In the evening, at the bazaar, Elsa was caught by Elder Caligula's servants and took her home to take a bath.

"Goodbye, big dog!"

Elsa sat on the man's shoulder, reluctantly saying goodbye to the friend she had just met today.

The dirty, sloppy boy known as the big dog also waved his hand in her way, and when he smirked, snot came from his face, and his voice was muffled and hoarse.

He crouched on the ground and watched the girl disappear into the distance, his eyes sad, and a sad whine came out of his throat.

With one palm pressed on his shoulder, he pulled out a handkerchief and carefully wiped his nose clean. "Casper, are you having fun?"

Torre crouched down to look at him, watched the girl leave with him, and took his hand: "Let's go back, will we come to play with her next time?"

Casper looked at him in bewilderment, as if he understood what he meant, and laughed happily.

Follow behind my brother step by step.

Disappear into the crowd -

And just before closing the stall, the guest that Ye Qingxuan had been waiting for finally arrived.

"Yo. ”

Ye Qingxuan raised his eyes on the recliner: "It's only the third day, you're out of breath than I thought." ”

Colt sat across from him with a blank face, and the two looked at each other through the messy swords in the stall, their eyes as if they were with iron, and there was a faint chill when they rubbed together.

"When are you going to do it?" asked Colt coldly.

"If it's okay, it's okay to see the trial over. ”

Ye Qingxuan whistled: "Anyway, I was deceived by an unreliable guy, and I didn't think that I had to get the blessing of the 'emperor' at the beginning." The ancient materials I have obtained here are enough for me to study for several years, and I have been deceived from the Holy City of five or six awards and medals.

What am I not satisfied with as a scholar?"

"Sure enough. ”

Hearing him say this, Colt's eyebrows raised: "Caligula gave you the information."

That guy. I spent so much resources and money to see him, but he told me that the materials of Romulus's ancient history had been lost......"

"Sometimes, this kind of thing depends on fate. ”

Ye Qingxuan just smiled slightly: "What else do you have to do? If there is nothing to do, I will close the stall and go home." ”

The boy's words made Colt's expression gloomy again.

"Forget it, there's nothing to hide until now. ”

He said simply: "How about joining forces for the time being? This is a matter of mutual benefit." ”

"Except for the addition of the word 'temporary'. Your words seem to be a repetition of what you said to me the other day. ”

Ye Qingxuan crossed his legs and looked 'I'm not in a hurry': "Although there is one more word, it seems a little more open, but do you really think that the two of us joining forces can really break the ban of the 'Gate of Hades'?"

"Although the gate of Hades is powerful, it is the result of hundreds of years ago, and now, the theory is outdated, as long as everyone joins forces. It may not be impossible to crack it. ”

"Everyone?"

"Yes, everybody. ”

Colt said lightly: "All the trialists now understand that there is no point in any fight, so they decided to join forces for the time being. ”

Ye Qingxuan shook his head: "You also understand that in the excavation of ancient ruins, the number of people is meaningless. There are only three or five that can really make a difference.

In Romulus, there weren't many apocalyptic musicians. The only people who can really get on the stage and are good at interpreting and translating are you and me.

The Gates of Hades is a work that spans multiple factions. It is a strategic-level defense facility in itself. Two people, let alone cracking, can't even break the shell and access the alchemy matrix.

When the time comes, it will not be good to steal chickens, and it will not be good to throw the old book in. ”

Hear his words. Colt just smiled, took out a short sword from his arms, and showed Ye Qingxuan the music engraved on it: "What if you add this?"

Ye Qingxuan's gaze fell on the short sword in his hand, and his pupils couldn't help but shrink.

"'Anti-tune'?"

"Yes, 'anti-tune'. ”

Colt stroked the blunt blade of the dagger. With a slight tap on the spine of the sword, the blade trembled and made a piercing noise.

This is the 'probe' created by the ancient school of revelation for the large enchantments in the ruins, and although it looks like a short sword, it is actually a rare interpretation-type alchemy equipment.

Destroy the music theory with a counter-key, directly break the barrier of any defense matrix, and let the musician's sense go straight to the core.

The method of casting has been lost, and only six surviving counterparts remain.

And this is one of them.

Ye Qingxuan pondered for a moment and shook his head: "Although it is there, it is not a problem to destroy the defensive moment on the periphery. But with just the two of us, it's not enough. ”

"And what about me?"

A voice sounded, from behind Ye Qingxuan, and it was only at this time that Ye Qingxuan noticed that someone was walking towards him. Apparently unprovoked, the visitor stopped five paces away and stood still.

"Torre?"

Ye Qingxuan recognized this musician who had a relationship in the dungeon, and sensed that he could close it with a touch on his body, and he understood it.

"So you're a precept musician?"

Torre bowed slightly.

Ye Qingxuan finally understood why Colt had so much confidence.

Of the seven factions, the Forbidden School itself is best at music theory control, and Torre has also advanced the most proficient precept musician in all the forbidden factions who is good at countering movements.

With him, the three of them joining forces, plus the assistance of the rest, may not be impossible to crack.

Looking at Ye Qingxuan's thoughtful appearance, Colt bowed slightly: "How is it?"

"What is the success rate of the three of them?"

Ye Qingxuan raised his head and asked, "You must have calculated it." ”

"Fifty percent. ”

Colt said lightly: "In the worst-case scenario, the gate of Hades will self-destruct, and our army will be destroyed. ”

Ye Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, his pupils constricted: "Have you told the other participants?"

Colt glanced up at him and smiled.

Ye Qingxuan understood what he meant, and gasped.

"Don't you hate gambling?"

"Even the most sane person would occasionally crave the sound of the dice, and besides, I had a reason to bet. ”

Colt stared at him, his eyes were dark, like two deep caves, and darkness swirled: "Ye Qingxuan, this is the first time in my life to ask for help from others, and it is also the last time, don't let me down."

If you're really '50% sure to win', as you say, then why hesitate?"

"Hesitation? I'm the best at gambling on my life, so I never need to hesitate. All I need is an estimate. ”

Ye Qingxuan paused and raised his pupils, staring at him, smiling meaningfully.

"Colt, since you are willing to bet, what price are you willing to pay in order to get my share of the 'sure to win' here?"

The next day, early in the morning.

Outside the mine, Colt stood silently in front of the rift, staring into the darkness below.

It seemed to be pensive, but his pupils were not unfocused, but pierced straight and firmly into the darkness, and where he passed, the darkness disturbed, faintly revealing the outline behind him.

There, the heart was pounding, and all pretenses were slowly but surely revealed, and there was no more secret.

The light danced, faintly intertwining the rudiments of the huge mine cave and the dungeon. But the sharp dungeon seemed to be just the tip of the iceberg, stubbornly hiding most of its body in deep darkness.

The Gates of Hades are insulated from any detection or obstruction.

After trying again for a long time, Colt withdrew his gaze in disappointment, no longer wasting his efforts.

Behind him, a burly man in iron armor walked slowly.

Countless notes were inscribed on that hideous armor, and when they rubbed against each other, they burst into a low, sonorous sound. The only thing the burly man was exposed was his face, which was also tattooed with strange tattoos, looking gloomy and hideous, and his eyes were full of resentment and anxiety at the moment.

Around him, dust ignited and turned into fiery sparks, illuminating the dark streets before dawn.

"It's rare you're up so early, Gülen. ”

Colt looked back at his teammates, and the wind was light: "Is there something wrong?"

Gülen's expression was gloomy, and he asked bluntly, "You gave that Oriental imp the right of first exploration?"

"Yes. ”

Colt bowed: "After the gate of Hades is opened, they have the right to choose three things in the dungeon first. ”

"Why!"

Gülen suppressed his anger, took a step forward, looked down at Colt, who was a head shorter than him, and paused word by word: "I need an explanation, Colt." ”

Colt looked at him lightly: "I said, things in the team, listen to me." I know that there are many people who are dissatisfied with this matter, but there is no room for negotiation. ”

"Why is the result of our desperate struggle being picked by another person first?"

"Because without His words, your efforts would have been fruitless. ”

Colt glanced at him and said in an admonishing tone, "Gülen, there are so many people in the world who have worked hard, but very few have been rewarded. Being able to make an effort to get a harvest is already the pride of the sky.

But here, the geniuses of the whole West are gathered, and why should you ask for your efforts to be rewarded?"

Glenn's teeth rubbed together and he made a voice as hoarse as gold and iron:

"He's nothing without us!"

"You care what you get in there, but he doesn't. ”

Colt said lightly: "The posture he put on is to sell his ability for a price, and the longer it drags on, the more benefits he can obtain." The Orientals say, 'Those who wish to take the bait', and all those who want to get that emperor's laurel need him to open that door for themselves." ”

Gülen's eyes narrowed, and a cold light flashed: "After pushing the door open, he's useless, right?"

"I advise you not to have undesirable ideas. ”

Colt glanced at him and sneered, "Do you think you can match Gavin?" )
