Chapter 119 - Chapter 119: Shiyu Defense Battle

"I'm going to work. See you."

Mo Xuan said goodbye to Belle and then left the house. This made Belle feel that she had something to complain about.

"Why do you have to drive to work with this kind of ability?"

Belle complained, then watched Mo Xuan drive away. She, on the other hand, sat down and recorded some of the abilities she had heard about before. She was sure that Mo Xuan's transformation today was the strongest form he had ever had. Then the question was, why didn't he use the black and white form from the beginning?

"Is it to enjoy the fun of the game?"

Belle thought for a moment and muttered to herself. She had played a lot of games. Compared to getting an invincible save file and then instantly killing everything, it seemed more fun to fight monsters and level up step by step. Maybe this was Mo Xuan's purpose.

After complaining, Belle went around Mo Xuan's house and cleaned up the messy house for him. To be honest, she had never been so serious about cleaning her own room. It was not until she was satisfied that she stopped cleaning. Then she went to Mo Xuan's bed and rolled around a few times as a reward for her labor.

Mo Xuan had already arrived at the Public Security Bureau at this time. Although he had only been away for a day, he missed his girlfriend very much. The moment he entered the office and saw Zhu Yuan, he felt as if he had the whole world.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"

Zhu Yuan raised her hand and touched her cheek and asked. She found that the way Mo Xuan looked at her was different from usual. It seemed to have more emotions that could not be spoken.

"No. I just want to look at you more."

Mo Xuan said with a smile. Of course, this made Zhu Yuan confused. She looked at Mo Xuan up and down for a while and also felt that he seemed a little more pleasing to the eye than before. When she looked at him, there were different fluctuations in her emotions.

"Strange. Didn't we just see each other the day before yesterday?"

Zhu Yuan replied to Mo Xuan's words with a light laugh. She didn't know why, but she felt her heart beat faster when she looked at Mo Xuan's face. It was as if she had done something to him before. But she didn't think it was about anything. The most intimate act she could think of was just sticking close to him in the swimming pool for a while.

'Ring-ring-ring~'

The sound of the phone broke the atmosphere in the office. Zhu Yuan immediately answered the phone and put it to her ear, then replied with a serious look a few times.

"Mo Xuan, did you rest well yesterday?"

Zhu Yuan put down the phone and said to Mo Xuan. She had already regarded Mo Xuan as her most reliable right-hand man. She would take him with her to handle anything.

"I rested very well. I'm very energetic."

Mo Xuan said.

"Let's go. We're going to Hollow Zero for a mission."

Zhu Yuan gave a call and then walked out. Mo Xuan didn't expect that he would have to leave again just after coming to the Public Security Bureau. An expert who dealt with Hollows was just that busy. He had to risk his life just after coming to work on Monday.

"Another extermination operation?"

Mo Xuan asked after catching up with Zhu Yuan.

"No. This time it's a Shiyu defense battle."

Zhu Yuan shook her head and said. But anyway, it was all a battle in a Hollow. If you had to distinguish, it would be offense and defense.

"Shiyu?"

This was the first time Mo Xuan had heard this word. Zhu Yuan didn't say much. It was not until after all the combat personnel of the Public Security Bureau had gotten on the car that Zhu Yuan came to Mo Xuan's side and rode in the same car with him, and then explained what a Shiyu was.

"Shiyu is the tallest building you saw outside of Hollow Zero. Do you have an impression?"

Zhu Yuan said.

"That cylindrical one?"

Mo Xuan soon remembered that building. That thing was really impressive. A huge cylinder a hundred meters high. Just standing there was a spectacle. How could he forget?

"Right. That is the battery for the entire New Eridu. And what supplies it with energy are the small Shiyu built in Hollow Zero."

"Since it's a building built in a Hollow, there's a possibility of being targeted by Ethereals. A large part of the military's surveillance system is used to defend the Shiyu from being attacked. The Ethereals will gather from time to time to attack the Shiyu pillar. Our purpose this time is to protect the Shiyu from being destroyed. This is also to protect the entire energy supply of New Eridu and to lower the activity of Hollow Zero at the same time."

Zhu Yuan explained the situation of today's battle. It was probably because the evaluation of the last battle in the Hollow was extremely high, so the military had invited her again. Of course, Zhu Yuan would not shirk such a matter.

"Our duties are really diverse."

Mo Xuan felt that his knowledge had increased again. He had never heard of this Shiyu thing before. But after Zhu Yuan explained it, he also understood its importance to humanity. It could be said to be the cornerstone of New Eridu's development.

"Who can say otherwise? But just as you said, these things have to be done by someone."

Zhu Yuan nodded and said. Such a life was full of busyness and crisis. And now she could be said to have a person to rely on. With Mo Xuan around, not only was the pressure of battle lessened, but she could also find him to confide in the pressure in her heart when she was relaxing. Zhu Yuan was also a person. Of course, she would also be tired and want to be comforted.

"Zhu Yuan, no matter what happens, I will protect you."

Mo Xuan said to Zhu Yuan in a sincere tone. Zhu Yuan also had a smile on her face and nodded gently.

"No way, you really don't see us as people?"

Qingyi complained with a sour expression. Although she wouldn't be sour, there was indeed a sour feeling in her program. This car was not just for Mo Xuan and Zhu Yuan. There were also other people from the Public Security Bureau. Now these people were either looking up at the ceiling pattern or looking down at their fingers, all pretending that they hadn't heard anything.

The armored vehicle soon arrived at the outpost of Hollow Zero and stopped. This time, the one who received Zhu Yuan and the others was still the military officer Roland. This was not the first time Zhu Yuan had participated in a Shiyu defense. After getting the pass, she got on the car and entered the military's special passage with her own people.

The armored vehicle drove for a distance in the Hollow and arrived at its destination. On the way, they encountered a few waves of a small number of Ethereal attacks, all of which were wiped out by the automatic machine guns deployed on the armored vehicle. This was not even an appetizer.

The armored vehicle came to a stop around the Shiyu pillar. Mo Xuan got out of the car. He frowned and felt that things were not simple. Because he saw that the side of that pillar was already filled with soldiers in military uniforms. And there were more than a dozen of the military mechs he had dealt with before. They were arranged in a formation around the Shiyu pillar for all-around defense.

From the number of these mechs, Mo Xuan judged that this attack must be unusual. These military mechs were not mass-produced. Each one's cost was a big number. For the military to be willing to take out so many at once was definitely not to show off their wealth but because they really needed to use them.

'Rumble!'

In Mo Xuan's perception, the ground suddenly trembled. The small stones at his feet were trembling slightly, and the fighting frequency was getting higher and higher, until this small stone stood up from the ground.

Mo Xuan looked in the direction from which the vibration came. He saw countless Ethereals swarming over. Behind these Ethereal swarms were three Dead End Butchers holding long-handled weapons. Each time a Dead End Butcher's foot fell, it would crush a few Ethereals. The other Ethereals were stepping on the corpses of their own kind to advance.

On the roofs of the buildings on the side of the street, dozens of Thanatos were either standing or sitting. Around them were armored Hati as their guards. This lineup, let alone Mo Xuan, even the veterans felt their legs go a little soft.

"Did they say it was this intense before?"

Mo Xuan scratched his head and asked. He felt that he seemed to have encountered a once-in-a-century Hollow anomaly again. Every time he came to Hollow Zero, he seemed to encounter strange things. He was already used to it.
