Chapter 26: Rhodes, King of the Earth
In the early morning, everyone packed their luggage and valuables into the trunk of the Wanyan off-road vehicle.
The car was driven by Xiao Jingyun, and Wan Yan sat in the co-pilot to guard and snipe the enemies encountered on the road.
The three children in the group sat in the back seat of the SUV, while the survivor camp, including Han Lin, was crammed into the back compartment with the two bodies and luggage.
Although it was a little crowded, the people who were about to start a new life were still chatting happily.
When they came, the target location of the pursuit of Xiao Wan was not clear, so Wan Yan and the others spent a few days.
Now the journey back is a familiar road, speeding all the way, even if the sound of the car alarms some monsters, they are all sniped by Wanyan before they can get close.
Han Lin sat in the trunk of the car, looking up at the sky, but in his heart he was recalling what happened before he woke up.
He was once an elite soldier in the "Dead" of the government's secret department, and their mission was to hunt down the monsters that appeared inexplicably.
As an elite warrior of the "deceased", he received one last task before he fell asleep: to close the gate of crossing.
This mission is carried out by all the powerful forces in the world, all the secret forces of the organization.
This black hole-like space gate was discovered above the North Pole, and the powerful energy transmitted from the door was the same as the energy of monsters around the world.
Countries have launched nuclear bombs to destroy them, only to find that the Gate of Passage has absorbed the energy of the nuclear bomb and opened it faster.
If such a huge portal is opened normally, the consequences will be unimaginable, so the top level of the world government summoned all the strongest forces in the world to destroy the portal together, and Han Lin was one of them.
When they arrived at the Gate of Passage, the Gate of Passage had already opened a little, and strange energy gushed out, shaking the heavens and the earth, and countless monsters and demons roared out from the door.
Han Lin and the others fought for an unknown amount of time, and finally retreated, and Han Lin was also seriously injured and passed out while covering his teammates.
It seems that after he was sent to the repair chamber, demons descended on the human world and slaughtered most of the human race. He slept in the restoration chamber and was buried in the rubble, escaping.
Half a sleep, the vicissitudes of life......
Are you still alive, brothers who once fought side by side......
At this time, the off-road vehicle slowly stopped.
"That's it! Everyone, we're here! ”
Wan Yan's crisp voice interrupted Han Lin's contemplation, and he slowly got up and got out of the car with everyone.
"Welcome to the Dawn Sanctuary!"
Wan Yan stood in front of the gate and said loudly to everyone.
Everyone looked up, this is a fenced town, although the 3-meter-high fence does not play a big role in protection, but it can also buy people the necessary time to react.
At the entrance, the two wide electric side-slip iron doors opened, and the two guards with iron swords and pistols at their waists stood with serious expressions and their bodies collapsed straight on both sides of the gate.
Seeing Wan Yan coming over, the two first men immediately saluted and said, "Guard No. 7 salutes you!" Please undergo routine check-ups! ”
Then the two guards conducted a detailed search and interrogation of the people, and after confirming that there were no problems, they saluted the people again, signaling that they could pass.
Everyone got into the car again, and since the departments and processes of receiving ordinary people and the awakened were different, Wan Yan took them to the department responsible for the storage of civilians first.
She handed over Kelly and other ordinary people to the shelter to arrange work and accommodation, where Kelly and the others will receive unified training and division of labor to adapt to life here.
Seeing Liu Jie, Kelly and the others saying goodbye to each other with red eyes, Wan Yan couldn't help laughing: "What are you doing here?" After the training, you can still meet, and we will live together in this shelter from now on, and you will actually say goodbye, you will amuse me to death. ”
Hearing Wan Yan laughing, Liu Jie and the others blushed and ended the farewell ceremony that they didn't need.
Afterwards, Wan Yan and the others took Han Lin and Liu Jie to the center of the shelter: the administrative center building, which is where the founder of the vault, King Rod, is located.
"Liu Jie, didn't you notice? Along the way, we also met a lot of ordinary people. Although most of them are poorly dressed and emaciated, they are all full of energy, with a relaxed smile on their faces, revealing a real vitality and vitality from the inside out, they really like it here, it seems that the Dawn Refuge is really a good choice for Kelly and them. ”
"And there are you, you are the Awakened, and they can live well with you in the future."
Han Lin saw that Liu Jie was still a little apprehensive, so he opened his mouth to comfort him.
"Hmm."
Liu Jie just hadn't figured it out yet, but when he heard Han Lin say this, he suddenly understood, exhaled lightly, and nodded.
"Okay, Han Lin, Liu Jie, we're here."
Wan Yan said to Han Lin and Liu Jie.
The two got out of the car, and the car came to a ten-story building, which was magnificent and magnificent, and at first glance it was the government department of the town.
The three of them made their way to the top floor of the building, where there was a huge office with a closed door.
"Wait a minute, Xiao Jingyun and I will go and report."
Then Wan Yan and Xiao Jingyun tidied up their clothes and knocked on the door, and when they heard a thick male voice from inside, they opened the door and went in with serious expressions.
After a while, Wan Yan opened the door and smiled at Han Lin and the others: "Han Lin, Liu Jie, Lord Rhodes wants to see you." ”
Han Lin and the two glanced at each other and stepped in.
Entering the huge office, Han Lin saw Xiao Jingyun standing straight to the side, while an unusually burly middle-aged man in the middle of the hall was standing with his hands in his hands and looking at them with a smile, and next to the man stood a woman in professional clothes and glasses.
Needless to say, this middle-aged man is the ruler of the entire Vault and the strongest man: Rhodes, the King of the Earth!
Han Lin looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, who was about 50 years old, with a Chinese face, two lying silkworm eyebrows, short black hair mixed with a little silver thread, a few wrinkles left on his forehead after years of washing, a pair of eyes sparkling with brilliance, and a dignified and stable appearance.
A muscular body of muscles props up the black combat suit high, and there is no doubt about the immense power contained in it.
Rhodes was about 2 meters tall, a head taller than Han Lin, and he was bowing his head slightly at the moment, smiling and looking back at him like a kind elder.
Although Rhodes is in power and is the number one master of the Vault, he has a sense of approachability.
"The two are the awakened Han Lin and Liu Jie who want to join the shelter."
Rhodes opened his mouth and said to Han Lin and the others, his voice was deep and powerful, making people involuntarily feel that this person was trustworthy.
"Along the way, I believe the two of you have also seen that this world has collapsed, and it is difficult for the human race to continue, and only by uniting as one can we survive in this last world."
"I established Dawn because I wanted to use the power I had at my disposal to shelter the survivors and give them a chance to survive."
"Here, everyone is equal, and everyone has to contribute to the development of the shelter in exchange for corresponding materials. This is true for ordinary people, and it is also true for the awakened. ”
"When you two join Dawn, I won't use my privilege to help you fight for anything, and you can work hard for what you want. But I promise that this will be your back, and it will be your home! ”
Liu Jie listened to Rod's words, nodded excitedly, and Han Lin also smiled dumbly when he saw Liu Jie's performance, and then nodded in agreement.
Because, he heard sincerity in Rod's words.
"Okay, welcome to Dawn! We'll be a family from now on. ”
Rod said with a smile.
