A black wall approached like a mountain, cold and unforgiving, the interstate was no longer dry and cracked, but purposefully maintained, several workers with silver and white diamond insignia were filling a crater, and although there were only two armed guards, the increasingly dense flow of refugees would rather fight each other in the queue than get close to the steel city personnel.

The queue of refugees of several hundred meters occupies only four lanes, and the first checkcard has been set up under a street sign that reads "One thousand meters to the north, Steel City", and the machine-gun bunkers have already deterred all those with bad intentions in advance.

Before Simon could enter the checkpoint, a convoy of armored vehicles heading out of the city shook the Black Avenue like a thunderbolt, shaking Simon's eardrums for several minutes. "It's really slow." Adolfina said disdainfully, and it was self-evident that the convoy was heading there.

"Leave it to me, it's enough to be stupid once!" Adolfina poked Simon in the chest and warned.

The checkcard megaphone then roared: "Jeep! Come here! That's you! Seeing Simon coming slowly, several heavily armed soldiers ran out of the bunker and set up anti-armor rocket launchers, but before they could forcibly tear Simon off, the soldiers suddenly froze in place as if struck by lightning.

"Do I have flowers on my face?" Adolfina put her two jade legs out of the window, took out a handful of sunflower seeds in her small bag, knocked them up on her own, and Pier spit directly at the soldier's neckline. "Do you want it?" Simon just wanted to take it, but Adolfina pulled back. "Oh, you only eat what you earn."

Simon retracted his paws in a curt, "Since I don't have flowers on my face, what are you staring at the old lady?" Get out of here! Tell that idiot MacDonald to hurry up and raise the railing! Seeing that the soldiers were returning the same way in a rather disgraced manner, Adolfina shook her palms proudly and said, "Eat, don't put a stinky face on the old lady in the future, if I want to, I won't be enough to beat you with one hand!" ”

The railing of the highway was raised, and at the entrance of the bunker stood a soldier with a scar diagonally across his face, and Adolfina raised her middle finger and sneered, "Yo! Mcdonald! It's almost three winters, and you're still guarding the door! Croning's side has been recruiting goalkeepers! I think you're a good fit to apply for after you retire! Adolfina made a baseball toss gesture and a loud whistle.

The GI obviously dared to be angry, so he had to sprinkle his anger on Simon's head, and MacDonald made a thumbs down movement: "Malfin's male pets! Good luck with you every night! ”

"Bye-bye!" Adolfina didn't listen, took off her goggles and shook them. "Huh~" The little sister sat back in her seat and found that a man and a boy looked a little unkind, she shrugged her shoulders and said, "You have to take it seriously, what can I do?" But ......"

Adolfina rubbed into Simon's arms, given that he was driving, Simon had to block this crazy woman who had known less than a week with one hand, but Adolfina suddenly had amazing strength, and the end of struggling to resist was that her right hand hit the car door like a meteor hammer and bounced back, the red-haired girl found a comfortable place, and snorted lazily: "But ...... I've said a long time ago that you're my private property, so McDonald's idiot's words to remove the 'we' are valid. ”

With a femme fatale lying in his arms, Simon set his eyes on the refugees waiting to enter the city one by one, and the emotions in contrast to them, envy, jealousy, hatred, eagerness, eagerness...... There are many things, but the lack of goodwill, Simon suddenly understood the meaning of the four lanes: two lanes of steel city for personal use, one for the refugees to be audited, and one for the refugees with high assets, obviously, Simon is the third type of refugee, two vehicles with fuel, so the value is much higher.

"What, stupid again?" Red hair wrapped around her index finger, Adolfina looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, but Peter killed countless people at the age of fifteen, and he couldn't tell why he did it, and the crisis in his eyes? Windbreaker? There is always some benefit to the first to do it.

"So, you're making an inconsequential bet with me?" As the day progressed towards noon, the refugee queue extended to the checkpoint, at which point several flares were lifted into the air, the bunker machine guns fired a few shuttles, and the loudspeaker shouted: "Today's audit is full!" ! Bugs! Remember to be early tomorrow! ”

"Yes." Simon replied, and Adolfina sat on Simon's waist in a different position, snapped her fingers at the refugee queue, and said, "You! You! Don't look east and west! It's you! A half-grown boy turned blue from being pushed by the crowd.

"Twenty dollars!" Adolfina flicked two one-dollar coins with her thumb, and the boy caught them firmly. "In a month, if you come to the Glatheham Tavern and ask the bartender for the 'White Rose', I'll give you two hundred dollars!"

Adolfina shrank back without even looking at the boy's expression, continued to lie in Simon's arms, and said comfortably: "Look, I'm still quite charitable, now let's raise the bet?" ”

"What is the Gletham Tavern?" Simon asked, and the boy who got twenty dollars in the rearview mirror carried a modified Winchester 1897 on his shoulder, which was as tall as the others, and kept the windfall.

Adolfina knocked the melon seeds and said casually: "An ordinary one among the countless steel city taverns, after a month, if the two hundred yuan I stored in the tavern are not taken, then you owe me a wish" Simon's long beard was pulled by Adolfina. "Otherwise, I owe you a wish."

Peter frowned and said, "Dude, you have to eat this if you don't eat it." ”

"Black Wall?" Simon avoided talking about it, and through a thin layer of solidified molten steel, he could vaguely see the rudiments of countless barricade vessels inside, like a city wall several meters high that was poured down from a furnace of molten steel. Long-term weathering and rust bring indisputable darkness, perhaps this wall is not known for defense, it kills people's hearts.

Considering that the gambling contract would automatically take effect, Adolfina pulled out and sat down, her expression serious: "The black wall is in the steel city, this is the outer city wall, remember, it is the outer city wall." ”

With the gate checkcard close at hand, and several vehicles of varying quality being reviewed, Adolfina swept Simon, Peter, and Jonathan in turn, and said, "Don't play tricks in front of the auditors, do whatever they tell you to do." ”

"Don't resist!"

There are about thirty soldiers equipped with exoskeletons next to the auditor, and a water of pre-war M6 rifles! Simon's knuckles were slightly white, and his instinct told him that perhaps in the city, he could find some answers to the day of judgment.

"The power output is good, the main components are up to standard, the spare parts are sufficient, and the audit results are qualified." An explorer with a spike fence laid along the contours of the body circles around the detection platform, and the wasteland vehicles either follow the sturdy and durable vehicles of the pre-war period, or disassemble the parts and assemble them themselves.

The soldiers escorted the awaiting scrutiny to stand as if they were about to be executed. "Name?" There were thirteen examiners sitting at a long table, and the silver-haired old man in the center closed his eyes and recuperated, if he didn't deliberately look around, the fresh air was so indifferent that it was difficult to find, and the questioner was the youngest person in the corner of the long table. It was also relatively young, and this person's sideburns were still frosty white.

"Tom Hardy." The leather jacket had a chain of fingerbones, and the door of the head was blackened with oil, the reviewer replied.

"Age?"

"Thirty-six."

"After testing, medium-term radiation disease, strong physique, good working ability, no infectious diseases, no xing disease, and no hereditary mental illness?"

"Nope."

"Good." After the examiner filled out the form and put it in the suitcase, the silver-haired old man opened his eyes slightly and signed the document. "Tom Hardy, you have been granted a one-year residence permit in the Steel City, during which time a violation of the law is punishable by a minimum detention, a maximum expulsion or the death penalty, depending on the seriousness of the law, and an option to renew the residence permit for five years if you have behaved well. ”

The reviewer knelt down on one side of the millstone-shaped black iron, and the other reviewer looked down at Tom Hardy condescendingly, and said indifferently, "Follow me." ”

"The universal and capable gather in our country, and since they are protected by the black wall and blessed by steel, they should abide by the law and righteousness, and use their blood, sweat and tears to build my frontier far and wide, but when danger comes, they will display it in front of them, defend my glory and glory, and as for what I oath, I will do what I want."

"Get up, resident." The examiner personally helped up a new resident of Steel City, and remained indifferent: "Please enter the city for a while, and when the specified number is reached, the residence will be designated uniformly, and if there is a place to go, you can leave, but this examiner must remind you that once the homeless people are found three times, they will be expelled immediately." ”

The Pathfinder rumbled into the city, but the Inquisitor stopped the soldier as he was about to start the vehicle's performance test, saying, "Control this person." ”

As soon as the words fell, the exoskeleton soldier directly forced the owner of the broken car to kneel down with one kick at a time, and the fourth from the left of the long table of the auditor questioned: "You and other thieves, use this to make up the number indiscriminately, and expel this way!" ”

The owner of the broken car shouted frantically: "I have a car!" I have a car! The soldier flipped the switch, and the test bench immediately turned into a crushing field, crushing a broken car that was obviously specially designed to deal with the hastily modified by the auditor, and the auditor said: "You don't have it now." The soldier then beat him with an iron fist and ordered: "Bugs! Get where you need to go! ”

"Next group!" The soldier guided Simon to stop slowly, and Adolfina took off all of Simon's weapons in advance, including the boot knife, and said, "Do you remember what I taught you?" Seeing Simon's head, Adolfina jumped out of the car door, but instead of entering the city through the audit passage, she turned back.

"Arrest three!" The examiner ordered sharply, as Adolfina expected, Simon and the others were driving crusader jeeps, and the thirteen censors representing the Thirteen Councils were all heroes, how could they be blind? Simon forced himself to his knees, his arms locked behind him, completely handing his fate into the hands of men.
