Chapter 36: Elite or cannon fodder

A few days later, Lin Rui got out of the hospital bed. In the spring, the air in West Siberia is still a bit chilly, full of the fresh breath of the mountains and forests.
Lin Rui stood at the window and touched the wound under his ribs, still feeling pain. In this test called Thunder Operation, he was shot and broke several ribs during the subsequent torture. The other injuries were not serious. Although the face was beaten badly, and acute pneumonia was blown out by the cold air. But it's better compared to injuries.
The door of the ward was knocked. Lin Rui turned around and said, "Come in."
He thought it was a medical worker from the training camp, but a handsome middle-aged man came in. With gray hair and a sharp suit, Michelle is more like a traditional gentleman than a soldier. But his eyes still maintained a shining sharpness, like a wolf.
Michelle walked in, smiled and said, "It seems that you are recovering well."
"It's not bad. If it weren't for your torture test, I would recover faster. The actuary smashed in the back of my head, not to mention the British guy who pretended to be a Russian man. This guy is really a good thug, interrupt I lost my three ribs and many soft tissue bruises.
Lin Rui said flatly,
I still can’t lift one of my hands.

"Forget about these." Silver Wolf Michelle smiled slightly, "On the bright side, you helped us win this test. And successfully passed the torture test, which is very difficult for a newcomer. In view of your outstanding performance in this operation, the military evaluator gave you a high evaluation score. This score is enough for you to become our priority training object."
"Prioritize training?" Lin Rui frowned, "I thought the training camp had ended early."
"Originally yes, but you impressed the company's board of directors with your efficient actions and professional military literacy. Our training system will be retained, and even a very expensive budget will be added to expand training resources." Michelle said slowly, "So the training camp will continue."
"This is really great," Lin Rui said lightly.
"Why do you think so? It seems that most students want to leave this training camp soon." Michelle smiled slightly.
Lin Rui calmly said, "Leaving here, where can you go? It's nothing more than going out on missions and participating in various battles. If you are lucky, you will die after nine deaths, and you can still pick up one life. If you have average luck, you will die. If you have worse luck , Will be killed with a disabled body." He glanced at Michel's artificial hand and added, "I don't intend to offend, I just tell the truth. Compared to the battle with real guns and live ammunition, I I like this training camp better. At least it will keep me alive. And I know that if I study here one more day, I will have more hope of survival in the future."
Michelle smiled slightly, "You are smart and patient. The combination of intelligence and patience is a very dangerous talent. For your enemies, you will be the most dangerous killer. Well, today I'm actually here to inform you that you won't return to the original team again."
"What do you mean?" Lin Rui frowned. "The team has been reorganized?"
"That's right. After you killed Gross, Tang Kun's team arrived in time and had an exchange of fire with the evacuated Gross mercenaries. Although they won a big victory, there were casualties, and the original team structure was incomplete. . And all the tactical operation data of this thunderstorm operation was uploaded to the company, which was systematically evaluated by professional military observers. Different evaluation data have been established for each of you. You will conduct another review based on the score of this evaluation data. Group." Michelle looked at him.
"Whatever. If possible, I still want to be with my teammates." Lin Rui shrugged.
Michelle shook his head, "I'm telling you, this is actually not random at all. According to your evaluation score, you will receive higher-level training. And after the training is completed, you will be the best in the world. Team of soldiers working together."
Lin Rui nodded and said, "Of course, he will also perform more dangerous military tasks."
Michelle smiled slightly, "I know what you are thinking. You think the more prominent performance will be more dangerous. So you have reservations in all training. I don't want to lie to you, if you enter more Higher-level teams will indeed perform more dangerous tasks. You may think this is not safe, I understand. Don’t forget that I am also a mercenary, and everyone wants to keep this life back."
Lin Rui glanced at him silently, without speaking.
Michelle sighed, "Morningstar's military personnel are divided into four levels according to their comprehensive scores, from level a to level d. The tasks they engage in are also different. A level tasks are high risk and high rewards. . Including participation in secret military operations, infiltration operations, the destruction of important military targets, the beheading of important figures or missions. The d-level missions seem to be very low risk, mainly engaged in base defense and military security measures."
Lin Rui did not speak, at least waiting for Michelle to continue speaking.
Michelle slowly said, "However, the reality is usually very cruel. The probability of casualties of d-level missions is much higher than that of a-level missions. Because relatively speaking, the missions of a-level military personnel will receive more resources and support. And complete it with the best team. Planning an a-level mission will have a complete mission plan and more intelligence support. Some missions are even equipped with predator drones and other aerial fire support. This makes the mission more successful. High. On the other hand, there are not so many available resources to support the D-level task."
After a pause, Michelle sighed, "Taking the Iraq War as an example, it is just a simple task such as base defense and security. Endless armed harassment, roadside bombs, suicide attacks. They are taken every day. The lives of many military security personnel. You never know when there will be a cold gun fired from a distance, and you never know where it is safe. The probability of casualties in a d-level mission is even ten times or even a few times that of a-level missions. ten times."
Lin Rui was silent, he knew that Michelle didn't need to lie to him.
"The world of mercenaries is very practical. Everything has a price. The elite has the price of the elite, and the cannon fodder also has the value of the existence of cannon fodder. The difference is that the a-level elite mission is highly valued. In order to ensure the success rate, the company I will spare no effort to support it. And for the D-level cannon fodder mission, you can only ask for your own blessings." Michelle slowly said, "Many people say that I am a legend in the mercenary world. But the actual situation is However, I am always performing difficult tasks, and I am with the most elite team. That's why I am here today."
Lin Rui was silent for a while, then looked at him and said, "Why do you tell me this?"
"Because you have a lot of things in your body, very similar to me back then. Follow my path, and you will be the next living legend. And let your own temperament come, you can only be in an unknown country , An unknown corpse lying on the side of the road. Even if you are mentioned, you are only called an unidentified armed person. This is not alarmist, consider it yourself." Michelle calmly said.
