Warhammer: Hail to the Void Lords!

Chapter 172 03.0171: ‘Bonus and Reputation’

“How does it taste?” Seeing Horatio chewing carefully in his mouth, Farida asked curiously.

“The meat is firm and juicy. Every time you chew it, the delicious and sweet meat juice will burst in your mouth like biting into a pearl. If you use an analogy... it has the flavor of some poultry, but has the taste of Grox meat.”

What Horatio really wanted to say was that the meat tasted like chicken, but the meat was as firm and chewy as beef.

“You can try it. I think it tastes pretty good.”

After hearing what he said, Farida also had a certain degree of acceptance of the fragrant thick slices of meat on the silver plate in front of her.

She carefully cut a small piece from the corner and then pierced the meat with a fork.

With just a slight poke, the oily meat juice gushed out from the pierced part.

In front of the fragrant meat aroma, she couldn't help swallowing her throat.

The girl in navy uniform, dignified and beautiful, with a dashing look, opened her pink lips and put the steak into her mouth.

As her lips and teeth moved slightly, the steak fell into her tongue.

The warm and soft touch was indeed like eating Grox meat.

But this is a kind of white meat, which naturally lacks the slight fishy smell of red meat.

After chewing it carefully, it is much more delicious than Grox meat, with sweet juice and tempting meaty aroma.

"It's really delicious." She smiled peacefully to Horatio.

Every official who tasted this beast praised it highly.

Horatio looked at the huge body of the monster and couldn't help but think of a law in this world: the more ferocious and brutal the animal, the more delicious it is and the higher its economic value.

Just like Grox, Ant Bull, and this Kolotalid with a treasure all over its body.

"Our Mr. Horatio's performance in this naval battle is really amazing."

Commodore Peru looked at Horatio and took the initiative to extend his wine glass to him.

"If it weren't for his important shot that destroyed the engine of the Dreadnought-class light cruiser, I'm afraid this shame of the Imperial Navy would continue, and it might not be resolved for hundreds of years. And all of us would lose a large amount of hunting bounty today."

Commodore Peru praised everyone at the table without reservation.

"Miss Farida Hood also played a very important role. I thank her for her precise, thorough and quick calculation and calibration."

He raised and held out his wine glass to the Commodore.

Horatio did not take credit for himself, but shared the glory with his dedicated deputy beside him.

Just like a gentleman holding a lady's hand, he led her, who was a little awkward, into the topic of conversation.

"Ah..." Farida immediately raised her head and politely raised the high-heeled glass placed on her right hand with her slender hand wearing white gloves.

"Thank you for the compliment. Mr. Horatio gave good guidance. I need to mention that he worked very hard today.

He not only commanded the macro artillery array well, but also bravely led the armed forces to repel the enemy's invasion.

The timing of his decision-making on the call to arms needs me to learn from the case."

"Mr. Horatio issued the call to arms at the right time. I have checked it in detail from the military judge's records." Carson, the military supervisor who drank some strong liquor, exhaled a breath of turbid air, but his mind was obviously very clear.

When an officer issues a call to arms, after the battle, the military supervisor of the ship department and another naval officer will come to check the timing of the order and the records of damage and loss to ensure that the decision made by the officer who issued the order is reasonable.

After all, it is inevitable to lose firearms after the order is issued. The more times it is issued, the more it will be lost.

Abuse of power is a terrible thing on a closed warship.

Perhaps there is an over-zealous sailor who has hidden a laser pistol and raised the gun to the head of the officer who punished him when he was defenseless.

There are not many officers on the ship.

Everyone has important duties, not to mention the person who was assassinated. What if it was the military supervisor, the first mate, or even the captain?

"Of course, your heroic deeds today have impressed all of us. You will get the reputation of the Ministry of the Navy and bonus dividends."

Captain Peru raised his glass and said loudly to the officers in front of him: "Ladies and gentlemen, let us congratulate Mr. Cochrane and Miss Hood for their outstanding performance."

Everyone raised their glasses to congratulate this handsome man and beautiful woman.

"What is the reputation dividend and bonus dividend of the Ministry of the Navy?" After taking a sip of the wine, Farida rolled her eyes and asked Horatio in a low voice with some confusion.

"The former is a kind of prestige award from the navy, and the latter is an actual material reward." Horatio took a sip of the wine in his glass and explained with a smile:

"Every time a void ship is captured or effectively sunk, everyone can participate in the dividend according to the tonnage, ship class, rarity, and the supplies and treasures loaded on the ship."

Farida blinked her eyes and listened to Horatio's story.

"In this naval battle, we sank three cruisers, captured a light cruiser, and destroyed four attack ships.

The total prize for capture is equal to the value of the enemy ship, while sinking can only get one-fifth of the value.

The Navy Department rewards the capture of enemy ships more because it not only brings victory, but also brings value to strategy and logistics.

This is also the reason why the Imperial Navy is obsessed with boarding battles: officers are eager to capture enemy ships.

Based on the actual damage caused to the enemy ship by each warship, the warship that wins the duel can obtain all the spoils of the enemy ship, and the warships that participate in the encirclement will be divided in proportion in the first wave.

Of course, this is an internal reward of the Imperial Navy, so the results of the battle caused by the Space Marines and the Adeptus Mechanicus will also be evenly distributed to the naval warships that caused damage to the ship.

Taking the Indefatigable as an example, after the first wave of ship-based dividends are calculated, all the results of the battle distributed by the Indefatigable will be distributed proportionally to the crew members of the entire ship.

Captain Peru, who serves as the fleet commander, is entitled to one-eighth of the total bonus of the entire fleet. In addition, as the captain, he can also receive a quarter of the total bonus pool of the Indefatigable as a reward.

The 69 officers on the Indefatigable will share a quarter of the total bonus of the Indefatigable in proportion according to their qualifications and ranks.

Non-navy officials will receive another quarter, such as technical sages, ship military supervisors, state religion people, medical officers, and hundreds of masters who serve as civil officials.

The last quarter will be distributed to the 150,000 crew members on the ship in proportion to the treatment of the sailors of different ranks. "

"How much do we get?"

Seeing Farida ask this, Horatio estimated it based on the memory he had seen in his mind.

A dreadnought-class light cruiser costs hundreds of millions, not to mention the supplies loaded inside.

"The alternate officer's share is one-third of the captain's share, about 6 million Gothic coins.

It is equivalent to your father's fixed salary for one month when he was free as a rear admiral. If an officer goes off the ship for rest or is not assigned a specific position, his salary will be reduced to half of the original. "

Horatio quickly estimated the amount in his mind based on the conservative figure, and the actual bonus he received was only more, not less, and even close to eight million.

In the last Q-ship battle, Captain Sterling gave Horatio a share according to the captain.

He gave Horatio two captured ships and a quarter of the value of the thousands of tons of Lucius-produced munitions, which added up to ten million.

This time, the share of the alternate officers alone was more than six million.

It is conceivable that in the near future.

The income when he becomes a commissioned lieutenant in the Imperial Navy will definitely make him live a very decent and generous life without worries.
