The Aiven Family's Compensation
It turns out that Lim had already visited the Federation Government before.
That's true. As a citizen born into a Level 4 civilization, the first choice would be the Federation Government.
Those from families with average influence should first go to a level three civilization to gain experience and be elected as members of the House of Representatives.
Those with connections remained in the federal central government, gradually rising to positions such as governor or Senate.
Lim must have committed a crime in the Federal Central Government as well, which is why she settled for a position in the Federation Military District.
Jialiwen sweared a few times, but by this point he was too lazy to bring up the past again.
He shook his head somewhat disappointedly, then spoke again.
"Go back to the dormitory and stay there. Don't make a fuss about killing the new recruit."
"Everything will be resolved tomorrow morning after the ownership documents for this warehouse are released. I'll address this issue then."
It seems that the Federation Military District does indeed offer special treatment to recruits at the recruit camp.
Even ordinary recruits, as long as they haven't committed any offenses or violated the rules, will be subject to scrutiny even by Galactic Nobles who must use the rules carefully and provide an explanation to the Federation Military District.
This reminds me of the special resources the Federation Military District provides to all recruit camps.
At least during the recruit training phase, the fairness and impartiality of the Federation Military District were indeed deeply ingrained in the hearts of the recruits.
"Jialiwen!"
Despite expressing her gratitude, Lim showed little outward reaction.
He forced out a few feigned apologies and remorse, which vanished almost instantly, quickly turning into a look of displeasure.
Born into a fourth-level civilization, she was inherently arrogant.
Only if one truly feels guilty towards Jialiwen or the family is one more likely to be suspected.
Lister watched Wang Yue's performance quietly, his admiration growing ever stronger.
As expected, Jialiwen had no doubt about Lim's authenticity at this moment, and instead became increasingly disappointed in her performance.
Sigh!
"You should prepare yourself mentally; you probably won't be able to stay in the military region any longer."
"After the next family meeting, you'll most likely fall into the second tier of development lists."
"Until then, I'll try my best to find you a ruling planet of a level three civilization. You'd better stay there quietly."
"How can this be! Uncle Jialiwen?!"
"You may..."
Upon hearing this, "Lim's " expression finally changed drastically.
Before he could finish speaking, the video chat was cut off.
Clearly, Jialiwen had lost interest in talking to her any further and was genuinely prepared to marginalize her.
This was actually a good thing for Wang Yue, as she valued the fact that Lim was a Level 4 civilization.
Lower treatment means less attention, and a reduced chance of her being discovered.
Moreover, even with the reduced treatment, it's still the treatment of a level four civilization family, resources that over 99% of life forms in the galaxy wouldn't even dare to dream of.
Things have now progressed perfectly as originally planned.
Now we'll see how this ultimately unfolds.
At that moment, Lister silently gazed at Wang Yue.
After a long while, he slowly uttered two words.
"Take care of yourself!"
He turned and left.
The next morning, Lister went to the classroom on time as usual to learn general knowledge of materials science and alchemy in the Federation.
The progression of secondary professions also began to stagnate during this period.
Congratulations, you have gained 9 points of secondary profession experience.
[Secondary Profession: Alchemy Synthesis]
[Level: LV59 (573222/590000)]
Instead of gaining a level every lesson, now it only grants a paltry 9 experience points.
Fortunately, I'm almost level 60 and about to undergo a second job advancement in my secondary profession, so there's no rush to gain experience points in the short term.
"System: You have connected to the Arcane Civilization ID W3909 Administrative Star Government Network, and billing has begun."
That's the downside of boot camps: all external communication requires payment and is subject to a certain degree of oversight.
Carefully reviewing the information from the morning's announcement, Lister was paying more attention to the administrative decrees of the Arcane Civilization than ever before.
He quickly found the document he was looking for.
"Government Decree No. RZ1033: Notice Regarding the Division of Disputed Regions on Planet W3909:..."
Sure enough, the abandoned warehouse was officially designated as part of the local government's jurisdiction.
At the same time, the senior officers of the recruit camp hurried to the administration building, as if something major had happened.
About two hours later, a notice from the recruit camp was issued to all the new recruits.
"New Recruit Camp Notice: The activity area of Arcane Recruit Camp has been updated in advance. Coordinates XXX. The original Arcane Civilization's F103 Potion Factory Warehouse is no longer within the New Recruit Camp's area. Coordinates XXX, the original..."
All three disputed territories have been clearly demarcated in today's email notification.
Most of the new recruits glanced at the notice and lost interest.
Only Lister, who knew the truth, observed it very carefully.
It's clear that Jialiwen has been pulling strings behind this document, including the revelation of Wang Yue's death.
Not long after, another message came through his chip.
This time it wasn't a notification to everyone, but a meeting message sent to him individually by Major Siegfried.
Inside the familiar, technologically advanced villa.
Major Qi wasn't dressed as casually as he was last time.
Wearing a standard federal military uniform, he gives off a tough and masculine vibe.
His face was very serious, and there was a hint of headache and irritation between his brows.
After he sat down on the sofa, I handed him a glass of water and then spoke directly.
"Were you also at that warehouse last night?"
"Um."
He nodded silently. There was no need to hide it, and it couldn't be hidden anyway.
Whether the Federation Military District investigates the deaths in the recruit camp is one thing, Arcane Recruit Camp itself will certainly investigate the matter thoroughly.
As the main person in charge of the recruit camp, Major Qi could not possibly accept the death of a recruit under his jurisdiction without any explanation.
Sigh!
"Some things... are just hard to be fair in the end."
I didn't ask Lister for specific details about what happened in the warehouse; it was more like I was offering him comfort in advance.
"I have already reported Wang Yue's death to the Federation Military District."
"However, the other party should have contacted the military headquarters beforehand, as the location of that warehouse is disputed."
"The higher-ups have instructed our recruit camp to investigate and handle this ourselves; they will not interfere further."
"You... you know what I mean, right?"
"Does this mean... Galactic Nobles can kill people at will in the recruit camp!?"
Lister had anticipated this result and naturally understood its implications.
If the Federation Military District Headquarters doesn't pursue the matter, then even if the recruit camp finds out the truth, they have no right to prosecute.
He secretly wished things would stay the way they are now, but he couldn't be so direct about it on the surface.
He's at least a civilized roommate, and we usually get along quite well.
Even with Major Qi on the other side taking care of him, he still had to keep up the act.
"Lister!"
"I know you're upset, but this is the reality of the Galactic Federation!"
"And, Lim will be punished."
"I've already spoken to my superiors; at the very least, she can't stay in the Federation Military District any longer."
His face still held anger, and his fists clenched involuntarily.
As things went as expected, Lister was overjoyed.
"Besides that, I've spoken with the Aiven Family."
"As long as we stop investigating here at the recruit camp, the other party will give our camp an additional compensation."
"You know, without authorization from above, our investigation is practically useless."
"I've already promised them, and you'll get a share of the compensation."
Upon hearing this, Lister was somewhat moved.
Major Qi really took care of me!
Otherwise, he wouldn't be eligible for any compensation given to the senior officers in the recruit camp.
As he spoke, Major Qi opened the box that had been placed on the table earlier.
Inside were neatly arranged rows of bright blue injection syringes.
Although the drug was the same color, the syringe model was slightly different from that of the military region.
"10 Beta Civilization Universal Level 2 Resources."
Lister's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected such an extra benefit from coming today.
Kill the other party and then demand resources from their family in return?
His most scarce resource right now is attribute resources, so this deal is definitely worthwhile!
"Don't complain about the small amount; after all, it's mainly for our entire recruit camp."
"I selected these reagents for you. If you don't want them, I can compensate you with credits."
Although he really wanted to agree immediately, he still hesitated and struggled on the surface.
Sigh!
After a long pause, he let out a long sigh and finally nodded in agreement.
"No need, that's fine."
Major Qi patted him on the shoulder again, showing his understanding.
"Good that you understand. The higher you climb in the ladder, the more of this kind of thing will happen."
Don't be discouraged. I may have no chance now, but you still have a chance!
S-rank strength represents an opportunity for future civilization to advance.
Compared to others, Lister's future is limitless!
