When Zhang Chen woke up, it was still the same room, and there was no longer a shrill gunfire all around, and everything seemed quiet and peaceful. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 Info endured the burning pain in his arm and straightened up, and he found that Xinyan and Liu Weiqiang, who were not far away, were also lying on the ground and falling asleep. Then, he noticed that Zhao Boyuan, who was standing on one side of the wall, was smoking a cigarette and looking at him with complicated eyes.

"Are you awake?"

"Is there any smoke?"

The two spoke at the same time, Zhao Boyuan was slightly stunned and smiled. He said lightly, "Oh, yes." Then he handed one to Zhang Chen, and his movements were a little timid.

The two of them fell silent, just smoking cigarettes to themselves.

After a while, "Well, it doesn't matter ..... your injuries, right?" Zhao Boyuan seems to be looking for a topic intentionally or unintentionally. Zhang Chen found that his condition was a little different from Fang Cai, his clothes on his body seemed to be roasted by fire, and his face became more red than before, and he shook his head.

"You killed the armored man, and as for the three of us who were unconscious, you did it too, tell me, why! What secrets do you have that we can't see? Zhang Chen's eyes suddenly became extremely aggressive, firmly locked on the other party, as if there was the answer he wanted in those erratic pupils.

As if he hadn't heard this, Zhao Boyuan began to tell his story.

"Once, there was a young man of 20 years old who came to her city alone because a woman gave up her million-year-old job......"

"Bang-" A heavy punch hit Zhao Boyuan in the face.

"I'll ask you again, who are you!" Zhang Chen's voice was low and terrifying.

Zhao Boyuan wiped the blood oozing from his nose, but did not stop, "He became a courier, and he was just a small courier." I get up early and work late day and night, all day long, cautious but also survived. Until one day, when he came home from vacation, he saw a scene that made him collapse......"

"At that time, she said to him, 'Poor ghost, the money earned by the old lady sleeping all night has caught up with your monthly salary, and you can also earn an old lady if you have the ability?' Since then, he has rarely trusted others, especially women. Zhao Boyuan laughed at himself, spit out a puff of smoke rings, and his eyes were full of loneliness.

"And then there's what happened after I came here, Zhang Chen, I once told you that I came from the -52nd floor! This statement is actually also true. To be precise, I've been to the -52nd floor more than once. ”

"What does that mean?"

"Scarlet Capital." Zhao Boyuan's mouth was mixed with awe and inexplicable emotions and shouted out the name of the place that heralded the end of all darkness, "That is my final destination, and it is also the place where you will go." It's a more absurd and cruel place than here, but it's also the only way to get out of here. ”

Zhao Boyuan paused when he said this, and then added in a voice that he could only hear himself: "It is also the road of revenge that I am about to embark on!" ”

"I don't think the name of the place you said has any necessary connection with what you did, Zhao Boyuan, if you still treat me as a brother, tell me everything, what I want to know is not to conceal, but the truth!" Zhang Chen lowered his voice and spoke, with a gloomy expression like a hungry wolf.

"Your eyes are really terrifying." Zhao Boyuan smiled as if laughing at himself, "In fact, some things will be understood after you enter the Scarlet City, there, the strength of the individual is too insignificant, if you want to live with dignity, you need to form a team with both scale and strength, all members help each other, take the so-called upward elevator together, and spend each floor of the elevator world in the form of breaking through, which is also what I have always dreamed of." ”

"Until one day, I joined a team, a group that seems to get along well and its strength should not be underestimated......." Speaking of this, Zhao Boyuan's face, which was gradually calming down, suddenly changed, as bleak as a dead corpse, and his tone suddenly increased a few points, becoming no longer like a hot-blooded man.

"However, it is ****** team that I trust, the team I am willing to entrust my back to, the partner I am willing to risk my life to save, who completely abandoned me and my faith!"

This sentence almost roared out of the mouth of Zhao Boyuan, who had a hideous face, and the ups and downs of his chest and red cheeks all showed how much damage this betrayal had caused to his body and mind.

"And then?"

"I stopped taking the elevator for the time being, and I told myself that I had to build a team and slaughter the beasts. During this time, I was constantly going back and forth between the -52nd and 47th floors, on the one hand, looking for talented companions, and on the other hand, collecting enough blood weapons. You know, when I saw that you were able to transform into a green blood vessel on the Lost Layer, my heart almost jumped, and from then on, I made up my mind that even if I was tied up, I would tie you into my team! ”

Zhao Boyuan re-lit a cigarette, the light of the fire shone on his extremely resolute face, and the smoke lingered around him, as if in response to the mournful tone.

"Until just now, when you fell into a coma, it was all done with a simple command from me. Drag each of you into the elevator in front of you, and I'll just have to go through the process of creating a party on my own. Zhang Chen, you may not know that the Scarlet City is very strict with this kind of contract team, unless the captain agrees, the team members have no right to change the team they belong to at will, originally, I was going to succeed......."

"But I can't do it, I can't convince my conscience, I know that this kind of thing will only get in the way here, but I can't do it, I can't do it! Man is really a very strange animal, obviously selfish, greedy, full of desires, easily influenced by the external environment, but always forcing himself to do those things that cannot be touched...... That's all you need to know about me......"

Zhao Boyuan said, pointing to the two parallel open elevators in front of him, "The one on the left leads to the -46th floor, and the one on the right leads to the Scarlet Capital, let's set off after thinking about it, the matter has come to this, I don'.......t want to be so selfish anymore!" Zhao Boyuan's expression darkened.

He knew that his confession of the relationship between the two was a complete break, although the two had not been together for a long time, and in such a special situation, it was not easy to find like-minded people, but at the moment of communication, the two seemed to never be able to return to the past.

"Tell me, how do you build a team?" Zhang Chen lowered his head, but every word he said was clearly conveyed to Zhao Boyuan's ears.

"What... What the? He suspected he had misheard.

"I only have one request, if you still believe me, I will be the captain of this team, your revenge, I will avenge you, everything that happened today, don't let Xinyan and them know for the time being!" Zhang Chen said, but his faint tone warmed Zhao Boyuan's heart on the side.

"Sometimes, I really doubt your age! It's up to you to be the captain, I don't have a problem. The team creation is carried out in the return elevator on the right, so let's talk about it when he wakes up, and besides, sorry! After Zhao Boyuan finished speaking, he bowed to Zhang Chen.

"Hypocrisy, I'm more curious than this, how did you kill the armored man? Don't tell me that with your less than two blood weapons, I won't believe it! Zhang Chen pursed his lips, and there was no lack of meaning in his words to squeeze the other party.

"Nothing escapes your eyes. This is my talent, how to put it, it's more complicated, there are many categories, in the Scarlet City, there is a special place for exchange, you can understand it as an ability in science fiction movies, okay, they woke up. ”

During the conversation between the two, Xinyan and Liu Weiqiang, who fell to the ground, also woke up one by one.

"What just happened? How could we....faint? Xinyan rubbed her temples, her voice still weak.

"It's all right." Zhang Chen said, carefully helping Xinyan up.

Liu Weiqiang on the side was not happy, and shouted crookedly: "If you don't bring such heavy relatives and friends, come and help someone!" ”

When Zhao Weibo heard this, he came to him happily, showed a malicious smile, and gritted his teeth: "Then you want me to help you?" ”

The fat man listened to it with a clever heart, his bulging head shook like a rattle, and he quickly sat up from the ground.

After a while, Zhang Chen explained to Xinyan and Liu Weiqiang about the establishment of the team, and of course some sensitive issues were brushed aside by him.

"I'm fine, I'll follow Brother Zhang Chen in the future." Xinyan grinned, revealing cute little dimples, her figure was already slender, with long flowing hair and a sweet smile, she still had the style of a mature girl.

Zhang Chen nodded, and turned to Liu Weiqiang, who suddenly became hesitant at this moment, "What about you?" ”

"I....I...."Liu Weiqiang hesitated, his big eyes drifted to the side from time to time to look fierce and vicious, and he cowered and didn't know how to answer.

"I won't be strong, and if you believe me, I can guarantee that as long as I'm alive, I won't leave anyone in the team behind. Think about it, would you have been able to get here without our help? Zhang Chen didn't have any intention of wooing, what he had was just the humble pity of the strong for the weak.

"It's okay to join..... but ..... me....I have one condition." The fat man swept Zhao Boyuan on the side and opened his mouth in a hurry.

Zhao Boyuan, who was originally unhappy with him, was about to have a seizure, but was stopped by Zhang Chen reaching out and stretching out his hand.

"Tell me about it."

"Can you....can you not put me in a group with Brother Boyuan when assigning tasks in the future....I'm afraid....pulling him back." The fat man cautiously said what was in his heart.

"Boy, you're quite self-aware, don't worry, you don't need to bring it up, I promise the two of us will definitely not be in the same group." That Zhao Boyuan laughed angrily, snorted coldly, and made his position clear.

Zhang Chen and Xin Yan looked at each other and smiled, feeling that Liu Weiqiang hesitated because of Zhao Boyuan, in fact, it is no wonder that he has such thoughts, all along, among all the people, only Zhao Boyuan deliberately couldn't get along with him, looking for his stubble everywhere, coupled with his serious expression that didn't need any disguise, it was completely shocked by this living treasure.

"You heard that, so you don't have any opinions, right?"

The three of them nodded their heads.

So, the four of them set off again, walking towards two elevators side by side not far away.........
