The Last Commander of the Red Alert

Chapter 285: The Eternal Theme, Evolution!
"Commander, I just passed the second stage of the test," a voice suddenly appeared in Su Chen's mind. It was Su Yi's voice.
Su Chen was surprised. It had been several days since Su Yi went through the test, and he had just passed the second stage. Was the second stage really that difficult?
"I know what the first stage was about, but what's the second stage?" Su Chen asked curiously.
After Su Yi finished the first test, he told him about it. Su Chen didn't expect to encounter a fake version of himself in the test, and he even had to kill his own subordinates. It was ridiculous and made him laugh until he had abs.
As a Soldier of himself, there was no possibility of betrayal. How could he kill such a loyal Soldier? It seemed that the illusion didn't really understand his situation and was just making things up.
The second stage was much more difficult than the first one. It relied on one's own strength, and Su Yi had to fight against ten enemies with increasing levels of strength. The first enemy was of similar strength to Su Yi, and the tenth enemy was twice as strong as him!
In this situation, Su Yi had to kill all the enemies to pass the second stage. These enemies were not real, but rather biological creations with artificially given strength, like disposable products, according to the artificial intelligence inside the test.
Su Chen never thought that eighth-level powerhouses could be mass-produced. If he obtained this technology, it would be easy to wipe out Mutant Beasts. He thought of the synthetic monster technology he obtained earlier, which seemed to have come from the ruins. No wonder the Human Emperor wanted to enter the ruins; there were so many good things inside. As long as humans obtained some of them, they could defeat the Mutant Beasts and become the masters of the Earth again.
Fortunately, Su Yi had plenty of rest time after defeating each enemy, giving him time to fully recover before continuing the next battle. The reason why it took so long was that Su Yi was severely injured when he fought the ninth enemy and wasted a lot of time recovering.
Even now, Su Yi's body was in tatters, lying in a nutrient tank filled with green liquid, recovering.
The strength of the last enemy was too powerful, but Su Yi triggered his second evolution at the critical moment and defeated him.
Su Chen opened Su Yi's evolution template and looked at it. His evolution count had increased from one to two, but there was no change in his potential or evolution direction.
After his second evolution, Su Yi's strength had been significantly enhanced, second only to Ju Ling in terms of power.
Just as he was thinking this, Guangtou Qiang's voice also appeared: "Commander, I passed the second stage of the test."
Unlike Su Yi, Guangtou Qiang had relied solely on his body to pass the second stage of the test. The enemies were strong, but not strong enough to break his body. Guangtou Qiang did not trigger a second evolution, which was a bit of a pity.
As for the monarchs who went in, neither Su Yi nor Guangtou Qiang knew their situation. Each of them seemed to have been separated and had not seen each other after entering.
"What's the next stage?" Su Yi asked uncertainly.
"It seems to be a quiz," Su Yi replied.
Su Chen was taken aback. A quiz? What was this?
Out of curiosity, he borrowed Su Yi's eyes and looked at the scene before him.
It was a room that looked like a classroom, and only Su Yi was sitting there. Suddenly, writing appeared on the blackboard in front of him.
Species Evolution!
Then a synthesized mechanical voice appeared, "Challenger, you have completed the second evolution. In terms of evolution, you have the most number of times among this batch of challengers. I want to hear your understanding of evolution."
Su Yi's expression did not change. He did not expect to have to answer a question. Was this the third challenge?
Through Su Yi's eyes, Su Chen also saw the question and was speechless.
An artificial intelligence actually asked such a profound question. What was the point?
Could it be that the selected master had to not only have strength but also intelligence?
Su Yi did not hesitate and answered directly, "Evolution is the increase of strength!"
Su Yi deeply understood this. It was only by triggering his second evolution that he was able to survive from the hands of the final enemy. Otherwise, he would have been dead by now.
"Well said. Regardless of any species, the first and most obvious growth after evolution is in strength. If strength does not increase, then even if it is evolution, it is still a failed evolution. But..."
Su Chen knew that the twist was coming. Whenever the word "but" appeared, there would be a major turning point.
"There is also evolution that occurs in order to survive. In this case, the increase in strength is of no help to evolution. In such a situation, do challengers still think that evolution is simply an increase in strength?"
Su Yi's expression remained unchanged. "I will only answer once."
"A very individualistic challenger. Sometimes extreme ideas are quite good. The third challenge is over. Now you can wait for the other challengers to finish the test, and then select one of you to become the new master here."
Suddenly, Su Yi spoke up. "Why decide on a new master so quickly? Wouldn't it be better to let more challengers come in for the test?"
This was Su Chen's question. He felt that the artificial intelligence was in too much of a rush. In theory, a large number of people should enter here, and the best master should be selected from among them. This seemed a bit too casual.
"This is the old master's command, and I cannot change it," said the artificial intelligence calmly.
This reason was good, and Su Chen could not refute it. It's just that he faintly felt that there was something strange about this ancient ruin.
On Guangtou Qiang's side, the answer was similar to Su Yi's. After all, they were all Su Chen's subordinates. However, no one knew the situation of the other monarchs.
The attack by the Oceanic Mutant Beasts failed, but it provided humans with a lot of meat and Energy Crystals. This made Wind Tide angry, and he directly bombed several mountains.
The other eighth-level Mutant Beasts got the news and withdrew from the four major battle lines. Humans did not pursue them, and it was not yet time for a major war.
In this battle, humans learned that they had a new monarch, a female monarch. This was the first time.
Ling Monarch, this was what people called Ju Ling.
Ju Ling was disdainful of this. She did not care about the title of monarch. She would rather stand by Commander's side and do her job well.
Back at the base, Ju Ling's first priority was to find Tanya. "I heard that Commander made you his personal maid?"
