Dean couldn't help but want to lament the differences between people.
Some people shed tears before the exam, but some people can stalk others before the exam.
It's a world of difference.
But now, instead of sympathizing with Lucy, it was more important to solve the immediate trouble.
He took out the secret map Lucy gave him and tried to use new reasons to get rid of the trouble in front of him.
"Actually, I asked a friend for a map. This time I went out to follow the route on the map..."
"show me!"
Before Dean could finish speaking, Alpha took action and snatched the map from his hand.
Before Dean could react, the map had already passed through his fingertips.
So fast.
He narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but rub two fingers.
The touch of paper still seemed to remain on it, but the map had already fallen into Alpha's hands.
In fact, not only Dean, but also Xiao Lan was half a beat slower when Alpha took action.
By the time it reacted, the map was already in Alpha's hands.
This reaction speed can be said to be the fastest Dean has ever seen.
Even among assassins, it is at a very astonishing level.
To be able to possess such strength at the age of fifteen or sixteen, Alpha's talent must be quite high.
The alertness of one person and two pets was instantly raised a lot.
Kana even stretched out a foot and stepped on Alpha's shadow.
If it hadn't been worried about the unknown Su next door, it might have already taken action against this familiar boy.
Feeling Kana's tension, Dean glanced at the closed door to the side and sighed inwardly.
In fact, it's not just Kana who is restrained. If Alpha's father, whose unfathomable strength is not nearby, wouldn't he be able to work hard here?
If you just knock someone unconscious with a stick, do you still need to continue grinding?
Thinking about it, Dean squinted at Alpha, who was looking down at the map, feeling vaguely itchy.
The originally peaceful atmosphere gradually became slightly tense, but Alpha didn't notice it at all. He only looked at the map and made a shocked sound.
"Your map is quite interesting, it's much better than mine!"
As he spoke, he took out the map he had prepared earlier from his pocket, opened it and showed it to Dean. The various rough marks on it, as well as special symbols that looked like secret languages, made Dean dizzy.
It was in stark contrast to Lucy's carefully crafted map.
According to Dean, it is almost the difference between college entrance examination paper and daily scratch paper.
Written by a man, crawled by a dog.
Apparently, Alpha himself thought so too.
He didn't regard himself as an outsider at all. After judging the merits of the two maps, he directly balled up the paper into a ball and crushed it into a pile of scraps. Then he blew into his hand, and the fine scraps of paper instantly turned into fly ash. , dissipated in mid-air.
After finishing dealing with the inferior works, Alpha clapped his hands, raised the map he snatched from Dean and said: "Let's go, just follow your lead, I think it will be a very interesting journey..."
Dean expressed shock at the man's familiarity.
He looked Alpha up and down, and said half-seriously: "We met by chance, and you trust me so much? Aren't you afraid that I'll abduct you on the way?"
Alpha touched his chin, as if trying to figure out how to say it without hurting anyone, and finally said conservatively: "I'm quite valuable, but it's a pity that it's hard to sell."
"With your small body, if I count ten, I can kill you seven times."
"It's not certain who kidnapped whom."
Dean glanced at Alpha, noncommittal.
If calculated purely based on reaction speed, it may be true. He and Xiaolan combined are no match for Alpha.
But if the combat effectiveness is simply calculated based on reaction speed, it would be too underestimated.
The Dean of today is different from the Dean of yesterday.
After two consecutive attacks, he was deeply aware of the dangers of the outside world, and directly asked Xiao Lan to release the [Guardian of the Stars], superimposing it to the extreme it could achieve.
In the past, because Xiaolan's control of this skill was not flexible enough, and in addition, it was in a breeding house, the environment was relatively safe, and the magic pets were often fighting, which could easily trigger it, so Dean let it disperse. situation.
Now that we have come to District 3, which has "tight security", we can't be as casual as before.
Especially yesterday's welcome gift of an awl and a broom left a deep impression on Dean. After repairing the wall, he immediately asked Xiao Lan to re-establish his defense.
It also gave him some confidence to stand beside Alpha.
Taking one last look at the door next door, Dean took Kana and left the hotel with Alpha.
The two of them were walking in the streets according to the markings on the map. They looked like they had known each other for a long time. It was hard to imagine that they had just met not long ago.
However, the conversation between the two revealed the true relationship that they were not familiar with yet.
"With your strength, among students of the same age, no one should be your opponent, right?"
"Roughly the same……"
Following Alpha, Dean continued to inquire about his detailed information, his intentions barely concealed.
And Alpha didn't care either. He almost answered all questions, with a big heart, and didn't seem to be worried about Dean's purpose of inquiring about this.
Very confident.
Looking back, Dean silently made a judgment in his mind.
But Alpha probably didn't lie.
His strength is probably second to none in the Assassin Academy.
This is not just a matter of talent, but also the result of being supported by abundant resources, especially teaching resources.
The average family obviously cannot afford this.
Thinking about the situation of the lady next door, Dean could easily come to the conclusion that she came from an assassin family.
Clues emerged in his mind one by one, and Dean's thoughts gradually connected. He talked to Alpha with a calm expression, and evaluated him in his mind.
His requirements for corners are not low. Not all corners are worthy of Dean's digging, but fortunately, the one in front of him is the kind of corner worthy of his digging.
Especially during the conversation, some of Alpha's casual remarks deepened Dean's confidence in poaching.
"I actually don't really like the assassin profession, but I just enjoy being 'powerful'."
"Only the strong are qualified to dominate everything, and the weak are only qualified to obey."
"I didn't want to be submissive forever, so I tried to get a voice."
"And assassins are a way for me to achieve my goals."
Dean's heart moved, and he had a premonition that poaching someone would be possible. He persuaded him: "There is more than one way to become stronger. Maybe you are more suitable for other professions?"
Alpha disagreed, "For me, there is no better channel than an assassin."
"Even if there is, it's not suitable for me."
Dean stopped speaking, but said silently in his heart.
This is... maybe.
