326: Desk Center

“Fifteen million at the start!? Is this equipment broken!?”

“No way, buddy? How long has it been since the game started? Am I dreaming?”

“Fifteen million, it really is fifteen million!”

Seeing the data displayed on the tablet, all the General Examiners present were utterly shocked.

Not far away, several teams lining up to enter the restricted area heard the discussion and also began to whisper.

“Why are they so excited? What fifteen million?”

“These people... they should be the GTI General Examiners!”

“Holy cow! Could it be that the team currently undergoing assessment found fifteen million worth of supplies in the restricted area!?”

“If they can bring that out, then passing the assessment should be a sure thing.”

“Wait... this match just started, didn't it? And they've already found fifteen million worth of supplies!?”

“How is that possible! They must be talking about the total supplies found throughout the assessment!”

On the platform, several teams in line were discussing animatedly.

They were mostly regulars at the Aerospace Base, and they had seen many instances of teams coming here for assessments in the restricted area before.

However, this was the first time they had seen such a grand setup for an assessment, with more than a dozen General Examiners, and General Examiners from different countries at that. This situation was unprecedented for them.

And the shocked expressions of these General Examiners at this moment, as well as their increasingly loud discussions, made the surrounding passersby teams even more surprised.

“Keep your voices down, everyone. Really, there's no need to be so surprised, is there?”

General Examiner George reminded them.

According to regulations, GTI's professional assessments should be conducted in secret, especially the data generated during the assessment. Besides the examinee team and GTI high-level personnel including the General Examiners, no third party should know the specific data.

However, the General Examiners' discussions just now almost leaked some important information to the passersby.

But, it was also fortunate that the data Xiao Yun's team produced was truly exaggerated.

George had just observed the nearby teams and it seemed they all heard about the 15 million worth of supplies, but almost no one believed that this could be brought out in a single match. Instead, they thought it was the total supplies brought out so far in the assessment.

Therefore, they would not believe that this 15 million was the total value of supplies Xiao Yun's team found in the restricted area less than half a minute after the game started!

“Where was Xiao Yun's team's starting position in this match?”

After everyone quieted down a bit, He Yan also stepped forward and asked.

Upon learning of the initial gains of Xiao Yun's team in this match, He Yan was both excited and shocked.

To find over ten million worth of supplies at the start, there must only be one such item in the entire restricted area!

And to confirm this conjecture, he also had to know Xiao Yun's spawn point for this round.

“Their spawn location for this match... is behind the Central Control Building. Strange, can you find anything good at that starting point?”

“The Central Control Building? Then it's not surprising...”

He Yan nodded silently, and at the same time, his heart grew even more excited. He quickly took a deep breath, calming his accelerated heartbeat.

If they revived at the Central Control Building, then the supplies Xiao Yun's team found were most likely that thing.

The king among the big red items, the one true god among restricted area supplies, the africa heart!

The reason He Yan could be so sure was because Dragon Country's last record of bringing out the africa heart from the restricted area was also from the same location.

That was about seven or eight years ago, when a top 10 ranked GTI team found the africa heart in the restricted area. And because the process of that match was so thrilling, the captain of their team later wrote down their experience in a memoir. And because it contained a true record of bringing out the africa heart from the restricted area, that book became very popular in Dragon Country at the time, with annual sales surpassing the historical records of all books.

And according to the records in their memoir, their team also found that africa heart on the podium in the conference room on the first floor, after landing behind the Central Control Building.

They couldn't explain why this africa heart appeared there, so they could only attribute it all to luck.

And because of this, many people questioned the authenticity of this story. Some suspected that they made up a random location to cover up the true extraction point, while others believed it was merely artistic embellishment in literature, written that way only to make the plot exciting.

He Yan himself had once doubted the same questions, but unlike ordinary people, he later became a high-ranking member of Dragon Country GTI, thus gaining the opportunity to communicate with that TOP10 team.

After talking with them, He Yan could be ninety percent sure that their story was not fabricated.

That africa heart was indeed on the podium on the first floor of the Central Control Building at that time.

And now, today.

As a General Examiner, He Yan saw the abnormally high starting data of Xiao Yun's team, coupled with their location, and immediately determined their extraction point.

“I think I know what they found.”

He Yan looked at the path of Xiao Yun's three-person team on the map and said calmly.

“What is it? Do you know what spawns at this location?”

Hearing this, General Examiner George, who was beside him, raised an eyebrow and asked with some surprise.

However.

Everyone's shock was not over yet.

After a brief few seconds of calm, the data on the panel suddenly changed again!

In just twenty short seconds, the value of the supplies Xiao Yun's team found in this match surged by over two million again!

And adding the supplies brought out from the previous match, their team's total material value had now reached 27 million, and it looked like it would soon break 30 million!

Seeing this scene, all the General Examiners were instantly dumbfounded!

......

“Current Location: Aerospace Base - Central Control Building.”

“Current Drop Rate: Top Secret”

“Current Game End Time: 29 minutes 28 seconds”

“Hint: Please complete extraction before time runs out!”

Meanwhile, inside the restricted area.

On the second floor of the Central Control Building, Xiao Yun watched with wide eyes as Lu Xueqing opened the large safe and, with a click, pulled out a main battle tank model, his heart instantly filled with shock.

“I didn't expect you to still get drops after getting the Heart!”
