Getting the best from Tarkov

Chapter 188: Cultivating Private Arms

Two days passed in a blink of an eye.

That day, Liao Fan was lying on a lounge chair on the third floor of the tower, basking in the sun as usual. Wilson suddenly walked over and said, "Sir, the person you were looking for is here."

After saying that, he placed the tablet computer in his hand on the small coffee table in front of Liao Fan.

On the tablet screen, simple information of 12 men and women was displayed.

After a quick flip through, Liao Fan put the tablet back on the coffee table. He followed Wilson all the way to the seaside pier and boarded a large yacht.

It was still the same boat. Liao Fan had thought about buying one before, but after asking Wilson to check the price... he decided to rent it.

Go up to the deck and follow the corridor to the cabin lounge.

There were 12 people with different appearances and skin colors standing or sitting inside.

However, I don’t know if it’s a matter of aesthetics, but Liao Fan feels that these 12 people, except for the two black men, the remaining six men and four women, all look pretty good.

After signaling everyone to find a place to sit, Liao Fan did not hesitate to take out 12 nameplate necklaces transformed from binding scrolls from the transformation space and handed them to the 12 people one by one.

After watching them put on the necklaces, Liao Fan ordered Wilson outside the door to drive the boat to a nearby uninhabited island.

During this period, Liao Fan also asked about everyone's previous work experience and their respective identities.

Among them, two black people: Steve and Will, were both from the United States. They had previously lived in Los Angeles, California, and had experience serving in the US Army.

However, since retiring, due to racial discrimination issues and local welfare issues for veterans, the two were forced to join local communities in Los Angeles.

Fortunately, Wilson found them in advance, so for now, their identities are still clean.

Apart from the two black men, there were six men left, one of whom was also American. Of the remaining five, four were from Ukraine and one was from Britain.

The American's name is Damon, he is only 24 years old and a retired soldier of the Navy SEALs.

His situation is similar to Steve and Will's. Although he has not experienced racial discrimination, he suffers from severe battlefield stress syndrome and once accidentally killed a neighbor's Border Collie.

When Wilson found him, he told him directly and clearly that Liao Fan needed soldiers, and the other party did not even hesitate.

Among the remaining five people, there was a Ukrainian who was quite special. His name was Andrei. He was a deserter, but the reason was that his superiors had ordered him to shoot at civilians on the battlefield.

Although these soldiers who disobeyed orders were just trash, Liao Fan was not worried.

As long as he wears the dog tag transformed by the binding scroll, he will never betray. As for the conscience in his heart, the worst that can happen is that he can be arranged as a bodyguard. He happens to be big and strong, like a big bear, so he can definitely block bullets.

Apart from these four, there was nothing special about the remaining four men. They were either bankrupt professional managers or homeless people who were kicked out of their homes by their wives and wandered the streets.

In short, time is running out. If there is nothing wrong, how could Wilson find 12 people so quickly?

After talking about the man, the remaining four women had a hint.

These four people actually know each other and are classmates.

The reason I agreed to the job offered by Wilson was purely to get a workstation while traveling.

These four people are all French, and their family backgrounds are problematic. They are either orphans or come from single-parent families, and are not favored.

Because of their family reasons, the four of them were bullied by their classmates in college. In addition, they all attended public universities on social subsidies, and the school teachers didn't care much about them. Therefore, the four of them gradually formed a group.

Among these four people, there is a girl named Iris who is smarter and has always been the leader of the four-person group.

It was she who agreed to Wilson this time, and it was she who suggested taking this opportunity to go on a trip at public expense. Anyway, he could just refuse it later.

Unexpectedly, he was chained up by Liao Fan as soon as he arrived. He was sitting there obediently looking at Liao Fan, with no intention of escaping at all.

After learning the general information of these 12 people, the boat also sailed to an uninhabited island.

After getting the 12 people off the boat, Liao Fan asked Wilson to take the captain to move a lot of barrels of purified water from the warehouse to the island, and then called everyone together to talk.

"Starting today, you will need to train on this for a month.

I will hand over the training content to Damon later. He will temporarily take over as your captain during this period.

In addition to the training content I gave to Damon, you also need to build a temporary camp here, with a scale of about 20 people.

You can just ask Damon and the other two about how to do it. I believe that even if they are not Navy SEALs, ordinary US Army soldiers should have received training in survival in the wild.

This is just an uninhabited island, not the Amazon rainforest, so it's not that difficult. We will replenish your fresh water every three days, and the amount replenished each time will be enough for 12 of you to use for 4-5 days.

The extra water is not for you to waste. It is kept for emergency use so that you won’t die of thirst in case the supply ship is late.

I will arrange work for you in a month.

As for salary, I don’t know what Wilson promised you, but that doesn’t matter. You can see that he is just fooling you.

Regarding salary, what I say will be the final word.

You guys are just ordinary employees right now, so I'm going to give you $1000 a week.

If you are on a mission, there will be subsidies of varying degrees.

Class C assignments, which are ordinary on-site security assignments, receive an additional $100 per week.

B-level missions are slightly more dangerous, and are primarily bodyguard duties. However, they are not conducted in war zones, but rather in peaceful countries and relatively prosperous cities. This level of mission pays $1000 per week.

Level A missions are similar to Level B missions, but the cities you go to may be very difficult, so the weekly salary subsidy will increase to US$1500.

Starting from the S-level mission, there is a risk to life.

Among them, the S-level mission requires serving as a bodyguard in a war-torn area, with a salary subsidy of US$3000.

That is, when performing S-level missions, the weekly salary is $4000. You can compare this salary level with that of people you have known before.

As for SS-level missions, starting from this level, they are confidential missions and their contents will not be disclosed to outsiders. However, starting from SS level, there is no salary subsidy. Instead, a one-time bonus of 10 US dollars will be paid after completing the mission.

As for SSS-level missions, the danger level is naturally higher, but the mission bonus is also higher. Depending on the specific mission duration and difficulty, you will be given a cash bonus ranging from US$50 to US$200 million.

On top of the SSS missions, there are also death missions, in which there is basically no possibility of survival, or in other words, the survival rate is so low that it can be ignored.

To carry out this task, after we confirm your death, we will transfer a one-time pension of US$500 million to the security account you have reserved in advance.

This money should be enough for your relatives or friends to improve their lives.

Of course, if you can come back alive, this money will be your bonus.

Okay, I've said everything I want to say, do you have any questions?"
