Chapter 372
Tianhe Mercenary Group, Huo Ye and Chai Ming are both deputy leaders of the mercenary group, and Ning Qingyun is the leader.
Knowing that Ning Qingyun was going to the Jindu Safety Zone to look for someone, the Minister of the Army, Yan Cheng, entrusted Ning Qingyun to bring a letter to Wen Qingming, as well as some supplies. Those supplies were packed in five large metal boxes. No one knew what was inside the boxes. There were anti-tampering seals on the openings of the boxes. At that time, Ning Qingyun asked Minister Yan Cheng if there was anything he needed to pay attention to when transporting these things?
In fact, he was somewhat suspicious in his heart that these were some newly developed weapons from the scientific research institute. He didn't know whether these things were afraid of collision or falling. If they were really flammable and explosive items, then there would still be certain risks in transporting them.
Minister Yan Cheng assured him that these boxes were not afraid of being dropped or collided, and that they could be handled in any way as long as they were not unpacked. As long as he handed these boxes to Wen Qingming, his mission would be accomplished.
For this mission, in addition to providing support for transportation and energy, the military also gave an additional reward of 10,000 credit points.
When Huo Ye heard that this mission would give 10,000 credit points, his eyes turned green. They had worked so hard to go in and out of the city gate so many times, for such a long time, and paid a lot of city gate taxes, but they only earned 300 credit points and were just promoted to a two-star mercenary group.
According to the official management measures for civilian mercenary groups issued by the Beijing Safety Zone, civilian mercenary groups with a scale of between 100 and 1,000 people will be upgraded to one-star mercenary groups when they have 100 credit points or more. When they have 300 credit points or more, they will be upgraded to two-star mercenary groups. When they have 1,000 credit points or more, they will be upgraded to three-star mercenary groups. When they have 5,000 credit points or more, they will be upgraded to four-star mercenary groups. When they have 10,000 credit points or more, they will be upgraded to five-star mercenary groups. When they have 20,000 credit points or more, they will be upgraded to the highest level, six stars.
With these 10,000 credit points, they only need to earn another 9,700 points to upgrade to six stars. If the number of mercenaries exceeds 1,000, the credit points can be automatically increased by 1,000.
After upgrading to six stars, you can apply to the official safe zone for a team base. Originally, it seemed out of reach as it required 20,000 credit points, but now I realize that with the boss here and more missions in the future, this wish is still hopeful to come true.
Ning Qingyun, Huo Ye and another forty people immediately left the capital's safe zone and rushed to Jindu. Chai Ming took the remaining men to stay in the capital.
Some time ago, Huo Ye, Chai Ming and others stored a lot of supplies for the winter. Ning Qingyun was afraid that after he left, the Ning family would do harm to his subordinates, so he specifically asked Chai Ming to stay behind and try not to leave the city.
Chai Ming is a meticulous and resourceful man. He understands Ning Qingyun's concerns and acts very carefully.
Just three or four hundred kilometers away from Jindu, Ning Qingyun frowned with an anxious look on his face.
Just now their team was attacked by a group of monsters. Those monsters looked like snow wolves, a native species on Earth, but they were larger, had thicker skin and longer hair, had strong limbs, moved swiftly, and were very difficult to deal with.
This group of monsters were originally no match for Ning Qingyun and his men. If it were a normal day, they would have run away with their tails between their legs after seeing their companions suffered heavy casualties. But now, in the icy and snowy weather with nowhere to find food, this group of monsters that looked like snow wolves were starving and would fight to the death. It was simply a suicide attack.
The Ruyi double rings in Ning Qingyun's hands can transform into nine, and can be used for close or long-range attacks. They are a powerful weapon for group attacks. After a fight, all the monsters were destroyed by Ning Qingyun and the brothers around him. The ground was littered with corpses and red snow.
"Captain, eight of our brothers were injured, seven were slightly injured and one was seriously injured. Xiao Wu just checked. The seriously injured one had a broken leg and lost too much blood. Xiao Wu has already given him the Holy Healing Pill, so his life is not in danger for now. We have harvested 78 monster corpses, 32 of which were relatively intact, and the remaining 46 were damaged to varying degrees." Huo Ye reported to Ning Qingyun.
Most of the monster corpses that Ning Qingyun and his team harvested along the way were disassembled into various materials. Most of the monster meat became their food, while some of the materials were loaded on the car and some were received in Ning Qingyun's gem space.
This time, Ning Qingyun took away 32 relatively intact monster corpses, and disassembled the rest into materials.
"Yezi, come and take a look. Look over here. If you turn in from here, there is a village. The village is hidden and has three exits. It's a good place to stay. Take your brothers to this village to rest for a night, repair the car and recuperate, and then continue your journey tomorrow!" After Ning Qingyun put away his things, he pointed to a map provided by Minister Yan Cheng in his hand and said.
This map is marked in great detail and is the safest and fastest route from the capital to Jindu.
The monster's attack just now not only injured their brothers, but also caused problems for several vehicles. After traveling for such a long time, the vehicles have not undergone regular inspections and maintenance. If they ignore it and continue on their journey, some of these vehicles will probably be scrapped.
This type of all-terrain vehicle is expensive to produce, and if it is scrapped, they will have nowhere to buy a replacement.
"Captain, what about you?" Huo Ye felt his heart skip a beat when he heard this. He had a bad feeling.
"I, I will drive a motorcycle and continue on my journey. I must reach Jindu tonight." Ning Qingyun said firmly.
"No, boss, you haven't slept for two days and two nights, and you haven't had a good rest before. If we weren't too tired, we wouldn't have been ambushed by these cunning monsters. Now you want to go alone, I don't agree. There are so many of us, and the monsters dare to besiege us. Now you want to go alone, it's too dangerous." Huo Ye was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
"Stop talking nonsense. Today is my daughter's fifth birthday. I must get there before tonight." Ning Qingyun's eyes, which were a little red due to fatigue, were filled with a gentle smile when he thought of his beloved wife and children not far ahead.
"Boss, we will be there tomorrow. How about we celebrate Xuanxuan's birthday in a grand way then? You will have many days to celebrate your children's birthdays in the future. Why do you have to risk your life?" Huo Ye persuaded anxiously.
"You don't understand how it feels to be so eager to go home. I want to see them and can't wait a moment." There was an excitement on Ning Qingyun's face that Huo Ye had never seen before.
Huo Ye had never thought that Ning Qingyun, who had been indifferent to the world since childhood, would have such an expression on his face?
"Boss..." Huo Ye spoke again.
"Shh..." Ning Qingyun made a gesture to keep quiet, and a rare liveliness appeared on his usually serious face.
"It's settled. Your schedule tomorrow is not too rushed. You can rest for a while in the morning. No need to rush. I'll be waiting for you at Jindu." Ning Qingyun made the decision.
