The Military Queen-Chapter 102 - 80

Following Yijie, after traversing the majority of Babylon City, the two stopped at a crossroads.

Adhering to the principle that the weak should stay quiet, Number Zero had not asked any questions along the way.

Yijie stood at the front, looking left and right, still not taking the next step. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"Where exactly are we going?" Number Zero thought to herself, if they continued walking, they would have roamed the entire Babylon City.

"I’m taking you to accept a task, to level up and accumulate military merit. We have no clue about the system task now, so let’s start with some practice tasks at the ’military station’. I’ve seen the recommendation letter from the Dark Night Market, the selection for the Personal Guard is in a month. Before that, at the very least, you’ll need to train to the rank of Sergeant and add a support attack Special Skill," Yijie thought to himself that even if he encountered an enemy and fought, the one following him would still have to last until the end.

It sounded good, Number Zero really wouldn’t dare to rashly accept tasks alone. "Okay, I’ll listen to you. To go to the military station, turn left ahead, two turns, and it’s on the right. What was all that wandering about for?"

The tall figure ahead fell silent again, only slowly following the route Number Zero had described. After not many steps, Number Zero shouted, "Were you lost just now?"

Underneath the Octagonal hat, the bald head looking at Number Zero suspiciously blushed.

If there’s anything Yijie is poor at, it’s navigating. As long as the non-linear distance exceeds one thousand meters, he would lose his way. In reality, with advanced communication networks and GPS satellite positioning, this won’t happen. But in "Military Road," such advanced devices don’t exist. One can only rely on legs and eyes.

The woman following behind continued, "Don’t we have a system map?"

"Looking at the map gives me a headache," Yijie grudgingly answered. Everyone has their weaknesses.

"You should know the saying ’know it like the back of your hand’," they had been walking for over an hour just now. Such a person was still telling her to keep up.

Yijie didn’t say anything, just kept walking straight ahead, and after about a hundred meters, he simply took off his Octagonal hat, "How did you say to get there just now?"

Number Zero struggled to control her laughter, moved to the front, her attack might be weak, her defense might be weak, but she was good with maps and remembering paths, in this sense, her partnership with Yijie was seamless.

After arriving at the military station, the half-masked woman did not come forward actively this time. She just stood at the counter, not initiating a greeting. Every player could only enjoy the initiative of being greeted once.

Yijie knew more about the task system of the "military station." Generally, players choose their own tasks and then discuss with the person in charge of the "military station" to finalize the task details.

She walked up to the task column and looked for a few moments, "Are you better at ordinary tasks or Intermediate Tasks?" The so-called Primary Tasks were those marked on papyrus, while Intermediate Tasks referred to those marked on animal hides.

Before Yijie and Number Zero made their alliance, he had always taken Intermediate Tasks. But with Number Zero joining, it wasn’t very safe.

"We don’t have much time. I usually log in at night, and your timing should be similar to mine, we can only accept Intermediate Tasks now." After hearing about Primary and Intermediate Tasks, Number Zero immediately thought of Advanced Tasks. It seemed Advanced Tasks were not posted on the bulletin board.

"Military Road" is only open for public testing to the Military Networks of various countries, and only open to soldiers with a military ID. So this player named "Yijie" must also be a soldier. Judging by his stature and silhouette, he should also be from Hua Country.

Number Zero is not one to gossip, and Yijie doesn’t like to pry into others’ privacy. If it was Mo Xixi, she probably would have already fully inquired about the other party’s information during the name reporting.

"Then we’ll just take non-time-specific Intermediate Tasks," they narrowed down the task range even further. The tasks at the "military station" get updated every three days, with a wide variety of categories.

For every task, there is no limit on the number of participants. Military Merit Points are capped, for a 500 Military Merit task, if two people take it, the merit is split 250 each. For Number Zero to become a Junior Sergeant, over 2000 Military Merit Points are needed. With each Intermediate Task worth around 1000 Military Merit Points on average, and the points split between the two, they would need to complete about five tasks in total. To make up for the bad impression he had left before with his poor navigation, Yijie was very eager to do the math.

(Why make it so complicated, you could just adjust the Military Merit directly,) Little Eight couldn’t understand, following the principle of reality linked to Military Road, Number Zero could directly adjust to the rank of Junior Sergeant, and then she would immediately obtain a new skill.
