Volume 3: Rise of the God of War Chapter 526 Find Donna
"Ah?" The bearded man asked in surprise, "Then the captain is saying that we just give up like that?"
"Yes, let's give up that restaurant." The short and fat captain nodded.
"Captain, it's a good decision for you to make..." The bearded man nodded and said, "To be honest, the people in that restaurant are not someone we can afford to offend."
"However, although we gave up that restaurant, next, I want you to take people to buy another place for me." The short and fat leader added.
"Ah?! Still want to go?" the bearded man was shocked.
This time, he was really badly beaten by that blue-blooded young man, and he still feels a lingering fear even now.
"What, you don't want to go?" The short and fat captain's face darkened and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
"No, no, Captain, I'll go..." The bearded man hurriedly explained, "It's just... Captain, isn't there someone with that kind of strength in the next place?"
"Humph! I haven't been there either, how would I know?" The short and fat captain shouted coldly: "Go and try it yourself and you will know. It's still the same rule, courtesy first, then force. Offer them a high enough price first, and if they insist on not selling, you can think of other ways yourself..."
"I, I understand..." the bearded man replied with a bitter face.
Speaking of which, he also knew that the blue-blooded young man he met this time actually had a pretty good temper. He just played a trick on them and didn't make things difficult for them.
But if he met someone with such strength again, he wouldn't dare to expect the other party to be so "friendly"...
Therefore, to be honest, he never wanted to take this kind of risk again... But he had no choice but to obey orders as a mercenary under someone else's command. Otherwise, the result would be the same: miserable...
…
On the other hand, after parting with Kaqi, Li Jiu quickly rushed back to Shoushan City, the base of the Night Rose Mercenary Group.
And after a short rest, he immediately went to see Donna.
Now, he has the rank of major.
Therefore, the first thing to do was to explain to Donna his idea of creating a mercenary group.
After all, although he is now on par with Donna in military rank, he is still a mercenary under Donna. Therefore, if he wants to create a mercenary group, he must first obtain Donna's consent.
Of course, it would be possible to directly leave Donna's mercenary group, but Li Jiu has no such plans now.
Another reason is that in order to create a mercenary group, one must first find a sufficiently powerful force to act as a guarantor.
This is because, although the alliance allows civilian forces to establish mercenary groups to support the war, it will also inevitably impose some restrictions on each mercenary group to avoid causing internal strife in the alliance.
Only with a guarantee can we gain the trust of the coalition government.
…
"Captain, you are now a lieutenant colonel?" After arriving at Donna's office, Li Jiu was immediately surprised to find that Donna's rank had been promoted to a lieutenant colonel.
"Yes, I was just promoted." Donna was still wearing Night Rose's outfit, leaning back in the chair behind her desk, holding a glass of red wine, and said with a smile. It seemed that she was in a very good mood because of the promotion of her military rank. "Speaking of which, it was also thanks to you guys who completed several good tasks in succession during this period that I was able to be promoted to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel so quickly."
"Now, our mercenary group can finally apply to become a two-star mercenary group." Donna said with a little excitement.
"A two-star mercenary group..." Li Jiu pondered, with a hint of joy on his face.
The higher the level of the mercenary group, the more missions they can accept.
In this way, all mercenaries in the mercenary group will be able to develop better.
Of course, in this development process, there will also be a higher rate of casualties...
In addition, as the level of the mercenary group increases, its scale will naturally expand again.
For example, Night Rose is currently still a one-star mercenary group and can only have 100 formal combat mercenaries.
But once it is upgraded to a two-star mercenary group, it can be immediately expanded to 300 combat mercenaries, or 30 teams.
In this way, the mercenary group can earn more money by completing more tasks.
At the same time, Donna herself can also draw a certain proportion of merit points in more tasks to speed up the promotion of her own military rank!
This is actually one of the reasons why Li Jiu created his own mercenary group!
Once he had his own mercenary group, he no longer had to earn merit points by completing missions personally.
Even if he does nothing, his mercenaries can earn him a lot of merit points and improve his military rank by going on missions!
Of course, according to Li Jiu’s current thinking, even if he created a mercenary group, he would not give up on carrying out the mission.
After all, I have so many advantages that others don't have. Although I can't say that the probability of completing the task is 100%, it is at least 80 to 90 percent... If I don't make good use of my advantages and earn merit points as soon as possible, then I will be wasting my advantages in vain.
"By the way, Li Jiu, did you meet Kaqi when you went to Xingtian City this time?" Just as Li Jiu was thinking, Donna suddenly asked with a smile.
"Yes, I saw it." Li Jiu smiled slightly and nodded.
"Is she okay? I haven't been able to contact her recently." Donna asked with concern. Like Li Jiu, she had not been able to contact Kaqi for some time, so she was also very worried about her closest subordinate.
"Thank you for your concern, Commander. She is doing well and has been promoted to the rank of captain." Li Jiu said with a smile.
"You must have been very surprised at the time, right?" Donna smiled and said, "Actually, this is nothing strange. After all, the mercenaries in the Fox Hunter Women's Special Operations Battalion are the real elites in the alliance. If Kaqi follows them, her rank will naturally rise quickly."
"Also, I know you must be worried after Kaqi left." Donna continued, "Actually, I am worried too. But to be honest, Kaqi is safer with the Fox Hunter than here."
"Oh? Why is that?" Li Jiu asked curiously.
"Because the people from the Fox Hunters and Flying Tigers special operations battalions usually only carry out secret missions within the alliance, and rarely go to the battlefield outside the alliance." Donna smiled mysteriously and said, "Although they are also mercenaries, they are completely different from us. Their main task is not to deal with the defenders, but to secretly quell the instability within the alliance... You should know what I'm talking about, right?"
"So that's how it is..." Li Jiu said suddenly.
It turns out that the role of these two ace special operations battalions is similar to suppressing heretical forces in the alliance.
"Okay, let's not talk about Kaqi anymore. Tell me why you came to see me today." Donna took a sip of the red wine in her hand. "You didn't come here just to show off that you have been promoted to the rank of major, did you?"
