Steel steam and flame

During the long journey, she was thinking about the exam. Xicia was really nervous, and it showed on her face. When she took a break or went to a town she passed for lunch or dinner, Korkwa and others would comfort her and tell her not to worry at all.

"Mr. Cassia is here." The words of comfort are absolutely inseparable from Cassia. In less than a day, Sisia has become accustomed to it. But from the depths of her own heart, self-comfort or passive reassurance cannot be separated from Cassia.

Korkvar and others can fight against the alliance monsters head-on, but they are not absolutely sure. To sum up, whether it is Korkwa or Narko, who is also secretly heading to the gathering place, their strength is at a great disadvantage compared with the alliance monsters. The chance of success if you want to hunt a certain alliance monster alone is less than two levels.

Because they were aware of this situation, both of them chose to remain silent after the sacrificial ceremony and did their own thing silently. Hunting itself does not mean you will be successful if you are ready. The whole process is full of uncertainty.

Now, in Korkva's perception, Cassia can eliminate this certainty and completely characterize the nature of hunting as hunting, rather than the phrase "hunters often appear in the form of prey" that everyone often ridicules.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the limousine carrying several people finally arrived in a city with abundant lights. This is already a small country bordering the empire. Although it is not the capital, it is also a prosperous area in another sense. The liveliness at night also matches the prosperous area.

Amidst the intermittent sound of horns, the limousine turned into a parking lot. After getting dressed, a few people took their few luggage and walked hundreds of meters to the nearest hotel to stay. After each of them got a portable pistol and a tactical knife, they did not stay in the hotel room for too long. Instead, they quickly integrated into the city like a group of young people who like night life.

Korkova, Monica and Lina are rushing to meet Narko and the team that has arrived to discuss the next step of the operation. Sisia, on the other hand, had a separate mission and was separated from them and acted alone.

"Flare gun." When they separated, Monica carefully gave it to Sisia, "This seems to be a trade transit city in the ordinary world, but due to a series of events on the empire's border, many surgeons were mixed in. Inside, the ratio is much higher than in other cities.”

"In addition to the teams that have already arrived, the teams that collect information, and the teams that have set up stopping points here in advance, have been among them for a month or two. Compared to the population base of this city, they are negligible. But sometimes, It can provide a little help.”

Sisia expressed her gratitude, put the flare gun into her small bag, and then walked to the nearest area of ​​​​the city. It was information from two days ago, provided by Korkvar. The shadow of the improved experimental subject was seen there. Although the experimental subject zero was not actually seen, it was the most likely place to find him.

As Zero is a well-known person, if you want to obtain his traces, most of the time it depends on whether he is willing to take the initiative to reveal it.

Sisia's mood was not stable. As she walked on the road, she automatically ignored the pedestrians around her. In her heart, she regretted why she took the initiative to ask for information about No. 0. Even if it wasn't much, it would still vividly create an impression of No. 0 in her head.

She only needs to know that she has killed several alliance monsters and can compete with the top dragon knights in the three stages and has an absolute advantage. The closer she gets to the area in the intelligence, the more tension builds up. .

She kept thinking about Cassia's words, "Number Zero is a good person. He considers himself a knight and is full of chivalry spirit." But the words spoken by Korkvar and the others began to interfere with her judgment at this moment.

She knew that the source of information in the hands of Korkvar and others was black market intelligence dealers, and she understood that what black market intelligence dealers are best at is processing information so that they can sell it at a better price. Therefore, the content described in the intelligence is often inconsistent with reality. In her spiritual world, there was clearly a living person who had been persecuted by black market intelligence agents, but she still couldn't get around it emotionally.

After more than twenty minutes of walking, a street separated the lights and lively atmosphere. The buildings on the other side were dimmer in Xixia's eyes. The pedestrians here seemed to have changed, as if they were wrapped in some invisible film.

As the road between buildings turned, Sisia was sure that she had arrived at the designated area for a few minutes, and when she would finish the area in a little more time, Kasia's voice sounded.

"On the left, do you see that residential building with lights on?" Xicia immediately turned her head and looked over. A row of neat windows were all lit up. When she wanted to speak, she felt something originating from her, pointing to the side and escaping in a natural direction. It was so complete after appearing in an instant that her feelings felt more like an illusion.

"Ahead is the entrance to this residential building. After turning left, there is a small green area. Go there. It already knows that someone is coming and will pass by soon."

"Psychic perception?" Sissia asked, although she did not observe anything, only a window that should be lit up at night.

"A kind of... induction. Maybe you can have it later. But it's not a good thing." Cassia replied, exhaling in a soothing voice. In the past few days, all his energy was spent on analyzing the energy light flow network without rest, which made him feel tired. However, when the analysis level reaches about 95%, a little fatigue is completely acceptable for this result.

"Is there really no problem?" Sisia couldn't help asking again at this time, "It seems to be a cold-blooded and violent monster."

"That's a wonderful coincidence. That's how they described me." Cassia replied. Sicia could only smack her lips.

The speechless Xicia could only walk forward, and soon saw the door Cassia mentioned. After entering, she turned left and was surrounded by evergreen trees. After a few steps, she didn't notice anything perceptually. Only when her eyes actually saw it, did she realize that there was a man sitting on a bench under the dim light of the street lights in front of her. The man closed most of the book he had read, put it aside, and nodded politely to himself.

"Good evening, miss."

Xicia had imagined the scene when she saw Zero. She knew that she would definitely be nervous, but she did not expect that the level would be so low. After thinking for a few seconds, she finally understood. She felt no pressure, no heart-pressing tension, all because she could not feel anything from the man in front of her. It was as if this man was also a part of the bench, a natural state.

"No. Zero..., Mr. Zero?" Xicia responded politely.

No. 0 nodded and stood up: "It seems that you came here specifically to find me. What's the matter?"

"By the way, what should I call you?" No. 0 said apologetically, "Of course, calling you Mr. Cassia is also feasible. But I think, you or him, you don't want this name to ring out at this time. "
