What If I Can't Die?

chapter-656
"Then this is the normal rule. What about my remuneration for staying for a full year?"
Song Shi retorted.
"Hehe, I can make an exception and increase your authority by one level. This way, you can exchange for better things through military merits. The restrictions of authority are not something you can break through with military merits. After all, you're a death row criminal. How about that?"
The Camp Commander smiled.
"Sure."Song Shi nodded.
In his opinion, what this Camp Commander had paid was nothing. At most, he would use his authority to increase his authority.
"Do you think I'm taking advantage of you? If I increase your authority, it will consume my military merits. If anything happens to you, I'll have to take responsibility. This is not something that can be made up for by a little military function."
The Camp Commander frowned and explained.
"I know. Can I see what I can exchange for with military merits now?"
Song Shi did not show any joy. The things he wanted were really not a big deal to his horizons.
The Camp Commander said to the Adjutant, "Bring him there. I'll give him Level 1 authority."Song Shi was brought into the fortifications by the Adjutant. These fortifications were made of steel and mud. They were much better than tents that could only shelter him from the wind and rain.
He said, "Are death row inmates not even qualified to live in mud-filled houses?"
The Adjutant chuckled. "You're indeed not qualified, but this is also for convenience. If you really can't defend it, you can just give up on this place. If you spend too much money to build your residence, it will be a waste if you can't defend it."
Song Shi did not ask further. He saw many supplies, nutrient fluids, medicines, and even vegetables and fruits.
The person guarding the supplies was a female soldier. She glanced at Song Shi and was surprised. "Adjutant Liu, why did you bring him here?"
"This is a sharpshooter who has been valued by the Camp Commander. Now that he has the treatment of an ordinary soldier, exchange things for him according to the treatment of a corporal."
The Adjutant explained and said to Song Shi, "Exchange for as many military merits as you have."
"I need the price and list of items."
Song Shi did not flatter anyone.
The female soldier was not used to it. Other than those of a higher rank than her, everyone who came here to get things was polite.
Adjutant Liu was beside her, so she could not show any displeasure. She pressed a button on the table and a beam of light shone on the wall, revealing the resources that could be exchanged.
After clicking on it a few times, Song Shi's personal information popped up. When she saw the 445 military merits on it, she said in surprise, "You seem to have been here for less than a week. This is the first time you've encountered a mutated beast attack. You actually obtained so many military merits?"
Adjutant Liu repeated, "He's a sharpshooter. He killed four mutated beasts with four shots."
The woman's expression immediately changed.
It was not as if she had never seen a marksmanship expert before. It was already very rare for someone to be able to kill four mutated beasts in such a short attack.
Song Shi did not say anything and stared at the exchange list.
There were more than ten types of medicine inside. The exchange price for each of them ranged from 1 to 30 points. Then, there were the nutrient fluids. They were all Level 1 nutrient fluids and cost 10 points. There were also fruits, meat, vegetables, and other things that could not be eaten normally.
Among them, there was also mutated beast meat. It was much more expensive. One catty was 15 military merits, which was more expensive than nutrient fluids.
Song Shi made a simple plan according to his military merits and said, "15 portions of nutrient fluid…"
Other than the medicine, he also exchanged for some fruits. As for the mutated beast meat, since it was said that he could share some of the mutated beasts he killed, there was no need to buy it.
The military merits were quickly exhausted. The woman searched for a while among the resources and packed three bags for him. There were quite a lot of them.
Song Shi took the item and took a look. It was enough for him to use for a week. With enough nutrition this time, there was no need to expend his Essence Qi.
If he ate the so-called mutated beast meat again, he would be able to make up for the consumption during cultivation. Song Shi could not help but be in a good mood.
The situation changed faster than he had expected. The previous reincarnations had not been in vain. The experience he had inherited was still useful.
When he walked out of the fortifications, Iron-skinned Wolves had already been placed on the ground and many cannon fodder were being dealt with.
"It's so big. I should be able to get a lot of meat, right?" Song Shi asked.
"You killed four of them. According to the ratio, you can get one-tenth of each." The Adjutant said.
"So little?"
"You were able to kill them with the help of everyone and the fort. If we were in another place, could you kill them alone under the attack of more than a hundred Iron-skinned Wolves?" The Adjutant asked.
Song Shi was speechless. Looking at the Iron-skinned Wolf's size, one-tenth of it was probably enough for him to eat for a long time.
The Camp Commander looked over. "You got the lion's share of the military merits. Naturally, you can't take all the mutated beast meat. Ten percent is not bad for you."
"I understand. I'm indeed not the only one who contributed to killing them."
Song Shi agreed with the Adjutant.
"It's good that you understand. I'll remember this meat for you. When you eat every day, I can make it ripe for you. However, you're not a cultivator. It's better not to eat too much of this thing. You won't be able to digest it. I suggest you sell the excess and exchange it for money. It will be useful in the future."
The Camp Commander suggested.
"Why can't I cultivate?" Song Shi asked, "I'm a martial artist and need to replenish such high-quality flesh and blood."
The Camp Commander was surprised. "You've only started practicing martial arts at this age? Are you practicing externally?"
Cultivation usually required one to be young. For someone as old as Song Shi, success would be very limited.
"Internal and external cultivation."
Song Shi glanced at the wolf meat and felt his saliva flowing out faster. He had not eaten meat for a long time.
He said, "Can we eat now? If it really doesn't work, I can do it myself."
"You can't start a fire. Go to the kitchen. You're qualified to make a few plates of stir-fry alone."
The Camp Commander knew that Song Shi wanted to eat it. Most of the cannon fodder here could not eat meat.
"Let's go together. I'll treat you."
Song Shi was also prepared to interact with the latter.
"Kid, you know how to behave. I still have to get someone to send these mutated beasts to the city. Next time."
The Camp Commander was very satisfied with Song Shi's words. He smiled and said, "The meat of these mutated beasts is very valuable. It's also one of the raw materials for making nutrient fluids. They have to keep it fresh. We can't delay it for too long."
Song Shi was deep in thought. He nodded, took his gun, and walked back.
He wanted to familiarize himself with these two guns. Then, he would eat a meal of mutated beast meat and begin to plan the next stage of his cultivation.
While Song Shi was calculating the limited resources, in the inner space of the distant Ancient Sun Star, Wuyou consolidated her strength that had advanced by leaps and bounds. When she realized that Song Shi was not by his side, she felt a little lonely.
She realized that she was used to having Song Shi by her side. She smiled bitterly and shook her head. "I didn't expect to miss a man one day."
She quickly suppressed her thoughts about Song Shi and began to plan her revenge.
This matter was more important. She had been planning for a period of time and felt that it was not perfect enough. She wanted to contact Song Shi through the God Roster to discuss it.
After she tried, she quickly exclaimed in surprise, "What's going on? I can't sense him anymore. There's no reaction. Is something wrong? No, with his strength, it's impossible for him to not be able to reply to me."
Wuyou instinctively sensed that something was wrong, but she subconsciously did not think that Song Shi would be in any danger.
After all, with the other party's ability, she could not even kill him. What danger could he encounter?
"What is he doing? Why isn't he replying to me?"
Wuyou was rather displeased and realized that she was a little emotional.
