The problem of racial discrimination has been around for a long time, even in antiquity. But in the new era, ability is determined by genes and potential, not skin color and race. This is a well-known truth, but there are still some deep-rooted and rotten ideas that extend from the old times to the present day.

The human race on the Middle-earth continent is dominated by the British and American races, in other words, the white-skinned race accounts for the vast majority. So it's not surprising that discrimination arises, it's just that the cities Zero has stayed in before are all in the wilderness. In the wilderness, there is a large flow of people in the city, and it is difficult to form a sense of belonging to the city. But Asgard is different, and Ben is firmly attracted to the people who live in the city through a special system.

These people have developed a sense of belonging to Asgard and are proud to be legal residents of the city. In such a situation, there is rarely a turnover of people, and once the vast majority of the fixed personnel form the same atmosphere, discrimination inevitably arises. And because of the particularity of the new era, this phenomenon will more often manifest itself in the army.

Veterans looked down on new recruits, and white warriors despised people of other colors. These actions may seem irrational, but they are real.

Just like the three Su in front of him, Zero suddenly understood that he would be assigned to this dormitory, perhaps not simply because he wanted him to integrate into the army as soon as possible, or because he considered that assigning Zero to other dormitories might not be accepted by other white soldiers.

"Well, let's not talk about that. Kaede clapped his palms and said, "To celebrate Zero's joining, let's go to the tavern to celebrate." Their fried veal steak is well done, how about it, I'm in for a treat!"

He patted his chest hard, but unfortunately Kaede was not the kind of tall man, so his appearance was not only heroic, but a little funny.

Su Bai glanced at him and said, "Do you have so many merit points to squander?"

"Not much, after putting Rankine and their team together last time, the reward we got was just enough for us to splurge on. Let's go, let's go!" Feng couldn't help but say, and immediately pushed the black Matthei outside.

And just like that, Zero follows them to a tavern near the camp. The tavern was run by the military headquarters in Asgard, and there was one in almost every barracks. In the barracks, soldiers are not allowed to drink or hide alcohol. If you want to drink, you can only go to the military tavern. But here, merit points must be spent, and they are charged twice as much as the taverns outside.

Such a tavern provides a place for the soldiers to spend their excess energy, and on the other hand, it recovers the merit points of the soldiers, thereby stimulating the soldiers to work harder to complete the task, which is to kill two birds with one stone.

Naturally, the Military Tavern can't be as lively as other taverns, after all, not everyone has a lot of merit points to squander like this. Therefore, when the three of them walked into this tavern, although it was already night, the tavern was sparsely populated, and it was not as popular as the tavern in the wilderness city.

The ceiling fan on the ceiling of the pavilion rotates limply, and the jukebox in the corner plays sleepy country music. The dim light is mostly concentrated in the center of the sprinkle hall, so the surrounding corners appear dim. In these dimly lit corners, soldiers were drinking and eating. But when a few people came in, most of them looked up and threw a less friendly look at them.

Zero naturally didn't take these eyes to heart, and under Kaede's leadership, he came to the bar. At the back of the bar, an old bartender with gray hair was wiping down a row of empty wine glasses at the bar, and Kaede threw his ID card in front of the bartender and said, "Hey, old Henry." Bring us a bottle of whiskey and four pan-fried steaks. ”

Henry, the bartender, silently picked up Kaede's identity card, then swiped it across a scanner on the bar, and then said lightly to Kaede: "Young man, it seems that your merit value is not enough to pay for this." ”

Kaede's smile immediately froze on his face, and he jumped up and said, "Old Henry, you didn't see it clearly!"

The bartender said expressionlessly, "Although I am old, my eyes are not flowery." ”

Kaede wanted to say something, but Su had already untied his identity card and moved it to the bartender's eyes and said, "Use mine." ”

Old Henry silently took Su's identity card and swiped it, gave it back to Su after a glance, and then shook the bell on the bar. Soon a young bartender approached, and old Henry quickly wrote down the menu and told him to take it to the kitchen, then took out a bottle of whiskey and four glasses from the wine cabinet, and Zuihou placed them on a plate and moved them to Zero Four.

"Have a nice meal. Old Henry said lightly.

Watching him turn away, Kaede gestured at him with a middle finger and filled four wine glasses.

"Come, let's have a drink and celebrate Zero's access!" Kaede said in a loud voice.

Zero smiled and picked up the sprinkling arms, touched them with the arms of the three of them, and drank them all again. In the previous journey, although Zero had all kinds of companions around him, in general, he was fighting alone. But at this moment, as he watched the four wine glasses crash together, Zero suddenly realized that in the coming days, he would have three more comrades.

Perhaps, it's time to end the lone wolf career. In his heart, Zero said to himself.

The glass was put down with a bang, and after drinking the glass, even the black man Matthei, who had been quiet, smiled. Alcohol is indeed a good thing to bring men closer. After a few cups, Matthei had already chatted with Zero without a word. During the conversation, it was learned that Ma Pei was also a mercenary before, so the two had more topics in common.

Before the main course was served, Su went to the bathroom. Because of the whiskey, her cheeks turned red, which made Su look more beautiful. Su was a little excited, no one knew Zero's abilities better than her. At that time, the image of Zero ending Raff's life with two shots in the wilderness is still vivid, and with a sniper like Zero joining the team, he will be able to take on more combat situations.

Like all the soldiers in the boot camp, Su aspires to be a full member of the Hammer of Doom. This way, she can receive more tasks, get more paid, and even use it to buy the accurate information she needs. Graduation depends on the team's overall score.

With Zero joining, I believe that their team will be able to achieve better results.

She washed her face and left the bathroom, walking through the dimly lit corner of the tavern. But when he passed a table, a hand touched Su Gao's buttocks in the dim light.
