Absolute Zone Zero: As a corpse, elegance needs no words

The researcher looked calm as he put the test tube back and turned around to look at Xuan Li again, but this time he was not observing him.

His eyes fell on Xuan Li, without any hostility, but rather with a hint of curiosity and exploration.

That is the purest yearning for the unknown of those who pursue knowledge and truth.

"Looking at your nonchalant attitude now, I'm even more certain of my assumption. The arrogance of the creation of heaven and earth is indeed like this..."

"Fire Picker... Considering your characteristics, the name chosen by the major of the Scepter Army is quite good."

The elegant researcher smiled, as if he was happy to see the Fire Gatherer so close for the first time.

"What does creation of heaven and earth mean?"

Xuan Li's expression was calm, and his eyes were bright under the mask. He came to the Westa Society to find out about the defectors and learn about himself.

The letter was an active request, so he could put it aside for now. The situation here did not disappoint him. This guy was not only quick-witted, but also knew a lot of things.

But he was a little curious...

Apart from the person in front of me, where are the other researchers?

As if he understood Xuan Li's intention, the researcher chuckled and said

"Are you looking for the other researchers? They should be gone by now. The corpses on the front line... weren't without cost."

The researcher walked over to the instrument nearby and turned on a device that looked like a loudspeaker. Then the expression on his face gradually calmed down.

"Fire Picker, I know the information you want."

"I can tell you some information in these few remaining moments, but I'll ask you to do me a favor. After all... if I keep silent, Your Excellency won't be able to learn anything."

He smiled slightly and spoke softly.

"Tsk...are you negotiating terms with me?"

"As for helping or something, let me first see how valuable the information you can bring is. After all... I'm the one in charge."

Xuan Li waved his hand, his tone indifferent, his eyes fell on the device that had already been turned on, he did not feel any difference.

What is this thing... used for?

"Indeed, what you said is quite true."

"Please ask me any questions you may have. I will answer all my questions."

The researcher did not refute Xuan Li's words, but nodded slightly and spoke to him.

"Speak out everything you know?"

"Well, after all, among the core members of the Wistar Institute, this is not a confidential matter."

The researcher smiled as something seemed to be rushing towards him from the air in the distance.

"I'm a little curious, where does your hostility towards me come from?"

"Is it because you want to catch it as some rare creature so you can study it?"

Xuan Li came to an equipment table next to the position, leaned against it, his eyes fell on him, and there was a bit of curiosity in his words.

"Capture and research? Hahaha..."

The researcher laughed twice, shook his head and said

"We don't have that much ability or courage. Killing and capturing alive are two completely different levels of difficulty."

"Some people within the Wistar Society may have held this view initially, but after the Crete Hollow operation, most people came to a consensus."

The researcher explained to Xuan Li slowly, then thought of something and continued

"Oh, forgot to answer your first question."

"As I just said, you are a child of the world, a creation of heaven and earth to fight evil with evil. Therefore, your future is destined to be an enemy of the world's ills..."

"That is the hole beneath my feet."

"But, while I'm proud to be human, the true meaning of humanity's role and existence in this world... is self-evident."

“The world does not need humans, but humans need the world.”

The researcher paused, his eyes filled with helplessness and worry, but after a moment he regained his composure... and a hint of pride.

"You are the future of the world, and you are fighting against the enemies of the world."

"But we still don't know whether humans have a place in the world's future."

"We still don't know whether humanity has a place among the world's enemies."

The researcher slowly took out a sharp dagger from his pocket. The blade was shining with a cold light, just like his current mood.

His eyes darkened slightly, and he said softly

"Your existence is a gamble for humanity. Even if the professor has greatly increased the odds of winning, the stakes are the future of all mankind..."

"Humans cannot gamble, nor can they afford to gamble."

"Humanity should have its own unique path to hope. We cannot pin our future on uncertainty, nor leave hidden dangers..."

"That's where their hostility towards you comes from."

The researcher picked up the dagger with one hand, raised his other arm, stretched out his left hand, and used his right hand holding the dagger to cut his wrist directly.

Rich, bright red blood flowed down.

The researcher threw the dagger aside, letting the blood flow. He turned slightly, picked up a round-bottomed glass bottle, and smashed it directly on the table.

The glass bottle shattered, leaving only the lower half of the ball. He picked up the half and placed it under his bleeding wrist.

His face turned pale as the blood flowed.

"Fire Picker, time is running out. I don't know how much my information will be worth to you, but I'm going to tell you what I want to ask for your help."

The researcher smiled slightly.

"If I succeed, she will return directly to the depths of Hollow Zero and leave here. If I fail, she will attack right here."

"Your Excellency is very powerful. So please help me clean up this mess. If the value of this information satisfies you, I will thank you."

What he said was very polite, meaning that if Xuan Li was satisfied and wanted to help, he would thank him, but if he was not satisfied and did not want to help, that was fine.

As the researcher finished speaking, a shadow appeared, covering most of the base.

Xuan Li raised his eyes slightly and saw Nineveh in the sky.

Although she ran very fast just now, the damage caused by the silver bullet still affected her. The obviously broken flower tail showed that she had also suffered considerable damage.

Xuan Li just noticed her coming over here, and his eyes fell on the instrument opened by the researcher.

This should be it.

Attract Nineveh.

I think it should be specially made for Nineveh, after all, he is also a corpse, but this thing has no effect on him at all, and he can't even feel a trace of abnormality.

Nineveh circled in the air, seemingly hesitating whether to descend. Although she wanted to destroy the noisy thing on the ground, the figure on the other side gave her an inexplicable fear...

It was as if she had been beaten by this figure.
