He had never thought that one day he would be carrying a woman on his shoulder. Especially since the other party was a beautiful woman. From this angle, it was possible to see the almost perfect side of Valkyrie"s face. Looking down, it was a pair of peaks that was partially covered by the alloy mail. No matter how he looked at it, this was a rare pleasure to enjoy. Unfortunately, Zero only wanted to lie down and rest right now.
At the end of the short journey, when he was carried all the way to the off-road SUV that was parked horizontally at the end of the street, Zero was directly thrown onto the ground by the blue-haired beauty. His expression changed. Even if all the bones in his body seemed to be about to break down, he still didn"t make a sound.
Valkyrie suddenly kicked him, sending him flying more than three meters away. Strangely enough, instead of feeling any pain, a gentle energy entered his body through the Valkyrie"s kick and quickly healed the wounds on his body, as well as the energy left inside him by the neutralizing wind blades.
A moment later, Zero regained some strength. So he could stand up and watch as Valkyrie removed a silver suitcase from the car, opened it, and threw it on the ground. She herself deftly removed her alloy mail and folded it up and put it in her suitcase. When the last piece of armor was put away, Valkyrie wore only a tight black battle uniform.
The tactical uniform outlined the perfect curve of her body. Even with the indifference at zero, the sight made her throat feel hot. She picked up a denim jacket from the pa.s.senger seat, put it on, and walked over to Zero.
Zero"s instinct told him to stay away from this dangerous woman. From the way she could easily push off Levin and make the high-ranked Blood Cavalry leave in a dejected manner, this woman was definitely a ferocious female beast wearing a beautiful leather coat. He didn"t think that Zero would be a match for this woman even if he was at his peak condition. Fortunately, the woman did not seem hostile to him. Otherwise, the last bullet left in Colt would have been aimed at his head.
"Alright, it"s time for us to talk." Valkyrie pulled Zero up and asked, "Soldier, have you never heard of the Heroic Spirit Hall?"
"The palace created by the G.o.d Odin?" Zero answered honestly.
"You also said that it was only a myth." "I mean in this day and age, the Hall of Heroic Spirits is an organization that has a hostile relations.h.i.+p with the Dark Council," he said impatiently. Although for some reason we are both in a state of truce, the war will happen one day. I, on the other hand, am Valkyrie of the Twelve Sovereigns" Hall of the Hall of Heroic Spirits. Of course, this is just a code name. "
Zero slightly shook his head. The Dark Council was considered a giant by any city or base along the coastline. And now, there was another Hall of Heroic Spirits. However, this world was still very vast, and many things and powers were hidden in the darkness. Whether it is the Dark Council or the Heroic Spirit Hall, they are but the tip of the iceberg in this world.
More importantly, he had a vague idea of the purpose of this visit.
Judging from how she was able to repel a high level Blood Cavalry, and was also known as the Norse legend"s Valkyrie, the woman in front of him was clearly of great background. Zero was certain that she must be a senior member of the Hall of Heroic Spirits, so the purpose of Valkyrie"s visit was obvious.
"You want me to join the Heroic Spirit Palace?" Zero asked.
Valkyrie nodded. "At least you"re not too stupid. Our Heroic Spirit Hall is just like the legends said, we will search the continent for warriors with great potential and invite them to join us. I have read from your information that you have the potential to develop into a high-level esper, and that you are at odds with the Dark Council. In any case, you meet the criteria for accepting invitations. "Therefore, I am solemnly inviting you here. I hope that you can join our organisation!"
"And if I refuse?" Zero Test asked.
"You know the answer, why do you ask?" Varkie said from the inside with no expression on his face.
A wry smile appeared on his face. If he didn"t use it, what other answer could he come up with other than death?
"Well, this is an invitation I can"t refuse. But before that, I hope you"ll give me some time to do some personal work. "
Valkyrie raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Soldier, I hope you understand that I don"t have much time. I can save your life at the hands of the Ninth Knight, but that doesn"t mean I have time to waste on Parkland and your personal affairs. In fact, your trip to the North was an act of complete arrogance and arrogance. Although Parkland is only an outer company of the Dark Council, their strength is not limited to just one impulsive young family heir. In this company, there are at least three powerhouses of the seventh step, and their strength is enough to make you unable to return. "
"Believe me, without strong power backing you up, you won"t be able to do anything. As for you, right now, you"re far from being considered strong. " The War G.o.ddess said to Zero calmly.
Zero clenched his fist, then slowly loosened it. He nodded and said, "Alright, I"ll go with you!"
Valkyrie nodded to herself. In her opinion at least zero was not so arrogant as to lose sight of his own weakness. If even he could not see it clearly, then how would he become strong?
"I know you want to ask Parkland for some interest. However, our Heroic Spirit Hall can also provide some loans. It"s not much, but it"s enough to be the starting point for your rebirth plan. "Don"t look at me like that. Since I"m going to recruit you, I naturally have to have all of your information." Valkyrie added: "However, we only offer credit to valuable members. If you want to get it, you have to prove your worth first. "
"I will prove it to you."
"This is for the best. So now, say goodbye to your friend. I"ll give you ten minutes. " He jumped into the SUV.
"Zero?"
Monnie"s voice rang out, and she and Natasha appeared on the other side of the street. But Gillotine did not follow, only Lara on Monnie"s body. He walked over to them. Monnie was unhurt except for a look of panic. As for Atisa, the African woman only suffered some minor injuries. She did not seem to be injured at all.
In fact, after Laine appeared, Raz"s troops had retreated. If not, Atasha would have suffered more than just a few minor injuries.
Looking at the captivating figure on the SUV, Monnie whispered, "Who is she?"
Zero smiled bitterly and said, "That person is my boss now. For some reason, I have to leave with her for a period of time. So, my friends, we"ll probably have to part here. "
He looked at Mony and said apologetically, "It looks like I won"t be able to fulfill my promise to you, but I can write a letter and bring you back to Raging Reef City. I think Victor and Masters will be willing to keep my promise for me. "
Regarding this, Zero was confident. Because of his wife, and because he had liked Monnie before, the doctor would not s.h.i.+rk. As for Masters, this local snake was more like a speculator. As long as he revealed a single detail about himself and the Hall of Heroic Spirits, Masters would definitely ensure Monnie"s safety in the Vengeance Reef City.
After all, zero was clearly more valuable than it had been before.
However, to his surprise, Monnie actually shook her head and refused, "No, no. Do what you have to do. Don"t worry about me. I will take care of myself, and I will be protected by the Gillotine. "
"Alright then." Not to mention that Monnie had the right to choose her own destiny.
He then looked at Atasha, who said lightly, "I will go back to the Death Reaper Mountain, the Shapes.h.i.+fters will not disappear just like that!"
Zero nodded and said, "Let"s split up here. Maybe we can meet again one day."
Seeing that Zero was about to leave, Lara shot a look of reluctance at Monnie and was about to jump onto Zero"s shoulder. Instead, Zero put out his hand and held it down. He said, "You should follow Monnie. The place I"m going to isn"t suitable for you."
Zero knew very well that the Heroic Spirit Hall was not some tourist place. Lara thought it would be better to follow Monnie. Perhaps when Lara grew up, she would be able to establish her own tribe.
Lala wriggled her body in protest, but at Zero"s insistence, the little beast finally chose to listen to him. Monnie hugged Lara and patted her round body. "Don"t worry, I"ll take good care of her."
Zero nodded and didn"t say anything else. He turned and strode toward the SUV with Colt on his back. The Heroic Spirit Hall would be a turning point for him. He did not know what awaited him in the future, but Zero did not hesitate. Valkyrie and Levin had shown him another world, the world of the strong!
He also knew that, as Valkyrie had said, he was not yet strong. Even a normal tyc.o.o.n like Parkland, once they mobilized their core force, would not be something the current Zero could go against. At that time, not to mention asking Parkland for interest, even self-preservation was a problem.
If he wanted to have a place in this turbulent era, if he wanted the world to hear his own voice, then there was no other way but to become stronger. Zero knows this, so he does not hesitate or pause on the road to the peak of power. Only by doing this could he hope to catch up with strong people like Laine and Vargery, and even surpa.s.s them!
Zero jumped into the SUV, and Valkyrie looked at him without saying anything. She started the engine and stepped on the accelerator. Thus, the jeep turned around and headed for the city exit. From the beginning to the end, Zero had never turned back. From the moment he had agreed to Varkiri"s entry into the Heroic Spirit Hall, it was destined that this would be a path he would never be able to turn back.
The Land Cruiser quickly drove out of the Shadow Capital. It followed the road and drove out of the mountain range, then turned around and headed west.
Direction, future!
