'Old Mountain Hotel——'
When Fang Plover left the house, he let out a long breath. He looked back at the wooden sign hanging on the copper pole above his head. The words on it were very simple. The snow was falling heavily, and a thin layer of snow accumulated on the copper pole and the sign.
No one else spoke. Parker looked a little absent-minded and was kicking away the snow on the roadside. But the box was still the same as before, with the windbreaker pulled on, only two eyes exposed, and he put it in his purse with his hands folded, saying nothing.
Tianlan angrily walked out of the gate, and Jita reached out to pull her, but this little princess from the Twelve-Colored Irises rarely shook off her little friend's hand.
"Fuli, don't be like this," Jita looked a little worried and said in a thin voice: "... Luo Yu didn't mean it, isn't that the opinion of uncle and aunt... Besides, isn't he still here? "
"If he meant it, that would be fine." Tian Lan's anger was still lingering and she turned around, her white face flushed with anger, "He should go and be with those coquettish bitches, anyway. We don’t have much of a future! I think everyone should disperse. Anyway, I plan to be with the Nanami Brigade!"
As she spoke, she glanced angrily into the hotel. Luo Yu walked alone at the back of everyone, lowering his head and saying nothing. He raised his head and looked at Tianlan, and soon sighed and lowered his head.
"Fuli." Ai Ti couldn't help but speak. What nonsense was this little girl talking about?
Tianlan didn't dare to talk back to Miss Elf, so she could only look away angrily.
However, Fang Yu seemed very calm. He turned around and said, "Luo Yu, walk faster, everyone is waiting for you."
"Who's waiting for him?" Tian Lan couldn't help but mutter: "He goes wherever he likes, traitor!"
"Shut up, Tianlan." Alyssa couldn't help but speak.
Seeing that Miss Nightingale was not easy to mess with, Tian Lan could only snort softly.
"Captain..." Luo Yu held his magic wand - it was still the one given to him by Fang Lu, and it had been modified several times since then. He was holding the metal rod of the magic wand in his hand, his knuckles slightly turning white, and he was unable to move forward while standing there.
Fang Yu walked up to Luo Yu and patted him on the shoulder. They had been teammates for more than a year, so there were some things that didn't need to be said.
The place where they met Luo Yu's parents was not in Gula Port, but in a small village called 'Galayit' to the north of Gula Port. Fang Yu thought this was just an ordinary meeting - as Luo Yu's parents, it was completely reasonable for him to want to meet his son's new teammates.
After all, Luo Yu's parents, as the previous generation's selectors, naturally have no better vision than ordinary people, and they will definitely have certain requirements for their son and the team he belongs to.
However, Fang Plover is not too worried. In his mind, the Seven Seas Brigade is definitely a potential stock. This is not just blind confidence. After all, potential newcomers like Luo Yu, Jita, Alisa and Xiangxi rarely gather in the same team at the same time——
Unless it is the youth training team of a large guild, such as a team like Sophie's men.
But being able to compare with the Grand Guild is already an affirmation of the Seven Seas Brigade.
As for Parker and Tianlan, they each have their own abilities. Although they are not top-notch, they are still excellent among ordinary teams. Logistics talents can also be considered talents, especially those like Tianlan who are good at calculating and calculating, and often hold important positions in ordinary teams.
As for Luo Hao, who joined later, he was also an outstanding talent recommended by the military. In Fang Yu's view, the other party's performance was at least on the same level as Jita and Luo Yu's, especially in intelligence analysis.
The core members of a large adventure group are actually only a dozen or so, and currently the Seven Seas Brigade has raised half of it, plus himself, an excellent foundation has been laid.
At present, the Seven Seas Brigade is not comparable to those veteran adventure groups that have been around for many years, and it is not ranked among the names that people are familiar with - such as Loofah's "World Sword", FOX's "Grey Brigade", or Twilight of the Gods. 's 'Dragon Cry'.
It's not even comparable to some of the second-tier teams active in the first world - such as the 'Silver Shadow' he once encountered.
But the problem is not that everyone in the Seven Seas Troupe is still a newcomer. Most of them have only been in this world for a year.
Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the meeting, Luo Yu's parents poured cold water on them straight to the point.
Luo Yu's parents don't look very old. His father looks like he is in his early forties. He wears a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. He looks elegant and elegant. He doesn't feel like a chosen one to Fang Yu - but rather Like having the same profession as his uncle: writer.
But thinking about it carefully, it seemed that his uncle was also a former Chosen One. It was not uncommon for Chosen Ones to return to Earth and write biographies, but there were probably not many best-selling authors like her uncle.
However, it was Luo Yu's mother who spoke first. She was a very beautiful woman. Fang Yu estimated that this lady should be at least in her thirties or close to forty years old, but the years did not seem to have left any traces on her body. Same.
She was wearing a ranger's cloak, with pointed ears, and looked somewhat capable. This was probably her past occupation. Fang Yu was almost certain that Luo Yu had inherited his mother's excellent genes. Their facial features were very similar, but they showed a quiet and handsome look.
After introducing herself to them, the lady said straight to the point: "I heard about the contract between the Tapolis Oak Knights and you. They loaned Luo Yu and Jita to you. We actually knew about that at the time. Yes, there was no objection.”
"My husband and I entrusted my son to the Oak Knights because we had a relationship with them in the past. We still have some feelings for the Knights and have made many contributions. They promised to give Luo Yu the best treatment. , this commitment does not end just because they transfer Luo Yu to you."
"It was for that reason that we acquiesced to that deal."
Fang Yu opened his mouth at that time.
But the lady stopped him: "Is Ed right?"
"Yes, Auntie."
"Ed, I've heard some things about you." Luo Yu's mother slowed down a bit, "We were once chosen ones, and we can understand your pursuits. Free chosen ones, this is also Tapolis's. One of the spirits. So when Luo Yu proposed to take risks with you, his father and I both chose to acquiesce."
But she changed the topic next, "But please also understand my expectations for Luo Yu as a mother. We hope that one day, he can go to the second world, at least go further than us, instead of in the third world." It's a waste of time. You should understand what super competition is. Although there are thousands of people coming into this world, in the end, only a few people are truly remembered."
Fang Plover was slightly startled.
Luo Yu's mother continued: "Now that the Oak Knights of Tapolis is gone, the contract between you and the Knights is actually invalid. Since the Knights have been disbanded, this can also be regarded as a It’s a force majeure. So I think it’s necessary for us to re-examine our original decision.”
Tianlan was sitting at the side of the table. Only then did she understand the meaning of these words. She turned back and looked at the people around her in disbelief.
Luo Yu frowned: "Mom, I..."
"you shut up."
Luo Yu's mother interrupted him directly: "This is a matter between us and your team. We believe in your team leader, and you should also believe in him. On such an occasion, it is not your turn to speak."
Luo Yu suffocated and sat back down again holding the magic wand.
Fang Yu couldn't help but be speechless. He had never seen such a mother-son relationship. Although Ms. Zhang Rou would 'sometimes' teach him a lesson, most of the time, the relationship between him and his uncle and aunt's family was equal - except for becoming a chosen one, everything else was equal. discuss.
Not only him, but also Tang Xin.
But by this time, he knew he had to speak:
"Auntie, about Luo Yu..."
"Captain Ed, without contract constraints, Luo Yu should be free. In theory, he can decide whether to stay or go." Luo Yu's mother said forcefully: "But I understand that teammates and teammates What kind of relationship do they have, so we want to meet you all? We have actually negotiated with another local guild, and they are willing to accept Luo Yu under the same conditions. Luo Yu has the opportunity to go there. Second world.”
She looked at Fang Yu, and then at everyone sitting there: "You and Luo Yu are both friends, so you should hope that he can go further, right?"
"It's so selfish of you to say that."
An indignant voice came from one side.
Fang Plover didn't need to look to know that it was sky blue. This little girl from France has always had a character that can't tolerate sand in her eyes, especially since the protagonist of this incident is Luo Yu. How could she endure this?
In fact, the fact that she could wait until now to speak was because she saw that the other person was Luo Yu's parents.
Jita sat aside honestly, even looking at Tian Lan with a little fear, she bit her lip, her face was as white as snow——
But the woman sitting opposite didn't even look at Tian Lan, and only focused her eyes on Fang Plover.
Fang Yu was silent for a moment, and then replied concisely:
"Auntie, even if Luo Yu stays in the Seven Seas Brigade, he can still go to the second world."
"I believe you have such strength," Luo Yu's mother replied: "Ed, it's not that we don't know anything about you. Every feat you did in Dolifen and Vanric, I and I Luo Yu's father naturally sees it. We were also the chosen ones, we are not blind people. When the Oak Knights were willing to rent Luo Yu and Jita to you, I believe that Yugudola and the others did not act blindly. generation."
"Then why?" Tian Lan couldn't help but asked dissatisfiedly.
"But the Knights are no longer there," Luo Yu's mother said: "Ed, the Chosen Ones are not just about romantic adventures. You have been in this world for a year, so you should have some experience of this. No one With the support of huge guilds and forces, a simple adventure group cannot go far. You had the support of the Oak Knights before, and even built your own aerospace ship, but what happens after that?"
Fang Yu did not expect that Luo Yu's parents actually thought that their sailboat was built with funding from the Oak Knights of Tapolis. But this is not surprising. How could a normal adventure group have such a capital flow?
Therefore, it is normal for anyone who does not know the inside story to have such thoughts.
He was a little surprised that Luo Yu didn't tell his parents about this, but there were too many secrets about the Seven Seas Traveler, so it seemed like there was nothing wrong with them not telling them.
"We have money!" Tian Lan was angry and jumped up from his position.
But Luo Yu's mother was not surprised at all, and only replied: "You may still have some funds now, but what about in the future?" She looked at Fang Pliong again: "And Captain Aide, you should know that this is not just It’s about money.”
She paused for a moment and then asked again: "Do you have a place to go to the second world?"
This question has been asked to everyone sitting here.
Even Tian Lan couldn't help but shut her mouth, and there was a silent silence in the table.
…
The cold wind from the north swept the sky full of snowflakes, which were still falling from the sky.
Fang Yu looked at Luo Yu, who was still not over the previous dispute, and couldn't help but sigh. The other party didn't seem to have much reaction to his comfort for a while.
But this is not unexpected. On one side are my parents, and on the other side are my teammates who have been with me day and night this year. Although he finally made the decision to stay, it was tantamount to a complete break with his parents. Anyone in such a situation would feel pain and dilemma.
"Look around," he replied: "Aren't my uncle and aunt completely opposed to it? As long as we get enough places, we can convince them. If you think about it carefully, they don't necessarily want you to leave the Seven Seas Brigade. They are also good for you, they just don’t understand us.”
"It's easy to say. It's simply impossible to get so many quotas in just one year. Brother Ed, don't lie to us. I was also born in Twelve Colors Iris, so I naturally understand how to go to the second world. How precious is the quota."
Tian Lan was really angry and couldn't help but speak again.
She has never suffered this kind of grievance since she came to Corin-Ithurian - in her opinion, the Seven Seas Brigade is the best in the world, and even if it is not now, it will be in the future. Someone looked down on this group, which made her even more angry than looking down on her.
But she still couldn't refute, after all, the other party was none other than Luo Yu's parents. And no matter how willful she is, she still understands that what the other party says actually makes sense.
She was just angry that Luo Yu had never told her about this in the past few months.
Even so angry that he gritted his teeth——
At this time, Sylvide also walked out of the hotel. With the help of Siesta, she put on her coat and pulled the collar, and then came to Fang Plover. She raised her head and looked at her lover. The noble lady touched him quietly with her hand, smiled with her eyes moving, and asked softly:
"Didn't I cause you any trouble just now, my captain?"
Fang Plover shook his head again.
It was their ship officer lady who proposed to Luo Yu's parents to get a ticket to the second world within a year. In fact, it was this sentence that gave the final word and saved the atmosphere that had been almost deadlocked at the table just now.
Because Luo Yu was determined not to leave the Seven Seas Brigade, and even showed an attitude of breaking with his parents, and Fang Yu certainly didn't want such a thing to happen just for this reason.
He knew Luo Yu very well, and even if the other party stayed because of this, this matter would definitely become a worry in his heart.
Luo Yu is definitely not like Tianlan who can run away from home for a year and a half without any care and lack of self-consciousness.
"That was the only choice at the time. Luo Yu's parents were willing to give us a year, which is enough to show their trust in us," Fang Pulver replied: "Although there are many difficulties, we are not without opportunities. "
But Tianlan didn't believe it.
"Anyway, I don't see where the opportunity is," she snorted slightly, still angry: "And I don't want to understand them, they are selfish."
"Tianlan, those are Luo Yu's parents. He is your teammate, not an enemy," Attila finally said again, "Even among us elves, the elders place expectations on the younger ones. A reasonable thing may not be done in the right way, but that’s why people need to communicate.”
Tianlan wanted to refute, but after looking at Luo Yu who was standing aside, she finally thought about it and still didn't speak.
"All in all, it's not the worst situation right now," Fang Plover breathed out, not expecting that the meeting would end up like this. However, he has always been an optimist, and this difficulty will not scare him.
He looked at Luo Yu and smiled: "Don't worry, there's actually nothing to think about. I promised almost exactly the same thing to another person who is very important to me a long time ago."
"I said that in the future I will definitely form the most famous adventure group in the world, at least one of them. What is the second world? We are not only going to the second world, maybe we will also find the gate to the third world. , I haven’t forgotten what I said back then.”
Fang Yu vowed: "These words are all true, Luo Yu, your parents will also understand us."
Luo Yu took a breath, closed his mouth tightly and raised his head to look at them, his eyes meeting everyone except Tian Lan. Even Miss Nightingale smiled and nodded to him.
Of course, only a certain little girl turned her head away, leaving him with a big back of his head. Luo Yu looked at his little girlfriend helplessly and sighed, but Fang Yu's words finally made him worry about it for months, and at this moment he felt like letting go of everything.
Although when he thinks of his parents' attitude, it still seems like a lingering cloud in his heart. His parents said they would give them a year, but he actually knew his mother very well. If they didn't get a place within a month or two, the other party would definitely put forward other conditions.
But at least now, he has temporarily solved this problem.
Tianlan couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Fang Pliant bragging and said, "Brother Ed, you have to have a certain temper when you brag. Also, please keep your voice down. I would be embarrassed if someone else heard it." died."
"Wait, this is not bragging," Fang Yu was stunned, "I'm serious."
"Are you saying that the Seven Seas Troupe will be more famous than FOX's Gray Tour in the future?"
Fang Piao didn't dare to say this.
Gray King FOX, is that an ordinary person?
"To, at least it must be the same."
"Tch, your true colors will be revealed soon."
However, bickering is bickering. To get all the places required by the Seven Seas Brigade within one year is really a fantasy under certain circumstances. Fang Yu actually had another idea in mind.
Take the Aboriginal route——
