People, after all, have limits.

After running a few steps, before he could go beyond the city center, a bead of sweat the size of a bean slid down Oz's forehead, and the speed under his feet slowed down.

"Kati ......"

Panting, Oz stopped at the door of the wheat field in the center of the city, his unrecovered strength was only enough for him to run so far, and if he took two more steps, the exhausted Oz would lie on the ground forever. I can't get up again.

"Who are you looking for?"

A familiar and hoarse voice pierced Oz's eardrums.

Oz raised his head with great effort and smiled miserably at Zhao Zhuo, who had a new injury in front of him.

"Boss, did you see a little skinny boy? He was in his early twenties, very thin, and his legs and feet were not good. ”

Oz is talking about Katy, and "Boss" is the name given to the capable by the civilians who have reborn sin. Years of reluctance, let the weak habitually please those who can bring them security.

"You mean Kati, because he kept those zombies in check, so it was very convenient for me to clean up. He was bitten on the arm by a few zombies, but if he didn't tighten it, he could just apply some medicine. ”

"Now we all have antibodies to the virus in our bodies, and as long as we are not seriously injured or killed, we will basically not be infected with mutations."

Zhao Zhuo understated the power of the corpse tide a little, although the incident had been perfectly resolved at this time, but after all, it was a small corpse tide, and Zhao Zhuo and the others who went to deal with it also hung up their colors.

Oz was relieved to hear this, construction in this kind of place is inherently dangerous, even if you don't meet zombies or dangerous animals, bumps and bumps are common, and Oz has long been accustomed to it.

It's just that he just walked through before the ghost gate, and Oz still has palpitations.

"Thank you, Boss. Then I'll go back to my dorm ,,, first. ”

Oz has been in the underworld for half his life, and he doesn't know much about the etiquette of the righteous way, so he bowed crookedly, which can be regarded as expressing his gratitude to Zhao Zhuo.

But I don't want Zhao Zhuo to be mixed with society, looking at Oz's current appearance, he looks like Zhao Zhuo himself who once nodded to the city management in Far Star City.

Zhao Zhuo laughed, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

A familiar scene, but his identity has changed. The person in front of him is no longer the city manager who once laughed together......

Seeing that Zhao Zhuo was not as ferocious as he appeared, and even a little approachable, Oz's courage naturally increased, and he asked cautiously:

"Boss, I want to take the liberty of asking, my medical bills ......"

"Don't think about paying back that medical bill, with your current contribution value, you will have to work for several years in vain if you don't eat or drink."

"Do you know Lin Yilong's Corpse Tide Alliance? There are more than 60 abilities, many of whom are intermediate or even advanced abilities, and the consumption of a day is about the same as your medical expenses. ”

Oz suddenly shuddered, but fortunately he was reborn into sin.

Oz has also been in other camps, and sometimes people give up treatment while they are still awake. In that case, who else will burn money against their unconscious self?

"Thank you,,, Boss!" Oz trembled, but saw Zhao Zhuo looking at him with a smile.

"Do you have anything you want to protect? Person? Material? Or is it status? Zhao Zhuo asked jokingly, and Oz, who asked for a while, was at a loss.

"Who do you want to protect?" Zhao Zhuo reiterated, the words were more obvious.

was emphasized by Zhao Zhuoyi, Oz also understood what Zhao Zhuo meant, and said with a smile: "I just hope they can live better, people like me are even a problem to live in this world, how can they talk about protecting others?" ”

Zhao Zhuo laughed: "So you and I are a bit similar, a few months ago, I was just like you, I was still a civilian, thinking that it would be good to just mess around like this for a lifetime, take relief money every day, and bully and bully high school students...... It's just that we don't have many capable people there, so the status of civilians is not as low as yours. ”

"Now we can live well, at least we don't have to worry about living......"

Who knows, when Oz said this, Zhao Zhuo's face suddenly changed, and he scolded: "Egged like this, there is no gangster boss at all!" ”

Oz was startled at first, then remembered how he had been in the Red Stick...... Truth be told, it's a lot of change. And the biggest change may be that I am becoming more and more stable.

It's just that sometimes I miss my old life, the Oz that Shiya has never seen.

"To truly protect a person, you don't need to be strong, as long as you have the determination to give everything to protect her/him. I didn't believe it before, but since I saw Lin Yi's changes, I believe it. ”

Zhao Zhuo soothed a little, and said in a calm tone, "Now, I'll give you someone who has the ability to protect and want to protect, and even protect the reborn sin, are you either?" ”

Zhao Zhuo is serious, and he doesn't mean to joke at all.

For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, and only the surrounding crowd of people who were off work sometimes looked curiously here.

The small corpse tide was found and solved quickly, and only the area where Kati worked was affected, and other places heard some news at most.

However, many capable people are hard to come by, and it is only in the rebirth sin that everyone has seen capable people and civilians talk so freely.

In other camps, even those who have just awakened their abilities will gradually refrain from interacting with civilians, and cut off their relations with ordinary civilians as soon as possible.

"Hahaha, boss, you're kidding, aren't you? I did work as a gangster leader in the old world for a few days, but it was all a small fight among civilians, and I couldn't get on the stage. ”

"Is there any difference between civilians and capable people other than strength? In this camp, except for Long Jinsoft and Little Sister Kath, the other abilities are all awakened from civilians. ”

"Kath used to go to the same high school with civilians, and Lin Yi also came out of that high school, and he was still a civilian at that time. Now, who doesn't recognize him as mayor? It's just that you have to change the problem of disappearing at every turn......"

Zhao Zhuo seemed to have to prove to Oz that civilians were not completely useless, but Oz couldn't think of any intentions, but fortunately, Zhao Zhuo was also a straightforward person, and when he saw Oz hesitating, he directly explained the matter:

"A few of us want to get a militia team out, and we want a deputy team, so it's better for you to be the best team. Courage, perseverance, and experience. ”

"Militia? Is it the meaning of civilian mercenaries? ”

Oz questioned that there is no concept of an army in the New World, and in order to rationally allocate a few resources, weapons such as guns are basically in the hands of capable people, and only mercenaries who lick blood on the tip of their knives will let civilians rush forward with guns as cannon fodder.

Zhao Zhuo didn't know what the militia meant, the security of Far Star City was handled by the city lord alone, and below the city lord was the chengguan brigade, but unfortunately the chengguan didn't take a gun.

"That's probably what it means, but we don't accept mercenary or aggression, and the militia is only responsible for the safety of the reborn sin. Oh yes, the name was given by Lin Yi, and it seems to come from the old world......"

"How? In fact, we have already decided, we are here to ask for advice, after all, we will not force you to do things. However, the contribution of the militia captain is certainly higher than that of the construction team, and even catches up with those of our ability. ”

"As a final reminder, the militia recruitment order will be issued in a few days, and when the deputy mayor who collected advanced materials at Sandstone Fort returns, you can officially appoint the militia captain."

Even though Zhao Zhuo was talking endlessly, Oz had already fallen into deep thought.

But when I think about it, it seems that I can also believe that this is the arrangement of fate.

"I should." Oz said heartily, and suddenly, a strong sense of mission arose.
