After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 982

At this time, the territory was still echoing with announcements.

The Crow trio was with the engineering team, finalizing the next possible aether buildings to do. Of course, they could only start when they got more materials from Otto.

They also drew the manual construction versions of the buildings, which should be the ideal practice so they weren’t too dependent on rare materials. Even if they didn’t have the special effects of Aether buildings, they should still be able to create highly-functional buildings.

However, while they were chattering and planning, they were also listening to the frequent dinging in their heads, as well as the subsequent announcements that came after.

They weren’t expecting to actually know any of the people making an announcement—the chances were too low—but they listened closely every time, just in case.

[Orz and Ouli Lopez from Nacha City is looking for friends and family who know him. Please come to the Terran Mercenary Team Base and ask for him.]

[Sean Connor from Owlish Town is looking for friends and family who know him. Please come to the Terran Mercenary Team Base and ask for him.]

[Tiara and Ton Su from Nacha City are looking for friends and family who knows them. Please come to the Village Center to ask for them.]

[Tiara and Ton Su from Nacha City are looking for friends and family who knows them. Please come to the Village Center to ask for them.]

A few more passed by, until finally—

[Ryan and Ricky Calma are looking for Sunny Calma, wherever you are right now. Please come to the Terran Mercenary Team Base as soon as you can and ask for them.]

The aforementioned young lady dropped her pen, and everyone turned to look at her with wide eyes. Silence reigned in the room even after it dropped and rolled on the floor.

Sunny didn’t even say anything anymore and she darted outside to finally meet her family!

…

After the announcements were sent out, the soldiers rented out houses for their families. They planned to settle them down first before heading to the Mercenary Team. Anyway, they already made announcements which doubled as their notification of their arrivals.

As for the other refugees who came with them all the way to Alterra—like the former lord Cassas and a few others—they would settle in the dormitories for now. They were no longer the soldier’s responsibilty, though they might still be helping them out for old times’ sake.

Each soldier with a family member rented a duplex unit for their own families, so they could have their own space. For example, Ben, Sean, and Orz each leased a duplex unit. They rented it for 3 months, which should be enough time for them to gather enough contribution points to buy the units.

The gold was especially possible because of the banking system which was vaguely introduced to them. The lady concierge said that as long as they were strong and hard-working, they had a high chance of borrowing enough money to pay down payment for a small house.

It was always the contribution point and residency status requirements that were the biggest obstacles to owning a house here.

To be honest, even now, it was hard to comprehend how a few-month-old territory in a place like Xeno could have such a thing as a banking system, but here they were, already thinking of loans...

In any case, each family marveled at the design and conveniences of their new home.

"A bathroom! Like in Bright!" Ouli yelled with a wide grin. His students had similar faces to him.

They looked like three idiots who hadn’t seen a toilet in their lives.
