Chapter 8: Military Ranks
The way to gain military merit is very simple, that is to complete missions!
Ye Chen walked into a spacious building. The hall inside was brightly lit. This was originally a community in the residential area, but now it has become an office space. There were many people standing everywhere. On a clean and tidy wall on the right, there was a long row of notices.
With Ye Chen's eyesight, he could see the words clearly even if they were a hundred meters away, so he did not go over to crowd in, but watched from a distance.
Announcement above:
The tasks are divided into five levels: a, b, c, d, f!
Level a: The recipient must reach the intermediate commander level!
Level B: The recipient must reach the general level!
Level C: The recipient must reach the level of major general!
With Ye Chen's soldier level, he can only accept F-level missions. With his current strength, he can complete even A-level missions, but the base city has set this despicable rule.
Why despicable?
You know, if you complete any A-level mission, you will get hundreds of thousands of military merits, and you will be promoted to the level of battalion commander in an instant. And starting from the lower level, a soldier needs 100 military merits to reach the level of captain, and from captain to regiment commander, it takes 5,000 military merits! From regiment commander to battalion commander, it takes 50,000 military merits!
As these layers are added up, when you upgrade from a soldier to a regiment commander, the accumulated 00 military merits will be divided into zero. You need to accumulate 5000 military merits again to be upgraded to a regiment commander, but after the upgrade, the military merits will be reset to zero again.
In the base city, each level has different benefits and equipment.
Soldiers: After joining the army, those who do not have 1,000 military merits in a month will be expelled! Benefits: One Type 64 pistol, two sets of military uniforms, and 0 rounds of ammunition per week!
When military merit expires every month, 1,000 will be automatically deducted! The remaining can be used, such as buying weapons and bullets!
Captain: If a soldier still has 00 points after the monthly military merit deduction, he will automatically become the captain! Benefits: Two Type 64 pistols, one rifle, two sets of military uniforms, and 400 rounds of ammunition every week! Rights: Can fire and reassign team members!
Every month when the time comes, 00 military merits will be automatically deducted! If the military merits are not enough, you will be automatically demoted!
After reaching the captain level, you will hold the power of the army and be in charge of the soldiers. As a result, every month, the captain will receive tasks assigned by the head of the group, such as hunting a certain number of zombies, or escorting food and other resources brought back from outside! In this way, the captain will not dismiss powerful soldiers at will, because if the mission cannot be completed, it will deduct military merit!
Regiment Leader: If the captain has 5,000 military merits left after deducting 00 military merits, he will automatically become the regiment leader! Benefits: One sniper rifle, one submachine gun, one rifle, one pistol, and 1,000 rounds of bullets every week!
Battalion Commander: After deducting 5,000 military merits, if you still have 50,000 military merits, you will automatically become the battalion commander! Benefits: Submachine guns, rifles, cannons and other weapons. You will receive tasks from the headquarters every month. You can only be promoted if you complete certain performance! If you don't complete it, you will be demoted at any time!
As for those above them, the notice did not show that they were already big shots at the "general" level! It was said that those big shots were treasures of the base city, and they would be given a certain amount of base meat every month. Unlike the battalion commanders and regiment commanders, they had to work hard every month. If they did not meet the military merit requirements of the profession, they would be demoted immediately!
10g of basic meat is equal to one point of military merit!
A soldier's 1,000 military merits per month is equivalent to 10,000g of genetically modified meat. Based on 150g of genetic medicine, a bottle of genetic medicine is equivalent to the strength of one person...
It can allow an ordinary soldier to reach the strength of about 35 people! After reaching the strength of 10 people, you need a level 2 basic flesh, so you have to divide it by 2. When you reach the strength of people, you have to divide it by 2 again, and so on.
If the military merit does not reach the qualified level, it cannot be used to purchase firearms, etc. For example, a soldier's military merit cannot be used before it reaches 1,000 points, just like suppressing his salary.
The benefits are optimized at each level. For example, captain-level characters can enjoy a 10% discount when purchasing weapons and bullets from the commercial warehouse in the base city using military purchases. The higher the level, the greater the discount!
Ye Chen knew that as the remains of prehistoric civilization were unearthed, many treasures would fall into the commercial treasury of the base city and be stored by the Ministry of Commerce. The high-level items in those ruins of civilization were extremely expensive treasures, worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of points. At this time, discounts would be extremely popular, and people of high level could save a lot of military merits by purchasing them once.
If a pistol with unlimited energy bullets like the one in his hand were sold, it would definitely attract countless people to scramble for it. After all, no one has yet developed the remains of prehistoric civilization.
However, Ye Chen does not plan to sell this kind of treasure yet. He will sell it when the ruins are about to come out. If I remember correctly, in the previous life, the first ruins discovered in Huaxia Base City were the prehistoric civilization of Atlantis!
It was the remains of an extremely advanced civilization, and was definitely not as low-level and pitifully small as the rune civilization he had encountered.
Calculating the time, it’s almost time…
In addition to discounts, the higher the officer's rank, the more benefits he or she will receive.
Some cunning people will stay at the soldier level, and after paying 1,000 military merit fees every month, they will use the rest for themselves to increase their strength. You should know that a captain has to pay 00 a month, a regiment commander 5,000, and a battalion commander 50,000!
However, the base city is so large that it is natural that no one will be able to take advantage of loopholes, otherwise it will really be a "everyone is a soldier".
A soldier only has 0 bullets per week, and his only weapon is a 5-6 pistol. This pistol is difficult to hit against a level 10 monster, which means it is completely useless. The only way is to fight hand-to-hand...
However, in hand-to-hand combat, monsters are definitely stronger than humans. They have sharp claws, sharp teeth, and tough skin. Some scale-armored monsters have even more terrifying defenses. Without good weapons, they will encounter the same predicament that Ye Chen fell into earlier, and can only use their fists to hit.
In such a situation, a new human of level 10 can only kill monsters of level 9 or even level 8 at most. When facing monsters of the same level, he can only run away. In this way, the speed of hunting monsters is greatly reduced.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Only when the officer level is upgraded can good weapons be distributed and the speed of hunting monsters can be increased. For example, a submachine gun or sniper rifle used by a regiment leader can "shoot" and kill a level 10 monster.
In addition, as your level increases, you can also receive the military merit tasks in front of you.
A soldier can only accept F-level missions, and each mission only gives a few dozen points of military merit. It takes more than a dozen to be equal to a D-level mission. A lot of time is wasted just on running away...
Therefore, this will eliminate the possibility of people remaining at the soldier level without any advancement.
"F-level mission catalogue..."
Ye Chen looked down, "Ordinary task: Hunt 100 zombies, obtain 500g of basic meat and turn it in, and be rewarded with 50 points of military merit!" This is a daily task. You can claim it as many times as you want. It is specially prepared for those who use basic meat to exchange for military merit.
"Ordinary mission: Find various food ingredients, such as eggs, candies, instant noodles, etc., and give military merits of relative value according to the evaluation of the Ministry of Commerce!"
"Ordinary mission: Find daily materials, such as gas, gasoline, electric lights, excavators and other materials. Relevant military merit will be awarded according to the evaluation of the Ministry of Commerce!"
"Ordinary mission..."
There are more than a dozen common tasks below, which can be repeatedly claimed and are extremely simple. Many soldiers will record the claims in their personal task lists. For example, when killing zombies outside, if they see something on the task list, they will collect it and exchange it for military merit to strengthen themselves. The base city has also taken this opportunity to strengthen the base city, making the source of various things extremely fast and complete!
Next, there are some tasks.
"There is a power station in Shanghai. The exploration team is waiting for it, but it lacks an escort. After completing the mission at the soldier level, you will be awarded 800 points of military merit, and at the captain level, you will be awarded 1,600 points of military merit! During the mission, if you win the second prize awarded by the exploration team, your military merit will increase by 50%! If you win the first prize, your military merit will increase by 100%!"
Ye Chen took a look and saw this task in the D-level task list next to it, but the military merits given were different. The regiment commander there gave 4,000! The battalion commander gave 40,000!
"Too time-consuming!" Ye Chen shook his head. Starting from here to Shanghai, in the outside world where monsters are rampant, the progress is slow. It is still a question whether it can be completed in half a month.
Then, he looked at the next task...
He was totally unaware that the people around him were looking at him with something strange in their eyes. A man standing at the door of the hall saw the small words on the wall seven or eight meters away. How good of eyesight does it take to do this?
