The more important Captain Bukmid was to Maxwell, the more meritorious Lu Li and the others would be, and the more rewards they would receive.
If Captain Bukmid was Maxwell's son, it would be even better.
Unfortunately, he wasn't Maxwell's son. However, that didn't affect Maxwell's gratitude towards Lu Li, because they were uncle and nephew. It was said that Maxwell's younger brother had died in battle to protect him, and Bukmid was the only son he had left.
Therefore, Marshal Maxwell would rather have his own son die than the only flesh and blood left by his younger brother.
Bukmid told Maxwell everything that had happened. He was kind enough to exaggerate the role that Lu Li and the others played. According to his description, Lu Li and a dozen people had saved them from a desperate situation, and the thousands of reinforcements had defeated the orc shaman army. The rows of orc heads that had been cut off were the evidence.
"I'm not mistaken," Maxwell said as he let go of his nephew and hugged Lu Li tightly.
Although this guy had white hair, his hug was so strong that Lu Li almost couldn't breathe. Lu Li once again expressed that this was what he was supposed to do. Any responsible citizen of the Azeroth Continent, any warrior of the Alliance, wouldn't watch their comrades in danger and do nothing.
"I want to reward you." Without waiting for Shameless Lu to pull any tricks, Marshal Maxwell showed his generosity very well.
"Long live the Alliance!" Lu Li imitated the etiquette of the Alliance. He clenched his fist and hit the left side of his chest.
"Now, in the name of the military, I appoint you as a Second Lieutenant of the Alliance," Maxwell announced solemnly as he placed his sword on Lu Li's shoulder.
"F * ck!" Lu Li almost slapped him.
What did he give him?
Second Lieutenant rank!
He was already a 10,000-man Commander! If not for the fact that he felt that the PVP Military Rank System wasn't very useful, he would've been a General by now. Moonlight, a PvP maniac, had unwittingly become a General, a rank higher than a General.
It was fine if he was given a military rank, but he was only given the rank of second lieutenant.
Wait, since when was there a rank of Second Lieutenant? Lu Li hurriedly pulled up the PVP menu and glanced at it. He was very sure that the rank of Second Lieutenant was not there.
Private, Corporal, Sergeant, Level 1 Master Sergeant, Level 2 Master Sergeant, Level 3 Master Sergeant, Level 4 Master Sergeant, Level 5 Master Sergeant, Level 6 Master Sergeant, Level 7 Master Sergeant, Level 8 Master Sergeant, Level 9 Master Sergeant, Centurions, Chiliarchs, Captains, Brigadiers, Generals, Overseers, Intermediate Overseers, High Overseers, Marshals, Grand Marshals, and Privates.
The Horde might be slightly different, but Lu Li was sure that no matter if it was the Horde or the Alliance, there were no ranks like Second Lieutenant or Major.
But the NPC …
Could it be that this rank wasn't from the player system, but rather he was an NPC?
NPC: There's a traitor among us!
Sure enough, Lu Li quickly found the answer under his new title: Lu Li, Race: Night Elf, Second Lieutenant of the Alliance. Can recruit 10 soldiers from any camp based on reasonable military needs.
There was also a new attribute for Commanding Points. Lu Li's current Commanding Points was 10, which was the maximum number of soldiers he could recruit. In the description of the new attribute, if a soldier that Lu Li recruited died in a quest, he would lose the corresponding Commanding Points.
How to put it, this Second Lieutenant rank would be very useful in a critical moment, but Lu Li didn't dare to use it casually.
For example, the Vol 'jin's Battle Flag that he had obtained before. The attributes were very good, but he didn't dare to carry it on him.
Vol 'jin's Battle Flag (Special): Place a Vol' jin's Battle Flag. The Battle Flag increases the attack and defense of allies within 100 yards by 50%. Lasts for 60 seconds, and restores 5% of the maximum HP of all allies within the range every 2 seconds. Lasts for 30 seconds. Cooldown: 6 hours. Drops upon death.
Drops upon death. It was similar to the Second Lieutenant rank. Losing a soldier would probably mean losing one Commanding Point.
Saving his nephew and hundreds of Alliance soldiers from the hands of thousands of Blackrock Orcs was a great achievement and favor, but he only got 10 Commanding Points. One could imagine how precious Commanding Points were. At least, Lu Li didn't know how to increase his Commanding Points.
Lu Li had never heard of Commanding Points in his previous life. It was obviously something very high and mighty.
Take Lu Li for example. Who would coincidentally encounter a war between NPCs? Even if they did, how many people would have the ability to interfere? Even if they called for thousands of people to save Bukmid, Marshal Maxwell might not give them the Second Lieutenant rank even if they didn't know each other well.
Apart from being able to command 10 soldiers, the Second Lieutenant rank also gave Lu Li a bonus of 10 to all his attributes. It was better than nothing.
"Other than the military rank, I can also increase your strength." Marshal Maxwell was in a good mood after he found his nephew safely. "But you have two choices. One is to enjoy this reward alone, and the other is for all of you to enjoy this reward together …"
Damn it, do you dare to talk to me in private?
"Of course we'll enjoy this glory together. A qualified leader must think of his subordinates," Lu Li said righteously.
There was no hesitation. Even if there was hesitation, it was very short.
Marshal Maxwell was very satisfied with this. He nodded and said, "In that case, we'll do as you say. In addition, in order to express my gratitude and appreciation to you, everyone who participates in the battle today can hire soldiers from the camp to fight against that idiot Drakkisath for free."
"Your generosity is as bright as the sun and the moon," Lu Li said sincerely.
With so many people being able to hire the camp guards to fight General Drakkisath for free, the huge profit they could make from this operation was enough to make a lot of money.
Then, Lu Li received a notification from the system that he had received a certain amount of Reputation and EXP.
The others also received the same. To Lu Li's surprise, the EXP wasn't too shabby. After all, thousands of people had received EXP at the same time. But when he thought about it, he felt his heart ache. If he had received the EXP alone, he would have been level 60 by now.
In fact, if Lu Li had chosen to enjoy the reward alone, the EXP would have allowed him to level up to level 60.
However, he wouldn't be able to use the soldiers for free.
Marshal Maxwell was a selfish guy, so he couldn't be as generous as he was now.
Lu Li felt bad, so he decided to make full use of Marshal Maxwell's reward. For example, these thousands of players could all be party leaders, and each person could lead a party into the Instance Dungeon. Then, they could hire a few thousand guards to help fight General Drakkisath. This wasn't as simple as Marshal Maxwell's idea of a few thousand players forming a party of 15 and hiring two guards per party.
