The job change is a bizarre and calamity; the nation begs me to tone it down.
Chapter 17: Overturning the Existing Career System!
Jiang Shu also obediently came over, opened her tablet, and prepared to add information at any time.
"Our God-Slaying Army, although it has not been established for long and cannot compare with the well-established and powerful First Army, is still well-known throughout the military for its combat power and madness."
Su Qiong swirled her wine glass: "We mainly target high-risk dungeons, the Abyss, and unexplored areas, so the casualty rate is not low, but correspondingly, the advancement speed and resource acquisition are also the fastest."
Gu Xu nodded. High risk, high reward—that makes perfect sense.
"As for your compensation..."
Su Qiong paused, her eyes turning serious: "I wasn't joking about the 'Crown Prince' I mentioned in the car earlier. The legion has a dedicated training system for strategic talents like you."
"First, you will have a dedicated strategy team."
"A raiding party?" Gu Xu asked, somewhat surprised. "Bodyguards?"
"What are you thinking? It's your brain!"
Su Qiong pointed to her temple: "Among these people, there are data analysts, tactical planners, monster weakness experts, equipment matching consultants, and even a counselor specifically responsible for your mental health. They don't need to go to the battlefield; their only task is to revolve around you."
Jiang Shu added from the side, "That's right. From now on, for every dungeon you enter and every type of monster you face, the advisory team will calculate the best skill release order, movement route, and equipment selection for you in advance."
"Even how you allocate the attribute points you gain each level up will be simulated and calculated hundreds of times to ensure that not a single point is wasted."
Gu Xu was secretly astonished upon hearing this.
Is this the prestige of the national team?
In the past, I had to look up guides for myself when playing games. Now, a group of top experts write guides for me, and they are updated in real time.
"In fact, theoretically speaking, only the legion commander, chief of staff, and deputy legion commander should have such privileges in the expedition team!"
"Even ordinary geniuses wouldn't have a strategy team like this, but you're too special!"
"So we can only offer the best possible treatment."
"Speaking of which... I really want to introduce you to some of our brothers from the Godslayer Army!"
"However... they all have missions to complete right now, so we'll have to find another opportunity later!"
Gu Xu had no regrets.
After all, there's plenty of time in the future!
There will always be a chance to meet.
"Let's get back to the topic of resources."
Su Qiong continued, "As long as it's for getting stronger, you can freely move the equipment, skill books, and potions in the warehouse. Of course, I'll handle the approval process; you just need to sign off."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xu nodded seriously. It seemed that the atmosphere among the higher-ups of the God-Slaying Army was much more relaxed than he had imagined.
As they were talking, the cabin loudspeaker suddenly came on.
"Attention passengers, we are about to arrive at Longjing, the capital of the Shenxia Empire. The aircraft will begin its descent soon. Please fasten your seatbelts."
Gu Xu subconsciously looked out the window.
As the clouds dispersed, a colossal city of breathtaking grandeur suddenly came into view without warning.
It's huge! It's way too big.
This was Gu Xu's first reaction.
If Tianqi City is an island, then Longjing before us is a vast continent.
Countless towering skyscrapers stand tall, and a dense array of aircraft shuttle through the air like worker bees, forming a three-dimensional transportation network.
And amidst that forest of steel and concrete, one can occasionally see various dazzling magical lights flashing.
"That's the Empire State Building, that's the headquarters of the Professionals' Guild, that floating in the air is the Royal Magic Academy, and over there..."
Jiang Shu pointed down and enthusiastically introduced the area.
Even thousands of meters in the air, Gu Xu could still feel the vibrant life force emanating from this city. It was a place where the empire's most powerful figures, most prosperous commerce, and most core power converged.
"Is this Dragon Capital...?"
Gu Xu muttered to himself.
Compared to the ordinary people he saw in Tianqi City who were crying because they hadn't awakened their professions, everyone here seemed to be in a hurry, full of confidence and strength.
……
With a slight vibration as the landing gear touched the ground, the aircraft smoothly taxied to the tarmac.
The hatch opened, and a blast of air mixed with the smell of dirt and gunpowder hit us.
The air here seems a bit rougher than in the city.
Ground support vehicles that had been waiting for a long time quickly surrounded them.
"Let's go, Your Highness."
Since the procedures had been arranged in advance, Su Qiong went to handle the approval work, while Jiang Shu took Gu Xu into an internal commuter vehicle and drove deeper into the base.
The two passed through the heavily armed guard posts and entered a building that was entirely silver-white and shaped like a giant space capsule.
As soon as you enter, a cool smell mixed with high concentrations of ozone and some unknown medicine hits you.
The air here seems to have been filtered.
Every breath exudes a high-class feel, as if "the budget is burning."
Jiang Shu carried a tactical backpack, yet walked with the lightness of a deer.
Her ponytail swayed back and forth behind her head.
As she led the way, she pointed with her little finger like a dutiful tour guide.
"Your Highness, this is the medical center of our God-Slaying Army. Don't be fooled by its cold exterior; the equipment inside is the most advanced in the entire empire."
"See that transparent eggshell-shaped chamber? That's a deep tissue repair device. As long as you're not completely dead, you can lie in it for half an hour and be jumping around again."
"And over there, that's a mental energy wave scanner, specifically for detecting soul damage, and it's also a key component of our physical examination this time."
Gu Xu followed behind, his gaze sweeping over the precision instruments made of unknown alloys that shimmered with blue light, and he couldn't help but feel a little impressed.
This is the foundation of the national team!
Before, the school clinic only had mercurochrome and band-aids. Compared to this, it was like jumping directly from a primitive tribe to the cyberpunk era.
However, Gu Xu's curious and intrigued look took on a different meaning in the eyes of the officers and professionals passing by.
The medical center has a lobby-style structure and is quite crowded.
Most of them were wounded soldiers who had just returned from the front lines or dungeons. Some had bandages wrapped around their arms, some were pale-faced, and each of them carried a chilling, bloody aura.
When Jiang Shu walked past with Gu Xu, a complete stranger, especially when she saw the conspicuous special approval document bag in Jiang Shu's hand...
Many people turned their attention to this.
Then came whispers, deliberately lowered but just loud enough for others to hear.
"Hey, who's that kid? Is Lieutenant Jiang personally leading the way?"
A burly man in a camouflage vest frowned, his eyes scrutinizing him.
"Never seen him before. He looks young, probably a new recruit."
A mage nearby, who was tending to his leg injury, shook his head, his tone tinged with sarcasm: "But look at the bag in Lieutenant Jiang's hand, isn't that an S-level resource mobilization order? And an expedited one at that."
"S-rank? Really?"
The burly man glared at him: "I heard that Old Xu in the logistics department has been as stingy as a miser lately, even my alloy battle axe was delayed for two days. What makes this kid so special?"
"Hmph, why? Because he has a good dad."
Not far away, an assassin playing with a dagger sneered.
He glanced at Gu Xu with disdain: "Look at him, there's not a single energy fluctuation in his body, and he walks loosely. He's obviously a greenhorn who's never seen blood."
"I just passed by the quartermaster's office and heard that Boss Su is going to approve a 10x experience scroll just for this kid!"
"Holy crap?! Ten times?!"
This caused an uproar among the surrounding people.
What is the concept of a 10x experience reel?
That's a top-tier luxury item that none of you here could even dream of!
That's a magical artifact that can make someone rise to the top in a short time!
These guys risked their lives to run dungeons just to accumulate some military merits to exchange for double experience potions, but this kid came along and gave them ten times the experience.
