Volume 1 Clone Army Chapter 41 Harvest
When Li Jiu and his team returned to the Night Rose Mercenary Group base, it was already very late and a few dazzling stars appeared in the distant night sky.
On the way back, Li Jiu and his team were lucky enough that the whereabouts of the transport plane were not discovered by the defenders. So after a few hours of tension, they finally returned safely...
In the Zhongzhou Province of the Alliance, on the outskirts of the Fifth District of Shoushan City, the wild grass on the barren hills was swaying in the night wind.
At the foot of the barren mountain, a patch of orange neon lights has lit up in the Night Rose Mercenary Group base.
At this time, Li Jiu was lying comfortably on the sofa in his dormitory, with his eyes closed, leisurely smoking a Sabre brand cigarette, while recalling the gains of this mission.
In this C-level mission, Li Jiu captured a total of 26 heads, and at 500 yuan per head, he earned 13,000 yuan in Alliance Coins. In addition to the extra 1,000 yuan reward for Li Jiu's first head and the 20,000 yuan reward for the mission itself, Li Jiu earned a total of 34,000 yuan in Alliance Coins in this mission.
What made Li Jiu even happier was that after the mission, he also received 2,300 merit points. 1,000 of them were rewards for the mission itself, and the other 1,300 points were because Li Jiu killed 26 enemies. According to the reward of 50 merit points per head, it was exactly 1,300 merit points.
It is worth mentioning that originally this mission was a C-level simple mission, and the reward was only 500 points of combat merit. However, after Li Jiu and his team came back, Captain Kaqi immediately reported the unexpected increase in the number of enemies in this mission to the team leader Donna. And the team leader Donna reported it to the alliance leaders. Finally, after the top leaders studied it, they decided to upgrade the mission level of Li Jiu and his team to C-level ordinary, and the combat merit points were increased from 500 to 1000. It's just a pity that the alliance did not increase their monetary rewards.
According to the alliance's rules, when the merit points reach 1,000, one can be promoted from a private to a third-class soldier, and when the merit points reach 2,000, one can be promoted to a second-class soldier. Therefore, after Li Jiu obtained 2,300 merit points, he skipped the third-class soldier and became a second-class soldier.
Li Jiu knew that in this world, as a mercenary, military rank played a very important role.
First of all, the mercenaries in this world are equivalent to office workers with special job natures. In addition to earning money by taking on missions, they also have a basic salary. The salary that can be received every month is different for different military ranks. Basically, the higher the military rank, the higher the basic salary that can be received.
According to the Alliance's regulations, the lowest-level private soldier can only get 2,000 Alliance coins a month if he does not go on a mission. If he is promoted to a third-class soldier, his basic salary will increase to 3,000 yuan a month. As for Li Jiu, after becoming a second-class soldier, he can get a basic salary of 4,000 yuan a month. Of course, as a mercenary of the Alliance, it is impossible to eat military rations for free without completing missions. Therefore, the actual income of most mercenaries is much higher than the basic salary.
Therefore, it can be said that mercenaries are definitely a high-income group in the alliance. However, they also have to take the greatest risk. If they are not careful, they may die in the mission. In that case, no matter how high the income is, it will be meaningless. But even so, there are still many citizens in the alliance who cannot resist the tempting income and choose to join large and small mercenary groups.
Secondly, the promotion of mercenary ranks is related to the status of mercenaries in the alliance. For example, a mercenary with the rank of private is just an ordinary person in the eyes of others. If she is a sergeant like Kaqi, her status is equivalent to the deputy director of a police station in the fifth district of Shoushan City. As for the major rank of Donna, the head of the regiment, it is equivalent to the deputy director of a bureau in the fifth district...
Finally, the promotion of mercenary ranks is also related to the level of missions they can receive. For example, the captain of a mercenary team must be at least a sergeant officer to be able to receive missions. If the captain's rank does not reach the level of second lieutenant, he cannot receive A-level missions and can only do C-level missions. Just like the fifth team led by Kaqi, so far, the highest they have received is only C-level high-difficulty missions, and no A-level missions. However, when Kaqi was in another team before, when she was not yet the captain, she followed the captain with a higher rank and did several A-level simple missions...
"Inhale... exhale..." Thinking of this, Li Jiu took another deep puff, sat up, and pressed the cigarette butt in his hand into the ashtray on the table in front of him.
Thinking about it carefully, Li Jiu felt that his biggest gain in this mission was not earning Alliance Coins and Merit Points, but becoming familiar with the combat mode in this world!
After this mission, Li Jiu understood that after the warriors in the alliance were equipped with the "God of War System", their combat mode was extremely similar to the game "Cross Fire" that he had played in the virtual world !
The only difference is that this is not a game, but the real world. If you are killed in the battle, you are truly sacrificed and there will be no chance of resurrection.
Of course, the Alliance might extract genes from his dead body and clone another clone warrior, and that person might look exactly like Li Jiu, but in fact, their memories and thinking are different, and that person will definitely not be the current Li Jiu. However, Li Jiu doesn't care about this, and even if he cares, he is powerless to change it...
The most important thing is that after he knew that the combat mode in this world was the same as the game he was most familiar with, he felt confident enough to survive in this world.
Because, as far as he knows, he is the only one in this world who has played the game "Cross Fire". In other words, no mercenary here is more familiar with the combat mode of this war than him. This is his unique advantage!
Thinking of this, Li Jiu couldn't help but smile and was in a good mood.
"If my ability were stronger, it would be even more perfect..." Li Jiu murmured. When he thought of his own ability level, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
As an awakened person with superpowers, this was his innate advantage over ordinary clone warriors. However, the fact that he was only a soldier-level awakened person made him somewhat unhappy.
Because in this mission, Li Jiu relied on his special ability of "soul control" to resolve a crisis for everyone before the mission began. This made him immediately realize his own special ability, which can definitely be used as a killer to achieve a surprise victory in battle!
However, it was a pity that as a soldier-level awakener, he could only use his ability once a day. If he tried to use it a second time, he would immediately pass out, which meant he would lose his ability to fight. Therefore, what Li Jiu wanted to do most was to immediately upgrade his ability level! Imagine if he could become a king-level awakener, he could use " Soul . Then, in battle, which enemy could hide from him?
