Ten minutes later.
After walking a long distance, Machu Philippe stopped, looked back, and found that the father and son he had just met were no longer visible in his field of vision.
However, the other person's sallow appearance still appeared clearly in his mind.
That pale face, swollen skin, weak steps...
"There is a clear difference between the other party and me. It seems that not only do the details have to be in place, but they also have to be hungry for a period of time in order to pretend to be more real and to lurk into Gray Forest City more smoothly." Ma Qiu murmured. .
Just after he finished speaking, Ma Qiu sighed: "Oh, it's really not easy. If I had known earlier, I would definitely not have chosen this job."
No, he will still choose.
As soon as Ma Qiu finished speaking, he denied it in his heart.
Yes, even if he had known it would not be easy, he would still have chosen it.
After all, he is ambitious.
He is very aware of his lack of ability, so he is willing to work harder than others to achieve a certain goal.
At first, in order to stay in school in Atlanta, I worked hard to become a temporary assistant.
Later, I used many methods to become a real assistant.
If the world continued to develop smoothly like this, he would be satisfied, because he knew that being an assistant with his own ability would be a good job, but it would be too difficult to go further.
But the world is not developing smoothly.
Three years ago, dense flames rose into the sky, and countless "suns" bloomed in the dark night. Since then, there has been no dawn on the horizon, and the world has entered a new era.
The New Era, for many people outside the Sarin, is undoubtedly a complete Black Era. They have suffered too many hardships and lived too many hard days. The father and son they met before are an example.
But for some people inside Sarin, especially some people in Atlanta and the surrounding areas, like him, it is different, it is the Light Era.
Sarin's Black Sun Plan did not target the army attacking Sarin, so it did not cause much damage to these people. At most, it was a shock.
But then, things took a turn for the worse.
The army attacking Sarin was firmly blocked outside the Atlanta area defense line. Under the attack of endless new weapons, it was difficult to move forward. When their military supplies were slowly depleted, and when their plans to retreat were disrupted by the Sarin army returning from the Misty Mountains, these armies began to surrender in an organized manner.
The first to surrender were the troops stationed in the surrounding territories, and then the troops stationed in the surrounding special garrison areas.
Sauron's direct army from Reef Castle held on the longest, but after a week, they couldn't stand it anymore.
Because all the military rations have been almost exhausted and all the war horses are almost killed, there is no point in continuing to persist.
Many regiment leaders ordered their soldiers to put down their weapons and hang out white flags.
They said that they had made enough sacrifices for the alliance - half of their soldiers were killed in the battle, and they themselves were wounded in many places. If they had hope of winning this war, they would naturally be able to hold on, but they didn't see any hope. If they continued to hold on, the whole group would die.
They have nothing to feel sorry for the Alliance. They have shed enough blood for the Alliance, and now they just want to live for themselves.
In just one day, nearly half of the Rock Castle army surrendered.
The next day, most of the remaining troops also surrendered.
However, Sauron did not surrender. He gathered the last rations and led his most elite core team. After suffering heavy casualties, he successfully broke through the blockade in the direction of the Chaotic Mountains and retreated to the territory of the Alliance.
Some people speculate that Sauron will train his army and prepare military supplies again, wait until the sky lights up, and fight back to Sarin to wash away the shame of being defeated for the first time in his career.
But the sky never lit up.
Sauron also failed to prepare military rations in the increasingly serious famine environment, let alone train a new army. In fact, even the original defeated troops were gradually unable to maintain their strength.
A year later, as the most loyal men left, Sauron disappeared and completely disappeared from everyone's sight.
Some people said that Sauron was assassinated by killers sent by Sarin, others said that Sauron hid in a secret place, and some said that Sauron died of illness in a small town.
But in any case, Sauron never appeared again.
The disappearance of Sauron was like a sign that the chaos of the entire continent had entered a new level. A large number of people moved towards the sand, and the former population centers were continuously abandoned and turned into wasteland.
After Sarin continued to absorb enough manpower, it began to expand rapidly, opening mountains and filling lakes, building new cities in locations that had been selected long ago, and quietly controlling most of the order in the entire world.
In this process, Sarin's need for middle-level manpower gradually emerged - the bottom-level manpower can provide the most basic productivity, while the high-level manpower conducts research and designs the "superstructure."
However, in addition to bottom-level manpower and high-level manpower, enough middle-level manpower is needed for coordination, management, and up-down communication to ensure the efficient and smooth operation of the entire Sarin governance system.
Many people saw the opportunity and jumped from the bottom to the middle level, and even came close to the threshold of the upper level.
Ma Qiu was a little jealous of this.
Because compared with those people, his conditions are not that bad. Maybe his ability is not good, but after all, he is an Atlanta student and is still in the first year of enrollment.
Many people who cross the status hierarchy would call him senior.
As a senior, how can you be worse than your juniors and junior girls
He didn't want to stay in school for the rest of his life, so he stepped out resolutely and prepared to give himself a try for a greater future.
In this way, after experiencing many twists and turns, he became a low-level officer in the Sarin army intelligence system.
Regarding joining the army, he thought very clearly - in order to ensure efficient management of sarin for a long time to come, and in order to cope with the various challenges that sarin is currently facing, the army will become one of the pillar forces of sarin.
Then as a member of the military, you will have many opportunities to climb up.
But, to be honest, he was afraid of death and didn't want to fight on the front line, so he joined the intelligence system. In his opinion, this should be an absolute civilian employee, and he only needs to collect some data from the rear to be promoted safely.
But after joining, he discovered that something was wrong.
It is true that the intelligence system needs personnel who can collect statistical data from behind, but it also needs intelligence officers who lurk in enemy areas and collect first-hand detailed data. In short, they are... spies.
After all, the premise of statistics is to have data first.
Unfortunately, he was appointed as an intelligence agent, responsible for collecting all kinds of intelligence, and now he is on a mission to collect intelligence about Gray Forest City.
