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

"Fire picker?"

Xuan Li raised his eyebrows slightly. This name should be a nickname for a person. After all, these three words don’t look like a name at all.

"Well, this is information I got through some secret channels, and what I have to do is to investigate the matter behind it."

After entering the cave, the sky changed and bright light fell on him. Qing Yi smiled and looked at Xuan Li, and continued

"Due to your identity, I can't tell you too much, but to be honest, I just came to the Dead End Hollow to try my luck because I received a mission related to other things."

Xuan Li remained silent upon hearing this, but he was a little curious. Could the fire picker who made Qingyi investigate be some kind of bandit?

Or is it some extremely vicious criminal?

If there really is any special situation, he might be able to help.

"By the way, how is your ability to resist the erosion of the void? If it's not so good, tell me your friend's information and I will help you rescue him."

Qingyi looked at Xuanli, thinking that he didn't speak because of the erosion of the void, so he spoke with some concern.

Xuan Li came back to his senses after hearing this, waved to Qing Yi, and said weakly

"I've tested it before, and my own erosion resistance is pretty good, so it's no problem for me to move around in the cavity."

Are you kidding? He is just a skeleton, how can he have any ability to resist erosion? Going back to the void is like going home, he doesn't need this thing at all.

To put it simply, if we simply compete on how long one can stay in a void, no intelligent creature, not to mention humans, even machines, can beat him.

But Xuan Li naturally wouldn't say these words.

Because of entering the void, the ether fluctuations in his body were a little chaotic, and are now converging little by little.

"That's good. By the way, that cat-man is your companion, right? Have you agreed on a meeting place?"

Qingyi took out a palm-sized electronic screen from somewhere, which was exactly the official's empty "carrot".

"As a companion void, the Dead End Void has not yet been fully explored. This radish was discovered with the help of several military mechas used to suppress voids."

"Hope your friend isn't in the inner area, or it's going to be trouble."

Qingyi handed the radish to Xuanli and said to him.

The picture constructed by Carrot Data was easy to understand, and Xuan Li quickly found the place Lingzhe planned to go.

The tunnel that intercepted the bombing train.

"Oh? It's this way."

Qingyi looked at the approximate direction pointed out by Xuanli, with a hint of doubt on his face.

Because of the fire-picker incident, the Defense Forces and the Public Security Bureau paid much more attention to the void issue, especially the void in the Janus District.

One of the two things she came to Dead End for was to investigate Vision Industrial. An investigator from the Public Security Bureau discovered some situations in Vision Industrial.

Originally, this matter fell on the Criminal Investigation Special Service Team, but as luck would have it, everyone else was busy with something today, and she was the only one who could spare the time.

So she came alone.

She had originally wanted to take a look at that area.

Could it be that the reason why Cunning Rabbit House asked for help was related to Envision Industrial?

Qing Yi had a guess in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud. He just nodded to Xuan Li and then said

"It's very dangerous inside the cave. You look like you haven't fought in a cave much before. No wonder you were bullied."

In Qingyi's eyes, Xuan Li in front of him looked obedient and stupid, with no combat experience, just like those colleagues who worked in the civilian jobs in the Public Security Bureau.

"To prevent any danger, you must follow me closely. Don't worry, I will protect you if you encounter any danger."

Waving the weapon in his hand, Qingyi walked in front of Xuanli, and his voice fell into the ears of Xuanli behind him.

"Okay... okay."

Xuan Li opened his mouth and spoke slowly. Why did he feel that things seemed to have deviated from the normal track?

Qingyi looked back at Xuanli who was following behind her, a hint of doubt appeared in her eyes. She tilted her head, and the ponytails on both sides swayed.

Why does it feel like... taking care of a cub?

So weird.

Is it because of Xuan Li’s personality and his good looks?

Food and sex are human nature.

Does this sentence also apply to robots?

Shaking his head, Qingyi withdrew his gaze. It seemed that he was really old and all kinds of messed up thoughts came to his mind.

As she walked, she suddenly stopped, holding the stick in one hand and raised the other hand to support her forehead.

No, it's not an illusion.

The thinking modules are indeed starting to get confused.

It feels a bit...uncomfortable.

Xuan Li noticed that Qingyi looked troubled and raised his eyebrows. What happened?

He came to Qingyi's side and was about to ask something when he saw Qingyi's body soften and fall backwards.

Xuan Li quickly reached out to support her and squatted down to let her sit on the ground. Seeing that she was not in any serious trouble and was still conscious, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Why did this happen all of a sudden?

"Senior, are you okay?"

I asked, but Qingyi didn't answer. He just frowned, as if he was enduring something.

After a moment, her brows gradually relaxed.

At the same time, Xuan Li was worried about Qingyi's condition and did not notice that the last trace of chaotic fluctuations on his body had been eliminated.

"I am fine."

Shaking his head, Qingyi stood up, looking like he had really recovered, but Xuanli still said

"Senior, if it really doesn't work, you should leave the cave first. I can handle this myself."

In addition to really caring about Qingyi, Xuanli also wanted to take action on his own.

"How can this be? I can't let you be alone in the cave. I can't let you go."

Qingyi picked up the stick and tapped Xuanli lightly on the head, then shook his head and said.

She had checked her body and found that there was no damage and she looked as good as new.

Qing Yi had no idea about the special situation just now, so he put it aside for the time being.

"Let's go."

Before Xuan Li could say anything else, Qing Yi continued to follow the route towards the target location. Xuan Li had no choice but to follow.

……

"General, a decisive blow."

With a bang, the end of the three-section staff shattered the core of a skeleton. Qingyi smiled slightly, and with a click, the three-section staff folded up and turned into the original long staff again.

She turned around and looked at Xuan Li, sighed and said

"I was right. Your combat experience is indeed very poor. I'm even curious about how you managed to do illegal work in the past."

"But in this situation, you still came with others to the cave to rescue your companions. That's commendable courage."

Qingyi walked to Xuanli, poked him with his elbow, and said with a smile

"How about calling me Master and letting me teach you how to fight?"

"Ancient martial arts are profound and extensive. Believe me, after my guidance, you will definitely become more powerful."
