Anime Crossover: A single ranking exposed the world

Page 262

Under such harsh conditions, Kanzaki Teru knew very well that they could not possibly escape unscathed.

The environment here is far from friendly enough for a few people who are practically defenseless to survive easily.

Cold weather, harsh environment, and hordes of dangerous creatures.

If you really want to list them all, the dangers are too numerous to count, but even so, Kanzaki Teru still chose this place.

Moreover, although they had only met once, Kanzaki Teru had already figured out almost everything about this person's personality.

Generally speaking, he wouldn't do anything dangerous, especially since he had already agreed, which doesn't seem like the kind of person who would be fickle.

"No problem, I understand, but then there's still one problem that needs to be solved, isn't there?"

"Problem? What problem?"

"That's of course..."

-

"What? You don't need to worry at all."

He pulled his phone out of his pocket and seemed to be fiddling with something; the speed at which his fingers swiped was something no normal person could do.

"Phew—done!"

As she finished speaking, Kanzaki Teru's phone suddenly rang.

I opened my phone and saw a notification that a house purchase had been successfully completed.

There were even other things on it, but what concerned Kanzaki Teru the most was the content on it.

"Hey, hey, hey, seriously? Just how reckless are you?"

"Hehe, it's okay, I have money anyway."

He gave this reason, which was hardly a reason at all, and Number Ten didn't seem to care at all; you couldn't tell that he had just bought a house.

-

"This is my house! Why are you here too?"

He pointed to another person at the table, his tone sounding very dissatisfied.

·· ···Request flowers······

Even so, it is still expressed in the most ordinary way.

The fact that they had no intention of taking direct action reassured Kanzaki Teru.

After all, if a fight breaks out here, Kanzaki Teru isn't confident he can afford to pay compensation.

Of course, if that time really comes, Kanzaki Teru will definitely make Number Ten pay the compensation.

"I don't trust you. What on earth are you plotting, you monster?!"

Despite being in a completely disadvantageous position, Pinzi still used sharp language, almost interrogating the other party in a way that resembled interrogation.

........ ........ 0

"Pinzi, do you... have nowhere else to go?"

Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru's question, Pinzi suddenly froze on the spot, but only for a moment.

"How, how is it possible!"

However, this panicked behavior was a self-incriminating admission, and Kanzaki Teru didn't say it on a whim.

After all, there are already many indications that Kanzaki Teru simply put these contradictory elements together, which is why he was able to arrive at this answer.

However, it is quite obvious that this answer is the correct one.

Kanzaki Teru was surprised that he could guess the correct answer so quickly, so he didn't know what to say for a moment.

"After all, you clearly had so many places you could take me, but you chose a remote mountain forest. It doesn't make any sense."

Furthermore, combat suits aren't something you can just use casually, and your identification document is probably fake too.

"No, I didn't forge the documents; they've just become decorations." Xi.

Chapter 441: The Decision of Reasons

Hearing her say that, Kanzaki Teru probably guessed the reason.

What about those who acted alongside you?

"They are just mercenaries; they don't belong to any organization."

"You really went to a lot of trouble... Why did you go to such lengths?"

If it were you, with your abilities, you should be able to earn a decent salary, but you chose this path instead.

Kanzaki Teru had personally witnessed Pinzi's strength, although there was still a considerable gap between them.

However, judging by the average person's standards, Pinzi's strength is definitely top-notch.

Although there are different levels among the top tiers, it is already extremely difficult to even get into that tier.

However, this was the first time Kanzaki Teru had seen someone like Pinzi, since very few people would go to such lengths, even at the cost of their own lives.

The world is vast, and Kanzaki Teru understands this principle, so he approaches many things with an open-minded attitude.

Pinzi was clearly unaware of such things; she had her own obsessions and her own ideas, which made her different from ordinary people.

Actions driven by the desire for revenge are fundamentally different from actions taken in accordance with one's inner thoughts.

"May I ask you about [permanent]?"

This wasn't said to Number Ten, but to Pinzi.

After all, one's own account is bound to differ from that of an observer.

"Huh? Why don't you just ask her? Why ask me?"

Her tone was full of dissatisfaction, and it was clear that she did not understand what Kanzaki Teru was trying to express.

"Well, don't say that. After all, I know very little about this kind of thing, so I wanted to ask you about this world."

Let's start by talking about your background and how you connect; it's always more comfortable than being with a complete stranger.

"Are you trying to get close to me? Let me tell you first, this kind of thing won't work on me."

Pinzi said this to Kanzaki Teru with a look of disgust, then picked up her chopsticks and put the food on the table into her mouth.

It's rather ridiculous that these people, who would normally fight at the first sight of each other, are now sitting at the same table because of food.

"After all, your identity is also a mystery to me. In my eyes, you are almost no different from this person. Do you want me to think that you are the same as her?"

Kanzaki Teru deliberately used this provocation tactic, pointing to number ten who was eating with relish nearby.

This tactic clearly worked, since this is probably the most unacceptable thing for Pinzi.

"Hmph, I am an S-class operative and unmanned mechanic."

"Even an S-class representative was instantly defeated by Number Ten."

"Did you do this on purpose?!"

He slammed his hand on the table, but Number Ten was clearly unaffected and continued to enjoy his food.

Completely ignoring the conversation between Kanzaki Teru and Hinako, all that mattered to her now was the food in front of her.

"No, no, you don't need to get so worked up. Let's start by talking about the basics."

"What do you want to know?"

"What exactly is 'permanent'?"

Upon hearing Kanzaki Hikaru's question, Pinzi glanced at Number Ten, who was eating nearby, and then sighed helplessly...

"Is this really the result? Oh well... The permanent truth is top secret."

If you realize this, you won't be able to return to a peaceful daily life. Are you truly aware of this?

"At this point, is it still necessary to say such things?"

Besides, I've long since lost the ability to return to a peaceful daily life, I'm already...

A rare hint of loneliness flickered in Kanzaki Teru's eyes; since five years ago, he had remained completely alone.

Everyone who approaches him has a different purpose; he has never met a like-minded friend.

But Kanzaki Teru had long been prepared that only he could walk this path, even if it was full of thorns.

This couldn't stop him from continuing, but it all seemed very strange.

"That thing... those are immortal beings that are not human, you saw their regenerative ability too, right?"

"So what exactly is going on here?"

This time, Kanzaki Hikaru didn't just ask Pinzi a question on May 1st, but also posed the question to Number 10.

Kanzaki Teru clearly understood that her words had reached Number Ten's ears, but she obviously had no intention of replying.

He was just eating quietly, but his expression was somewhat absent-minded.

"A monster with a human-like appearance, a biological weapon secretly manufactured by a certain country..."

This kind of conjecture has appeared many times, but no one knows where this information or news came from.

It's impossible to verify this, as almost all the relevant data has been deleted.

Chapter 442: A Sense of Conflict

Hearing her explanation, that sense of contradiction resurfaced.

Even if everything she said is true, it doesn't explain these problems.

"But if that's the case, then at least some traces will be left, it's impossible for there to be no traces at all."

No matter what kind of information it is, once it appears on the internet, it will definitely leave a trace.

Even a tiny piece of code can be permanently retained, and that is the most serious problem.

"That's generally true..."

His expression was somewhat frustrated, but it quickly turned into an angry stare at Number Ten.

However, seeing her somewhat naive expression, Pinzi calmed down a bit.
