Graduation

The reagent canisters at the lifting chamber have now been removed.

The hazy, gray fog inside had disappeared.

All that remained in Colonel Lafei's hands was a clean, empty bottle.

"This recruit seems to have good potential! It's the first time I've seen someone absorb so cleanly."

"It's also possible that a lot of waste is being generated in the booster bay."

Upon hearing this, Major Qi quickly responded from the side.

Generally, S-rank recruits will have some residue after absorbing this special resource.

The higher the potential, the more it absorbs, but this is not absolute.

The energy dissipation from the booster chamber is not fixed each time, and the absorption and residue of special resources can only be used as a general reference, and no complete conclusion can be drawn.

Colonel Lafei looked at Lister in the booster compartment again, his expression unreadable.

Major Qi was getting a little anxious and quickly continued.

"Colonel Lafei, actually, I've always had high hopes for this new recruit, Lister."

"It's a pity he's a martial arts major; it would have been better if he had gone down the psychokinesis path."

He quickly expressed his interest in Lister and reminded Colonel Lafei of Lister's weakness as a martial arts practitioner.

He was afraid that Colonel Lafei would change his mind and try to take the man away from him.

Those within the group know their own situation. There are also differences in strength within the Central Army Group. The higher the ranking of the group army, the stronger its overall strength.

The Central Army Group, especially the top ten in terms of unit number, can be considered the elite elite units of the Federation Military District.

Furthermore, the other party's rank is higher than his, so if it really comes down to competition, Major Qi isn't very confident he can keep Lister.

Sigh!

Fortunately, his words actually had an effect; Colonel Lafei shook his head and sighed deeply.

"Recruiting from the Civilization Army is too costly; Major Qi, you should continue to train Lister properly."

Thinking that there were still more than a dozen new recruit camps to go to, including one promising recruit he had his eye on.

Now that he understood Major Qi's meaning, he decided to give him face and not bring it up again.

Five hours later, Lister finally came down from the lift.

His eyes gleamed with a sharp light, and he exuded a powerful aura, yet he also seemed somewhat weak.

Colonel Lafei nodded with a smile upon seeing that the enemy had lost half of their health.

"Alright! Since everyone's safe and the training is over, we won't keep you any longer."

"Major Qi, recruit Lister, and everyone else, until we meet again!"

After saying that, he turned and left without hesitation.

Major Qi nearby, finally stepped forward, patted Lister on the shoulder, and handed him a vial of reagent with a look of satisfaction.

"Go back and rest first. You can come find me anytime you've recovered about graduating early."

After receiving the recovery potion, Lister also wanted to go back and assess his strength again.

After a brief farewell to Major Qi, he hurried to the billing training room.

He took out several bottles of recovery potions and kept drinking them. He had never used many of these recovery potions before, but now they were finally coming in handy.

Unfortunately, they are all level one potions, and for Lister at his current condition, the actual recovery will be far less than the advertised effects.

Fortunately, there were many, and within just one hour, he had fully recovered.

They once again used all their skills to try and adapt.

The S-rank Merrick Saber Technique, when used today, is no longer confined to specific moves, but rather focuses more on the understanding of the sword itself.

The skill of Iai Slash has also disappeared; he can draw the sword with every strike whenever he wants.

[Custom naming successful: Federation Shunpo has been renamed Flash.]

This Shunpo has long transcended the concept of footwork; it belongs to the application of spatial rules.

Its movement speed is incredibly fast; because it involves spatial teleportation, the enemy's ability to determine its location is completely compressed.

I can only react based on my sixth sense and the fluctuations at the moment he appears.

It wasn't until midnight that Lister finally began to adapt to his current strength, including the two main skills that had been upgraded to S-rank.

However, I remained excited and thrilled, especially after seeing my SS-level rating in the overall evaluation.

A world -World-Ending Level of evaluation that was unattainable in a previous life; truly top-tier combat power among cosmic celebrities.

He has now achieved this before Kavin.

At the same time, they also had additional speculations about their own combat strength.

On one hand, he suspected that he was already at the World-Ending Level due to his passive abilities, but the reason he was being held back was due to his active skills, which were not worth mentioning as mere A-level skills.

On the other hand, there is speculation about the special passive Robust Soul, with some suspecting that this passive ability is what enabled him to reach SS-level combat power.

It is indeed a special reward for completing a high-difficulty second job advancement quest.

This passive upgrade is difficult to achieve, requiring a high amount of experience points, and the final improvement effect far exceeds expectations, allowing all attacks to have a true damage effect.

Lister himself valued the Robust Soul more, believing it to be the key to achieving an SS-level rating.

[Remaining Experience Points: 78,332,312]

Sixty-eight thousand; recently, the momentum of players giving experience points has gradually begun to slow down.

Martial arts-based players are gradually entering some of the weakest versions.

However, with so many newcomers arriving in Act IV, Lister is considering returning to the Merrick Civilization.

He can't afford to miss out on these new investors; they are the key to his rapid improvement.

Congratulations, your level has increased.

[Level: LV100→107 (1/10700000)]

Lister's Freedom attribute had already reached the level barrier of 100 points last month, and now that he could exchange for six more potions, Lister decided to raise his level again.

It's a pity he doesn't have enough experience points, otherwise, given his current habits, he would still prefer to level up ten levels at once.

[Overall Rating: SS to S]

Seeing the overall rating plummet immediately, Lister felt somewhat helpless.

As expected, he had only just reached the standard of World-Ending Level combat power at the tenth rank.

Having just reached the eleventh rank, it immediately dropped back to the S rank.

A one-day experience of World-Ending Level.

"Whew!"

Taking a deep breath, Lister quickly adjusted his mindset.

Now that he knows his potential, as long as he maxes out his current skill levels and attributes, he can return to the World-Ending Level.

Inside the dormitory, Lister carefully read the information transmitted by Reck.

The above contains some internal regulations concerning the Arcane Army Group.

He was primarily focused on the aspect of vacation.

The resources needed to improve freedom attributes have been largely resolved within the military region, but the experience points are lagging behind.

Now that Merrick Saber Technique have been upgraded to S-level, he wants to use this skill to harvest another batch of new investors, while also motivating the existing investors to continue improving.

Unfortunately, according to regulations, recruits are not allowed to leave the camp during their three years of basic training.

Even if the camp turns a blind eye, they can only operate on this Arcane Planet at most, and they still have to bear all the consequences themselves.

If Lister really wants to leave and return to the Merrick Civilization, he needs to weigh Lister pros and cons regarding graduating early.

Evening, in the senior officers' quarters of the recruit camp.

Have you thought it through?

With the "Bloody Glory" sign waving in his hand, Major Qi had anticipated that Lister would come looking for Lister.

"Um."

As far as I remember, the player's time in Act IV is not short, but it's impossible to wait until the three years in recruit camp are over.

Even if he only considers the resources needed to max out his four attributes before the Third Advancement, he would still need to stay in the recruit camp for more than three months.

Furthermore, given the specific standards of the Arcane Army Group's leave system, it's not certain that they'll be able to get back in time.

For now, the only option is to forgo the privileges gained from resources in the recruit camp and graduate as soon as possible.

Anyway, the necessary resources can still be obtained from the Arcane Army Group, it's just that military merits are no longer as cheap.

At that moment, Major Qi glanced at the oppressive aura emanating from him and then nodded in satisfaction.

"Eleventh rank, plus being an S-rank recruit, is enough to graduate according to the standards of a captain."

"Okay, I'll go arrange it for you first. You can graduate right after the next monthly exam."

Lister was immediately grateful to receive an extra month of recruit training merits.

"Major Qi, actually I have another request to make tonight."

"Speak."

"My roommate, Reck, will graduate with me. I hope we can be assigned to the same place in the Arcane Army Group."

Reck still has a lot of room for improvement in boot camp.

Lister also tried to persuade him, but he remained resolute and had thought things through very clearly.

The benefits of basic training are far less than the future benefits of following Lister; I've long planned to graduate with him.

Lister didn't mince words about it.

With the intelligence expert Reck at the Arcane Army Group, it was naturally a good thing for him.

"No problem, I thought it was something serious."

Major Qi smiled and waved his hand, then downed the drink in one gulp.
