Just as Zero put on the Night G.o.d"s protective suit, he heard Feng"s scream. He shook his head and left the room.
Ever since the end of their last combat mission, everyone who returned to Asgard was rewarded with merit points. Pixel and Feng, these normal team members, received 50 merit points, while Anthony and Langken received 150. As for zero, it was a full 300 points.
In addition to the reward of three hundred merit points, he had also single-handedly exterminated nearly two-thirds of the members of the wolf bandits, including their leader and deputy.
Through this battle, he had acc.u.mulated another 7 points of evolution. Adding the points he had left before, it was only 10 points of evolution.
Looking back at the battle with the thieves, it was not easy at all. One could know that the points of evolution could be obtained through battle. However, with Zero"s current strength, the amount of evolution points he could get from killing people of the same level or even lower was very limited.
However, this was also normal. Otherwise, if he could obtain normal points by killing people lower than him, then wouldn"t those with higher strength be able to kill the remaining humans? After all, these were all experience points.
After that, Zero gave Ben"s lab two more blood samples. And these two times, zero again was not a free service. In order to obtain the blood of zero, he had paid a total of 0 200 merit points. The total of 500 merit points was already enough to go outside of the regular configuration. He could add a weapon system to it, or he could buy a house of 20 square meters at the edge of Asgard.
It"s just that for the current Zero, the regular equipment for the Doomhammer is already enough. As for the house, he doesn"t think there"s any need for that right now. As a result, those 500 merit points remained in his personal account.
Walking out of the room, he walked to the lounge and saw Feng Feng walking out as well. Maple went to the bathroom to wash, dejectedly, while Ma Pei came out fully armed. In the main hall, Sue came out from the kitchen with a simple breakfast and placed it on the dining table in the middle of the hall. She sensed the strange atmosphere in the hall and asked, "What"s wrong?"
Ma Pei was about to say something when Feng Feng, who came out of the washroom, suddenly rushed over and covered the big man"s mouth with one hand. Feng Zhaosu and Zero both laughed, "It"s nothing! Nothing happened! "
"Weird. Hurry up and eat breakfast. Once you"re done, go to the school field and a.s.semble. If there are no exceptions, Instructor Kalio should be announcing the completion of the graduation examination. " Su Wen said in a bad mood.
Zero put a piece of bread in his mouth and, listening to Sue"s words, suddenly realized that he had been in Asgard for two months. During these two months, Zero familiarized itself with the tacit understanding of the team battle and did not wait for Carrio"s sudden attack all the time. The head instructor of the new battalion, under Ben"s instruction, deliberately took care of Zero. Wherever Zero was, whatever he was doing, he would suddenly appear and attack him without a word.
All of this was naturally to train Zero"s ability to adapt. There was even a time when Zero, who was bathing in the dormitory, was suddenly attacked by Carrion. As a result, their dormitory"s bathroom had to be redecorated afterwards.
In the course of these two months, Callio could be said to be in a variety of ways. In addition, the attack on Zero also continued to increase in strength. From the very beginning, Kalio only attacked with his simple fists and kicks, but recently, the Chief Instructor had already used his abilities. As for Zero, he wasn"t able to beat him in one move, and it had become very difficult for him to defeat him in a short period of time.
Of course, in order to take care of Zero"s life, the Chief Military Instructor would not go all out. Otherwise, ten zeroes would not be his fault.
After finis.h.i.+ng their breakfast, the four of them went to the drill grounds. As the rays of sunlight from the background wall above Asgard shone brightly on the drill grounds, two or three soldiers left the dormitory and gathered on the drill grounds.
There weren"t many soldiers left, and the training in the new camp was nearing its end. Most of the new recruits had been eliminated. They were dispersed and redistributed among the other legions. There were also some who left the military system, engaged in other jobs, or took on the role of an ordinary mercenary.
But no matter what, the other soldiers who could still stay, had to continue with their training.
The remaining soldiers, including zeros, numbered a total of twenty-one. They were part of three squads, the Zero Windwalker, Anthony"s Pioneer, and Rankin"s Blaster.
Of the three squads, the Windwalker had the least manpower, only four. The Vanguard and the Blasting Master had six and eleven players respectively. However, in the later stages of the a.s.sessment, the Wind Treader, with the smallest number of people, had surpa.s.sed the other two teams and became the top of the new army camp.
The captain of the Wind Treader Squad was zero, and the four of them had all advanced their abilities, so the division of labor was very clear. Zero was in charge of scouting, infiltrating, and attacking the troops. Su and Feng, on the other hand, were on the left and right sides of Zero. They were responsible for further expansion of the battle as they cut into enemy positions. As for the last one, Ma pei, he would act as a meat s.h.i.+eld to attract fire and break through defenses if necessary.
This team had an average level of members and a clear division of labor. During several confrontations, the Windwalker had developed its own specialties, and just like its name, the four of them were like hurricanes as they swept across the battlefield, quickly attacking and disintegrating the enemy"s defensive line.
However, they weren"t without weaknesses, because the lack of manpower determined that the Wind Walkers wouldn"t be able to sustain a prolonged battle. The few of them could only use their terrifying explosive strength to decide who would win the battle.
Compared to the zero team, the vanguard team was more capable of multiple battles. Amongst this group of six, their captain Anthony acted as the commander and battlefield correspondent. After him were Luca, Bridget, and Gail. The three of them had advanced to the next level in the domain of fighting, and their close combat capabilities were not one bit inferior to that of Su Feng and Feng.
As for the other two, Betsy and Oram were long-range firepower users. The two of them were respectively a sniper expert and a master gunner. This duo was just enough to ensure that the vanguard team"s firepower would cover both sides.
It could be said that the overall strength of the vanguard team was much higher than that of the windwalker team. However, the team relied too much on Anthony as the center of the battle system, so the shortcomings were obvious. Anthony"s chains of consciousness were able to communicate without obstacle on the battlefield, which allowed Anthony to command the others. As for the others, they were also used to listening to Anthony"s commands. Therefore, the moment something happened to Anthony, the command system of this team would immediately collapse, forcing them to move from a group battle to a solo battle.
As for the last blaster, the team had the most people and the average level was also the lowest. Besides Rankin, there were only two soldiers left in the team: McGonagall and May. Rangers were a combination of Strength Enhancement, Firearm Specialization, and Agility Enhancement. They were versatile fighters on the battlefield. They could fight from a distance, but they could also fight in close combat. However, because of their comprehensive capabilities, they appeared to be lacking in characteristics and their potential for development was limited.
This profession was basically the most common profession chosen by the soldiers with limited potential to advance to the next rank.
As for the other members of the Blasting Master, they were soldiers with the ability of reaching the third step, while their strength was mainly boosted by firearms.
If this team had to choose one advantage, they would probably only have the advantage in numbers. In fact, the same applies to times of turmoil.
After the remaining three squads were a.s.sembled, Carrion and the other four instructors left the office and walked towards the drill grounds. The short but muscular instructor used his two small eyes to look coldly at everyone in front of him. Those who were swept by his gaze all had different reactions. The most miserable of them all was Zheng Xiafeng, who was still immersed in his morning dream. Suddenly feeling Instructor Kalio"s gaze, especially the sensitive part of his lower body, Feng"s raging flames immediately disappeared without a trace. This sudden feeling of heat and coldness made him very worried that some of his future physiological functions would be wasted just like that.
However, there was no reaction, at least, only zero response on the surface of the body. It wasn"t that Zero was much better than the others, it was just that he, who was already used to being ambushed by Kalio, was not moved by the instructor"s mere gaze.
"21 people, heh." Taking the tactical board the instructor handed over, after scanning through the remaining soldiers" basic information, Instructor Kalio let out a chuckle. Then he said, "Lucky lads, among the recruits that I"ve trained, you guys are the ones with the largest number of people left at this stage."
Hearing these words of praise, most of the people revealed smiles on their faces. "What are you laughing at!" To be able to leave so many people behind, it was only because of the team"s results that were used as the basis for the a.s.sessment. After throwing all of you onto the battlefield, I have already snickered while being able to return half of you. "
Hearing the chief instructor"s words, the smiling soldiers" expressions immediately stiffened. Then, they stopped smiling and stood straight.
Caelio was clearly very pleased with their performance. He nodded and said, "Listen." Your new recruit training is nearing its end. It can be said that the results of your three teams are almost the same. However, only one team would be able to graduate from the new camp. You didn"t mishear me. Hammer of Destruction is the one with the fewest number of people in Asgard, but at the same time, it is the most powerful army. This legion only needed the strongest soldiers, not even the second or third ranked teams. We only need the first place and the strongest team! "
"So, I have a graduation a.s.sessment mission." Instructor Kalio said unhurriedly, "I will send you to the former military base in three days." "If any team obtains the mission items that I requested and comes back alive, they will be able to obtain their graduation certificate from me!"
