Starting from Uchiha Obito
Chapter 56 Undercurrent
Once the dominoes start to fall, they will not stop unless there is external intervention. Unfortunately, the people of the Holy Empire did not wait for this external force. Within one day, the Dragon Kingdom’s army completely eliminated all the people of the Holy Empire who were found. During this period, Wang Jie’s clone attracted two attempts by the Holy Empire. They were all suicide actions of low-level professionals. The second one who came in was even a suicide bomber. The modern explosive technology combined with the professional skills was powerful, but unfortunately, only Wang Jie’s shadow clone was taken away.
At this time, the power of the Holy Empire in the secret realm had been eliminated. Wang Jie's body and large forces quickly guarded the entrance to the secret realm. The enemy's fifth-level strongman never appeared, and Wang Jie instead received orders from Dragon City.
"Is that so? The war is over then?" Wang Jie was just a small soldier, but because of his irreplaceable and extraordinary military exploits in this battle, he was also qualified to personally take a look at the orders sent from Longcheng.
In general, the Holy Empire negotiated with the Dragon Kingdom at the national level. After a little tug-of-war, the two sides determined that the Dragon Kingdom had control over the newly opened secret realm and promised not to go to the Holy Empire through the secret realm passage. At the same time, the fifth-level strongman who fought with the mayor of Shanhai City, Yan Xingbang, was able to return to the Holy Empire smoothly and avoided the fate of being beaten to death.
To be honest, Wang Jie was a little surprised by this ending. Many people died in the fight between the two sides. The people left in the secret realm here from the Holy Empire were at least 10, and this was still a conservative estimate. How could such a deep hatred be resolved through negotiation so quickly? It couldn't be that all these high-level professionals were pariahs over there? Didn't a prince die? Wang Jie was a little confused.
"You will understand when you reach the fourth level. Let's talk business, Comrade Wang Jie. I, Wang Jingguo, represent the Dragon Army to formally invite you to join the big family of the army. If you agree, you will be directly awarded the rank of second lieutenant. Your military status will not have any impact on you in peacetime, but in wartime you must unconditionally obey the country's instructions and fight to defend the homeland of mankind. At the same time..."
Wang Jingguo, a special envoy from Longcheng, his professional rank is unclear, but since he was able to come to Shanhai City from Longcheng alone, he is most likely a fifth-rank person.
This is a middle-aged man who looks older than Wang Chengjun. He has a resolute face and stands like a strong pine tree. He gives people the same feeling as the soldier in Wang Jie's previous life. The professional equipment he wears looks like standard equipment, but Wang Jie is not sure. After all, soldiers in this world do not have military uniforms. It is a basic quality of a professional to carry equipment with him at all times. Otherwise, he will be at a great disadvantage if there is any emergency.
"Uh~ I'll join in."
Wang Jie definitely had no objection to joining the army. The army in this world would not gather soldiers in one place for long-term training. The daily task of a soldier was to freely improve his own strength. During this period, many soldiers deliberately tried to get close to Wang Jie. He had already inquired about the situation after joining the army.
First of all, there is generous treatment. It's not just money, but more importantly, there are some things that are basically not circulated outside the army, such as experience balls, which are rationed and distributed annually according to the rank of the military officer. There are also some special treasures, which are not the ordinary stuff that can be bought with money outside. They need to be taken for a long time to increase physical fitness. Instead, they are high-end stuff that can add to attribute points immediately after eating. There are not many of these things in the wild, but they are dropped by BOSS.
Then there is the special status, which means that you don’t have to pay any taxes! Every time Wang Jie enters and exits the secret realm, he has to pay money, which is actually a kind of tax. Moreover, he can only enjoy the right to enter and exit the secret realm in Shanhai City. If he changes to another city, he will not be allowed to enter without the approval of the local city hall. The local government in this world has more power than Wang Jie in his previous life, and local protectionism is of course more serious.
In this post-apocalyptic world, every large city is built on the basis of one or several secret realms with controllable buffer zones. These places where one can easily find a large number of first- and second-level monsters at the entrance and exit of the secret realms and where high-level monsters do not appear randomly are all precious resources and are an absolute necessity to ensure the continuous cultivation of professionals.
Every bit of experience gained by professionals from other places is meat dug out from the mouths of local professionals. When danger comes, local talents are the first to rely on to establish a line of defense. If there are no restrictions, good resources will be occupied by outsiders. When there is danger, will it be the locals or outsiders who rush to the front line first?
Under the guidance of this general consensus, it is conceivable how difficult it is to change cities to level up. This is also the reason why Wang Jie had no choice in the leveling location after giving up the Endless Plains, forcing him to buy a skill that increases defense. Theoretically, there are countless entrances and exits to secret realms on Earth, but the controllable ones are actually limited, and the ones that people in Shanhai City can enter are even more limited.
But after becoming a soldier, you can enter and exit all secret realms freely without paying any fees, because becoming a professional soldier means that you are responsible for the security of the entire Dragon Kingdom, and naturally you can also enjoy the resources of the entire Dragon Kingdom.
Finally, of course, it’s responsibility, or easy work and free time.
In non-wartime, the army will not assign too many tasks to soldiers. The most they can do is to support dangerous places. In recent decades, they may not send out troops every three to five years across the country, and each time they only support a few nearby places. That is after the city managers think they can't bear it anymore and declare a state of war. For this Shanhai City crisis, the city hall has announced a third-level combat readiness so far, and it is still too early to enter a state of war. The soldiers who came are basically local, and Wang Jingguo is the only soldier from outside the city.
As for what is wartime? Anyway, those who talked to Wang Jie said that they have never encountered it in their lives.
So to sum up, joining the army in this world means high pay, little work, close to home, less work and more rewards, and Wang Jie really can't find a reason to refuse.
"According to general regulations, new recruits will receive a week of training. However, given your age and rank, your training will be delayed until you are 18 years old and promoted to the fourth rank. On behalf of the Central Military Commission, I now grant you the rank of second lieutenant."
There was no ceremony. In this tent with only two people, Wang Jie completed his medal ceremony and became a soldier.
At the same time, people were talking about Wang Jie in two places in this world. One of them was the capital of the Holy Empire - the Pope's Palace.
"Alsalia, this little guy should be the opponent you met that day. I didn't expect that he is the same age as you. It seems that those pagans still have some good points." The Pope handed a piece of information in his hand to a figure sitting on the holy fire.
"Humph, he just had some kind of adventure in his childhood that made him become a professional earlier than me. I will wait for him in the Kingdom of God after I reach level 5. I hope he doesn't die too early." Alsalia took the intelligence data made of unknown material, quickly read it, and replied unconvinced.
"Of course. However, in three years' time will be the open day that happens every sixty years. If everything goes as expected, he will have a seat among the representatives of the Dragon Country this time. You'll have to work harder if you want revenge." The Pope took the information from Alsalia and looked seriously at the girl who was sitting on the holy fire with an unfazed expression.
"Yes, Your Holiness, please increase the gift of God. I can handle it."
In addition to the Holy Empire's capital, there is another place in the mayor's office in Shanhai City, but the two people talking this time were communicating remotely through equipment.
"Rod, my old friend, it's not that I don't want to help you. You are also very clear about the situation in our country. As the mayor, I have no right to mobilize soldiers in principle. Wang Jingguo has already invited him to join the army. Unless he has a brain tumor and refuses, I really can't help you with this." Yan Xingbang, the mayor of Shanghai, spoke to the crystal ball in front of him with an embarrassed look on his face. The figure of an East Asian was reflected in the crystal ball.
"Of course I know the situation over there, but you all know that not all problems can be solved openly. I believe that my small request will not be difficult for you. I recently discovered a new mineral vein here. I can increase the supply of the goods you need by 20% next year."
"No, things are not as simple as you think. The suspect you have identified has shown extraordinary potential this time. To put it bluntly, if you throw me and the suspect off the cliff together, those old guys up there will definitely save him and won't care about a so-called fifth-level person like me who has no potential at all. And you know that the next Boundary Breaking Day is coming soon. If nothing unexpected happens, the suspect is one of the designated contestants. If something happens to him in my jurisdiction, I will be in trouble beyond your imagination." Upon hearing that the supply would increase by 20%, Yan Xingbang was obviously tempted for a moment, but soon reason overcame greed.
"No, no, no my old friend, nothing will happen to him in your jurisdiction. I have a perfect plan, such as..."
No one knew about the conversations in these two places except the parties involved, and Wang Jie naturally didn't know either. After becoming a soldier, he was promoted to level up three times in a row with his first monthly salary. After using up some of his skill points, he took a good rest for two days, and then he couldn't wait to start the leveling process. This time his choices were much wider.
There is communication between cities in Dragon Country, but most people will not leave their own city for leveling up. These teams shuttling between cities are usually professionals who have some strength but know they have no hope of reaching level 4. Of course, there are also low-level professionals who are not suited to combat. The main purpose is to exchange goods. Of course, there are also a few stupid people who are willing to travel in such an environment.
Wang Jie was in such a tour group. It was not that he wanted to travel, but there was only such a group departing for the destination he had chosen recently. There was no GPS and no wireless network. Wang Jie, who was going out for the first time, did not want to get lost and had to join the group.
