"I know where she is!"
The sound of wind intertwined with the banging of armor, and from time to time there were shouts and curses from the people around. Although there were no casualties, all the guards were still somewhat angry after being played by three people for so long. The players among the city guards felt a little different. After a period of fighting, they also woke up from their initial self-confidence and deeply realized the powerful strength of the three people in front of them.
In the free world, strong people are respected.
Despite the pursuit of reality, the free world is ultimately a world of swords and magic. According to the previous speculations of some well-known players, it is not impossible to reach a strong level that can kill everyone in this game, because from the current investigation Judging from the information obtained, there are countless ancient ruins and other natural wonders that may exist in the free world. Even if these places will eventually be controlled by powerful NPC forces, even if players can get a little bit of them, maybe they will You can reach the sky in one step with this. And this is why many players and guilds are still inquiring about the whereabouts of the specific participants of the Emerald Forest - they firmly believe that those people really got some powerful equipment or skills, otherwise they would have failed to live up to such a spectacular spectacle. Yet?
However, the Red Soul players never dreamed that two of the parties involved were right in front of them.
Out of the anxiety of the long-failed pursuit and interception, as well as the mental state of raising caution to the limit, the remaining Red Soul players subconsciously increased their vigilance when they heard Duan Qing's shout, for fear that the other party would take out another weapon. Something strange came out and gave everyone a surprise. Although they were ordered to participate in this big chase that circled half of Fenghua Town, apart from the frustration of never catching the other party, I still have some respect in my heart.
They are just ordinary players, so they do not have the same self-esteem and self-confidence as those who claim to be masters. After meeting or playing against masters in a confrontation, in addition to the annoyance of failure, they are more like "this guy is so awesome." , "I can't do it" and so on, and then either take a detour and stay away, or work hard to become as powerful in the future. As for those petty players who are jealous and can't stand the master's style, there are not many of them now. After all, the virtual reality game industry has developed for so many years, and the living space of players who really enjoy finding faults or are good at swearing has been compressed. There is only one and a half points left. Even if most players have such negative emotions in their hearts, they rarely show them in public. Instead of using a sour tone to ridicule a few words and take advantage of them, not only the other party will If you respond with an indifferent smile, your companions around you won't think it's an appropriate thing to do - it would be better to just fight back.
However, for Aqiang, who has just entered the gaming world and has been a leader all year round, he will not have such a mentality.
After the initial anger and subsequent anxiety, Codename Aqiang was still quite happy with Shou Qing's response at this time, because it represented the other party's final surrender. No matter what the two parties have done before, what kind of grievances they have had, as long as he gets the result of victory in the end, all the processes in between will not be so important to him. After all, the concept of winner takes all, in He had encountered it frequently in his upper-class life for more than 20 years. As for the current situation, even a fool can see that whoever can control the little girl may be the winner.
Although he didn't know what role that little girl played.
"where is she?"
"I said, can you let us go?"
The smiling uncle who was sitting on the ground raised his head and glanced at Duan Qing's face. He seemed a little surprised that this young man could ask such a question under such circumstances. As for the little girl Mengzhu, it was completely different. With this mentality, without waiting for the other party to respond, she hurriedly climbed up and whispered in Duan Qing's ear: "Hey, uncle, do you really want to hand Nina over? No, do you know where Nina is... ..”
"Shh..." Duan Qing's silent hint responded to her.
However, the expected response did not come immediately. For Aqiang, this is the time when he is riding a tiger but cannot get off - he does want to know the whereabouts of the little girl, but that is his own purpose, regardless of the relationship he had with the adult when he cooperated with Wings of Freedom. Negotiation, or help later in the city-wide siege, this selfish intention was not exposed. Now that he was asked to discuss this matter in front of so many people, how could he possibly open his mouth? And more importantly, he didn't have the final say here after all - the city guards who surrounded the three floors would not change their actions because of their own orders.
They are still going to arrest someone after all, and judging from previous reports from their subordinates, they probably... also want the little girl.
"I can spare you." Just when the codename Aqiang was a little confused about what to do, a person who could make the decision finally appeared on the scene. The man squeezed out from the surrounding guards and walked up to Duan Qing and the others with a big belly: "As long as you can explain everything clearly and... the whereabouts of the descendants of Yaski."
Leader of Fenghua Town Guards, Captain Patch.
"It turns out to be you, my lord." Duan Qing did not make any excessive remarks because of the other party's identity, but just saluted casually: "Please believe that we do not have any malicious intentions, it is just out of self-protection and... ...Eagerly concerned, that’s why I ran all the way here.”
"Well...seeing that you didn't cause any harm, I can trust you." Patch held his belly, as if he had become a peacemaker at this moment: "Although I have come all the way here It caused a lot of property damage, but...as long as you can help us, these can be waived."
It seems that these are all caused by yourselves... Looking at the somewhat damaged Adventurer Association building not far away, Duan Qing twitched the corners of his mouth, but he still didn't laugh in the end.
"Okay, you...you can talk." Signing to his guards, Patch took two steps forward in the encirclement that expanded a little: "That little girl... ..where?"
For some reason, his voice became very low.
"Oh, I'm not sure either." Giving a slight hint to the two people behind him, Duan Qing blinked helplessly: "According to the information I learned, Richard hid her before. You should I also looked for it in the Adventurers Association..."
"Yes, yes..."
"So according to my speculation, she should be hidden in that place..."
Following Duan Qing's finger, Patch turned around. Opposite the Fenghua Town Adventurer Association, there was the Mage Council of Fenghua Town.
"Stop lying! Do you think we don't have anyone in the Mages Council..."
Patch shouted angrily, but before he turned around and finished speaking, he suddenly realized that the three people in front of him... were missing.
To be precise, there was only one person left.
The people around him saw clearly what had just happened - the moment his boss turned around, the man who had been smiling and talking to his captain suddenly retreated and grabbed the man who was following him. The bodies of the other two people, and then... threw them out.
The direction of the throw was in the air, and... it flew very far.
In full view of everyone, the two living people drew a beautiful arc in the air, crossed the thick human wall, and fell towards the back of the broken building of the Adventurers Association. Patch reacted His mouth opened wide, as if he couldn't believe the scene in front of him. He stared blankly at Duan Qing, who was still standing there. He didn't wake up until the other party made a helpless expression.
"You... you..." He stretched out a finger tremblingly: "Adventurers are born to be cunning villains! Liars! This was the case in the Yaski family before, and it is still the case now! "
He looked at Duan Qing with a meaningless expression and the big shield lying next to Duan Qing, and then made the most wrong decision in his life.
"Get him!" he shouted.
The guards surged up like a tidal wave.
Due to his previous haste and his estimation of the weight, Duan Qing deliberately made the smiling butcher drop his shield when he threw it at the two people. Before, he was a little afraid that his estimation was wrong, but when he saw that the shield was still lying on the At his feet, there was no large shield that disappeared with the departure of his master, and he felt at peace in his heart. But this is not his ultimate goal - he doesn't just want to send his teammates out, and then sacrifice himself here as a national hero.
He still wanted to escape.
"Whenever I pick up a shield, I always feel safe in my heart..." Facing the increasingly smaller encirclement and the captain of the city guard who was as angry as a bull, Duan Qing took his time. He picked up the black iron shield on the ground, and then... held it in his right hand.
"But if it's just that... I guess you won't be willing to accept it."
He whispered to himself in a low voice, not sure if he was talking to the shield or to himself. The next moment, his face suddenly became tense, his face turned red, his eyes were wide open, the corners of his mouth were pulled down, and veins popped up from his forehead, as if a god with swollen beards and hair was attached to his body.
But he didn't mean to yell. He just held the shield in his right hand, squatted down, and then slapped the shield on the ground.
The entire Huawu Street shook.
******************
"That bad uncle... didn't even say anything in advance!"
"Get up quickly, we can't let down Brother Qingshan's kindness, we have to run quickly..."
"Wait...wait a minute, where is this...let me identify the direction first..."
On the other side, Mengzhu and the smiling butcher, who were thrown out of the crowd, got up after a brief dizziness. They identified it a bit and found that this place seemed to be behind the bungalow behind the Adventurers Association.
If Duan Qing had pressed harder, they might have been thrown down the mountain.
"How are you, are you injured..."
"I'm fine, uncle, what about you? Where's your shield?"
"Leave it there, let's talk about it later, let's run quickly..."
"But where should we run? We don't know either..."
There was an ear-splitting sound.
After a moment of fright, the two of them looked at the source of the loud noise in shock. In that direction, in front of the Adventurers Association, a huge firework exploded. It's just that it's different from ordinary fireworks. The petals of that firework are composed of countless earth, rocks, debris, grass blades, debris, and flying human bodies. Screams filled the sky as the huge fireworks flew up, and then there were footsteps accompanied by the roars of more people, approaching quickly.
Then, the two of them saw Duan Qing's figure in the dark crowd rushing over.
With what later generations called "the most beautiful flower in Fenghua Town" as the background, Duan Qing lowered his right arm and ran towards this side dragging a black iron shield. Amid the common voices of the guards and players, he stumbled. He staggered to the side of the two of them and threw the iron shield in his hand at the smiling butcher: "What are you doing standing there in a daze? Run quickly!"
"Huh? Oh!"
"Why did this shield become like this..."
"Sorry, I used too much force."
"Your arms..."
"...It's just a dislocation, this way!"
The three people gathered together again and ran wildly in the narrow environment and chaotic scene. When the smiling butcher gritted his teeth and used his tired body and dented and deformed iron shield to block the enemy in front of the crossing, Duan Qing finally completed a brief reconnaissance activity among several nearby huts.
"it's here!"
The smiling butcher retreated suddenly, and then followed the trace of the purple burqa left behind at a certain corner. The next moment, he and the little girl in front suddenly stopped.
This is a small room made of wood, one of the row of small bungalows located parallel to the Adventurers Association, not far from there. Perhaps because no one has lived in it for a long time, this small house is very dilapidated. All kinds of broken bricks and tiles are randomly placed on top of various dusty old furniture. I don’t know if it is because of the previous strong energy. The shock was due to the sudden intrusion of several people. The wooden shelf in the corner suddenly fell apart. The various cups and bowls on it were scattered on the floor, and the dust on it was also thrown into the air.
However, the three people's eyes were focused on the place behind the wooden shelf - the thin, haggard and panic-stricken little girl was holding her doll and hiding in the corner of the room. Looking at them with fearful eyes.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment, but the next second, Duan Qing's voice woke Mengzhu out of his sluggish state.
"Mengzhu! Come here!"
"Ah...oh!"
Dragging his arms that could not stand upright, Duan Qing walked quickly to the door where the three people came in. He glanced briefly, and then quickly made arrangements: "Listen to my instructions later, and I will rush as soon as I say. .....Prepare!"
He held his breath and concentrated, and his whole body emitted the creaking sound of muscles twisting, as well as the accompanying evil aura. Then he suddenly paused and pulled out the dagger at his waist.
A bright light flashed in the dark room. Amidst the screams, the three people rushed out from the door of the room. Then, with the sound of creaking wood breaking, they ran along the entire fallen dilapidated wall. On top of the roof of the hut on the other side.
In the field of vision, more pursuers began to approach. Duan Qing, who was holding a sword in one hand, knocked away an enemy who climbed up. He looked around while running, and then looked up at the sky in the direction of the setting sun. .
"Let's go to the top of the mountain." Facing the anxious eyes of Mengzhu holding the girl, he subconsciously set the end point of his escape.
"In Fenghua Town...maybe that's the only place that can save us."
