MTL - My Chip that Disguises Itself as a Cell-Chapter 202 Out of town (2/3)

   Chapter 202 Out of the City (23)

   "No need, sir, your rank: black iron, it shows that you are our own people in Zhongyun Kingdom, which is our own level." A soldier explained.

   "Uh, so that's the case, so what is the meaning of this 'black iron'?" Lin Zhendong asked while playing with the cards.

   "It is calculated according to your contribution to the base. After reaching a certain contribution, it will be automatically upgraded to bronze, then silver, gold and other levels."

   "The improvement of the level is related to the authority. With your current black iron level, you can only enter and exit the base freely. There are no discounts for purchasing supplies or resting in the base."

   Dabing said cracklingly.

   "How is that contribution calculated? What is called contribution?" Lin Zhendong asked.

   "For example, if a monster comes to attack the base, help the base to defend, and kill the monster, it is considered a meritorious service." A soldier said.

   "Just such a direction of contribution value? Don't count the materials donated to the base?" Lin Zhendong asked again.

   "It doesn't count. Only when monsters attack the base, help the base defend, and kill monsters at this time, will they be counted as contribution points." Da Bing said.

  Lin Zhendong nodded. Only guarding the base is considered a contribution value. It seems that it is to prevent people with deep pockets from donating a large amount of supplies to directly upgrade the level.

   Originally, Lin Zhendong wanted to ask some questions, but he saw the impatient expressions on the faces of the two soldiers, and the old man Yang was smoking a cigarette over there again and did not speak.

   Suddenly came over, this is a subsidy for taking customers! I am in the way here!

  So Lin Zhendong stopped asking, turned around and walked out of the room.

   Sure enough, the two soldiers who had been following him before did not come out.

   Walking out of the house, the first thing I saw was the huge moon above my head.

  In this world, the moon is the sun? But the sun is the moon? What a strange rule.

   And look at this base is quite big, it is the 34th base of Zhongyun Kingdom.

  How come Zhongyun Kingdom didn't reveal anything about the world here?

   It is normal not to leak this matter to the public, but why not leak it to people in the system?

   Am I not qualified as a second-level official?

  Those two soldiers from the Secret Service still call themselves officers.

  They can all be stationed here, but they don't know anything about it.

  Maybe this has something to do with not really starting to work?

   After all, I still have to go to university. People who want to come to the Special Security Department consciously block some information from themselves, and they should only know some information after they have formally entered the job.

  Well, if I were the boss, I would definitely not let him know too much information when I saw such a famous college student under my command.

  Because speaking of it, this is an outsider, not a real one.

   Lin Zhendong wanted to understand these things, but he also calmed down his mentality. Only then did he carefully look left and right to look at the base.

   It is indeed a base, and the area is not large, only about 50 mu of land.

  A huge square that occupies almost one-tenth of the area is in the center of the base.

   Flat, empty, nothing.

   Lin Zhendong was dumbfounded.

  This circular square is surrounded by low stone houses.

   And the layout is very weird. One building is recessed here, and the other is protruding there. Anyway, the buildings surrounding the square are not even.

  Lin Zhendong looked east and west, and most of the buildings were closed with big iron gates.

  The only buildings with open doors are the one where the monthly pass card is paid. It is like a bank counter in an old movie, where all counting is done by hand, but there is only one middle-aged woman in charge.

  One is a place to buy and sell various monster materials, and there are two young male and female waiters in charge.

  But there is only a price list, and no goods, and the two young people are indifferent.

  After asking a few times but no one responded, Lin Zhendong had no choice but to come out in despair.

  The other building is considered the largest building, at least over 500 square meters, and there are several large pillars that cannot be carried by one person supporting the ceiling.

   This place is the public office of the base, which is considered to be responsible for the affairs management of the base.

  Entering here, Lin Zhendong suddenly felt the kind of government agency that is unique in legends, difficult to enter, ugly, and difficult to handle.

   After entering anyway, he was questioned by heavily armed security guards and checked his new ID.

  When the security guard saw the words "Black Iron", his face clearly showed contempt.

  He threw the certificate back to Lin Zhendong, and said frivolously, "What are you doing here? You have nothing to do and leave, don't make trouble!"

   "Uh, I want to ask how to leave the inner world?" Lin Zhendong asked.

"Xiao Xinding, come in and wander around without knowing anything!" The security guard muttered, and then said angrily: "There is a building with a red-painted gate on the other side of the square, and there is a machine inside. You can leave the other world."

  Then, the security guard immediately threw him out and warned him not to come to this official institution if he had nothing to do. This is a government institution, not a place for you to visit!

  Seeing the security guard returning to the building triumphantly, Lin Zhendong who was standing outside the door froze immediately.

  I don’t even know what’s going on with this base. I feel that the government affairs of this base are very similar to what Zhongyun Kingdom was like decades ago.

  At that time, the government officials were all awesome, as if they were the king of heaven, and they dared to show embarrassment to anyone who came.

  The arrogance of those people at that time was exactly the same as the government officials in this base now.

   Similarly, Lin Zhendong also knew how to go back. He did see a building with a red door before, but because the door was closed, he didn't go forward. It turns out that there is the place to leave!

  Now that he knows the way to go back, Lin Zhendong is not nervous anymore, and continues to browse the base.

  The outermost perimeter of the base is a wall that is not high, only more than three meters.

   But it is thick, at least three meters thick.

  Although it is strange why the wall is not high, but since this is Base 34, there must be a reason why they built it like this.

  There are no soldiers guarding the walls, and there is only one gate on the four walls, and two heavily armed soldiers stand at the gate.

  Lin Zhendong also took a tour of the entire base. In addition to the left-behind personnel of the base, he also saw many people rushing out of the base quickly, and the two guards did not respond at all.

   I just didn't see anyone coming back, and I don't know what the rules are.

  Guarding himself with a shadow, Lin Zhendong, who should not encounter any danger, couldn't help but walked towards the city gate.

   First, they took out their brand new base access certificates to show, and then each of them lost a pack of cigarettes.

   Seeing the two soldiers accepting his cigarettes, Lin Zhendong smiled. He took out one and held one in his mouth. Then he handed two cigarettes to the two soldiers and helped them light them.

  After everyone took a puff of smoke, Lin Zhendong asked like an old acquaintance: "Both brothers, the younger brother is new here. Is there anything to pay attention to outside?"

"Outside, just don't approach when you see extraordinary battles. When you see the lair erupting, first weigh your own strength. Before you make a profit, you should evacuate quickly. Only these two things need to be paid attention to." The soldier on the left is very honest. to remind.

The one on the right smiled and said: "You newcomer, don't go so far, just hang around within a 50-mile radius of the base radiation. If you leave this range, it is the territory of other people's homes. They are not very friendly to people in the system like us." , life is in danger or not, but the belongings on the body will definitely be looted."

   "Huh? So bold? Their members have to come out of our base, right? Are you afraid that we will make things difficult for them?" Lin Zhendong asked in astonishment.

  The soldier on the left turned towards the city and murmured: "Have you been to several official websites? Have you seen their attitude?"

  Lin Zhendong nodded.

  The soldier on the right laughed and said, "It's because our side made things difficult for their members that they made things difficult for us!"

   "Uh, won't you change it?" Lin Zhendong was a little speechless.

   "How to change it? We are from the Secret Service and they are from the Ministry of Internal Affairs. The two departments are more exaggerated than the difference between heaven and earth."

"Besides guarding the gate, the staff of our Secret Service can hang around for a while, so they can only stick to the office. In addition, there is no Internet and no entertainment here. Over time, everyone is very anxious. If they don't do anything, they will obey the discipline. What more can you ask for?"

   "Yes, anyway, the higher-ups don't have any requirements for our bases, as long as the bases exist, everyone can do whatever they want."

The soldier on the left shook a cigarette in his mouth: "In the world, we belong to the sentinels, dare to accept the cigarette? Just take it to confinement. Here, as long as we don't leave the post, we can do whatever we want. It is required to be completely in harmony with the world. sample."

  The soldier on the right smiled wryly: "I've been on duty here for a while, and I have to go through rigorous training for at least half a year after I go back, or I won't be able to adapt to the original rules at all."

  Listening to the two soldiers nagging for a while, Lin Zhendong suddenly realized that the soldiers and those personnel who were placed to serve in this base were actually hard work.

   And because of confidentiality requirements, they have not been able to replace rotations on a large scale.

   And the higher-ups only require the existence of the base, which can control the source of entering the inner world, and there is no other pursuit.

  Actually, this is very weird. Controlling the source of entering the inner world, in fact, there are many ways to make this base bigger and stronger, but I don’t know what the higher-ups are worried about, and they almost maintain the base in a stock-raising manner.

  Shaking his head, there must be such a need to implement this matter. Don't be too self-righteous if you don't know how to do it.

   After a while, since he knew that the radius of 50 kilometers from this base was safe, Lin Zhendong patted his **** to bid farewell to the soldiers and walked out of the city gate.

   Seeing Lin Zhendong's figure disappear from sight, the two soldiers suddenly laughed, and one was coughing endlessly because of the smoke.

   "Tsk tsk, these young people don't have the slightest sense of defense. They think everyone is their own, so they just believe what they listen to." The soldier on the left said with smoke.

  The coughing soldier on the right breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "We didn't lie to him, there is really no danger."

   "There is no danger, but it depends on whether he can survive until someone destroys the lair and rescues him." The soldier on the left said in a flat tone.

   "Maybe he was lucky. He walked around and didn't come across a single erupting lair." The soldier on the right laughed.

   "Hey, do you think it's possible? Within a hundred miles, a lair erupts every minute. How could he not encounter a lair while walking outside? If so, tell him to go back and buy a lottery ticket!" said the soldier on the left, puffing out his cigarette.

   "That's right, luck is so against the sky, you really should buy a lottery ticket!" The soldier on the right took out his cigarette again and lit it.

   "This day will end in which year and month. I really hope that a lot of powerful monsters will appear and destroy this base directly." The soldier on the left said leisurely.

   "I can't see it. As soon as the monsters attack the city, the base with few people will be crowded immediately. People are waiting for this opportunity to collect contribution points." Said the soldier on the right.

   "Hey, boring life, why did I sign up to be on duty here!" The soldier on the left said with emotion.

   "Life is bad, the salary is high, so what if the rank is promoted, I can't enjoy it. The family is so happy that we have forgotten about us." Said the soldier on the right.

  The soldier on the left fell silent, and the two of them just smoked in silence for a while.
