Colonel Zhang had mentioned joining the army earlier, but he had only mentioned it casually. However, it was different this time. Upon seeing Lin Yao\'s talent, even he was a little envious and hoped to rope Lin Yao into the army.
Unlike individual heroism, the army focused on battle formations that gathered the strength of everyone. When tens of thousands of troops gathered together and connected their aura and battle formations, a 10,000-person battle group could even resist king-level beasts.
However, powerhouses were also needed in such an army. Powerhouses had to be at the center of the battle formation, not to mention the ability to fight alone. Therefore, geniuses were welcomed everywhere.
In order to rope in Lin Yao, Colonel Zhang, who had always been reticent, also said a lot.
"Although there are powerhouses in the outside world now, the strongest powerhouse in China is in the military. Four of the top 10 titled kings are in the military, and their combat power is the strongest in the military. The same is true for the top martial artists. Besides, the military is also the first to enter the mystic realm. The military will obtain the good things inside, and the country will also give the military the greatest support …"
Colonel Zhang was talking about the benefits of joining the army, such as top-notch powerhouses, the best resources, and the support of the country.
In response, the others silently added in their hearts.
"The military does have many benefits, but it also has the highest death rate and the strictest discipline."
Of course, they didn\'t say this out loud. One reason was that they didn\'t dare to say it, and the other was out of respect.
It seemed like it would be beneficial for the military to be the first to enter the mystic realm, but the mystic realm was ever-changing, and no one knew what kind of dangers there would be. Therefore, the military suffered heavy casualties. It was possible that the entire army would be wiped out after entering. At the same time, the military was also the frontline of China\'s resistance against beasts and all other crises. It was the strongest Great Wall to protect people and the foundation of China\'s stability. Therefore, when they recruited geniuses, other departments wouldn\'t stop them. They wouldn\'t even compete with the military. This was the preferential treatment of the country and the respect of these people.
After listening to the introduction of the military, Lin Yao was also excited. However, after thinking about it, he said, "I\'m sorry. I really want to serve the country, but the discipline of the military is too strict. I might not be able to abide by it."
An army might value geniuses, but the most important thing to ensure their combat power was discipline. Therefore, the military was the place that received the most support in times of crisis, and it was also the place where discipline was the most stringent.
Of course, only the Divine Great Land was like this.
Lin Yao was not afraid of a high death rate, but if he joined the army, all his actions would be restricted, and he could not abide by orders and prohibitions. Therefore, no matter how good the army was, Lin Yao could only give up.
In this regard, the Colonel didn't say anything, but just returned to the line without saying a word.
Lin Yao looked at him, who was silent, and thought about his own situation. He also knew why the army was the base of ordinary people. Obviously, geniuses and children of rich and powerful families were people with personalities, and it was difficult for them to accept collective control.
Only ordinary people, those who had no talent, would stick together. Some people who had gone through trials and tribulations would also think about their origins.
Of course, there were always exceptions in the world. There were geniuses in the army, but there weren't many of them.
"I'm sorry …"
Lin Yao, who felt apologetic, was still apologizing when the colonel interrupted him.
"There's no need for that. There's more than one way to serve the country. Besides, even if you don't join the army, we'll still have the chance to fight together. Work hard to improve yourself."
After the military's recruitment, the Armed Police Force and the Abnormal Ability Department also extended an olive branch.
However, the city didn't say anything this time.
This was very normal. The city wanted Lin Yao to stay, and they couldn't say anything about the army. However, regardless of whether it was the Armed Police Force, the Abnormal Ability Department, or other jobs, as long as Lin Yao stayed in the city, he would be able to take action when the city faced a major crisis. This was their request. Naturally, they wouldn't force him to join a specific department.
Lin Yao didn't agree immediately in the face of so many offers. He was going to think about it and used the excuse that he needed to discuss it with his parents.
"Indeed, you should have a good discussion. Although we're recruiting, no matter which department you join, you'll need to take the college entrance examination and study first. You can only work after you graduate.
"Now, we'll print out your certificate first. You can pick up the techniques and treasures later, but you can take the medicine and money with you this time."
…
After busying himself for a while, Lin Yao came empty-handed. By the time he returned, he already had 30,000 yuan in cash and 30 bottles of nutrition drinks.
These nutrition drinks were the monthly quota, which was enough for Lin Yao to have one bottle a day.
10,000 yuan a day was already the treatment of an ordinary tycoon. However, Lin Yao had a hunch that the city was giving nutrition drinks for one reason. One reason was that, as they said, they hoped that Lin Yao could improve his strength instead of giving him money to squander. Another possibility was that the cost of nutrition drinks was actually not that high.
'That's right. If they sell it for 10,000 yuan, how can the cost be less than 10,000 yuan? 3,000 yuan or even 1,000 yuan is the cost of these low-level nutrition drinks.'
In terms of the cost of nutrition drinks, Lin Yao only received 50,000 to 60,000 yuan in subsidies. This was a lot for ordinary people, but it was nothing for geniuses who were expected to reach the diamond level.
After all, the benefits of a diamond-level powerhouse growing up would be immeasurable.
However, Lin Yao wasn't dissatisfied. Among the things given by the country, nutrition drinks and money were not the most important.
Cultivation techniques and the allocation of diamond-level treasures were the most important things.
At the same time, the city and the country were purely training him. Lin Yao was still a free person. As long as he was in the country and in the city, he could still participate in work. He could enter the armed police force, the Abnormal Ability Department, or other private companies. Lin Yao would also receive a full salary there. Therefore, these were purely subsidies. Lin Yao was only grateful for this free money. If he complained, he would be an ingrate.
'It was originally a black iron ability, but now it has been upgraded to silver and has a diamond potential. I didn't expect this. The treatment of geniuses is really good.'
Lin Yao was in a good mood, so his footsteps were lighter.
Staring at the scorching sun, Lin Yao ran all the way home.
"I'm back."
After shouting, Lin Yao was about to put down his things and go out to take a bottle of nutrition drink while the sun was hot. He wanted to try out the feeling of spending money to practice martial arts.
However, after entering the house, Lin Yao smiled when he saw what he was stepping on.
'My luck has really been unstoppable these past few days. I actually picked up another five yuan.'
The sunlight absorption rating was diamond, and the ration of resources had increased by nearly 10 times. Lin Yao had indeed been very lucky recently. Now that he had picked up money again, this was a good sign.
Of course, although he said that, he had found the money on the ground at home. Obviously, it had been dropped by a family member.
Therefore, it was just a joke.
Lin Yao waved the five-yuan note in his hand around the house.
"Xiaoye, Xiaodie, which of you dropped your money? Come and get it yourself."
