In front of 008
is the Mercenary Association.
In March, the Southeast Base is still on winter time. The aircraft takes off on time at six o'clock every morning, transporting thousands of mercenaries to various mission areas. At five o'clock in the evening, the aircraft will also carry completed or unfinished products. The mercenaries on the mission returned to the base on time.
The mercenaries must come to the association to hand in tasks, so evening is the peak flow of people in the association.
The association's work efficiency is very high, and it can basically complete the task verification work before eight o'clock in the evening. Therefore, the vast majority of mercenaries are willing to wait in line and finish things in one day to avoid taking up the next day's time. They only have free time Only mercenaries who are rich but impatient to wait in long lines will go home after getting off the aircraft and come back the next day.
All in all, the Mercenary Association's flow of people during the day is not large, and it is more lively on weekends.
There was a parking lot outside the base. Qin Chi slowed down and asked, "Park here?"
Xu Qiao smiled: "I thought you would just go into the space."
After getting to know each other along the way and becoming teammates, the two After making an appointment, address each other directly by name.
Qin Chi replied with a smile while reversing the car: "It's better not to be too high-profile when you are away from home."
After getting out of the car, the two walked side by side towards the association hall.
About five minutes away, Xu Qiao first talked about his situation: "I have only saved three contribution points, so I can only try to pick stronger ones among the same rookie teams. What about you?"
The four major bases are far away from each other. In the state of communication disconnection, only the official senior officials or top wealthy families have the means to communicate across bases, but the contribution points and points between bases are universal.
Qin Chi: "I'm ashamed to say that I have twenty-two points, which is the most average level at this age."
From the age of eighteen to twenty-eight, he took on basic tasks twice a year . The situation of ordinary C-level part-time mercenaries.
Xu Qiao: "Having successfully completed twenty-two missions, you are considered rich in experience and have space. Or you can find your teammates yourself? There are more opportunities."
Qin Chi: "The higher the strength of the team, the higher the requirements for teammates. The higher the constraints, the more I prefer to team up with acquaintances I feel comfortable with."
Xu Qiao can understand this choice.
Take her as an example, even if she joins his B-level team because of Zhao Feng, will his B-level teammates treat her equally? Including Zhao Feng, who also had ulterior motives. On the contrary, if she joins a rookie team with the weakest strength and no experience, her teammates will support her and respect her in everything, and then when danger comes, everyone will become the food of alien beasts.
The best team combination is one where the team members are of equal strength, respect each other, help each other, and get along harmoniously.
Xu Qiao took out his notepad from his bag, turned to the two latest pages and handed it to him: "This is the candidate team I compiled. Do you want to take a look first?"
Qin Chi stopped and looked at it carefully.
The little landlord's handwriting is elegant, and each mercenary team is marked with the knowable teammates' ability level, mental body type, contribution point data, number of team members, age and personality, etc.
The mercenary team took the initiative to reveal a lot in the recruitment post, and the data recorded by Xu Qiao was detailed. The simplest ones only included the team name and the poster's data.
After Qin Chi read it, he pointed to the ten or so pages that were folded in front and asked, "Are they all similar information?"
Xu Qiao said, "Yes, I will select a few teams to apply for jobs every month, but unfortunately none of them were successful."
Either Others look down upon her, or she cannot accept the character flaws revealed by some team members.
Qin Chi smiled and said: "Then I wish us success in forming a team today."
The first floor of the association is spacious and bright, with plenty of light shining in through the ten-meter-high floor-to-ceiling glass. The huge electronic screen scrolls with the information that can be collected in the near future. Base mission.
It has been a convention for more than a hundred years that mercenaries will conduct transactions in the open space at the east end of the first floor, while the west end is used for team recruitment.
Free venue, free water and electricity plus free security, there is no place more suitable than here.
Xu Qiao led the way, and Qin Chi walked leisurely on her right, as if he was visiting a museum.
Before entering, Qin Chi hoped that Xu Qiao would be responsible for talking to each mercenary team on the grounds that he was not used to such occasions, and he supported all Xu Qiao's decisions.
Xu Qiao: "What if I think it's suitable and you have a team member who doesn't suit your needs?"
Qin Chi: "We only work together once every six months. As long as the other party has no principled character issues, I can tolerate any character flaws."
Xu Qiao: "This But as you said, if you really quarrel with me in the future, don’t blame me for my poor taste.”
Qin Chi smiled: “I believe in your ability to pick people up.” He
just chose his landlord Xu among the dozen or so guests. "..."
However, Qin Chi does seem to be a person who will not easily argue with anyone, and politeness seems to be imprinted in his bones.
The open space at the west end is large, with eight rows of stalls neatly arranged, each stall equipped with a one-meter-long table and four chairs.
These are provided by the association, which not only provides convenience to the mercenaries, but also prevents the mercenaries from setting up their own stalls, causing chaos and affecting the appearance of the hall.
Among them, the fifth row is the combat mercenary recruitment booth, and the third row is the healer recruitment booth.
Combat-type mercenaries face dangers, and their mortality rate remains high. Although healers are protected by team members, their ability to protect themselves is poor, and their mortality rate is not low after leaving the base.
Xu Qiao had already memorized the name of the team he was applying for. As he walked, he browsed the team names on the electronic screen of the booth. When he saw an alternative, he took Qin Chi and lined up at the back of the team.
They arrived early, and there were only two competitors in front of them, one of whom was applying for a job.
Xu Qiao looked at the four people sitting in the stall, three men and one woman. Almost at the moment Xu Qiao raised her eyes, one of the male mercenaries with scars and bulging muscles on his face looked towards her, his gaze undisguised. He moved it around her face, then moved it to her breasts, with an ambiguous smile on his lips.
How can you identify such a gangster just by reading the words in the post?
Xu Qiao raised her feet and was about to leave.
The scar-faced man suddenly left his seat, walked around the stall and stopped in front of her: "Little sister, don't leave, are you a C-level therapist?"
Xu Qiao just looked coldly at the broad chest in front of him that was exuding thick sweat: "Yes, you are blocking my way, please give way."
The scar-faced man didn't care about her expression and said with a smile: "We are recruiting therapists. I think you are very compatible, so it's you. Since you have come to apply for the job , you should know that the strength of our team is definitely the best among the junior teams. I guarantee that you can come back unscathed every time."
He was extremely enthusiastic, but a tall and thin teammate frowned: "Old Wang, you. Don't make random decisions, the captain said, the recruitment requires unanimous approval from the four of us."
The scar-faced man immediately looked at the gentle man with glasses sitting on the chair.
The gentle man with glasses first looked at Qin Chi and then at Xu Qiao. However, before he could speak, Xu Qiao said: "Captain, you should know the rules in the hall better than me. Should you call your team members back or should you?" Shall I call the security guard?"
The man with glasses twitched his eyes and said coldly: "Old Wang, come back."
The voice could not be refused. The scar-faced man clenched his fists and pointed at Xu Qiao and said fiercely: "No toast. You can eat fine wine and have the ability..."
Qin Chi, who was following Xu Qiao silently, suddenly took out a pair of earplugs from his pocket and held them in front of her: "If you don't want to hear the noise, you can try this."
Xu Qiao: "..."
The scar-faced man: "...Say it again!"
Qin Chi looked at him calmly: "The difference between humans and alien beasts lies not only in the use of language and technological tools, but also in moral cultivation and cultural inheritance. If You understand what I mean, please correct the animalistic side of you. If you don’t understand, then I don’t need to say any more.”
The scar-faced man understood, this person was scolding him!
He raised his fist high, but was stopped by the man with glasses in time: "Wang Li, do you want to go to jail?"
Ignoring the scarred man's changing complexion, Xu Qiao and Qin Chi walked to the next recruitment booth as if nothing had happened.
Contrary to expectations, Xu Qiao's application today was still not smooth.
There are arrogant male mercenaries who don't take women seriously because of their strong attack power, sensitive female mercenaries who are worried that their boyfriend will be seduced by Xu Qiao, and even others who are eager to recruit Qin Chi even though they don't like Xu Qiao. The "generous" captain who is willing to give Xu Qiao a chance. Of course, most of them simply dislike Xu Qiao's inexperienced normal team.
Xu Qiao, an outstanding graduate of the Third Military Academy, is a little depressed. Could it be that the team strength she set is really too high and she needs to lower the standard?
Her lost eyes accidentally fell on an unattended recruitment booth diagonally opposite.
There was only a fat young man sitting there, who looked like a recent graduate of a military academy like her.
When their eyes met, the other person blushed, lowered his head and pretended to tidy up the desktop with only two pieces of paper.
Xu Qiao has never met a male with such shy abilities. With a hint of curiosity, she walked to the other party's stall and held down the paper that was about to be taken away.
One is a blank form, and the other is a team introduction.
This mercenary team called "Silence is Golden" currently has only one captain, a slightly fat boy.
Sun Fushan is a C-level earth element user with mental body: turtle. He is good at defense and graduated from the Second Military Academy.
Note: Stuttering makes communication difficult.
Turtles with such mental bodies are not unusual. Xu Qiao asked in surprise: "The Second Military Academy you attended?"
Sun Fushan nodded with a blushing face.
Xu Qiao looked at Teacher Qin from the second school next to him. It was difficult for even a B-level superpower user from an ordinary family to enter the second school. The person in front of him was only C-level. What?
But she hid her curiosity in time and asked about the recruitment: "You only recruit one therapist, and you dare to go out to do tasks?"
Sun Fushan took out another pavilion number plate, lowered his head and said: "First Recruiting a doctor, a therapist, and another one."
Xu Qiao felt troubled for him, but even if she turned around and left after saying so many words...
Qin Chi said: "I'll attack. , he defends, you heal, and then recruit a combat type, it should be enough. "
It has both offensive and defensive medicine, it is quite complete.
Xu Qiao was also tired of the interview process again and again. Qin Chi proved his strength with twenty-two contribution points. Xu Qiao asked Sun Fushan emphatically: "How many contribution points do you have?"
Sun Fushan held out three fingers. , and then took out a certificate from his arms, which was proof that he was an outstanding C-level graduate of the Second Military Academy and was in the same class as Xu Qiao.
If it weren't for the fact that Xu Qiao's lotus flower had extra petals for no reason, their resumes would be evenly matched, and Sun Fushan's second-school education would be even higher than hers.
Of course, it is far easier for Xu Qiao to join the team as a therapist than for Sun Yanshan to form the team himself.
Xu Qiao introduced the situation between her and Qin Chi and asked: "Can we join your team?"
Sun Fushan, who had failed to recruit several times in a row, stood up excitedly: "Okay, great, great !"
Xu Qiao breathed a sigh of relief after the team was successfully formed: "Then let's recruit the last teammate together?"
Sun Yanshan nodded happily, quickly packed up his things, scanned the QR code to end the use of the recruitment booth, and led the way to the combat department recruitment area. .
It's ten o'clock, the area is crowded, and there are almost no idle stalls. Sun Huanshan looked around and ran towards a stall that had just been vacated. Xu Qiao suddenly spotted a tall figure he had just seen yesterday - Meng Li, who was wearing a black combat uniform and had a cold face. He stopped at a clear target. In front of the mercenary team setting up a stall.
Not too far away, Xu Qiao couldn't help but listen.
"Meng Li? You, are you back?"
"Yes, I have hunted eight C-level beasts in total. You gave me five crystal cores to complete the task, and you can keep the rest for yourself."
"Ah, but we thought you were ...We only hunted a total of ten C-class beasts that day. Yesterday, the captain and Oda handed in the mission first, and we still have to recruit...No, since you are back, we don't need to recruit new teammates. We will do it tomorrow. One mission, just complete the mission for the three of us.”
"No, you can leave me behind once, or you can leave me behind a second time. Return me five crystal cores before the end of the month, and the events of that day will be wiped out."
The four team members were silent in unison.
Meng Li left after stating the conditions.
When Xu Qiao saw it, he gave Qin Chi a look, smiled and went after Meng Li.
Meng Li heard the footsteps getting closer and closer, but thought it had nothing to do with her. It wasn't until alumni Xu stopped in front of her that Meng Li stopped unexpectedly.
"What happened yesterday..."
Xu Qiao said with a smile: "What happened yesterday has passed. Now our team is missing a teammate. I wonder if you are interested?"
