Finding a way back to their "homeland" in this "foreign country" that seems to have died is undoubtedly the situation that the two are most concerned about.

I have to admit that the boy did throw out an excellent proposal, but this proposal made the two of them once again a little wary of his intentions. There is no doubt that almost all the Gentiles are eager to return to their homeland - and yet very few of them succeed.

It's not that they linger in foreign landscapes and don't want to return, it's just that the way back to their hometown is too difficult to find. Even if someone succeeds in using a summoning spell to open a "door" with the same conditions, they may not be able to use it to safely return to where they belong.

Taking a step back, even if the boy did have the means to get the two of them back to their original world, they couldn't be sure that his actions would help them. Reality is reality after all, and it is difficult to suddenly appear a mortal force falling from the sky when you are in a difficult situation.

"First of all, do you really have a solution?" Lizzie made no secret of her suspicions, closing her eyes and pointing at the boy, "You claim to be our 'friend', but after all, this is just your family's word - after all, we don't even know who you are. ”

When help is most needed, a powerful reinforcement suddenly appears to solve the problem, could it be the god who sent the stage with a mechanism? It's not that Lizzie is unwilling to use his power, but this excessive coincidence is so far-fetched that the doubts obviously overwhelm the rest.

The stage machine sends the gods...... For the teenager who suddenly appeared in front of her, she could only think of this word - no doubt. This is not a positive word. This term comes from the imperial Chinese language, and often refers to some unexpected, sudden, far-fetched relief role or. In many fictional third-rate works, when the plot becomes uncontrollable, such characters will appear on the scene to solve the siege.

This is especially common in classical dramas, when the protagonist is caught in a mortal dilemma, or when the tragic ending cannot be changed, there is always a sudden appearance of a powerful god to solve the puzzle and make the story self-justifying. At such times, theatres that staged plays often used elevated stage mechanisms to transport inferior actors who played gods to the stage—perhaps this is where the phrase originated in the first place.

True. This performance technique is completely artificial. Some commentators believe that this is just a clumsy trick to create a plot reversal that viewers feel unexpected. If you only think about the technique of the story, Lizzie is not very fond of popular novels that have this kind of unfolding.

"You two are as suspicious as ever......," the boy sighed deeply, then scratched his head as if in trouble. "Please don't compare me to that kind of clumsy theatrical role. After all, it was too rude for that guy. ”

Looks like he knows exactly what Lizzie is referring to. However, the rebuttal did not have much meaning to clarify his position. It seems that I feel like I'm saying too much that I don't have to do with it. It would be more effective to come up with evidence, and he suddenly pulled out a metal fragment from the pocket of his clothes.

It was a sword star crest made of red iron, a symbol of the Iron Mercenary - but it had clearly been struck by a great force. So much so that the entire badge is distorted. Not only that, but the badge looks as if it has been roasted by fire, and most of the surface is stained with smoke and fire.

All Iron mercenaries possess one of these badges as a status symbol, and the one that Ke Te is wearing on his chest at this time is one of them. He subconsciously touched the crest on his chest, and then carefully examined the sword star crest that the young man handed over with his hand.

It is extremely similar to all of its coats of arms, and if there are no signs of damage, it is no problem to say that it is exactly the same. Curt noticed a string of tiny words left in the scorch, which looked like his name - it was there that Curt had engraved his name at the time.

It felt different, but nothing was more familiar to Curt than this coat of arms. If it weren't for his badge still pinned to his chest, he might have wondered if the teenager had stolen his badge and displayed it as "evidence" after a little processing.

"Well, do you believe it this time? This badge was given to me by Leonster's husband, and it can be regarded as a testament to our relationship. ”

The boy smiled like a fox and narrowed his eyes slightly. Consistent with his own claims, he seems to have a certain understanding of the thinking patterns of both of them. Whether it is when it first appears or when it is now taken out of this sword star crest that seems to belong to Curt, he is using some ambiguous "evidence" to prove his words - maybe these may not be true, but it is also difficult to find valid words to refute.

"So...... What the hell do you want us to do?" Curt cracked his mouth and smiled, "Although some gods who descend from the stage mechanism will always help the protagonist unconditionally, I don't think you will help us unconditionally." ”

If you believe that the other party has good intentions, then it is not necessary to accept the help of the teenager. However, the so-called "reality" is often not so simple - since he knows what Curt and Lizzie want to obtain, he must know that this thing is extremely valuable to both of them.

Since it has value, it can be used as a traded commodity.

Sure enough, the young man showed a somewhat embarrassed expression: "Oh, yes, it really deserves to be a 'Calamity Raven', and I can see at a glance that I want to ask for your help with something." But that's fine, the premise is clear, and it's much easier to speak. ”

The boy seems to know a lot about what the two are trying to bury - including the "curse of immortality" that they are carrying. By the time we came to the Dominion, these pasts had long since become little known...... But he who said that he would officially meet in the future, but he knew a lot.

Curt inexplicably wanted to complain to his future self about why he would tell this strange guy in front of him about the past that he had decided to bury deep in the dark. Maybe there is some kind of opportunity to save zài...... Perhaps even Lizzie felt that she could report these situations to him.

One qiē will know later, so there is no need to inform one qiē now - the teenager always uses the same words to divert the direction of the subject.

"No, you've won the prize. To be honest, you don't have to make fun of me, I just don't think I have a chance to get the lead role in the drama. As he spoke, Curt shrugged his shoulders, "If you have any conditions, just say it directly and let us see it openly." ”

Originally, the "fair" transaction of equivalent exchange was almost exclusively theoretical, and the price of the original goods had different weights for different people. The "commodity" in the boy's hand is to help the two return to their original world, so what kind of price will he offer?

"Don't worry, husband Leernst, I've always disliked the lion's mouth, and now I'm just proposing a deal that will benefit both of us. The boy smiled slyly, "You want to leave this world with my strength, and I also need you to help me solve some minor problems." So we act together on the basis of mutual benefit, as we have always done -- what do you think?"

If you just listen to his side of the story, it doesn't seem to be an unreasonable request to use this as a trading condition, but Curt still cares about what the teenager calls "little trouble". A little concealed information is often the key point in the negotiation of the other party.

Curt was silent, just looked at the boy and motioned with a look in his eyes for him to continue. Liqi, who had been covered behind him, took a few steps forward, and a simple Rubik's cube lit up in her hand, undoubtedly to use that spell to identify whether the young man was mixed with lies in his words.

"It's just some Lizzie or something, so you don't need to be so tight. Seeing that the two of them treated themselves with a cautious attitude, the young man said with a smile, "I just want you to put this thing on the top floor of every stone tower in the city, after all, it is too tiring for me to do it all by myself." ”

As he spoke, the boy took out a large handful of gray crystals the size of his thumb from the pocket of his clothes, and then put them in front of the eyes of the two and shook them.

The dark gray crystals bear a strong resemblance to the surrounding crystals that enclose the dead remains, and are all slightly cloudy gray. A slight glimmer of light spilled from within, and one could feel that each of them was filled with a nice amount of magic, much better than the empty containers.

At the moment when the gray crystals were exposed to the air, the surrounding crystals seemed to be affected by the magic in them, and they resonated like wails one by one. Gradually, the gray light rippled in the frost-covered space, and even the air became agitated.

"What do you mean, it's just 'running errands'?" Curt glanced at the aperture in Lizzie's hand, and there was no obvious change in the wonderfully constructed Rubik's Cube, which showed that the boy was not lying, "If that's all the time, then it's no problem for us to help you." ”

The boy wasn't lying, but his "truth" wasn't necessarily complete - even though Lizzie's spells didn't guarantee to recognize everything he said. Curt pondered for a moment, then reached out and motioned for the boy to place the necessary gray crystal into his hand.

"By the way, there's one more thing that has to be explained beforehand. ”

The boy put the crystals into a small bag beside him and tossed them all to Curt as he said, "Although most of the things in this world have died with it, there are still some 'embers' that have not been burned clean and are dangling in the ruins of this city. It's okay if it's night, but when the sun comes out, some guy hiding in the dark should run out. ”

If you don't want to go head-to-head with them, then you two can only do your best - to the two who are about to leave, the young man said mysteriously. (To be continued......)
