Pinnacle Armor

Compared to the Sizik Planetary Government, which is described as hypocritical, and even the Alliance Government doesn't care much about it, the mercenary guild located in the East District can be said to be the most popular place on the planet besides the exchange and the auction house.At the same time, the Sizik Mercenary Guild is also the most authoritative existence among the first few mercenary guilds established in the Starlight Alliance.

Since the general laws and morals are totally unacceptable on this chaotic planet, the mercenaries living here are very competitive within the industry, and they are even more famous in the entire alliance for their style of "dare to accept any commission".While the tyrannical reputation prompted business to follow, in order to avoid internal friction caused by unfair competition, after several large-scale negotiations, the hard-working mercenaries agreed that the mercenary guild would act as the arbitrator.Although there are still a small number of rebels who are unwilling to follow this rule, but for newcomers who have just arrived here, if they want to receive a guaranteed mission as soon as possible, joining the mercenary guild is the most direct and effective way.

The arrival of Xin Xunyang and Lu Xingxi did not attract the attention of too many people in the mercenary guild.

Looking at the age of the two of them in the entire alliance, they are indeed very young, but on the planet Sizik, where there are many mercenaries aged [-] or [-], Xin Xunyang, who are over [-] years old, are already considered adults.

Since he had obtained a lot of information from Laura before coming here, after entering the guild building, Xin Xunyang did not wander around like most stunned youths, but went straight to the registration desk on the first floor.

The ring-shaped registration desk with a diameter of [-] meters is made up of two curved tables in red and blue. The red area provides services such as registering rosters and receiving tasks for mercenaries; while the blue area is for clients. , but most clients don't like to show their faces directly, and prefer to issue tasks through the Internet, so the blue half looks relatively deserted.

Xin Xunyang sat down on an empty swivel chair, and said to the staff behind the desk who were applying nail polish, "I want to register."

The other party lazily raised his head to look at him, blew his nails reluctantly, and then asked slowly: "Is it a team registration or an individual registration?"

"personal."

"Oh, if a young knight like you doesn't have a mercenary group, I'm afraid it's not easy to receive the mission." While speaking, the worker's fingers skillfully slid on the light curtain, "What's the base price for the mission you set for yourself?" ?”

The trading style of the mercenary guild is very free and casual. The pricing of the mercenary missions is not assessed by the guild, but they set the price themselves. The guild will only make corresponding suggestions when they set the price. , and then after the price is determined, introduce mercenaries with similar asking prices to clients with suitable asking prices.

The staff reckoned that the price offered by the youthful-looking boy in front of him was probably the reserve price of the guild.In the end, she heard the other party say: "The base price for a single task is 100 million interstellar coins, and the base price for tasks calculated on time is [-] a day."

"..." The price is too high!

Generally speaking, the price of a new mercenary is usually 20 interstellar coins for a single task, and [-] to [-] interstellar coins a day for tasks calculated on time. No one has ever raised the price so high when they first registered. Entrust yourself to starve to death?No, you can't just draw conclusions so hastily. Maybe the other party has some background?

Before opening his mouth to ridicule, reason made the staff member hold back the impulse in time.

She sat up a bit and asked, "What's your name?"

"Xin Xunyang."

As soon as these words came out, the worker was stunned for a moment, then turned his head carefully and looked around.

In fact, she didn't have to be so worried, because when Xin Xunyang announced his name, he had already paid attention to keeping his voice down so that only each other could hear him.

If, before escaping from Chenxing, the name Xin Xunyang was only circulated in the Alliance Army, and every time he was introduced, the key word was "General Xin's son", after escaping from Chenxing, his name It has already spread in the alliance with the wanted notice.Especially for mercenaries wandering in the gray area and space pirates hiding in the dark, those who dare to directly break through the interception of the space port guard and force their way out of the port are enough to arouse their strong interest.

It was less than a month since the incident of the universe port in Chenxing Eastern District being breached by force, and now is the time when Xin Xunyang's "popularity" is at its highest.Although based on the principle of confidentiality, the mercenary guild will not disclose Xin Xunyang's real name to the outside world, but at least when weighing his strength, his record of forcibly breaking through the space port is an important reference.

After a quick analysis in her mind, the staff saw Xin Xunyang's eyes became serious, and she smiled and said, "I see, but you are not planning to record this name into the system, are you? Have you figured out what to use as the code name?" ?"

Looking at the billboard on the side casually, Xin Xunyang looked at a picture of an animal on it and said, "Let's call it 'Clouded Leopard'."

"This code name is good." The worker nodded, entered the price he just quoted into the system for archiving, and then handed a translucent silver-gray card to Xin Xunyang and said, "This is your account card in the guild. Please keep it safe. Your serial number is i315, and the current rating is tentatively rated as three stars. Your future rating will be adjusted according to the points you have accumulated for completing tasks. Because you have just registered, you can only passively accept commissions in the short term. Someone is looking for you If so, we will send the relevant information to your terminal. After the trial period, you can enter your own number online to check the entrusted tasks that have been released in the guild... Do you have any questions?"

"No, thanks." After taking the account card, Xin Xunyang stretched out his hand and patted Lu Xingxi, who was watching the entrusted tasks scrolling on the big screen, "Let's go."

******

"Didn't you say that the mercenary pricing is completely independent? What does the rating mean?" After getting into the car, Lu Xingxi asked.

"Well, it's a rule to keep the reputation of the mercenary guild and avoid the client from spending money. The higher the star rating, the higher the mission completion and credit of the mercenary, and it is also a proof of strength. The level is not enough For the sake of their own safety and the interests of their clients, the guild will limit the scope of tasks they can receive." So it is said to be completely independent, but in fact there are still restrictions.

"What is the highest star rating?"

"Seven Stars." Xin Xunyang replied, his eyes lit up, "I will upgrade my level as soon as possible."

"Don't talk like you're playing a game." Lu Xingxi reminded the other party helplessly, "Then it's time to find a place to live? The card you gave me last time still has a lot of balance, it should be enough to rent a set House. But shall we come up with a new name?"

Hearing this, Xin Xunyang smiled, "I like the idea of ​​changing the name."

Young people are always adventurous, and changing names and surnames is a typical enduring plot in adventure stories.

"Since you want to, you have to think of a more powerful name..."

"Lian." Lu Xingxi interrupted the other party's imaginative reverie, "Your name is Ryan, my name is Andy, and my surname is Mori. To the outside world, we say that we are brothers." Taking a pseudonym that is completely different from the original name system can increase security. Improve it even more.

brother?

Xin Xunyang turned his head to look at Lu Xingxi, and asked slowly, "Who is the elder brother?"

"..." This expression didn't look like he was thinking of anything good.Lu Xingxi said decisively: "Me."

I thought that Xin Xunyang would fight over this issue, but I didn't expect the other party to accept it without any resistance.

After Xin Xunyang heard that Lu Xingxi had categorically divided the status of the two, he smiled without hesitation: "Okay. Anyway, no matter who is the elder brother, we all have the same household registration."

I always feel that the other party's interpretation of "one account" is different from what I think.

Lu Xingxi pursed his lips, and decided that it was better not to ask in detail.

Apart from the transport vehicle, they left the Sunset without accepting anything Laura was going to give them, including money.Therefore, when Xin Xunyang's first entrusted task did not know when it would come to him, the two had to be more frugal.

In the end, they rented a one-bedroom, one-living room with a bathroom in a relatively suburban place in Sizik.There was originally a two-bedroom option, but the latter did not have a garage like the former, so in order to be able to park the transport vehicle, they had to reduce their living space.

"The housing price in this place is almost higher than that of Chen Xing." After seeing off the landlord, Lu Xingxi frowned slightly as he looked at the gray room in front of him.

The house price is almost the same as that of Chen Xing, and the quality of service is very different... Probably only people from the evil star Sizick will regard this as normal.

Xin Xunyang said: "Fortunately, I am quite satisfied."

Lu Xingxi turned around in surprise, only to see the other party standing at the door of the only bedroom with a bright smile on his face.

"..." He found that since the relationship between the two was no longer as pure as before, Xin Xunyang's mind seemed to have a twitch from time to time.

Walking to the side of the sofa in the living room, Lu Xingxi bent down skillfully to tinker with it, and with a "touch", the sofa that looked old was spread out to form a quite spacious bed.

He nodded in satisfaction and said: "Sure enough, I said that the thickness of this sofa looks very similar to the sofa bed that was popular before. Very good, so our rest will not be a problem."

Xin Xunyang's smile collapsed.

What he was most satisfied with about this house was that there was only one bedroom, so he could have sex with Lu Xingxi confidently when the time came, but... How about smashing the so-called sofa bed quietly?

"The price of ordering a new bed online is not expensive, and it shouldn't be a problem for the knight's physique to lay the bed on the floor." Lu Xingxi said slowly, seeing through what thoughts were going through his mind.

Xin Xunyang looked away from the innocent sofa bed, "I think it's of good quality, and it should be able to serve for a while longer." Taking advantage of the opportunity, the future will last forever.
