Squeaking, Mai Fan's car arrived at the station. As soon as the door opened, an alien like a big cockroach extended its tentacles into the car.
Ta-ta-ta, the two whiskers of the big cockroach touched Mai Fan's arm and luggage, confirming Mai Fan's identity.
"Reserve Private Mai Fan, you are welcome to report to the recruit station."
"Lucky boy, come with me. The stationmaster of the 9527 recruitment point wants to see you."
Mai Fan put the leather shoes that he had just pulled off out of reflex back on his feet.
When he went on a business trip to the south, his favorite thing to wear were leather shoes with hard rubber soles.
It is said that if you encounter a cockroach, you cannot kill it directly, as its offspring will fly everywhere along with the soles of your shoes.
But he is not from the South. The dead cockroach cubs swimming around have nothing to do with the soles of his shoes.
Mai Fan looked very calm, nodded and said: "Okay."
He put his luggage in his backpack and got out of the car with the big cockroach.
The journey from the station to the recruitment point only takes more than a minute.
Military load-bearing tracks are dual-purpose.
Mai Fan, the big cockroach, and a bunch of supplies flowed into the recruiting station.
A large number of small boxes are field training packages prepared for new recruits.
The warehouse at the recruitment point was automatically unloaded.
Mai Fan and the big cockroach were transported directly into the webmaster's office.
A small house located above the supplies warehouse.
Mai Fan waited for the big cockroach to knock on the door and go in to report.
When he walked in, even though he was mentally prepared, he was still startled by the commander of the recruiting station.
'Mistweed...a big praying mantis.'
Probably in order to appear more approachable, the big mantis let the auxiliary device transform into a pair of human hands, and then he put them on his two big mantis arms.
Mai Fan watched the Popeye-like fist wave under the tip of his nose and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Hi! Recruit, tell me why you signed up to join the army."
Mai Fan took back his words and told the truth.
"For equality and status."
No matter what the circumstances, these two are the general trends pursued by the race.
"Such a good recruit, Mai Fan, can you tell me why you, Earthlings, are the only ones reporting?"
Mai Fan also understood at this time.
He was actually a little strange: "Isn't the reporting time the one-month preparation time you arranged?"
"We humans on Earth are still in the process of migrating in stages."
"When most people settle down, those people will start reporting one after another."
The webmaster didn't understand either: "But, as far as I know, the number of people who have arrived exceeds 100 million, right?"
"The number of approved conscription applications submitted to me is already 10,000."
"But now, you are the only one reporting. Don't you think the application rate is a bit low?"
Turns out that was what I was worried about.
Mai Fan smiled: "This may have something to do with the customs over there."
"There is a saying on earth that says never fight an uncertain battle."
"In a month, everyone will choose the most comfortable reporting time."
"They will spend a few days inquiring about the situation in the army and studying the materials assigned to the new recruits."
"Find a way to buy some things you think are useful and bring them here."
There are even some procrastinators who will not report in advance until the last minute.
But Mai Fan would not say this.
The big mantis opposite looks very anxious, so you should not put any more psychological pressure on the other person.
After understanding Mai Fan's explanation, Big Mantis realized that the reporting time was a bit too long.
After the third batch of Earthlings arrived, it was another stage to apply for enlistment.
The recruitment rate of a planet cannot be seen until almost before the deadline...
I just hope the number of applications is good enough.
Let’s make up for the lack of time.
The webmaster became a little serious when he thought of this. He said to Mai Fan: "I want to say that sometimes, this kind of thinking is wrong."
"Now that we have received feedback, we must complete the task in the shortest possible time."
"As for new recruit Mai Fan, you have done quite well at this point."
"What reward do you want for being the first to report on Nova?"
Mai Fan knew that his opportunity had come.
The reason why he came to report so early was to gamble on this opportunity.
Mai Fan immediately made his request to the commander of the recruit station.
"I want to know the direction of recruit training and the corresponding arms."
"I want to know the units with the greatest promotion potential and the departments with the least potential for development."
"I also want to know whether there is a direct relationship between the overall quality rating of soldiers and their race."
"Finally, will there be any material reward for the first soldier to report?"
It's really rude of him to ask for it.
However, the three points he mentioned before will basically be a secret known to everyone after he formally enters the army.
It is not impossible to tell him in advance so that he can plan and prepare during the training.
As for the last point, what a coincidence, it really does exist.
There are rewards for all firsts in the military.
A new recruit who needs training is not a truly qualified soldier.
They may be eliminated at any time during the training process.
Therefore, the first-place reward will be relatively small.
But for a new recruit, it was already a lot.
"Yes, first of all, we will give you a one-month assessment opportunity. If the assessment in the first month does not meet the standards, the first one to report will have a second chance."
"If you can reach the passing mark in the second month, you will not be directly returned to your original planet."
"Also, during the training period, there will be an enlistment subsidy every month, which is thirty star domain coins."
"The first one to report will be rewarded with five more star field coins every month."
"Last and most important, you have a five-point score, which is called the Fearless Point."
Yes, whether new recruits can pass the final training and be formally recruited into the army still requires a training and assessment process.
Each stage has its own standards.
There is only one way for those who fail to meet the standards, and that is to be dismissed.
Whether it meets the standard or not requires a specific thing to measure.
Points are the most specific thing for this standard evaluation.
In the first month, the recruit's points must reach ten.
Mai Fan did nothing and started with five.
If this is not a material reward, then what is a reward?
Mai Fan was very satisfied with this, and then waited very quietly for the webmaster to make follow-up arrangements for him.
After knowing that the people on earth seemed to have procrastination, the big mantis' attention was drawn away from Mai Fan.
Next, the big cockroach took Mai Fan away and arranged a semi-old dormitory for him.
