Chapter 16: Serendipity
Tang Zhan followed behind the other martial artists, lined up for inspection, and those who entered the military administration area would be interrogated, and without a clear reason, or without the permission of the martial arts hall, the warriors could not even enter the military administration area.
When it was Tang Zhan's turn, the two soldiers who were checking were stunned at the same time, and looked at Tang Zhan in surprise, Tang Zhan's expression was not as heavy as the previous warriors, and he was too young.
It wasn't until Tang Zhan revealed the communicator in his hand that the two soldiers were in awe, and they were not respecting Tang Zhan, but the identity of the martial arts hall.
Tang Zhan didn't know that this communicator was not only a general equipment equipped by the high-level of the martial arts hall, it was also the identity certificate of the martial arts hall personnel, and it also had a pivotal position in the martial arts hall.
The two soldiers took out something similar to a scanner, covered it on the communicator, and after a tick, one of them said: "Tang Zhan, a member of the Ninth District Martial Arts Hall, is allowed to enter." ”
The two soldiers turned pale, gave up their positions, and gave a military salute to Tang Zhan, which made Tang Zhan even more confused.
He has never been in contact with soldiers, but in the database of the martial arts communicator, he has also consulted a lot of literature, in the process of fighting against mutant beasts, martial artists have made great contributions, but in the same way, there are more ordinary soldiers, always fighting on the periphery of the base city.
On the bright side, the Federation has entered an era of peace, and humans and mutant beasts are in a stalemate stage, but in fact, stalemate is another way of saying that they attack each other, and every year for the sake of peace within the base city, a large number of ordinary soldiers will always fall on the front line of the battle.
Tang Zhan had a special affection for the soldiers, and it was difficult not to admire them, and after reading a lot of literature, he really understood what kind of hatred there was between humans and mutant beasts.
There is no possibility of peaceful coexistence, and only when one side is completely crushed will this war that has lasted for more than 2,000 years truly end.
He glanced at the two soldiers with respect, and stepped into the military area, at this time the sky was still dark, and he would enter the wasteland at least after dawn.
Following the flow of warriors aimlessly, the voice in his ears slowly became noisy, without the order just now, as if he had suddenly walked into the city from the silent and dark forest.
The front is brightly lit, this is a very special area in the military district, a gathering place for free warriors, a place for drunken dreams and death.
Free Zone, Tang Zhan has seen the information in the database, here are many free warriors, and it is also the place with the most no moral bottom line, dragons and snakes are mixed, there is no order at all, here, there is no federal military police to maintain law and order, it has its own rules, and the strong are respected.
The Federation has been established for 2,000 years, not all warriors belong to the jurisdiction of the Federation, some of them are free and loose, undisciplined, except when the Federation issues a conscription order, they will come forward to fight for all mankind, most of the time they are not subject to the jurisdiction of the Federation, so they are also called free warriors.
In textbooks, the description of free warriors is synonymous with a group of barbarians, who are brutal and irritable, vulgar, and useless except for a good body of strength.
Tang Zhan walked on the streets, everything in the free zone, and he was full of curiosity about what he said about living in a comfortable environment since he was a child. There are female warriors who are scantily dressed, soliciting customers on the street, there are strong men with long beards, and there are thugs who collect protection money, and everything he sees now is simply impossible in the base city.
was staring at the forward route of the beard, suddenly, Tang Zhan's face changed, in such a place, he didn't expect to meet an acquaintance, a shirtless young man in his twenties, with a resolute face, shouting loudly in front of the stall, selling the items on the stall.
"Brother Yan?Huang Yan?" Tang Zhan was stunned for a moment, "Why is he here?"
Just when Tang Zhan wanted to step forward, the beard also happened to walk to Huang Yan's stall, Huang Yan smiled on his face, trotted, came to the beard, said haha, and said: "Brothers, the little brother has just arrived, and the little meaning is not respectful!" As he spoke, Huang Yan handed some thin round metal pieces in his hand to the beard.
Tang Zhan knew that this piece of metal was called free coin, which was a special currency in the free trading area, and the purchasing power of each of them was quite good in this market
", what about you kid calling Hanako?" The bearded man glanced at the silver coin, but instead of putting it away, he immediately shouted and pushed it towards Huangyan.
Tang Zhan's body moved, intending to step forward to help, no matter what, when he needed help the most, it was Huang Yan who pointed out a clear path, even if this road was ultimately abolished at the cost of being completely abolished, it was undeniable that without Huang Yan's help, his father would not have been able to support it until now.
However, he had just taken a step, and immediately stopped again, and Huang Yan, who was originally smiling, instantly turned cold on his face.
"Don't give it to the face, then you can die!" Huang Yan let out a low sigh, one arm was like a phantom, and he raised his hand to cut at the throat of the beard, and the speed was so fast that it disappeared in a flash.
The beard was originally not weak, but because of the suddenness of the incident, he didn't expect Huang Yan to suddenly turn his face, and after being hit, his eyes suddenly widened, and his face slowly fell down unwillingly.
The people around screamed loudly, but they didn't expect a burly young man to kill the bearded man in public.
The thugs brought by the bearded man, after being stunned, quickly bullied Huang Yan, and the strength he showed was that each of them reached the level of a middle-level samurai.
Huang Yan's eyes showed a cold mockery, and he moved instantly, as if countless people shot at the same time, and almost in an instant, the thugs fell to the ground one after another, moaning in pain.
Tang Zhan watched all this from afar, before that, he would never have imagined that Huang Yan, who was only a powerful martial artist, had the impression that his own strength had reached this point, a beginner martial artist, this was really unimaginable.
Even if he knew that once the students of the Federation entered the university and began to practice other exercises other than the Xuanyuan Jue, the growth of strength would enter the first explosive period, and all the previous accumulation would be transformed into realm strength in a short period of time.
At this time, seeing Huang Yan's junior martial artist strength, although he was surprised, he was not shocked.
When all the people brought by the beard were lying on the ground, Huang Yan unhurriedly cleaned up his stall, obviously not planning to continue to set up the stall.
"The dragon has fallen down this time, who is not good to provoke, he actually provoked this evil star, this guy has only been here for seven or eight days, and he has already killed a lot of people. The discussion of passers-by reached Tang Zhan's ears, but he was not in a hurry to meet him.
"But isn't it! Changxing Gang lost the Baron this time, and I'm afraid this territory can't be saved!" someone chimed in.
Immediately, some people raised different opinions and retorted: "That's not necessarily, don't forget, the two extreme martial artists of the Changxing Gang are definitely a powerful force in this territory." ”
Tang Zhan had heard of the Extreme Martial Master, originally the peak of the Martial Master was the Martial Sect, but there were also some Martial Artists who reached the peak, for various reasons, there was no possibility of breaking through in their lives, but they were still insisting on cultivating, and their strength was far above the Martial Masters, but they could not be compared with the Martial Sect, such people were called Extreme Martial Artists.
Most of these people give up on themselves, with the attitude of living one day at a time, so they are the most ferocious in battle, "Huang Yan provoked such a character, it seems that it is not a small trouble." Tang Zhan thought to himself.
He thought of Huang Yan's ruthlessness just now, I am afraid that he already knew who the other party was, and he had no intention of being afraid. In a trance, Tang Zhan had a new understanding of the word warrior, and he also had another feeling about the free zone and the wasteland.
Tang Zhan has experienced a lot of difficulties, but for warriors, he actually still grew up in a greenhouse and has never experienced life and death, which is also the general view of martial artists who have been fighting in the wasteland all year round about the martial artists of the Federation.
Even if you go through actual combat class training, in the battle of life and death at every turn, it is not even a small fight.
The Federation Warriors look at the Free Warriors as savage thugs, and the Liberty Warriors look at the Federation Warriors like flowers in a greenhouse.
"Hey, Brother Tang, I didn't expect to see you here!" Tang Zhan was stunned, carrying a large package of Huang Yan on his shoulder, he had already spotted him, and greeted him loudly.
Huang Yan's eyes showed strong curiosity, as the person who handled Tang Zhan Yuanzhu, no one knew Tang Zhan's situation better than him, however, since he met here, then there was only one possibility, Tang Zhan didn't know why, he still retained his identity as a martial artist, and he was not completely abolished.
"Seeing each other is fate, let's go, my brother will take you to drink, I know this place well!" Huang Yan did not ask about Tang Zhan's situation.
In Huang Yan's heart, Tang Zhan condensed Yuanzhu with the realm of martial apprentices, and definitely belonged to the ranks of geniuses, condensing Yuanzhu without completely abolishing it, which was even more opportune, and Tang Zhan was more worthy of appreciation for his father's self-cultivation, although it was for his relatives, but not everyone could do it.
Huang Yan naturally put his arm around Tang Zhan's shoulders, not allowing him to refuse, and left with Tang Zhan half-dragging and half-dragging.
When the two of them came to a seven-story hotel, Huang Yan let go of Tang Zhan and said, "Are you planning to enter the wasteland area?"
"Yes!" Tang Zhan nodded, there was no need to hide it.
Huang Yan showed a look of envy and yearning, but it disappeared in a flash, and he shouted boldly: "Oh! That's right, I have an acquaintance here, and introducing you to join their team is definitely much better than you going in alone, at least the safety is guaranteed." ”
Tang Zhan wanted to refuse, but he thought that Huang Yan had a good intention after all, so he barely held back and didn't speak, and then his arm tightened, and he was already pulled by Huang Yan and walked towards the door of the hotel.
"Let's see it, as for whether to join or not, let's talk about it then!" Tang Zhan moved under his feet, thinking to himself.
There is no day or night in freedom, all shops are open all day, and for a free warrior who doesn't know the next moment, who wants to waste a good time sleeping.
Entering the hotel, Huang Yan grabbed a service staff and asked, "Is Tianhuo there?" ”
The service staff wanted to get angry, but when they heard Tianhuo's name, they immediately became angry and asked tentatively, "Are you a friend of Brother Huo?"
"There's a lot of nonsense in the kid, yes, I'm here to find Tianhuo, but I'm not his friend, but his brother!"
"Oh, Brother Huo's brother!" The service staff showed a flattering smile: "Then you came just in time, Brother Huo is in the box on the seventh floor!"
