Chapter 265 Eve 1

The battle is over.

Outside the Angry Reef City, there are traces of the battle. Countless fragments of the collapsed sentry tower bursting all over the ground, and the bombed fortifications are now left with thick dust. Several shocking pits were left on the ground, which were masterpieces of portable missiles. As for the glazed black marks, they are the rampant labeling of plasma*.

Ron's soldiers are planning the battlefield. After this battle, the company's soldiers have been sharply reduced from 200 to about 30 now. But Tongus and Ross didn't care, which did not mean that they were indifferent, although the people in the wilderness never lacked enthusiasm. But the fall of more than 100 lives will also bother them.

In addition, Ron Company needs to provide a subsidy for the war dead who have families to help these families survive this cold winter now that have lost their pillars. But that's all. Ron can't and has no obligation to do more.

However, just like the darkness before dawn, the cold winter will always pass. Ron's losses in this battle can be compensated by the weapons, locomotives and even prisoners left by the DK Corps. In half a year or even less, the company can return to its pre-war scale. Tongus and Ross have never doubted this. As long as they live, there will be hope!

But now, there is another problem that needs to be solved.

Tungus and Rosser had a headache watching the black man sitting next to the tank car that was stepped on as a discus. After the iron-clad rhino almost trampled the whole convoy of the DK Legion, the beast shrunk and changed, and finally became the resolute black warrior. The black man wears a tight tactical suit, revealing his perfect muscle lines.

The tactical suit is covered with white armor templates on the chest, shoulders and knees, which obviously adds additional protection to these parts. On the template of the chest, a warhammer pattern wrapped by an electric snake is engraved. Tongus and the two wanted to break their heads, but they couldn't figure out which organization the pattern represented.

Whether it was a gift or other reason, Tongus should have invited the black man into the city and entertained him. But when the two put forward this idea, the black man refused, and then sat silently by the discus and didn't know what he wanted to do. The two had no choice but to stay with each other. After a while, two more figures appeared in the snowy road. Tongus and Rosser stood up nervously, but heard the black man say in a low voice, "Don't be nervous. They are my companions."

"Companion?" Tongus looked at a man and a woman who took care of themselves from the snowwalk, wearing the same style of uniform. The chest of the uniform has a war hammer pattern like a black man, explaining the definition of companions.

The people who came were Feng and Su. When they walked to Ma Pei's side, Feng casually threw something at Tongus and the two. The round thing stopped when it came to Ross's feet, but it was Dekes's head. Dekes' eyes were round, and his surprised expression was fixed on this face forever.

Looking at the head of the mob leader, Rose and Tongus looked at each other in contempt.

Feng pointed to the head and smiled, "This is an extra gift."

Tungus took a step forward and said, "The three have helped us a lot. Please come to the city with us. Nujiao City is not rich, but there is still wine and barbecue.

In turbulent times, wine and meat have become a luxury. And unpolluted food is even more difficult to find. Even Asgatri, Feng and others eat mostly synthetic ingredients, rather than natural food.

In the depths of the angry reef city, there is an underground manor opened by Ron's company. The soil with minimal radiation can meet the minimum planting requirements for fruits such as grapes, which will be sold as wine after maturity, thus providing additional income for Nujiao City. Dozens of unmutated poultry raised in the manor can occasionally improve the food at the upper level of Ron's company.

Now, Tongusken took out wine and barbecue to thank him, which can be said to be the highest-level thank-you gift in Nujiao City. But even so, Feng said lightly, "Thank you for your kindness, but we have to wait for another person."

"Who?"

"Our captain..."

Before Feng finished speaking, he suddenly turned his head to look at the northern wilderness, and then smiled and said, "He's coming."

Tungus and Ross looked together. In their eyes, there was nothing on the horizon of the wilderness. But a moment later, a figure appeared alone on the horizon and walked in their direction. Soon, a man wearing the same tactical suit as the black man appeared in their eyes. When Tongus saw the golden eyes on the man's face, the big man exclaimed.

"What?" Rose looked at him puzzledly.

"It's a friend of Master." Tongus said urgently.

"That warmonger will also have friends?" Rose looked disdainful.

"I can't talk about friends, but there is a cooperative relationship. I remember Master talking about him, as if it was zero. Yes, that's the name, the man who gave the parkland chaebol a headache. Tongus added.

※※※※※※※※※※

"Cheers! Let's pay tribute to the warriors!"

In the long-lost Abron Tavern, Master's excited cry sounded. He held his glass high, accompanied by the soldiers of Ron Company and Tongus. After Zero came, the four of them were invited to the Angry Reef City by Tongus and Ross. At the same time, Tongus also informed the two old acquaintances of Master and Victor, and agreed to meet in the Abron Tavern and hold a simple celebration at the same time.

This time, it not only repelled the attack of the DK Corps, but also defeated the armed mob. Although it is the credit of more than 0 people, the information sent out after the packaging of Tongus and others will only make people think that Nujiao City has fought a beautiful battle. It can be imagined that after the cold winter, the well-known Angry Reef City can attract more soldiers and technical talents to join.

In the wilderness, warriors and technicians in other fields are fundamental to urban development. And a powerful city can attract more talents.

Naturally, few people will not go to Nujiao City to care about who fought this battle. For them, these are irrelevant things. On the contrary, delicious wine and food are more practical rewards. Even if there is not much demand for food, when you taste the golden steak, you will inadvertently give a sense of satisfaction.

The pub is about to be crowded. In addition to the personnel of Ron's company, ordinary citizens have also crowded in to join in the fun. Naturally, more than a few people have attracted public attention. Among them, Feng, who is handsome and funny, is naturally favored by women, and her hot figure has also attracted the attention of many men. Even Ma Pei, a black soldier, now surrounds the soldiers of Ron Company to fight for wine.

The atmosphere of the pub was warm and harmonious, and I drank a sip of Ron's wine. The taste of wine is a little bitter, which is not as bitter as the sprinkling made in the old days. But now it is very rare to drink this quality of wine, so this glass of wine is very slow to drink.

One hand patted Zero's shoulder, and Zero found that someone was walking to him. In terms of his sensitivity, even in the complex environment of pubs, it is rare to be noticed by people walking aside. But Zero now deliberately lowered his ** degree, relax the tense nerve, and let himself be a little lazy for a while.

Turning his head, Zero saw Master and Victor. The two obviously drank a lot, and their faces were red and full of wine. Master walked to the other side, hugged Zero's shoulder hard, and whispered, "It's good to see you again!"

Master is not a easily moved person. On the contrary, he is like a sophisticated machine that calculates different scales between different people. But tonight he seems to be a little different. It seems that there are reasons for him to move enough.

On the contrary, Dr. Victor is more rational. After looking at Zero from head to toe, he said, "It seems that you are doing well."

Zero smiled and said, "It's okay."

"It may be that he is already a big shot." Master joked beside him and poured a sip of wine into his mouth. Ron didn't send much wine, and Master just drank a glass. Now the glass is filled with beer made by the Abron Tavern. Naturally, it can't be compared with wine in terms of taste and taste, but Master prefers this bad wine.

After drinking two cups in a row, he looked at Zero with a pair of red eyes and said, "I said, big man. Why do you have time to come to a rural place like ours?

Victor also looked at zero, which is different from the past. Although we have only been separated for more than three months, it makes people feel that they have experienced it for a long time. Zero's breath is more calm and restrained than before, with a faint majesty between his eyebrows, which is a manifestation of the ability to advance again.

And the three companions brought by Zero are also strong and capable people. For Ma Pei, who smashed the entire DK Corps fleet array alone, and Feng and Su, who killed Dekes, later evaluated Tonggus, and concluded that these people have at least five levels of ability and have been promoted professionally. Power. Professional promotion is not easy for capable people in the wilderness. Several ordinary promotion potions sold by the Dark Council are also expensive things. What's more, these things, like natural ingredients, are valuables that money may not be obtained.

The four people are obviously advanced capable. For people in the wilderness, as Master said, they are all big shots. Zero, the world they see is wider than ordinary people, and the world they operate in is not what ordinary people can imagine. At least for a small place like Nujiao City, few people with promotion ability will come, let alone four people!

No matter how stupid people are, they know that the arrival of the four promotions is not accidental, not to mention Dr. Victor and Master, who have had a certain friendship with Zero.

Zero answered truthfully, "I want to take Dr. Victor to a place..."

With that, he turned to Master and said, "At the same time, some jobs want to bother you."

"It seems interesting. Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Master asked the bartender for another glass of beer and paid for it, indicating that this was his last glass of wine tonight.

Zero looked at Victor and said in a low voice: "I have raised the upfront funds needed for the rebirth plan, as well as the site and equipment needed for a plan. I think that place is safer and more well-equipped than the wilderness. So, if the doctor agrees, I will ask someone to come and pick you up tomorrow.

"That sounds like a good place." Victor drank all the wine in his glass and burped and said, "Although I prefer the angry reef city, I won't go back on what I promised you. Not to mention tomorrow, it's okay to leave now. Anyway, I don't have much to pack."

He nodded and said seriously, "Thank you, doctor."

"It's too polite to say that." Master laughed and said, "You have done a big favor for Angry Reef. Even if Victor doesn't agree, I will help you stuff him into your car. Well, let's talk about the matter between us."

Drink all the wine left in the glass, and then said lightly, "I want to collect some interest with Parkland by the way. They don't owe me a little bit now. That should be a big number, but you know, we don't have people who are good at financial management. So I think maybe you can manage the money on our behalf and make it more.

Master suddenly calmed down. After a moment, he climbed onto the stage and pulled his throat and roared, "Kids, eat and drink as much as you can. All the accounts tonight are mine!"

After saying that, the whole pub was immediately cheered. Master is far from generous, and there are not many opportunities for him to treat him. At that moment, people rudely called for more beer and other things to eat and drink. This distressed the owner of the pub, and I don't know if the little thing in the cellar is enough for so many people to eat.

And Master on the bar wingged at Zero. Although he didn't say anything, he agreed to Zero's request in another way. Master jumped down and bypassed the crowd and drilled into the pub kitchen. There is a small reception room behind there, which is a suitable place to talk about in detail. Zero followed, and soon he lost his figure in the pub.

But the pub is so lively that even Feng and others don't know when Zero left.

※※※※※※※※※※

The blizzard not only raged in the south, but also left its strong traces in the north.

It's night, and the Blue Ridge Mountains are shrouded in night. But the city where the Parkland chaebol belongs did not sleep, and the beam of light skimmed through the night sky from time to time showed that the city was still working.

It is on the square with tulip patterns in the city, at the top of a 16-story building. In the old Brant's bedroom, the fireplace is burning brightly, and the heating system in the room is also supplying hot air with enough humidity. But even so, the old man wrapped in a thick fur coat still feels indescribably cold.

Old Brant is sixty-one. In this turbulent era, he is too old to be old. In terms of the average life expectancy of 40 years in the wilderness, the old Brant who had no ability should have died long ago. But although he is not capable, he is rich. Over the years, Old Brant has extended his life with the genetic medicine provided by the Dark Parliament.

He sat in a rocking chair, and the past was vivid in his mind. On the day of the cataclysm, he was a ten-year-old child, and the disaster that fell from the sky made Brant, who had a happy family, lose everything. He was one of the survivors of the catastrophe. Only a thousand people were lucky to survive on the ruins of the city where Brant was almost flattened by meteorites.

But Brant never thought he was lucky, because if he also died in that disaster, he would not have to go through the next dark decade.

In that dark history, even those who now have strong capabilities can't help shivering when they think of it, not to mention the old Brant, an old man with no ability.

The arrival of meteorite snow has wiped out nearly 90% of the life on the earth, countless cities have become ruins, the ozone layer that protects the earth has been worn out, and the whole planet is exposed to the strong radiation of outer space like undefense.

Even the lucky ones in the day of catastrophe continue to die in the next few months or even shorter. After that, Death seemed to stay on earth forever, and a large number of people died of radiation every day. In just ten years, the number of human beings has plummeted from 500 million to tens of millions of people, which is a terrible reduction.

In the past ten years, the radiation all over the earth gradually formed in the sky with the rise of air and dust, and finally shrouded in thick radiation clouds. The speed of human death has slowed down, and at the same time, the mutation of humans and other creatures has quietly started in the past decade.

If the survivors of the catastrophe are lucky, then the person who survived the darkest decade and survived is simply the darling of the world. And old Brant was also lucky to survive and work hard from a small food processing factory. Now, 40 years later, he has pieced together the territory of Parkland's commercial kingdom.

However, now, the hard-working kingdom of old Brandt is facing the dilemma of no successor.

He took out an old photo from his arms with trembling hands, which was taken ten years ago, which was a photo of the Brant family. In the photo, there is a stubborn boy standing on the right side of old Brant. The boy has beautiful eyebrows and golden hair.

That's Sauron, the old man's favorite grandson. In the next decade, Sauron's talent in the elemental domain brought hope to this family without half of the ability in his blood.

Old Bran had secretly drawn up a will when Sauron joined the bloody knight of the dark parliament. The will clearly stated that Sauron would be his next successor, but when Sauron was supposed to be in the sun, the excellent young man was broken into the hands of a mercenary in the wilderness.

At the thought of this, old Brant couldn't help covering his fur coat tighter. But this was not enough to reduce the chill rising from his heart, so old Bran began to say another person's name, the man who was about to fall into the winter.

Zero!

(Recently, the child has a tooth fever and is in a bad mood, so the update is relatively slow. Please forgive me. In addition, tomorrow is the 21st. Let's wait for the sunshine of the 22nd together!)
