"Adam, are you really sure that all the equipment is not needed?"

Chen stood in front of the screen, holding Adam's little hand with his right hand.

"Well! Gibbs and the others have told me a long time ago that I was designed like this." Adam nodded vigorously.

"Okay, then, are you willing to help me?" Chen turned around, squatted down, faced Adam, holding his face in both hands.

"Well... Then I'm going to see the sea! Sitting on a sailboat and fishing!"

"sure."

"I'm going to climb the mountain! The highest mountain!"

"sure."

"I'm going to fly the plane!"

"sure."

"I want it even..." Adam tilted his head and thought for a long time: "Anyway, I want it all!"

"I--all for you, Adam, as long as you can get out from here with me."

"Okay!" Adam laughed happily and nodded vigorously.

"So, let's start."

Chen stood up and pulled Adam to the front of the light curtain.

"Chen, have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?"

The voice of Zero City sounded.

"You don't need to remind you. You don't know how long I have been waiting for this moment..." Chen smiled and said lightly.

Adam stretched out his hand and pressed it on the light curtain, and his palms were easily penetrated as if they were pressed on the water.

Before Zero City was captured, the screen in Zero City core was placed in the main control center. Whether it is a member of Zero City core team or a tourist who is temporarily granted access, you can touch it at will.

No matter who it is, when you reach out and press it on this screen, you can only feel a faint response. What appears on the screen is a little bit of water ripples when you contact. Through the translucent screen, you can also see the arms behind you.

But—When Adam reached out and pressed it on the screen, a completely different effect appeared!

His hands disappeared!

It's like being swallowed by that screen!

Adam turned around and glanced at Chen: "You promised it, Chen, you want to take me out."

Then, he took a step forward and disappeared from the screen.

The screen was quiet, but a wave of water rippled, gradually disappearing invisible, and there was no change again.

...

“What’s wrong.”

Nicole frowned and stopped.

"What's wrong?" Tianlie also stopped and looked at Nicole.

"The road... is not right." Nicole shook his head: "We have been walking for so long, and it should have been here long ago."

"Are you sure?" Tianlie sneered: "Can you remember the wrong way?"

"Although this place has been almost destroyed, I still remember the general terrain very clearly. After all, I have lived in this city for so long." Nicole shook his head firmly: "From the central square, after the headquarters of the King Hunting Regiment, next is the headquarters of the Rodria, then the station of the Angels, and finally to the Senate. But..."

Nicole stretched out her hand and pointed to the ruins on her right hand: "The order we passed was completely disrupted. This is the former residence of the Angels Legion, and this is the second time we have passed here."

"Someone is making a ghost?" Tianlie clenched his fists.

"No, it's not necessarily human." Nicole thought about it carefully and said slowly.

"Actually, it's very simple to confirm this." Tianlie laughed: "If you look down from the air, you will understand everything? If you can see the original location of the Senate, then fly over directly. If the scene you see is different from what you remember, we... will find a way to find the guy who is making a fool!"

After saying that, Tianlie stretched out his hand to Nicole.

"What are you doing?" Nicole looked at Tianlie alertly.

"Pull me! You have the ability to fly, but I don't." Tian Lie shrugged: "What do you think I want to do?"

"Nothing." Nicole hesitated for a moment, reached out and was about to pull Tianlie's hand, but suddenly he heard a voice: "No need to look, I did change the space around you a little just now."

Nicole turned her head quickly, but no one was seen in her sight.

"Don't look for me, you can't see me. Now, just listen to me quietly." The voice was erratic, I don't know which direction it came from, and it even seemed to be directly ringing in the ears of both of them: "I don't have malice, just because I was busy with another thing just now, so I don't have time to care about you. And now... it seems that I need your help."

"Help?" Tian Lie sneered: "Who are you? Why do I want to help you?"

"No, I'm not talking about you, but the girl beside you." The voice said lightly: "Nicole, Angels Floating Angels, Team No. 0052."

"You... are you?" Nicole hesitated for a moment, and there was already some guess in her heart, but she didn't dare to confirm completely.

"I am Zero City. To be precise, Zero City's main control system."

Nicole was stunned and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zero City: "Don't question it, we don't have that much time now. What I need you to do now is very urgent. I think... you should be able to feel my presence."

When Nicole heard the sound, she suddenly felt a strange feeling all over her body, as if she had touched the screen, establishing a spiritual connection with the main controller of Zero City, but this time her feeling was stronger than ever before.

If you give an example, the feeling when you touch the screen before was like looking at a Japanese ***** with thick codes, then the feeling now is facing a 4K resolution 3D Blu-ray disc.

"Yes. I felt it." Nicole closed her eyes and opened it after a few seconds: "What do you want me to do?"

"I. I want you to get... me."

As soon as Lingcheng finished speaking, the eyes of the two of them burst into tears. When they lit up again, the ruins of the surrounding city had disappeared and stood on a smooth floor.

The sky is pure white, and the ground is pure white, extending to the end of your sight, as if it is endless.

In front of the two, a door stood.

And on the edge of the door, there was a person standing.

A middle-aged man with an ordinary face, so ordinary that no matter how long he stares at him, as long as he turns his face, he will immediately forget his appearance.

"You are... the core of Zero City?" Nicole looked at the man.

"Yes." The man nodded: "Just call me zero. Although you have never seen me, I believe you will definitely remember the feeling of touching that screen."

"Yes, I remember." Nicole nodded: "Where is this..."

"The core area of ​​Zero City." Zero pointed to the door: "To be more precise, it is the road leading to the core area of ​​Zero City."

"Core area?" Nicole frowned.

"Yes. The place where you usually live is just the outer layer of Zero City. No one has ever entered the real core area. Even I don't have it." Zero smiled: "After all, I am just an administrator. Only the founders here have the permission to enter the core area."

"Founder?" Nicole just asked, but Zero waved his hand and interrupted her: "We don't have much time, not enough to answer so many irrelevant questions. Come with me, I will tell you slowly on the way."

After saying that, Zero reached out and slowly opened the door in front of him.

The door was pitch black and there was nothing to see.

Nicole took two steps forward, but Tianlie stood there without moving.

"You said let us go in, we go in? Then what if I don't go in?" Tian Lie looked at Zero coldly.

"I am just a system administrator. I will not be hurt by anyone, nor have the ability or authority to hurt anyone. I will only send you away." Zero turned his face and smiled at Tianlie: "I mean, I will send Zero City completely."

"Tell me where is Chen?"

"It's also on the way to the core area. So, I hope you can walk faster, at least you must arrive in front of him." Zero's expression was slightly anxious, but he still maintained his demeanor: "Miss Nicole, are you ready?"

Nicole glanced at Tianlie: "I'm going, where are you?"

Tianlie and Nicole looked at each other and walked towards the door without hesitation.

The two of them stepped into the door.

After crossing the door frame, the darkness in front of the two immediately disappeared, replaced by a narrow passage, which could only allow the two to barely walk side by side.

The passage is made of blue bricks, which looks solid and heavy, and two forks are divided in front of it.

"Please follow me. There is no need to fight in the process of obtaining this key. You can relax for a while." Zero smiled slightly at the two of them, turned his head and walked forward.

"This?" Nicole keenly captured the key in episode zero: "You mean, there are other cases where we have to fight?"

"Yes." Zero nodded, but his footsteps kept: "The passage leading to the core area of ​​Zero City is blocked. There are six keys that can open this passage. As long as three of them are collected, you can enter the core area. The way of collecting each key is different. You can understand it as... it is an extremely miniature copy."

"Three hands?" Tian Lie immediately said: "In other words, we have to pass the three copies?"

"That's right, but I said it's just very small. And as a system administrator, I have certain permissions. Although the distribution of copies to each batch of visitors was random, I could make certain arrangements to select simpler copies." Zero walked to the end of the channel, turned to the left without any hesitation, and continued to walk forward: "The first copy is just a maze. Although it is very complicated, you just need to follow me."

While talking, the three of them had already walked through three intersections. When each intersection passed by, Zero did not stop at all, as if the terrain of this maze had been completely imprinted in his mind.

"Well, now, you can tell me - what's going on here, what's going on, what's going on, what you want me to do, what's going on," Nicole asked quickly.

"There is a man who wants to obtain my authority." Zero turned around and looked at Tianlie: "It sounds like you know him."

"It's... half a friend." Tian Lie nodded: "I came here just to find him."

"If that's the case, you'll see him later." Zero continued to say to Nicole: "If he gets my permissions, something bad will happen. But at the moment, it seems that I can't stop it from happening. If the permissions are taken away, then... the one who gets it must not be Chen."

"Why?" Tian Lie continued to interrupt coldly, "What's the difference between whether the authority was seized by Chen or Nicole?"
To be continued...
