After a moment, all the people had arrived. Hundreds of figures stood neatly on the drill ground.
Tobu said to the eight adults: "Everyone, wait a minute." He came to the front of the crowd. There was a rare smile on his cold face: "First of all, congratulations on finally standing out from the garbage and becoming a qualified soldier! However, the real test will begin from now on. From now on, you will leave this warm cradle and face the real life and death! "
Everyone was slightly surprised. Some did not understand the meaning of Tobu's words.
Dean's eyes lit up. He knew that Tobu was going to announce the identity of scavengers.
As he expected, Tobu looked at everyone's puzzled expression and said in a clear voice: "From the moment you graduate, you will get a new identity. But you will not be a 'guard' as you think, but a 'scavenger'!"
"Scavengers?" Everyone looked at each other.
"I know that many of you are hearing about this position for the first time." Tobu slowly said: "Let me put it bluntly. Scavengers are higher than guards and are on the same level as knights. However, knights are loyal to the corps and nobles. In my opinion, they are just a group of small white faces. Scavengers are the real warriors who create wealth and protect human beings! "
Everyone's eyes widened.
The same level as knights?
What kind of illustrious identity was that!
Suddenly, everyone felt like they were dreaming. They did not expect that three years of hard work and persistence would get such a generous return!
Tobu looked at the excitement on everyone's face and calmly said: "But the difference between scavengers and knights is that one is in the dark and the other is in the light. In short, scavengers are the heroes behind the scenes! From today on, your identity as scavengers can't be disclosed even to your parents or loved ones. This is a military secret! "
"Outside, we will give you the identity of a guard to cover up."
"After you have accumulated enough military merits, you can get permanent residence in the commercial district."
Hearing Tobu's words, everyone's eyes blazed. Living in the commercial district was the wish of almost every civilian in the residential district!
"Instructor, what is the job of scavengers?" At this time, a dark-skinned teenager raised his hand and asked.
Tobu indifferently said: "Your job is to go to the safe area outside the giant wall, collect all the information and resources outside the giant wall and bring them back here!"
All the children were in an uproar. They realized that there was no free lunch in the world. Although no one had seen the world outside the giant wall, but they were indoctrinated from an early age. They were full of awe for the giant wall. This was a deep-rooted fear.
But now, they had to step out of the giant wall and go to the forbidden area.
"Instructor, can we withdraw?" Someone raised his hand weakly.
Tobu indifferently said: "Yes, but I will give your family compensation in the name of 'death in the line of duty'."
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts. This was a position with no choice!
"You don't have to worry, although it is very dangerous outside the giant wall, but we will not waste three years of resources to cultivate some cannon fodder. You work in a safe area that has been cleaned. As long as you are careful, there will be no danger. The death rate of scavengers is not high." Tobu looked at the crowd and said: "Moreover, when you go outside the giant wall, you will get god's blessing."
"God's blessing?" Everyone was stunned.
Dean could not help but raise his eyebrows.
Tobu pointed to the eight figures next to him and said: "These eight are representatives of the seven consortiums of the commercial district and the military. You can choose to join any of them. From now on, you will work for the consortium or the military of your choice. You will collect resources from outside the giant wall. You can exchange them for huge wealth. I remember there was a scavenger who picked up a strange object outside the giant wall. He got 100,000 gold coins and became a rich man!"
Everyone's heart was fiercely shocked. 100,000 gold coins? This was a wealth that they could not even imagine!
Dean's eyes flashed. He did not expect that scavengers could get a commission from the things they picked up. It seemed that it was a good career to get rich. However, the easier it was to get rich, the higher the risk.
At this time, the eight men and women came to the front of the crowd. A youth in black leather armor on the left smiled: "I represent the military. This is the contract reward we give. All the people who join our military will get the qualification to live in the commercial district after ten years."
"We are the Stirling consortium. We can provide the qualification to live in the commercial district as well as houses in the bustling area. Moreover, our commission is 10% …" Another graceful woman smiled.
The others also opened their mouths and introduced the treatment of their consortiums.
Dean understood that Tobu was just a special training center. All the children selected from the residential district would be sent here for collective special training. The forces behind this special training center were the seven consortiums and the military!
Relying on the military alone, it was impossible to force students from the residential schools. After all, some of the schools were founded by nobles or under the banner of a consortium.
What made him feel strange was that there was no intervention from the Holy Church.
At this time, the other children had come in front of the representatives of the consortiums and the military to choose their future path. The conditions given by these consortiums were similar. Because of the competition, the benefits given were not much different.
"Dean, let's choose the same consortium." Macon said.
Dean nodded slightly.
Sham asked: "Should we choose the military or the consortium?"
"You should first look at the conditions given by them." Dean came in front of Tobu and said: "Instructor, can we not choose all the consortiums and the military?"
Tobu looked down at him. He had a very deep impression of this child. Whether it was the tenacious endurance training when he first came, or the rapid progress later, as well as the last three years, the performance of this child made him look at him in a new light. Tobu smiled and said: "If you don't choose then it is equivalent to quitting. You have good qualifications, I believe that you can mix in the scavengers. Seize the opportunity." He paused for a moment and said: "I can give you a personal suggestion. Mellon consortium has great potential."
Dean was surprised. He didn't expect that Tobu would not recommend the military, but the consortium.
Seeing Tobu turn away, he didn't catch up and ask. At this time, Sham, Mason and Zach came back. Sham said: "I saw that the conditions are almost the same. The military has the best treatment but the materials are picked up and the commission is not high. Moreover, the conditions given by these consortiums vary from person to person. I saw Lorian join the Sterling consortium. The other party actually gave 15% of the extraction fee and said that he would get a blessing from god once a month!"
"Ah!!"
At this time, a low roar sounded.
