The capital of the oasis is much safer than the border city, and at least you don't have to worry about walking through the streets of the capital and suddenly having your head covered in a sack and waking up to find that you have been sent to a den of human traffickers.

Although the Allies did not have the concept of a core city, most of the Oasis' troops were stationed there, and it was also a gathering place for the Oasis' high society.

By the time the hovercar drove into this beautiful city called Lira, it was already dawn.

The rise and fall of high-rise buildings and the greenery as far as the eye can see, make this place more modern society.

Song Lan loves this city very much.

Because the Lira adopts a temperature control system, the temperature of the whole city tends to be stable all year round, and the temperature control of the hovercar shows that it is 20 degrees outside, which is the climate suitable for tourism.

He prefers highly urbanized areas to endless deserts.

William and the Dead Man's Lotto crew had a rare night's sleep, and for the first time since arriving at Oasis, they were able to sleep soundly.

As soon as they woke up, the program team set up equipment and filmed the street scene of the lira through the window of the hovering car.

They couldn't help but sigh that this place and Rute were like two worlds.

The people of the oasis high society concentrated their wealth and technology here, leaving the periphery with poverty and drought.

During the filming, William compiled anecdotes he had heard from the locals of Root.

Poverty has always tormented the people of Root, and the border city has a weak sense of law, and only 100 watts is enough for many people to embark on the road of murder and kidnapping.

This is what the Skeletons and Brotherhood are all about.

In William's view, this seems to be an important reason for the failure of the Oasis's first siege of the Brotherhood, as they saw the crime rate rise and the Brotherhood's power gradually spread throughout the country, but it was never able to solve the country's real problem - poverty.

"But now it doesn't seem like they're that poor."

William has a bird's-eye view of the city.

The Lira is even better urbanized than the 17th arrondissement, and it seems that the coalition government has indeed given the country a lot of scientific and technological assistance, so that the people of the oasis high society can live a prosperous life.

It's business as usual in the city, and it seems that the gathering of the Brotherhood and the rebels has not changed much in the lives of the locals.

"The gap between the rich and the poor, the internal ......"

Before he could finish speaking, William felt someone's hand on his shoulder.

Song Lan didn't say anything, just pointed to the text on the memo on her mobile phone.

"Don't talk about politics."

Short and powerful.

Bad habits need to be corrected, William is his more optimistic journalist, and the swarm may need such talents, so after the trip to the oasis, he plans to introduce William and others to work in the garbage dump.

The Dead Man's Lotto crew has many years of experience as media workers, and is also well-known in the 17th district, but the more important reason is that they know too much.

Normally, it's hard for someone who knows so many secrets to see the sun the next day, but Song Lan isn't a devil after all, and he has always advocated solving problems through peaceful means.

"Understood, understood."

William nodded again and again, he had seen Song Lan's methods, and they had also witnessed the end of the person in charge.

The madman who called himself an artist, one of the rulers of the crime syndicate in the city of Root, was so silently reduced to ashes, not even a single wreck remained.

Before leaving the "garbage treatment plant", Song Lan destroyed all the surveillance footage, there was no sign of fighting in the huge treatment plant, and the entire criminal group died out silently.

However, William did not intend to delve into it, and the more he knew in these years, the faster he died.

This applies to every corner of the world.

They only need to establish one belief now - follow Song Lan and his friends, and their journey will be smooth sailing.

However, when the hovercar slowly landed, William felt that they still underestimated Song Lan.

The landing point is the back alley of the company, and just a cursory glance, he can see those heavily armed security guards, they are equipped with weapons no less than the expatriate department of the coalition government, and there is a "Sidewinder III. automatic combat mecha" standing at the entrance of the back alley.

The name they heard when they interviewed the Coalition Government's expatriate department.

Combat mechs were widely used in local wars at the end of the Gold Rush, and were the mainstay of the Coalition government's frontal battlefield, and one combat mech was equipped with enough firepower to annihilate a group of heavily armed mercenaries.

William did not expect that after many years, the equipment of the militants would also be updated and iterated to such a point.

Out of professional habits, he inevitably had doubts in his heart.

But just like the four-word warning that Song Lan showed him in the car before, there are some things that can't be thought about.

How did the Coalition Government's expatriate armaments end up in the hands of the Brotherhood?

This is not a secret that he should know as a program host.

Reason told him that he should now think about some more realistic questions, such as where they should hide as ordinary people who are helpless in a shootout for a while.

This location was revealed to them by the person in charge of the "garbage treatment plant" before he died, but William never expected that Song Lan did not take a disguise to lurk, nor did he wait until the dead of night when the defense force was the weakest to act, so he drove the hovercar into their encirclement in front of the members of the Brotherhood.

"You're not an orthopedic surgeon."

After the hovering car door opened, the man with a green scarf covering half of his face, and the man with a gun in his hand walked towards them, his eyes full of vigilance.

This is the car of the person in charge of the "garbage disposal plant", but it is not he who got out of it.

"I'm a cardiologist."

Song Lan took the initiative to greet the other party, and when she saw his friendly and familiar appearance, the members of the Brotherhood muttered instead.

But cardiologists?

Is there such a person in the organization?

"What about the 'orthopedic surgeon'? Where did he go? ”

"He couldn't come to the meeting because of his health, so I asked me to help him do it on his behalf."

"What about them?"

"They are the crew of Dead Man's Lotto, and the director wants them to come and see the world."

Director?

What is this strange name?

The Brotherhood members looked at each other, they had never heard of an "orthopedic surgeon" subordinate referring to him as director.

But the crew of "Dead Man's Lotto" has heard that they are the big celebrities in front of the "orthopedic doctor", not long ago the "garbage disposal plant" found them from a pile of goods waiting to be processed, and with the popularity of the "Dead Man's Lotto" program in the oasis, even many people in the Lira headquarters have become listeners of this program.

Each day, the death toll mentioned on the show gives them a real sense that the Brotherhood is the true master of the country.

"We have to ask our superiors."

"No need."

Another uninvited guest interrupted the conversation.

With the presence of several people, the atmosphere of the scene became more solemn, and William could not resist the impulse in his heart for a while, and he wanted to point the camera at the legend who walked towards them several times.

"Mouse".

The No. 2 figure in the Eschinweg Army also said that the rebel meeting was completed by "rats".

Today, the bounty of the legend from the 17th arrondissement has soared to 62 million watts.

Compared with the period of the 17th District, the "Mouse" looks much more mature and stable, and the wide uniform of the Eschenweig Army makes the "Mouse" look full of the aura of a villain at the moment.

Song Lan was very pleased.

This situation and this scene made him inexplicably have the illusion that the child who grew up with a handful of and urine has finally become a talent.

The white-haired woman walking behind him also had a noticeable change when they met him in prison.

Her beautiful face was not covered by a closed hood, her waist-length white hair swayed with the breeze, and with her arrival, the temperature in the back alley plummeted, and the originally mild wind had a chilling feeling.

"Ash, this is a real person, alive!"

One of the Dead Man's Lotto crew members had eyes popping out, and he kept muttering to himself.

In his suitcase, there is an Ash life-size pillow, bought for 750 watts, out of print, and now the price on the black market has been speculated to more than 10,000 watts.

The main reason for the out-of-print is that the manufacturer of the pillow has entered due to "reactionary" and "spreading bad thoughts", and with the experience of the past, it is estimated that no manufacturer will dare to produce pillows with the theme of resistance in the next ten years.

As an avid Ash fan, he even brought the pillow to the Oasis!

After the successful escape of the 17th District and the withdrawal of the 14th neutral nation from the Allied powers, Ash's bounty naturally rose to 51 million watts, and the crime of "subversion of the regime" was added to the charge that only the highest-level wanted criminals can enjoy.

However, Song Lan was not confused by Ash's beauty, and he noticed the difference in the other party at a glance - she did not wear a uniform, but a leather top and short skirt with silver and white as the main color.

This makes her stand out in the team, just like a junior high school student who goes to school without wearing a school uniform!

Coupled with that pair of over-the-knee boots, the eyes of the "Dead Man's Lotto" crew, including William, have been attracted to her.

Song Lan only felt that Lu Xiang's worries were not wrong, and when he arrived in Lira, the real danger of the oasis was revealed.

The female cadres of the rebels have appeared!

What's even more terrifying is that Ash deliberately threw a wink at him after noticing his presence.

If Lao Lu knew about this, I am afraid that the punishment would have to start in at least 1 hour.

This flattering eye still looks like a group injury skill, and Song Lan is unwavering as a righteous gentleman, but Ash's fans in the crew seem to be about to melt.

Fortunately, at this critical moment, "Rat" stepped forward and said to the members of the Brotherhood, "I know them, I'll go in with them." ”

Seeing that the dignitaries had spoken, the members of the Brotherhood made way for a few people.

The "mouse" found an opportunity to come to Song Lan's side, walked side by side with him, and asked in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, "How is Director Lu doing?" ”

He recognized Song Lan.

Although he didn't know much about the head of the propaganda section of the law enforcement department, his intuition told "Mouse" that Song Lan was by no means a simple character, and they had a lot in common - where there was danger, they were there, and Song Lan, like him, was able to live unharmed after experiencing countless dangers.

This made the "mouse" have to wonder if Song Lan had the same "miracle" as him.

The kind of energy that is intimately connected to the Void in the eyes of others.

If his conjecture is not wrong, then Lu Xiang is obviously the real mastermind behind the scenes.

On the surface, he is the head of the law enforcement department, but in fact he is the real controller of the void!

His efforts have already yielded initial results, and wherever the Eschenweg army goes, the "rats" will hype up Lu Xiang's actions as a law enforcer, so that the residents who have been kept in the dark will know the true face of Lu Xiang's Great Demon King, which is an unprecedented tyrant that mankind has encountered.

"Director Lu is fine, don't worry about her."

"That's good, that's good."

"Mouse" masked his careful thoughts.

Another benefit of hyping Lu Xiang is that his glorious story of successfully escaping from the 17th District has also been widely disseminated, and the cadres of the rebels are amazed at how he saved Ash from this tyrant, and everything they have been through can only be described as legendary.

During the conversation, everyone followed the Brotherhood Floor all the way up to the floor where the meeting was located.

Oasis Peace, Inc.

This is one of the Brotherhood's properties, ostensibly a real estate company, but the actual function is to build relationships with officials to get first-hand information at any time.

The appeal to the coalition government was also done at the behest of the Brotherhood.

The plea for help confirmed their suspicion that the coalition government was too busy to take care of itself, and it was already at the end of its power, and it no longer had the heart and energy to maintain "world peace".

When he entered the door, most of the guests had already come, all of them were ruthless characters who could only be seen on the wanted warrants in the bureau on weekdays, and Song Lan roughly estimated that wanted criminals with a bounty of less than eight figures were not embarrassed to enter this venue at all.

Seeing the "rat" in full swing, the other rebel cadres nodded to him.

In addition to the wanted criminals sitting in the room, there was some discordant picture ahead.

The naked male was chained into the cage, the black mask obscured his appearance, the male was burly, the height was probably more than 2.5 meters, and the space of the cage was too narrow, so that his body could only curl up together.

Song Lan noticed that it was not the cage or the chain that really restricted the man's movement, but the needle that pierced his body.

There were seven needles in total, and they were slowly pumping an unidentified ink-colored potion into the man's body.

"Be careful, everybody."

The "rat" was the last to arrive, and after everyone was seated, the fraternity researcher in a white coat began to speak, "Someone heard about the rally and wanted to disrupt the event. ”

With that, the researcher walked to the edge of the cage and identified the male, "Minions of the Barossa Group, they have infiltrated the lira." ”

Thanks to Dr. A for the 100 starting coins!

The small theater of its two hundred and sixty:

Monday, evening, month, year

The ninth slice of ginger went down, and Guan Lili's eyes couldn't help but ooze tears from the corners of her eyes.

Spicy is only one aspect, what makes her even more sad is that she didn't come all the way to the first district to suffer this kind of sin!

Aren't they good friends?

Why would anyone use ginger to entertain their friends?

Also, Does this plate of dry pot potato chips really have potatoes?

Guan Lili's heart was full of questions, this was the ninth time she had carefully looked at Lu Xiang - why could the other party accurately distinguish the difference between potatoes and ginger slices, and every time she seemed to have eaten potatoes?

"Give up, Lao Guan."

Song Lan, the onlookers, was a little unbearable and persuaded her.

In the field of torturing people, Lu Xiang is definitely a professional.

"No, I have one last chance!"

Lu Xiang's satisfied look aroused Guan Lili's gambler's heart, her eyes kept turning on the plate, and finally, she thought that she had found the mystery of this game, and confidently picked up the juicy and plump potato slices and bit them hard.

"Wow, there's no potato chips in there!"

"Looks like you've finally mastered the mystery of this game."

"Huh?"

Song Lan's words made her stunned for a long time, it was just her casual complaint just now, but if there were really no potato chips in it, then Lu Xiang would ......

"It's a battle of endurance and willpower."

Song Lan revealed the answer, "Give up, her dedication to potatoes far exceeds that of everyone, and no one can snatch Lao Lu's potatoes." ”
