Special Forces: I Can See the Experience Bar

Chapter 59 The Announcement Has Arrived
"Are you busy or not? If not, then leave. You're a regimental commander now, aren't you busy?"

Miao Lianjian was as shameless as Commander Kang. Even though his face clearly showed his dislike for him, Kang could still pretend not to see it.

"It's alright. My partner is a workaholic, so I basically don't have much to do!"
To be honest, we're like brothers, aren't we? If you're ever in trouble, just say the word, and I'll definitely help you.

Commander Kang spoke sincerely and was not joking with Miao Lian.

Those who came down from the battlefield all had some physical ailments, some aches and pains, and some mental problems.

Treatment would be troublesome, so Commander Kang was genuinely worried that something might have happened to Miao Lian's health.

"Alright, stop with the mushy stuff. I'm really fine, it's just that one of my platoon leaders is having health problems, and I was afraid that guy would try to fool me again, so I came along to check on him."

Miao Lian was so pestered by Commander Kang that he lost his temper and quickly explained why he was in the hospital. Otherwise, given Kang's honest nature, he would have definitely insisted on helping him.

"Oh, I see. Since you're alright, I'll head back then."

Seeing that Miao Lianzhen was alright, Commander Kang was relieved and immediately asked to return to the regiment.

"Alright, Changning, you see Commander Kang off."

Miao Lian spoke while giving Chang Ning a meaningful look.

"Yes."

Chang Ning nodded slightly and said that he didn't understand what information Miao Lian wanted to give him, but it didn't matter, he would just remain unchanged and deal with all changes.

After the two left the outpatient department, Commander Kang said with a smile, "Chang Ning, are you really not going to consider it?"
Our Sharpshooter Fourth Company is also an excellent company with a glorious history; we're quite capable.

"Commander Kang, I'll go if our Miao company agrees. I'm just a lowly soldier."

Chang Ning politely declined Commander Kang's invitation, after all, since she had come all this way, it would feel incomplete if she didn't experience life in the Wolf Fang.

It's like eating noodles without garlic—it's tasteless.

"Alright then, I saw you had pretty good shooting skills last time. Come to our regiment sometime and teach the sharpshooters of the Fourth Company a lesson, so they don't always think they're the best in the world!"

When a direct invitation failed, Commander Kang devised another plan. Whenever someone from Changning came to their Iron Fist Regiment, they would try every means to keep them there.

At worst, we can talk to the brigade commander; everything is negotiable.

Even if Chang Ning doesn't end up being recruited, he won't lose out. Using Chang Ning's shooting skills to motivate the guys in the Fourth Company and improve their skills wouldn't be a bad thing.

Don't be fooled by Commander Kang's seemingly harmless, smiling face; he's actually quite calculating, provided he doesn't have to drink alcohol.

"Alright, since you've said so, Commander Kang, I'll go to the Iron Fist Regiment when I have time."

Chang Ning was no match for a seasoned veteran like Commander Kang. Before he knew it, he had fallen into Kang's trap.

"Haha, it's a deal, no backing out!"

Okay, go back."

Commander Kang laughed heartily and told Chang Ning to go back and stay with Miao Lian, while he got into a military vehicle.

Chang Ning couldn't guess what Commander Kang was thinking, but being a sensitive person, he felt something was off seeing Commander Kang so happy.

'Commander Kang isn't so happy because I agreed to go to the Sharpshooter Fourth Company for an exchange, is he?'

Chang Ning recalled his conversation with Commander Kang by the car. The logic was sound, and it did seem plausible.

With these questions in mind, Chang Ning arrived outside the office where Chen Guotao had been treated, only to find that Chen Guotao had already come out.

At this moment, he and Miao Lian were sitting in a chair and talking quietly. Chang Ning guessed that they were discussing the illness.

"Chang Ning, you're back. What did Lao Kang say to you before he left?"

Miao Lian was reminding Chen Guotao to take care of his health when he looked up and saw Chang Ning arrive.

Seeing his thoughtful expression, one could immediately tell that Commander Kang must have said something.

"Miao Lian, how did you know?"

Chang Ning said with a surprised expression, "Miao Lian wasn't with them when he was talking to Commander Kang."

"It's written all over their faces."

Miao Lian said irritably.

"What's obvious? It's like this, Commander Kang..."

Chang Ning honestly told Miao Lian what had happened.

"Hey, this old Kang, he's not giving up."

Miao Lian was amused by Commander Kang's persistence.

"Don't worry about this. You don't need to go to the Iron Fist Regiment either. That Kang Lei is no good!"

"Why?"

Chang Ning was stunned and quickly asked.

"First of all, the Iron Fist Gang is their territory, and they will try to make you stay if you go there. Secondly, even if you don't agree to stay in the end, going to the Sharpshooter Fourth Company for exchanges can still help them improve their combat effectiveness."

After all the calculations, Commander Kang won't lose money at all.

The speaker was Chen Guotao, who explained the pros and cons very clearly.

When Chang Ning went to see Commander Kang off, his diagnosis was already finished. Miao Lian told Chen Guotao about Commander Kang poaching people, just for fun. How could Chang Ning possibly go to the Iron Fist Regiment?

That's why Chen Guotao was able to analyze things so logically.

"I see!"

After Chen Guotao's analysis, Chang Ning suddenly understood.

Afterwards, the three accompanied Chen Guotao to buy medicine, called Xiao Zhuang, and then returned to the company.

When Changning found Xiaozhuang, he had the good fortune to see Xiaoying, who was indeed beautiful.

"Patrolman Chen, how are you feeling?"

After reluctantly parting ways with his girlfriend, Xiao Zhuang inquired about Chen Guotao's condition as soon as he got into the car.

"What else can I do but take medicine? I also have to go to the hospital for physical therapy every month."

Chen Guotao was not in high spirits, after all, his dream of becoming a special forces soldier was shattered starting today.

The atmosphere in the car gradually became heavy. Chang Ning was helpless in this situation; his system had medicine for treatment, but he couldn't afford it. Fortunately, Chen Guotao could at least undergo basic military training, but high-intensity training was out of the question.

Fortunately, he's now a platoon leader, so he has to handle some administrative tasks, and his training intensity isn't as high as that of ordinary reconnaissance soldiers. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to stay in the reconnaissance company any longer and would have to submit a report to go to logistics.

A week later, Chang Ning finally accumulated 200 merit points and excitedly opened the shop panel, only to find that the discount announcement was gone.

The stun gun he had his eye on earlier has gone back to its original price, and now it costs 1000 merit points to buy, which is far beyond his means.

"The system will show me the products I can afford right now."

Chang Ning had no choice but to check what items she could afford with 200 points; maybe there would be a pleasant surprise.

"Please wait a moment, host..."

"Query successful!"

"Explosive Bullets *3: 200 Merit Points"

"Frostbolt x3: 200 Merit Points"

When Chang Ning saw that only two types of special bullets appeared, he couldn't believe his eyes. There were many products listed when he checked last time.

Why are there only these two types of products?

"Because the host's level is too low."

The system's relentless attacks forced Chang Ning to face reality.

"Alright, alright."

Chang Ning closed the shop panel; he wasn't planning to buy anything. His cheat system didn't have any storage space, so there was nowhere to put it.

Bad review!

Aside from target practice, they usually keep their guns and ammunition separate and stored.

If the bullet in his body is discovered now, Chang Ning won't be able to explain it no matter how many mouths he has.

He seemed to hear a system notification sound during his shooting practice today, but Chang Ning was focused on the training and didn't notice it.

"Open it and take a look."

Chang Ning opened the system panel and saw that his "Sniper Rifle Shooting" experience bar had changed.

Name: Chang Ning

"Age: 19 years old"

Military Rank: Second Lieutenant (Platoon Leader)

Merit Points: 200

"Stamina: 410 / ??? (The average stamina for an adult male is 100)"

"Rifle Shooting: 100/100↑ (Upgradeable)"

"Knife Skill: 100/100 (Cannot be upgraded)"

Sniper Rifle Shooting: 100/100↑ (Upgradeable)

"Note: The level of this system is linked to the host's military rank. Please strive hard!"

"Wow, I'm max level!"

Seeing that his experience bar had been fully upgraded, Chang Ning was filled with joy. This was a testament to his hard work in training.

Chang Ning clicked the upgrade button without hesitation.

System: "Confirm upgrade?"

Chang Ning: "Confirmed."

System: "Upgrade successful!"

After Chang Ning reopened the system panel, his information remained unchanged, but his experience bar had changed.

The experience bars for "Rifle Shooting" and "Sniper Rifle Shooting" have been merged into "Shooting Mastery".

The required experience points for upgrading have increased to 1000.

According to the system's explanation, after the upgrade, Chang Ning can use his previous shooting assistance function no matter what gun he uses.

Aside from assault rifles and sniper rifles, other guns aren't quite as insane to use, but they're still better than what a normal person can do.

Within the effective firing range, the hit rate will be increased. This means that once Chang Ning becomes proficient in using other firearms, basically no one in the field of firearms can beat him.

Chang Ning's spirits, dampened by the impact of the in-game store, were slightly soothed by the benefits of leveling up her experience bar.

"Chang Ning, what are you daydreaming about? Come and play cards."

Xiao Zhuang, holding a deck of cards, sat down on a small stool in front of Chang Ning and said with a smile.

Today, Miao Lian went to a meeting at the regimental headquarters without Xiao Zhuang, so Xiao Zhuang could conveniently slack off.

So whenever he has free time, he asks Chang Ning to play cards with him.

"Why are we playing cards? I still need to write an application." Chang Ning declined Xiao Zhuang's invitation.

"No, why are you going to Wolf Fang too? With your military skills, you can achieve a lot even without Wolf Fang. Why do you have to go to the special forces to be tortured?"

Xiao Zhuang didn't understand Chang Ning's actions, or rather, he didn't understand the actions of his comrades in the entire company.

Furthermore, he didn't have a good impression of the high school team, so he extended that same affection to the Wolf Fang team as well.

“I promised Chen Pai that I would help him fulfill his dream of becoming a special forces soldier. Besides, I also want to go to Langya to see what it's like.”

Xiao Zhuang's ideological work needs to be done by Miao Lian; Chang Ning doesn't intend to bother explaining to him what special forces mean to reconnaissance soldiers.

"Okay, I'll go check out the other classes."

Xiao Zhuang didn't believe that everyone in the company wanted to join the special forces; there must be a few who didn't.

Just as Xiao Zhuang stood up, the whistle for an emergency assembly sounded.

At this moment, no matter what everyone in the company is doing, even if they are going to the toilet, they must immediately pull up their pants and go downstairs to assemble!
There will be another chapter at 10 PM.
