In the past, workers who lived here had little skills and happened to have played a role in the early stages of its establishment. As the Eastern Satellite City grew and developed, they were pushed to the most marginalized position.
The oxygen here is thin because it is the farthest away from the oxygen supply system.
This place is exposed to strong sunlight all year round because there are huge solar panels outside.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of water here, that's just because the unfiltered water source happens to be in the outer area.
Many times, for people living in outer areas, this place is not even comparable to the civilian areas on the ground.
However, they are still very proud.
At least being able to live in a satellite city is a sign of success in the eyes of many people on the ground.
Of course, for some people, this may not be the case.
"Bah!" An Yining spat in disgust. It was the water he had just taken a sip of. He didn't say anything, but his patience in his heart had almost reached its limit.
He came to the Eastern Satellite City three months ago through a recruitment plan. When he arrived, he was assigned to this desolate area. In his own words.
Even dogs don’t live here, so I came running eagerly.
Obviously he didn't come voluntarily.
He is one of the peripheral members of Tianmu.
Over the years, Tianmu has developed countless peripheral members, including ordinary people, awakened people, and even talented and favored people like warrior awakened people. These people all have a unified name--Umbrella Outsiders.
It is said that only those outside the umbrella who are recognized by the insiders of Tianmu can truly enter the inside. Once they become insiders, they are not far away from becoming the legendary god.
An Yining didn't want to become a god. The reason why he chose to join Tianmu was entirely because the other party promised to get fifty yuan a month and take care of the food.
However, after he, an ordinary person, signed a contract that he could not understand at all, he was thrown directly into Yangcheng, near the ground base of the Eastern Satellite City, and a word was left behind.
"Find a way to sneak in, or you will die."
Fortunately, An Yining has been on the ground for so long and has learned nothing else. His eloquence is first-rate. He just made a fool of himself and talked a young soldier so hard that he couldn't find his way around and took him east.
satellite city.
But just when he thought the task was completed and he could get the fifty yuan, he suddenly thought of a key question.
I did come in, but who can I ask for the fifty yuan? Should I report to the alliance: I am an outsider of Tianmu. I successfully sneaked in. Please inform Tianmu for me and call me the fifty yuan you promised.
.
Although he is a little brainless, he is not so stupid that he doesn't know what the outsiders are doing.
To be precise, it is a link in Tianmu's huge human intelligence chain. Tianmu is a huge organization that can fight against any of the satellite cities. A large part of this organization is composed of outsiders, and the number of core internal members is said to be very small.
, of course, is also very mysterious. Even the umbrella manager, the manager who is responsible for managing outsiders in a certain area, does not know how many internal members there are.
The mysterious man Li Yi met in the dungeon looked extremely powerful, but he was not an internal member.
On this day, An Yining, an umbrella outsider, received a notice from his superior, the umbrella stand, asking him to follow everyone to attend a big party in the city. He was also given something and told to take it and contact him when he got there.
I didn't want to go at first, but when I heard the other party say something like this, it seemed to be intentional or unintentional.
"I heard that there will be a lot of food at this big party, and it's not the kind of artificial ingredients, which is very rare..."
The next moment, An Yining had already set off, fearing that he would not be able to make it to the banquet.
Surprisingly, the guards who had been heavily guarded in various urban areas in the past did not show up at their respective posts. So An Yining was able to arrive at the central city smoothly. The first thing that caught his eye was not the long snow-white legs that were dancing on the stage.
, but the long row of tables under the stage, which were filled with delicacies that he couldn't name, but they were delicious at first glance.
The next moment, he was standing on one of the tables. There were delicacies he knew, such as braised pork, roasted corn, and fragrant grilled fish. This kind of food was probably eaten only once a year, and it was laid out without any obstruction.
In front of An Yining, his long-hidden DNA was ready to move, as if he was about to pounce on it and have a feast.
He simply remembered the instructions from the umbrella stand, took out what the other party gave him, and pressed it lightly in his pocket when no one was looking. It is said that this will allow the umbrella stand to receive his message.
Then he pounced on the food like a hungry tiger, rushed up and started gobbling it up.
His actions did not attract the attention of the people responsible for maintaining law and order around him, because before An Yining, at least hundreds of people from the outer area were like this. At this moment, the people surrounding the area where the food was placed
, almost all such people.
Of course, this does not mean that no one saw it. On a hidden lookout not far away, a young soldier was watching every move of these people with concentration, muttering to himself, and occasionally taking notes in his notebook.
What.
"The guy named Hu Erniu made a gesture of taking out his pocket, but didn't take out his hand. It's a bit suspicious. I'll write it down first."
"Also, that Ma Er ate quite quickly. He must be hungry, but why does he look so sad?"
"Captain, what are we doing? Didn't you tell us to protect the perimeter?" The soldier next to him looked puzzled. Seeing his captain so focused, he couldn't help but ask.
"You know nothing! This is the job of guarding the perimeter. Keep an eye on me and let me know if there are new arrivals." The captain reprimanded him.
The little warrior muttered: "What the hell...aren't these people just ordinary people? After looking at them so carefully, I even recognize some of them."
When the captain heard this, he was stunned, turned around, and stared at the little soldier: "What did you just say?"
The little soldier was startled by the captain's actions and stammered: "Ah... that, no. Captain, I didn't say anything."
"I want you to repeat what you just said!"
The little soldier was stunned by the captain's attitude, and it took him a while to come back to his senses: "Yes! Report to the captain, I know most of the people here. They used to be from our place, and they are neighbors."
The captain lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and asked, "I remember you are from Baimian Mountain, right?"
The little soldier looked shy and a little embarrassed: "Captain, do you remember who we are? Yes, our village was attacked by a mysterious team. Everyone couldn't survive, so they had no choice but to come all the way to join us."
From a satellite city.”
The captain looked serious: "I remember you said that those people were of very high quality in combat and made almost no unnecessary movements. After the whole battle, the few guns in your village were disarmed without any chance of resistance."
"Yes, yes, captain, you have a very good memory." The little warrior looked at his captain with admiration.
"I still remember you said a word. I also said that you couldn't describe it. How could you compare people to machines?"
The little soldier nodded vigorously: "Yes! I said at that time that these soldiers are not human beings at all. Our winter is very cold, and our chins will freeze off if we don't wear thicker clothes. But those people only wear single clothes and single pants.
Their movements did not deform at all, as if they were not affected at all, and the way they looked at people revealed an evil nature."
"How do you say it? What is evil nature?" The captain vaguely grasped the key point and asked quickly.
"They look at the surviving people in our village just like we usually look at chickens and ducks. Have you ever seen a chicken killed? It's that kind of thing! When I saw that look, I thought, it's over, this gang
The look in his eyes didn't change even when he was killing people. But, hey! Guess what? They actually let us all go and ordered us not to go back to the village again."
"You mean, you guys were driven out of the village by these people?" the captain asked word for word.
"That's right, a group of soldiers forced us to flee with guns, so what else can we do?" the little soldier said, completely unaware that the corners of his captain's mouth had formed a crescent shape.
"Xiao Bai, if you succeed this time, I will give you a big credit!"
The little soldier looked at his captain with a blank expression, not understanding what was happening.
