Zone Zero: I'm invincible now that the heavenly fire has killed Nineveh!

"Ugh."

Hoshimi Miyabi sighed silently, her ears slightly lowered.

It's such a pity. I thought I could test my limits here.

I didn't expect I'd still have to hold back; it wouldn't meet my requirements at all. Oh well, I'll just consider this a test of the quality here for Rin.

She casually swung her katana, and an arc-shaped, frosty white slash flew out.

In the blink of an eye, the thirteen virtual rebels who surrounded him were cut in half. Their heavy shields were useless, and their bodies were split in two along with the shields.

The mangled body vanished as specks of light, leaving no trace of blood. This place, too, isn't entirely realistic.

In just over ten seconds, the first batch of test targets were all defeated by the lightning and ice.

For the Anti-Air Division 6, the rebels' basic units are a piece of cake.

Even a hundred men in formation couldn't withstand more than a few blows from them.

[Second batch of test targets; enemy has deployed.]

Dozens of green-skinned skeletons appeared, their heads resembling blooming flowers, topped with colorful ethereal cores, their hands fused with weapons.

They roared fiercely, completely mimicking the real skeletons.

"The lower-ranking enemy, Haitierfeng, is not a formidable foe."

Yuecheng Liu shook her head slightly, feeling no pressure whatsoever.

In just over ten seconds, the horde of skeletons that terrified ordinary citizens was easily defeated.

"Is it that simple?" Asaba Yuuma yawned and joked, "If it is, it feels like I got a huge advantage in class."

If the work remains at this level of difficulty, their salaries will far exceed their efforts.

He actually hoped that the enemies behind New Ellidou were all this kind of people, at least they would be easier to deal with and wouldn't cause such a big impact.

"It shouldn't be that simple. If the goal is to collect our data as a blueprint for the ultimate model, then we should at least be forced to use most of our strength."

Yuecheng Liu shook her head slightly, her attitude very serious.

[Third batch of test targets; enemy has deployed.]

"The Security Bureau's autonomous mechs? Their strength is starting to increase!"

Yuuma Asaba became somewhat interested, and couldn't help but remark, "But designing the police department as the enemy, is this cultivating tunnel raiders?"

“The best weapon technology companies in New Elidu are supplying weapons to the Security Bureau and the Defense Force,” Yuecheng Liu said seriously. “If you want to test the limits, they are of course much better than the rebels’ shoddy civilian-modified weapons.”

Asaba Yuuma pouted and said helplessly, "Deputy Section Chief, I was just joking. How come you have no sense of humor at all?"

While dealing with the autonomous mechs, Yuecheng Liu smiled and said, "I didn't actually approve your leave request last month. Was that a funny joke?"

"This isn't humor, this is a disaster!"

Asaba Yuuma felt like he was about to shatter, and he fought the autonomous mechs with even more force.

His leave request wasn't approved, so he's being treated as absent without leave. Will he be eating dirt when he gets paid this month?

“Just kidding, Asaba.” Tsukishiro Ryu pierced a mech’s chest with his sword and calmly said amidst the scattering sparks, “But if you take another seven days off this month, it will be for real.”

"call……"

Asaba Yuuma quickly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he only plans to take three days off this month, which, combined with the two weekends off each week, is enough.

"anything else?"

Hoshimi Miyabi sheathed her sword, and the shattered machine in front of her slowly disappeared, anticipating the next wave of enemies.

There was absolutely no challenge; even without learning the Taixu Sword Qi, she could easily reap the rewards.

If that's all there is to it, the training effect on the bell will be limited.

At that very moment, a new batch of competitors was deployed.

However, their bodies were stiff, and they were frozen in place.

As the group wondered what was going on, a somewhat distorted electronic voice came through.

Data collection complete, testing went smoothly. Thank you for your cooperation, executives!

The cadres of the association were praised for their multifaceted nature and their formal integration into the VR system.

He's going to trap all those guys from the Sixth Anti-Air Division here. This will be the first major success for the Praise Society in a long time!

"it's over?"

Cangjiao was somewhat taken aback.

She hadn't even used her full strength, and it was already over?

"The combat experience is very realistic, and the physical effects are quite good. The downsides are that the time is too short and the difficulty is a bit too low. I suggest increasing the difficulty."

Hoshimi Miyabi rested her chin on her hand and made the sincere suggestion.

"Hehe... Thank you for your feedback, Section Chief Ya. We will consider it carefully."

Thousand Faces' face twitched slightly, shocked by the strength of these people.

Having hacked into the system, he knew that while the first few levels weren't particularly difficult, they were definitely not easy for just anyone to pass.

As a result, these people cleaned up the place as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, and even had a lot of energy left over.

It's too easy, anyone can do it. I'll fill it out again next time. It's very simple!

As expected of the Void Hunters, as expected of the Sixth Division of the Sky, truly arrogant and powerful fellows. But let's hope you can maintain this arrogance for a while.

"Investigator, the test ended much faster than expected. Was the data collection successful?"

Yuecheng Liu frowned slightly, sensing that something was amiss.

If it's only at this level, they shouldn't need to specifically cooperate with the Sixth Class.

A team of experienced investigators would be perfectly capable of achieving the testing objectives. While teams of the HIA Club's caliber are elite, assembling dozens of such teams would be easy.

"It went quite smoothly; our staff simply sped up the process to make things easier for everyone."

Qianmian explained somewhat awkwardly.

It's going quite smoothly; so far, the Sixth Air Division hasn't detected anything unusual.

If we can just trick them into signing the authorization, these guys will be trapped in this world forever.

The HIA Club is quite capable; they only obtained partial system access, and the remaining portion required adherence to HIA regulations.

"Hmm, is that so?" Yuecheng Liu's eyebrows relaxed, and she said, "Then those staff members must have worked very hard."

"It's no trouble at all, it's an honor to serve the executives of the Sixth Anti-Air Division!" Thousand Faces forced himself to flatter them, and quickly said, "Haha, let's talk outside if there's anything else."

"I will bring up a logout menu. Please click 'OK'!"

He knew that the more he said, the more mistakes he would make, so he had to quickly persuade these people to cancel their login information.

Once this step is completed, he will officially be within the scope of his authority. By then hiding the applicable terms of the HIA Club, he can trap the Sixth Anti-Air Division in this virtual world!

"..."

Hoshimi Miyabi suddenly frowned and subconsciously tightened her grip on the hilt of her sword.

She sensed a deep-seated malice.

Since she began practicing the Taixu Sword Qi, her senses have become more acute and she has never made a mistake.

"What's wrong, Section Chief?"

Tsukishiro Ryu noticed Hoshimi Miyabi's expression and asked with some concern.

"It's nothing, it's probably just that the enemy is eyeing us."

Hoshimi Miyabi shook her head and released her grip on the katana.

The Sixth Anti-Air Division is the elite force protecting New Elidu. It's common for them to be targeted by criminals, and many people wish for their demise.

Perhaps someone from the HIA club has come with malicious intentions; they should go out and check as soon as possible.

"..."

A chill ran through him behind his thousand faces.

This guy is incredibly perceptive!

The ability to sense malice even through a network cable—has this Virtual Hunter always been this outrageous?

He quickly said, "Chief Ya is right. We should get out of here as soon as possible to prevent criminals from taking advantage of us!"

As he spoke, he brought up the interface and showed it to the group of people.

Although Hoshimi Miyabi still sensed the malice, she didn't care that much.

The source of the malice is definitely outside; we must get out as soon as possible.

As for what dangers this virtual world could pose? She could easily cut this place apart entirely, so the malice comes from the outside.

And this malice was very strong, and it was very, very close to her.

So, were they disguised as HIA staff members and staying by their side?

At this moment, after hearing Hoshimi Miyabi's words, Tsukishiro Ryu, Asaba Yuuma, and Aokaku also became somewhat serious.

They trusted Hoshimi Miyabi's judgment, because the section chief had been acting like he had sensitive skin lately.

Even the slightest bit of malice can be detected, even if that malice isn't directed at the section chief.

They can spot thieves and fugitives while shopping, and easily catch them all and send them to the police station.

If it weren't for repeated explanations, the Security Bureau would have thought that Section Six of the Air Defense Division was being transferred to the Security Bureau for work guidance because of Bollinger's matter!

So, who exactly is it that dares to infiltrate the HIA club and do bad things?
