Chapter 39

In this turbulent era, respect and appreciation were all useless words. Strength was the cornerstone of everything.

If the license issued by the Parkland plutocrat had not passed through the checkpoint to inform the union officers before they entered the base, if Theon had not taken an interest in the mercenary and called up his assignment records, if Zero had not killed a butcher alone in Silvertree.

In that case, Sean wouldn't come to the temporary stop, and he wouldn't give Zero Open a level three or above mercenary mission.

And all of this was dependent on its strength!

Without power, you can only live like a dog in the wilderness.

Only if you have sufficient strength will you be respected, as well as other resources.

A butcher was a Level 3 dangerous monster. Any mercenary or hunter under Rank 3 could upgrade their license by at least one rank by killing a butcher.

At that time, Zero had no license, so even if he killed the butcher, he could only obtain the acknowledgement of the primary rank.

Of course, the Parkland trade unions were skeptical about the zeros.

Otherwise, zero could at least get a first-order license.

Of course, Sean would not unreservedly trust in Zero, but as long as there was a 70% confidence in Zero's record, then he would be qualified to carry out this mission.

Of course, Sean had other backup plans.

After all, this was one of the important tasks of the Ramtec expansion plan, and the Vice Chairman could not leave it to a single mercenary.

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, come to me in the Union Hall.

I will give you some details of the mission and introduce you to some of my companions. "

"You can rest assured that the same thing will not happen," Sean added to Zero.

"Trust me, I have the ability to do so."

The vice president left, and Zero and Leigh returned to the tent.

When Teddy brought him some bread, he puffed up his left eye and said, "Thank you for taking care of Leigh when I left."

"Don't say that, man."

People in the Wilderness knew that only by taking care of each other could they live longer.

"Besides, we owe you a big favor."

Teddy scratched his head, embarrassed. "But we can't help much. If you don't get here in time …"

"Let's not talk about this anymore, you guys should eat something first.

We're going to the business district in the afternoon to see if we have any work to do. "

Teddy pointed to the bread and backed out of the tent.

On a plate are two moldy loaves of bread. The food is past its shelf life, but it has little radiation.

In this era, especially for humans who grew up in harsh environments, their stomachs were not so weak that they could not eat food that had expired.

He took out half of the bread and put it in his mouth.

Then he pushed the rest of the meal in front of Leah, who shook her head.

"You can eat the rest, but you still have to go on a mission. How can you not have the stamina to do so?"

"It doesn't matter, I'm different from you guys.

"Half of the bread's energy is enough to sustain me for three days."

No, Leah needed food more than anything else.

Nearby, Lara called out in a low voice, reminding Zero not to forget it.

Zero picked Lala up and said, "You and I will go out on a mission. There's nothing else in the ruins, but there's a lot of scrap metal."

Lala's eyes lit up as she excitedly slapped her ears and wings and flew around Zero and Leah twice.

"Zero, why did you leave Z7 with me?"

Leah finally asked, "You should stay. With your ability, the Parkland plutocrats will use you."

You could even be recruited to the main office.

A hand on Leah's head forced her to stop.

"Because I want to be a man, not a dog," she said.

"No matter how high his position is, he's still just a dog!"

Leah shuddered, then said, "But you've helped me so much, and I've got nothing to repay you for."

"No, perhaps …"

Zero looked at her quizzically, but Leigh suddenly fell into his arms.

The girl raised her hand and pressed it to her chest. Leah said shyly, "If you want, I can give it to you."

Though I probably can't make you as comfortable as those women.

"But I promise, this body has never been touched by other men."

There was a fire burning in her lower abdomen, and Leah's cherry red face was more attractive than her naked body.

He could feel the fullness under the palm, as well as the amazing elasticity.

Leah sat on top of the zero, the first thing she felt was a change in his masculinity.

She moaned, her body burning with fever, but she still reached out to take off her robe.

However, Zero's hand made her stop.

With clear eyes, he picked Leah up and made her lie down in a comfortable position.

"If this is a reward, wait until I return."

"Before the mission, it's not suitable for intense exercise."

Zero said.

He is not a Puritan who pursues the ascetic life, but he does not have to be at odds with himself.

Leah was a beautiful girl, young and healthy, with a body that men dreamed of, and no exception.

But he was more sensible, and he knew that, after a great deal of entertainment, it was inevitable that his nervous reaction would be more sluggish than usual.

There was nothing wrong with this state. Considering the afternoon task, he decided to stay in his best condition.

Of course, he wouldn't mind plucking this sweet fruit when the mission was complete and Leah was willing to do it.

Leah nodded shyly but obediently.

In the turbulent years, men, both physically and in terms of adaptability, showed unparalleled importance in the face of harsh environments and ubiquitous dangers.

The position of women is correspondingly reduced, even to the level of the Middle Ages.

For men, they are more about sex and breeding, that's all.

In this era, a woman could sell her young body for three meals to eat.

It was all thanks to Old Jack that Leah was able to keep her virginity until she was eighteen.

But now Old Jack was dead, and if it hadn't been for the zero, Lia would have been dead.

Even to be sold to the nobility as slaves for good looks, that inhuman life would be the nightmare of all women.

So it was already a happy thing for her to have a small, independent space.

She didn't mind dedicating herself to the zero, which was the ideal option for her right now, no matter how she looked at it.

And more important, Leah realized, zero for her was not just a tool in bed and a reproductive object, but a love that was respectful and indiscernible.

These two points alone gave Leah ample reason to open herself up to nothing.

Now, like an obedient little wife, she would eat the food obediently and then lie down on the floor and fall asleep.

When there was even breathing coming from Lia's nose, she called up and quietly withdrew from the tent.

He left the station and headed for the district.

For the time being, there was no need to worry about Lia's safety. If Sean's guarantee was invalid, then she would use ten times, or even a hundred times, to obtain justice from the vice president of the trade union.

But now, he chose to trust.
