This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Map drawing was one of the most common tasks. Naturally, this needs to be a high precision of the description can not be done by hand. In fact, there was one more piece of equipment on Zero's left wrist. It was a multi-functional tactical wrist watch that was rented in the hall of the Remot Union. Other than having the relevant functions such as the time of the wrist watch, the compass, the temperature test, and the date of the wrist watch. It also had another function, which was the holographic scanner.

As long as this function was turned on, the location where Zero had walked past would appear on the base's map plotter via the computer connected to the base. Because each base's computers had their own security identification systems, tactical wrist watch like them were not common. Normally, after a mercenary accepted a task to draw a map, they would have to rent a wrist watch from the union.

The's own Tactical wrist watch were relatively simpler, they had once viciously supplemented the knowledge of the new era in their time of leisure. From what he knew, wrist watch s that were developed by big companies like the Parkland had holographic talking capabilities. If it was combined with electronic gloves, it could be used as a holographic computer.

And now, with Zero, he walked out of the library. In the Remot's base, the western part of the Lampitz University City had already completed the drawing of the floor plan and the three-dimensional map on the plotter.

He found a spot in the ruins and sat down. He hadn't closed his eyes or eaten for two days. His stamina had been depleted beyond his imagination, and now he needed to replenish it. After drinking 200 ml of Level 2 Purified Water and a tube of Nutrient Su, Zero relaxed his body, in order to speed up the decomposition of the food and turn it into energy for movement. His body was resting, but Zero's head was still at work.

In these two days, he hadn't met with any of the other three mercenaries. This area was big enough for University City. However, as the number of unknown areas dwindled, it was only a matter of time before both sides met. There were three of them, and with the exception of the expressionless Chinese woman, the other two men were hostile. Especially that Element Domain Capable, when he left, Zero could clearly feel the killing intent directed at him.

The power of the Meta-Su Region was mysterious and strong, but Zero was not afraid. No matter how powerful the ability was, one had to see the opponent before being able to use it. And Zero did not intend to fight head on, as a high ranking Element Domain Capable was also unable to defend against the incoming bullets. As long as he gave Zero a chance, he would be able to kill that man called Lafite before his opponent could make a move.

If it wasn't to help Teddy and the others pay the temporary living expenses, that amount of money would definitely be enough to buy an old sniper rifle. In an area like University City which was like a maze, sniping someone with abilities that wasn't too strong wasn't difficult at all.

Now, there was only enough money to buy two fragment grenade from the old era.

The only thing to worry about was the Chinese woman, who was in danger because she couldn't see the depth of the situation.

Half an hour later, Zero left the shelter. After a period of rest, he had stored up enough energy for two days of activities. He used the repelling force of the terrain to head towards the south side of the campus.

This area was mainly the living area. Rows and rows of dorm buildings lined the area, surrounded by artificial gardens. In the center of the living area, there was even an artificial lake. One could imagine that in the old era, this place must have been filled with lakeshore scales, lush grass, and full of vitality. Now, however, the dormitory had collapsed and the garden had been in a state of disrepair for many years. Coupled with the prolonged exposure to the sun, the vegetation had long since withered and died. As for the artificial lake, he had long since seen the bottom. The dry bottom of the lake was covered with the excrement and bodily fluids of some unknown animal. It was extremely disgusting.

He drilled into one of the dormitories. The buildings on the fifth floor and above had been damaged and collapsed. The buildings below the fifth floor were still considered intact, but there were cracks everywhere, as if they could collapse at any time. In the corridor on the ground floor of the dormitory, there was a pool of viscous liquid that attracted the slightest bit of attention. Zero squatted down and lightly stuck his finger on it. Then, he brought it up to his nose and took a sniff.

There was a faint stench, similar to that of dead fish. The feeling of numbness coming from his fingertips told him that this thing contained a small amount of Poison Su. He had seen this kind of thing a lot in the past two days. That was the rock spider's spider silk mucus. They would wrap the spider silk around their prey and drag it away. As the spider web dragged them along, it would leave a trail of viscous liquid on the ground.

The mucus on the stairs had yet to congeal, meaning that a rock spider had just dragged its prey past. The traces of the mucus extended from the corridor all the way to the multi-function hall. Zero stood up, took out a pair of revolver and walked towards the multi-function hall.

Most of the doors to the Hall of Multifunctions had already rotted away, leaving behind only a small piece of wood as a camouflage. Looking through the gap in the door, he saw that a space had been cleared out of the multifunctional hall. The morning sun shone in through the window, and within the light, a human pupa wrapped in spider webs was suspended in midair.

A rock spider climbed up the wall while dragging its prey wrapped in spider silk, and then used the spider silk's extremely thick mucus to fasten it to the ceiling of the hall. Zero did not expect these monsters to use the multi-function hall as a food storage room, and these people would become a feast for the rock spider to reproduce. They would be sucked dry of their flesh and blood by the hungry rock spider in the spider web, leaving nothing behind but skin and bones.

After attaching the food to the ceiling, the rock spider entered a crack in the corner of the hall and disappeared. Only then did Zero enter the hall, coming under the freshly captured prey. The people who were wrapped in the spider silk were young and old, both male and female. Some of them had already died, but some of them still had a weak aura about them, just like the new prey.

Zero recognized the man who had just been captured. It could even be used as a symbol. It was the old drunkard that Zero had bumped into at the entrance of the guild hall. Zero took out a dagger and cut open the spider web, then gently held old drunkard's body and placed him on the ground.

The neurotoxin on the spider silk had already invaded the old drunkard's body. Su Yun could only hope that this person was captured by the stone bead not long ago and had not gotten deeply poisoned. That way, he could expel the poison from his body by bleeding for him. Zero rolled up the drunkard's sleeve and was about to wipe his wrist with the dagger. Unexpectedly, the dagger was suddenly grasped by a hand. old drunkard, who should have fallen into a coma, suddenly opened his eyes wide and asked Su Yun, "What do you want to do?"

"You're not poisoned?" Wu Dai was surprised.

The alcoholic sneered, "Have you ever seen a monster hunter be defeated by a monster that you are familiar with? What a joke. I let him catch me on purpose, you fool! "

Zero was surprised. He knew about Hunters, but he didn't know that there were other types of Hunters. He didn't expect that this old man who had his foot in the coffin was actually a hunter.
