Absolute Zone Zero: Please call me the Dragon of Annihilation

Chapter 32 Conspiracy – Zhu Yuan's Conjecture
"Your Excellency, are you really sure Lord Lycan is on the other side?" Colleen looked at the empty street before her, then turned to look at Ming Che behind her with a puzzled expression. Ming Che sensed the spatial fluctuations around him, raised his hand, and nodded, pointing to the spot in front of Colleen.

Seeing Ke Lin still hesitating, Ming Che couldn't help but remind her, "If you go now, you can still make it. If you delay any longer, who knows how long it will take to find it next time." "But there's nothing here?"

Ke Lin touched the air in front of her in confusion, while Ming Che simply stood by and watched quietly, mentally counting down: "3, 2, 1, open." As Ming Che finished counting down, a spatial rift instantly appeared in front of Ke Lin.

A split second before the rift appeared, Ming Che quietly appeared behind Ke Lin and gave her a gentle push. "Ouch! Ahhh!" With a terrified expression, Ke Lin lost her balance and fell into the spatial rift.

…………

On the other side, a dead end in the middle level of the cave.

"Ah~ I'm so sleepy." Eileen, dressed in a maid outfit, was squatting by the roadside yawning, with a huge pair of shark scissors stuck in her hair beside her. Not far from her stood two people, or more accurately, a human and a werewolf.

The werewolf was dressed in a specially made suit and wore special metal combat boots. His white tail was bound by restraints. He was holding a tablet and had a serious expression, seemingly deep in thought.

The other person floated in mid-air, dressed in a neat maid outfit, with an elegant hairstyle and light makeup. She was looking into the distance with a worried expression, and two special bangbu floated beside her as well.

The two seemed to be troubled by the same thing when the woman floated up to the werewolf and asked, "Lord Lykan, have you still not found Little Corinne's location?" Lykan shook his head and closed the tablet in his hand.

"We don't know what happened inside the void, but the data inside is changing rapidly. The data we prepared for the carrot has become unusable. It will be very difficult to find Little Corinne now, unless we go to find the legendary rope craftsman Phaethon."

"Buzz~ Aaaaaaah!" Just as the two were thinking about what to do next, a spatial rift appeared not far above Lycaon, and a figure screamed as he fell down from the spatial rift in the sky along with his weapon.

Almost instinctively, Lykan reached out and caught the figure, nearly falling over due to the inertia. "Lord Lykan!" Lina quickly floated to Lykan's side, her expression worried. "It's alright, Little Colleen has been found."

After saying this, Lykan slowly squatted down and placed the terrified Colleen on the ground. Lina gently stepped forward and hugged little Colleen on the ground, her voice soft: "Colleen, it's alright now." With Lina's comforting words, Colleen quickly calmed down.

Lina helped Colleen to her feet, and she began to straighten her disheveled skirt. Just then, two special babes handed Colleen a chainsaw. "Thank you," Colleen whispered as she took the chainsaw. Lykan asked, "Colleen, how did you find us?"

Cocoline cautiously recounted her encounter with Mingche, and how he led her to find the spatial rift. After listening to Cocoline's description, Lykahn lowered his head, lost in thought. "Cocoline, you mean, someone carrying a box bigger than you suddenly appeared and saved you?"

Kelin nodded very seriously, and as if afraid that no one would believe her, she hurriedly gestured. "He did this, and then that, and suddenly rushed into the skeleton horde. Finally, five huge fire snakes spewed flames and destroyed all the skeletons."

Because she was too emotional, Colleen's face turned slightly red. Seeing this, Lina knelt down and gently patted Colleen to help her catch her breath. Meanwhile, Lycan looked intently at the tablet, searching for something. After a while, once Colleen had calmed down...

Lykahn handed the tablet to Colleen and asked, "Colleen, is this what the big box you're talking about looks like?" The tablet displayed an official photo of a multi-functional weapon storage box, showing the box's functions in detail.

Colleen took the tablet and examined it carefully. After a while, she returned it to Lykan and shook her head. "His box doesn't have this strange pattern." Lykan lowered his head, lost in thought again, even his breathing becoming rapid. Although Lykan tried his best to suppress his shock, based on Colleen's words, he could already conclude that the other person's identity was definitely not ordinary, and very likely not an official. But one thing Lykan couldn't understand was why this person would appear alone in the dead-end tunnel.
Moreover, being able to eliminate dozens of skeletons in one move shows considerable strength. If the other party is not an official, what is their purpose in coming to the Dead End Hollow? Various questions swirled in Lycaon's mind, making even the usually composed Lycaon somewhat irritable.

"Lord Lycan, are you alright?" As if sensing that something was wrong with Lycan, Lina spoke softly, "Since the other party did not harm Corinne, it proves that they do not intend to be our enemy."

“In that case, let’s find a way out first. This dead end is no longer a place for us.” After saying that, Lycahn took the lead and started to move, and the others followed suit, looking for a way out.

Meanwhile, at the Guangying Square Criminal Investigation Special Service Unit.

"Here, be careful, it's hot." A cat-like figure dressed in a sheriff's uniform handed a paper cup of warm water to the elderly man sitting in front of him. "Thank you, young man." The cat-like figure smiled brightly at the compliment, his large, fluffy tail wagging rapidly behind him.

Just as the cat was about to ask if the old man was feeling unwell, a shout interrupted him, "Seth! Come here for a moment." Hearing this, Seth could only scratch his head and apologize to the old man.

"Grandpa, you should rest well. I'll go get back to work! Tell her if you feel unwell." After saying that, he pointed to Zhu Yuan, who was taking notes on the little girl, and then turned and ran towards the office area.

The old man stared in the direction Seth had left, his cloudy eyes filled with an unreadable expression. After a while, he looked away and turned his gaze to the still steaming warm water in his hands. Beside him sat a dozen or so other people, just like him, who had escaped from the dead-end tunnel.

They were of varying ages, but most of them, like him, were staring blankly at the water glass in their hands. They were either worried about how they would live in the future, or they were still missing their loved ones trapped in the dead end.

"Little sister, you mean that Vision Company didn't send anyone to evacuate the survivors as required? Instead, they planned to blow them up along with the survivors!" Zhu Yuan paused in her writing, then clenched her pen into a fist.

Zhu Yuan was deeply shocked. On one hand, she hadn't expected that Vision Company would dare to disregard the safety of others and forcibly demolish the abandoned railway. On the other hand, she was astonished that such a major incident had gone unnoticed by anyone.

"Could it be that someone in the upper echelons is infected..." Zhu Yuan's pupils trembled slightly at the thought, and her breathing became rapid. She had already considered all the most terrifying consequences, none of which were things she could interfere with at the moment.

The only way now is to stop their evil deeds before they blow up Vision Company. Thinking this, Zhu Yuan dared not delay any longer. She quickly pressed the walkie-talkie on her collar and said, "Everyone, fully armed! Assemble at the Special Operations Department entrance within ten minutes!"

After saying that, Zhu Yuan turned and ran towards the armory, picking up her equipment and hanging it on her body. "Huh? Huh! (Zhu Yuan, where are you going? Why are you preparing so much equipment!)"

Just then, a bangbu that had been placed in the weapons room for charging came to Zhu Yuan's side with its short legs and asked a question. "Senior, time is of the essence. I don't have time to explain to you right now. Your body hasn't been repaired yet, so please stay here for now."
