Chapter 500: Chapter 327: The Worried Onlookers !
It might invite criticism, being a respected female general and having such low intelligence requirements for her partner.
But she didn’t care about the criticism. She was more concerned about Harrison Clark being stopped at the threshold.
She had thought she didn’t have many feelings for him and could remain calm, but things turned out to be different once push came to shove.
Whenever she thought about him potentially failing the exam, and not having the chance to participate in the next-round Reassessment, the General’s mood became inexplicably anxious.
Nora Camp secretly wondered just how well Harrison Clark had learned in a month.
What if he really failed?
Should she break her promise and cancel the selection competition?
Wouldn’t that have a bad impact?
Sigh.
As things stood, she was powerless to change the outcome.
She just hoped he could succeed.
Nora Camp sighed quietly once again.
She knew her prayers didn’t have much use.
The Star’s exam was flawless, with no loopholes to exploit or any chance of passing based on luck.
It either works or it doesn’t.
At that moment, her communicator rang.
Martha Owen: “Stop pacing, you’re making me dizzy.”
Nora Camp replied irritably, “You do your thing, and don’t worry about me.”
Martha Owen snorted, “How can I not care about the selection competition my sister is organizing? What exactly are you anxious about? It’s unlike you. You don’t need to care about who wins in the end. Just send a frozen cell sample to the winner and you won’t even have to meet them in person.”
Nora Camp waved her hand, “I don’t know. My heart just doesn’t feel settled. It’s hard to describe.”
Martha Owen seemed to understand, “Could it be that Sergeant Harrison Clark you mentioned to me a few days ago? You’re really… ”
Nora Camp nodded, “It’s him. I have a very special feeling for him. I felt it was special the first time I saw him, like love at first sight from the old romantic movies.”
Times had changed, and Nora Camp was not a shy girl. She admitted her feelings without any pretense in front of her close friend.
“Oh my god!” Martha Owen gasped dramatically, “You should seek psychological intervention.”
“I’ve tried, but it didn’t work. Psychological assessment showed that I’m serious, and I’ve fallen in love with him. My subconscious wants him to be my partner.”
Martha Owen fell silent for a moment, “Alright, but you told me previously that his knowledge level situation isn’t promising. I checked too, and it’s indeed terrible.”
“Yes. Martha, do you think someone with only a 7th-grade level of knowledge a month ago could pass a high school graduation exam in just a month?”
Martha Owen silently calculated in her mind, then rattled off, “If I find some scholars at the research institute to give him targeted practice, his chances of passing would be about one in a thousand. But he rejected my help. Considering his previous performance in the assessment and his past academic achievements, his passing rate at most doesn’t exceed three in ten thousand. What an idiot for thinking so highly of himself! He won’ t even take the opportunity.”
Nora Camp became silent, unable to speak a word.
It took her a long time before she said, “You can’t blame him. One in a thousand and three in ten thousand isn’t much difference. Either way, the odds are slim. It seems I’ll have to break my promise.”
Martha Owen said anxiously, “No, that would ruin your chances for promotion!”
Nora Camp’s expression was resolute, “I have less than a year left anyway. Evenif I got promoted, itwouldn’t make much difference. If that’s how it is, then I’ll have to live with it. It’s my own decision, and I’ll take responsibility. After all, I didn’t consider it carefully enough before. I should’ve sought his opinion more.”
“If you knew this, why did you even hold the selection competition?”
Nora Camp shrugged, “I didn’t know the problem was this serious at the time.”
“It’s all his fault for being so useless. Who could forget their knowledge like that? What a waste.”
This time, Martha Owen seemed to have a natural dislike for Harrison Clark, and she didn’t know why.
They weren’t the only ones feeling anxious.
After all these days, people like Daniel Thompson finally learned the truth.
This guy had become an insignificant junior high student due to his awakened combat talents causing his knowledge level to plummet.
Harrison Clark’s special mission was to study intensively for the exams, so as not to fall at the doorstep of the selection competition.
People like Daniel Thompson and Marthus had mixed feelings about this. They both hoped he could pass but were also envious of his “adventure.”
If they could awaken their abilities like that, they wouldn’t mind sliding back to pre-school education!
At 9 o’clock in the evening, the exam was promptly over.
Various forces in the Black Bear Training Base began to move simultaneously.
Honest people like Daniel Thompson directly went to Harrison Clark’s dormitory door, waiting for him to come out.
Nora Camp texted Harrison Clark, “How did the exam go? Don’t stress too much, just give it your best.”
Daniel Thompson and the others waited for five or six minutes.
Nora Camp also waited for the same amount of time.
But Harrison Clark didn’t leave his room, nor did he reply to the message. It was puzzling.”Instructor, do you think Harrison Clark failed the exam and can’t get over it?”
Marthus said with slight concern.
Daniel Thompson shook his head, “Not to that extent.”
” So what’ s going on?”
Mitchell asked and knocked on the door, but there was no response.
Daniel Thompson hesitated whether to use his supervisor rights to temporarily take over Harrison Clark’s dorm control and break in.
If it were before, he would have taken over directly.
But now the situation has changed; Lion knew that Harrison Clark held an extraordinary position in the General’s heart, so he learned a lesson and didn’t dare to act rashly anymore.
Even the fearless Lion was now afraid.
“Daniel Thompson, you go in and check on him.”
Just as Lion hesitated whether to report to the higher-ups, Nora Camp’s order bypassed several layers and was directly given.
The children’s mother had no choice either.
Although she could directly access the surveillance footage in Harrison Clark’s dorm, this would involve violating privacy and leave traces in the military system.
She personally didn’t care about negative public opinions.
After all, she could withstand the storm of criticism resulting from her upcoming breach of contract.
But if she had this kind of privacy breach that couldn’t be hidden, it was very likely that someone would find out her motive for breaking the contract and make Harrison Clark the target of criticism.
This was a situation Nora Camp didn’t want to see, so she started to be more cautious in her actions.
“Yes, sir!”
With the command, Daniel Thompson immediately took action.
A minute later, everyone watched as Harrison Clark, wearing only boxer shorts, twisted and struggled on the Brainwave Synchronized Resonance Training Device, and fell into deep thought.
What does this mean?
Did you start the wake-up training right after the exam?
Isn’t your brain tired?
Do you really have to work this hard?
Couldn’t you talk to us about the situation first?
Don’t you know we’re worried about you!
At this moment, Nora Camp also saw the situation through Daniel Thompson’s multifunction device’s camera.
Nora Camp and Martha Owen were speechless.
They waited for a whole hour, and finally, Harrison Clark got off the device.
He felt a bit dizzy, swaying and about to head straight to the bathroom as he jumped down.
Then he suddenly realized something was wrong.
Harrison Clark looked back.
A large group of people were packed in his dormitory, with green eyes looking at him like hunting dogs wanting to gnaw on bones.
Harrison Clark immediately shrank back, covering his chest with one hand and the crotch of his boxers with the other, and only felt relieved when he touched his boxers.
He shouted angrily, “What are you guys doing!”
Daniel Thompson approached, “How did your exam go? How much are you short of passing? We’ll think of a way to see if we can remedy the situation. I have a bachelor’s degree.”
Marthus also said, “Yes, yes, yes. I was great at high school biology.”
Mitchell kept bobbing his head, “My middle school physics is strong!”
A few female recruits also came up.
One short-haired girl looked up and down at Harrison Clark’s developed pecs while saying, “Everyone else is trash, I have a master’s degree and transferred to be a Galaxy Warrior.”
Hiss…
No one expected a hidden boss in the room.
The short-haired girl was not over forty years old, but she had already graduated with a master’s degree, a true walking learning machine.
Seeing everyone’s expressions, Harrison Clark felt chest sweat sticky and cold, but also a little touched.
He scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed, “I was just worried about wasting today’s free training opportunity, so I rushed in. It’s my fault. I should have shared my exam results before training.”
After saying that, he shared his exam results.
Everyone took a look.
Hmm?
