"If others find out, they will tear me into pieces."

Thorne stretched out his hand, smiled wryly, and gave Chen Yue a hard slap, officially forming an alliance.

Chen Yue laughed dryly and said: "Actually, you don't have to worry, there is no way to get in touch with the Free City here, so what you leaked is only me, and it will not attract those high-level apostles at all.

And I won’t take advantage of you. We will share the gains from the ancient ruins equally.”

Thorne perked up after hearing this. What he feared most was Chen Yue's exploitation. Without being able to win over the other party, he had already lost the initiative. And the behemoth standing behind Chen Yue made him unable to resist.

In terms of mentality, it can be said that this covenant is completely unequal. At this time, Chen Yue took the initiative to propose a half-and-half proposal. It was impossible and impossible for him to refuse.

"At that time, I still need you to help me cover up. Only if no one expects that I am an apostle and does not know my background and true strength can we gain the greatest benefit." Chen Yue's eyes flashed with an inexplicable light and he ordered.

.

Thorne nodded in agreement. The forces that came to excavate ancient ruins all knew each other. The only variable was Chen Yue. Even if those treasure-hunting forces tried to break their brains, they would not have thought that an apostle would sneak in.

.

However, when Thorne raised his head and glanced at the suspended blade beast, there was still one thing he couldn't figure out.

"To be honest, the life aura of your familiar is not conspicuous. There is no need at all... Ah, do you have other familiars?"

Halfway through, he suddenly reacted, his eyes suddenly shone with a frightening light, and at the same time, his mind was spinning rapidly.

As far as he knew, if you want to become an apostle, you must summon a familiar, and the star level of a familiar cannot exceed the level of an apostle. In other words, any apostle must have a one-star familiar. Chen

Is it this familiar that is the more secretive?

"No, that's not right." The ability of a one-star familiar is limited. No matter how special the ability is, due to the huge gap in strength, it can be completely ignored at the fifth level. But looking at Chen Yue's attitude, I doubt that the familiar's ability is

strong ability.

"You also have a two-star familiar?" Thorne took a breath, and was shocked by the conclusion he came to.

If you add the initial one, you will have three familiars. Thinking of this, Thorne's eyes looking at Chen Yue were inevitably a bit shocked.

"If this person cannot be killed in his growth stage, then he must not be an enemy." Silently, he made a decision in his heart.

Looking at Thorne's expression, Chen Yue knew that he had misunderstood, but this misunderstanding was beneficial to him and he would not expose it.

"Well, my apostle is very special. Although its level is not high, its ability is very strong." As he spoke, Chen Yue started to get excited.

"Although you haven't seen it, you have heard of it."

"Have I heard of it?" Thorne was shocked when he heard this. A question mark appeared on his face. He couldn't think of a time when he had seen this mysterious familiar. Besides, even the familiar

He also just met the owner Chen Yue.

"Well, um, actually my other familiar is the leader of this group of monsters." A blush flashed across Chen Yue's face, and he told the answer to the riddle with some hesitation.

"You mean, that rabbit is your familiar?" After thinking about Chen Yue's words, Thorne's face suddenly became extremely exciting, turning green and white.

Chen Yue nodded.

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became strange.

After a while.

"I xxxx..." Thorne suddenly stood up, and a series of "Fuck, fuck" sounds burst out from his mouth, with a depressed look on his face.

Chen Yue wisely shut his mouth.

After venting his anger, he sat down slumpedly, looking at Chen Yue with a look that sounded like he was gritting his teeth...

"Is it true that we, who are working so hard to survive, are all being played by you?"

Chen Yue sweated profusely when he heard this, and raised his eyes with a wry smile to look directly at Thorne.

"You think I'm this kind of person?"

Seeing the sincerity in his eyes, Thorne shook his head bitterly.

"This is what happened..." Chen Yue sighed, starting from the fact that he fainted due to a breakthrough and was afraid of being poisoned by someone, so he gave the killing order to the frozen rabbit, and told the story exactly. Of course, because

He fainted in the middle and measured many things by himself.

After listening to this, Thorne suddenly changed his color.

"So, those adventurers knew that the brains of the monster group were the familiars, and they still coaxed us to die? Good kill, haha. It turns out that I was still a little guilty, but now I feel completely at ease."

He laughed heartily, and the original shadow was swept away. He was not a murderous madman, and according to the situation, his mercenary group was not in danger of extinction. Naturally, he felt a little guilty for killing those people, but

At this moment, after listening to Chen Yue's analysis, my heart melted away.

Chen Yue did not laugh, but began to think quietly.

"Thorne, have you noticed that we have stayed here for so long, but no more monsters have come?"

Thorne was shocked when he heard this: "Yes, there are Uri and the others, why haven't they come over yet?"

The two looked at each other and saw a faint uneasiness in each other's eyes.

Normally, the two of them had been communicating for a while, and Uri should have found the others and returned to the camp long ago. However, not only them, but even the Warcraft didn't come over, and something obviously happened.

"The Frozen Rabbit's intelligence is not low. If it keeps retreating, then it must think that it is inconvenient to meet. In that case, it will not drive the monsters towards this direction." Chen moved his fingers consciously in the air.

Yue's mind was spinning rapidly: "Without my latest order, the previous order would have taken effect, but those adventurers have been killed, and even the bodies have been buried. It is impossible to find them again.

So, what will it do?"

A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, Chen Yue's body trembled, and his handsome face turned pale.

He stood upright.

"No, my familiar will probably attack Uri and the others."

Thorn's whole body was shaken, and he also thought about this possibility. For him, if a few key members who were as close as brothers all died here, even if he obtained the ancient ruins, it would be meaningless.

The more critical the situation, the more calm is needed. Taking a deep breath, Thorne turned this possibility over in his mind and said decisively:

"No, if they were just being surrounded, they would have fought hard to break out. However, we didn't hear any sounds of fighting at this moment, which shows that this is not the case. I know them very well, and the only possibility is that they have full strength.

Only with the certainty can you be so stable."

"In other words, they have strong support?" Chen Yue added.

Thorne nodded solemnly.

Strong reinforcements? Most of the backbone members of the Snow Goose Mercenary Group are already there, so the only possibility is outsiders.

Reconnecting with what Thorne said before, Chen Yue thought: "Thorne, you said that several forces have learned the secret of the treasure. How did you agree?"

"Xue Yan is the first family to arrive, but they are not too late. I'm afraid they have already arrived at this moment." Thorne realized, "You mean, they are the reinforcements?"

With a sneer, Chen Yue slightly twitched his lips: "My familiar made such a big noise, how could it not attract attention? As far as I know, there is a fifth-level monster nearby. The previous monster group incident,

It will naturally not participate, not to mention those individual adventurers. Even if they want to participate, they have to weigh their own weight. Then, the only ones who are likely to participate are those forces with fifth-level professionals."

As if to verify Chen Yue's guess, the roars of the monsters that kept ringing suddenly disappeared, like a bucket of cold water suddenly poured on a blazing fire, and the world was filled with a strange and abnormal atmosphere.

.

Suddenly, in the deep dusk, like a volcano exploding, a bright, blood-like fire slurry rose into the sky, rising to an altitude of two to three hundred meters. The entire sky burned, and the powerful magical power directly split the sky into

Dozens of pieces, the fire slurry dispersed along the cracks, like a large burning net, covering half of the sky.
