The communication is ending.
Li Xin felt calm inside and satisfied, something he hadn't felt in a long time.
I go to the battlefield and fight for my life, firstly to become stronger, and secondly, isn't it also for myself and my family to live a good life?
Li Xin is living a good life now. He has delicious food every day and some small benefits arranged by Lu Quan from time to time.
Li Zhuang is living a good life now. He has a wife and will soon have a child. This is the embodiment of a happy and fulfilling life.
Feeling happy, Li Xin saw that his chaos pollution level was also slowly decreasing.
This made him even more delighted. It turned out that a happy and fulfilling life could also reduce the risk of being corrupted by chaos?
Is this true for everyone, or is it just me?
Seeing the pollution level decreasing little by little, Li Xin had no intention of pursuing the issue any further.
…
In the following days, everything seemed to settle down.
The garrison troops are usually training, while Li Xin has even more free time.
Working hours are the same as rest hours every day. After get off work, I can drive my own Pioneer Mecha.
Two months passed in a flash.
After receiving his salary, Li Xin looked at his salary and found an additional item.
Special subsidies for Dan'an area.
This subsidy is double the salary.
As a result, Li Xin's salary reached 1,350 energy coins per month.
Facing Li Xin's doubts, Lu Quan smiled and said, "Just take it with ease. This is the benefit that everyone in the dispatched army will receive."
"At least until our group leaves this place, it will be available. Normally, we should be able to get it for one or two years."
Li Xin asked, "Where does this money come from?"
Lu Quan explained, "Our army and Heng'an Defense are stationed here, so of course we are the ones collecting the taxes here."
"Tax revenue in the Dan'an region is divided into three parts. The largest portion, five cents, is given to Heng'an Defense. After all, this war zone belongs to Heng'an Defense. They have sent a large army and need military funds."
"Then the group headquarters took 30%. The remaining 20% is currently used as benefits for our dispatched troops until these troops retire or are transferred away."
After listening to it, Li Xin suddenly understood.
This means the entire army can enjoy the fruits of victory together.
Before this, high-ranking officials from both Hengan Defense and the Blueprint Expeditionary Force had been secretly colluding with private companies here for their own benefit.
Taxes are taxes, and the profits from the shares of the cooperation are the bulk of their income.
It’s really great to be a high-ranking official. You can eat from both ends and get the biggest share from both.
Li Xinxin accepted it with peace of mind. After he turned around and left, almost everyone had a happy look on their faces.
After all, the salary has increased, who wouldn’t be happy?
It’s like getting a combat subsidy for free without having to go to the battlefield, which is pretty good.
Not long after returning to the office, Li Xin heard the report from the gene warrior on guard downstairs:
"Captain, the people from the Judgment Department are here."
"Okay, I understand."
After hearing the news, Li Xin left the office and waited outside.
During this period, the people in the Trial Department are the busiest department in Dan'an area.
Because the Chiru tribe had summoned demons before, the area around here was unsafe. One could often see vehicles from the Ministry of Judgment taking away large numbers of people.
Some of them were able to be released, while others disappeared forever.
Even Lu Quan turned a blind eye to this.
The judicial department has great authority, so even if they want to arrest Lu Quan, that is not impossible.
As for how many people they arrested during this period were truly connected to demons or demon believers, no one can say for sure.
Anyway, some industries have fallen into the hands of these judicial departments.
Soon, Gao Bingyan, wearing power armor, followed by a team of soldiers from the Judgment Department, came upstairs.
"High Judge, nice to meet you again. Why are you here this time?" Li Xin asked.
Gao Bingyan had a smile on her face, her eyes narrowed slightly as she chuckled. She said, "Adjutant Li, this is a good thing."
"Please take me to see Director Lu."
Li Xin raised his eyebrows, turned around and took Gao Bingyan into Lu Quan's office. As for the soldiers from the Trial Department, they stayed outside for the time being.
After Gao Bingyan entered the office, Lu Quan, who was originally busy, had to put down his work.
"Director Lu, the Judgment Department has discovered a group of demon believers' base in the Dan'an area."
Lu Quan rubbed his brows and asked tiredly, "Where is it?"
Gao Bingyan said, "In Mabaika, this was originally an open-pit copper mining area, where many humans and Chiru miners lived."
"The priest who once summoned demons in Dan'an City, judging from various clues, fled here."
"The environment here is harsh and resources are scarce, so he easily succeeded in his missionary work. He has already bewitched many Chiru people and humans and turned them into followers of the devil."
Lu Quan sighed and said, "Tell me, what do you need me to do?"
Gao Bingyan's expression remained very serious. "The Judgment Department doesn't have many troops here. I need support from the dispatched troops!"
Lu Quan asked, "How much do you need?"
"A regiment or a brigade, or the more the better. I want to seal off the entire Mabaika area and not let a single devil believer escape."
Lu Quan shook his head and said, "That's impossible. Even with the entire dispatched army here, there aren't that many people. If that's what you said, we'd need to mobilize the Heng'an Defense soldiers to come and assist."
"But now there are also unusual movements in the Kawamo region of the Milda Knights. If these soldiers are transferred, the entire Dan'an region may fall."
"Director Lu, please rest assured. They don't need to actually participate in the battle. They just need to set up a defensive perimeter. The real fighting will be carried out by the soldiers of the Judgment Department."
Lu Quan looked at Gao Bingyan in confusion.
Gao Bingyan explained, "Ordinary soldiers have weak willpower. Once they face these Chaos-corrupted demonic followers, they will be easily affected."
Gao Bingyan paused for a moment before continuing, "During the last invasion, many soldiers who participated in the battle and cleaned up the battlefield were found to have problems."
"These soldiers have been imprisoned and will be sent to the battlefield together this time."
When Lu Quan heard this, his breathing stopped. The number of these imprisoned soldiers was not small, at least 1,500.
Among them, at least 500 were relatively elite armored soldiers of Heng'an Defense. After all, only the elite could be arranged to participate in the security work that night.
As for the cleaning work on the second day, Lu Quan had already guessed that it would be very dangerous, so he only dispatched ordinary soldiers.
