Chapter 11 Bar
In the evening, in a three-story villa on the farm, there were constant sounds of drinking and talking. It was Levi who was invited to John's house for dinner.
The cannibal Hannibal also sat at the dining table, feasting on the rich steak and turkey on the table. Hannibal rolled up the thick-cut steak as big as a human face and stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it.
On the round table next to the long dining table, there were six children of different ages, watching Hannibal eat in fear and curiosity.
"Oh! Poor little guy, eat slowly, there is still a lot here!" Two plump middle-aged women who looked 90% similar were constantly putting meat on Hannibal's plate.
These two women were John's wife and sister-in-law!
That's right, John married a pair of twin sisters and enjoyed the blessing of having two wives!
John and his two wives are both believers of Mormonism, and this sect not only recognizes and advocates polygamy, but also believes that people with many wives, many children, and large families can go to a higher level of heaven!
Some of the more exaggerated Mormons even have seventy or eighty wives and two or three hundred children!
So, John only married two children, which is very restrained in Mormonism!
And because of the long-term influence of Mormon doctrine, after learning about Hannibal's "pitiful life experience", John's wives not only did not discriminate against the other party's terrible appearance, but also had a hint of maternal love.
"Roar!" Hannibal wolfed down his food while squeezing out a hideous smile to Mrs. John, and a pig-like sound came out of his throat.
Looking at the ogre's friendly smile, Mrs. John's face turned pale, "This child is really scary when he laughs!"
"This is all the credit of the government!" John put down the beer glass in his hand and, as always, found reasons to scold the authorities, "Environmental pollution causes children's genes to mutate. You see, there will definitely be more and more mutants in the future!"
Half an hour later, several people were full of wine and food, and the tableware on the table was also collected. Mrs. John took the children upstairs to prepare for bed, leaving Levi and John with a space for private communication.
"Huh!" John took a puff of tobacco made from corn cobs. "Lee, I've met some veterans in the past few years since I retired."
"You should know that many soldiers can't do anything except shooting and killing people after they retire! I'm lucky and can inherit my family's farm, so I won't starve to death, but some guys have a hard time!" John shrugged helplessly.
Levi nodded when he heard this. This is the current situation of most veterans. Because they don't have a high level of education and can only fight, they can only choose some of the lowest-level physical labor after they retire to earn a meager salary.
If they are a little less lucky and suffer from PTSD, that is, post-traumatic stress disorder, most of them can only live on the streets as beggars!
"So, I gathered a few guys with families but good skills to form a team. We took on tasks and did our old business. The money we made was pretty good. Li, do you want to join us?" John asked directly, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
As one of Levi's former instructors, John is very aware of Levi's inhuman strength. If Levi can join his team, he can even upgrade the team from third-rate to first-rate!
"Take the mission? Government mercenary?" Levi did not agree immediately, because his main task now is to hunt down abnormalities that exceed the normal human life level.
When mercenaries accept missions, not only will the time span be longer, but the degree of freedom is very low. In many cases, they will even go abroad to perform missions, and they cannot run around during the period, which naturally violates Levi's main mission.
"Government? Continue to be the executioner? How is that possible!" John snorted coldly upon hearing this, and then explained, "All members of the team live in Monroe or surrounding cities, and all have families, so most of them accept tasks nearby."
"The types of tasks are privately issued, mostly investigations, escorts or rescues of kidnapped hostages. Of course, if the team is free, they can also accept tasks on their own." John is very clear about the importance of freedom for people like Levi. "Of course, if there is a problem with the tasks accepted privately, they need to be solved by themselves, and will never cause trouble to the team."
"Of course, After all, we are not a big city, so there are not many suitable tasks. Sometimes we can only go out for a few tasks a year. "John shrugged helplessly, "But don't worry, those who can find us are not small businesses. Basically, the commission for one task is enough to support a family for half a year!"
"If Li Ni is interested, you can go with me to meet the team members tomorrow night. It just so happens that a customer has issued a task." John sent out an invitation again, but he was a little uneasy in his heart, because he knew very well that professional soldiers from special teams like Levi often looked down on mercenaries in their hearts.
Because of the long-term honor brainwashing, special forces soldiers all call themselves tigers and eagles, and regard mercenaries as flies and wild dogs with no bottom line and no appearance!
Especially unscrupulous military contractors like Blackwater are looked down upon by regular soldiers!
"No problem!" To John's surprise, Levi nodded his head quite straightforwardly. He was not brainwashed. It was all about making money, not shabby!
Moreover, John's team had a high degree of freedom, and Levi also needed the team's information channel to inquire about the news about the mutants for him.
"Huh!" The next day, Levi woke up with the nightmare again, and Levi's expression was a little ugly.
He was almost certain that there was definitely something wrong with the nightmare that had been haunting him. As a level 2 life form, Levi's brain vitality and control over the brain and nerves far exceeded that of ordinary people, and he could completely control his dreams!
But thanks to Levi's improvement in life level, although he still couldn't rest well, the impact on his body was not too great. Even a few minutes of light sleep was enough to relieve his body and mind.
"Just where should I go to inquire about this news?" Levi stood up and stretched his body, and his muscles and bones burst one after another.
Throughout the day, Levi used John's machine to plow his farm and level the weed-covered land. At around ten o'clock in the evening, John picked up Levi and drove to the town together, leaving the cannibal on the farm.
The Buffalo Bar is a bar located at the end of the town street. As the only bar in the town, even though it was close to dawn, the flow of people was still huge. There were many pheasants soliciting customers in front of the bar, or gangsters selling K powder, which looked very chaotic.
John's "Hellcat" did not stop in front of the bar, but circled to the empty and dark alley behind the bar. Two gangsters guarding the back door came up and respectfully opened the car door for John.
"This bar is actually the common property of me and my guys. It is also a layer of insurance for everyone. If anyone loses his life, the money in the bar is enough for the family to live a carefree life!" John opened the iron door and took Levi directly to the second floor.
