Chapter 926
Almost everyone in the audience held their breath, looking up towards the stage. Five or six judges sat in a row on the judging
panel, each in their own designated seat.
At that moment, an artificial intelligence robot slowly glided onto the stage. It was cute and adorable, standing at about 1.2
meters tall with a round head and a pleasant voice.
It sounded like a teenage boy going through puberty with a hint of innocence mixed with some maic charm.
"Hello everyone, | am your good friend Niamh. Please listen to the first question,” it said.
“When was the International Air Transport Association established?"
Many aviation enthusiasts in attendance couldn''t help but think that this was such an easy question to answer. But this was a
buzzer roundpetition - just because you knew didn''t mean you could buzz first and answer correctly.
So... the robot''s round head turned towards the first contestant who pressed their buzzer button. "Please answer."
Brogan stood up and confidently replied. "1905."
Niamh nodded its head approvingly, "Correct! Please listen to question two."
"On November 10th 1988, what was officially unveiled as the world''s first stealth military aircraft?"
Brian thought to himself that his people should be able to get this one right? But once again it was Brogan who buzzed in!
He watched as Brogan answered. "F-117."
Frustrated!
Howe so many idiots couldn''t beat Brogan?
Several questions went by where SouthStar Airlines pilots were always buzzing in before anyone else - not just Brogan but also
other pilots from different airlines too!
Whenever Niamh asked questions they were all like lightning fast reflexes answering correctly every time without fail; they might
as well have been clones of Niamh itself!
The audience watching on were stunned while even some of judges looked shocked too! Except for Franklin...
If they can''t even win at something as simple as this buzzer game, then what kind of pilot are they?
Brian shook with anger; how could there be such stupid things out there?!
Why is it that no matter how hard he tries he still gets left behind by Franklin''s people?
Meanwhile back at Brian Aviation Company HQ several pilots almost broke down into tears...
It wasn''t because their reaction times weren''t fast enough; sometimes they hadn''t even finished processing what had been asked
before someone else had already hit their button and answered correctly!
They only just started thinking about what answers might be possible when someone else had already given theirs!
Answering questions is torture.
Not only were they all struggling, but the other airlinepetitors were no better off.
They were all dumbfounded, and even when they managed to answer a question, it was only worth one point.
Compared to the five from SouthStar Airlines, their scores were nothing more than garbage.
But... it seemed like nobody was scoring at all.
As time went on, SouthStar Airlines'' scores continued to rise higher and higher while the other airlines remained stagnant or
barely improved at all.
The rankings on the big screen hardly changed with SouthStar Airlines in first ce by a wide margin followed by NorthWind
Airlines in second and Brian''spany in third with only five points. The number "five" was like a p in Brian''s face making him
turn pale with anger as if he was about to explode any moment now.
With each passing question came greater difficulty and fiercerpetition for answering them. However, Brogan Mullins''s team
remained calm without showing any signs of panic or nervousness unlike Brian who looked ready to burst into mes just sitting
there looking indifferent like Franklin beside him.
As they approached the final question which was worth ten points instead of one like before, Brian became increasingly anxious
screaming inside his head for someone to answer it already before it''s toote!
Just as Robot Niamh finished reading out loud the final question that everyone had been waiting for so anxiously; one pilot from
Brian''spany finally managed to hit the button first!
Brian breathed a sigh of relief seeing that someone from his team had finally answered but then suddenly realized that
everything around him had gone quiet except for this pilot who stood there lookingpletely clueless not knowing how to
respond despite having won this opportunity fair and square.
Everyone else looked confused too wondering what could be wrong? Why wasn''t he answering? Could he really not know how?
Brogan Mullins looked over at the foreign pilot, whom he recognized as Michel, the ace pilot of Brian Corporation. He was young
and talented with a tall and typical Evodroupolian-Aettosan appearance.
However...
Why did he answer without knowing the question?
Michel didn''t even know what came over him when he snatched the chance to answer as soon as Niamh finished speaking.
When he stood up, his mind went nk. He didn''t even hear clearly what Niamh said.
All that was in his mind was that he couldn''t lose this only chance to turn things around. He just couldn''t lose it!N?velDrama.Org owns this text.
So... his hand moved faster than his brain and snatched the opportunity.
But... he had no idea how to answer it.
He looked around bewilderedly at the audience and then at other contestants who werepeting with him on stage.
Niamh began counting down, "Please answer immediately. Five seconds left. Five, four, three, two... one!"
When it finally reached one second left on its countdown timer, there was an uproar in the audience.
Michel felt a burning sensation on his face like firecrackers exploding all over it. He answered incorrectly, lost another point due
to his mistake. Now they had only four points remaining!
Brian almost fainted from anger and embarrassment; everyone seemed to beughing at him or mocking him with their eyes
fixed upon him alone.
Niamh repeated its previous question again,"Please grab your chance."
Without suspense or hesitation this time Brogan Mullins grabbed hold of this opportunity once again.
Standing up confidently with a powerful voice answering urately without any hesitation whatsoever made SouthStar Airlines
gain ten more points which brought them up to sixty-two points total score making everyone cheer loudly for them!
The host held a microphone excitedly announcing, "Congrattions! The following pilots have sessfully advanced into finals."
"SouthStar Airlines, NorthWind Airlines... AA airlines, Wilderness Airlines..."
There were six airlinepanies entering into finals which consisted of thirty-two pilots out of hundreds whopeted earlier
proving how intensepetition can get in these kinds of events!
“After thepetition, please actively prepare for the final and physical fitness test. See you on Sunday,” the host said before
ending the event.
As everyone was getting ready to leave, one of the judges, Brian, marched over to Michel with a look of anger on his face.
Michel looked ashamed as he faced him.
"Sir..." he began to say before he interrupted him and pped him hard across the face with a loud "smack!" that echoed
throughout the venue.
Everyone stopped in their tracks and turned around in shock at what they had just witnessed. Brian was seething with rage and
could barely control his emotions as he red at Michel.
"You''re useless! A fool!” he yelled at him while he held his swollen cheek from where he had hit him. "If you get another garbage
score like this again, then get out!"
Michel felt humiliated as all of their
fellowpetitors watched on
helplessly while their boss berat
and insulted hi dinpeblic red a
Huye Blow his dignity and
self-respect but he couldn''t even
express his anger because he was
too afraid to do so; all he could do
was hang his head low and quickly
leave hoping no one would see him.

Franklin checked time realizing it''s already evening when Jasper called him saying some single men and women frompany
are already heading towards Golden Restaurant so let''s go there too!
Franklin started calling Sylvia asking where she currently was. She repliedzily, "I''m taking doctors and nurses along with me
towards Golden Restaurant right now."
Franklin chuckled softly, "Why didn''t you wait for me? I''m still at hospital.”
“Hurry up then! Don''t bete." Sylvia yawned feeling sleepy due long car ride ahead. "See you soon.”
Not long after hanging up phone call, Sylvia''s car pulled up outside Golden Restaurant''s entrance gate waiting for them eagerly

Dozens of young men and women flooded into Golden Restaurant''s first floor lobby, where they were greeted by an excited
manager. "Hospital staff, please follow me. This is our area," he said.
As he led them to their designated space, a perfectly synchronized sound of footsteps caught everyone''s attention. It was as if a
specially trained army was marching towards them - two rows of pilots in uniform walking with purposeful strides entered the
room in perfect formation.
