Chapter 155 The Test of Becoming a Hero

O'Connor waited, standing a long way from the entrance of Shinra Corporation. He didn't dare to get too close, because there were already more than a hundred people queuing at the gate of Shinra Company. O'Connor's body was extremely thin, and he might be squeezed to the ground if he was not careful.

Since Shinra sent out the recruitment information, tens of thousands of resumes have been sent to Shinra's mailbox. Lord Luo Fei took a lot of time to select the first batch of 100 applicants, and O'Connor was one of them.

O'Connor had been waiting at the gate of Shinra Company since five o'clock in the morning, and he was the only one at that time. But as time went by, more and more people came to interview. O'Connor didn't know when he was squeezed into the position of the principle door. And as the time for interviews at nine o'clock approached, most people were looking forward to being the first to successfully join the Punisher and become a true hero.

Although it was morning, the sun was still very poisonous. O'Connor had only stood there since five o'clock. Not only were his feet weak, but his whole body was drenched in sweat. He heard a cheer from the crowd, and the door of Shinra Company finally opened. O'Connor also wanted to rush into this magical company immediately like everyone else, but it was a pity that his legs were a little out of control.

When O'Connor stepped into the gate of Shinra Company, a fat man with a big belly was already explaining the interview process to these candidates.

O'Connor wiped the sweat off his face, and easily recognized that the guide was the famous mind reader Matt. He is the personnel manager of Shinra Corporation, and he is also the master of illusion among the punishers.

"Okay, the above are the basic rules of the interview. I hope everyone strictly abides by them, otherwise they will all be disqualified." O'Connor only had time to hear these words in the end, and saw Matt turn and leave.

"I didn't hear anything! Is this the end?" O'Connor felt that the world was about to collapse, and he finally got such an interview opportunity, and he didn't even understand the interview rules clearly.

O'Connor was a little embarrassed to ask the people around him about the rules and content of the interview, but he only got sneers and ridicule, and no one was willing to tell him. After all, they are all competitors, and who wants to help their competitors? It's better to have one less person, and your chances of success will increase by one point.

O'Connor followed in the back of the crowd in great dejection. He still had a glimmer of hope that as long as he wasn't the first to conduct the interview, he should have a chance to deduce some rules from observation, which was the only way he could think of.

Soon, all the applicants were brought into a huge playground. O'Connor couldn't help but let out an exclamation, because it was completely unimaginable from the outside that the space inside Shinra Company was so huge. As soon as he opened his mouth, O'Connor regretted it. Because everyone else looked at him gloatingly, but O'Connor found that no one made a sound except himself.

"Could it be that the first rule of this interview is to keep quiet?" O'Connor thought with a little chagrin.

But after waiting for a while, O'Connor didn't hear the sound of his disqualification, and his heartbeat calmed down a little. However, he also warned himself that he must never make such a fuss like before. Without knowing the interview rules, O'Connor felt it was better to be cautious.

Soon, the first test began, and it turned out to be long-distance running, which O'Connor was least good at. After just one lap, O'Connor felt his legs go numb. People around him threw him away one after another, and at the same time cast contempt, mockery and sympathy at him, but no one stopped. Three laps later, O'Connor was less shaving ice and more like walking.

He was already weak and breathed like a bellows, and the salty smell in his throat made him feel like he would vomit blood and die if he persisted. But he was supported by an unwillingness to give up in his heart, and it took almost all his strength to finally complete the long-distance running task of ten laps.

It's just that when he came to the finish line, what greeted him was not applause, but endless ridicule.

"If you are a bit ashamed, you should quit automatically. Do you know how much time you have wasted our time? A waste like you can never be a hero." A very mean-looking girl said mercilessly to O'Connor .

O'Connor didn't have the strength to refute, he just seized the time to recover his strength, and secretly hoped that the next project would not be so difficult. But obviously, O'Connor definitely thought too much.

The second item is swimming, an artificial lake with a large area, as long as you swim to the opposite bank, you will complete the task.

"Here I need to explain that after five minutes, a large number of piranhas will be put into the lake. You can choose to swim to the other side in these five minutes. There is a canoe hanging on the flagpole. You can also try Get the canoe down in five minutes. Finally, you have one last option, and that is to turn around and walk away."

After Matt said this to everyone, the countdown began. Those who are confident in their swimming skills immediately jumped into the lake and swam towards the opposite bank. A few people tried to climb the flagpole to lower the canoe, but the flagpole was too high and slippery, and these conscripts were messing with each other, and it was impossible to succeed.

After a short stalemate, no one could climb the flagpole at all, so everyone chose to swim to the opposite bank as soon as possible.

O'Connor didn't jump into the water, nor was he involved in the fight for the flagpole. Because he rationally found that with his physical fitness, it was impossible to swim to the other side in five minutes, and he also competed with these people for the flagpole. His only chance was to try again after everyone else had given up their canoes, and now was the time.

O'Connor walked to the side of the flagpole and pulled out the lower pin, and then the flagpole fell down in the astonishment of everyone's eyes, along with the canoe hanging on it.

O'Connor didn't care about the surprised expressions of these people, and quickly pushed the canoe into the water, climbed into the canoe, and rowed towards the opposite bank.

But not far away, O'Connor saw the sharp-looking girl calling for help in panic. It turned out that the piranhas had been released, and the lake around the girl turned red. O'Connor hesitated for only a second, then hustled his canoe across.

"Take my hand!" Ignoring the piranhas in the water, O'Connor stretched out his hand to the girl, as if it was not the girl who had taunted him mercilessly, but just an innocent passerby.

When the girl was rescued into the canoe, she was bitten by several piranhas, and her whole body was stained red with blood. And O'Connor was also bitten by the piranha because he put his hand into the water. A piece of flesh the size of a finger was torn off, and the wound was bleeding continuously.

O'Connor was about to treat the girl's wound, but the girl suddenly stood up and pushed O'Connor forcefully into the lake.

The piranhas continued to bite O'Connor's thin body, and the severe pain and blood loss made O'Connor's consciousness gradually blurred.

At the last moment, he seemed to hear someone asking in his ear: "Do you regret it?"
