Chapter 237 The settlement near the wind wall (Part 2)
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, Wovya and Duck finally arrived near the group of seemingly "out of reach" settlement buildings they had just seen.
The construction style here is indeed the same as those official settlements built by the Federation. These settlements, which are close to the size of villages but different from small towns, are generally open and do not surround the general urban area like Xinfeng Town.
To demonstrate the ownership of lords' fiefdoms like in the old empire, or to build high walls like Mayang City to resist the impact of the wave of "unintentional people".
Instead, a simple, even rudimentary road serves as the guide for the entire settlement. The entrance to the entire settlement is a simple office established by the federation earlier, with only a small row of low bungalows and a simple car-blocking fence.
Wofya simply showed his "Federal Military Membership Card" to the inspector in tattered cotton clothes at the entrance. After a brief inspection, he gave a standard Krusted military salute to the two mechanical chariots and left.
After entering the house and briefly communicating with the mysterious people inside, they were let into the settlement.
After driving inward along the road for more than ten minutes, Wovya, Duck and his team parked the mechanical chariot in a parking garage underneath a six-story building that is usually used as a temporary residence for military personnel.
After walking out of the parking garage and coming to the bottom of the six-story building, Duck looked up and saw a row of independent letter signs made of brass erected on the top of the building. When combined, they spelled out "Belunai District"
The development committee directly manages the hotel."
"Wovuya, it seems we are in the right place." Duck said, looking up at this standard federal-style building.
"Yes." Wulfya nodded slightly, but there was a trace of ripples in his calm facial expression and said:
"However, after such a long time, it is not easy to say that the people here are still not completely loyal to the Federation. Duck, I want to remind you that as long as you cross the 'man-made lake' camp and leave the area that the Federation can fully control,
, we have to be more careful.
"The people in these settlements are a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and they don't have any identity tags on their bodies that say 'good guy' or 'bad guy'. Moreover, the dangers here are not the same as those in the 'Suffering Deep Ruins'. In the ruins
The dangers are openly placed in front of you. You know that there are dangers and enemies there. Your spirit will be highly concentrated and tense at all times, and you can avoid attacks from the dark anytime and anywhere, and even make perfect moves.
Fight back.”
"You want to tell me that although this place is peaceful on the surface and has a close connection with the Federation, it is still full of dangers and requires constant vigilance, right?" Dak asked, but there was still a hint of disdain in his tone.
From the bottom of his heart, Dark still believed that the most terrifying things were those "unintentional people" and the lost. He could not have any hatred towards human beings. From the bottom of his heart, he did not think that human nature was as evil as those beasts and livestock.
Perhaps he has something in common with "Echoer" Wright Sogra in this regard. He never wants to really point his sharp blade at his own kind. He hopes to retain a touch of kindness deep in his heart towards human beings.
"I hope you can really listen to what I say, kid." Wulfya was a little angry at Dark's attitude and criticized him unceremoniously, saying:
"Human beings may really be the most despicable and cruel race in the universe. Compared with the 'unintentional people' and the lost, some people are good at acting harmless and showing their most gentle, kind and honest nature in front of you.
One side, but when you really show weakness and sluggishness, he will tear off any disguise and take away everything that belongs to you, even your life.
"One of my comrades-in-arms, he was once a small figure in a stronghold strategic group in the northern border of the Federation. Just because he felt sympathy for a girl who fainted on the roadside, he rescued her regardless of the rules and orders and took her back to the stronghold hospital.
, thus triggering a bloody tragedy.”
"This...that girl is the Lost One, right?" Dark asked, trying to confirm his point of view from the side.
But Wulfya shook his head and sighed:
"Strictly speaking, that girl is a superpower with one-eighth of the blood of the Lost at most. She...is a 'special task force' sent by Chief Vasily to the north to assassinate the 'Vikings'. You also know, Vasily
When the chief took over as the federal chief executive and became the supreme leader, he did not have the prestige and power he has now.
"On the one hand, he needs to get his former subordinates to swear allegiance and win over the support of administrative and military commanders in remote areas. On the other hand, he needs to gradually eliminate the old 'Vikings' who oppose him, attack him, and hinder him in everything, so
I had to take some special measures that could not be protected by the sun's rays."
"Okay, Wulfya, I will always stay focused and pay attention to the dangers coming from around me. However, after living here, I have one more important thing to do." Dark conveyed to Wulfya.
With a look, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, he patted his khaki military backpack where the "old radio" was stored.
Wulfya and Duck walked into the "Direct Management Hotel", and Thalia followed them with "Future" on her back. They walked out of the dense forest where the thick fog disappeared, and passed through the inaccessible ice field area to arrive at this settlement.
Thalia was silent all the way.
On the one hand, he belongs to the "Wilderness Tourist Group" under the category of "independent armed forces" and is still its second-in-command. He was originally separated from Marco and others because of the thick fog. Because he needed to take care of the temporarily insane "Future", he had no choice but to
Only then did he agree to team up with Wulfya and head north.
Originally, the "independent armed forces" generally had irreconcilable conflicts with the Federation Council. If he was seen communicating too much with the Federation [Fighters], she might quickly lose the trust of "Big Brother". Even Talia herself
She is usually used to talking boldly and boldly with others like a man, but the change of circumstances forced her to suppress her innate instinct for expression.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The restraint of desires, firm belief, and strong fighting power that is not inferior to any big man are the keys to her ability to become the number two figure in the organization.
The three of them, together with a "Future" who was temporarily asleep, had just walked into the first floor of the direct management hotel. Before they had time to look at the clean, tidy, luxurious and slightly resplendent furnishings, they walked straight to the hanging Yi
Portrait of Van XXII and Vasily in military uniform on the foreground.
"How many of you...are there?" A man with gray hair, wearing a wrinkled black tuxedo, a face full of wrinkles, and a monocle spoke with a sharp, feminine voice, like a eunuch from the old empire.
The hotel manager stood up and asked.
"We are four people. We want to book three rooms and stay for about a week. I don't think it's too lively here, so there are some rooms." Wofya answered while pretending to observe casually.
All around.
He found that the layout of the entire hotel was very different from the Federal Council's hotel in Binglin City. In addition to some gun models with military elements, artillery shells that had long been unusable, and some legion flags, there were also many with the Central Empire and
Parts of the old empire culture, such as unique, graceful and "pure" sculptures, and a large characteristic wall carved with sunflowers and double-headed eagles surrounded by sunflowers.
Some of the people who come and go here sporadically are businessmen wearing a mixture of Putoa and Cruz German style clothes, and there are also some people who are plainly dressed and classically dressed with fair complexions, and more people whose looks are no different from him and Duck.
Federal [Fighters], or independent armed personnel.
Only on the first floor after entering the door, Wulfya saw the shadows of most of the existing forces of the Federation. Indeed, after it was separated from the direct control of the Federation, it has gradually evolved into a "semi-independent" special zone that allows all kinds of forces to exist.
.
"Is three rooms for four people correct? That is indeed available, but I still recommend that guests book two rooms. If my guess is correct, the boy on the lady's back must be sick. You must
She needs a doctor to treat her. There are two grown men sharing a room, and this lady... looks like she should be the boy's sister. It is more convenient to take care of her if they share a room." The hotel manager took Duck and Wo
Register the IDs of both Fu and Ya, Bian suggested.
"Is this...convenient? Thalia." Wulfya turned around and asked with some worry.
"It's nothing inconvenient. In this situation, I really need to contact our people or find a doctor. 'Future' is my brother. If something happens to him, for example, if he is still so insane, what will happen to us?"
, or it may not be a good thing for you." Thalia replied rationally, borrowing the donkey from the slope and admitting the management's guess.
Even if "Future" does not have a real family relationship with her, they can declare a sister-sister relationship to the outside world, especially since "Future" is still "sick" for the time being, which will slightly reduce the hostility of some others towards them.
After registering the names of several people, the hotel manager handed Wovya a receipt and said:
"The total is 10.5 new rubles. You and Mr. Dark are federal [soldiers]. According to the long-standing "Federal Military Personnel Residence Regulations", your rank has reached hurricane, and you can be exempted from half of the fee. That...
Um, Ms. Thalia and Constantinian must pay in full. By the way, do you pay with gold coins or banknotes?"
"What's the difference between gold coins... and banknotes?" Duck asked, feeling a little confused.
"Guests, you know that these settlements in the 'Beslunai' area are far away from the core area of the Federation. In this wasteland, especially in the chaotic wasteland era, you want to maintain the existence of the settlements.
It takes a lot of effort." The hotel manager explained:
"Our town of Athenasha, although it is only slightly larger than the village, and still has the title of direct administration of the 'Beslunai' area, in fact it has become the private property of the pioneers who stayed here earlier. This place
People do not have much favorable impressions of the Federation. However, due to the continuous success of the Federation's military operations in the north and the maintenance of material supplies, they have to regularly send people to Iceland Province and the Karloff Prefecture to purchase supplies.
"So, the value of gold coins here is higher than that of paper money. After all, gold is a hard currency that can be circulated anywhere, while paper money can only be exchanged for poor materials at federal-controlled strongholds. If you use paper money to pay,
Then the price will be twice as high.”
"That's 21 new rubles, right?" Wofya asked, helplessly taking out a few crumpled banknotes that had been prepared from the inner pocket of his cotton-padded coat and handing them over.
