After Zero came to the trade union hall, he reported Theon's name, and was quickly taken to an elegant office. As Remut's second-in-command, Theon's office is not as spacious as Zero imagined, but it is delicate enough. Whether it is the office equipment or the leather sofa for meeting guests, they all exude the taste of the old times. These things cannot be obtained with money, which means that if Theon does not have a special hobby in this area, it means that he has a deeper and wider power that cannot be seen on the surface.
Besides Theon, there were three other people in the office.
The three were two men and one woman, and both men were Caucasian. A mercenary dressed in simple protective clothing like Zero, but a big man who was more than twice the size of Zero, with a heavy machine gun on his back. Zero's mind quickly searched for information that matched this heavy machine gun. It was an M134 aviation machine gun, usually mounted on an armed helicopter, with excellent fire suppression performance, and its maximum rate of fire was 6000/min. Rip the body of any regular creature.
Of course, the recoil of this machine gun is not something ordinary people can bear. Since this big man can use it, there is one thing for sure, that is at least the third level of strength enhancement ability. Otherwise, this person can't use this big guy.
The other man standing next to the big man was much thinner. He was wearing a trench coat and was not carrying any weapons. But standing next to him, you can feel the chill. That wasn't the sense of touch caused by murderous aura or other breaths, but a genuine coldness. If he didn't guess wrong, Zero thought that this person must be an ability user in the element domain.
As for the last woman, she has the same Asian blood as Zero. The long black hair was tied up high, not a pretty face, but a hot figure. The black tights outline the uneven figure, and the lightweight composite armor on the shoulders, chest and calves provides a certain degree of protection. And the long sword hanging obliquely on the back is reminiscent of the profession of swordsman.
Neither has the great strength of a big man with a heavy machine gun on his back, nor does he exude the breath of the elemental domain like a skinny man. Zero couldn't feel any breath from this woman, but it didn't mean that she was weak, on the contrary, she made Zero feel more dangerous.
In the wilderness, a silent poisonous snake is much more difficult than a vicious bear.
"Come on, let me introduce you. This is Zero, who has a mercenary license granted by the Parkland chaebol."
After seeing Zero come in, Theon stood up and introduced to everyone.
Under Theon's introduction, Zero also met the other three.
The man with the heavy machine gun is called Tyrannosaurus. Of course, this is not a name, but a code name. And he did, as Zero had expected, possess the ability to enhance strength at the third level, and the other abilities were at the second level to strengthen defense and specialize in heavy weapons.
The thin man's name is Lav, he's from Russia, he only has one ability, but it's a third-level mastery of water element. It is also a third-level ability user, but the power of the elemental domain is far greater than that of the fighting domain. Therefore, even though Raff's ability is not the more destructive fire element or thunder element, no one dares to underestimate him.
As for the woman with the gun on her back, her name is Su, and she is Chinese. Her abilities are relatively average, namely the second level of strength and agility proficiency, but her cold weapon specialization has reached the fifth level. As far as Zero knows, although weapon proficiency is the most common ability in the entire ability domain, once it reaches the fifth level or above, no matter what kind of weapon proficiency it can be called a master.
It is conceivable that this woman's attainments in long swords must be extraordinary.
Compared with them, Zero who only had the first level of strength and defense enhancement, plus the second level of agility enhancement was pitifully weak. And the free sight range of Ling Na's golden right eye is an auxiliary ability, and the combat power that can be blessed is limited. And Zero deliberately concealed this ability, so when his stats were reported from Theon, Zero could see both Tyrannosaurus and Raff cast disdainful glances at him.
As for Sakura, she didn't show any expression from the beginning to the end.
Theon gave a general introduction to the mission to the four present.
The goal of this promotion mission is a state university in Kadam B area, which is one of the most ideal strongholds in Remut's expansion plan. But now, the university is overrun by a group of monsters called rock spiders. This mutated creature has a rock-like outer shell. Apart from having a rock-like defense, it can also play an excellent role in concealment.
The biggest trouble is that rock spiders usually live in groups, and the monster's ability to reproduce is quite fast, which makes them one of the most difficult monsters to completely eliminate. And every spring breeding season, rock spiders will be in an extremely excited state. At this time, their danger will rise sharply.
Although they are only second-level dangerous monsters, once they act, they will be on a scale of hundreds or thousands. Just seeing this kind of scene, even the faintest people will be scared to death. During the breeding season in spring, in order to ensure enough food, rock spiders go out in groups to hunt. And the ideal place for them to hunt is naturally Remut, which has a population of 5,000.
It's not that Remut has never thought about destroying these monsters, but neither the number of soldiers nor the firepower is up to the task. With Remut's current strength, he can only protect himself to a limited extent during the breeding season.
But this time, Remut made a big determination for the expansion plan. If the situation allows, they will kill this group of monsters. But the problem is, state universities have been devastated. Collapsed school buildings, broken underground passages, etc. turned it into a complicated maze. Unless Remut has a private outer space satellite, he will be able to conduct detailed reconnaissance of the university. Otherwise, the only way to send mercenaries like Zero to go deep into the university to conduct reconnaissance is to determine where the rock spider's lair is, so that it can use limited troops to attack it at a fixed point.
The first mission of the promotion mission, that is, the initial mission, is to scout the entire university to find the nest of the rock spider. A more advanced task is to draw a detailed map of the university, including an overview of the terrain and monster distribution. As for the third-level task, it is to bring back living specimens of rock spiders, so as to help Remut's biologists find the weakness of this monster. The final ultimate task is to wipe out the rock spiders. Of course, Theon doesn't expect a few mercenaries to be able to do things that even Remut can't do.
Therefore, the meaning of the so-called ultimate mission is far greater than the reality.
After listening to Theon's overview, the Russian Raf said: "I think three people are enough for such a task, there is no need to add one more... trash."
Zero was indifferent, and said lightly: "I also don't want to act with the idiot who pants after two steps. If there is nothing else, I will take one step first."
Those with elemental abilities pay more attention to the strength of their mental strength rather than their physical strength. But no man wants to be called a softie, so the air around Raff is even colder. Seeing Zero leaving the office alone, the words "I'm going to kill you" were written in Raf's eyes full of resentment.
