Chapter 5, Friendship
"Cronnie, what do you think we're doing outside now?" Tony was revising a screw with a sharpened driver.
"Well...... red-haired girl tilted her head, she didn't know, "I just think...... If the gods don't fight, then ......," she folded her hands, "then the world will be at peace!" There was a hint of melancholy in her red eyes.
"You and Rick are both ......," Tony looked into the distance, "we've both suffered from the destruction of our families, haven't we?" He exhaled softly, "Me too!" He remembered the death of his father, who was still an adult at that time.
"Well...... then," Cloney said, sitting on the top of the steps, "it was an endless fire...... We ......" she pursed her mouth slightly, "not even knowing who destroyed our settlement......"
This is the sorrow of the human beings in this world, even the people who destroyed themselves can't know, they only know that after a burst of fire, everything is gone, and all the ruins are displayed in front of their eyes.
"Really?" Tony's head was down, he had no words to comfort Cloney, he could feel Croney's despair slightly, "That'...... I'm sorry...... It's a bit of a chatter......" he waved his hand. He's been in that hut all along, but he came out without knowing why, and talking to Cronie may be an inexplicable attraction!
"And ...... Twenty days ......" Tony slanted at the virtual screen that appeared in front of him, "There are still big limits to teleportation across worlds......" He watched as his steel suit was placed in a large container, and the blue light flickered continuously, as if dragging it into the abyss of an unknown place.
"By the way, Tony, can you really mass-produce that steel gauntlet?" Cloni tried to change the subject, her eyes drifting to the side, as if thinking about something else.
"If Rick and they wait, I think I could make at least four or five of them!" Tony wiped his hair, and he habitually tried to reach for the wine glass he had, only to find that he didn't even have a table in front of him.
"Alas!" I have to say that when I came to this world, I was still a little melancholy after all, and I didn't have my favorite pepper, but ...... He looked at Cloney obliquely, and a different feeling rose in his mind, "That's it...... It's a bit like Pepper! A trace of emotion that inexplicably rose in his heart made Tony's heart a little flustered, but he was immediately pressed down.
The place where humans live is a place close to a cave, which is the result of Tony's recent field trips, the open air has been floating black ash on the ground, they have a great corrosive effect on human skin, and even with the increase of contact time, the damage to the human body will continue to deepen, it is simply like a natural disaster, extremely terrifying.
"It's really not easy for humans to live in this world!" Tony let out a long sigh of relief.
In the face of fifteen powerful races, the human race is simply a hellish level of difficulty without a helper, "Can we win?" Tony thought to himself, maybe human...... It was only at the last moment that they could truly unite, and Tony clenched his fists, a surging fire in his heart.
"Tony!" A young voice rang out from behind Tony, and the white-haired teenager stood and laughed softly.
"What's the matter, Rick, it's hard not to go out these days, why don't you take a good rest?" Tony has been here for days, and he's getting used to the harsh conditions, even if it's even tougher than the former terrorist base.
"......" Rick didn't answer Tony's question right away, he looked at his palm, and saw the resolute meaning in his eyes, Tony frowned.
"Is it because the food is so bad?" Tony held out a finger, he had a feeling of being hard to eat the food here, something like liquid dough that he could barely eat now.
"Do you think so?" Rick shook his head, "I'm just ......" his fingers clasped tightly at his side, "By the way, Tony, can you walk with me?" He said.
"Actually, it's okay, ......after all," he spread his hands, "I don't have much to do right now!" He smiled wryly.
"Thank you then!" Rick is more cheerful now than Tony first saw him, and probably ...... Is it because there were no dead people on the most recent expedition? Tony thought.
"Let's go to that cave!" Rick pointed to a dark place, "Why don't you go around?" ”
"To tell you the truth, I'm afraid I'd be happier if Clonie had told me to go!" Tony shrugged, his eyes looking at the red-haired girl, who seemed to realize something, and she dodged Tony's gaze, her face seemed to flash a hint of redness.
"Looks like my sister has a good sense of you!" There was a hint of relief in Rick's words, "Of course......" He picked up a wooden stick with an unknown crystal tied to it, and shook it into the water, and a bright light came from the crystal in his hand.
"Are you leaving?" Rick shook his head, a smile on his lips.
"Of course!" Tony had no reason to refuse.
The sound of clattering footsteps sounded in the silent cave, and Rick sat in a place where he could see the continent across from him, his eyes wandering.
"Tony, you're ......" was just sitting down when Rick suddenly said, "It's not from this world!" He looked at the boundless sky again.
"I ......" the countless words that I wanted to say from the bottom of my heart were stuck in my throat, "I ......" a hint of relief appeared in Tony's heart, "That's right, but ...... How do you see that? ”
"Habit, or ...... Mechanical thinking beyond the ordinary......" Rick closed his eyes, "and...... We have myths here ......"
"What?" Tony smiled lightly.
"The creator god came from outside the sky!" "If you ......," Rick said, he turned his head, "but I know you're not ......"
"I wish I was ......" Tony stood up, "if you can still trust me!" The glint in his eyes flickered.
"So?" Rick also stood up, "I'm going to go out the day after tomorrow because ...... That place...... I have a hunch......"
"Go ahead!" Tony chuckled, "I'm still pretty good at logistics!" He turned back, "Of course, if your companions need it, I can provide it too!" ”
