Chapter 422 Merit System

Late at night, everyone went offline one after another.

Drink porridge.

Lin Che was a little excited and said, "I just heard someone inside Yueheng leaked a little news that a new version is about to be launched."

"Oh, what version?" I asked with a smile.

"It seems to be about merit and military rank."

"It's finally coming."

I stretched my arms and leaned on the sofa, saying, "I've heard about it too. It seems that merit determines the level of military rank, and military rank determines the upper limit of the number of people in the team."

"Yes, it is said to be very important."

Su Xiran asked, "Is there any news about the specific time of opening?"

"Within three days, I guess there will be a notice tomorrow."

"Yeah!"

"Eat, eat, and go to bed early after eating."

"Okay!"

...

The next morning, the weather in December was cold and gloomy. I put on a slightly thick sportswear and took Lin Che, Su Xiran, and Xu Jiacheng out for a run, woke up Wang Jinhai and Zhang Wei, had breakfast, and went online.

Heading to the north of Dragon Domain, I quickly brushed S1 three times in the morning, which took a total of 40 minutes, much faster than before when the combat power was poor. With a golden light, I reached level 118, only two levels away from the level 120 fourth-turn mark. Looking at the rankings, the first level of Bailu City will still be between Tang Yun and Feiyue, and it is difficult for other professional players to compete with them.

In recent days, everyone has been frantically brushing monsters and leveling up. It seems that the national server is not far from entering the era of level 120.

Near noon, a bell rang through the sky——

"Ding!"

System announcement: All players please note that the [Military Merit] system will be open in one hour. All players are requested to log off immediately. The server will be open on time at 13:00 in the afternoon, and all version information related to [Military Merit] will be opened!

The bell echoed three times in a row, notifying everyone.

Su Xiran immediately sent a message: "Our lunch has just arrived. Team Ding went offline to eat, and when we went online, the merit system was almost open."

"OK!"

In the studio, everyone went offline. The lunch was quite rich, so Lin Che went to get beer, one can per person, and said with a smile: "Everyone will probably start to brush merits and military ranks in the afternoon. Come, drink some celebratory wine first, and then work hard in the afternoon to make the first marshal of the national server appear in our Beichen!"

Su Xiran was surprised: "The details of the merits are out?"

"Yes, it is announced on the official website."

I hurriedly opened my phone and opened the Tianxing app. Sure enough, there were eight big words "Glorious military exploits, competing for the world" on the homepage. Clicking on it was the merit system, and all the details of the military rank system were presented in front of me-

Sergeant lv-14: Main attribute increased by 5%, team members 10, merit value required:? ? ?

Sergeant lv-13: Main attribute increased by 10%, team members 15, merit value required:? ? ?

Ji Wei lv-12: main attribute increased by 15%, team size 20, required merit value: ? ? ?

Ling Yu Xiao lv-11: main attribute increased by 20%, team size 50, required merit value: ? ? ?

Xiao Qi Xiao lv-10: main attribute increased by 25%, team size 80, required merit value: ? ? ?

Zhen Xin Xiao lv-9: main attribute increased by 30%, team size 100, required merit value: ? ? ?

Brigadier General lv-8: main attribute increased by 35%, team size 150, required merit value: ? ? ?

Yang Wei Jiang lv-7: main attribute increased by 40%, team size 200, required merit value: ? ? ?

Long Xiang Jiang lv-6: main attribute increased by 45%, team size 250, required merit value: ? ? ?

Pian Jiangjun lv-5: main attribute increased by 50%, team size 300, required merit value: ? ? ?

Border Guard Commander lv-4: Main attribute increased by 55%, team size 400, required merit value: ? ? ?

Ranger General lv-3: Main attribute increased by 60%, team size 500, required merit value: ? ? ?

National Defense General lv-2: Main attribute increased by 65%, team size 1000, required merit value: ? ? ?

General lv-1: Main attribute increased by 70%, team size 2000, required merit value: ? ? ?

Marshal lv-0: Main attribute increased by 75%, team size 3000, required merit value: ? ? ?

…

There are fifteen ranks in total, from sergeant to marshal, which are very clear, and each rank provides a very considerable attribute bonus. Another use is the number of people in the team. Once the merit system is opened, the number of players in the team will exceed the current 10-person team limit, which also means that the team battle form is about to change. Once the team buff skills like the famous general skills in "Tian Zong" appear, it will completely change the group PK mode.

"Only improve the main attribute, what does it mean?" I asked.

Lin Che smiled and said: "It is the main attribute of a profession. For example, the swordsman improves the attack power, the spiritualist improves the spiritual attack, the wandering fairy doctor improves the healing ability, and the knight seems to improve the attack power. All the main attributes are basically biased towards output."

"This is equivalent to weakening defense and strengthening attack."

I frowned and said: "I am afraid that the future pattern will have fewer and fewer protracted battles, and more and more crushing battles, right?"

"Yes."

Wang Jinhai nodded: "In fact, we don't need to worry about so much, just work hard to level up, raise the rank level, and then... who can stop our Beichen Army?"

"That's what I said..."

I smiled slightly and raised my beer: "Drink, we will work hard after we go online!"

"Yeah!"

Lin Che said: "Brother Chen, it seems that killing ordinary wild monsters does not increase merits, only killing camp monsters can increase merits, that is to say, in Bailu City, more than 90% of the maps do not give merits, only killing units from the three major forces of Purgatory, Demon Realm, and Abyss can give merits. In the afternoon, I plan to take the guild to Julu City to brush the Demon Nest in the north of the Crystal Fortress."

"Okay."

I nodded and smiled: "I will continue to mix alone, the monster brushing efficiency is high, brush directly in the North Territory."

"It should be."

Su Xiran smiled dimples: "You are the head of Beichen. Once the rank system is opened, everyone will look at your rank. You must be higher than everyone else and set an example."

"Alexander..." I was speechless.

She couldn't help but smile: "If they are too tired, take them for a massage. Don't you know that... technician number? It doesn't matter, I agree this time."

My old face turned red: "Damn, Xiran, who do you think we are? Xiaoche, are you right? Are we that kind of people?"

"That's right!"

Lin Che rolled up his sleeves: "Then when are we going?"

"Get lost~~~"

...

After eating and drinking, Su Xiran boiled water with the tea set in the studio and made some tea for everyone. After each person drank two or three cups, the time was almost up, go online!

"Shua!"

Appeared in Bailu City, as expected, the military rank system has appeared, and there are several items at the bottom of my attribute panel, one of which is military rank.

Combat power: 22447

Military rank: None

Arena level: Strongest King

...

Well, I clicked on the military rank system and saw that the current merit is 0, and to reach a higher rank, you must get merit.

Understood, let's go!

After replenishing potions and repairing equipment, he took out the dragon crystal and used it directly. He came to the Dragon City Hall and walked straight into the command hall. Mingyuechi was lazily leaning on the desk, with his face tilted and one hand raised. The energy was surging and gathered into a dimensional ball, constantly changing, and the power surged, illuminating the surrounding space.

"Yuechi."

"You are here?" She smiled and sat up, regaining the dignity and grace of a dragon speaker.

I walked forward, nodded, and said, "I'm here to ask for a mission. Are there any missions to the North?"

"For now... no."

She blinked and said, "But if you are willing to contribute to Dragon City, you can go to the Lost Plains and kill some Purgatory Knights. After the hearts of Purgatory Knights have been trained, they may be able to form Purgatory Magic Crystals. You bring these magic crystals back to me, the more the better. I will use these Purgatory Magic Crystals to exchange for gold coins and more supplies from the profiteers in Dragon City Town."

"Okay, I understand!"

"Ding!"

System prompt: You have accepted the mission [Collect Purgatory Magic Crystals] (A-level★)!

...

Although it is only a one-star A-level mission, it is bound to be very profitable because it is an unlimited collection. It just so happens that I am in the leveling period, and I can level up while rushing for merit and doing missions. It is simply killing three birds with one stone!

Summoning the Cold Iron Horse, it turned into an indigo light and left Dragon City, directly entering the Lost Plains in the north.

Snow fluttered, and not far away, a familiar roar came from the front. Several giant-mouthed ghosts scattered in the snow were cruising, with their mouths wide open, wandering aimlessly on the wasteland.

Kill!

With a "swish", the flying cavalry rushed over, breaking through obstacles, and almost every sword hit a damage number of nearly 10,000 points. After several critical hits, the arms suddenly surged with heavy power, pierced the body of the giant-mouthed ghost with a sword, and lifted it up. The pick-cut was triggered successfully. At this time, a slight bell sounded in my ear--

"Ding!"

Combat Tips: Congratulations on successfully killing [Giant-mouthed Ghost] and gaining 30 points of merit!

...

Only 30 points?

Glancing at the rank panel, in order to obtain the first-level rank "First-level Sergeant", you must get 200 points of merit, and there are still a few points left.

Continue to kill, after killing seven giant-mouthed ghosts in a row, a pleasant bell sounded again in my ears——

"Ding!"

System prompt: Congratulations on reaching the rank [First-level corporal], hidden main attribute increased by 0.5%!

Frowning, each rank is divided into first to ninth levels, each level increases 0.5% attack power, after reaching the tenth level, a total increase of 5%, and then enter the next level of rank, the legendary sergeant, it seems that the rank system is not so easy to upgrade, you need to work harder to kill monsters and level up every day to achieve the legendary marshal.

A closer look shows that it takes 7,000 merit points to upgrade from a first-level corporal to a second-level corporal. Therefore, if you actually want to upgrade from a corporal to a sergeant, you have to kill more than 2,000 giant-mouthed ghosts. This is only the first level of rank. You can imagine how difficult it will be in the later stage. Take your time.

I continued forward, deep into the Lost Plains. Although this was Camille's territory and she saw me as a thorn in her side, there was a lot of money to be made, and I had to risk my life to get here! Unconsciously, a fire was burning in my heart!

I want to become a general guarding the country! I want to become a general! I want to become one of the few marshals in the Chinese theater!

If you have a dream, work hard to realize it!

In an instant, I felt that the giant-mouthed ghosts all looked handsome.
