There was an unwritten rule in the wilderness.

When a hunter or mercenary performs an official mission, unless they are killed in battle during the mission, the official has to provide timely assistance if they are injured and have specific coordinates. This was due to the protection of outstanding talents. Anyone who could be officially assigned to a mission would not be an ordinary person. In troubled times, talents were the greatest asset, and no base or company was willing to sacrifice a talent like that. Unless, of course, there was a hostile relationship between the two.

Of course, there was no hostility between Phoenix City and Zero City. Strictly speaking, Zero was still in the quest period even before he returned to the city. Moreover, he shot out the distress signal bomb personally handed to him by George. Regardless of the reason, Phoenix City's reinforcements would definitely arrive quickly.

Of course, such a rescue was not completely unconditional.

The rescued mercenary hunter needed to unconditionally agree to at least one official quest from the rescuer within a year. As long as you're not dead, wherever you are, you'll be on your way as soon as the rescuers ask you. In turbulent times, there was no such thing as a free lunch.

Zero naturally knew what it meant to fire a signal bomb, but compared to his life, Zero naturally chose the latter.

Lan Qi could only silently curse when he saw the flare that dragged the flaming tail up into the night sky.

When Lan Qi ordered the Scarlet Wolf to intercept zero and create a sniper chance for him, he had already planned on killing zero. At the same time, he had also sent the Scarlet Wolf to hell. It was just that he had underestimated the sensitivity of Zero to danger, as well as his ability to avoid danger. Therefore, the sniper attack that Lance had thought would hit him was not able to pierce through his heart as he had expected, and was sent straight into Scarlet Wolf's head.

It could be said that this sniper attack was only half successful.

As Zero fell, it was difficult for Lan Qi to fire another shot from two thousand meters away in the middle of the night. But the flare gave him a chance, and it also gave him a choice.

The choice to kill Zero He and offend Phoenix City.

Even if Lange was a member of Parkland, if there was a direct confrontation during Phoenix City's rescue operation, Parkland could hand him over to avoid offending a freshman military city like Phoenix City. If it were in the past, Lan Qi would have immediately retreated when he saw the signal detonator.

But Zero was his sworn enemy. Therefore, after a moment of hesitation, Lan Qi chose to fire another shot.

The Mad Vultures' muzzle was quickly adjusted. Through the sight and enhanced vision, Lan Qi once again locked onto the position of zero. This time, he aimed at the enemy's head. Zero was already unconscious, so Lan Qi's shot was confident. However, just as he was about to press the trigger, an indescribable feeling of danger immediately spread throughout his body.

The snipers of the wilderness had a sense of danger, just like wild beasts. Lan Qi was no exception. This time, the White-headed Eagle had no choice but to hesitate. The chances of killing Zero were not only this time, but his life was definitely limited to one. Lan Qi didn't want to risk his life for revenge. He quickly took his sniper rifle and withdrew from the sniper's position.

Lan Qi had just finished hiding behind a large rock in the wilderness when he discovered a strange shriek flying over the place where the sniper had ambushed them. Angele laid down on the ground and sprinkled some light yellow powder on the ground. The powder was able to conceal his breath and release a smell similar to that of earth. As long as they didn't search too closely, even mutated beasts with sensitive noses wouldn't be able to separate Lan Qi from other regions.

The White-headed Eagle lay on the ground, slightly raising its head to look at the sky. A strange creature was circling above the sniper position. From afar, it looked like a humanoid mutated beast. However, Lan Qi had never seen the Lion's Head Eagle Wings before. This mutated beast circled for a few times before flying in the direction of Phoenix City.

After it left, the army of Phoenix City had already found the point where they were unconscious.

Zero had a weird dream.

In the dream, he sat alone on the big wheel in the amusement park. Through the window of the Ferris Wheel seat, Zero saw that in the distant sky, there was first a continuous crimson cloud, and then a tongue of fire broke through the clouds, dragging a mighty flame tail as it smashed towards the ground. In the blink of an eye, the earth turned into a sea of fire and countless people turned into charcoal.

The buildings were collapsing, the ground was cracking, and people were screaming .. The earth is no longer a happy place to live; it has become a hell of death.

Zero helplessly sat on the Ferris Wheel and watched as the steel frame of the Ferris Wheel was melted before bringing him along and smashing towards the ground that had turned into a sea of fire.

The scene changed again.

Then he saw that beautiful figure again, chasing the wind like a happy spirit in a field of flowers. Zero still couldn't see her clearly, and when he tried to get closer, she stopped.

Turning around, she faced him.

The blurred face became clear, and she became Leah.

"Zero, save me!"

Leah cried, and then her face changed again, and Hans's ghostly face appeared in Zero's eyes.

The Han Dynasty cultivator's face and the body of the young girl formed a bizarre and strange scene.

With a loud shout, the scene before his eyes disappeared completely. Then there were all sorts of strange sounds, human voices yelling, and instruments working. All he could see was a blurry figure of light. Within that figure of light, many distorted figures were moving about. After a slight numbing sensation passed through his body, Zero once again fell unconscious.

However, this time, he did not have any strange dreams.

When he opened his eyes again, he just happened to see Phoenix City's red clouds reflected in the sky outside the window.

"Zero, you're awake?"

A childish yet pleasantly surprised voice rang in his ears.

The voice still came from very far away, sounding hollow and long. After a while, Zero finally got used to the body that was gradually waking up from its deep sleep. He turned and saw Monnie.

On Monnie's head, Lara was pressing down on her silver hair. The little beast seemed to be in good spirits. When it saw Zero, it let out a happy cry and was about to smash onto Zero's body. However, she was caught by Mony while she was in the air. Thus, Lara could only look at the young girl with a wronged expression.

"How many days have I slept?" Zero asked and realized that his voice was hoarse like never before.

Mony's eyes were slightly red. She tried her best to force a smile on her face and said, "Not much. It's only for two or three days."

"Strictly speaking, 78 hours, lucky boy."

A large figure appeared on the other side of Zero. It was George, the officer. George did not look well, and the deep dark circles around his face suggested that he had not been resting well recently. The densely packed stubble on his chin made him look even more haggard.

George threw a bill onto Zero's chest. "It's good to see you're not dead, or this bill will be gone. Listen, buddy, you don't even know how lucky you are. When we found you, you were dying. "Damn it, no matter who it is, if there's an extra hole in their chest, they won't be able to survive. However, you managed to survive. I have to say, it's a miracle!"

With a smile, he used his numb hands to pick up the bill and look at it. Immediately, his expression changed.

On the bill, the number "8230" was there. He hadn't expected that after sleeping for three days, he had used up almost all of his savings. He could not help but feel a bitter taste in his mouth. He was about to become a negative asset, even though the interest on Parkland had not yet been earned.

Seeing the change in Zero's expression, George couldn't help but laugh out loud and snatch away the bill. He then rolled them into a ball and threw them into the trash can.

Zero looked at him in confusion.

George pointed at his body: "It's alright, all the expenses for saving you have been paid by your body."

Su Li's face changed.

George laughed: "Don't worry. It's not like any pervert has set his eyes on your body." Although your body is indeed beautiful, even more beautiful than some women. Well, what I'm trying to say is that the lunatics at the military hospital are very interested in your physical stats. They say that as long as you cooperate with the examination during the hospitalization, not only will the expenses be waived, but you will also be paid extra when you leave the hospital. I say, man, you're lucky. "

Zero didn't think so. He didn't want his body to attract any attention. However, the unconscious him, it seemed that some abnormalities of his body had successfully been noticed by the doctors in Phoenix City, and he had been listed as a research subject without permission. Zero had decided to destroy all the relevant data before he left.

"I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving first." George clapped his hands on Ling Tian and said, "Concentrate on recuperating. In Phoenix City, no one dares to hurt you. I still have this little bit of confidence."

George got up and gave Monnie a lewd smile. Monnie was not afraid, but she smiled at him charmingly. George froze, then the officer shook his head and left the room.

Although George was reassuring, how could Zero take it easy. Since Parkland had made his move, it must have happened one after another. He decided to leave the hospital and to leave Phoenix as soon as possible. He didn't like this kind of passive situation. On the contrary, he wanted to kill Parkland's killer in turn. If he wanted to do this, he would have to pull him to his home ground.

The home ground of zero was the wilderness!

George was on his way back to the command post.

The situation in Phoenix City wasn't too good, and the operation of the lair had ultimately failed to finish. On that day, when Brian was killed, Finli Wolf couldn't organize an effective counterattack, so he was beaten into a mess by Phoenix City's army.

However, at the end of the King's Slaying Operation, something went wrong. It was unknown where the evolved form of the Finry Wolf came from, but it killed three members of the King's Slaying Team in one go. Of the remaining three, Sario was still missing. As for the difference, it was still lying in the hospital.

The higher-ups of Phoenix City attached great importance to this evolved werewolf. Since he did not know that the first person to come into contact with the werewolf was actually zero, Phoenix City was now focusing all of its attention on the survivor, the Shrewd.

The footman is now in the army command post, under special guard. Phoenix City hoped to find out more about the werewolves through the outpost, but it seemed like this method would not work, because the outpost was insane!
