Chereads / Azure Star Trail / Chapter 16 - Codename-Reboot

Chapter 16 - Codename-Reboot

 Su Bai touched a real dragon coin for the first time, in the past, he had only watched other people use them when trading.

 He hurriedly unraveled the thin rope, the small roll of dragon coins, a total of four, respectively two 100-denomination dragon coins, one 50-denomination dragon coin, and one 20-denomination dragon coin!

 Looking at such a large amount of wealth, Su Bai looked incredulous.

 The dragon coins in this world are very valuable, and will not depreciate, because all the dragon coins are uniformly issued by the Dragon Summer Kingdom, and all of them have very rare precious metals added according to the value of the denomination.

 It also means that the value of the dragon coins itself is not dependent on the issuer, but is worth that much on its own.

 The average salary in District D was at 20 dragon coins a month.

 Of course this refers to the ideal average, the reality of the rich and poor is not equal, income is also not equal, some ridiculously high, some even difficult to manage to feed!

 This 280 dragon coins is basically the income of an average person working for more than a year in the better conditions of D district.

 Also dragon coins have a lot of spending power.

 1 Dragon Coin could purchase up to 10 Synthetic Breads, and those 10 Synthetic Breads could even support a person for a month with water.

 So this amount of money was definitely a huge amount for Su Bai.

 Su Bai took this money and kept walking around the room, after a long time he stopped, he opened the bag of supplies that he had received, in it were 5 pieces of synthetic bread, and two bottles of 500ML filtered water.

 Su Bai quickly made a decision!

 Tomorrow, he would start going to look for a job! Since he was able to allocate himself a house, there was a high probability that a new position would open up after this upheaval.

 He needed to make money, and this money could not be touched until it was absolutely necessary, only by saving up enough money would he be able to leave the D6 area and head to a higher level area, that would be safe!

 Not every time he was attacked by a fae he would be so lucky to survive.

 Dragon City Area A, inside the huge auditorium.

 One by one, the urns were neatly placed, and behind each urn was placed a photo frame, all of which contained the personnel who had sacrificed their lives this time.

 The atmosphere within the entire auditorium was very heavy.

 Some low voices of crying could be faintly heard.

 The memorial service this time was very simple, after all, this incident was not honorable, and more or less, there was a desire to fade into the past earlier.

 In the center area, Han Qi stood quietly in front of four side-by-side photo frames, a silver medal hanging from her chest as she heavily saluted her companion.

 "Don't you dare come and be nice! Why is it that you alone survived when all the people of a team died." A middle-aged woman who had somewhat lost her mind and had slightly gray hair looked at Han Qi in grief.

 "Stop it!" The other family members beside her hurriedly stopped it.

 "I'm about to say that my son died! And yet she survived and got promoted! She just stepped on their corpses to get up there!"

 "Enough! Don't talk nonsense!" A middle-aged man beside him angrily yelled at him.

 "I'm about to say ..."

 "Snap!"

 A crisp ringing sound rang out.

 The atmosphere around them instantly quieted down, and the middle-aged woman covered her cheeks and eventually howled.

 Han Qi's expression grew more and more silent, and the hand on her back couldn't help but clench into a fist, her nails embedded in her flesh.

 "I'm sorry, she's a bit emotionally out of control." The middle-aged man apologized wearily.

 Han Qi shook her head and silently saluted them as well, and finally she turned around and walked towards the outside of the auditorium.

 As she walked out of the auditorium, Han Qi reached out her hand to remove the medallion on her chest! The medal stung like a needle.

 "This is your honor."

 A calm voice came from the side, interrupting Han Qi's movements.

 Han Qi twisted his head to look over, he didn't know when Zhang Ling Yue appeared next to him, Han Qi saluted and silently replied.

 "I don't want this honor, it doesn't belong to me, but to my fallen companions."

 "We are soldiers, our final destination is the battlefield, so you don't need to feel sad over their deaths, as for their families, naturally someone will take care of them, and I think they will be happy to give you credit for this honor that you will carry with you to a farther place." Zhang Ling Yue looked into the distance with her hands behind her back and said expressionlessly.

 Hearing this Han Qi slowly loosened her hand without removing the medal.

 "I've already applied to my superiors, you will be granted a place to enter the highest military academy in Dragon City for further training, this time the academy has opened a new and very important special discipline, codename-Reboot! I believe you won't disappoint me." Zhang Lingyue simply continued.

 Hearing Zhang Ling Yue's words, Han Qi was also slightly stunned, looking at Zhang Ling Yue with some incredulity as she asked.

 "Reboot? What is this?"

 "A reboot is also known as unsealing a once-banned mecha program!"

 "Wasn't this strictly forbidden by the council? How could it suddenly be activated?"

 "Why would the council want to do this, it's because another country broke the agreement and secretly started a banned mecha program, so we can't be too pedantic and stick to the rules!"

 "What about the AI?"

 "Don't worry, this time all the weapons are changed to manual and the intelligence mode is removed, just to avoid a historical tragedy."

 "I understand!"

 After Zhang Lingyue finished her explanation, she turned around and walked towards the auditorium.

 Only Han Qi was left in place.

 In District D6, Su Bai was asking store by store, store by store if they needed manpower.

 As a result, unfortunately, the answers he received were all negative.

 This was already the third day that he was looking for a job, and it was harder to find than expected.

 Su Bai helplessly squatted at the edge of the street, just at this time, Su Bai front of the street entrance there are a lot of people queuing up, under normal circumstances rarely see this kind of queuing, and there are also special soldiers to maintain order, thinking of this Su Bai walked over.

 "May I ask what this is for?" Su Bai inquired politely.

 "Doing hard labor, managing three meals." The soldier looked Su Bai up and down a few times and coldly returned.

 Hearing this, Su Bai directly walked to the end of the line to follow the queue, he was also a little curious, what was this to do? To have so much hard labor.

 Soon it was Su Bai's turn.

 The person in charge of management was a middle-aged fat man wearing a leather jacket with a bloated and greasy body.

 The fat man sat on a chair and swayed and swayed.

 "What's your name, do you have citizenship yet." The fat man just glanced at it and closed his eyes and asked absently.

 "Su Bai, have citizenship."

 "Manage three meals, do a full three days, give an extra synthetic bread every day, those with outstanding performance might even get a reward, is that clear?" Fatty didn't even bother to open his eyes.

 "Good!" Su Bai nodded.

 "Go stand aside."

 Su Bai very consciously walked to the side and stood in the crowd, here were all the drudges who had passed the screening, there were at least more than 500 people.

 When the number reached a thousand.

 The rest of the people in line dispersed.

 The greasy fat man walked up to Su Bai and the others and shouted at the top of his voice.

 "Introduce yourself, my name is Lei Dong! I'm the supervisor in charge of you this time, I've already told you about the benefits, you can rest assured that you won't lose a single point, but I'll also be honest with you, the risk of doing this is not small! Dead, disabled, don't come to me, you are worth this price, if you have a problem, you can go now!"

 The people present looked at each other, although there was some concern, but no one left, to be frank, they came to do casual work, they definitely couldn't survive.

 "Very well! Since none of them are leaving, it's settled then, every twenty people stand in a row!" Lei Dong waved his hand.

 Soon everyone present lined up.

 At this time a soldier walked up and one person took away a row of the line.
