Epoch of Twilight

Half an hour later, the group was sent to the city guest house.

The civil servant arranged the room. Before leaving, he suddenly received a call. After hanging up, he said to Luo Yuan respectfully, "Mr. Luo, the mayor wants to see you."

He looked a little strange. After the apocalypse, in order to enhance administrative efficiency, the political system has undergone fine-tuning. Now it is the mayor responsibility system, and the mayor is the highest leader.

But it is also the mayor, the mayor of a strategic city like Hope City, and the mayor of a small marginal city like Motu City, the status is simply very different. If you have to compare, it is equivalent to the difference between the provincial and ministerial level and the departmental level.

Luo Yuan calmed down after a slight disturbance: "Then I will trouble you."

"No trouble, no trouble, Mr. Luo is too polite." The civil servant said flattered.

"You don't have to wait for me, just rest after eating, I should be back soon." Luo Yuan put down the saber and said to Huang Jiahui.

Then Luo Yuan followed the civil servants and left the guest house. Ten minutes later, he stepped into the city government building.

"You are Luo Yuan, right? I'm Lai Yonglai, the mayor's secretary. The mayor has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with me." As soon as he entered the hall, a middle-aged man with a strong figure greeted him.

He walks vigorously, his feet are like walking on muddy ground, and his eyes are sharp and energetic. Such a character, even if he is not an evolutionary, he is also a practicer, but according to the practice of candidates for the secretary of the last days, he should have both, and he is powerful. .

"Please ask Secretary Lai to lead the way." Seeing that he didn't intend to shake hands, Luo Yuan said with a smile.

Secretary Lai did not speak, his face was expressionless, and he looked at Luo Yuan vigilantly. He seemed to be searching for a weapon that might be hidden, and had the urge to search.

In the end, Secretary Lai still didn't search him. For an evolutionary, if he wants to kill an ordinary person, he doesn't need a weapon at all.

Luo Yuan didn't take it seriously when he looked at the other person looking at him, as if facing a class enemy. Not everyone will treat him with courtesy, and it is impossible for everyone to like him.

Although it was already ten o'clock in the evening, the building was still busy with people coming and going in a hurry.

The two quickly walked to the mayor's office at the deepest point. Secretary Lai went up and knocked on the door, and said softly, "Mayor, Luo Yuan has arrived."

"Let him in!" The voice of the speaker was a little hoarse and low, and he was obviously old.

Secretary Lai gave Luo Yuan a warning look, made a gesture of invitation, and Luo Yuan pushed the door open and entered.

"Is that Comrade Xiao Luo? Sit down!" This is an old man who looks to be in his fifties or sixties. He wears black-rimmed reading glasses and his hair is half gray. When Luo Yuan came in, he quickly took off his glasses , said with a smile.

Luo Yuan hesitated, and sat down on the sofa next to him.

"Comrade Xiao Luo, you don't mind calling you over so late, do you?" the old man smiled and said kindly.

Luo Yuan shook his head, and said a little compliment: "It's my honor to be called by the Mayor of Labor!"

"You, you, since I got the information about you, I really want to see you. Unfortunately, Song Guangming of Motu City has been unwilling to let go, so I dragged it down. I didn't expect that Motu City would disappear if it said nothing. , even Song Guangming was sacrificed." The old man sighed Rulajiachang, with a look of regret.

"I'm just an ordinary evolutionary, so I don't need the mayor to take it seriously." Luo Yuan said with some doubts.

"Comrade Xiao Luo, it's not a good thing to be so low-key at such a young age." The old man pointed at Luo Yuan and scolded with a smile: "I know you have concerns, and I have heard some bad rumors, but these are aimed at certain temperaments. Bad individual, cancer of the system, you should be able to understand."

Luo Yuan nodded. He knew that what the other party was talking about was the purge of the army. This incident resulted in the killing of countless evolutionaries, and some powerful ones fled into the wild and became homeless.

"Now it can be said that human beings have reached the point of life and death. Human extinction is not a joke, but a reality. Maybe we can persist for five years, maybe we can't persist for one year.

You may not know that there are not many human beings in the world today. Africa, South America and Australia have completely lost contact. Our former neighbor Japan was also submerged in the earthquake and tsunami. Today, only Russia, the United States and Europe can be contacted. The total population may be less than 300 million, and most of them are old and weak, women and children, and human beings are at stake. "

The old man said in a heavy voice: "But maybe human beings will eventually become extinct, but it must be extinct without regrets, because we have exhausted all the potential of the race with all our efforts."

Luo Yuan's expression gradually became serious. The old man's voice was not loud, and his tone was as warm as water, but it made him deaf and shocked.

Perhaps the words were too heavy, the old man changed the subject and said: "The evolutionary is the hope of mankind to overcome the end times. Nowadays, science and technology can make such a leap forward, except that the major human gathering places completely let go of technological exchanges. The evolutionists have contributed a lot. Their abilities can often reach the level that science and technology cannot achieve. Of course, there are also some particularly powerful evolutionaries who struggle on all fronts and make great contributions to mankind.

The old man looked at Luo Yuan, and his eyes suddenly became sharp. For some reason, facing this ordinary old man, Luo Yuan suddenly felt a little nervous: "I know that young people, especially evolved ones, like freedom, but the current form has already There is no room for such a luxury to exist.

I asked you to come here this time. First, I want to hear your thoughts and what position you want to be in. Second, I just want to meet you and see if I can walk all the way from the enemy-occupied area to here, and bring a group of ordinary people with me. Team, who are they? Are there three heads and six arms? "

"I'm afraid I've let you down!" Luo Yuan said respectfully.

"No, I'm not disappointed. From the look in your eyes, I know that you are not the kind of selfish person, and that's enough." The old man comforted: "I heard that you are a martial artist, are you interested in being a martial artist?" Instructor?"

Seeing Luo Yuan's puzzled expression, the old man smiled and said: "Don't be surprised, how can we let a powerful evolutionary like you be free and know nothing about it?"

Luo Yuan declined: "I don't like the atmosphere of the army very much. Let me recommend two people, Deng Chao and Zhong Chuqiang. They have studied with me for a while, and they should have migrated here with the big team now."

Seeing his refusal, the old man was not surprised. This was just a trial. Affected by the Great Cleansing, the evolutionists who were not trained by the army were always somewhat repulsed by the army. When he heard that the other party recommended someone else to be an instructor, he changed his expression and said: "It's an ordinary Human, how strong is it?"

After Luo Yuan nodded, he said, "Basically, two or three levels of mutant beasts can be killed!"

The old man looked serious, and quickly took out his notebook and wrote down his name.

The information from Motu City seems to be inaccurate. The companions who have learned martial arts from him are stronger than what they appear on paper.

After an ordinary person has learned martial arts, he can kill two or three levels of mutant beasts. This is not ordinary martial arts. Most evolutionaries are also in this strength range.

Nowadays, martial arts are being popularized in the reconstruction area, but the actual effect is not ideal, completely falling short of expectations. He didn't expect Luo Yuan to bring him such a big surprise.

That's right, being able to walk all the way here from the occupied area, I don't know how many dangers I encountered during the period, even an ordinary person has become experienced in many battles. However, he will not fully believe it, everything has to be tested to know.

He closed his notebook and said with a smile: "Since I don't want to go to the army, I will recommend a special department. I think you will like it."
