The two men confronted each other, one smiling, the other expressionless.

At their sides, rancid flies flew up and down, and bones marched in the distance, like a pale torrent crushing the burning hell.

The firelight reflected the faces of the two men.

After a moment, it was Yamashita who spoke first: "I can't believe you. ”

He said this very frankly: "I think you should also understand that the trust between the two of us is actually quite weak in such an occasion. ”

In this regard, Xu Xiangyang smiled: "Yes, it is true. But what can you do? ”

He pointed to the bottom of the mountain, "What other way can you avoid Anubis's gaze besides me?" What other way do you travel through hell and the real world besides me? ”

Looking at the mountain, the smile on Xu Xiangyang's face gradually converged: "Isn't this the reason why you came back?" Because you know very well that I am your only lifeline. ”

Listen to his words.

Yamashita had a slight smile on his face: "No." ”

He slowly walked in front of Xu Xiangyang, and looked directly at the pale young man with his eyes: "I have thought a lot during this time, first of all, I think I have figured out one thing. ”

"That's actually more troublesome than me."

The middle-aged man's elegant face was full of gentleness: "Because since you have the means to send me out of here, then of course you yourself have a chance to leave." I don't think I can send people out of this 'hell' so easily, but I don't leave myself with anything to rely on. And the fact that you still have the means to send me here again is all the more proof of that. ”

"So there's only one answer – you don't want to leave this place for some reason, not that you can't."

Listen to him.

The expression on Xu Xiangyang's face became more and more gloomy.

And this made Yamashita can't help but show a light smile like victory.

He turned around and looked at the myriad ghosts who seemed to be in the world of flames: "Combined with what you said before, you were cast into this place because you deceived the truth. I think your 'deception' is probably even bigger than I thought, so that even if you can obscure Anubis's vision, you still dare not leave this place. ”

"So you're in a more troubled situation than me."

Turning around, Yamashita spoke calmly: "You want to ask about the knowledge of Sequence 2 because you are Sequence 3, right?" You want to break through the situation in front of you through promotion. But you can't leave on your own, so you have to find someone to help you gather information. ”

"And the conditions for going to hell aside, since you saw me in such a hurry, I guessed that it would be difficult for someone like me to walk through hell normally. Otherwise, you don't have to be so eager to negotiate a deal with me. So to sum up......"

The finger dotted on Xu Xiangyang in front of him.

Yamashita finally laughed heartily: "Like you said, you are my only reliance, and I am also your only straw!" ”

"I'm afraid you won't find anyone else who can help you gather information other than me! And if you can't find information, you'll have to hide from the Lord of Truth for the rest of your life! ”

After his voice fell.

Hearing this, Xu Xiangyang finally couldn't help it, his face sank like water, and his face was gloomy.

The scene at this moment is the opposite of when Yamashita was just entering hell.

At that time, it was Xu Xiangyang who was smiling, and Yamashita had a gloomy face, but now the expressions of the two have changed.

The only thing that remains unchanged is the calm hearts of the two people.

After a long time.

Xu Xiangyang said slowly: "It seems that I am too anxious." ”

As he spoke, he spread out his hands helplessly, and then sat directly on the mountain of corpses piled up next to him: "Oh, is it because I've been alone for too long, so after seeing a normal person appear, I couldn't control my mood for a while?" ”

Sighing and shaking his head, Xu Xiangyang's face seemed to be quite remorseful.

And Yamashita is a friendly smile.

He didn't care about the dirty sea of blood next to him, and sat directly next to Xu Xiangyang: "So the two of us are actually on one side." ”

He stretched out his hand towards Xu Xiangyang: "You are my only hope, and I am your lifesaver." Aren't we natural allies? ”

On this mountain of withered and bloody corpses, that hand seemed so white and abrupt.

And in the words of the mountain, there is a bloody aura that is no different from this burning flame: "We will not betray each other compared to others." At least until we find an alternative, we simply can't leave each other. Unless you want to be heeded by the truth, Anubis looks at me again. ”

"What could be a stronger alliance than holding the other's life in your hands?"

Hear the words.

Look at the outstretched hand in front of you.

Xu Xiangyang was silent for a moment, and then a smile appeared on his face again.

"You're right," he said, holding out his hand, "indeed, there is nothing more solid than this...... It's a partnership! ”

The two hands were clasped tightly together, and the two men looked at each other.

There was the same friendliness in his eyes.

It's like really seeing the other party as your "only" ally.

Soon, Yamashita and Xu Xiangyang withdrew their hands at the same time.

"So now that we're allies, let's talk about each other."

This time, it was Xu Xiangyang who spoke first: "After all, I have been hiding here for a lot of time, so I don't know much about the situation in the outside world. If you're willing to exchange information with me, then I don't mind telling you something. ”

Of course, Yamashita is happy to see this.

He also guessed that Xu Xiangyang might have stayed here for some time, and there was a big difference between the other party's appearance and clothing and the style near the shelter, so he was afraid that it was not his own.

Therefore, he is also looking forward to getting information from the other party, as long as it is not too critical: "No problem, what do you want to ask." ”

Soon Xu Xiangyang threw out a question: "What time is it?" ”

Yamashita replied quickly: "If you're asking about the time, then I can only say that I don't know either." ”

"There may be similar chronologies elsewhere, but I don't have them there."

Yamashita's face was calm: "Because it is the most chaotic and fragmented place in the world, and countless shelters are located on the loess, and they have not been unified into a strong federation. The people in the various shelters are only concerned with infighting, and there is almost no communication with the outside world, so naturally there is no habit of chronicling. ”

Hearing this answer, Xu Xiangyang's eyebrows raised slightly.

He looked up and down the hill and smiled, "Looks like you have your own plans for your side?" ”

To this, Yamashita also answered quickly.

Probably because it wasn't secretive, he said cheerfully: "Of course." ”

"Scattered shelters can only bring strife, not to mention all sorts of horrific polluted creatures there. The humans who die with me every time are supposed to be important resources, but they are wasted. ”

"So I want to unify all the Vaults and create a federation. In this way, humanity has a foothold to survive in that place. ”

As he spoke, Yamashita glanced at his hand.

In the palm of his hand, countless sword wounds and scars were so hideous.

These are all "medals" that he has fought for many years.

Regarding Yamashita's answer, Xu Xiangyang was noncommittal.

He quickly threw out a second question: "How many sequence twos do you have over there?" ”

The question caused Yamashita to pause for a moment.

It's not that he's jealous, he's just recalling what he once knew.

After a while, he slowly spoke: "I'm not sure how much. After all, Sequence 2 is the honor of saints, and it is the hole card of countless refuges, and it is impossible to really say all of them. ”

"But when I was still in contact with other regions, I heard that there seemed to be a saying of the Twelve Saints in the outside world......

Hear the words.

Xu Xiangyang opened his mouth, as if shocked by the number in Yamashita's mouth.

He looked at the mountain in disbelief: "Take ...... Take less?!"

Looking at Xu Xiangyang's expression, Yamashita didn't know why, and there was no reason for a burst of darkness: "Twelve, what's wrong?" Didn't you have so many saints at that time? ”

It seems that this Xu Xiangyang is really an antique, and he doesn't even know how many saints there are now.

You know, this is some years of news.

And depending on what he meant, there weren't so many saints in his time.

So this also means that the Xu Xiangyang in front of him may have to be guaranteed for a hundred years without asking about the world, right?

After thinking about this.

At the same time, a wave of greed quietly rose in the heart of the mountain.

"Sequence three alone can survive here for more than a hundred years...... This guy probably has a great secret. ”

Not to mention his ability to take people on a journey between hell and reality.

Although the danger of hell is abnormal, even I feel the terrible pollution in it.

But if you can take people to jump in the two realms, then the opportunities contained in it are also endless!

If there is a way, he must get his means out from Xu Xiangyang.

If only there was a hole card of hell at the bottom of the mountain.

Then once the critical moment comes, he may not be able to release these terrifying corpses and resentful spirits, and then deal a devastating blow to his hostile shelter!

On the other hand, Xu Xiangyang also seemed to have recovered from the shock.

He looked at the mountain with a rather complicated expression.

After a long time, Xu Xiangyang sighed: "The change is really big." ”

There was some embarrassment in his tone: "Yes, after all, it's all over...... Finish. ”

I sorted out my emotions a little.

Soon, Xu Xiangyang regained his previous calm: "Yes, then now you start asking." ”

Yamashita has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

He looked at Xu Xiangyang, and his face flashed with consideration.

After a moment, he slowly opened his mouth to the pale young man opposite.

"My first question was ......"
