“Leader, are my reward points really this much?” Lin Xinghai asked in disbelief after he had finished reading the entire list.
“Don’t play coy after getting a bargain.” Xu Haishui said sourly from the side.
The points he was rewarded were less than one-tenth of Lin Xinghai’s.
“Of course, there’s no mistake. This has been verified twice.” Fang Tianhe said with a smile.
“How many points did you get then?” Lin Xinghai couldn’t help but ask.
Fang Tianhe replied, “10,300 points.”
“This… To be honest, I don’t think my contribution was greater than yours. If it wasn’t for you using your abilities to pave the way in the Spaceship Research Institute, we couldn’t have escaped at all.” Lin Xinghai said truthfully.
Although the points were tempting, he planned to stay with the Sky Fracture Mercenary Group for a good while. If he stirred up resentment and jealousy among the other mercenaries, it would be a case of a gain not worth the cost.
“Haha, that’s because I’m the leader. Protecting you all is part of my duty. Stepping up at a critical moment is what’s expected of me. As for you, despite being an ordinary member, you heavily injured the Blood Fiend, enabling our escape. Therefore, it’s only right that you receive extra rewards.”
“If in the future, you hold a position like a captain or something higher within the mercenary group and make the same level of contribution, then the additional rewards won’t be as much.”
“Of course, your salary and benefits later are not comparable to what you have now.” Fang Tianhe explained.
“The higher the position, the greater the responsibility.” Shen Han on the side concluded.
Lin Xinghai nodded, gaining a new understanding of the system within the Sky Fracture Mercenary Group.
After Lin Xinghai confirmed there were no issues with the list, Fang Tianhe asked him to take out his ID card and hand it over to the finance department.
Moments later, 19,800 points were transferred from the Sky Fracture Mercenary Group’s official account to his ID card.
From this moment on, Lin Xinghai could also be considered a little rich man.
Lin Xinghai checked with his wrist computer and found out that he had 24,132 points in his account.
“Also, since you have a Grade B genetic assessment and such excellent marksmanship, from now on, you are the most important talent to be nurtured under our Sky Fracture Mercenary Group.”
“Based on our internal decision, you will be given 20 vials of genetic serum for one week.” Fang Tianhe said. He got someone to take out a row of genetic serums and place it in front of Lin Xinghai.
The row of genetic serums was so enticing that Xu Haishui, who was standing beside the table, looked at it with great envy.
“Put away your drool. With your Grade D genetic assessment, even if you had all these genetic serums, how many vials could you absorb in a week?” Wu Yan’s words came from the side.
“If you keep quiet, no one will think you’re mute!” Xu Haishui snapped back through gritted teeth.
When he turned his head back, Lin Xinghai had already pocketed all the genetic serums.
Next, under the lead of Fang Tianhe, the group left the headquarters and headed towards the upper district.
Of course, the term “group” here referred to members of captain rank and above, plus Lin Xinghai.
Most of the mercenaries were envious of this, but they were not jealous.
On the one hand, it was because of Lin Xinghai’s Grade B genetic assessment; on the other hand, it was because of his amazing marksmanship talent.
It probably won’t take long for such a talent to become a captain.
The group arrived at the elevator shaft and headed to the upper district.
As the elevator doors opened, Lin Xinghai saw that, apart from a robot, there was also a fully armed soldier stationed there.
Access to the upper district was more strictly controlled. No one could simply get here by paying 10 points. Instead, an application had to be made and approved before gaining access to the upper district.
For an ordinary person, the review process alone would probably take a day or two.
Of course, mercenaries had privileges, especially those from well-recorded mercenary groups. They had access to a fast track with the authentication process to be completed in just 5 minutes.
“Please present your personal ID card.” The robot said in a synthesized electronic voice.
Everyone took out their ID cards. After each card was scanned and authenticated, the soldier allowed them to pass.
The layout of the upper district was not much different from the middle district. However, compared to the middle district, the buildings here were much more grand and larger in scale.
This was because all the important research institutions of the entire shelter were located in the upper district.
And the place where they intended to purchase mechas was the Mecha Research Institute.
This was a building covering an area of more than 2,000 square meters.
Such a building might not amount to much on the surface, but in a shelter, every square meter of space was incredibly valuable. A 2000-square-meter building was indeed quite exaggeratedly large within the confines of the shelter.
Under the leadership of Fang Tianhe, everyone walked into the open door, where a row of staff was waiting.
The service staff immediately greeted the group warmly.
“Hello, welcome to the Mecha Research Institute. Are you here to visit the place or purchase mecha?” The pretty waitress asked.
“We’re here to purchase mecha!” Fang Tianhe’s answer was concise and to the point.
Upon hearing this, the beautiful young lady’s professional smile instantly transformed into a genuine, heartfelt smile.
“Okay, everyone, please come this way. I’m the sales associate, Tanya!” The other person introduced himself while leading the way.
Among the team members, Fang Tianhe and Wu Yan both had expressionless faces. Roger’s attention was focused on the mecha models around him. As for Shen Han, she would not feign interest in anything. Among them, only Xu Haishui was smiling at Tanya.
Unfortunately for Xu Haishui, Tanya seemed indifferent to his advances, ultimately setting her sights on the younger and more handsome Lin Xinghai.
She slowed her pace. When she got closer to Lin Xinghai, she revealed a charming smile and asked, “May I know what kind of mecha you are looking to purchase? We have recently launched the Warrior series and the War God series of mechas. I wonder if you are interested in…”
“No need, we will directly purchase the prototype model. Also, send your engineers over to develop a modification plan according to my requirements.” Fang Tianhe interjected bluntly.
Tanya immediately shut up. It was evident that the group of people in front of her, at least Fang Tianhe who was leading the way, knew what they were doing.
There were pros and cons for such a client.
The advantage was that this deal had a good chance of succeeding, but the downside was that there was no room for deception, and the commission for this deal would definitely be significantly reduced.
Soon, everyone arrived at the mecha lobby. That was the place designated for storing mechas, and there were various models on display. Some were bulky, some were sleek, some looked menacing, and some appeared ornate.
There were nearly 20 mechas here. Everyone was dazzled by this sight.
However, Lin Xinghai could tell that, no matter how much the appearance of these mechas had changed, they were all modified from the prototype placed in the corner of the hall.
