After hearing what Kalio had said, a small commotion broke out among the soldiers. After all, they were not idiots. The word "survive" in Callio's words told them that they were not going to a sightseeing spot, but to a battlefield where one almost died.

In Rankin's squad, a soldier named Brun raised his hand.

"What's wrong with you, soldier?" Callio asked lazily, looking at him.

Brun saluted and said, "Reporting, sir. I've seen the information about the new barracks. Isn't the graduation exam a simulated combat between the new recruits, Lao Li? "

"Looks like you did a lot of homework, soldier." Callio's old face broke into a rare smile.

He stood straight and shouted, "Thank you, sir, I..."

He had only said half of the sentence when Callio suddenly disappeared from his sight. Then Brun felt the pressure in his stomach and looked down to see the image of Calo's shoulder hitting his stomach.

Soon after, a sharp pain came. As if hit by an armored chariot at full speed, Brun was sent flying with a scream before crashing heavily onto the drill grounds ten meters away. When he fell to the ground, Brun was foaming at the mouth and twitching. A large portion of the Nightmare Tactics Armor on his abdomen disintegrated soundlessly. No one knew how Caario had used his blunt force to cause the sharp objects to tear the Tactics Armor apart.

"Trash!" You are soldiers, soldiers. If the warriors do not go to the battlefield, what else can you do? " Two of the teachers, who had their hands behind their backs, trotted over to Brun. They picked him up, carried him to the entrance of the new barracks, and threw him out like a dead fish.

Pointing in Brun's direction, Kalio said, "Now, stand up immediately if you are afraid of dying. It's still too late for me to leave now. Otherwise, if someone escapes from the examination three days later, I'll personally kill him! "

The chief instructor's face revealed a sinister smile.

However, no one stood out from the remaining 20 people. "Very good," he said. "Only if you're not afraid of death can you be a good soldier."

He paused before continuing, "The location of this assessment is a military base called Cossack which was abandoned a hundred kilometers west of Asgard. When Asgard was first built, we found it in the process of heading west. Outside of the buildings on the ground, Cossacks had an underground base that stretched eight floors down. In the next thirty years, we only sent scouts to the fifth floor. "

Looking at the recruits, Callio said slowly, "The Cossack military base is occupied by countless of strange creatures. As far as we know, there are living corpses, scythes, human face moths, avenging goddesses, and so on. Aside from the living corpses, the insects occupied most of the area. Your task is to find the experimental diary in the biochemical laboratory on the fifth floor and bring it out. There are no restrictions on this mission. As long as any of your teams bring out the diary, we will complete the mission! "

He heard that there were so many monsters hidden at the examination site, and there were even more bugs hidden. Even regular soldiers would frown, let alone recruits like them. Insect monsters are known to be a headache for mutants.

During the turbulent times, all living things evolved rapidly. Amongst the many creatures, the rate at which the insects evolved was the fastest. As these strange insects grew larger, they became more and more difficult to deal with. Therefore, to the soldiers in the new army camp, they would rather face an army of living corpses than encounter those strange insects in the underground base.

Seeing that the recruit's face had turned green, he nodded his head in satisfaction. He then asked the instructor to distribute the three tactical boards to the respective team leaders. On the board were the basic information about the military base in Cossack City, including the general topography of the area from one to five floors, as well as the information about the monsters and their distribution. Finally, he said, "The latest information is from three years ago. So you can only use this as a reference, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing, a person without the ability to adapt is not a qualified soldier, you have to learn how to deal with sudden situations, this assessment will be your trial ground. Good luck, gentlemen. "

With that, he announced his dissolution. There would be no special training scheduled for the next three days. Within these three days, the new recruits were given the time to prepare the plan of action and prepare the combat supplies.

In a corner of the drill ground, four people were seated in a circle. The tactical board assigned by the teachers was placed in the middle of the four of them. Zero used the holographic projection function, causing the 3D model of the base and the monsters' information to appear one by one in front of everyone's eyes.

The military base of the Cossacks occupied an area of nearly four square kilometers. The buildings on the ground consisted of a training ground, a material warehouse, a ground cover, a sentry post, a satellite tower, a barracks, a strategic command post, and even an abandoned airstrip. As for the underground base, the first layer was an armor layer, built with the premise of defending against nuclear attacks. On the day of the catastrophe, the region had been lucky enough not to run into a meteorite, so the armor layer had no way of testing its defensive capabilities.

The next two floors were the living areas of the people in the underground base. There were accommodation areas, activity centers, medical centers, and even a neighborhood park. The beginning of the third floor was filled with experiment sites, facilities, etc. The Heroic Spirit Hall had once sent out people to investigate the military base. Although the military base had become the nest of all kinds of monsters, after so many years of hard work, the Heroic Spirit Hall had already grasped the situation on the first to fifth floor of the underground base.

On the fifth floor of the base, there was an office area of as much as 500 square meters. It was the place where the scouts had found a diary of the experiments that had been conducted at the underground base. However, they were unable to bring it back. After all, only a few warriors who had broken through to the fifth floor were still alive. In the office area, they had encountered attacks from elite monsters.

In the end, only two people managed to escape. One of them was none other than their instructor, Kalio.

Since most of the military base had been damaged, and most of it had been turned into a habitable nest by the monsters, the Heroic Spirit Hall had given up on investigating the base. Without rewards, the Heroic Spirit Hall would not invest much in this area.

Next were the various monsters that occupied the base. Firstly, it was the most common living corpses. Until now, it was still impossible to know the origin of these strange creatures. Through anatomy and research alone, we know that the living corpse is a virus which has evolved from some kind of bacteria to infect the corpse, causing the cell of the corpse to become active, thus possessing the ability to move, but without the intelligence of a monster.

It could be said that this was a cursed monster. As one of the most common mutated zombies in the world, the living zombies had a huge body size and adaptability. Monsters that did not know pain or fear could survive in almost any environment. Among the living corpses, the evolved elites were the butcher and the Ripper. These two monsters were highly dangerous. Ordinary soldiers would not even have a chance to survive if they encountered these two monsters.

The next few monsters were all insect type monsters. The Scythe Worm were close relatives of the Saber Mantis, and their appearance was that of a mantis that had been magnified hundreds of times. His body was a brilliant red, but his wings were degenerated, leaving only a thin layer of hard film covering his body. The scythe bugs had eight pairs of complex numbers. With their Glimmer Vision, they were practically invincible in this underground base. Its four scythe like forelimbs could easily tear through the armor of the chariot.

The elite version that the Scythe Bug evolved into was Green Tornado, which was a type of bug that was two to three times smaller than the Scythe Bug. It was evolved from a scythe worm, and its body was green. Its bug armor became tougher, and even if it were to use a large caliber handgun to fire at close range, the bullet would not be able to break through the shell of the bug. However, what the green tornado was proud of was not its defensive capabilities but the high speed flapping of its four wings. It could raise its speed to the speed of sound in three seconds, and with the help of the four smaller and sharper scythes, it could easily kill any prey.

Human-faced moths were insects that liked to live in the dark and damp. They were about the size of infants. The head looks like the face of an adult because of its lines, and that's where their names come from. The human face moth's eyesight has degenerated, and after two evolutions, they no longer have an organ like the eye. Human-faced moths have six beautiful butterfly-like wings, but the fluff in these wings secretes a neurotoxin powdery substance.

Once inhaled, the prey would be paralyzed for 1 minute, but not for 24 hours. Thus, during this period, the prey can clearly feel the process of the human face moth eating its own flesh and blood. These bugs would even lay eggs in the prey's body. This way, the prey will live for a longer period of time. However, when the eggs hatch, the prey's body becomes food for the larva. At that time, the pain would be even greater.

Among the humanoid moths, there were some individuals that underwent mutation, thus embarking on a completely different evolution from their own species. These special individuals are called buggies, and their wings degenerate, but their bodies grow humanoid limbs. The head of the bugger no longer retains any trace of a human face, but looks more like a worm. The nails of this creature were 20 centimeters long. Not only could these sharp nails tear apart ordinary protective clothing, but they also had secret slots in it. It could pressurize the poison within the human body, tearing the skin of its prey while injecting it with poison.

Usually, wherever the half-worm-man appeared, there would be the presence of the Moth King. This was because these elite monsters were often the personal guards of the king of their race.

The final goddess of vengeance was not something beautiful. On the contrary, these bodies were full of sarcomas. They had an enormous eye, and the monsters that slept for years were ugly beyond belief. The Goddess of Vengeance was like a giant bug. The only difference between the two was that it had very low attack power. But it was very vengeful. If you hurt it, the bug would throw its sarcoma at you, and you would discover that these were not pieces of meat, but biological bombs.

Looking at the information provided by the monsters, the faces of the few of them turned ugly. Anyone could tell that it wouldn't be an easy task to obtain the so-called experimental diaries from the nest of these monsters.
