The city where remt is located is called kadam. In the old times, it was a big city with a population of one million. After complete planning, the city has perfect supporting facilities. However, these numerous buildings suffered serious damage on the day of the great disaster. Almost half of the city was destroyed. Up to now, a pit with a diameter of about kilometers can be seen in the northwest of the city from the air.

It was the scar of the earth directly hit by the meteorite. It was like the mouth of a giant beast, revealing its silent ferocity to the world.

Remt is rebuilt bit by bit in such a deserted city, which occupies a small part of the east of the city. After 20 years or more of reconstruction and construction, remt residents have not only built living bases underground, but also repaired many building facilities on the surface, including the water circulation system required for survival.

During the day, most of remt's residents live in underground bases. Only a small number of soldiers on the ground stay in the sentry tower as guards, and at night, the temperature of the ground drops to the appropriate temperature, and the residents can come to the ground to breathe. The restored buildings can be used for their rest and chat, and even remt has set up a bar on the ground that is only open at night.

People can drink and chat here, listen to songs and dance, and relive the debauchery and passion of the old times. For many bitter settlements and bases, remt has been equivalent to heaven.

Remt accepts outsiders, but it is on the edge of mainland China, and few people deliberately migrate to remt. Therefore, the number of residents in remt has remained basically unchanged for ten years. It is not easy to join remt. In addition to the charges of various names like other bases, remt also adopts the conscription system.

In other words, in addition to children and the elderly, young men and women will be incorporated into remt as soldiers. Here they will receive the training of soldiers, and then according to the arrangement, each person must participate in the work of guarding and maintaining law and order at least once a month.

The fee for applying for admission to remt alone has deterred most people.

The green car drove into the highway and came to the entrance checkpoint of the settlement along the special lane excavated by remt. Several soldiers with real guns stopped the car. The muzzle of the black gun was aimed at the car. Then a middle-aged officer stood up and asked, "where are you from?"

Teddy got up from his seat. He opened the door, jumped onto the hot mud and stone ground, raised his hand and said, "Hello, sir. We escaped from dar. The water source in our settlement has dried up and no one can live here. Do you see if remt still has a place to take us in?"

The officer pressed his visor and shouted, "how many of you?"

"Fourteen, sir."

"Remt can hold this quantity," the officer nodded.

"Great," Teddy shouted cheerfully.

"Don't be happy too early, boy. Remt is not a charity. You can stay if you want to. Each person should pay a temporary residence fee of 10 yuan. After paying this money, you can go into the base. But you have to stay in the temporary residence we arranged for a week and make sure you have no problem before you can formally apply for a resident permit." the officer held out his hand and said: "If you can't afford it, I advise you to get out. I don't want the soldiers to waste their energy and drive you out."

Teddy showed a embarrassed expression. Dar is a poor resource settlement. Teddy and his family live there. They almost solve their daily needs by themselves, and at most they barter. Therefore, everyone rarely has money for this kind of thing. Teddy has 25 yuan, but 20 of them are pocket money.

"Let's talk about it, sir," Teddy said and returned to the car.

They put together only 42 yuan, which is only enough for four people to temporarily live in remt, and they don't know how much it will cost to apply for an official resident card.

"Let women's children in, as for us..." Ji'an looked at everyone and said bitterly.

Teddy walked to zero, waved his head towards the entrance and said, "I think you should be able to pay the temporary accommodation fee. Go in quickly."

Zero is really affordable. In addition to deducting the needs of daily life, in the past two years, with zero salary and the money earned from the task, he has 230 yuan left after buying equipment. Of course, he has only 200 yuan left after paying Teddy 20 yuan for the car.

He nodded and pulled Leah up to get off. To be honest, he sympathized with teddy and them, but he didn't want sympathy in this damn era. But Leah was obviously not hard hearted. When the girl came to the door, she stopped and her eyes in her hat fell on zero.

"Can we... Help them?" Leah wondered. She knew there was some change, but not much. She tried her best to tell her not to mind her own business, but she couldn't help asking.

Zero looked at her and said seriously, "I've helped them a lot. At least let them have a temporary residence fee for two people. Even so, do you still want to help them?"

"I know it's silly to do this, and I know that every resource must be used in ideas." Leah looked up with firm eyes: "but after all, we are not animals, but people! We are all of the same kind. If possible, help them."

The girl's words calmed the people in the carriage. Their eyes at Leah were very complicated. There is moving, but more respect.

After a moment of silence, zero crossed Leah and walked down the door. Leah was slightly disappointed, sighed and got off the car. No, she heard the zero officer ask a question.

"I'm a mercenary. I don't know if remtry has a job to take. The kind of money." zero took out a junior mercenary license, which was applied for by old Jack from parkland after he killed the butcher.

Undoubtedly, the officer also recognized parkland's logo. Being able to get a mercenary license in such a large company, although it is only the first level, is more valuable than the third or even fourth level license granted by a small company.

The officer put on a smiling face, nodded and said, "as long as you have the ability, remt welcomes mercenaries like you. For the sake of this license, your temporary residence fee can be exempted."

At zero, he took out 130 yuan from his wallet and handed it to the officer: "this is their expense. Now, let's go to the city."

Counting the money in his hand, the officer waved back. The gate of the checkpoint was slowly. Leia and the people in the car were stunned by this scene. Then they cheered.

Zero back to the car and took Leah back to her seat. Looking at the grateful eyes of the people in the car, zero whispered to Leah, "you are their Maria."

"Maria? Who is that?" obviously, the girl born in the new era has never heard of the name of the virgin.

Zero smiled and said nothing, although he didn't agree with Leah's overflowing compassion. But in this cruel age, Leah's kindness is as precious as a diamond. It is this kindness that makes zero willing to guard it. Even if he doesn't know how long he can guard.
