Since I met Beyonce that day, I planned to use some funds to recruit soldiers after I came back from zero. To this end, he and Feng held a small meeting, at which others naturally did not object to the investment. After all, no company in the wilderness has its own army. A company without an army is like a tiger without teeth. Although horizon technology has several of their abilities, it is impossible to do everything in person.
So on the day of the meeting, zero issued a recruitment notice through asgat's command mission system. Soon, the ground building of horizon technology was crowded with applicants in the next few days.
To this end, zero mobilized everyone, and even EVA, a marginal man, was urgently called back from the laboratory. Several people, including zero, personally tested the physical fitness and other comprehensive qualities of the recruited soldiers. Because they were limited by funds, zero did not intend to recruit on a large scale this time. He intends to keep improving and screen these people in the next few days. In the end, only the best soldiers and strong generals will be left.
The first batch of soldiers, zero, will take them as the backbone and train them to become generals and officials of follow-up soldiers.
In this way, the test is naturally extremely strict. The old, the weak and the disabled do not need it, the abuse of psychotropic drugs do not need it, and those who are physically unqualified do not need it. After testing and inspection one by one, almost one in a hundred has passed the test.
Five days later, the recruitment was completed. A total of 300 soldiers were able to stay through the basic threshold. These soldiers were young, strong and energetic. Although most of them are ordinary people, a few have basic abilities ranging from first-order to third-order. To zero's surprise, there are two people with advanced ability.
They are a sixth level gun master and a fifth level night messenger.
The former is called hawk brown, a white European. Nearly thirty years old, as strong as a bear. His muscles are as strong as iron. Because the gun master is a heavy firearm, Brown's arms are particularly strong and have a tattoo on his arms. It was the pattern of a dagger stabbing into the skull. The dagger was still bleeding and looked very ferocious.
Another capable person is a woman named Yelu, an Asian race. Yelu is not tall, only 1.67 meters. But her figure was very full. When she came to apply for the job that day, she almost caused a series of bloodshed. Under the age of 20, her natural look aroused some strange uncle Lori's desire to control. But the natural girl was very difficult to provoke. After learning that she was a dark night Messenger, the color wolves who stretched out their claws obediently put away their color hearts.
The dark night messenger is a person with cross domain ability, which is achieved by the basic ability of fighting domain and element domain. Those with interdisciplinary abilities are extremely demanding on talents. For example, lain encountered before zero. His Hurricane swordsman first requires affinity of wind elements. Without this talent, lain can never become a hurricane swordsman.
The talent requirement of the dark night messenger of Yelu is the affinity of dark elements. In this way, she has achieved her frightening career in the dark.
Night messengers have the ability to hide in the night. It is true invisibility. Different from zero shadow wanderers, they constantly make space like jumps in the shadow with the help of light and environment. The invisibility of the night messenger is hidden together with all the relevant information of his own existence. Only those who have the talent in the perception domain in the ability of hunch can see through the existence of the night messenger in advance.
Otherwise, those with other abilities will only find the dagger handed from the dark at the moment of the night messenger's attack.
Zero was flattered by the arrival of these two capable people. After all, a newly established company like him has no conditions to attract people with advanced ability to join. Therefore, when zero talked to them privately afterwards and asked why he chose a company like them to join, zero got two different answers.
Brown's reason is relatively simple. The European man originally belonged to the same mercenary regiment as bourdon. But in one mission, Bodong betrayed them, resulting in the almost total destruction of the whole mercenary regiment. Almost because Brown survived. Only then he suffered a serious injury. After a long period of recuperation and recovery, brown found that his ability decreased. But bourdon has become the bodyguard leader of the lambston family. Brown can't compete with bourdon in terms of ability and power, so he stays in asgatri and looks for opportunities.
Unexpectedly, brown hasn't found a chance to start, but Bodong died in the hands of zero. When he heard the news, Brown was drunk for three days and nights. After that, as soon as he heard the news of zero recruitment, he came without thinking.
Brown was a rough and forthright man. He patted zero on the shoulder and said, "anyway, I'll follow you in the future, head. You killed Bodong and avenged our dead partners. My life will be yours in the future!"
Zero is glad to have a character like brown join. In this way, with a belien, zero's team will have battery characters in the fields of energy and physics.
As for Yeliu, he gave zero a sad answer.
Yelu is not from asgat. She is an adventurer. The so-called adventurer is a person who wanders alone in the wilderness without any team support. Such people are either crazy or strong. From the ability of Yelu, it should be the latter. Yelu was wandering in the wilderness. She happened to see a lot of people coming towards zero technology base. She thought there were places like relics, so she quietly followed.
I didn't want to come to zero company, but I gave the receptionist as a candidate. Then I gave Yelu a brand name regardless of what happened. Yelu also gave full play to her natural nature, passed a series of tests in such a muddle headed way, and finally became what she is now.
Looking at the night Ryu with a dull expression on his face, he was silent. However, when zero asked if he wanted to leave, Yelu wanted to stay. The reason was that he wandered in the wilderness for two years. If he stayed longer, he was afraid he would become an idiot.
Zero heart agrees. I'm afraid Yelu's natural appearance is caused by a long-term lack of communication with people.
Just how could such a girl become an adventurer, and there was a strange pattern like a family emblem on the back of Yelu's hand. Zero thought that there was a story of her own behind the girl. Zero naturally has no gossip to find out. He respects everyone's privacy, especially his companions.
Of course, whether Yelu and Brown can become zero and entrust their backs to their companions needs further investigation.
Years of wilderness life, early let zero learn not to easily believe the truth of others.
In addition to the two, a few days later, there was another girl in the zero team. The girl named Haiwei, the survivor found at z7 base, was brought back to asgat by zero and asked zero to arrange for training in the training camp of the Youth Corps. This youth camp is specially opened for boys and girls over the age of 15 with special talents. Agatha, who died in the war, came from this youth camp. In addition, the people in the twelve main shrines, including varkiri, also came from the youth camp.
Therefore, for asgat, the youth camp is a place for brewing hope.
Haiwei has to undergo a three-month training in the youth camp. It's far from the time of graduation. But the girl was smart and eager to learn. She completed all the courses in only more than a month, so she got special care and graduated early. After graduation, Haiwei can participate in the recruitment assessment of the five legions, but she chose to join the zero company and give up the brighter future.
According to Haiwei's words, without zero, there would be no her now. Besides, she prefers the adventurous life in the wilderness to the medium-sized military career.
In terms of ability, Haiwei's growth is also very gratifying. At present, she has evolved three basic abilities: power, defense and agility, which meet the basic conditions for the transformation to an advanced class. He is not a full member of the five major legions. He needs to pay a lot of money if he wants to use directional modulator for career transformation. Originally zero intended to pay the fee for her, but Haiwei refused. This delicate girl is as strong and strong as men.
Haiwei said that she wanted to earn the expenses needed for the transformation through her own efforts. Since it was her own decision, zero had never opposed it. But then again, even without transformation, Haiwei also has strong strength. In addition to some fighting skills Johnny taught her before, she also found an ancient boxing in the information database through the wisdom of the youth camp.
The fighting skill called "kickboxing" is called boxing, but in fact it is a kind of leg skill. This skill requires the warrior to use both hands to attack the enemy, enter the defense and unload the power, and then fight back with a strong kick. It can be described as a skill integrating attack and defense. Haiwei has suffered a lot in order to learn this set of boxing, and now it has begun to take shape. Feng also praised it after trying it himself. He pointed out that when Haiwei grows to a high-level stage, it can be used to fight with opponents of the same level without losing the wind.
In general, Haiwei's potential is not low. After a while, she should also be a strong woman who can stand on her own. Zero intended to cultivate her, so he arranged her in his recruit camp so that Haiwei could receive the next training together.
As for daily life, he lived with Yelu. The two girls are of the same age, but their personalities are completely opposite. Night Ryu is a natural stay, usually stunned time is far more than activity. Haiwei seems to have endless energy, jumping all day, as if she can't stop. But the two of them got along well, and accompanied by Haiwei, Yelu spoke more and more.
In this way, the zero army began to take shape. There are 287 ordinary soldiers, 11 with first-order to third-order abilities, brown and Yelu with advanced abilities, and finally a Haiwei. After the members of the army were determined, zero set a series of training plans for them, including physical fitness, shooting, fighting, reconnaissance, blasting and so on.
Among them, zero attaches great importance to physical fitness. If you fight in the wilderness, no matter how excellent your other skills are, the probability of surviving is still not high. On the contrary, if you have vigorous physical fitness and a variety of skills, even an ordinary person can struggle to survive in the dangerous wilderness. Therefore, before dawn every day, the recruits will be picked up from their beds, and the daily training starts from running around the base for 30 laps.
This is the basic amount of training. At the same time, it will add weight to them as appropriate to squeeze out every drop of their potential. Of course, those who can't bear it will inevitably be eliminated.
After the run, there was a short break and breakfast, and the recruits had to take a variety of training the next day. In these trainings, zero is always with them. What recruits should do, zero also does, and the amount will only be more than them, not less than them. Zero understands the truth of taking the lead. Only when he receives training with the soldiers and rushes to the front in battle, will such commanders be respected by the soldiers and let them work for you.
Like the old men who command the war situation in the secure fortifications in the rear, they often give orders together, and the soldiers' executive power is usually compromised. Moreover, in the new era, the military courage of generals will often stimulate the morale of an army, which is something that no clever rear commander can do.
As time went by, the recruits were exhausted by the heavy amount of training every day. In this process, many soldiers could not bear this amount of training and chose to quit. Zero did not blame them, but paid them enough to leave on their own.
Of course, there are also some guys who don't know good or bad. They are comfortable and tortured by training to lose their reason. Instead of obeying the arrangement, they made provocative remarks. For such people, zero usually breaks his leg and throws it back to asgat. Afterwards, these people were afraid and had to thank zero for his kindness. Yes, it's kindness. You know, in other wilderness companies, if you dare to contradict your superiors like this, you should be aware of being killed.
In contrast, zero just breaks hands and feet, gives them a lesson, and doesn't leave them in the dangerous wilderness, which itself is a kind of transmission.
Two months later, the new barracks dropped sharply from the original 300 people to about 100, which is not far from the goal of zero expectation. Soldiers who can survive almost harsh training and stay will not die easily in future battles at least. The ruthlessness of the battlefield is dozens of times higher than zero. What zero is doing now is for their good.
Among these soldiers, Haiwei is undoubtedly the most concerned one. Although Haiwei has three level 4 basic abilities, she will participate in other training in addition to the normal amount of training every day. Originally, the soldiers didn't take the delicate girl to heart, but two months later, Haiwei has won a certain degree of respect among them.
They jokingly called Haiwei "steel girl", but the soldiers never thought that this occasional nickname would be widely spread in the wilderness in the future.
During this time, Dr. Victor also came to the base several times. In addition to reporting the progress of Leah's rebirth to zero who has no time to return to asgat, it also brought some newly developed genetic drugs. The development of pharmaceutical is also one of the original intentions of zero to set up this laboratory. After all, Victor's talents and laboratory equipment are only used for Leah's rebirth, which is somewhat wasteful. Therefore, zero had instructed Victor to prepare the development of various drugs in the middle and late stage of the rebirth plan.
Obviously, Victor did a good job in this regard. With the support of asgat's advanced equipment, Dr. Victor's previous ideas have been supported. Of course, limited by the scale and equipment of the laboratory, what Victor can do at present is to develop genetic agents.
Gene medicament is different from ability medicament. Its function is to release the potential in genes and improve the physical fitness and physical quality of the injector, but it can not urge the ability. To develop ability potions, even the most common basic ability potions, he needs additional funds and equipment, but he can't afford it now.
The rebirth plan is going well. Now Leah's clone has begun to progress in memory writing and character shaping. Doctor Victor said that at the latest two months later, zero will be able to see the reborn Leah.
This makes zero a little excited. He finally wants to realize the promise he made for Leah that day.
Thanks to Dr. Victor's genetic medicine, the physical quality of the streamlined soldiers at least doubled after injection. Of course, this refers to ordinary soldiers. As for those with ability, they can't use these drugs at all.
In addition, zero's arsenal has also received orders in the past two months. And zero himself also equipped each of the hundreds of soldiers with a dark blood rifle and some ammunition. This is still limited by the size and development capacity of the arsenal, otherwise zero can configure its own army with more powerful weapons. Only powerful equipment can ensure that these soldiers can survive in the cruel battlefield.
But at the same time, zero finally felt why some people said that training an army was like burning money. If we say that although we invested a lot of money in the establishment of the former Arsenal, at least now we have slowly seen the return. However, more money is invested in the establishment of the army. Soldiers' food, housing, medical treatment, training and equipment are not used.
Two months later, the army took shape, and less than half of the money on the zero account also flowed out. Now he only hopes that Beyonce's slave arrest plan will be carried out as soon as possible, but before that, zero will have to use this army for a real combat drill to test the real combat power of this army, so as to avoid finding the shortcomings on the battlefield. It will be too late to mend.
As for the content of the exercise, zero does not intend to divide the army into two according to the traditional method and use simulation equipment for review. In this way, the authenticity will be greatly reduced. After all, some things can only appear when life and death pass. Therefore, zero took the opportunity to return to asgat and took over a task to eliminate alien riots in the mission system of the headquarters.
The mission code is "Dongshou"!
