When he came out of the bathroom and saw the clean water and bread Monnie had prepared for him on the table, he felt as if he had been reborn.
The farce of the tavern was resolved within five seconds of the appearance of zero, who simply threw the bald man to the ground with one hand and pointed the muzzle of the M500 at his temple, lowering the man"s high alcohol content. During the turbulent times, whether it was the power that Zero displayed that did not match his slim body, or his firearms that could kill the Savage Bear, they were all symbols of power.
Ordinary people wouldn"t be stupid enough to mess with these zeros, so after they knocked over the big man, the path to the tavern"s entrance was quickly cleared out. Zero picked up Natasha and led her to the hotel where they were staying.
The name of the hotel was No Return, a very unlucky name with a touch of irony. As a result, the hotel"s business was as ordinary as water. The third floor was high, and the only hotel that could provide fifteen rooms was reserved for the three of them. And Monnie had chosen this place because it was cheap. As for Zero, he didn"t even notice the name of the hotel.
And even if he noticed, Zero wouldn"t care.
When he arrived at Monnie"s room, he saw Lara. Lara was lying on the windowsill looking listless. However, when he saw Zero, his eyes lit up and he pounced on Zero with a happy cry. It flapped its fat wings and landed on Zero"s head. It then scratched at Zero"s hair with its little claws, as if scolding him for taking so long to return.
After taking it from his head, Zero told Monnie about its experience after falling into the crevice. It told Monnie about the unknown civilization"s information. It wasn"t that he couldn"t trust Monnie, but since Monnie didn"t have the ability to protect herself, the less she knew, the safer it would be for her.
Looking at Atasha, who occasionally burped on the bed, Zero frowned and said, "When did she learn to drink?"
Monnie covered her mouth and chuckled. "You can"t tell, I didn"t think that sister Atasha had the potential to become an alcoholic."
Su Yun was speechless.
Monnie looked at the sleeping Atissa on the bed and said, "Actually, I know how big sister Atasha is. After the first time she got drunk, she woke up and tried to find a drink to drink. I asked her why she suddenly liked to drink. She said that when she was drunk, she wouldn"t be able to see the tribesmen and the Prophet again. She was in pain, and she was sad. She just didn"t say it out loud. "
He walked over to her and took away the bottle she was still holding, then said to her, "Don"t worry, we"ll kill that guy. It"s right here! "
With that, Zero tossed the bottle into the trash can and left. That was why he didn"t notice that a tear had unknowingly flowed down her face.
He returned to his room and laid down on his bed.
He began to examine himself.
After leaving the Angry Reef City, he had experienced battles of various sizes. The most dangerous place was Phoenix City being attacked by the combined forces of Scarlet Wolf and Parkland. After entering the Death G.o.d"s Ridge, it became even more dangerous. Whether it was the battle for life and death in Death Canyon or the battle against Parkland"s a.s.sa.s.sin, these life and death battles allowed Zero to grow unceasingly.
When he left Death"s Ridge, he had already acc.u.mulated 27 points of zero evolution. It was a great fortune, but Zero was still not ready to use it. Ever since Parkland"s a.s.sa.s.sin activated that instantaneous increase in speed, Zero was certain of what he had been thinking all along.
That was the existence of advanced abilities.
He could be said to have grown up in the wilderness. He didn"t have a mentor, nor was he organized to provide information. Zero"s ability was something that had to be evolved for survival, whether it was agility enhancement or other abilities. It could be said that apart from a few Elemental Region experts, the other abilities displayed by the others were about the same.
Then, in this world of mutated abilities, was there really only one example: Agility to strengthen the abilities of these common goods?
Zero was definitely not the case.
Even if his Agility had been enhanced to the highest level, the 13th step, how fast could he be? The fastest speed known was the speed of light. If the agility of a person at the 13th step could provide the speed of light, then that person would be fast. However, Zero did not believe that a person"s body that was not strong enough could support the speed of light. In that case, the moment he entered the speed of light, his body would probably collapse due to the pressure.
So it"s a good thing that you don"t have to push an ability to its highest level, provided you have the ability to use it. After reaching the fifth stage of Agility and transforming into the Phantom avatar ability, Zero could vaguely guess that the so-called ability of strengthening Agility, Strength Strengthening or any other kind of general product should be considered basic abilities.
Above them, there should be even more powerful abilities.
If superpowers were to be regarded as trees, then the basic ability would be the roots of trees. And above them, there were also tree trunks, branches, and even fruits.
The Adept world shouldn"t be so narrow. After seeing the speed type ability that Parkland"s killers had never seen before, he was sure of that. It was the same agility enhancement, but he and Parkland had evolved into different branches, representing two completely different directions of evolution. In addition to these, there should be a third or even more branches.
As a result, the number of Disciplines was uncalculable. However, not all abilities were good. From beginning to end, Zero always believed that only abilities suited for one"s self were the best abilities. So despite having nearly thirty evolutionary points, zero has no intention of putting them into any known domain.
He planned to get rid of the killer behind him in Windmill Town and then head north. He believed that Parkland"s chauffeur would have more or less the ability to advance. After determining the direction of his own evolution, Zero decided to use these points of evolution.
What he didn"t know was that at the same time, there was another person who wanted Windmill Town to be the end of the two.
Lankey was standing straight on the road with the vulture on his back. Behind him was the outline of Windmill Town. Ahead was an endless wilderness.
Since the Great Rift Sniper, Lange had moved several hundred kilometers west along the crevice before finding a narrower section. Lan Qi used tall cedar trees to build a simple footbridge before he successfully left Death"s Ridge. Because of this, he came to Windmill Town only half a day earlier than zero.
However, he didn"t choose to enter the small town and instead roamed around in the wilderness. Although Lan Qi had personally witnessed Zero falling into the rift, he had a feeling that Zero wouldn"t die so easily for some reason. As it turned out, he was right. Not long ago, Lan Qi had seen Zero enter Windmill Town.
When Lan Qi discovered zero, he had the urge to snipe him. But in the end, he managed to keep it in check. He knew Zero would die in Windmill Town, because Sauron was on his way to Windmill Town.
Saurun had brought his own private forces with him. Although there were only a hundred of them, against an Adept at the fifth step, who wasn"t a master fighter yet, Saurun was strong enough to kill him.
In reality, if Saurun wasn"t too arrogant when fighting for the first time, then according to the conventional strategy, there was no way for Zero to survive.
But this time, Lan Qi believed he wouldn"t make the same mistake again, so the black man definitely couldn"t leave Windmill Town.
Even so, Lan Qi still wanted to make a request to Saurun.
Duel!
In any case, Lan Qi wanted to personally kill Zero!
