"Huh! Looking for me? After hearing Zhou Yan's words, Yoyo showed a slightly surprised expression.

"Well, but Yoyo, are you going to study with Marisa next?"

"No need, in fact, Marisa-sensei taught me everything I needed to teach yesterday, and the rest is for me to work hard." Yoyo shook his head slightly and said, "Also, Marisa-sensei gave me a magic book and her spare gossip furnace!" Now I can try casting spells using Marisa-sensei's methods! ”

"Spellcasting? Is it a magic cannon? Zhou Yan remembered Marisa's magic cannon preaching, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.

As she spoke, she happily took out a thin notebook from the silver bracelet in her hand: "Mr. Yan, this is it!" Marisa-sensei gave me a magic guide book! ”

Yes, the place where you take out what looks like a notebook but is called a magic book is the bracelet on your wrist. You don't have to think about it to know that it is a space prop that Zhou Yan has longed for for a long time.

Speaking of which, when I was still struggling with a sword, the girls on the same team were already able to use space equipment. This kind of gap always makes people feel inexplicably desolate.

"This, is it a magic book?" And carefully looking at the notebook in Youyou's hand, Zhou Yan was deeply skeptical.

"Of course! Here are Marisa-sensei's research notes! ”

"Wait, you just said you took notes! It's just a notebook! Why do you want to say that it's such a tall thing as a magic book! I'm looking forward to it in vain! ”

"Huh! Why is Mr. Yan inexplicably angry! And the magic book is originally a record of the research records and experiences of magicians, so it's perfectly correct to call it a magic book! ”

In the face of Youyou's arguments, Zhou Yan could only say: She is so reasonable, I am really speechless.

"Forget it, don't dwell on these issues." Zhou Yan immediately changed the topic: "Yoyo, we still have a team relationship, right?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?"

"No, I mean, I'm probably going to leave this place in a short time. Yoyo, if you still want to stay in this city and live, for your convenience in the future, I think we should cancel the team. Otherwise, you will ...... in the future."

"Mr. Yan!"

Before Zhou Yan finished speaking, he was interrupted by the girl's anger.

"Really! Mr. Yan always talks to himself like this! Every time, I say what to dismiss the team, unteam up! For Mr. Yan, am I a burden or a companion! ”

"Companion."

"Then why do you still say nothing about canceling the team every time!"

It seems that only when the mood is excited, this usually shy communication handicapped person can express himself so fluently and clearly.

"Well, I didn't mean that." Zhou Yan smiled bitterly and waved his hand: "I mean, if you can, can Yoyo leave with me?" Go on, as my companion. ”

"Huh!" Realizing that he had misunderstood Zhou Yan's Youyou, he couldn't help but blushed and said, "Ah, yes, that's the case...... That, that...... I know, I know...... It's not good for me to lose my temper...... That one...... Ah, anyway, I know! ”

Seeing the girl's face flushed because of shyness, Zhou Yan laughed. But instead of continuing to tease the girl, he said:

"By the way, I still have a few places to go next, so can I ask you to come with me? If you're going to find Marisa, forget it. ”

"No, no. Marisa-sensei also has a personal affair today, so I don't need to study with her. Yoyo hurriedly said, probably because the misunderstanding just now was still affecting her, and the girl's face was still crimson.

"Then let's go over now, I'm afraid I won't find her if I'm late." After Zhou Yan finished speaking, he hurriedly walked forward.

"Huh?" And although Youyou was full of doubts, he could only follow Zhou Yan quickly.

……

"So, what's the matter with you coming to me so early?"

At this time, Zhou Yan was in Akali's room, but Yoyo took the initiative to leave when he learned that Zhou Yan had something to discuss with Akali. And because she moved too fast, Zhou Yan had already closed the door before she could stop her.

So now there are only two people left in the room, Akali and Zhou Yan.

"Actually, I'm asking you to join my squad and be my companion." Zhou Yan didn't go around in circles, and directly put forward his request.

However, Akali also refused very directly: "I'm sorry, I don't think I can agree." ”

"Why?"

"Not to mention anything else, as long as the competition between the people of the other world in this world still exists, then we can never be solid allies, can we? Rather than being betrayed by the other person at any time when you are together, it is better to act alone in the first place. Akali shook her head.

Akali was right. In fact, as long as the competition between the various traversers facilitated by the previous One God is not over, then there is indeed a hidden hostile relationship between the various traversers.

However, Zhou Yan, who had long expected her to say such a thing, smiled: "But, if I sue you and I can let you go back to the original world, do we still have to fight like that?" ”

"What did you say?" And before Zhou Yan's words fell, Akali had already spoken.

Next, Zhou Yan unreservedly told Akali the content of his agreement with Louise.

"You just believe that I won't turn around and make a new deal with the princess myself?" Akali shook her head and looked at Zhou Yan with an Akali-like expression.

"Although there is a possibility. However, based on my speculation, there is a good chance that you will choose to cooperate with me in the end. Zhou Yan shrugged his shoulders: "I believe that you will definitely learn about the Stardy Martial Arts Tournament next, and by the way, learn about the specific combat power of this world." Then, the possibility of you and I working together will be greatly improved in the future. ”

After listening to Zhou Yan's words, Akali did not answer immediately. And her expression was calm, and she didn't seem to be thinking.

"You don't have to find out. I promise you. ”

"Huh?"

Now it's Zhou Yan's turn to be puzzled. He did speculate that Akali would most likely be willing to work with him. And because it is only very likely that it is not absolute, then it is very likely that Akali will not cooperate with him. And Zhou Yan thinks that she will at least go back and collect some information before making a decision. Akali, however, gave a direct answer.

"Surprised?"

"Yes. Surprised. ”

"It's nothing, first of all, I don't know the princess well, and even if I go to her, I guess it will be in vain in the end. Maybe she'll get angry because you leaked what was originally just your agreement, and she won't do business with anyone anymore. ”

"No, I don't think Louise will give up this deal lightly, and I can see that the tears of the goddess are important to her."

Akali just shrugged her shoulders and continued, "Secondly, I was also going to leave here and find a way back somewhere else. Since you have the possibility here, I might as well give it a try. And we already have experience working together before, and I think we can have a great time working together. ”

"Finally, I've long known about that martial arts meeting. Even I think the odds of winning are slim, as for you......"

Although it is not explicitly stated, Akali's meaning is already clear. She is not optimistic about Zhou Yan's final victory, just as Zhou Yan is not optimistic about Rudy.

"Anyway, it's already like this, so if we help each other, maybe we can turn things around in the end. It's a big deal that we robbed Her Royal Highness the princess together, anyway, if I go back to Valoran, she can't do anything about me. ”

Zhou Yan couldn't help but laugh dryly after listening to Akali's last dangerous speech. However, he was happy to have Akali's help.

"By the way, do you need to make an oath?" Then Akali said again.

"Nope." And Zhou Yan just shook his head: "As you said, the situation is already like this, no matter how bad it is, it can't be any worse." And it may be naïve to think so, but I still want us to be companions rather than collaborators. ”

"Be as happy as you like." Akali didn't respond positively to Zhou Yan's words, but said, "Will you go to Yasuo next?" If I'm not mistaken, you want to bring him into the gang too, right? ”

"Yes." Zhou Yan generously admitted his plan.

After all, Yasuo is also a very powerful storage for Zhou Yan, and if he can be pulled into the gang, the chances of victory on his side will also be greatly increased. And he should also want to go back to the original world, after all, how can he go back if he wants to track down the real murderer?

"Then you have a good talk with him, at least it seems to me that he is interested in this competition set by the gods. Maybe his purpose isn't to go back......"

"Huh?"

However, this time, for Zhou Yan's question, Akali did not answer it again: "Okay, if there is nothing to do, let's just decide." When it's time to leave, just come to me. I won't go out for a few days. ”

"Then it's troublesome......"

"Since you said you wanted to be a companion, it's best not to continue to be so polite."

"Well, goodbye then, Akali. However, please keep this matter a secret. ”

Akali didn't say anything, just waved her hand casually as a goodbye, but how did she look like she was driving away flies? Hopefully, it's just my own delusion.

Thinking so, Zhou Yan said goodbye to Akali and left the hotel where she was staying.
