Chapter 13 - Yan Fu

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Because the Silver Tree City's battle record, Zero's position in the base had been improved, so they were given an independent suite. Although there were only two rooms in the small room, it was already a luxury in the base. After thanking Lea for his guidance, the beautiful girl took her leave. Zero looked at his new home and felt touched.

He could no longer remember his own past. Whenever Zero tried to remember, the pain in his central nervous system was so intense that he had to give up. And now, the only thing that could help him find his past was that hibernation chamber. That was the only clue he had right now. However, Zero knew that the hibernation chamber was already kept by Old Jack. Unless Zero continued to raise his status in the base, Old Jack would not easily spit out the technology from the old era.

No matter what era it was, power was the most basic form of protection. Without strength, he could only be trampled on like an ant. This point, Zero was very clear.

He took the electronic card that Lea gave him and left the house, walking towards the direction of the weapon warehouse. zero. There were not many 50 warheads left, so he had already obtained 20 bullets from Sheriff Smith, leaving him with only 7 remaining. This number was not enough for a zero round shot. Moreover, he needed to familiarize himself with the M500's recoil. This consciousness required a lot of practice.

Practice required a large amount of bullets.

Walking along the corridor of the living quarters, he met many people from the base. It was work time, and most of the people who stayed in the living quarters were women. The way they looked at Zero was a bit strange. These women were all of different ages and had different appearances, but all of them, without exception, saw the 'invitation' in their eyes. There were many married women among them, but they did not try to hide their presence. In this turbulent era, strength was everything.

That was proportional to the value of the zero. The greater the zero's strength, the more money, wealth and status one would receive. And women were exactly one type of wealth.

It was just that Zero was not interested in the invitation. Of course, he was not a Puritan, nor was he opposed to the idea of having fun in the nick of time. Sometimes, after a fierce battle, there was a need for some sort of pleasure in order to quell the stimulation that the bloody battles brought to the nerves. It was just that Zero seemed to have a strong self-control over his own desires. For him right now, the Lover of the Water was far less important than increasing his strength.

Under everyone's disappointed gazes, Zero directly flew away.

At the door of the armory, Zero accidentally met Zog. When the base's chief soldier saw Zero, he laughed out loud and walked over, then affectionately patted his shoulder. He frowned, as though he was not used to Zog's enthusiasm, but did not voice any objections.

Zog seemed to be accustomed to Zero's apathy, and did not put Zero's expression in his eyes at all. He laughed loudly: "What, coming to the armory the moment you wake up? That's not good. You have to learn to relax. How about I buy you a drink at the bar? You probably don't know that the most beautiful waitress in the bar, Rita, is extremely interested in you. You might be able to sleep in her bed tonight. That is the dream of many men in the base. "

"Including you?"

"Including me!"

He didn't believe it. With Zog's position as the general leader of the soldiers, if he had to sleep with a woman, and with it being a female attendant, how could she reject him?

Zog knew what he was thinking and explained, "This is Old Jack's rule. The base did not object to the love of men and women, but everything had to be willing on both sides. If anyone tries to force their way in, they will be thrown out of the base the moment they are discovered. That is a death worse than death, so no one would dare to violate this rule. "

Su Ling thought of Lea, maybe that was the old man's way of protecting her granddaughter.

"Let's go, fellow. Believe me, Rita's long legs guarantee that you will never return." Zog patted Ling Tian's shoulder, and said while smiling.

Zero shook his head and said, "I'm not free."

With that, he gently pushed Zog away and went into the armory himself.

Looking at Ling Yun's back, Zog shook his head: "That guy who doesn't know how to enjoy himself at the moment is truly boring."

Half an hour later, Zero returned to his room.

He returned empty-handed.

Not in the armory. This particular bullet, the head of the armory had told him, might have to be specially ordered in the large company's military district if it was needed. After all, in this era, there weren't many people who still used revolver with large caliber like the M500. Therefore, it was impossible to mass produce the bullets, and it was quite expensive to craft them by hand. Zero only had 150 yuan on him, he could probably only buy 50 rounds of bullets.

Thinking of this, Zero poured out the coin from his purse. These coins were made of silver. In turbulent times, paper money could no longer be used. This was something one could only imagine. Only metals like gold and silver, which had a circulating value in any era, could be used as currency. Bullets, firearms, and other materials could also be used as semi-currency, except that they were not as constant in terms of value as gold and silver.

Of course, big companies and chauffeurs might also develop their own credit facilities, but it was easy to guess with their toes that once these things left the company's base or branch offices, they would be nothing more than scrap paper, so they were far less practical than coins made of gold and silver.

Put all your belongings under the pillow and go to sleep. The job of protecting Lea would only officially begin tomorrow, with a day's worth of precious resting time. He did not want to waste his energy on a banquet or dealing with women. Just like that, he fell into a deep sleep.

He had that dream again.

In the dream, the beautiful figure was drifting about like the reflection of a flower in a mirror. Whenever he tried to hold her hand, the dream would vanish like a bubble. And then it happened again, over and over again.

After an unknown period of time, Zero suddenly woke up.

There was someone outside.

This was what his intuition told him. Soon after, knocking sounds could be heard at the same time. Since people could knock on the door, it meant that they were not enemies. But Zero had always been careful, so he hid behind him with the Fine Steel Dagger and opened the door.

Outside was a woman reeking of alcohol.

He was older than Lea, but not by much. It looked to be around zero, but had a face that was even more mature than Lea. The woman's lips were dyed an exaggerated purple, giving off an aura of dust and wind. She was dressed as a waiter. She wore a white blouse with a flower collar, and a black dress that fit her well. Under the skirt, there were long, straight legs, and a pair of 10cm high shoes. The woman was almost zero in height.

She reached out her hand to push Zero towards the door, and while shaking off her high heels she said: "I heard from Zog that you aren't interested in me. But I'm interested in you. Well, let me sleep with you tonight. Or are you an incompetent wimp? "

Ye Zichen frowned. Women meant trouble. Drunk women were a bigger problem.

The woman pushed him to the side of the bed as he backed away. She pushed him down hard on the bed and then sat on top of him in excitement. Her purple lips stuck out her sharp tongue. She gently licked Zero's face and said, "You smell really good. You smell much better than those stinking men."

However, a dagger suddenly appeared at the side of her neck.

"Get out!" He frowned, his face ashen. Beads of sweat dripped down from his forehead, as if he was enduring some sort of pain.

The woman did not know that Zero was trying very hard to control his body, or else the dagger would not have been placed on her neck, but would have stabbed into her body and sliced her limbs into pieces.

A loud voice kept shouting in his head: Kill her! Eat her! Kill her! Eat her!

Shut up!

Zero let out a loud roar in his consciousness. Only then did he gradually suppress his voice. Then, to the woman's incredulous eyes, he forced her out of the room with his dagger, finally throwing out his clothes and heels before slamming the door.

Sitting down by the door, Zero closed his eyes in pain. His head felt like it was being roasted by fire, hot and painful.

Outside, a woman's disgruntled voice sounded: "Zero, I will definitely find a chance to fuck you! Remember my name, I am Rita! "

Zero roared, as if trying to force the pain out of his body, and punched the ground.

With a bang, Zero's fist caused the ground to groan, and a circular pattern of cracks to spread outwards. Zero's pain lessened but he was still staring at the scene in a daze. He could not remember having such great strength that could shatter the concrete floor with a single punch!

Rita bitterly put on her clothes, her eyes still spitting fire, she kicked the door twice, turning to leave.

However, just as she turned around, a black shadow swept over and struck her in the forehead. Rita's body shook violently and he fainted. A man's voice was heard as her body fell into a pair of rough palms, "Scoundrel, since they won't do anything to you, why don't I take advantage of them!"
