Looking at the smiling face in front of him that had been distorted by the darkness, Zhang Yang clenched the red crutch in his hand and couldn't help but recall the scenes in his memory.
"My name is Zhang Yang, Zhang from Gong Chang, Yang from Dayang. Nice to meet you, classmate Ren Li."
At that time, Ren Li was only twenty years old. Zhang Yang was slightly older than Ren Li at twenty-one years old and had not been injured. He was also one of the leaders of the Yinwu Student Union.
Back then, he had already experienced the peak of his strength.
At first, the two of them were not familiar with each other, but after they had been together for a few years, experienced life and death, and completed several dangerous missions, they naturally became familiar with each other.
"Hey, Ren Li, it's all your fault. Why did you rush into the enemy's lair just now? As a result, we are being hunted down now. You, the one who made the plan, must be responsible!"
During a mission, Ren urged Zhang Yang to use a dangerous move and led the team members directly into the lair of the Thousand-Year Demon Spider, and wiped out this monster that often harassed the academy.
It was also since the beginning of this mission that Zhang Yang and Ren Li gradually became familiar with each other. Otherwise, before this, they could only be regarded as ordinary seniors and had no special friendship.
At that time, Hayama, Hatsune Miku and others had not yet risen. The leaders of Yin Sheng Academy were still Luo Ming and Yayin Gongyu. Yayin Gongyu had already disappeared behind the scenes. It was said that he was seeking new power and would appear normally. In front of everyone, Luo Ming is the master.
"Oh, I hate that man. He always speaks from a high position. It looks like the lord is inspecting his own citizens. It's really annoying!"
Exactly...when did it start?
Ren Li has a very serious hatred of the rich, and Zhang Yang is very clear about this.
Rather, in that period, Zhang Yang was the only one who survived and knew what kind of person Ren Li was.
In Zhang Yang's eyes, Ren Li is a person who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. As long as the final result is good, Ren Li can sacrifice anything.
Just like in a certain mission, Ren Li ruthlessly left the remaining companions behind and lied to them that they would come back later. In fact, he went in the opposite direction of the pursuers and left with Zhang Yang...
"Why did you leave Xiao Li and the others in that place!" At that time, Zhang Yang was very angry. After all, in his opinion, although the gap between the enemy and us was huge, if we fight to the death, we might not be unable to wait for reinforcements to arrive.
"I don't like to pin my life and death on others. If it's you, you should be able to understand me, right? Brother Zhang." This was Ren Li's answer.
That mission was a complete success. At the cost of their partners' lives, Ren Li and Zhang Yang sneaked into the enemy's base camp, obtained the enemy's grain transportation route map, and secretly blew up the opponent's grain trucks, laying the foundation for Victory of the entire small-scale battle.
However, the dead partner will never live again...
Maybe it has something to do with the power of two people in charge of different systems? At that time, Zhang Yang was in charge of the way of life, and the rich vitality turned into a green cane; while Ren Li was in charge of the way of the undead, with strong death energy. It was condensed into the Undead Staff, forming an extremely sharp contrast.
The blood-light staff Zhang Yang and the necromancer Ren Li were called so by the outside world at that time. It symbolized a kind of recognition, and it was also the red and black of Yinwu. They were the best experienced geniuses in that class.
One life, one death, one survival. At that time, because they held opposite powers, they were best friends who often hung out together and were often discussed. In addition, both of them were peerless geniuses in the academy, equivalent to candidates for the master.
They often go on missions together, so the relationship is naturally quite good.
However, what everyone doesn't know is that the reason why Zhang Yang insists on going on a mission with Ren Li is because he is afraid that if he doesn't follow, no one in Ren Li's team may survive...
Just as Zhang Yang was thinking about the past, the next moment, a huge palm came over him. Zhang Yang wanted to retreat, but he was entangled by the undead arm stretched out from his feet.
"Old Zhang, what are you doing? Don't be in a daze during the battle!"
Wei Cheng roared violently, and a huge black fireball appeared in his hand, blasting open the undead's arm.
At the same time, in his mind, the shadow of the Black Fire Altar suddenly appeared, took shape, and fell hard in the direction of Ren Li!
boom!
A muffled sound was heard, and Ren Li was temporarily blocked by the projection of the altar. The chains were tied around him, making it impossible for him to break free in a short time.
Ren Li felt a little stinging and frowned slightly, while Wei Cheng activated the small Tianluo Earth Lock, taking the opportunity to trap Ren Li in place, and quickly rushed out with Zhang Yang.
Looking at Lao Zhang's hair that had turned gray, Wei Cheng roared: "What are you hesitating about? Teacher!"
teacher!
This sound once again reminded Zhang Yang of something.
"You want to be a teacher?"
In the memory, Ren Li wiped the blood-stained undead staff. Next to him, Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief and lay reclined. The life force emitted by the staff was barely holding on, so he did not die on the spot.
If you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet?
Therefore, during a difficult mission, Zhang Yang was severely wounded by a strong man with a high level of Grandmaster on the opposite side in order to fight against the enemy. If Ren Li hadn't pulled him to escape, his life would have been over.
"Haha, that's right. Anyway, after being so seriously injured, there is probably little hope of breaking through to the Grandmaster realm. Rather than being a mercenary who only goes through difficult realms, I might as well stay in the academy and become a teacher."
After saying that, Zhang Yang smiled again: "It really surprises me. I thought you would abandon me and run away alone... Isn't this your usual style?"
That time, it can be said that Zhang Yang saved Ren Li, and it can also be said that Ren Li dragged Zhang Yang back from the gate of hell.
"That's because I judge that you can still be saved. Instead of putting you over there, it would be a more advantageous choice to carry you back. That's all." Ren Li said lightly: "Since you want to be a teacher...then I
Also try to stay in Yinwu! Let’s see what direction this academy that trains us will take..."
So, after graduation, the two parted ways. Although they both still stayed in the college, Zhang Yang was unable to have any luck in his life due to serious physical injuries, so he could only stay at the college headquarters and take over the position of a certain old teacher.
And Ren Li was indeed a genius. In that year, he broke through to the Qi Source Difficulty, the so-called Grandmaster realm, and officially became a legend in the eyes of many students.
In that year, the demon world invaded the human world. The mission of the two of them was to serve as an advance team to detect the enemy's general movements.
And when they returned to the academy, they learned that Yayin Gongyu had been kidnapped. Luo Ming was furious and led a group of powerful experts from the academy into the Demon Realm and disappeared...
Then came the rise of Hayama, Hatsune Miku and others. In those years, Gumi quickly became a powerful person in the realm of great power, and accepted Renli as his apprentice.
It was also during that period that Zhang Yang witnessed Ye Shan leading the warriors from all over China to pacify the battlefield and obtain the title of Ring Master, officially declaring the end of the War of All Realms.
"Singer... Ha! Ha ha!"
However, it was also after that that Ren Li gradually changed dramatically, and that change also planted the seeds of future betrayers...
