Zenless Zone Zero The Random Kamen Rider

Chapter 44: Chapter 44: First Glimpse



At this time, Mo Xuan accidentally discovered that he had a transmigrator talent that he hadn't yet activated. That was to bring the already broken pre-civilization technology to this world, so that this place could leave Aether and not return to a primitive mode. But the problem was, could his high school physics really connect with the technology tree of this world?

Of course, it was impossible. But it didn't matter. Mo Xuan had Build's Genius Form to rely on. When the time came, he would just shout "Daddy Genius, help me." He would just be responsible for transforming. Genius Form had a lot to consider.

Amidst his wild thoughts, the armored vehicle had already driven into the restricted area next to Hollow Zero. This was a military-managed area. Countless researchers worked here day and night to monitor the state of Hollow Zero and make responses. Even the most vicious gangs did not dare to set foot in this area. The military and the Public Security Bureau were not the same. The Bureau still knew how to reason. The military would directly kill any suspicious person who approached. They were notorious for it.

After getting out of the car, Mo Xuan mixed in with the crowd and listened to a man named Roland explain the details of this mission. Because everyone around him was a veteran, they were all used to this kind of occasion. Roland didn't say much. After giving a rundown of the mission, he opened the gate, revealing the passage to the black wall.

The restricted area couldn't possibly surround the entire Hollow Zero, so this was just a relatively stable area around it. That is, after entering, you wouldn't suddenly appear a hundred meters in the air to play bungee jumping. The military wouldn't care if you entered Hollow Zero from other places. At worst, there would just be a few more Ethereals or corpses. They were protecting their research.

The various research facilities in the restricted area were very attractive to Mo Xuan's eyes. Among them, the largest building was a cylindrical hundred-meter-high tower. Heaven knows what was hidden inside. Mo Xuan didn't want to meddle. After all, curiosity killed the cat, and the Rider too.

"Mo Xuan, are you nervous?"

Zhu Yuan came to Mo Xuan's side and said. Her attire today was the same as usual in the Public Security Bureau. She was hung with gun parts, switching to different weapons according to different battle situations, all based on her own judgment.

"A little. Captain, can you lend me your hand?"

Mo Xuan felt Zhu Yuan's concern. There were many people around, but she was partial to him. This sentiment warmed Mo Xuan's heart, and he couldn't help but become bold.

"Hand?"

Zhu Yuan looked at Mo Xuan with some strangeness, then held out her right hand. The two's right hands were held together. The special leather glove that Zhu Yuan was wearing blocked the transmission of temperature, which made Mo Xuan feel a little regretful. Yesterday, when he held the female officer's hand, she wasn't wearing gloves.

"This way, I'm not nervous anymore," Mo Xuan said with a smile.

"You, still joking at a time like this. Stay close to me after we go in. Don't get lost."

Zhu Yuan said with some helplessness. The scene of the two holding hands last night also flashed through her mind. Actually, there was no special feeling. She just felt that she had to protect this outstanding subordinate even more.

The joint clean-up team of the military and the Public Security Bureau entered Hollow Zero in an orderly manner. Actually, the feeling of entering this Hollow was about the same as an associated Hollow. There was no situation where the required Aether Adaptability was higher because it was the ancestor of the Hollows, nor was there a setting where the erosion was several times that of an associated Hollow. Otherwise, no one would dare to go.

After entering the Hollow, Mo Xuan had just recovered from the adaptation period of the space transition, and in front of him was already a dilapidated street. The Hollow would even erode inorganic matter. A Hollow like Hollow Zero, which had existed for the longest time, the buildings inside were almost in a weathered state. A touch of the hand would turn them into fine sand. Some things seemed to have a form but had actually long since turned into gravel.

Mo Xuan looked at the team around him. The number was about fifty people. Other than the Criminal Investigation Special Operations Unit, there was no obvious difference in appearance. They were all in combat suits and helmets. Their equipment was also mainly firearms. One long gun, one short gun, one melee weapon, and one medical kit. This was the standard equipment for combat personnel. They were almost all experts who had fought their way out of the Hollows. Their survival rate was extremely high. After all, those with a low survival rate had already been left behind forever.

"There's a situation at one o'clock ahead. Prepare to engage the enemy."

Zhu Yuan, as the commander of this operation, was always at the front. There was always wireless communication in her earpiece. After receiving a reminder from the command post, she raised her left hand to signal everyone to stop and watch.

'Thump, thump-thump, thump-thump-thump!'

The sound of running footsteps came. The leg structure of the Ethereals was completely crystalline, so the sound they made when they ran was very special. At this time, someone had already noticed the small stones at their feet vibrating and trembling. Even the veterans swallowed their saliva because of this situation. Their hands tightened on their weapons, waiting for the enemy to appear.

There would be no miracles in the Hollow, only endless Ethereals. Either kill them all and go home, or die here. There was no third possibility.

Mo Xuan looked in the direction Zhu Yuan had indicated. He saw a team of several hundred Ethereals rushing over. Humanoid and beast-type were mixed together. Some of the beast-type Ethereals were running fast enough to even step on the heads of the humanoid Ethereals to rush forward. The Ethereals were extremely sensitive to the scent of humans, almost to the point of hatred.

"Engage!"

Zhu Yuan let out a soft cry. She was the first to half-kneel on the ground and assemble her shotgun to start spraying Aether buckshot. This type of bullet had a large area of damage and could exert its greatest value against a group of monsters.

The other veterans also formed a line and began to fire. At this moment, Mo Xuan was surrounded by the sound of gunfire, which hurt his ears. At this time, there was nothing he could do. He could only stay by Zhu Yuan's side and play a supporting role, preventing Ethereals from ambushing from unexpected places. As a melee combatant, of course he had to protect the ranged ones.

The firepower of the veterans was fierce enough. Just a few rounds of volley fire killed all several hundred Ethereals, giving one a feeling of 'is that all?'. Hollow Zero didn't seem so great. But the veterans all knew that the several hundred Ethereals that could be kings in an associated Hollow could only be considered an appetizer in Hollow Zero. There were bigger ones to come.

'Thud, thud, thud!'

The sound of heavy footsteps came, as if stepping on everyone's heart. A huge black hand reached out from the corner of a street building, grabbed the outer wall of the building on the side, and tore it apart. The owner of the huge hand also appeared. It was a black giant about five meters tall.

Its dark skin was covered with green Aether crystals, and it had a short tail behind it. It had no head. The part that could be called its face was on its chest. Looking down from above, you could see that its neck was empty. The black hole representing the Ethereal was hidden inside. This was also a self-protection measure, hiding its weakness inside its body. Only an attack from directly above could break it.

"The Dead End Butcher. Is it the reason for the instability of Hollow Zero this time?"

A veteran said. Mo Xuan was standing next to them. From the veterans' indifferent tone, he could tell that they were already used to fighting this kind of monster.

"It seems the last will I wrote can be put to use. This guy's three consecutive lasers in its second phase are almost impossible to dodge. Comrades, good luck."

Another veteran said. His tone was full of a casualness that looked down on life and death. None of the ones who dared to enter Hollow Zero for an extermination were afraid of death. Mo Xuan actually admired these veterans very much. Compared to himself, who was protected by his daddy, they were warriors who fought against evil spirits with the bodies of mortals. Mo Xuan sincerely wanted them to live.
