Zero advanced on the cold water, the sewage had reached his waist, creating a huge resistance to his advance. If it weren’t for Günabel’s words, a physically fit Zero could use the speed provided by a Rank 5 Agility to run at the point of impact using the vertical wall. But now, regardless of whether it was strength or strength, all he could do was to act like a normal person and swim across the water. Moreover, he needed to consume a certain amount of energy to maintain his body temperature in order to avoid the cold sewage from numbing his limbs.

Of course, this consumption was negligible to anyone of the fifth step. However, Zero had always been cautious. He knew that even if he were to use up less than a third of his strength, it would still be a waste. They would grow like snowballs, perhaps turning into a straw that would overwhelm you at a moment you didn’t expect.

As he walked, Zero suddenly stopped and followed him silently to the nearby wall before climbing up like a gecko. Zero didn’t have a sucker, but his hands and feet were exerting a tremendous amount of force. Although he had only grasped the power of a rank 2 Magus, it was enough for Zero to dig holes in the metal wall for him to grab onto tightly. Using this method, it didn’t take long for Zero to reach a distance close to ten meters from the surface of the water.

At this time, the sound of water splashing could be heard from the direction of the passage. Not long after, a strange fish slowly swam over. Clearly, this strange fish didn’t set any traps for Feng Monarch and the others. Instead, it floated up from the surface of the water, exposing its shark-like fins. The body of the monster fish was a beautiful streamlined shape, allowing it to move quickly through the water.

The dense white teeth that came out of his mouth were very sharp. If one was bitten by it, even metal would be bitten off. Other creatures’ bodies were nothing to it. Even so, the descendants of the Nerubian Lord were just one of a myriad of ferocious mutated fish. In the polluted Endless Sea, there were countless creatures that were even scarier than strange fish.

Zero gathered his thoughts and returned to the dark base. Right now, the strange fish’s head was looking around, but it was obviously useless. It then sunk back into the water like a submarine. As the water surface started to rise, a small white bubble appeared, marking the movement of the fish. After that, Zero gently climbed down from the wall. Concealment and related actions had consumed another 1.5 percent of his energy.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t kill the strange fish, but that would only attract more enemies. Zero could not remember that the assessment mission involved the extermination of a school of fish, so he focused on the recovery of the experimental diary. Moreover, the number of strange fish was not something a single person could handle. At least, not now.

Zero continued forward, floating in the tunnel like a ghost. When he encountered a shoal of fish, sometimes he would climb the wall, sometimes he would hide in the ventilation ducts of nearby buildings, and sometimes he would even lie flat on his stomach underwater, not more than 10 centimeters away from the monster fish! Just like this, after more than two hours of groping, Zero finally arrived at the mission location.
