to be ashamed of.

Chen Moxin is very sincere now.

He openly expressed his views and frankly stated that he wanted to be the "leader" of the team, without hiding anything.

If it were when they first entered the camp, Alexander and Reilly would definitely not have thought much of it.

Who are you?

Why is he so confident that he wants to be the boss without saying a word?

But the situation is different now; Chen Moxin is speaking with her "achievements" in mind.

He has already demonstrated in previous tests that he has the ability to maximize the benefits for the team.

In addition, his undisguised sincerity left a very good impression on Alexander and Reilly.

Moreover, Chen Moxin, who is well-versed in psychology, also played a subtle trick.

Why was he the "lower-class horse" chosen to do the dirty and hard work in the previous test?

Alexander's physical abilities are similar to his, so the two could easily switch places.

In fact, Chen Moxin was using an emotional effect.

If Lei Lie's 10 points were a foregone conclusion, Alexander's 3 points were the icing on the cake.

Whether Chen Moxin can pass the test will determine the survival of the entire team.

Chen Moxin took the initiative to assume the most responsible role and completed the test at the last minute just before the passing mark, which gives people the impression of "turning the tide" and makes people feel that he saved the team at the last minute.

It's almost impossible to refuse a sincere, capable person who has saved a team when they ask to be a leader.

The other two members of the 7th squad had no objection to Chen Moxin's suggestion.

Alexander's answer was even more surprising: "Decision-makers? If you ask me, let's not talk about that nonsense. Let's just become sworn brothers!"

He had the heroic spirit of an ancient knight-errant, and said enthusiastically, "If I remember correctly, Chen Moxin, you are 21 years old, I am 20 years old, Lei Lie is the same age as me, but a few months younger than me."

"That makes things easier. From now on, we'll all call you Brother Chen. You're the eldest, I'm the second eldest, and Lei Lie is the third eldest!"

"Uh..." Chen Moxin choked for a moment.

It's true that I want to be the boss.

But how did it become the "boss"...?

After all that, the results seemed excessively good.

"Brother Chen, from now on, I, Ai, will obey your every command without any disloyalty!"

"Me too!"

"I swear to stand with Brother Chen through thick and thin, to be his lifelong companion, and to follow him through life and death!"

"Me too!"

"If anyone violates this statement, he will be killed by both heaven and man!"

"Me too!"

Not far away, Li Lei watched as Alexander and Lei Lie clasped their hands and bowed to Chen Moxin, rolled his eyes and muttered, "Crazy."

...

The six-week physical training program has ended, and the special training process has officially entered the next stage.

At this moment, Li Lei was in the conference room of the special training camp, explaining various basic concepts of psionic energy to the trainees.

“Psionic energy comes in many forms. Based on the types we know so far, we usually divide psionic energy into three categories: natural, heterogeneous, and magical.”

“Natural psionic energy is usually related to elemental manipulation. Psionicists can control or even create natural elements, such as liquids, gases, plasmas, magnetic fields, etc., and make them work for them.”

"Nature-type psionicists generally have low physical strength, but their abilities are extremely destructive, and their power is enhanced by the corresponding natural environment. It is no exaggeration to say that they are humanoid weapons of mass destruction."

"The alien-type psionic energy is mostly a mutation and enhancement at the physical level, such as controlling cell differentiation to quickly heal injuries, growing combat organs with unique abilities, and body-wide beastification, etc."

"They far surpass ordinary people in terms of cellular activity, static and dynamic vision, speed and strength. They are close-combat specialized psionicists. Their abilities may seem simple, but they should not be underestimated."

"The power of the magic system is the most complex. It can change the basic laws of reality to a certain extent, and thus accomplish things that are beyond the common sense of science."

"These trickster-type psionicists may not have the large-scale destructive power of nature-type psionicists, nor the strong physical attributes of heterogenous psionicists, but their abilities are unpredictable and mysterious, just like magicians, making them equally troublesome."

The students listened attentively, taking notes continuously. Chen Moxin was also scribbling in her notebook, seemingly lost in thought.

According to the classification theory introduced by Li Lei, the spiritual energy he obtained from Liu Lan undoubtedly belongs to the "trickery" category.

These abilities are quite simple at the conceptual level. For example, phase shift is simply the ability to move objects of similar value through space.

However, depending on the user's perspective, these seemingly simple abilities can often produce many unexpected results.

Li Lei's analogy of a magician is very apt.

The principles behind magic tricks are actually quite simple.

However, with a skillful hand, what is presented is dazzling splendor.

In comparison, the "Xenomorphs" are much more brutal, consisting of thicker health bars, faster speed, and greater strength.

It is said that some heterogenous psychics undergo genetic mutations, resulting in a beast-like appearance...

So "catgirls" really do exist in this world.

As for the natural system...

Master?

Chen Moxin felt that this was roughly the analogy.

It's hard to say which of the three major types of psionic energy is more powerful, because their abilities have different focuses and each has its own area of ​​advantage.

Nature-based psionicists can unleash fire and ice, bombarding and blasting, but they might not be able to defeat those alien species whose health bars are thicker than city walls.

A hybrid psychic, limited to hand-to-hand combat and close-quarters fighting, may not necessarily be able to outmaneuver a master of unpredictable trickery.

Those with bizarre and unpredictable abilities who can distort the laws of reality and use trickery-based psychics may also perish in the torrent of natural elements.

The relative strength of the three types of psychics depends entirely on how well they apply their abilities in actual combat.

After explaining the basic concepts of psychic powers, Li Lei continued, "As everyone knows, witch hunters are the only group in our country that can legally possess psychic powers, and they are specifically responsible for fighting against illegal psychics who do not obey regulations."

"Many people think that witch hunters are always bombarded with psionic energy when they go on missions, just like those popcorn blockbusters from abroad... This is actually a big misunderstanding."

"Witch hunters and witches are connected through a spiritual contract. Every time a hunter releases spiritual energy, it will accumulate and erode the witch's body. Once the erode exceeds the critical point, the witch will erupt with madness."

"Therefore, even for witch hunters who legally possess psychic powers, psychic powers are not released at will. They can only be used as a trump card to turn the tide when there is no other choice."

"Most of the time, witch hunters should still use conventional methods to carry out missions. This is also the next stage of special training."

"Over the next month, you will need to learn and master various modern weapons and special equipment."

"Now, everyone assemble at the firing range."

Chapter 65 Federal Iaijutsu - The Art of Emptying Magazines

The first round of training this afternoon was very ordinary, just the usual shooting drills.

Those who can stand here are undoubtedly special training students; they've been playing with guns since they were little.

Even externally recruited trainees have received relevant training when they joined the Bureau and are familiar with firearms.

If there's anything special about the shooting training at the Hunter Training Camp, it's the wide variety of firearms available.

Leaving aside the various mainstream police and military firearms, there are also many special firearms with unique shapes and effects.

For example, there is a new concept pistol that is called a "gun" but the "bullets" inside are actually miniature missiles guided by high-precision chips, which have a built-in "lock" effect when fired.

Once you've pre-locked onto the enemy, all you have to do is pull the trigger. No matter which way the muzzle is pointing, the bullet will automatically calculate its path, avoid obstacles, and reach the target.

This special firearm can kill even the most clumsy person with headshots, so researchers have given it a very endearing nickname – "Clumsy Person's Treasure".

Of course, this kind of firearm is not seen outside.

Firstly, the technology is too advanced and is still in the conceptual research stage, not yet in actual mass production.

On the other hand, these bullets are simply too expensive to produce, and non-state-level forces simply cannot afford them.

After explaining the theoretical knowledge about various firearms, Li Lei began to organize everyone for practical training.

What followed was quite lively, with trainees taking their positions and gunshots ringing out one after another.

Chen Moxin was wearing earmuffs and was concentrating on masturbating.

Suddenly, he heard a series of rapid gunshots coming from the next shooting position, a dense barrage like popping beans.

Chen Moxin turned her head and saw Alexander holding a pistol, pulling the trigger at an extremely fast speed, firing all 19 bullets in a very short time.

Chen Moxin hadn't paid any attention until he accidentally glanced at the score on the other person's digital screen. He was stunned for a moment, took off his earmuff, and said, "Wow, Zhongguo, that's impressive! 50-meter moving target, all 19 bullets, all 10 rings?!"

Anyone who has handled a handgun knows that this thing is only suitable for close-range shooting at 5 to 20 meters.

Even those with professional training can generally only guarantee shooting accuracy within 30 meters.
