Compared to wandering outside, Da Xiong and Xiao Xiong preferred to find jobs and stay permanently in this base. Even if the income was lower than following Rong Qinyu, both of them were ability-users and would receive some differential treatment from the base.
After he finished his meat steamed bun, Xiao Xiong nudged his brother and asked, "Brother, now that we are here, how about we try to join the guard team? I heard that their salary is not bad."
Da Xiong finished the pumpkin soup before he asked him back, "Do you think you can get the job?"
"Why can’t we?" Xiao Xiong said unhappily.
"Look around you. With so many people eyeing the job, do you think you can win? What’s more, as a guard, you still have to do missions outside the base. If you want it, go by yourself. I will find some odd jobs inside the base."
Xiao Xiong scratched the back of his head and said, "Brother, no matter what, I’m a fire-type ability-user. I can kill zombies better than ordinary people. It will be a waste of my talent if I do a mission in the base."
Da Xiong was too lazy to bother with him and replied, "Then you can go by yourself. My ability is Earth-type, and I can join the workers to build the wall or residences."
"I already asked around, and the payment was not bad. I can earn fifty points for ten hours of work and also receive two meals. If I use my points frugally, I might be able to buy a house in several months."
Xiao Xiong was not impressed and said, "Brother, fifty points is only equal to two and a half level-one crystal cores. If we go out to kill zombies, we can earn more than that."
Da Xiong nodded and said, "You are right, but I’m not young anymore. I’m already thirty years old, and I’m tired of fighting and killing. I only want to have a stable life and find a woman who is willing to spend the rest of her life with me."
After a moment of pause, he let out a sigh and added, "Xiao Xiong, I want a family. Fame and riches are never my goal."
Since the two of them had different goals, Xiao Xiong stopped persuading his brother and finished his meal in silence.
Since he started to understand things, there were only him and his older brother. They had depended on each other for so many years.
He thought that they would continue to be like that. Unexpectedly, his brother and him still had to walk on different paths in the end.
After they were done with their meal, the two of them went to the mission hall. While Xiao Xiong applied to join the guard team, Da Xiong applied to join the worker team.
Since both of them were ability-users, Da Xiong was accepted on the spot.
As for Xiao Xiong, he had to join the training camp for three months before he was qualified to take the test. Only after he passed the test did he qualify to join the guard team.
