The gatekeepers, both male and female, were very silent people. They seemed to have been deprived of the instinct to speak. He Fang didn't know how Ye Sheng communicated with the other gatekeepers, but they basically listened. Even He Fang was not sure whether they were really listening or were planning something.

Because the loyalty of gatekeepers like Ye Sheng has always been zero, He Fang is willing to trust Ye Sheng and let them work, but he still has some concerns in his heart, just in case He Fang does not remove the collars of everyone.

At that time, He Fang asked Mr. Ye: "Because of your special nature, I will not remove the collar. Do you agree?"

"It's okay." Ye Sheng's voice was like a robot, not cold at all. He was like a machine following orders.

"I will temporarily place you at the edge of the city. You can temporarily set up sentry posts wherever you like, but I will not give you lethal weapons. Your mission is only to keep an eye on whether there are people entering or leaving the border and report back at any time. Is that okay?"

He Fang will make new passes for the residents who are sent out. After all, the population of Hope City is really large. If someone sneaks in, they won’t know, so it is very important to do a good job of crowd statistics.

"Where is the Nightmare Beast?" Ye Sheng asked.

"No nightmare beasts will enter here. They don't have that ability." He Fang answered Ye Sheng very firmly at the time, and then saw that Ye Sheng's mechanical eyes had a complex look that he had never seen before. Sometimes He Fang really thought that it would be great if Ye Sheng was really a robot. At least robots don't have to be afraid of deceiving people. The most feared thing is this kind of guy who can't see through his heart.

However, as gatekeepers, they have the ability to guard a city, such as testing mercenaries, and detecting the true identity of people who attempt to enter the city. However, He Fang completely eliminated the gatekeeper's ability to detect nightmare beasts.

After all, He Fang has zero loyalty. Even if he trusts Ye Sheng, he still has to be cautious. So he notified Yuan Zhiran and asked Yuan Zhiran to form a patrol team to patrol every checkpoint at all times, which is another layer of insurance besides the collar.

The ordinary people in the exploration team were all put into the work of Hope City. These people who were once thought to be dead quickly surrendered when they saw that they still had a chance to live. When they were regarded as the exploration team by the Sun City, they were already dead. Now they have become new people in Hope City.

Because the criteria for eliminating people in the Sun City are very low, in fact, this group of exploration team members still have a lot of room to work. They are actually stronger than the old, weak and disabled people in the Hope City. It is not like the survivors of the Hope City, but the real rebirth after death. These former members of the Hope City exploration team are actually full of enthusiasm for the reconstruction of the Hope City.

After using the gatekeeper for a while, He Fang did not notice anything unusual, so he began to wonder whether the N-PC with "zero loyalty" could actually be used.

He thought carefully and felt that the relationship between him and the gatekeeper was more like that of an employer and an employee than that of a city lord and a resident. They signed a contract, and the gatekeeper did his job according to the contract. As long as the other party could keep paying the price, the gatekeeper would probably work for him.

I remember that when Mr. Ye agreed with He Fang's words, He Fang asked back: "Why did you figure it out?"

Ye Sheng looked sullen at the time. He replied, "In my opinion, more lives can survive in the city lord's city."

He Fang thought about it and felt that this sentence probably meant a measure of the internal balance of the intelligent N-PC. For example, as a gatekeeper, Ye Sheng's goal was to protect the city so that it could survive, and now it was obvious that his city was easier to survive than the Sun City, so he chose to obey.

However, He Fang also saw the possibility of a situation from Ye Sheng, such as the feasibility of "employment relationship" for external personnel. If his city develops in the future, it cannot be said that anyone who comes here can become a resident of the city.

According to the current national or urban household registration situation, it takes some time for migrant workers to be assessed based on conditions such as "paying social security" or "high contribution" to determine whether a person can transfer their household registration to the city.

In the future, if his city grows stronger and many small groups come to seek refuge, they can have an employment relationship with the city and then enter a probation period.

After all, if you think about it carefully, there are few people who work in reality who really care about the company. Everyone wants to make more money.

He Fang understood, so his household registration became particularly important from now on.

The design institute has already designed the blueprints for Hope City. He Fang took a look and thought they were quite good, so he handed the blueprints directly to Lu Hu. Lu Hu will use funds from the national treasury to start building Hope City.

Before the construction of Hope City is completed, the residents of Hope City can buy the places they like from him at a more favorable price, and all their money will be loaned from the city, and all of this will be operated by Lu Hu.

Looking at these interests, He Fang feels that urban development is just around the corner.

He Fang began to build a prison near Hope City, a biological research base required by the Institute, and a temporary residential area required by the Ministry of Public Security. Schools, medical facilities and the like were built directly in Hope City. He Fang established a high court in the main city.

He Fang sped up the time ratio of the game, and Hope City was built very quickly. People from the main city directly bought houses in Hope City, and commercial streets were gradually opened in Hope City.

After He Fang confirmed the passes, the people of Hope City could apply for passes to go to the main city. The two cities finally began to circulate money, and He Fang watched his treasury become richer and richer, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, he was right to expand the city directly, and because of the experience of the main city, as long as he was careful, Hope City would not be destroyed. And as long as he built enough cities, even if one city really had problems due to his negligence, he had other cities to support it, so it would not be possible to delete the file because of the destruction of a city.

Because it is still in the development stage, He Fang does not intend to be impatient. He still adheres to the spirit of steady and prudent progress and will expand outward after Hope City has reached a certain scale.

But He Fang also knew that he would not have any particularly good chance of finding the next City of Hope, so to build the next city he would probably have to start from scratch.

"It would be great if we could find the skeleton of another city." He Fang lay on the sofa, looking at the physical warehouse, and murmured, "Otherwise, how about expanding outward?"

He Fang was thinking about the meaning of the setting of "The Restart of the Ruins". It can't be said that it is infinite construction in infinite space. Then how long will it take to complete the construction?

He Fang felt relieved and wanted to play other games to relax. He looked at the games he bought some time ago that were being delivered and waited for them to arrive.

Because He Fang suffers from social anxiety, all packages are delivered to his door for a fee and then placed at the door. However, unlike take-out, which has a time limit, no one knows when the package will arrive. He Fang lay on the sofa, ordered himself a cup of milk tea, and wanted to relax.

This time he took a special look at the rider who took the order. It was a rider he didn't recognize, not the blond-haired delivery man. He wondered if it was possible that the blond-haired delivery man would deliver the order in the end.

He Fang began to feel drowsy while lying on the sofa. The young man stretched out his limbs on the sofa, covered with a piece of clothing, and slowly fell asleep.

When the text message ringtone and the knock on the door rang at the same time, He Fang blinked in confusion. His scalp tingled when he heard the knock on the door. Was it takeout? Didn't he already note to leave it at the door? No... Could it be the deliveryman?

There was a continuous knock on the door. He Fang didn't even have time to read the text message before he leaned over to look at the person outside. It was indeed a courier, wearing a familiar courier uniform. At this moment, the courier was knocking on the door with a frown on his face, as if he didn't understand why there was no movement inside.

He Fang's whole body froze. He immediately opened his phone and wanted to find the person who made the online purchase to send him a text message. However, during his hesitation, the other party called him. He Fang was so nervous that his phone fell to the ground. It was too late for him to pick it up and press the volume button.

The courier outside obviously noticed that there was someone inside, and he called out loudly, "Hello, courier!"

After all, it's a rented house, and I can't expect the sound insulation to be very good. He Fang can still hear all kinds of noise coming from next door at night. He must have been heard by the other party. If I don't open the door for them at this time, wouldn't it be very impolite?

He Fang's face looked bitter. He stood at the door, but did not dare to open it. He just stood there, wanting to tell the other party to just leave it at the door.

"You..." He Fang opened his mouth, but before he could speak, he suddenly heard a familiar, hearty voice that always spoke to him with a smile.

"Just leave the courier at the door, and the owner will come out to get it himself." It seemed like a familiar voice. He Fang's heart skipped a beat when he heard it. He secretly scratched the cat's eyes and looked outside.

The delivery man and the courier were standing together in a not very wide aisle. The courier looked good, at least in He Fang's eyes, but he didn't expect that he was not even a bit better than the delivery man.

He Fang only thought that now couriers and food deliverymen are required to have a face value label? Because it is a service industry? Is it so competitive?

But... He Fang felt something was a little strange. He didn't know why he felt that when the delivery man and the courier looked at each other, it was obvious that the two of them didn't seem to get along, even though the delivery man was smiling the whole time.

The courier, who was holding the package in his arms, looked at the delivery man with a cold expression, and then said with a fake smile: "You seem to be very familiar with it."

"Yes, I'm responsible for the takeout here." The delivery man shrugged and said with a smile, then he slightly stepped aside to make room for the aisle. "Sorry, am I blocking your way? I'll move aside a bit, you go first."

He Fang swallowed nervously for some reason. He really felt that the current situation was not good, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He just didn't know why this scene made him feel a sense of crisis.

The courier finally lowered his eyes. He bent down, put the package at the door, turned around and left without any hesitation. He even pressed the elevator button to go down, not giving the delivery man a chance to sit in the same elevator with him.

He Fang felt that the sound of the text message he just heard was most likely the habitual text message reminder when the delivery man was about to bring the takeaway to him.

I am a bit confused. It is clear that this delivery man did not take the order in the beginning, but he is always the one who delivers the food in the end. Does this mean that there is a new way of delivering food now?

But when he saw the familiar delivery man, He Fang breathed a sigh of relief. At least he didn't have to communicate with him.

He saw the blond delivery man turn around and look at Cat's Eye. Those extremely beautiful eyes were exceptionally bright and shining even in the somewhat dark aisle. His long blond hair seemed to glow, and he was particularly bright standing there.

If he had suddenly made eye contact with someone in this way before, He Fang would have definitely looked away, but maybe it was because of the cat eyes, plus his liking for the looks of this always friendly and sunny delivery man, He Fang did not look away this time.

He saw the bright delivery man, who seemed to know that he was being watched from inside the house, so the delivery man spoke, as always with a gentle smile: "It seems that this courier rarely delivers packages to you. If you don't like it, you can just ask the courier to leave it at the gate. I will pick it up for you when I deliver the package to you in the future. It's free. I remember that there is a surcharge for door-to-door delivery."

He Fang was stunned for a moment. He was a little surprised. He would occasionally see the most annoying situations of deliverymen when delivering food on the Internet. Customers would ask to buy supermarket items or ask them to take out the trash. These were behaviors that deliverymen hated very much.

This person... is so kind.

"Actually, I don't treat all deliverymen like this, but you are special." The deliveryman didn't seem to be in a hurry to leave. He seemed to be very sure that He Fang was listening to him behind the door, so he chatted with him for a while. "Every time I asked for a good review, you would give me a good review. You were also considerate and gave me delivery. You also helped me save things that I accidentally threw away. You may not like to communicate with people, but you have always respected me. Although you don't want to answer the phone, you will definitely reply to the message."

He Fang blinked his eyes. He listened to what the other party said but had no idea what the other person wanted to say.

"In fact, the most important thing is that you helped me pick up something very important to me. I really thank you very much. This is actually a game peripheral. I especially like the plot and CG of this game, and the battle mode of this game is very novel. This pendant appears repeatedly. I really like it so much that I bought it..."

He Fang looked at the person chattering on the other side of the door, and he suddenly understood that if he could communicate well, he might also be so enthusiastic to introduce his favorite game to others.

Although they didn't have a direct conversation, He Fang felt like the other person was chatting about games with him, and he actually enjoyed listening to it.

At this time, the delivery man's cell phone rang. He took a look at it, then showed a look of regret. He said to the door, "Customer, I have to leave. An order has come in. We will talk again when there is a chance. Next time, you can make a note to let me pick up the express delivery. Bye."

Are you leaving?

He Fang was a little flustered. He suddenly knocked on the door, very weakly, with a little bit of reluctance to ask for permission.

He Fang had never communicated with anyone so smoothly before, even though they had never met each other, but he didn't mind a chattering friend talking in his ear all the time.

The knock on the door was very quiet, but the delivery man still heard it. He stopped and asked in confusion, "What's the matter, customer? Do you have any garbage to throw away?"

He Fang trotted to the refrigerator nearby and took out a bottle of drink. Then, after making sure that the delivery man was still standing at the door, he opened the door a little and put the bottle of drink aside.

This time he did not close the door, but just opened it a little, waiting for the other party to take the drink he had placed at the door.

"Thank you." The man who had always been very talkative only said this one word very gently at this time, without any excuses or extra words. This made He Fang feel more receptive. At this time, he saw through the crack in the door a white hand reaching out to the bottle. That hand was very beautiful, the most beautiful hand He Fang had ever seen.

When his social anxiety was not so serious, He Fang would always keep his head down when talking to people and never look directly into the other person's eyes, so the thing he saw most often was a person's hands. For him, it was much easier to recognize a pair of hands than a person.

As for these hands now, He Fang feels that they can definitely be used as a model. Anyone would think that these hands are beautiful, white and slender. They are even more beautiful when holding colored drinks. Whenever they are held, they give people an inexplicable feeling of itching in their hearts.

"Thank you. I'm sorry to ask you to give me this. I haven't thanked you for helping me pick up something last time." The elevator that the other person had just pressed opened right after he finished speaking. This was the first time he heard the same voice as the one coming from him in person, not through the door or the phone. "Goodbye, customer."

The voice was extremely pleasant to the ear, like gentle whispers whispering in your ears. Different from the sound caused by electric current, his original voice seemed to have some unique sound, which made people unable to help but admire it and want to listen to it more.

But he still left. He Fang opened the door, saw the milk tea on his parcel, and put the things in.

He looked at the courier and unpacked it. There was simply a game inside. He Fang looked at the game and recalled the look on the delivery man's face when he was very happy because he was promoting his favorite game.

By some strange coincidence, He Fang took a photo of the game and sent it over.

When He Fang sent the photo, he thought that he was being too sentimental and wanted to withdraw it. However, this was a text message, and he felt uncomfortable for a moment.

But He Fang didn't expect that the other party would reply so quickly: "Wow, it's it! Could the package I just saw be it? Great, customer, I think we are really destined to meet, and we actually like the same things!"

'Would you like to add me as a friend? We can share some of our daily games. I really want to know what you think after playing this game! '

"I have never met anyone who likes games in real life. You are the first customer!"

As He Fang was speaking, he suddenly saw that he had one more friend request.

He Fang's heart skipped a beat. He hadn't received any friend requests for a long time. His friend list was empty. He didn't dare to have too many interactions with people. If the relationship between them got better through online chatting, what if he suddenly asked to meet in real life? The other party would definitely be disappointed. Even though he knew the probability of this happening was very low, He Fang didn't want things to turn out like this.

But this friend request was extremely tempting to He Fang. He hadn't thought about making friends for a long time, and now this framework almost made him excited to tears.

Is he going to have friends?

A friend with a common hobby?

Really?

He Fang was walking around the room anxiously with his cell phone in his hand. If it were any other time, he would have ignored it, but this time it was different.

The first is that the other party really has a very good-looking face. Even he has to admit that he likes good-looking things, otherwise he would not have chosen the best-looking one when choosing the landmark in "Restart of the Ruins", although it was originally for that good-looking beast.

The second is that he has been with the other person for a while, and the other person has always treated him gently. He didn't mind at all that he rejected her because of his social phobia and still communicated with her gently. How could this not be a temptation for He Fang?

He Fang has not left his house for a long time and has almost forgotten how to communicate with others. Even though he chose to cut off contact with others on his own initiative, he still feels lonely occasionally.

In the end, He Fang accepted the invitation.

When he accepted the invitation and successfully added the friend, the other party immediately sent a message: "Customer?"

He Fang thought about it and replied: 1.

Then the other party sent him a lot of game screenshots and introduced the game to him excitedly.

Maybe this behavior would be annoying to ordinary people, but it is just right for He Fang. Rather than polite words, what he wants more is a friend who can come up to him and talk about games directly without any hesitation.

He Fang clicked on every screenshot and video very carefully, and he had to say that this game was indeed very beautifully made.

He also discovered that the delivery man's gaming skills were very proficient. It looked like he was playing the game at the hellish level, with the boss being very difficult. However, even so, he was able to perform very beautiful operations without any mistakes. This was definitely the operation that only a skilled player could perform.

He Fang thought for a moment and said, "Did you do all this by yourself?"

'Of course, I played this video many times, adjusted the angle, and moved the camera. I want to ensure that every video I record is the best looking. If I can't make it look better, how can I recommend it to others! '

He Fang blinked his eyes and looked at these familiar and exciting words. He also slightly curled the corners of his mouth. He still liked this feeling very much.

When it’s time to play the game, see if you can share your gaming experience with your new friends. After all, they are the rare ones who share the same hobby.

This was the first time that He Fang had opened a game with such anticipation.

The game is great, the design is interesting, the scenes are beautiful, the combat system is very novel, the hitting feeling is strong, and the plot is also remarkable. He Fang really understood why the delivery man liked this game so much at that time.

He Fang is a player who is very addicted to games, but a person's energy is always limited.

Then He Fang never expected that when he woke up from his obsession and wanted to watch "The Ruins Never Restarted", the first thing he saw was that the happiness of the residents had dropped by more than a thousand.

He Fangren was dumbfounded.

Down...down so much?

Why?

He Fang has always attached great importance to the happiness of the residents and has seen them steadily improve every day. He has only not played the game for three days, so why has their happiness dropped so much?

Suddenly He Fang remembered that he seemed to have sped up the game before, and after three days, the time that had passed in the game might have been calculated in years. A lot of important information appeared in the event statistics of the game, and he couldn't even read it all.

But He Fang was very confused. This kind of situation had happened before. After all, infrastructure games need time to develop. He Fang's city has always been built very slowly. Although he has been playing this game for three years, the time span in the game is almost three generations. It is impossible that the happiness of the residents would drop so much just because he has not been online for three days.

Is this abnormal?

He Fang suddenly felt that there might be a problem in Hope City. He did not rush into the city, but checked the important events in the event statistics one by one.

Hope City is developing quite well, business has been opened up, and a second railway has been built and is now in operation. Many people from the two cities are already communicating with each other. Because of the three-day crash, the New Year was spent in the game, and during this span of New Year, the Hope City, which originally had only a skeleton, has begun to take shape and is well built.

During this period, Saigu came back several times and brought some information about other mobile cities. Some files about other mobile cities have been established at Guo Miaofeng's place. When He Fang opened the file and saw the very detailed information inside, he really felt that Saigu's ability to obtain information was simply terrifying. The information in each file was extremely detailed, and even weaknesses could be found by Saigu.

After more than a year of training, the armed forces led by Yuan Zhiran already had very good soldiers, and they also developed a barracks in Hope City. Surprisingly, during this period the gatekeepers have been working quietly and hard, and nothing unexpected has happened.

"It's strange. Everything is going smoothly. There is no shortage of resources due to rapid development. What is the reason that the happiness of residents has dropped so drastically?"

He Fang couldn't help muttering to himself. He spent a long time looking at the event statistics but found no clues.

"Is it because the city lord is away? Will the long-term absence of the city lord lead to a decline in the happiness of the residents?"

However, only the happiness of the main city decreased. The happiness of Hope City suddenly increased significantly, and the average loyalty level directly exceeded 100.

If that's the case, there wouldn't be a city lord in Hope City, so the happiness of the residents wouldn't decrease, right?

Is it because of xenophobia? Do they not want people from Hope City to enter the city?

Shouldn't it? At least Min Zhizhou has had a good life so far.

He Fang looked at the statistics of events in Hope City, but his brows furrowed.

What deserves his attention most is.

The prison has been built, and it is full!

He Fang didn't understand. He Fang was very confused. Could it be that the crime rate in Hope City suddenly soared without his knowledge? Was it because the law was not popularized quickly, or was there another reason?

He Fang frowned and opened the prison statistics, but his expression suddenly changed from sad to confused.

The people in prison are basically mercenaries from outside who have never been registered!

——

Not long ago, a rumor suddenly appeared.

It is said that a strange phenomenon occurred at the place where Hope City was destroyed.

All those who entered that area never came out again.

According to current news, Hope City should have become Nightmare Forest, but now there is a rumor that there is an underground resource "Land of Hope" near Hope City. It is said that there are quite a lot of resources in the "Land of Hope", which was a fallback left by the people of Hope City before evacuating.

This rumor was only revealed later. It is said that the first people to know about it were from the City of Fiery Sun, and it was later confirmed by the people who escaped from the City of Hope.

In this apocalypse where everything is lacking, people are definitely eager to obtain abundant resources, so countless mercenaries go to Hope City to see if they can get the resources of the "Land of Hope".

You can make a fortune with just one job, and you won’t even have to worry about food and drink for the rest of your life.

Mercenaries themselves are fighting for their lives, and there are many mercenaries who often enter the Nightmare Forest. However, it is said that all the mercenaries who said they were going to Hope City have lost contact afterwards.

It's clearly a Nightmare Forest, but there is no news at all. This is very unbelievable.

There is a system for sharing Nightmare Forest intelligence in the mobile city, called the Black Map. Usually, the mobile city has the obligation to detect the conditions of the surrounding Nightmare Forest and record them in the Black Map. This is to allow everyone to survive better.

The territory of Hope City was marked as a black map by Sun City, but even if it was a black map, it shouldn't be possible that no news could be transmitted. This was very strange.

In this apocalyptic world where the basic status quo has already been fixed, the sudden appearance of such anomalies will cause panic. If the Nightmare Forest, which is already uncontrollable, suddenly experiences a change, it will be suffocating for them.

Therefore, all mobile cities now need to thoroughly explore this strange place, so some cities have temporarily formed more capable upper-level personnel into mercenary-like teams to conduct exploration, but all of them have gone and never returned.

The place where the rumored city of Hope was destroyed was like a bottomless pit, causing all the mobile cities to fall into panic.

This time, their Black Flag Mercenary Squad received a commission from the super-large mobile city 'Angel City', asking them to explore the City of Hope.

Black Flag is one of the most famous mercenary teams nowadays. Their mercenary team has ten members, and each of them used to be the captain of a certain mercenary team. They are proficient in identifying the complex nightmare plants in the Nightmare Forest, and they also know where it is easier to obtain resources. They always bring back abundant resources without wasting any team members, and they are well-deserved elites.

But now this group of elites have started quarreling with each other.

"Captain! Why did you accept this mission? You know how terrible Hope City is now. No one who goes there can come back! Even if we like money, we have to live to spend it!" Qiaoqiao, one of the only two women in the mercenary group, was complaining to their tall and strong captain, "Now no mercenary group can get out of there, not a single one! Do you know what this means?"

Zhou Fang, the head of the mercenary corps who was complained about, frowned with a strange look on his face. He took a puff of cigarette and looked at the others: "Do you have the same opinion?"

"The situation is indeed a bit complicated now. After all, no one is sure what the situation is in the Nightmare Forest. There is no fixed information so far. This will make us very passive. The disappearance rate is too high. Even if we have good tacit understanding, we may still lose our companions." Zhou Fang's younger brother Zhou Yuan also said at this time, "Brother, you are too rash to accept this commission."

However, Zhou Fang took a deep puff of cigarette and exhaled slowly, his expression solemn.

At this time, another woman beside him noticed Zhou Fang's expression. She had always admired their captain Zhou Fang, so it was easier for her to see through his emotions. At this time, she leaned gently and tenderly to Zhou Fang's side: "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

The cigarette in Zhou Fang's hand was almost burned out, but he had no intention of putting it out. After a long time, he said in front of his team members: "Angels City has deprived us of our trading rights."

At this moment, everyone was silent.

Everyone present knew exactly what deprivation of trading rights meant.

They are mercenaries, and they can only ensure a rich life by trading various resources and various mobile cities. Once they lose the right to trade, the worst thing is not that they can no longer trade, but that the resources they find will not be protected even if they are intercepted and plundered by others. This basically cuts off the path of a mercenary.

"This damn Angel City, what do they mean? Are they going to kill us no matter what? Do the people in Angel City want us to investigate the situation, or is there someone who hates us and wants to take this opportunity to get rid of us?!"

What the team members said was not unreasonable, but even if it was reasonable, there was no way they could do anything about it. They were just a group of ten mercenaries, how could they possibly compete with a super large mobile city.

"Maybe they thought we were the first to come out. The other mobile cities sent mostly mercenaries. It's very likely that they lost all their own people at the beginning. So now it's the turn of Angel City. In order to protect their own residents, Angel City chose to force a mercenary group that has nothing to do with them to entrust them."

"Their lives are lives, but our lives are not lives?" At this time, the person next to him was so angry that he wanted to smash the wall.

At this time Zhou Fang wanted to continue smoking, but found that the cigarette had burned to the filter at the end. Nowadays, all cigarettes are luxury goods, and it is very good to be able to smoke one. He usually smokes very frugally, but now he is in a bad mood and has forgotten his usual frugality and took out another cigarette.

Qingqing, who was standing by, stepped forward and helped him light the cigarette with a lighter, a look of worry showing on her pretty face.

"Although they forced us to do the mission, they also promised us huge benefits." Zhou Fang leaned against the wall with a complicated and strange look on his face. "As long as we can get out of this trip, they will give each of us three years of commission, and even all the resources we bring back will be calculated at ten times the market price. If any one of us is lost, we will be given additional compensation..."

Zhou Fang stated all the terms promised by the City of Angels one by one, and the mercenary corps, which were originally filled with indignation, suddenly calmed down.

The reward this time was very large, so large that it was astonishing.

"Are you kidding us?" Zhou Yuan couldn't help but ask. This salary was really too high.

"They posted it directly on the task list, targeting Angel City. If they don't keep their promise, it will harm their interests." Zhou Fang shook his head. "This commission is not the initial commission, but was added after we lost countless mercenary groups. Now Angel City is putting pressure on us, so we have to accept it. Although it looks like a good number, we have to live to get it."

There will always be brave men when there is a big reward. As mercenaries, they risk their lives to make money. How can they not be tempted by such a good reward now?

"Since I can't refuse,
