Chapter 16: Sudden Enemy Attack
There are several ways for oasis residents to get housing.
The first is commercial housing, such as because there is no currency in the wilderness, so it can only be bartered, and the city lord will list a series of shortage materials, such as food, weapons, vehicles, etc., and some wealthy wilderness merchants or mercenaries can directly exchange them.
The second type is the merit room, which can be counted as merit for any contribution to the oasis, from fighting for the oasis to being a volunteer scavenger, all are seen as a method of accumulating merit, and as long as a certain number is reached, housing can be obtained for free.
The third is special housing, which is a special situation in which you don't need to pay anything to get a house, but only if you have a good enough skill, such as being particularly able to fight or being an outstanding wilderness scientist, etc., these situations can be free of charge.
Copperskin: An ordinary soldier who has just joined the army.
He was by no means the best in the army, and he didn't have time to build any credit, and he was a mutant who was poor and barely able to make ends meet, so when faced with these tall, sturdy and electrified houses, he was only full of envy.
What I never expected.
He actually got a house.
When this surprise falls from the sky, Tongpi wonders if he is dreaming, no matter how you look at it, he is not eligible to get a house. When he learned about it, he realized that the house was not for him, thanks to his son Iron Nail.
Ironclad was found to have a special talent at Oasis Academy.
Therefore, it is classified as a third group of people, so they can get a house for free.
When Tongpi got the key, his hands couldn't help but tremble, he never thought that this kind of good thing would befall him, he hurriedly took his son to his wife who worked on the edge of the city, Hua Yan is now working as a laborer in a newly built steel mill, and at the moment he is carrying more than 200 catties of steel, which is used to repair the railway.
Hua Yan was also in disbelief after knowing the good news.
It's hard for her to imagine how her son, who has always been ordinary, has been valued and turned into a special talent?
The manager of the steelmaking factory was a soldier of the Condor Corps, and when he learned about the family's situation, he gave Hua Yan a day off to let her move, and the two immediately packed up their things happily and came to their new home with their son Iron Nail.
The residential quarters were guarded by warriors.
Verify your identity before you can enter.
The Copperskin family was very satisfied with this, because in the wilderness, the most worrying thing was safety, but the city lord had never deployed guards and mobile patrols for the residential area, which undoubtedly ensured safety, which was unmatched by any wilderness city.
From this, you can also see the ambition of the city lord.
If the castle lord can create a safe and comfortable living environment, many warriors or scientists who wander in the wilderness will be attracted to it, and then the oasis will be replenished with a large number of talents.
The three of them began to walk up the stairs.
"Iron nails!" At this time, a voice sounded: "Why are you only here now! I have been waiting for you for a long time!"
A little girl with a pink carving looking full of aura was standing on the top of the stairs with her hands crossed, looking at the three of them with a pair of blue eyes.
Neither Tongpi nor Hua Yan knew this little girl.
Tongpi can feel that this little girl is definitely not simple, although it is not as high as her thighs, but it gives her a sense of danger, and Tongpi even feels that if she moves, she is not necessarily the opponent of this little girl.
Seeing the other party, Tie Ding hurriedly said respectfully, "Squad leader?"
Lan is the squad leader of the Demon Hunter Special Training Class, don't look at her so small, in fact, she is already quite powerful, the iron nail training has been done with her, and every time she is beaten by the blue to find teeth, but it really makes the iron nail afraid of gains and losses, I heard that the background of this squad leader is not simple, she seems to be the registered apprentice of the city lord.
"I'll help you get something. Lan walked over and greeted Tongpi and Hua Yan very politely, and then helped to pick up a salute that was two big for her: "Now I live on the fifth floor with Instructor Lingyueyun!
Ironclad was shocked: "The instructor also lives here?"
"That's right, there is an uncle named Feipeng who lives next door to me, he is a very powerful master, you will have to ask him for more advice when you seize the opportunity in the future, do you know?" Lan introduced while helping to carry things: "Uncle Iwakawa lives on the fourth floor, his martial arts are very strong, you can also learn more." ”
Tongpi and Hua Yan were dumbfounded.
The little girl had heard of a few characters, all of whom had heard of them, and they had never dreamed that these powerful men would not live in the castle, but would come out to live with them, the lowly wilderness people.
"It's here!" Lan walked to the third floor and pushed open a stone door, "This is your house!"
The new home is very simple, there is not nothing in it, the stone tables, stone benches, stone beds are ready-made, there is a special kitchen and toilet, and most importantly, there is electricity inside.
Blue tugged at the rope.
The lights came on.
The two of them have a dreamlike feeling in the face of all this.
At this time, the next door heard the movement and walked out, at least four families lived on each floor, on the left lived a wilderness man with a child, his child was also a classmate of the iron nail, on the right lived an old man who was said to work in the laboratory, and on the opposite side lived a few soldiers of the Condor Corps.
They all got to know each other.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have believed that mutants, scientists, and godly people would actually live in one place, and if it was spread out, it would definitely make people's jaws drop.
Lan was very enthusiastic to help Tie Nail clean up his new home, and finally told Tie Nail's family before parting: "You have to remember, if you need help, you can always talk to everyone, but don't go to the residential area to have conflicts with people, the management here is very strict, and all violations will be punished heavily!"
Tongpi's family of three nodded again and again.
After Lan finished speaking, he left satisfied.
That night, the family of three moved into a new home.
This is the first time they feel the beauty of life, who doesn't like this kind of clean and odorless place, and who likes the feeling of being bitten by mosquitoes, centipedes, and spiders all night? The most important thing is a sense of security!
The Tongpi family feels a sense of security like never before!
Not only do there be fixed guards and patrol squads in each residential area, but each tower is inhabited by people from the Divine Domain and wilderness, especially the one where they live, there are Lingyueyun, Feipeng, and Iwakawa, so many powerful big people are here, what thing that doesn't know how to live or die dares to make trouble here?
For the first time, the Tongpi family of three felt a sense of belonging here.
The mutant couple was even more encouraged.
They have confidence in the oasis.
So they all made up their minds to work hard.
The next day, Hua Yan continued to work in the steel mill, Tie Nail went to the academy to practice, and Tongpi came to the barracks, and the news that he got the house had spread in the barracks, and other wilderness people came to inquire about the situation.
When they heard Copperskin's description, their eyes lit up, and their morale suddenly soared, and Copperskin was full of pride, and the others hardly got housing, and he became one of the first members of the army to get a house.
Life in the barracks is very simple, do two things every day, either train with the warriors of the Divine Domain, or be pulled out to patrol the neighborhood, or deal with the beasts that break into the living area with two ends, this life is also very easy.
After eating at noon.
The captain suddenly combined everyone.
This time, it was said that there was a special patrol mission.
He didn't make his words clear, and immediately pulled Tongpi and the others to the edge of Oasis City, where there was a large clearing that had just been cleared, and in the middle of this clearing stood a blue and white mushroom tree more than twenty meters high.
Tongpi is not surprised by this strange plant, because recently there are more and more places in the oasis, they look like large mushrooms, but in fact they are very tough, and it is difficult to cut with a knife, so they can grow very tall.
Today's strains seem a little different.
Several plants are surrounded by dense white mushroom bushes.
The task of Tongpi and the others is to guard a few large mushrooms to avoid being harassed or destroyed by wild beasts, and there is a very important requirement, they are absolutely not allowed to approach these big mushrooms, and they can only be honestly guarded nearby.
What a strange request!
Copperskin didn't care too much because he didn't know why, although he hadn't been in the training for long, but they already knew that the most important thing as a soldier was to carry out orders and not ask why, so they and his teammates honestly distributed in the woods to guard.
Several groups of wilderness scientists came over one after another.
They pointed at the big mushrooms.
By the way, write down some notes.
Tongpi was puzzled that the wilderness scientists didn't get close to the big mushrooms, they just used tools to water fertilizer remotely, and buckets of fertilizer mixed with black fragments were poured up, and the big mushrooms grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When leaving, he used his tools to pick some small mushrooms.
A small mushroom bush was gouged up, and another grew in the blink of an eye.
Dusk is approaching, and the handover time is approaching, Tongpi and the others feel a little relaxed, chatting with each sentence, but at this time, it seems to feel a sense of danger.
"Ahh
He heard it clearly.
A scream rang out from the woods.
It was sent by a companion!
Tongpi's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly clenched his battle axe, "It seems that there is a situation!"
The rest of the soldiers hurried to be on guard, but before they could see clearly, several bullets were fired out of the woods, and they were shot over the spot.
"Not a wild beast!"
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
"Copperskin, go back and report the news!"
The squad leader shouted.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a transparent silhouette came out of the woods, and the moment this transparent man passed by the captain's side, a short knife cut off his head directly.
Seeing this, Tongpi was so frightened that he didn't even want to turn around and run, although he didn't know what was going on, but that person could get close to the captain stealthily, and he could easily cut off the captain's head, which was definitely not something he could deal with.
That kind of ability is very similar to the city lord and others!
This is definitely no ordinary wilderness man!
