First Shot
Seeing the quick menu, only two names came to my mind, Men of War: Assault Squad Two and Call to Arms.
But as luck would have it, three of the options in the quick menu were grey.
My luck bar was reaching new heights, maybe someday in the future, it will crack the planet in half.
The two available choices were, option 2:
2) Army platoon - Calls thirty-two Soldier II and four Veteran I soldiers
260 SP + 468 SP(weapons)
And option 4:
4) Tank crew
50 SP+ 665 SP(weapons)
Other options were so expensive that I couldn't not even thinking about, exchanging for them. The tank needed more than 200,000 SP. While QRF was like a dangling carrot, right in front of you. It as like looking at my favourite gaming pc setup, which cost about half a year of your pay, but still thinking about buying it.
But man having a JLTV under your command would be so wicked. If I had it back on earth than surely it would be 10 times cooler, but oh well.
Last but not the least special force option was bringing goosebumps just by seeing their weapons price. Now it was slightly clear why it cost so much to maintain a countries army. Just summoning them would be a problem, so training them and the expanses procured while training them is certainly going to be sky-high.
Looking at the cheaper option, the tank crew was directly eliminated, because a tank crew without a tank would be worthless. I also didn't think that I had enough SP two summon both options. How I could tell this, well I will say it was my sixth sense ringing.
Now the only feasible option remaining was option 2, summoning an army platoon, having 36 soldiers. With thirty-two soldier II and four veteran I. I was pleasantly surprised at how many well-trained men I could summon, in this option as well as how cheap it was. But after seeing their weapon's SP, I felt that the army platoon which I will be summoning used to be commanded by a king's bastard, otherwise how could same army had people with such poor weapons. And what made it worse was that I couldn't even see, their loadout prior to the summoning.
Seeing that I had no other option, I could only choose to summon option 2.
bzzz.

5 seconds, after pressing the option nothing happened. No miracle soldiers were appearing in front of me saying ' We live to serve you, my liege'. Where were my damn soldiers? Thinking that the system might still be broken, my heart stopped beating.
When I once again saw the quick menu, under option two something was written.
' Error. Move to more open space to summon successfully'.
Seeing this my face hardened, I just got a heart attack, because I was summoning in an enclosed space.
$#@&
Now that summoning was not a problem, I went ahead and prepare the remaining cockroach's meat.
After ten minutes, the aroma of meat filled the kitchen. I laid down food on the table and had it with relish.
Hmm, my spoon clashed with an empty plate, it was then I noticed that I had eaten all the food. But the problem was that I was not full and still feeling hungry.
So as a civilised my I went back and to cooking again. In the first serving, I had used nearly one-third of the eatable meat, so I was prepared to make one third once again. Maybe it was because of the activation of the system I was feeling hungry. But then I changed my mind and prepared all the remaining meat, thinking I should change my hideout, as, with the addition of 36 members new members, this place was not enough.
After some time I was looking at the table in amazement as I had finished the whole meat before even realising. Now I could only pack bones to bring with me.
Thinking about my bodies new metabolism, I could only shake my head.
I packed all my stuff while getting dumping all the garbage. Most of the garbage consisted of copper wiring, some plumbing that I found in the abandoned building, and some motor, gears, that I took from broken stuff.
It is a type of currency in this apocalyptic world. But now I had no use of them, as I will have many able-bodied men under me soon, well until the Sp runs out, and I figure out how to make more SP.
'And also figure out how many I had.'
Placing my service gun in the bag, I put it on. Other than my service gun, the bag had 2 bottles of water, some kind of can that has weird-smelling something in it, just in case, after all, I am able to eat cockroach meat in just 13, ah no know its 14 days, of my transmigration. And a rope, well technically a pert of rope, as it is only a little more than 1.5 meters.
Oh and also I am wearing a green army uniform, with boots and a handgun, so I think that whoseever's body I took used to be of someone from the army. And so I had a pistol with 5 bullets with when I woke up. Of which I had to use two bullets to scare off some men, who thought I was an easy target.
I kept desert eagle, in my service guns holster, which, obviously didn't fit, but it had to do. and the SSA was in my hand.
Glancing around the rooms, kitchen and the bathroom I checked, that I was not missing something.
Then I looked out of the window to see if there was some movement.
But next second I froze. Because now I had the map, so I didn't have to do it manually.
Checking the map and making everything was alright. I stepped out of the main door and went toward the stairs.
After deciding I walked up the stairs, toward the terrace of the apartments.
Now that I was finally going to do summoning, I felt a little nervous. What will I do if the summoning doesn't happen?
Clearing my minding, taking deep breaths, I calmed myself. I open the quick menu and select the second option.
A pop-up box came up on my vision, it had three option:
1) Summoning all at once
2) Summoning one by one
3) Summoning in group
Seeing these option I was stunned, I didn't even know that I could do it like this.
After thinking about it I selected option one.
My vision changed once again, and many small circles on the terrace could be seen, through the screen, and a new pop-up box popped up with a button stating 'Summon Now'.
The moment I clicked the button like magic 36 men were standing in front of me.
"Sir", all the men as one gave a salute to me. I was stunned seeing them just appear in front of me.
Coming out of my daze I saw four men standing just in front of me, and all the other member were standing at their random summoning position. The four guys seemed more battle-hardened than the rest, now I knew without even seeing their stats, the difference between soldiers and the veterans.
What baffled me was that these men were not in army tunics or battle dress but were wearing army T-shirt and trousers. They were even barefooted, but at least they had a pistol in their gun holster. Now I knew why their weapon amount was so low, it was because they have no weapon other than the pistol. Just when I was about to ask if they were really some king's bastard army part before summoning.
Tak.
A bullet just passed missing a soldier, who standing near the terrace railing.
