Chapter 07: Page 7

Acting requires a beginning and an end.

"Okay, don't be so stern. Since I misunderstood you, I'll give you a gift as compensation."

Colonel Hammond clapped his hands, and saw a guy wrapped in bandages being brought in, and then he fell to his knees with a thud.

It was Johnson who received part of the treatment!

"Recruit Jay, the evidence you submitted regarding Private First Class Johnson's illegal activities has been investigated and confirmed to be true."

"This guy was originally supposed to be publicly executed in three days, but considering the impact it might have, I'll let you carry out the execution in person now, in secret."

Colonel Hammond threw his gun on the table and signaled Jay to take action.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Johnson had no tongue and his mouth was blocked, with snot and tears flowing out of his nose. He wanted to beg Colonel Hammond and Jay to let him go.

It’s a pity that things have changed. The money he was reluctant to spend at the beginning, he has no chance to spend now.

Jay naturally didn't hesitate at all. He picked up the gun on the table and pointed it at Johnson's head.

boom!

Blood splatters!

Johnson fell into a pool of blood with unwilling eyes.

"One life for another, it's even."

Jay whispered in his heart.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!

Colonel Hammond clapped his hands with an admiring look; he liked guys who were straightforward and decisive.

The most important thing is that he has the leverage over the other party.

The secret execution was just an excuse he made up.

If he wanted to, he could immediately execute him openly on the charge of "murdering his colleagues".

"Have one?"

Looking at the cigar handed over by Colonel Hammond, Jay put the gun back on the table and did not refuse.

Although it was his first time killing someone, he didn't have any deep feelings about it.

No matter which world you are in, you either learn to eat others or be eaten by others. It is just like that.

Just as he had guessed Colonel Hammond's intention to let him do it himself, he couldn't refuse either.

"what about the taste?"

"It's wonderful, very rich... and I guess very expensive."

"Hahaha, that's right! The best and most intoxicating thing in the world is the smell of money!"

Colonel Hammond seemed satisfied with Jay's answer.

"Anyone who knows me knows that I am a man who does what I am paid for."

"With this evidence, all your previous offenses will be wiped clean and will not be pursued."

"And your internship will end early. After you walk out of this door, you will be a glorious Marine Private First Class."

"Besides that, I can also make you a promise. If I can successfully obtain the 'thing', you will be promoted to Private First Class in the Navy."

In the naval system, below the petty officers, from lowest to highest, are trainee recruits, privates first class, privates second class, and privates first class.

The next step up from private first class is promotion to non-commissioned officer.

It means that you are no longer a soldier, and it is also a relatively important watershed.

Considering the value of the plantation, it should not be exchanged for just a private.

But after all, Jay only owns the title deed, but has no actual control, and Colonel Hammond needs to "ask for it" himself, so the value is greatly reduced.

Another good thing is that Colonel Hammond no longer pursued his previous disregard of orders.

By the way, I also solved Johnson's problem, which is already a great gain.

Jay was very satisfied that a piece of "torn paper" could be recycled to this extent.

So he immediately straightened his back, saluted, thanked his superior for his training, and then left very tactfully.

Of course, he didn't forget to take away the lit cigar.

He wanted to send a signal to the outside world that he had been appreciated by Colonel Hammond.

In this way, his subsequent plans will be easier to carry out and there will be less trouble.

As he expected, the news spread quickly after someone saw him leaving Colonel Hammond with a cigar in his mouth.

It shocked many people!

You know, this kind of thing has never happened before.

This kind of treatment Jay receives is the first time for a Scorpion father!

Then, before they could figure out what was going on, they heard another piece of news.

Nova Jay ended his internship early due to his outstanding performance and was promoted to private!

Wow!

What does this mean?

It’s confirmed!

This kid Jay really caught Colonel Hammond's eye!

Many people began to envy, jealous and hate, and said all kinds of things.

The most outrageous thing is that some people say that Jay is actually Colonel Hammond's illegitimate son who was left behind.

Putting aside the question of whether the two look alike, let's assume that if they do, is an illegitimate child worth a cigar and an early official promotion?

I stopped eating beef a long time ago!

However, these rumors did not affect Jay at all.

Because he was busy exercising every day and had no time to deal with those people.

The advantage of becoming a private early is that he no longer has to do those chores and has a lot more free time.

And every day you can also participate in formal naval training with others.

Chapter 10 This is the first time I have seen such a request (please collect and read!)

During the training at the base, many people tried to be lazy and just get by, but Jay was different.

Not only will he complete all the training content meticulously, he will also take the initiative to do additional training afterwards.

Such an "unsociable" style naturally makes many people sneer at him behind his back.

It was only because of those rumors that I didn't bother Jay.

But it was also naturally isolated.

Jay didn't care at all about this.

He doesn't care what these small fry think. Paying attention to them for even one more second is a waste of time.

Being in such a dangerous world, and with a high-risk profession like the navy, he certainly knows the principle of sweating more in peacetime and bleeding less in war.

He must seize every second to become stronger!

Self-discipline, coupled with his 'talent', made his originally thin body look better almost every day.

Not only did his muscles bulge, but his height also increased a bit, truly reaching above the "passing line" of 1 meters.

After all, she is only 16 years old, and it is the time for her to grow.

It can be imagined that 1 meters is definitely not the limit of his physical growth.

That day, after dinner.

Jay decided to take a two-pronged approach. While training, he also tried to activate other abilities of the red card [Hanma Yujiro].

[Using nunchakus, kill 100 people in one battle.]

【Undergo a baptism of lightning.】

These two activation conditions cannot be met for the time being, but one of them can be tried.

[Additional active ability: Ghost Back. The muscles on the back form a face like a demon, which can maximize the power of the human body.]

[Activation Condition: Withstand 10,000 effective attacks.]

What is an effective attack?

An attack that causes a certain amount of damage is called an effective attack.

This was also verified by Jay's own private "self-harm".

Although he could do it, he didn't have the hobby of 'self-harm' after all, so he thought about it and walked straight towards someone.

Buck, who was eating, looked up and saw Jay standing next to him, and his face suddenly looked a little unnatural.

"Come find me after dinner."

When the people around saw this, they immediately burst into laughter.

Just because Buck was the idiot who boasted that he would wash Jay's underwear for a month.

In fact, he had been planning to default on the debt from the very beginning. He didn't believe Jay would dare to do anything to him.

Then, inexplicably, Jay was appreciated by Colonel Hammond and was promoted to a regular employee ahead of schedule.

Then he saw Johnson's death notice, and he was completely scared.

"A wise man never suffers a loss. It's just washing underwear, what's the big deal?"

So I took the initiative to fulfill my promise.

Seeing Jay coming over, I subconsciously thought that it was time for work again today.

"I...I know."

Buck flushed.

Although the laughter around him was harsh, he still didn't have the courage to refuse.

He simply stopped eating, lowered his head and hurriedly followed Jay.

"Where are you going? This way."

"Ah? Aren't we going back to the dormitory?"

"What are you doing back in the dorm?"

"I'm washing your underwear. Speaking of which, can we make a deal? Can you call me next time when there are fewer people around? Although I, Buck, am willing to admit defeat, I still have to save my face..."

Jay suddenly turned around and looked at him. "I need your help with something. If you agree, everything that happened before will be written off. No one will laugh at you anymore for washing the underwear of the new recruits."

Buck's eyes widened when he heard that he didn't have to wash his underwear anymore. "What's the matter? Let me tell you first, I'm very poor and have no money!"

"Not borrowing money from you is just a simple matter, and you must be very willing to do it."

Jay suddenly smiled.

Ten minutes later, in a corner of the training ground.

Jay was shirtless, his muscles already beginning to take shape.

He stood there, took a deep breath, and then said in a deep voice, "Come on."

Buck, holding a wooden stick in his hand, gritted his teeth and said, "You asked me to beat you. We agreed that there would be no revenge afterwards!"

"hurry up!"

Snapped!

Buck was unsure of himself, and although he swung the stick, he subconsciously reduced the strength in his hand.

After all, he had never helped in this way before.
