After more than three days of rest, the hand of the torture blade no longer trembled.

The exercise is still simple, lift, chop; Lift, chop down; The most basic swinging training.

Sweat seeped out and penetrated through the gauze into the wounds on the blade's body. The pain irritated the nerves of the torture blade.

"Hey! Don't you want to die? Your bones aren't healed yet. A loud voice came.

Without looking back, the torture blade continued to wave the machete in his hand and said, "Only by moving can the bone cracks be congested and stimulate blood flow." This speeds up the recovery of the bones. ”

Hearing this, Yue Lan jumped down from the wall with a strange face, and said in surprise, "With your terrifying physical fitness, you can use such a crazy recovery method." ”

The torture blade didn't speak, his body suddenly froze, and then he saw a full moon sword light with a dazzling slash in midair.

Click!

A steel block was split in half. At the same time, the machete was also broken and scrapped.

Throwing away the hilt of the knife casually, the torture blade turned his head to look at Yue Lan and asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?" ”

"Haha, what are you afraid of?" Yue Lan laughed and said, stretched out her hand and pointed to the gauze on the body of the torture blade and said, "This is retribution." The other day, you covered me in gauze. I'm almost fine, and now it's you. ”

After listening to Yuelan's words, Xing Blade thought thoughtfully, and then said, "Maybe, the old hunter said, thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west of the river." That's what it means. ”

Yue Lan looked at the unfluctuating face of the torture blade, and suddenly asked, "Don't you have feelings?" ”

Torture Blade raised his eyelids and glanced at Yue Lan and nodded.

Yue Lan said with a clear face: "I'll just say it!" You're not quite the kind of cowardice who bullies the weak and fears the hard. ”

After tidying up the broken knives and steel blocks on the ground, the torture blade looked up at the wall where Yue Lan jumped over and asked, "You are also a member of the Seven Killing Division?" ”

"Me? Not yet. Yue Lan sat casually on a steel block, ignoring her white clothes.

"But right away, yes, this year's tryouts of the Seven Kills Division will start immediately, and I heard that at the suggestion of the dean, the tryouts and the college's graduation exam were put together. My father let me and my sister enter the Seven Killings Division as the first place. ”

Referring to the man who was like winter that day, Torture Blade said with a hint of seriousness, "Your father is very strong. ”

"Hahahaha" Yue Lan couldn't help but laugh when she heard Torture Blade's words.

Tortureblade looked up and asked, "Did I say something wrong?" ”

"Haha, no. It's just the first time I've seen someone say so seriously that my father is strong. Yuelan patted her knee and smiled.

Torture Blade wanted to touch the corners, but after touching the hollow, he could only knock on his bare skull and say, "I don't know much about the human world. ”

"The human world..." Hearing these five words, Yue Lan was very surprised.

Although surprised, he didn't ask much. It is very rude to ask about someone's privacy.

"Will you also participate in this competition?" asked Yuelan.

The torture blade squatted on the steel block, looked at him with both eyes and asked, "It was organized by Deng Heng?" ”

"Yes."

"Then participate."

"Are you interested in teaming up with me?" Receiving the affirmation of the torture blade, Yue Lan asked directly.

For Yue Lan's sudden invitation, Torture Blade was a little uncomfortable. He blinked and asked, "Why do you want to form a team?" The competition is also hunting, killing everyone else, and I am naturally the winner. ”

"It's sad." Yue Lan raised her hand to hold her forehead, and said helplessly to the torture blade, "It seems that you still don't know the rules of the game, right?" ”

"Tell me about it."

Yue Lan cocked Erlang's legs and said, "There is no individual in the mechanism of the competition, it is all based on the team. If you don't have teammates, you're not even eligible to participate. ”

"Teammates? That kind of redundancy is useless, why is there such a backward mechanism? Tortureblade asked rhetorically.

Yuelan Zhengse said, "Not everyone is like you, who has lived in the wilderness since childhood. And a person's energy and abilities are limited. Today, humanity can develop so far. It is inseparable from the close cooperation at the beginning. ”

"And!" Yue Lan stretched out her hand and stared at the Torture Blade and said, "If your teammates are as strong as you, you can imagine how powerful the five of them will be when they join forces to fight." ”

Torture Blade didn't follow Yuelan's meaning to imagine, and said directly, "There can't be five mes." I am unique. The old hunter told me this many times. ”

The metaphor was ineffective, and Yue Lan reluctantly got up and asked directly, "Then do you think my sister and I will become a burden to you?" ”

Torture Blade raised his hand and touched his bare head and said, "You two are very strong, but strong does not mean that you can survive. ”

"Hey!" Yue Lan sighed helplessly and said, "So, we need you." ”

"What do I get?" Torture Blade asked suddenly.

Yue Lan was stunned when she heard this, and then a trace of joy flashed in her eyes and said, "You have a grudge against that Spark, right?" He could interfere with you in this game, so we can keep you safe. ”

"Nope." Tortureblade shook his head and said, "I don't need your protection, Spark, I'm about to kill him, and your conditions are not valid." ”

Yuelan scratched her head helplessly and asked, "It means that there is nothing to talk about?" ”

Torture Blade glanced at Yue Lan's impatient expression, pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Has Yuehua reached the realm of the Apocalypse?" ”

"Ancestor!?" Yue Lan was stunned by this sudden question.

Torture Blade didn't speak, his eyes staring at Yuelan.

Yue Lan was stared at by the torture blade like this, and hurriedly said, "Not yet." ”

"Oh." Torture Blade nodded faintly, and then said, "Okay then, let's team up together." ”

"What?" Yue Lan never thought that the condition of the torture blade was actually a problem that this person knew well?

Ignoring Yuelan's surprised expression, Tortureblade got up and walked back to the house.

"The exam is held twelve days later. Tomorrow is the day of registration, so I'll put your name on my team. Yue Lan said loudly at the back of the torture blade.

Tortureblade nodded faintly, then walked into the house and closed the door.

In the evening, Tortureblade is summoned to her villa by Frannie.

In the living room with a quiet environment and a mild atmosphere, Deng Heng and Frannie sat on chairs, squatting next to the coffee table, picking up a chocolate bean and putting it in their mouths from time to time.

Deng Heng looked at the torture blade with a smile and asked, "Yuelan has been in contact with you?" ”

"En" Torture Blade nodded. Swallowing the chocolate in his mouth, Torture Blade looked up at Deng Heng and asked, "There should be something else this time, I feel something bad from Yue Lan's words." ”

Deng Heng put down the teacup and said, "The city is now mixed with unknown betrayers. The Coalition was anxious to find him. The Academy's competition was a decoy. Take out the alliance generation's living combat power as bait, and naturally you have to catch a big fish. Big fish are dangerous, so now all the contestants are constantly looking for strong teammates. ”

Frannie took over and said, "Although it is a competition, the danger is greater than the actual battle. Besides, it's not just a real fight, it's an opportunity to perform. All participants will be able to participate this time. How well they perform will directly affect the future prospects of the participants. ”

Tortureblade nodded, indicating that he understood, and asked again, "What is a ghost town?" ”

Deng Heng expected this question of the torture blade, and replied directly, "Ghost City, formerly known as Black Cloud City, the city of the abyss, is a steel city made of the strongest tungsten steel. Five hundred years ago, it was the second largest city after Apocalypse City at that time. It is located to the northwest of the Western Doomsday Plains, about three hundred kilometers away. ”

Frankini continued, "The news of the haunting of Cloud City has been circulating in the wilderness for more than two hundred years, but people have only taken it as a joke and not paid much attention. After all, disasters are rampant there right now. ”

"How did it fall apart?"

"Hey," Deng Heng sighed and said, "That time can be said to be a natural disaster." Two dragon clouds appeared near Black Cloud City at the same time, and during the siege, the two dragonmen who led the disaster fought. This led to an instant rage of massive disasters that had been restrained. Black Cloud City was also submerged. Of the seven million people in the city at that time, only a few hundred escaped. ”

"Then why is it called a ghost town?" Torture Blade asked expressionlessly.

Frannie took out a tablet and projected a stereoscopic image on the coffee table, saying, "A hundred years after the fall of Black Cloud City, a passing caravan inadvertently photographed a large number of translucent ghosts floating there. From time to time, the cries and screams of the people of the year can be heard. ”

Tortureblade stared intently at the image. Some of the dead humans can be seen wailing and struggling. Some of the manifolded people were also seen being driven by a large shadow and floating over the crumbling black walls.

Staring at the image, Torture Blade still asked expressionlessly, "After hundreds of years, why do you suddenly mention it now?" ”

Deng Heng knocked on his crutches and said, "The expeditionary force of the Broken Military Division has carried out a simple exploration when passing through Black Cloud City. It has been discovered that the cause of this phenomenon may be the Apocalypse Psionic Fragment. ”

"Apocalypse psionic shards?"

"Pure psionic crystallized remnants. It belongs to the highly pure substance left behind by the Apocalypse Protoss on Earth two thousand years ago. Our Spiritual Perception Technology comes from the Apocalypse Protoss, so any remnants of their material may have a huge impact on our technology. ”

After listening to Deng Heng's explanation, Xing Blade nodded, and all the doubts in his heart were solved.

Frannie went on to add: "We in the Rhodes family are mainly business-oriented, and rarely involved in politics and the military. Therefore, the Seven Killings Division has almost no manpower. There are good and bad things about such policies. But I don't want to be blank in that right now. I hope you can get involved with the Yue family and help our family gain a foothold in the Seven Killings. ”

When Torture Blade heard this, he easily agreed, saying, "Well, I know." ”

Deng Heng raised his hand and touched the bare head of the torture blade and said, "You are a ghost who can shock the world, I don't want you to be buried here." I want you to shine in this dim world. ”

The torture blade still pushed aside Deng Heng's rough big hand, got up and said, "I'm not interested in these, there is prey to hunt, it's fine." ”

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Leaving Frankie's villa, Tortureblade looked up at the dark sky and muttered, "Finally, we can hunt again." ”
