Uchiha of Zero Zone

The atmosphere at Scott Outpost was particularly quiet at night. The only sound in the entire outpost was the roar of the mechanical equipment.

Hole Zero in the distance still stood there. The death of Nineveh only slightly weakened the ether activity inside it, but not to the extent of reducing its size.

As for something like eliminating Void Zero, let alone now, even after a hundred years, New Eridu may not be able to succeed. Even by then, there may not even be a city called New Eridu anymore.

After returning from Hole Zero, several people, including Ies, first purified the remaining etheric energy in their bodies. Then, the examiner arranged for Zhong Yan and Ling to rest in a tent at the outpost.

Not long after, a chef walked into the tent carrying two bowls of steaming noodle soup, which was their dinner for the day.

The temperature was not too cold on summer nights, but perhaps because they were close to Cave Zero, they could always feel a vague chill.

After finishing the noodles, seeing that the examiner had not returned yet, the two men, feeling a little bored, came out of the tent and looked at Cave Zero in the distance.

"You were the one who called Uchiha over, right?" Ling suddenly turned to look at Zhong Yan and said.

She hadn't had the chance to ask before because the examiner was always nearby. But now that she was alone with Zhong Yan, she naturally had to answer the questions in her mind.

Zhong Yan did not refute this, but nodded and said, "Yes, after all, this is the first time entering Hole Zero. Who knows what accidents might happen? Now it seems that my worries are justified."

This is true. From Ling's perspective, if Uchiha had not taken action, they might all have to stay in Hollow Zero today and be buried with Anti-Aircraft Section 6.

"He is really willing to act as your thug... Zhong Yan, tell me honestly, there is no problem for you to provide him with those physical data, right?" Ling's expression turned serious in an instant.

Hearing this, Zhong Yan patted his chest and assured, "I swear, he and I are just partners, and he is definitely not using me for any human experiments that could cost him his life."

Faced with Zhong Yan's solemn answer, Ling did not say anything, but stared into his eyes.

Zhong Yan was not afraid and just looked at her.

After a while, Ling, who had a serious expression, suddenly relaxed. Then he sighed and said, "If that's the case, that's the best. I don't want you to be bullied by him like a guinea pig..."

Ling's words were full of worry for Zhong Yan. She was a person who valued friendship and didn't want to see anything happen to the people she cared about, especially Zhong Yan.

A cave robber who stays in a cave for a long time is bound to encounter some risks that may cost his life.

The source of these risks may come from the corpses, or from other cave robbers and thugs in the cave.

Especially today, when she saw that Zhong Yan dared to face Nineveh directly, she was so anxious that she almost cried. Fortunately, Uchiha came to help.

Then, the night wind gradually grew stronger.

When the biting cold began to irritate their nerves, the two people, who were only wearing short-sleeved shirts, immediately retreated back into the tent.

Not long after that, the examiner returned here with the investigation license.

When the two received the licenses from each other, it meant that they officially became investigators of Hollow Zero.

From now on, they can enter Hole Zero through formal procedures, and with their licenses, they can obtain a series of official assistance in the hole.

For example, the supply stations within the void and the stable nodes used to escape the void will be transmitted to their equipment before entering the void, thus greatly reducing the probability of accidents.

Even after an accidental death, their families will receive a staggering amount of subsidies.

Non-formal investigators do not have access to this assistance.

Overall, the treatment of Hollow Zero Investigator is still good, at least much better than those of ordinary investigators.

Zhong Yan thought that the matter was over this time, but just when he wanted to leave with Ling, the examiner suddenly called him.

"Please wait a moment!" Seeing Zhong Yan stop, the examiner quickly took out his phone from his pocket and said, "The head of the Air Defense Section 6, the Huxit who fought with Nineveh at the beginning, asked someone to bring you a few words before she left the outpost."

"She said that she wasn't joking when she invited you to join Anti-Aircraft Section 6. If you are really interested, you can contact her at any time, but don't even think about using a backdoor. Here is her contact information."

As he spoke, the examiner also took out the contact information of Air Defense Section 6.

Zhong Yan was a little surprised by this, because the person who wanted to win him over this time was not You Zhen, but Hoshimiya.

She actually wanted me to join Anti-Aircraft Section 6?

I was only clearing out some skeleton bees and strangler vines during the battle with Nineveh. Such performance should not be enough to make them take me seriously.

Zhong Yan did not delve into the reason behind this. Instead, he shook his head after a moment of silence and said, "I've said it before in the void. I have no intention of joining them. As for the contact information... forget it."

After saying that, Zhong Yan took Ling's hand and walked quickly towards the exit of the outpost.

The examiner saw that the other party completely ignored the good intentions of Section 6 and scratched his head in confusion.

"This little guy... doesn't he know what it means to join Anti-Aircraft Section 6? That's the dream of every investigator."

......

Led by the soldiers at the outpost, the two men left Scott Outpost, found their originally parked vehicle in a parking lot not far from the outpost, and then drove back.

Ling did not return to Liufen Street immediately, but first sent Zhong Yan back to Jiufen Street. She drove all the way to his doorstep before she finally let Zhong Yan get off the car.

Zhong Yan expressed his gratitude generously for such a thoughtful gesture.

After waving goodbye, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have to purchase some daily necessities.

Originally, this kind of thing could be left to Xiao Pei, but it is too late now. The Bangbu wandering on the streets is likely to be kidnapped by Bangbu dealers.

So after much thought, he finally decided to go to the supermarket in person.

This is not because it is worried that Xiao Pei will be kidnapped by people with bad intentions, but because it is afraid that it will be too heavy-handed and accidentally kill those people with bad intentions.

As a Bomb dedicated to the Ninja Village, Xiaopei's combat power is comparable to those of well-trained soldiers. However, most of the time, it acts as a household robot, so it has no chance to take action.

Don’t look down on Zhong Yan’s pet!
