The abyss invades, I control the power of darkness.

Chapter 228: Battle exploits, military rank, stowaway?
Daxia military, universities, night watchmen, aristocratic families...

Are they specifically mentioning these places because most of the people who can come to the abyss come from these places?
Although he was curious, Qin Jinnian didn't ask or say anything more. He just smiled and exchanged greetings with them.

Then someone proposed to invite Qin Jinnian to dinner, but Qin Jinnian declined.

He was new to the abyss, so it would be helpful to get to know more divine beings and get some information.

But things are not rushed.

He inquires about other people's information, and others are also very interested in him now. When he inquires about information, both parties will definitely expose something.

For now, he doesn't plan to reveal too much.

Because it would take away a lot of the mystique of 'Breaking Dawn'.

At the same time, he also felt that, in the eyes of outsiders, the connection between 'Breaking Dawn' and the Daxia official was a little too close.

This is not what Qin Jinnian wants to see.

Neatly listed among them.

Four hours later.

When you walk into it, you will first see a hall. In this hall, there are many stalls, which look like a country fair. Buyers and stall owners are haggling over prices, which is very lively.

Qin Jinnian came to a circular building with a large area and three floors.

After landing, his figure changed for a while, and in the end, he turned into another person...

……

Advanced materials, weapon materials, spiritual fruits that increase life and spirit, crystals, etc...

They take action...

Many god-level experts gave some orders to some people.

He had the purpose of this time in mind.

There are all kinds of things, and the whole first floor is very noisy.

Qin Jinnian thought for a while and walked into one of the shops with relatively few people. The waiter who looked after the store came to greet him immediately.

Qin Jinnian curiously walked in and looked around. There was obviously some force supervising the hall. There were people patrolling at all times to maintain order and prevent forced buying and selling, or even robbery.

……

For example, fruits that increase vitality, spiritual essence that increases spiritual power, ores with a large amount of abyssal spiritual energy, spiritual crystals, etc...

This is the place that specializes in selling abyssal materials.

"She gave her name, Fifth Hatsune...check her background."

The second floor is relatively more formal, with shops and lots of people. In these shops, in addition to materials of levels one to six, there are also materials of levels seven to ten.

This made many god-level experts startled, and then their eyes flashed.

He listened for a while and found that the price was very cheap... at least, much cheaper than materials on earth.

For this reason, Qin Jinnian declined the invitation of these god-level experts. Even though they repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, Qin Jinnian still smiled and waved his hands, and finally walked away.

He needed to maintain the 'independence' and 'mystery' of 'Daybreak'.

In addition to advanced materials, there are also a large number of genius treasures unique to the abyss.

……

He thought thoughtfully for a while, then stepped up to the second floor.

Fifth Hatsune, as a very beautiful woman, it seems that it is not very convenient to move in the abyss, and it is easier for men.

He didn't go to the Night Watch with Qin Fang for this reason... Otherwise, where could it be easier to find out information than at the Night Watch headquarters in Tianyuan City?
What happened in Yuedu was forced to do nothing, and many people in the international community forcibly linked Dawn and Daxia officials together.

"Hello, sir, welcome to the Xu family material store. What do you need?"

After wandering around for a while, he confirmed that it was exactly what the person who told him about this place said... On the first floor, only abyssal materials below level six were generally sold.

……

Not even a name was left.

He transformed into a passerby face, wore a casual suit, and walked onto the street.

After leaving this area, Qin Jinnian flew dozens of kilometers before stopping in another area.

Tianyuan City is very big. When he arrived here, Qin Jinnian disappeared in mid-air in a trance, and when he reappeared, he was already in an uninhabited corner.

"Let's first figure out where to get the God-level abyss materials and what exactly they need."

So now, in the short term, he has no plans to establish any deep relationships with the people in the abyss.

It’s better to figure out some things in the abyss first, and then make long-term plans.

Otherwise, being too involved with the authorities will make it easy for him to be constrained in his future actions.

The purpose of coming to the abyss is to obtain the god-level abyss materials, and then let my cultivation level break through to see what wonderful changes will occur.

Now that he has reached the abyss, he does not want this impression to continue to deepen.

As for the information about the God-level abyss materials, it shouldn’t be difficult to find out, right?
Thinking in his mind, he took to the streets...

"Are there any advanced materials for level 10?" Qin Jinnian asked directly.

"Are there tenth level advanced materials? There are some, thirteen materials are complete."

The waiter responded quickly with a smile, and then led Qin Jinnian to a counter, pointed at the items on the counter and introduced with a smile: "Magic crystals, phantom feathers, black scales, magic crystal sand, spiritual star bark... …There are thirteen kinds in total. The portions are sufficient. How many do guests need?”

"Standard portion, how much is the total?"

Qin Jinnian asked.

"The standard portion is a total of five million Tianyuan coins."

"Do you accept earth coins?"

"Ah? Sorry, Earth coins are not accepted." The waiter shook his head.

Qin Jinnian nodded, and then asked: "Besides Tianyuan coins, what other conditions are needed?"

"Of course it's the military rank. You must have the military rank of colonel or above to purchase it." The waiter said with a smile.

Qin Jinnian nodded when he heard this, but sighed softly in his heart.

Sure enough, abyssal materials are really easy to obtain in the abyss.

But the premise is... you have enough military rank.

The military merit system is not only a standard for measuring the number of enemies killed in the abyss, nor is it just a way to decide subordinates and facilitate command in critical moments... it is also a pass for all human cities in the abyss.

After all, there are still many rapes.

For example, those members of the evil church.

The emergence of the military merit system has effectively prevented those evil church believers from infiltrating human society.

After all, military merit, in addition to the 'mission military merit' that is officially recognized by the four countries and is added to you by operating the system, what is more important is the 'enemy-killing military merit' for killing the abyssal species.

If you accumulate military merit to a certain level, you will be promoted to military rank.

But promotion to the military ranks requires military merit...and not just military merit.

It is known that military merit can be roughly divided into two types.

One is the 'military merit of killing enemies' recorded by Gaia.

The other type is the 'mission military merit' issued by the four countries.

Both are military merits, but the importance...the former takes far priority over the latter.

Not to mention anything else, every time you are promoted to a military rank, there are requirements for the 'Killing Enemy Merit'.

For example, those who enter the Abyss through formal channels for the first time will have an initial military rank of 'Corporal'. To be promoted to 'sergeant', one hundred military merits are required.

But this hundred military merits are useless just relying on the 'mission military merits' given by the four countries... Among them, at least ten points must be 'enemy-killing military merits'.

As for the 'military merit for killing the enemy', only Gaia is qualified to give it. Gaia will give it to you because it believes you killed the abyssal species.

This greatly reduces the risk of the Evil Church getting in... After all, for the members of the Evil Church, the Abyssal Seeds are their gods... How can they dare to 'kill gods'?
And as the military rank increases, the proportion of "military merit of killing the enemy" will become larger and larger.

Even if you obtain the 'Millions of Mission Military Merits', if you do not have enough 'Military Merits for Killing Enemies', you will not be allowed to be promoted to military rank. This is a unified consensus reached by the four countries.

In other words, if you want to survive in Tianyuan City... or in the human city in the abyss, 'killing enemies with military merit' is a must.

The 'Killing Enemy Military Merits' will be 'consumed', but the record will be retained.

For example, you received a total of one million "military merit for killing enemies". You used this part of the military merit to exchange various materials with the four countries, and then spent all the "one million".

But the record will still be retained. In Gaia, your "killing military merits" will not change...it just no longer has the currency attribute.

This is also the information Qin Jinnian obtained in the past four hours.

In Tianyuan City, military rank is required to purchase anything.

It's just different levels.

For example, the stall owners on the first floor below sell abyssal materials in bulk, which can only be purchased after reaching the military rank.

For example, for first-level materials, the corporal level may be enough. But second-level materials may require the rank of sergeant. The third level may require the rank of sergeant...

No, no matter how much money I have, I can't sell it to you...at least, not on the surface.

As for the fake military rank?
That is impossible.

"Welcome, Colonel Li Yuan."

From the shop next door, a gentle mechanical female voice came.

Qin Jinnian looked over and saw a man standing on a small square in these shops, and an illusory shadow appeared above the man's head.

There are things like claw marks among them.

There are three rows of claw marks in green, blue and purple.

There are nine claw marks in each row.

This man has two purple claw marks, four blue claw marks, and seven green claw marks.

These are the 'military merits of killing the enemy'.

It is said that every time an abyssal species or weirdo is killed, Gaia's aura will leave a 'claw mark'. Depending on the strength of the abyssal species and the weirdness, the colors left behind are also different.

Green is the most common, basically weird species below level five... blue is above level five and below level seven. Purple is above the eighth level and below the tenth level.

Judging from the claw marks on this man's head, he had killed at least two abyssal species of level eight or above, and four abyssal species of level five to seven. And dozens of abyssal species below level five...

Well, you can't get a 'green claw mark' by killing one of the abyssal species below level five. But based on strength and weakness.

You may have to kill more than a dozen first-order abyss species to get a 'green claw mark'. Maybe a fifth-level abyssal species can also get a 'green claw mark'.

Green claw marks are basically equal to one hundred military merits.

Blue is equivalent to a thousand military merits.

Purple is equivalent to ten thousand military merits.

Above that, there are golden claw marks...each one is equivalent to one hundred thousand military merits.

This probably corresponds to the military ranks of 'sergeant level, lieutenant level, school level'... and then going up to 'general level'.

Note that this is the 'military merit of killing the enemy'.

It does not represent absolute military rank.

Because the components of military merit include 'mission military merit'...the two combined together constitute the military rank.

However, as you get to the later stage, if you want to be promoted to 'military rank', the proportion of 'killing enemy military merit' will become higher and higher.

I heard that when you reach the general level, you only recognize the merit of "killing the enemy". The role of mission military merit has been infinitely weakened... basically only the monetary attribute remains.

Treasures can be exchanged for treasures from high-level officials in the Four Kingdoms.

The governments of the four countries have no right to refuse the exchange of military achievements for treasures. Once you refuse, it will be equivalent to breaking up with the other three countries.

No one dares to bear such an ending.

Thinking quickly about the information he had gleaned, Qin Jinnian suddenly said, "Can I see my military rank?"

He has killed a lot of weird and evil churches on the earth, and even the god-level abyssal species have been killed by him several times... I wonder if he has military merit?
The waiter was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Of course it's okay."

He immediately guided Qin Jinnian to stand in the small square.

After Qin Jinnian stood up, the small grid buzzed slightly, and then a warm breath surged from under his feet, and a shadow appeared above Qin Jinnian's head.

result……

But not a single claw mark appeared.

"Forehead……"

This result was obviously beyond Qin Jinnian's expectation.

The waiter was stunned for a moment and looked at Qin Jinnian suspiciously.

No, killing weirdos on earth, etc., doesn’t count as military merit?

Qin Jinnian was a little confused.

At this time, an electronic sound suddenly appeared.

"Illegal stowaways found have no military records."

"Ok??"

Qin Jinnian was stunned for a moment, but then he saw the waiter's face changed drastically and he wanted to say something.

Qin Jinnian had already ducked behind him and pinched his neck gently, causing him to pass out immediately.

Before Qin Jinnian could make his next move, an angry voice could be heard: "How dare you come to my Daxia Chamber of Commerce to cause trouble? You are looking for death!!!"

A golden light swept over from a distance.

Qin Jinnian was extremely speechless, but he couldn't explain it, so he simply took a step and disappeared.

call out! !

A golden figure appeared in the shop the moment Qin Jinnian disappeared.

When he saw Qin Jinnian's figure disappearing, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and then a gloomy look appeared in his eyes.

"team leader!"

"what's the situation?"

Soon, figures gathered quickly.

These people are all wearing uniform services.

The aura is powerful, and he looks like he is basically a tenth-level powerhouse.

The first golden figure looked at the waiter who was lying limply on the ground, and found that he was still breathing. He frowned slightly, and then said coldly: "There is a space stowaway entering... Huh, he is quite brave."

"Huh? A space stowaway?"

Everyone behind him was shocked.

The golden figure looked around, but in the end he frowned. After thinking for a while, he said: "A space stowaway, and he should be a god-level stowaway. If he comes here in this way, he is probably those rats. He can't be without aim... Everyone, keep your spirits up and don’t let him take advantage of this.”

Everyone's hearts trembled, and they quickly said: "Yes!"

Then, they began to patrol seriously.

And at the same time.

A few kilometers away, Qin Jinnian's figure appeared in a corner, his expression a little speechless...

"What is this? An undocumented person? A stowaway?"

In other words, this military merit system has no chance with him?

What's more important is...at dawn in the future, in this abyss, there will be no chance of military rank?

"The problem is a bit serious..."

He frowned.
