Chapter 415: Grady
The Resistance Headquarters is the general name for this area, which is composed of many independent buildings, the most conspicuous of which is probably the Headquarters, which is located at the heart of the Headquarters area, surrounded by other buildings like stars and moons.
At the front was a Resistance soldier, followed by Gao Xiang, the captain of the resident patrol, and behind Gao Xiang, two people, Xiao Worm and Turtle Dove, followed unhurriedly, and the four of them lined up in a straight line and slowly advanced towards the headquarters.
Along the way, many of the Resistance fighters cast their eyes on this side, and they had all heard the rumors that the one walking behind Gao Xiang was "Little Worm", although most people had never seen Little Worm before, as soon as they heard others talk about Little Worm's father, they would immediately look at Little Worm again with a disgusted gaze.
Some of them have a big temper, and they will even take a sip on the ground, or whisper a few words from afar.
The little worm deliberately and easily ignored those people, but the turtledove had no way to be like her, clenching his fists angrily, but the turtledove was not good at showing too obviously, after all, this is the territory of the resistance army, and he and the little worm are from the outside, just as the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the ground snake, in front of the resistance army, what kind of strong dragon is he and the little worm, at most two caterpillars.
The turtledove still knew something, so he held back his breath.
Due to the influence of the "attention salute" of many Resistance soldiers, this section of the road is not too long, which makes Turtledove feel that it has been such a long walk, but fortunately, he has finally come to the end, and the Resistance headquarters is in front of him.
I don't know if it's his own delusion, the turtledove vaguely feels that since he came to the oasis, the little insect always seems to have deliberately kept a certain distance from him, not too far, but not as close as he used to be on the road.
Not to mention anything else, the words of the worm have indeed become fewer, and the turtledove itself belongs to the type of person who "realizes it later", but the silence of the worm is still captured by him, maybe it is not that he has become more emotional, but that the worm deliberately makes him feel it.
"What's going on in this girl's head?" ββThe turtledove was eager to ask the worm this question.
β¦β¦
"Please come in."
Stopped at the door of the headquarters, the resistance fighters who led the way made a "please" gesture to the three people behind him, Gao Xiang nodded at him, and then walked into the headquarters, the worm followed, the turtledove looked around, and the last one walked in.
The command of the Resistance is not a big deal.
From the outside, it looks like an ordinary three-story building, and this kind of building, which Ikaruga has seen a lot in other places in the oasis, is nothing special in this regard. The interior decoration is quite characteristic, and the word "simple" is everywhere, and it seems that it is not for nothing that the Resistance is very popular among the residents of the oasis.
Calvin in Candy City was extremely poor and luxurious, and he also used a lot of clean water to make an artificial swimming pool in his mansion, which made the whole Candy City complain, and when Calvin fell, there was no Candy City resident who did not applaud.
It was not the first time Gao Xiang had seen the leader of the resistance, so he knew very well what to do next, and went directly to the second time, Gao Xiang led the little worm and the turtledove to the door of a room, and after gently knocking on the door, Gao Xiang also took the opportunity to tidy up his clothes.
"Come in."
A bell-like sound came from the room.
On the left side of the door is a wooden bookshelf with a variety of books, and on the right is a collection of flowers and plants that have been carefully cared for. In the center is a desk, behind which stands an old man with gray sideburns.
His hair was a little messy, but it had a free and easy air that did not fit his age, and even the beard of his sideburns was as white as his hair, except for the thick and heavy eyebrows that were still pure black.
Underneath his dark leather jacket was a dark green shirt and a pair of trousers of the same color as the shirt, probably out of long-standing habit, and two holsters on the belt around his waist, although they did not contain guns inside.
This is the leader of the Resistance, Grady.
β¦β¦
Grady was one of the best figures in Freedom Wings long before Bug's father joined Freedom Wings, and when Freedom Wings split in two, Grady led a group of them to the Oasis at the end of the Lawless Lands and established a resistance there.
Upon arrival at the Oasis, these "conservatives" who had splintered from the wings of freedom faced many difficulties, most notably the problem of supplies.
The land near the oasis was so barren that there wasn't much food to grow, so when Grady and the others came here, it was still a ruin, and only a few locals lived here, and they were all here and there, and there was no real settlement.
In order to give everyone a goal, Grady decided to form the "Resistance", which was especially needed in such a difficult time.
After the formation of the Resistance, Grady ordered the renovation of the ruins of the city, the rebuilding of a city, and the reclamation of land on the periphery of the oasis, the expansion of arable land, among other other initiatives, which soon gave the oasis a new look.
Over the years, the Resistance has grown under Grady and has emerged from its initial predicament, not only with a large amount of arable land and food stocks, but also as a result of attracting many of the villages and towns that had previously lived in the vicinity to move into the city.
The strength of the Resistance Army is getting stronger and stronger, and it seems to have become one of the few forces in the Extralegal Land, that is, they don't want to cause trouble, otherwise looking at the entire Extralegal Territory, there are not many forces that can compete with the Resistance Army now, and if the Resistance wants to further expand its sphere of influence, there is no way for the few forces close to here anyway.
β¦β¦
"Oh, you're a little worm, I didn't expect it to grow so big in a blink of an eye."
Glady was surprised to see the worm, which was a bit beyond the turtledove's expectations, he thought that this Grady would not like the worm at all like the rest of the Resistance.
The worm didn't speak, she didn't have any impression of Grady, so seeing that the other party was greeting her, the worm didn't know how to respond.
"Who is this?"
Grady saw that the worm didn't speak, and he didn't care much, so he took his eyes off the worm and landed on the turtledove behind him.
"He's the bodyguard I hired, and sending me here is the completion of the mission." - That's how the worm answered Grady's question.
