Chapter 347 – Return 4

Chapter 347 – Return (4)

It was already early summer, and the temperature in the wilderness during the day was as high as 50 degrees Celsius. The sun's intense ultraviolet light shone through the radiation clouds and onto the earth, making the ground covered in the radiation clouds look like a giant microwave oven in operation. The rising heat distorted the distant landscape, and a mirage also appeared in some of the special geographical settings of the wilderness.

No matter what, no living being could move in such a hot weather. The night belonged to them.

So when the sound of an engine came from the wilderness, an emperor scorpion looked strangely into the distance and then turned and dived into its cool burrow. Very quickly, several thick tires rolled across the King Scorpion's nest. As the sound faded away, the scorpion looked again, and in its grayish-brown compound eyes, the images of several cars could be seen.

Three Land Cruisers and a few light bikes drove across the wilderness. They were so obvious and lonely in this quiet land. In the bleak wilderness, they were the only moving objects.

He sat in the back of the SUV as the wind blew his hair back from his forehead. The rear seat of the car had been removed, forming a square bucket. Zero was sitting in the cart, one leg bent, the other straight and flat. He leaned against the car in a comfortable position, and his body moved in a strange rhythm against the b.u.mps and b.u.mps of the car.

More than half a month had pa.s.sed since Jodtenheim's destruction, and Yun Che had only truly awakened around ten days ago. According to Feng's words, he slept like a dead pig. And Zero knew that this sleep had made a miraculous change to his body.

Agladis not only allowed him to see her potential, she even changed his ident.i.ty a bit. Zero's body now has a complete energy collection, drive, and storage system. His heart had disappeared, replaced by a crystal-like organ. It is the source of zero energy, and it is also a reservoir. According to Agladis, this thing that was known as the Agglomerated Core Crystal had a storage capacity that was thousands of times stronger than a human heart.

If the human heart is a mini generator, then the condensed nucleus is a nuclear power station.

As for some of the organs and blood vessels, they had undergone an earth-shattering change. All of the evolution was necessary to advance towards the twelfth stage or higher. Even though it was no longer possible to be considered an orthodox human, on the road of evolution, who could be sure that when humans reached the pinnacle of evolution, they wouldn't be in their current form?

Zero didn't mind the change happening to his body. To him, power was more important than maintaining the human form. Moreover, Zero did not believe that being able to be called a human was determined by the shape of the body. To him, having a human mind was more important than having a physical model of existence.

Persistence, not giving up, is precisely the quality that humans possess, so they are good at creating miracles.

The road they were coming from was getting further and further away, and they had no idea how far they had to go before they could reach the destination. However, on this path, there were already three companions who would never be able to return.

Johnny, Ma Pei, Agatha. Zero thought of them silently in his heart and engraved these three names in his mind forever. As long as he did not forget these adorable people, they would always be able to live within the heart of zero.

This is another form of immortality.

Zero no longer felt sad, the cruelty of the new era did not leave him much time to grieve. Moreover, life was originally a cycle of life and death. Even though there were three less familiar figures in the three carriages, there was still an additional young child.

Hedwig Joe Elizabeth, the child who had not even been Johnny's student for a day, had lost her mentor forever. However, Zero had already decided in place of Johnny to teach this child. Hedwig had potential, in the future, she would become an outstanding warrior like Johnny. In fact, it even surpa.s.sed him!

On the short-haired girl, Hedwig, the figure of another child could be seen. Where was this girl with long, pale hair like the Milky Way? If at that time, Zero possessed her current strength and ident.i.ty, perhaps Moni wouldn't have to leave.

If it were not for the fact that Zero did not have enough strength, he would not have to lose so many respectable and adorable people.

I'm not strong enough.

His hand, which had been placed on the floor of the car, quietly clenched into a fist.

“Do you want something to eat?” Su who was sitting in the front pa.s.senger seat looked up and handed Zero a can of meat.

Zero smiled and said, “Thank you. I'm not hungry. You all can eat. ”

It was not a courtesy, but a fact. After Agladis's modifications, the accuracy of Zero's food intake had increased to an inhuman level. If his previous life system was only efficient, now it was a squeezed out grab for food.

After all the food entered the body, it would be squeezed clean and the substance would be dissolved into pure energy, maintaining zero activity. If a normal nutrition tube Su gave her allowed her to maintain Zero Nourishment for a full day, then right now, eating the same amount of food would produce enough energy for three to five days of use.

Moreover, the source of energy from zero was not as simple as food. The pattern of energy intake through food is relatively crude and backward.

But no matter what, when he saw Su, he was fortunate that he did not choose to sleep forever that day. Otherwise, he would lose even more!

At one in the afternoon, the convoy entered a City Ruins. The city was not big, but the facilities were impressive. From the sewage system on the outskirts of the city to the skysc.r.a.pers in the center of the city, one could clearly see the prosperity of the past. But now, it only had an incomplete sh.e.l.l.

The Gothic building was barely intact when the car pulled up outside the downtown library. Apart from the broken windows on the first floor, the building was barely damaged. Thus, the servants entered the first floor of the library to clean up. After a short burst of gunfire, the work was over. Two living corpse s and a few Brutal Rats were dragged out of the library by the servants and casually thrown into the ruins of a building on the other side of the street.

Soon, sounds of muscles tearing echoed from the shadow of the ruins.

All of this was in exchange for a safe and temporary rest for the members of the caravan.

Everyone sat in a circle on the ground, enjoying the various meat products and pure water that the servants had heated up. At the same time, they also loudly discussed Jodtenheim's battle that almost made people lose hope. After that huge battle, Berrien's body had clearly changed. He no longer proudly left the group, but sat together with the others. Although they were still smiling like before, their relations.h.i.+p was much more harmonious than before.

Looking at Berrien, Zero suddenly remembered how determined he was when he insisted on staying behind with her to stall Lilith. From that moment onwards, Zero saw Berrien as his true comrade.

As if he had noticed Zero looking at him, Berrien said coldly, “Don't look at me, I don't have a strange orientation.”

Feng who was drinking water could not control himself from spraying all over Jonah's body when he heard this. The pitiful Jonah who was holding a plate of fried calf that was covered with Feng's saliva caused Su and Hedwig, the two beautiful girls, to laugh out loud.

No wonder why it was said that a man's friends.h.i.+p was built on the wine table and on the battlefield. Indeed, it was not bad. Zero Heart said.

Just as he was about to destroy the food on his plate, Zero suddenly felt alarmed.

The next moment, there was a sharp sound of something breaking through the air. Zero bounced off the ground and darted to the window. Looking out, a missile that reflected the light of the sky soared high into the sky, then turned a corner. The tail of the missile shot out thick white smoke in a perfect arc in the air in the direction of the library.

Su Leng said, “It seems that someone does not welcome us home.”
