"massacre?"
A bonfire was lit on the ground in the center of the settlement. He Ming accepted Yak's invitation and sat beside the bonfire together, drinking beer brought back from the town.
Yake nodded, sighed, and showed a trace of hatred in his eyes.
"During the day, I saw a few familiar faces among the people wearing military uniforms very similar to yours. They are not soldiers of the United Earth, they are just gangsters who used to do nothing in the town."
"Someone is pretending to be the United Earth Forces?"
He Ming was a little surprised.
In his memory, nothing like this seemed to have happened.
Even if the Earth Alliance led by the Atlantic Alliance wants to do something, they will go directly to the scene.
There is no need to let those gangsters wear the skin of the United Earth to do evil.
"Probably."
Yak nodded, raised the cup and took a sip, then slowly let out a sigh of relief.
"The world has changed. I'm afraid that soon even our remote place far away from society will be affected by those messy things. There are no adjusters in that town, they are just ordinary people
.But even so, the madmen who shouted "for a clean and blue sky" rushed in and massacred and looted."
"That pair of siblings are the children of a store owner who usually has a good relationship with our settlement. Every year before the snow falls, the parents of that pair of siblings will personally deliver a batch of supplies to us. This has been going on for ten years regardless of rain or shine.
.It can be said that they also watched my Hawke grow up."
He Ming was silent.
In fact, He Ming cannot give any advice.
"Hahahaha! It makes your mood worse, brother. Let's not talk about these messy things. Come on! Let's have a drink!"
Seeing He Ming's silence, Yake thought it was his own complaints that made He Ming's mood worse.
"No, it's nothing. I have to thank you for taking us in. Otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do tonight!"
"Haha! You see. I heard what my son said. Did you kill that damn brown bear?"
"That's right!"
He Ming nodded, and then several cups were stretched out in front of He Ming.
"Hahahaha! Don't worry! We respect men like you! What's the point of fighting with others! If you have the guts, go and fight that big bear to the death! So, don't talk about accepting these things, just think of it as our gift to your brother.
Thanks!"
Unable to resist the warm welcome, He Ming had no choice but to fight and have a drink with these men who had just emerged from the killings.
He Ming knows that these seemingly cheerful men may feel uncomfortable in their hearts.
After drinking the men down one by one, He Ming put down his wine glass, patted the dust on his body, walked to the edge of the settlement, looked at the wasteland under the stars, and thought of what Yake mentioned in his mind.
A slogan.
"For a clean and blue sky? It seems that that town has been occupied by blue cosmos, no, or fanatics who were bewitched by blue cosmos."
If this is the case, He Ming will have a dilemma whether to go to that town or not.
It wouldn't be a big deal if He Ming was alone.
However, Bucky Lulu's injuries may not be affected by possible conflicts or even fights.
During the banquet, He Ming casually asked if there were any other towns nearby.
As a result, there is.
But the distance is almost a hundred kilometers away.
But the advantage is that that town is closer to the Alaska headquarters of the Earth Alliance and has more complete facilities.
According to Yake, there seems to be a company of about a hundred people stationed in that town.
There was no denying that He Ming was moved.
However, the distance of nearly one hundred kilometers between the settlement and this town made He Ming in trouble.
If there is a relatively complete road network, it doesn't matter what the name is, it's just a matter of how many days it takes.
The problem is that most of the approximately 100 kilometers are in wasteland areas with poor road conditions and are quite dangerous.
"Sir, are you worried about the next journey?"
Just as He Ming was bathing in the starlight and thinking, a slight sound of footsteps came from behind.
It's the old woman.
He Ming saw the other party's face clearly with the firelight and starlight in the distance, and quickly stood up and said.
"It made you laugh."
"No! I can't bear it, old lady!"
Seeing He Ming get up, the old woman quickly stepped aside and said repeatedly.
This unusual attitude made He Ming a little surprised.
The old woman smiled and didn't say anything more, but directly handed the key in her hand to He Ming.
"This is the key to my son's SUV. He hasn't used it many times since he bought it."
He Ming frowned.
"Why?"
"No reason. This is conditional. I hope you can take those siblings away. Our settlement cannot bear the changes brought about by those siblings."
"That pair of siblings?"
He Ming's eyes flashed, and he remembered the pair of siblings brought by Yake and his group of men.
"Are you afraid of the revenge of those people?"
"Of course. There's nothing to hide."
The old woman admitted frankly.
"Since the birth of those adjusters, the entire world has begun to change. Especially after the establishment of the PLANT that hangs in the sky and is regarded as a paradise by most adjusters, everything has fallen towards the irreversible abyss.
.”
"It can be as small as fighting each other on the street, or as big as fighting each other in the deep space and destroying colonial satellites one after another."
The old woman let out a sigh.
However, her sigh was in great contrast with her almost primitive tribal clothing.
"Are you surprised?"
The old woman looked at He Ming.
He Ming nodded slightly.
"Indeed. I'm surprised."
"This is not surprising. No matter who it is, as long as they think that there may be a colonial satellite above their heads at any time, or that an asteroid may crash down, they will always have some wild thoughts."
The old woman chuckled.
There was no sign of unfounded worry on her face that she might be hit by a colonial satellite or asteroid falling from the sky at any time.
"Food, clothing and other necessities have been prepared in the car. When the morning light comes, you can set off with your companions and the siblings. Later, our settlement will also move deeper into the wilderness, away from
These messy things."
After the old woman handed the key to He Ming, she turned around and walked into the settlement.
"Adino, is it possible that the attack on this settlement will be serious?"
"Lack of information! But according to the descriptions of Yake and others, the possibility of encountering retaliation from extremists is as high as 70%."
"Really? No wonder."
He Ming clenched the key in his hand and shook his head slightly.
Compared to cold data and speculation, the people in this settlement seem to believe more in the human nature they have seen and recognized in the past.
Presumably, when Yak and the others witnessed the tragedy that happened in the town, they had already thought that their own settlement might also suffer such a disaster.
"Then, let's drive through this wilderness and head to the Alaska headquarters of the United Earth."
