Chapter 42 (1/2)

Map drawing was one of the most common tasks.

Naturally, this kind of description that requires high precision cannot be done by hand.

In fact, Zero had a new piece of equipment on his left wrist.

It was a multifunctional tactical wristwatch rented in the Reims lobby, with functions other than watch time, compass, temperature tests, and dates.

It also has another function, which is the holo scanner.

Once this function is activated, the base computer will be connected, and zero will appear on the base's mapping device.

Because each base has its own security identification system on its computers, tactical wristwatches like this are not common.

Normally, when a mercenary accepted a task to draw a map, they would have to rent a specified alloy watch from the union.

Remot's own tactical wristwatch was relatively simple, and in his spare time had been a complement to the new era's knowledge.

As far as he knew, a tactical wristwatch developed by a big company like Parkland had even a holographic dialogue function that could be used as a holo computer if it was fitted to electronic gloves.

And now, with zero out of the library.

At Remutt's base, the western campus of Lampez University City had already completed the plan and the stereogram on the map.

Zero found the shadow of the ruins and sat down. He hadn't closed his eyes or eaten for two days.

His energy consumption exceeded his imagination. He needed to replenish his energy now.

After two hundred milliliters of clean water and a tube of nutrients, zero relaxes the body, allowing food to be broken down faster and converted into energy for action.

His body was resting, but his head was still working.

During these two days, he hadn't encountered any other three mercenaries, which was more than enough for the city.

But as the unknown region dwindles, it is only a matter of time before both sides encounter each other.

There were three of them, and apart from the expressionless Chinese woman, the other two men were hostile.

This was especially so for the elemental domain esper. As he was leaving, he could clearly feel Zero's killing intent towards him.

The ability of the Elemental Domain was mysterious and powerful, but Zero was not afraid.

No matter how powerful the ability was, it could only be used by the opponent.

However, Zero didn't intend to fight him head-on, and a high-level elemental domain user wouldn't be able to withstand the bullet's killing power.

As long as he could find a chance, he would be able to get rid of the man named Lafe before his opponent's ability was activated.

If it wasn't to pay for Teddy and the others' temporary stay, that money would have been enough to buy an old-fashioned sniper rifle.

In such a maze of the academy city, it was not difficult to snipe at a person who did not have a strong body.

Now, there was only enough money left to buy two old shrapnel.

The only thing to worry about was the Chinese woman.

Half an hour later, Zero left the cover.

This period of rest allowed him to store enough energy for two days of activity. Using the terrain as a shield, he headed towards the south side of the campus.

This area is mainly a living area, row after row of dormitories, there are man-made gardens surrounding it.

There was even an artificial lake in the center of the living area. One could imagine how it must have been in the old days, with its scales and lush grass, full of life and vitality.

But now, the dorm tower collapsed into pieces, and the garden was ruined for many years. Coupled with the prolonged exposure to the sun, the vegetation had long withered and died.

The artificial lake was already at the bottom, and the dry bottom of the lake was covered with the feces and fluids of some animal.
