Ruoxue and I quietly looked at the campfire in front of us in our room, waiting for the sun to sink into the earth.

We are the same as before, it seems that nothing has changed.

"Zhichun ......" Jiang Ruoxue slowly raised her head and looked at me.

"What's wrong?"

"Remember what I told you before, that beautiful girl?" She asked.

"Yes." I nodded.

"She's also at the Mouth of Heaven now." Jiang Ruoxue picked up an iron rod and tinkered with the bonfire, "I want to join the 'Heaven's Mouth'." ”

I paused slightly, and then I started to get nervous.

I don't understand what this sentence means.

Is it "quitting"?

I hurriedly lowered my head, picked up a stick from the ground, and tried to suppress my emotions as much as possible as she tried to tinker with the candle flame.

The air was so quiet that only the crackling of the campfire could be heard.

Wakayuki ...... Want to quit?

"What do you think?" Jiang Ruoxue asked again.

My hand froze in the air for half a second, then squeezed out a smile and said, "Ruoxue...... You yourself said that your original intention was not to establish the "Extreme Path", but to help me, and now that the "Extreme Path" is on the right track, Brother Yang is also moving forward steadily according to his own plan, and everything seems to be fine...... So it's okay if you want to "quit" now, and besides, "Heaven's Mouth" is really good, there is a huge "goodness" there, and you also said that you like that girl very much, so ......."

"What kind of mess ......?"

Jiang Ruoxue blinked and looked at me with a puzzled expression.

"Hey......?"

"Why did you get better, why did you "quit"? What kind of huge "goodness" is there with me...... Whose boogers did you eat......? ”

"W-What?" I also didn't understand it anymore, "What am I doing eating other people's boogers?!" Didn't you just say that you wanted to join the "Mouth of Heaven"......? You're not trying to tell me about "quitting"? ”

"Sick." Jiang Ruoxue pursed her lips helplessly, "Did I join the 'Heavenly Mouth' and I was a 'Pole' myself?" Which law says that if I join the "Heavenly Mouth", I must quit the "Extreme Path"? Can't I go and have fun? Why do you think crankily all day long, a social fear child? ”

"When am I! I......! ”

"What are you? You're going to fire me? ”

"What am I going to do with you!"

God, I'm really going to be by Jiang Ruoxue, she definitely did it on purpose!

"I don't care, you just ate boogers." Jiang Ruoxue said with a wicked smile, "There is a saying in my hometown that if you eat boogers, you will become stupid. ”

"I want to hit you......" I said speechlessly.

"Wrong, wrong."

Jiang Ruoxue smiled, and then her face gradually quieted down.

"Seriously, Zhichun, that girl is the same kind of person as me and Aunt Tong."

Seeing that she was so serious, I couldn't joke anymore: "Same kind of people...... What is ......? ”

Her "echoes." Jiang Ruoxue stared at the bonfire and said, "According to what I have seen and heard, there are not many "echoes" that can change a person's fate or circumstances in the "Land of the End", and that girl is one of them. ”

"Who is she?"

"Strong luck." Jiang Ruoxue said, "It's a tool that I only heard once, and I knew how powerful it was." Whether it is me or Aunt Tong, our abilities have obvious "drawbacks", after all, "causes" may not lead to the "effects" we want most, and karma may not be able to give blessings. But "strong luck" is different, it will make its owner invincible. ”

I know that Jiang Ruoxue is right, in fact, it is not only her and Aunt Tong's "echo" that has drawbacks, but even mine.

If I want to control the other person, I have to do the same thing as the other person, and although this ability keeps me from being in danger, it is not completely safe.

Besides, if I want the other party to be controlled by me, then I must let the other party hear my voice.

What if the other party is deaf?

"So you joined Heaven's Mouth to recruit her?" I asked again.

"Yes." Jiang Ruoxue nodded, "I want that girl to join the 'Extreme Dao'." But the situation is not optimistic, because the concept of "Extreme Path" is completely opposite to "Heaven's Mouth". We will try our best to protect the "Zodiac", but the "Heaven's Mouth" will do whatever it takes to bet the "Zodiac", I have to say that Chu Tianqiu is more intelligent than Nie Bei, he is constantly sending people to collect the "human-level" game strategy, when the time is almost ripe, he will write down the detailed gambling method to the participants in the organization, and then a multi-person team will be dispatched to bet on the "Zodiac", and after betting to death the "Zodiac", Chu Tianqiu will send someone to take away the opponent's "Zodiac" mask, eliminating the possibility that others can become the "Zodiac". ”

"Collect the Raiders...... I see. I said, "But what about the 'Ground-level' game?" This kind of game will cause a lot of "casualties" even if it is collecting strategies, not to mention gambling on your life. ”

"He should have thought of it a long time ago." Jiang Ruoxue said, "As far as I know, the 'Heavenly Mouth' has not attacked any 'prefecture-level zodiacs' so far, and their target is only 'human-level'. ”

Didn't ...... any "prefecture-level zodiac"?

How did the sheep die here?

My mood almost started to mess up again...... Could it be that the sheep were not killed by the "mouth of heaven", but someone else ...... them?

Or is it really as I guessed...... There is no such thing as a sheep in the world?

But I have to say...... From a macro perspective...... That man named Chu Tianqiu did a good job.

The path he chose was flawed and useless at first glance for those who were not familiar with the place, but anyone who knew anything about the "End Land" would find it to be extraordinarily reasonable.

Suppose there is an ideal scenario...... That is, all the five cities adopted Chu Tianqiu's method, only attacking the "human-level zodiac", killing all the "human-level" in a stable and united manner, and then taking away the masks......

Theoretically, there will never be a new "human-level zodiac" here, and the other "participants" will refuse to wear "masks" for fear of being targeted collectively.

Without the "human level", it proves that there will be problems in the transportation of personnel at the "interview room" and "prefecture level".

The "zodiac" will begin to diminish in a real sense.

At this time, each leader organized the elite and strong, and aimed the spearhead at the "ground level", killing one person and one less person.

Chu Tianqiu was not bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, picking on the "human level" to attack, but cutting off the enemy's troop supply from the bottom, otherwise he would not have to take away the mask.

It's a pity that his strength alone is too small.

He should have expected other cities to have people who think the same way as him to make the same decision, but he didn't know that this was the only healthy city left.

His method was perfect, but it was used at the wrong time, in the wrong place.

"It's a pity," I said with a sigh...... "It is said that the times make heroes, but this hero lost to the times." ”
