Shen Qiu was a little surprised when he heard this. It seemed that joining was not a bad thing.
Although this extra-curricular group is a bit of a control in disguise, it is at least better than surveillance. Thinking of this, Shen Qiu typed a response.
"Yeah, I'm fine."
"By the way, let me briefly introduce you to your current identity and job content, as well as your rights and obligations."
"good."
"First of all, you are now a non-staff member of the Third Detachment of the KPI Department of District 1. You are nominally managed by the Third Detachment. Most of your tasks and actions will also be issued by the Third Detachment. Of course, it is possible that you will occasionally receive tasks assigned by the headquarters and assistance tasks issued by other detachments."
"Can you refuse?"
Shen Qiu asked curiously.
"Can!"
Yun Xiaoxi gave Shen Qiu an unexpected answer.
"Is this possible?"
Shen Qiu's eyes lit up.
"Because you are temporary workers, according to the rules you only need to meet certain targets every month. You have the right to refuse assignments that you feel are inappropriate. Of course, if you haven't met the targets for the month and it's close to the end of the month, you can't refuse."
"Very good, please continue to introduce."
"It's actually quite good to be a non-staff member. You can enjoy the same information and material databases as regular staff. The specific operation methods are all in the APP, you can study it."
"Well, it seems pretty good."
"Another point is that although you are a non-staff member, you are also a member of the KPI department. You also enjoy special law enforcement powers when performing tasks. However, it is worth noting that you do not have special law enforcement powers during non-task periods. And there is one biggest advantage, you can legally carry a gun."
"Can I carry a gun now?"
When Shen Qiu heard this, his eyes lit up. This was just like someone bringing a pillow to him when he was sleepy.
He felt that it was not a loss at all to add this one.
"Yes, but there are restrictions. At the beginning, you can only hold automatic pistols and the like."
"That's fine."
"Oh, there's one more thing I forgot to tell you. You are in the KPI department now. If you encounter civilians asking for help, you are obliged to rescue them."
"What will happen if you don't save him?"
Shen Qiu typed and asked curiously.
"It won't be a problem, but I suggest you try to rescue them. Because there are points for rescue, points are very important to us, and they are hard to earn."
"What can I do with the points?"
"Points can be exchanged for all the intelligence and information you need, and can also be directly exchanged for equipment and various items. It is also worth noting that points can also be exchanged for Alliance Coins, but Alliance Coins cannot be exchanged for points. I personally recommend that you never exchange them for Alliance Coins, it's too much of a loss!"
Yun Xiaoxi strongly reminded Shen Qiu.
"From what you said, points seem to be very important. So what are the channels for obtaining points?"
Shen Qiu became more and more interested and asked proactively.
"There are three main ways to earn points. The first way is to complete tasks. Each task will give corresponding points! This is our main source of points in the future. The second way is to exchange valuable items and intelligence for points. The third way is to earn points from people in the same department through professional skills and accepting commissions."
"I see. By the way, if the treatment of non-staff members is so good, then who would want to be a formal employee? What is the difference between the two?"
"There is definitely a difference, but I don't know how to explain it to you right now. You can think of it as one has more freedom, and the other has better benefits."
Yun Xiaoxi replied hesitantly.
"Okay!"
"That's roughly the situation. You should familiarize yourself with it and study it. If you have any questions, please contact me. I will get back to you as soon as I see it."
"good."
Shen Qiu closed the chat box and began to study this APP.
Soon he found the intelligence and information module button.
Shen Qiu nodded.
Suddenly, I entered a holographic interface, which clearly displayed various categories.
Overlapping world area information, monster information, item information, awakening evolution area, special information area...
At the top of all categories, there is a free public information area.
Shen Qiu immediately clicked on the free public information, wanting to get a systematic understanding of it first.
As a result, the entire interface went dark, the operation interface disappeared, and then a line of words appeared.
"Dear Mr. Shen Qiu, before you enter the free information area, please read carefully and pay attention to the following tips."
"The free and public information you are about to see is obtained by 74,521 companions with their lives and blood, and the KPI department spent a lot of money and material resources to obtain the summary! Every piece of information and advice is extremely valuable. Any behavior of contempt is a lack of attention to one's own life. The reason why the KPI department set this information free is to increase the survival rate of all newcomers. May the blessings of all predecessors be with you..."
“Friendly reminder: Please read with a deep heart and do not leak or disclose information and materials.”
…
Shen Qiu looked at the prompt and couldn't help but stand in awe.
Soon he entered the interface, and twenty-three overlapping world categories popped up instantly.
Shen Qiu took a quick glance and quickly found information about the two areas: City of Fog and City of Mechanical Ruins.
He tried to click into the mechanical ruins city world module.
A city of mechanical ruins.
World Danger Level: D-S (tentative)
Status: Collapse, disorder, no communicable lifeforms found
Common enemies are as follows:
SW-01 Type Scavenger (the lowest level patrol guard, equipped with a common infrared sight and a 9MM caliber firearm.)
GX-01 Mechanical Dog (conventional patrol guard, equipped with metal teeth, dual 9MM caliber firearms, and self-destruct function.)
LZ-01 War Guardian Wolf Spider, (9MM Gatling gun, 16 rocket launchers, 125mm main gun, and various aiming and locking devices.)
…
Black Tongue Beast (commonly 3 meters in size, black spots and no hair, with sharp claws and teeth, and a scarlet tongue...)
…
Shen Qiu looked at the densely packed introductions of the enemies and was completely attracted.
He read it very seriously. The information he got after searching the dark web for a long time was not even enough to cover the information here.
No wonder Yun Xiaoxi said that individual people and those with KPI departments have different starting points.
This statement is not an exaggeration at all.
Two hours passed unknowingly, and Shen Qiu finished reading the information about the City of Mechanical Ruins.
He suddenly had a very intuitive understanding of that world.
The danger of the Mechanical Ruins City comes not only from those intelligent machines, but also from special alien monsters. According to the information brought back by an elder named Zhang Qi, those intelligent machines were originally used to protect the natives against aliens, but for some reason, those intelligent machines turned against them and slaughtered the natives.
