The morning sun shines through the gaps in the clouds, once again gilding the huge city on the east coast with a soft golden yellow. It was a rare sunny morning, almost as beautiful as those in old-time magazines.

Sue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, looking carefully at herself in a dark dragoon uniform in the mirror. As an ensign, the cuffs of his uniform were adorned with a dull gold dagger stabbed into a jet-black, somewhat shiny piece of metal. The uniform fits perfectly, exactly to the size of his body, and the fabric is surprisingly light, but it is unusually tough, and has a protective effect that cannot be ignored. During the duel with Raikna and Oberen, Sue saw them roll and fall on the ground more than once, but their uniforms were not damaged. It was only at this time that Su himself put on the uniform of the Dark Dragoon and truly felt the excellence of this uniform. It's very comfortable to wear.

Such a good thing is naturally very expensive. The price of each set of uniforms for a lieutenant is 3,500 yuan, and if the rank is raised, the new uniform will be more elaborate in terms of materials and cuts, and the function will be higher, of course, the increase in price is definitely not linear. From 5,000 in the major's uniform to 15,000 in the colonel's uniform, the jump was so big that Su was silent for a long time. He couldn't understand why a uniform could cost more than a smart sniper rifle. Of course, if the scales were on either end of the scale with a set of colonel's uniform and 20 Barrett, Sue would probably lose control of her blood pressure.

Su has a very personal understanding of the price of the Dark Dragoon uniform, because the uniform on his body has to be paid. And he was in a state of absolute poverty at the moment, and he had no money at all, so when this beautiful and majestic uniform was worn on his body, Su already owed 3,500 yuan.

The pale golden hair of the young dragoon lieutenant in the floor mirror naturally fell out, blocking part of the blindfold. The dark black blindfold not only did not damage his appearance, but added a bit of mystery and gloomy temperament to Sue. In the mirror, Su's skin is like jade, and the countless scars left by the natives have disappeared without a trace, as if he has never been injured. For as long as he can remember, Sue has never had any scars on his body, he doesn't understand why, and it's impossible for him to go to a doctor to check on his body.

But looking at the ensign in the mirror, Su had a different feeling, smiled wryly, and silently calculated how much the incomparable dragoon in the mirror had spent for this glamorous appearance, or in other words, how much he owed.

Sue stands in a newly decorated apartment, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a large living room and a quiet dining room, which is structurally nothing more than the residence of an ordinary family in the old era, but in the new era, it has extraordinary significance. In particular, the interior of this apartment is electrified, and the refrigerator and air conditioning are all new-age industrial design, retro style, and by no means furnishings. The kitchen is also fully usable, and of course, for Sue, who can also live well by eating grass, kitchen is just a noun. What Sue felt most unacceptable was that all the water pipes in this apartment could flow water, without a single level of radiation level 4 water, and the water flow was abundant and powerful, as if it would never run out. In the bathroom of the apartment, there is a large bathtub, and now Su understands that this thing is definitely not an ornament.

Such an apartment was only the smallest and most rudimentary of the dormitories that the Dark Dragoon had prepared for the lieutenants. Sue couldn't imagine what it would be like to be in those individual villas.

It seems that they are still watering the flowers with water to maintain the well-groomed garden!

But the rent for this apartment is 2,400 yuan per month. Six Barrett ...... That's how Sue understands rent. Of course, the rent is just the rent, and the utility bills need to be paid separately, and in this respect, the old and new times are exactly the same.

One of the two bedrooms in the apartment has been converted into an equipment room, the other is a private firearms room and, of course, a specially reinforced ammunition room for ammunition storage. However, now these three special function rooms are empty, because the Dark Dragoon needs to buy all his personal equipment, and Su is really poor and white. When he was discharged from the hospital, if Persephone hadn't sent someone to bring him a set of clothes, he would have had to run naked. Of course, there are actually a lot of doctors and nurses who are willing to get a little compensation through guò, such as a pleasant evening, to help Sue, but in the face of Major General Persephone's male favorite, even the most daring and indulgent women will become regular.

Sue had to put on the uniform of the Dark Dragoon because he didn't have a second outfit at all. Counting the three months' rent prepaid, plus some pre-purchased necessities and household items, Sue currently owes Persephone 15,000. Sue didn't want anything unnecessary, but Persephone had them delivered and the bill was put on Sue's head.

And what stunned Su was that unlike his original understanding, after becoming the second lieutenant of the Dark Dragoon, not only did he not have any allowance to receive, but he also had to pay 1,000 yuan every month! The name is the information usage fee.

And how to make money, Su doesn't have any eyebrows yet. The only thing he knew was that the next month of theoretical training would never be cheap, and it seemed that the tuition and living expenses for that month would have to be borrowed from Persephone. It's easy to borrow money, but how do you pay it back? Knowing that the money borrowed from Persephone has a monthly interest rate of ten percent.

Su finally developed a fear of the Dark Dragoon, not of its strength, but of its many charges.

With a gloomy mood, Su began her first classroom career in her life.

The Dark Dragoon's Exclusive Training Academy is a large complex of buildings located in the corner of the bay, where it is dedicated to instilling in the nascent Dragoons the principles of the Ability Domain to the politics and economics of the new era. It's just that Su really can't figure it out, it is said that there will only be less than fifty new dragoons every year, why do you need such a huge training base, and how much does it cost to maintain it every year?

When he walked into the gate of the training base, Su found that the guards here were all rare beauties. Seeing Su coming over, the eyes of the two beautiful guards lit up, and one of them greeted him. However, when she immediately saw the emblem on Su's cuffs, the short sword inserted in the metal block, her face changed suddenly, and she became much more respectful, and she saluted Su first before asking Su what she meant.

The next step is to go through the simple registration process. Su's information was recorded in the computer network of the Dark Dragoon, so it didn't take a few minutes to complete all the registration procedures.

It wasn't until Sue disappeared into the gloomy gate of the central building that the two female guards let out a sigh of relief and whispered to each other.

"He's that Second Lieutenant Su? Sure enough, it's the same as they said! But did he really come out of that death camp? ”

"Didn't you see the markings on his cuffs? That insignia was different from an ordinary military rank, and I heard that it was the highest glory of the new dragoon! ”

"But...... Second Lieutenant Su, will you really die here? ”

“…… Perhaps. ”

Su didn't know what was whispering behind him, and he followed the instructions of the electronic notepad in his hand, all the way up to the eighth floor, and walked down the long corridor. In the middle of the hallway, a muscular steel-like bearded man leaned against a wall, smoking a smoky cigarette. Just above his head, a huge, eye-catching non-smoking sign hangs.

Su stood still, looked at the noteboard in his hand, and clearly stated that smoking was prohibited in the training base.

Su looked at the rules, at the no-smoking sign hanging from the top of the hallway, then at the man's flickering cigarette butt on his mouth, and walked past him as if nothing had happened.

"Boy, stop!" Just as Su was about to reach the end of the corridor, the man behind him finally couldn't bear it anymore and stopped him.

Su stood still, turned around, and looked at the man calmly.

There are still few people who can look at Su Anning freely under Su Anning's blue gaze, but this man is obviously one. He also wore the uniform of the Dark Dragoon, but most of the buttons on his upper body were unbuttoned, revealing most of his well-developed pectoral muscles and thick chest hair. This is very different from Sue, who is meticulously buttoned with every button. He stared at the emblem on Su's cuffs, his face was sad and happy, and it took a long time for him to let out a long breath and mutter, "What a lucky boy." ”

Su also saw that the man's uniform was decorated with more dark gold than his, and on the cuff was a cross, which was the rank of major. However, Su already knew that there was no subordinate in the Dark Dragoon who would necessarily obey his superior. Even if he is facing a general, a private can choose to refuse, of course, the consequence is that he needs to bear the general's wrath. Every general of the Dark Dragoon can be called a legend, and perhaps a man as wise as Lieutenant Colonel Julio can be promoted to colonel, but that's the end of it. And the generals, even those who are known for their wisdom, all have extremely terrifying combat power.

Su could choose to ignore the major, as long as he could win, then he was right.

What this raunchy man brought to Su was a vague pain like a pinprick in the face. This is what Su only feels when facing a very dangerous enemy, and Su's keen perception reminds him that the strength of this guy in front of him is indeed above him.

But Sue wasn't afraid. Real battles are always changing, and small differences in environment, ability matching, status, etc., can change the tide of battle, and luck is a factor that cannot be ignored. Su believed that there was never such a thing as a fifth-order ability that would definitely be able to beat a second-order ability, as Captain Curtis once said. Sue, who has been fighting and growing in the wilderness since he can remember, has reason to be confident in himself because of his ability to grasp momentary opportunities in battle.

At least, in comparison with the man in front of him, Su didn't think that the gap between the strengths of the two sides was insurmountable.

So, he wasn't ready to back down.

"Boy......" The man couldn't wait for Sue's answer, hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "I know it's not a good choice, but I think it's better for me to kill you!" ”

"Just you?" Su smiled and said to the man, "Okay, I'll wait." ”

With that, Su threw down the stunned man and disappeared at the end of the corridor.
