The Seventh Base Chapter 266

Chapter 266: Chapter 127: The Wind Rises Chapter 266: Chapter 127: The Wind Rises Vehicles were moving through Steel Dome City.

In the confined space, Xu Mo could smell a faint fragrance, stealing a glance at the female devil.

Her beauty was indeed peerless, flawless from every angle.

The female devil leaned back in her chair, sitting upright, her legs stretched out tight, as if slightly nervous.

This made Xu Mo feel very strange.

The female devil, she could actually be nervous?

Perhaps, it was because of the enclosed environment inside the car?

“The last time I sought Stark, it was to discuss some matters,” Xu Mo spoke to the female devil, that time it was to borrow a Mecha.

The female devil looked ahead, ignoring him.

“Why do you call yourself 'Zero'?

What is your real name?” Xu Mo asked.

The name of the female devil, Zero!

Perhaps, this wasn't a name at all, but more like a code.

Did the female devil use a pseudonym at the academy as well?

“I am called 'Zero'.” the female devil responded, she had been called Zero since birth.

“Surname?” Xu Mo asked.

The female devil shook her head.

Xu Mo revealed a puzzled expression, did shaking her head mean she didn't know or didn't want to say?

“Where did the codename Fallen Princess come from?” Xu Mo asked.

The female devil ignored him.

Although Xu Mo's questions were simple, she didn't know how to answer them.

“Do you always not talk much?” Xu Mo curiously asked.

The female devil nodded gently.

“Friends then, you don't talk with friends either?” Xu Mo asked.

“I don't have friends.” She looked out the window.

In the real world, it was not long ago that she had begun to interact with the outside world, her understanding of it had always come from information and the Ruins World.

Previously, she even lacked a communicator until Xu Mo told her his communicator number, and she couldn't find Xu Mo, she got a communicator.

Xu Mo was somewhat moved, he suddenly realized, the female devil was lonely.

Her aloofness and pride were not feigned, but innate since birth.

Thus, after being defeated by him in the Super God Arena and getting to know him, did she start to consider him a friend?

Zero, might have an unusual background.

“From now on, I will be,” Xu Mo said with a smile, “Shall I take you out for some air?”
The female devil nodded gently.

Xu Mo opened the car window.

The vehicle emitted a roaring sound as it sped along the spacious street.

The wind blew in, and the female devil looked out the car window, her silvery long hair fluttering.

The two came to a cafe.

.cO

It was the same location where she watched Nanming Huowu and Nicholas fight in the Ruins World, the Ruins World corresponding to the real world.

In Steel Dome City, there was indeed such a cafe.

Xu Mo booked the entire place, given they were both not short of money now, and as 'celebrities' of Steel Dome City, being seen by too many people would cause a spectacle.

The two sat down on the cafe's balcony, the view here was very impressive, especially during the evening when the setting sun's twilight bathed the steel buildings in a golden hue.

Xu Mo leaned on the cafe's railing, looking at the distant scenery, stretching out his hand to feel the air, and said, “You like it here?”
“Hmm.” the female devil nodded gently, also standing in front of the railing like Xu Mo, feeling the breeze.

“Why do you like to fight?” Xu Mo asked the female devil beside him.

“My teacher made me fight,” the female devil said.

“Teacher?” Xu Mo showed a puzzled expression, “A teacher from the Extraordinary Academy?”
“No,” the female devil shook her head, “I entered the Extraordinary Academy after losing to you; I was always at home before that.”
“A homebody?” Xu Mo was somewhat surprised.

“Your teacher was captured?” the female devil asked.

“Yes,” Xu Mo nodded, during this period, he didn't know how his teacher was, but before the collapse of the Southwest Military District, Nan Mingyuan probably wouldn't make a move.

“Do you want my help?” the female devil asked.

“You?” Xu Mo looked at the female devil, somewhat surprised, and shook his head with a smile.

He had come to realize that the notoriously fierce female devil seemed a bit nave.

And also pure.

Seeing Xu Mo shake his head, the female devil didn't say anything else.

“How did you know?” Xu Mo curiously asked.

“Your sister told me,” the female devil said.

“Sister?” Xu Mo was stunned, then realized she must be talking about Xiao Xiao.

“And you?” Xu Mo asked, “You know so much about me, yet I know nothing about you.”
“I…” the female devil looked into the distance.

Her life was very simple.

Training, fighting.

Her mother and Qiong master were very strict, even harsh.

When she was young, everything about what and when to learn was planned out.

The Qiong master said she must lay a solid foundation for cultivation; she was a star in the heavens, destined to go far.

She didn't understand what that meant.

The Qiong master also didn't allow her to lose, even in the Ruins World.

Until Xu Mo appeared, and she lost for the first time.

Therefore, Xu Mo was the first outsider she knew.

So, she didn't know how to respond to Xu Mo's questions.

She had no stories.

Seeing the female devil fall silent again, Xu Mo didn't press further.

“Let me introduce another friend to you,” Xu Mo said.

The female devil didn't say anything, Xu Mo took it as her consent.

Xu Mo sent out a message, then sat back in his chair.

The coffee shop's waiter brought over the coffee, stealing glances at Xu Mo and the female devil, seeming somewhat nervous.

These two were hot commodities of Steel Dome City.

Xu Mo, and 'Zero' from the Capital.

How had they come together?

The female devil also sat across from Xu Mo, took a sip, and her expression gradually became bizarre as she looked up at Xu Mo.
