The intelligence system plays a crucial role in the Adventurers' Bounty Guild and Mary places great importance on this responsibility. She first established the intelligence department, which she thinks of as the heart of the guild. At this point, Mary has taken this as her primary task, next to waiting for official permission to be granted.

The staff at the Central Intelligence Room are swamped with work, the sound of typing echoing throughout the room. Mary casually commanded an intelligence officer to pull up the applicant information from the guild's opening till now, hoping to identify some particularly noteworthy individuals. But the results showed a huge number of people, all of whom were ordinary people without any outstanding skills.

Of the information she reviewed, only 13 individuals had a certain level of caliber, 11 of whom were apprentice mercenaries and 2 were pre-mercenary. Then she manually compiled the Freedom Port Combat Power Evaluation List based on their strengths. This list is extremely important and is referred to in any situation that calls for the use of force. All capable individuals were recorded in the database.

Mary decided to pull out the Freedom Port Combat Power Evaluation data, quite pleased with the ranking. She noticed some information about the black special-mission soldiers. The introduction was very simple with an anonymous listing followed by some data about them.

The so-called 'apprentice level' is a traditional term in Freedom Port. Apprentice mercenaries are akin to ordinary soldiers, possessing some unarmed combat ability and weapon handling skills. Then there are pre-mercenaries, and further down, Level 3 mercenaries.

Achieving the level of a Level 3 mercenary is quite remarkable, as a Level 3 mercenary possesses the combat ability to take on dozens of ordinary people singlehandedly.

The next tier is Rank 2. This level could be described as terrifying, often carrying with it a sort of awe-inspiring presence. Sir and Shirley are both at Rank 2. They possess excellent physical resilience. Either they underwent genetic mutation or they already possessed this quality and honed it through acquired training to reach this level, which is tremendously hard to find among millions of people.

If we further classify, there are First-Order warriors that far surpass the Rank 2 fighters. Pat's power is dubious, but considering he was instantaneously defeated by a black knight, his power should be somewhere in the early or middle stage.

It's confirmed that Gomez, who holds the power of a five-star, is at the late stage of First-Order. From this, we can infer the black knight's strength should be floating between late First-Order and Super First-Order. Therefore, the computer's overall evaluation of him is at Super S stage, and if special mission reaches Super S, his formidable strength should easily reach the world's top hundred.

However, in Freedom Port, Rank 1, 2, and 3 are commonly referred to as 'rank-based' fighters. Despite the large span, they are beings far beyond ordinary people.

Mary rubbed her sore eyes and suddenly, a refined young man burst into the room, exclaiming, "A master has come, a master has come."

"Calm down, speak slowly."

Hearing Mary's voice, the young man realizes a beautiful woman is right beside him, acting as a substitute chairman. He shyly blushed, then said that a man went straight to the second floor to sign up. When he asked why he didn't sign up downstairs, the man claimed he had the privilege of skipping the line as a Rank 3 soldier-mercenary, which made the young man overjoyed. How could he not be excited about recruiting a Rank 3 soldier on the first afternoon?

Whether it is true or not, Mary rushed out of the room to see a handsome yet resolute man. Could this be the so-called Rank 3 fighter?

"Sir, are you the Rank 3 fighter?"

"Yes."

"We need to test your identity and strength."

"Okay."

"May I ask for your name?"

"Yi Feng."

"Well, Mr. Yi Feng, please follow me."

With a graceful smile on her face, Mary calculated in her mind that this man spoke quite concisely like a rookie who just came into the career. If he indeed possesses real strength, she will try to have a long-term agreement with him. She sighed to herself, thinking that a woman's life journey is tough. She had many other things to do, but she would break the rule and stay in the guild for a little while longer today.

Mary led Feng Yi through the spacious hallway in the lobby. Encircled by the envious gazes of many men, the two walked directly to the strength testing room. The test was not too difficult, testing strength, agility, and reaction. Finally, Feng Yi's test results showed a punching force of 1230 kilograms reaching the Rank 3 standard, a 100-meter sprint time of 4.24 seconds reaching the Rank 3 standard, and he successfully avoided all obstacles within the prescribed time limit. Although it was somewhat hard for him, his reactions were up to mark, thus reaching the Rank 3 standard.

Feng Yi thus became the first mercenary in the Adventurers' Bounty Tribe to reach the standard of Rank 3 and the first to be offered a contract by the guild and gain the corresponding honor points.

A total of 500 honor points! My goodness, isn't this a joke?

That same afternoon, the news swept through the guild like a whirlwind. Everyone knew what 500 honor points meant. 500 honor points could be exchanged for 1000 self-defense pistols, 50 Ice and Fire Double-headed Snakes, ten multi-function rocket boots, two Grade KS Combat Suits, a light-energy watch, and of course, 500 honor points could also be exchanged for 500 Federal Coins and many other valuable items. But no one would be foolish enough to exchange 500 honor points for money. All the above items could not be bought on the market.

Besides, when honor points reach 100, one would enjoy the treatment of a senior guild member, which means enjoying high-privilege services like free car service. For those who are fond of alcohol, the best enjoyment is to hang out in the bar after completing tasks every day.

However, there is no such thing as a free lunch. It's easier said than done to earn honor points. Only D-class and above missions offer honor points as awards based on final evaluations. If a guild member violates any rule, corresponding deductions will be made. Depending on the severity, they might be permanently kicked out of the guild. And today, a lucky fool joined and received such treatment. How could this not be exciting?

Initially, the high-ranking fighters who were able to observe from the shadows were starting to feel uneasy. Half an hour after Feng Yi received his honor points, another Rank 3 fighter registered to join the Adventurers' Bounty Guild. However, his treatment wasn't as good. He only received 50 honor points.

In the following two hours, a total of 5 pre-mercenaries and 20 apprentice mercenaries joined the guild. They were awarded 10 honor points and 5 honor points respectively.

However, let's be clear. Since it's a welfare reward, the awarded points will be frozen for one year.

Feng Yi had set a good example for everyone, but Mary's management of the guild seemed more and more like a pyramid organization, freezing points and all. Truth be told, he didn't expect this. His initial intention to sign up was to observe the development of the guild from close quarters, but the end result was... well, like this.
