Chapter 1567: Fire Suppression Team, A-Level Capability!

Merrick's eyes shone after he finished speaking, and he quickly stepped in front of Su Mo, stood firmly, and blocked Su Mo tightly behind him.

At the same time, he turned his head to look at the members of the fire suppression team.

"Torres, Sanchez!"

Merrick shouted in a low and powerful voice, and his voice echoed in the courtyard, "Don't stand there stupidly, send away all these idle people surrounding the station immediately, so many people are chattering, it's so noisy!"

"Tsk..."

There were boos around the courtyard, and everyone cast contemptuous eyes at Old Harvey!

But then again, in the cruel world of mercenaries, the stronger the comprehensive strength of the team, the greater the probability of survival.

If their team recruited such a fierce man, he would only be more protective of his calf than Old Harvey.

"Everyone, please leave, or our captain will probably get mad."

"Qin Yuan is already a member of our team. According to the rules, if you want to recruit him, you have to wait until a month later."

Torres was the tough guy who just came up to break up the fight. He was very burly, like a door panel.

But to Su Mo's surprise, Sanchez was not inferior to Torres at all. When the two stood forward, they had a strong deterrent effect.

In addition, in order to prevent malicious poaching by various teams, it was explicitly restricted to not recruit new people within one month.

Everyone knew it in their hearts. If they continued to waste time here, they would not get any benefits except being annoying.

So the crowd began to disperse, and soon they left.

The two young men who had just come out of the shower were a little confused, and almost thought they had gone to the wrong place.

"Did he pass?"

"Yes, Mr. Qin will become the seventh member of our fire suppression team."

The young man on the left looked at Su Mo, his eyes flickered, and finally snorted coldly and turned away.

The young man on the right was more polite. He picked up the backpack placed by the wall and smiled at Su Mo, "Brother, I wish you good luck. I hope to see you here again next month."

"Thank you."

After all, there was no old plot of pretending to be cool and then getting slapped in the face. In addition to courage, the more important thing for those who can appear on the front line is to be very clear about their own strength.

Perhaps they did not think that Su Mo could beat them in the direction he was good at, but he must be much better than them in close combat if he could pass the selection of the fire suppression team.

After all, no one would joke about their own life and choose an unreliable teammate when going on a mission.

After everyone left, Merrick rubbed his hands and looked over eagerly.

"Brother Qin, you are awesome. Although I was a little careless just now, most people can't learn these two moves of yours."

"Captain, you are polite. I also took the lead."

Su Mo picked up the box and followed Merrick into the small building.

As soon as he stepped into the small building, a warm atmosphere hit him.

The public area on the first floor is very spacious, with thick non-slip tiles on the ground, which can perfectly withstand the heavy weight of the team members and isolate the sound of walking.

The walls are painted dark gray, with several detailed maps hanging on them, marking the dangerous areas around the Baiduan Mountains and the routes of action, obviously to facilitate the team members to study tactics at any time.

In the corner, there is a long solid wood table and several solid wood benches neatly placed, with a warm luster.

There are four dormitories on both sides of the corridor. Merrick pushed open the door and saw a single bed against the corner. The bed was covered with dark blue bedding, which was tight and comfortable to look at.

There is a small bedside table next to the bed with clear wood texture and a brand new table lamp on it.

In addition, there is a simple wardrobe and two trash cans in the room.

"There are four rooms on the first floor, and the one left is on the north side."

"There are also four rooms on the second floor, but the one left is on the south side. Where do you want to live?"

Su Mo smiled and replied, "The second floor, I like the south side."

"Okay."

The two of them climbed up the wooden stairs to the second floor. Unexpectedly, there was a desk in the room on the second floor.

The tabletop was flat and smooth, with some paper and pens placed on it.

"This used to be the base of an A-level team, but unfortunately all the members died in the previous mission. In the end, our captain quickly snatched it away. This desk was left by their deputy captain."

"A-level team, are mercenary teams still divided into levels?"

"Of course." Merrick grinned, "Grading is actually a concept that was only proposed last month. The purpose is to further refine the limits of each team and prevent greater casualties. There are currently five levels of teams: S, A, B, C, and D. Our Fire Suppression Team is an A-level team and can accept any mission below S-level."

"To upgrade to an S-level team, you need to complete three A-level missions. If the mission in the Baiduan Mountains can be successfully completed this time, we only need two!"

The Fire Suppression Team is only A-level?

Su Mo asked in surprise: "How many S-class teams are there in the mercenary zone now?"

"Uh..."

Merrick paused, looked at Su Mo with some surprise, then remembered Su Mo's identity and said suddenly: "There must be none."

"Huh?"

"The S-class team is the ultimate goal of all mercenaries. As long as you choose to retire, you can at least get 50,000 contribution points. The reward is more than enough to open a small territory."

"In addition, if you choose to serve in the army next door, you will at least start as a captain of ten thousand men, which is much better than being in danger here."

After Merrick finished speaking, Su Mo suddenly remembered the purpose of the mercenaries coming here to fight for their lives.

Seeking wealth is only the lowest level. Many people hope to turn over a bright future.

According to the normal promotion route of the Nova Corps, they may not be able to become centurions until they die.

On the contrary, for mercenaries, as long as they can get a seat in the S-level team, they will have a stable and bright future!

"Okay, you take a rest first. I'll ask Torres to help you buy some daily necessities and report your information to the mission office. Reserve a wave of weapons and equipment first, otherwise we will have to wait for a while if they are snatched by others."

"When the captain comes back, I will tell you more details."

Merrick left simply, making it clear that he wanted to finalize Su Mo's joining the fire suppression team as soon as possible.

Otherwise, there are so many people outside who are eyeing him covetously. Who can guarantee that he will not be intercepted halfway?

Su Mo was not in a hurry, but took out the mobile phone he bought on the front line to connect to the network of the mercenary area and enter the major chat groups to observe.

This is a good habit.

People in high positions often fall into a special information cocoon, especially strong people like Su Mo who are almost at the top of the human race on earth.

The high wall built by power and status makes the information from the outside world be screened and filtered before it reaches their ears and eyes. What is finally presented in front of them is only a one-sided, beautified or distorted so-called "truth".

Especially for those leaders who have insufficient control over their subordinates, this phenomenon is more obvious.

These people can neither go deep into the grassroots to understand the most real situation, nor are they surrounded by flatterers around them. The information they receive is increasingly deviating from reality. If this goes on, decision-making errors and judgment biases are inevitable.

For a whole afternoon, Su Mo stayed at home and immersed in the chat of the mercenaries on the front line.

During this period, Torres went in and out, and bought almost half a year's worth of daily necessities. He bought more than ten sets of clothes alone, which almost scared Su Mo.

He came here just to get a ride, not really wanting to live on the front line for half a year!

"Brother Qin, this is the captain's order, so don't be polite."

Torres scratched the back of his head and told the truth: "Just don't leave before this mission."

"Don't worry, I won't leave."

Su Mo laughed dumbly.

In fact, he had guessed that the people in the Fire Suppression Team probably knew that he was from the Tianyuan Territory.

Otherwise, there was really no reason to please him like this. It's not possible to treat him like this just because he showed off his skills, right?

Sure enough, in the evening, Captain Zhao Lei hurried back after receiving the news.

A big man from Northeast China with a beard and a rough face.

After entering the door, he heard him shouting, "Where is Brother Qin who came in the afternoon? I'm back!"

"Upstairs, Captain." Sanchez's head was buzzing because of the noise, and he covered his ears and pointed upstairs.

"Hurry up and go to Baiweiju to order a table. I must treat Brother Qin to a meal, and it will also be a banquet for our fire suppression team!"

"Hey, Captain, have you found the last person?"

"Of course, with Brother Qin's name, how can you be afraid of not being able to recruit people!"

Zhao Lei's face was full of wrinkles when he smiled.

The fire suppression team has been looking for the last two members for half a month, but unfortunately there has been no suitable manpower.

Unexpectedly, in an afternoon, the goal was achieved directly, and the team can set off at any time.

"Great! I'll go now!"

Sanchez left quickly, and Zhao Lei couldn't wait to rush upstairs, but he bumped into Su Mo on the stairs.

"Hello, Captain Zhao."

"Qin Yuan, we are all family members, so don't be polite to me, come downstairs quickly, I will definitely drink and chat with you tonight."

Zhao Lei was very generous, and Su Mo seemed like a person in comparison.

After pulling all the way to Baiweiju, Su Mo also figured out the current configuration of the fire suppression team.

Firepower: Zhao Lei, Torres, Sanchez

Scout: Merrick, Neil

Driver and assaulter: He Qin

This configuration is undoubtedly offensive, but it has obvious shortcomings in logistics and medical care.

"Now with the addition of Brother Qin, not only is there no worry about medical care, but the combat power has also increased greatly."

"Plus, we have also recruited an old mercenary who knows the habits of aliens very well. The probability of success of this mission has increased by at least 10%!"

Zhao Lei seemed extremely excited.

No wonder, medical soldiers and alien experts are recognized as two rare talents in Area C.

The fire suppression team was able to recruit two people within one day, which was definitely a dog shit luck. It would be difficult for this mission to fail.

"We're here, Baiweiju is in front!"

Located in the center of Area C, Baiweiju is the only restaurant in the entire area. It is booming and never lacks customers.

Fortunately, Zhao Lei arranged for people to book a table in advance, so the fire suppression team grabbed a private room.

After entering, Su Mo soon met the other four teammates.

Neil is a tall, thin white man with prominent cheekbones and a somewhat dull temperament.

He Qin and the newly joined Gao Ruoyun are both women with ordinary faces, which makes it difficult for people to leave a deep impression.

After a while, the food and drinks were served and everyone sat together.

Zhao Lei stood up first, cleared his throat, and with a gentle smile on his face, he introduced Su Mo and Gao Ruoyun one by one.

There is no need to say more about the three people who met during the day.

When Neil arrived, the white man looked dull, but his eyes were full of intelligence, "Dr. Qin, I will have to rely on you more in the future. I am going out to perform reconnaissance missions, and I feel a lot more at ease. I am afraid that one day I will not be here again." Be careful, there is no one reliable to treat you."

After everyone heard this, they all laughed, and the atmosphere became much more lively.

He Qin was sitting in the corner, smiling and waving to Su Mo: "Brother Qin, don't worry about my driving skills. I have won many awards in the women's category on earth."

Sumo nodded in response.

It was Gao Ruoyun's turn to introduce himself, but the foreigner didn't seem very interested.

"Don't worry, everyone. I am familiar with all the alien races in the Baiduan Mountains. It will save you a lot of trouble when the time comes."

After saying that, Gao Ruoyun sat down minding his own business.

Everyone who knew the inside story would not be surprised that Gao Ruoyun's team was almost completely wiped out in the Baiduan Mountains.

We have to walk again, no one knows what the outcome will be.

"Okay, let's get started. If nothing else happens, we can set off the day after tomorrow!"

Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.

Zhao Lei took over the conversation, and everyone sat down again. As they pushed cups and changed cups, the atmosphere became more and more heated.

After hearing that he could set off the day after tomorrow, Sumo was relieved and joined the fire suppression team's expedition banquet with peace of mind.

The next day.

As the captain, although Zhao Lei behaved very boldly, he did not forget his responsibilities and conducted ability tests on the newly joined Su Mo and Gao Ruoyun.

The test for medical competency is very simple.

Virtual Realm has long been deployed on the front lines, and medical capabilities can easily simulate any environment when entering the virtual space.

It only took half an hour for Su Mo to walk out with the highest 'A' level certification, almost making Zhao Lei look stupid.

"Brother, are you serious?"

Zhao Lei swallowed his saliva, "I'm not saying that if you have this ability, you can live comfortably in any territory you go to... No, if you have this ability, why do you want to leave the Tianyuan territory?"

"We are all here, does Captain Zhao still have any meaning in saying this?"

Su Mo's unexpected answer left Zhao Lei stunned, and he couldn't recover for several minutes.

Are there really mercenaries in Area C who don't seek wealth or a future?

After a while, Gao Ruoyun also walked out with ability identification, B-level alien cognition.

"Captain Zhao?"

Gao Ruoyun waved the qualification certificate in his hand and found that Zhao Lei still couldn't come to his senses, so he had to shout twice.

"Oh, oh, you're done?"

"Hey, Class B, that's pretty cool!"

Zhao Lei woke up from his dream, looked at the qualification certificate, and forced a forced smile on his face.

As a rare ability as famous as medical treatment, alien cognition is not just as simple as knowing alien information.

The identifyr needs to be able to think of the weaknesses of this type of alien race within ten seconds and provide specific countermeasures.

However, compared with Class B alien knowledge and Class A medical treatment, there is still a huge gap between the two.

After all, no matter which territory the latter goes to, he can 100% become a master.

The former can only be useful on the frontline battlefield at most.
