Summoning Mercenaries

　　 A round of hanging in the air tomorrow will reflect the earth, and the escaping heat also makes the road look a little ghosted in the car.

　　 The Kent and his group’s pickup truck was air-conditioned. Everyone felt the warmth, but they felt it was cool.

　　 Laura said that she didn't eat snacks, but her mouth was still very honest. She was playing games that don't require internet with Ashley and Qin, and she was eating potato chips that Kent gave her.

　　 Simon was still wearing a skull mask and was driving intently, while Kent was also attentively listening to Quill's explanation.

I saw Quill frown slightly, put the tablet away, and squeezed his chin in one hand, saying: "Before rumors, there seemed to be something in this ruin. Then it was strictly controlled, and then I encountered this unprecedented epidemic. It feels like this is definitely not a coincidence."

"Humm..." Kent also fell silent when he heard this. He didn't know much about the political system of this world, but only the northern hemisphere was affected by Mars, and most of the small and medium-sized towns in the northern hemisphere fell into Grad's hands. This thing seems a little eye-catching.

　　 Then, Kent said solemnly: "Professor, if I said, if the virus was found in the ruins, then the government will use the virus to indirectly erase the population of the northern hemisphere of Mars?"

　　 "This!" Quill opened his eyes wide, not wanting to believe that Kent would make these remarks, but after thinking about it for a moment, Quill said:

“I’m just an archaeologist and don’t know much about biology or chemistry. However, from my point of view, the virus that caused this epidemic is likely to come from that remains. I know the truth."

　　 "Indeed, our analysis here is useless," Kent said.

　　 "Huh?" Quail looked at Kent and asked, "Why do you say this is a conspiracy by the government?"

　　 "This..." Kent pondered for a long time and couldn't say why.

　　 He only learned through Simon that most of the small and medium-sized towns in the north of Mars have fallen into the hands of Grad, and the government cannot effectively solve this problem.

　　 But what if the ruins are excavated and this highly contagious virus is discovered?

　　 The government is likely to grind out the northern hemisphere by manipulating this ‘natural disaster’ method. After all, the North is very backward.

　　 Instead of dragging down the whole Mars by these poor people, it is better to obliterate it. This is indeed the right choice from a political and economic standpoint.

　　 At this moment, Simon, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said in a solemn voice: "Kent's words are unreasonable.

　　 When I was still in service on Mars, the plan for a full-scale raid on the northern hemisphere was revealed above, but Glad seemed to have reached some kind of agreement with the high-level Mars government, so the plan that would trigger a total war was finally cancelled.

　　 However, in the current zombie crisis, only the backward northern hemisphere has been the worst affected, while the more prosperous southern hemisphere has not been affected at all. This matter is strange to think about. "

　　 "No...no, shouldn't the government think about the people? How could it...how could it..." Quill couldn't talk about it.

　　 Although Quill has a high academic status, he doesn't know anything about politics. In other words, Quill is just a pure scholar and does not believe that the government will do such a dehumanizing thing.

"Not necessarily." Kent waved his hand and said, "Of course, all of this is speculation. No one knows the real reason. After all, professor, you also said that you can only find out the reason only by going to the site of the ruins, right. "

　　 "Well, I can only make some conclusions if I conduct on-site exploration." Quill also nodded and said, "However, this virus aspect has to be handed over to biologists to study."

　　--------------------------------------------

　　 Kent and his group drove to the south of Mars almost unimpeded on the highway, and even if they encountered zombies on the road, they were just scattered.

　　 Coupled with the unique geographical reasons of Mars, the northern and southern hemispheres are not blocked by oceans like the Earth, so if you drive along the highway, you can drive from the north to the south.

　　 It only took two days. Kent and his team passed the Martian equator from Phoenix at about 20°N latitude, and reached Boriska at about 10°S in only half a day.

　　 But when crossing the equator, it is not just Kent's pickup on the highway. There are more and more vehicles on the road, and the survivors are also rushing to the south of Mars.

　　 Even if the number of survivors increases, the roads are still open and will not cause congestion, because the survivors are only a few of the few.

　　Before entering the residential area in the southern hemisphere, there was a real army on the highway for interrogation, and there were also fortification walls that blocked the traffic arteries.

　　 It can be seen that all this seems to have been prepared long ago, otherwise Mars South would not have made an emergency response so quickly.

　　 Of course, Kent didn't have any conspiracy in the government. He only cared about going to Boriska City and quickly becoming a mercenary, otherwise his second brother would not be protected.

　　...

　　 Kent sat in the passenger seat, pointed his finger at AK-12 and SCAR-L, UU reading www. uukanshu.com rushed to Simon and asked, "Wait, how can I explain this to the army?"

　　 I saw the front of the car, and there was a military checkpoint not far away.

　　 Between Kent and the others and the checkpoint, there are three or four other survivors’ vehicles, lining up slowly to be checked.

　　 "Just say it's for my own use at home." Simon said lightly.

　　 At this time, Simon, who had already taken off the ghost mask, just shrugged and didn't care about the checkpoint in front.

　　 "Hello." Kent picked up the SCAR-L, knocked on the grenade launcher, and frowned: "Can civilians buy these? Plus we still have more than 300,000 cash."

　　 "..." Simon didn't know how to answer.

　　 But at this moment, Quill shook his hand and said, "Kent, you can say that it is our armed guard."

　　 "Oh?" Kent looked back at Quill when he heard the words, and asked, "Can armed guards legally carry heavy weapons?"

　　 "This...I don't know the weapon requirements of armed guards, but I can say that Oxford University hired you to protect us from going to the ruins for archaeological purposes, so that you can reasonably explain the origin of your cash." Quill suggested.

Quill and his students were very familiar with Kent and others during this period. Although they didn’t ask what happened to the bag of cash, everyone knew that the cash came from Captured by the Grad organization.

　　 As for Kent, he can also trust Quill and others because Quill, Ashley and Jyn each contributed 10 trust points to him.

　　 With the system plug-in, he can also be sure that Quill and the others are absolutely kind.

　　 "Well, that's the only way." Kent nodded in agreement. After all, there is no better reason other than this excuse.
