Chapter 1566: Resettlement System, a Test of Strength!

"Mr. Qin, it's not that the Baiduan Mountains are popular, it's that any team with more than five people will be like this."

It's not just Su Mo who has this question, many people who came to the mission hall have the same idea as him.

After the two of them left the mission hall, Xiao Liu explained in a low voice:

"Before the eight-person system was introduced, many people who didn't know their own strength rushed out at will, and there was no way to restrict them well. Now with this layer of team identification, each team has become a grasshopper on a rope, and naturally they don't want their teammates to be too weak."

"And after the casualty rate has dropped, the total expenditure of materials has also been controlled, and each team can be equipped with better weapons and equipment, which further increases the chances of survival of each team."

"So...it's really a good idea!"

Su Mo nodded. More and more people rushed out alone, and the death rate would only remain high.

Even if there are occasionally people who are lucky enough to escape unscathed, it can't cover up the bloody reality behind it.

And going back to the purpose of creating a mercenary area, it was originally to put more pressure on the aliens during the truce time.

If they all rushed to die, it would boost the morale of the aliens.

The road to the east area was not far away, and many mercenaries stood in the yard in front of the small building and chatted along the way.

Su Mo also met a few newcomers who had been at the checkpoint before, and everyone was curious about him, a newcomer from Tianyuan Territory.

Some people even came up to say hello and asked Su Mo if he had any ideas to create a team.

After Su Mo declined, Xiao Liu, who followed closely beside him, couldn't help but said in surprise:

"Mr. Qin, are you from Tianyuan Territory?"

"Yes."

"Good guy, you should be the first person from Tianyuan Territory in the mercenary area, right?"

After saying that, Xiao Liu showed a look of regret mixed with envy.

"My biggest wish in this life is to join Tianyuan Territory one day. I didn't expect you to take the initiative to leave there and join the front line as a mercenary!"

"Everyone has their own choice." Su Mo smiled, "You are on the front line, even if it is not a high-risk job, you should be able to accumulate enough points for admission soon, right?"

"Yes, I already have 32 points!"

Afraid that Su Mo would not believe it, Xiao Liu took out his mobile terminal to show it.

The name of Xiao Liu, 'Liu Cong', is shown on it, and his contribution points, '32', are shown below.

Unlike the identity system in the future ruins, it strictly stipulates everyone's destination and origin.

Due to the interference of Su Mo's ideas, there are currently no restrictions on individuals joining the territory freely, even joining the Tianyuan Territory.

However, joining a large territory as a free person requires everything to start from scratch.

Whether it is job selection, work remuneration, housing allocation, or resident welfare, it will take about three years to reach the current average level.

If you join through the front-line resettlement policy, the treatment of the two can be said to be very different.

As long as the individual's cumulative contribution score in many fields such as front-line combat, logistics support, intelligence collection, etc. can reach 50 points, he will immediately have the qualification to choose any large territory to live in.

If the score rises further to 80 points, the three royal territories will also open their doors to him and let him choose.

And once you break through the 100-point merit line, you will enjoy the top treatment of being sent directly by a special car and settling in the Tianyuan territory in a grand manner.

At the same time, the front-line resettlement agency will also fully guarantee the individual's living needs.

A comfortable residence with an area of ​​no less than 20 square meters will be arranged in the first place, and sufficient rations for a whole year will be distributed on time and in full, and there will be generous benefits at the local average level, rich and diverse job opportunities, etc.

From a restrictive identity system to an incentive resettlement system.

The purpose of the two diversions has not changed, but the results achieved and the impact on ordinary people are completely different.

"Thanks, and good luck to you."

When they arrived at the East District, Su Mo stopped and took the stress-resistant box from Xiao Liu.

The two parted ways at the gate of the district, and Su Mo picked up the box and counted the house numbers and walked towards the B-5 building.

All the way here, in fact, the size and scale of these small buildings can basically judge the strength of the teams stationed there.

Among the four districts of East, West, South, and North, the building in the East District is the largest, almost twice the size of the southern district.

Each small building is also equipped with a large front yard, and many teams have transformed it into a training area.

At this time, when Su Mo came to the B-5 building, the stationing point of the "fire suppression" team.

There were many people gathered in the front yard, some standing outside to watch the excitement, and some shouting loudly in the yard.

"Hey, punch him. How can you win if you keep shrinking!"

"You are so timid. If you meet a foreign race, you will probably pee your pants in fear, right?"

"Take the opportunity to hit him in the lower body. This is not a competition in the ring. Are you waiting for us to give you a prize?"

"If others punch, you punch. If others kick, you kick. You two should stop fighting!"

"..."

Amid the shouting, Su Mo frowned and walked closer. He found that two young men were fighting in the front yard.

Both of them were shirtless, wearing only shorts. Their skin was shining because of sweat. The tight muscle lines were clearly visible, as if every muscle was full of power and ready to explode at any time.

The ground under their feet seemed to have been sprayed with water in advance to prevent injuries, and it had turned into a small mud puddle.

The muddy water splashed with their movements, and no one cared when it splashed on the onlookers.

"Tsk tsk, the quality of newcomers is getting worse and worse now. I think you should just go to the next door to serve as soldiers."

"Playing defense with aliens, I wonder if your armor is harder or their weapons are harder!"

The others were still shouting, and the young man on the left seemed to be affected by these words. He took the initiative to attack, rushing forward again and again, trying to suppress his opponent with strength.

However, the young man facing him was not inferior in strength at all. They fought back and forth, and the two were in a stalemate again.

It was not until a few minutes later that a middle-aged man next to the mud pit picked up a gong and knocked it, and the two stopped.

"Okay, both of you are not qualified, go inside to take a shower and leave."

The route gave humans strong physical fitness, but it could not bring more advanced combat skills.

If you go outside with brute force and encounter aliens, you will only lose your life and harm the team.

However, surprisingly, after the middle-aged man finished speaking, the two young men in the field said angrily at the same time:

"I don't accept it. I'm just a little weak in close combat. My shooting skills are very good, better than yours!"

"I don't accept it either. I said before I came that I was good at traps. You know, I didn't say I was good at wrestling here."

One is good at shooting, and the other is good at traps.

If what the two said is true, then they are actually very popular in the mercenary area. Many teams need such talents with special skills, rather than reckless men in close combat.

It's a pity that the middle-aged man did not change his expression after listening to it, and shook his head gently, "Please find another place. The tasks currently received by our fire suppression team require people who are good at close combat first. Other skills will only be bonus items, not decisive items."

Hearing what he said, the two blushing people snorted coldly, took advantage of the situation and turned away.

And there were also many people watching the excitement in the crowd who paused, picked up the communicator on their waists and sent a message.

The fire suppression team doesn't want it, but their team does.

If such a talent is let go, you may not be able to find him next time.

"Hello, I'll come to determine the qualifications."

While the crowd was slightly dispersed, Su Mo came forward with a box and stood by the mud pit in the front yard.

"You... are a newcomer?"

The middle-aged man looked up and down, and his eyes fixed when he saw the pressure-resistant box in Su Mo's hand.

The missions accepted by the East District team must be at least 800 kilometers away from the front-line station, and most of them are between 1,000 and 2,000 kilometers, which is much more dangerous than the missions of the new team in the South District.

Therefore, even the two people who were just determined to have failed are ruthless people who have completed at least three missions.

It's just that the previous team had too high a casualty rate and was forced to disband because there were not enough people to carry out the next mission, so it was necessary to change the team.

It can't be said that a newcomer dared to come directly to the East District to accept a mission. This... can't be said to have never been seen before, it can only be said to be extremely rare.

"Yes, I just registered for the qualifications and received the mission."

Su Mo answered truthfully.

Instantly, the crowd who had just been watching the excitement nearby were attracted again and looked over one by one.

However, relatively speaking, these people were friendly to the newcomers and did not directly mock them.

On the contrary, there were a few mature-looking people who advised Su Mo to change places and not come here to die in vain.

"Then do you know where the Baiduan Mountains are?"

"Yes, starting from here, 1,900 kilometers east is the Baiduan Mountains."

"You came even though you knew it?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Let me introduce myself first. I am Harvey Merrick, the deputy captain of the fire suppression team."

"Due to the special nature of the mission, our team will not carry too many weapons this time, especially guns and ammunition. In many cases, they cannot be used. Therefore, you need to have sufficient mastery of close combat and cold weapon combat. In addition, it is best to have medical ability. The distance is too far and we may be injured at any time and cannot get back."

"Understood, I can be responsible for medical care. As long as the materials are sufficient, some minor operations are no problem."

Su Mo nodded and took out his ID card and handed it over.

This statement is actually a bit too modest. With his current knowledge and practical ability, he can at least reach the level of top surgeons, not to mention being comparable to those masters who have been immersed in the territory for decades.

The middle-aged man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he took the ID card and swiped it lightly on his terminal.

"Name: Qin Yuan"

"Strength identification: Level 25 combat route owner"

"Team identification: Fire Suppression Team (identification in progress)"

After entering the mercenary area, everyone's identity information will be kept confidential to a certain extent.

Not hearing about the previously eye-catching Tianyuan territory origin, the crowd was not too surprised.

However, the twenty-fifth-level route still made many people exclaim.

The average level of the East District is about level 18, and the highest level is level 29. No wonder this newcomer dared to come directly to the East District to take the task. It turns out that he is a dragon crossing the river.

"Not bad, level 25... and it's a combat route, your physical fitness should be very strong."

"If you master medical skills..."

Merrick hesitated, "There are no newcomers coming now, do you want to wait for the next newcomer, or should I help you now?"

After saying that, he was afraid that Su Mo would have other concerns and added, "Don't worry, although my route level is 27 and it is also a combat route, I will try my best to suppress my physical advantage and compete with you fairly."

"It's okay, come on."

Su Mo put down the box, took off his denim jacket and folded it on the box.

"Aren't you going to take it all off?"

Merrick smiled, knowing that this was a sign of Su Mo's confidence.

So he didn't take off his shirt, and also threw his jacket aside, and stood with Su Mo on the clean grass next to the mud pit.

"You first?"

"Okay!"

Su Mo responded, stepped lightly, and moved as fast as a cheetah, shortening the distance between the two in the blink of an eye.

Before Merrick could make a complete defensive move, Su Mo approached with unusual ease, his left hand stretched out like a spirit snake, accurately grasped Merrick's right elbow, and his right hand took advantage of the situation to clasp the opponent's wrist, and both hands twisted violently, and a huge torque instantly acted on Merrick's arm.

Merrick felt a sharp pain in his arm, and his body instinctively wanted to break free. However, his previous arrogant behavior made it difficult for him to get a breath. As Su Mo took a step forward with his left leg, inserted it between Merrick's legs, and at the same time turned his waist with force, a beautiful shoulder throw lifted Merrick up high.

Wow.

Merrick waved his limbs in panic in the air, but he could not change his fate. Then, with a muffled "bang", he fell heavily on the grass.

All this happened so fast that the onlookers didn't even have time to exclaim.

When Merrick fell to the ground, before he recovered from the sudden flip, Su Mo had approached again, kneeling on one knee, pressing on Merrick's chest, clenching his right fist, and pretending to smash it down.

"Brother, let's spar, don't kill me!"

The members of the surrounding fire suppression team rushed up and breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Su Mo stop.

Although Merrick was not the best at close combat in the team, his level 27 route ability determined that he would not be weak.

Unfortunately, in front of Su Mo, this level 27 was like paper and was punctured in an instant.

"Thank you."

Su Mo stood up and bowed his hand with a smile.

He did not overwhelm the opponent with his physical fitness just now, but took the lead purely by relying on skills and the opponent's carelessness.

If Merrick had just defended well, he might have had to go two rounds to win.

It was not until this time that the surrounding spectators reacted and the crowd exploded.

"Old Harvey, are you letting us win? We were defeated by a newcomer in seconds?"

"Fuck, this newcomer is really powerful. He was really good at spitting out his tongue just now."

"There is something, there is something. Old Harvey can't beat a newcomer."

"Brother, our Silver Elephant team is short of a vice-captain. Why don't you consider joining our team?"

"Get lost. There are only three people left in your Silver Elephant team. The newcomer may not be able to go on a mission for a month. Why don't you come to our Violet team? I'll give you 20% of the reward!"

At first, the crowd was still amazed that a newcomer could beat the vice-captain of the old team.

But after a while, the call for recruitment became louder and louder, and Merrick was so shocked that he jumped up from the ground.

"Get lost, this is our man!"

"We are from the Fire Suppression Team!"

...
