"My Lady Queen, you..."
"I know what you're worried about."
The swaying light swept across the surface of the bar, covering up the slightly dirty traces. The woman who watched a certain man leave did not show any disgust, and lay on the bar with her arms folded. " Or……"
"I know what you're all worried about."
"...Won't that adult be angry?"
"Which lord are you referring to?"
Kasha smiled seductively, but it was gradually covered up by the sound of music and noise around her. "If you are referring to the person on the ground, we don't have much interaction with them. As long as we don't It touches their interests... and they can't say anything about what we do. If you mean the one who lives next to us..."
The woman twirled the wine glass in front of her, then raised her head suddenly and drank it in one breath. "Do you really think that I can't see anything?"
"...The Queen is indeed extremely wise, everything..."
"Come on, when I decided to take them in, you all accused me behind my back." The woman chuckled and shook her head, then lowered her scattered head. "Ignorant boys, you are probably here. You have stayed in this place for too long and have lost the most basic sense of awe, or... the wealth and scenery we have gained in the past few years have blinded your eyes?"
"No, there is no such thing, sir..."
"No?"
The woman's eyes suddenly became sharp. "Why was the provocation in the first place?"
"..."
"Just because the other party is a person? An ordinary adventurer?"
"..."
"When that bastard named Teddy knocked on the door, you were all so frightened that you couldn't move. How come... I didn't see you have such courage at that time?"
Plop.
There was a heavy sound of landing behind the bar, but it was the man with the iron tower who was still half exposed, kneeling unsteadily on the invisible ground. "Sir, that's not the case. At that time..."
His explanation did not go on, because two red lights that looked like substance penetrated the woman's eyes and pierced his eyes. "I can tolerate your greed for life and fear of death, tolerate your deception, and even condone you to embezzle the blood and sweat of the sisters, but……"
"I can't tolerate you bullying the weak and fearing the strong." The woman said sternly, "You will lose your sense of right and wrong and the courage to face the enemy."
"We...we..."
The big man who didn't dare to look directly hesitated for a while, and finally lowered his dark head, "We... realized our mistake."
"...Although this is a world where the weak and the strong eat the strong, the toughness of the heart is often even more valuable."
The woman smoothed herself out, and then gradually calmed down the red light in her eyes, "Although what I just said was nice, after all, I am the only one here. If you don't make progress, I, a woman... can't give you anything." He will always keep the place going."
She moved her finger forward a little, and then let out the same chuckle as before, "That... must not be the fate you want to accept."
"Sir, my lord." Iron Tower stood up in a hurry, "Wherever your lord goes, we will go. Even if we die, we will not..."
"...You guys."
The woman who raised her hand again to interrupt the opponent's oath shook her head gently, and then put the back of her hand on her pointed chin. "You still have too little vision. The strong people in this world... are stronger than you think." A lot more.”
"Do you think that man can't beat Teddy?" She rolled her eyes, and then showed an inexplicable smile. "Do you really think he is just an ordinary adventurer?"
"Sir... do you know that person?"
"Of course I know." The woman turned sideways lazily and looked at the door of the nightclub. "Actually..."
"I have dealt with him several times."
At this time, Duan Qing naturally didn't know what the woman he had just discussed "business" with was talking about him behind his back. His heart was already filled with the name he just heard and the countermeasures he thought of next. But even so, this trance state did not last long for him. He avoided two unknown people who wanted to sneak up on him, and turned another corner. He had just figured out the direction and was about to continue going back. As he rushed there, a familiar figure stood in front of him like a long-awaited rock.
"Sir." Ningyu Ninglan, who was wearing a black cloak, blessed her body slightly. "It's time for you to go back and rest."
"Uh... um..." Duan Qing, with his eyes wide open, hesitated for a long time, and finally muttered in a low voice with a helpless sigh, "How did you find me..."
"A friend from Fars Fortress told us your whereabouts." Ninglan under the cloak showed a bright smile, "His name is Spartak."
"...I almost forgot." Duan Qing patted his forehead, "So how is he now?"
"The leader took them out." Dunyu Ninglan replied in a low voice, "But in the end, they came back. I heard that they have been arranged to the hotel..."
"Well, that's fine." Duan Qing shook his head, and after a while he muttered, "Where's Mengzhu? Are you still waiting for us at the association?"
"No, there seems to be no activities tonight." The maid shook her head lightly. "The leader hastily went offline after he came back. The message he left for us... is to allow us to move freely."
"That's it..." Duan Qing sighed, then waved his hand towards the other party and began to walk towards the far side of the passage. "Where are the others?"
"Miss Liu Shang didn't come back. She was probably still busy with her own affairs." Ningyu Ninglan, who was following behind, replied in a low voice, "Mr. Xiao Hongchen didn't show up either. I don't know where he went to investigate."
"The way he does tasks has always been very mysterious." Duan Qing commented unceremoniously, and then asked without looking back, "Where is the game? How was the game tonight?"
"It's almost over." Ciyu Ninglan replied, "If there is no error in the message Ninglan received...there were still no accidents in tonight's game, and the professional teams...didn't have any rollovers. "
"...Where is the Wings of Freedom team?"
"They have all advanced, sir." Ninglan whispered, "There are four teams left in total, and all of them have entered tomorrow's round."
"Hey, you did a good job." Duan Qing held the giant knife on his back and laughed inappropriately, "How can the two ends bloom so well..."
"It's the three heads, sir." Ciyu Ninglan responded with a smile, "The latest news about Fars Fortress...Bernard has ordered the reorganization of the army and plans to completely clear out the entire fortress."
"...Where are the principality's troops?"
"The new support force has arrived. I heard it is a mixed team composed of city guards and private soldiers." Ciyu Ninglan replied, "Many players also followed, although... they were not incorporated into the team. middle."
"How can such a miscellaneous army be able to withstand the Imperial people." Duan Qing said with a wry smile, "It is simply a miracle that the fortress can survive until this point."
"It's all the credit of the players." Encrypted Ninglan explained with a smile, "The players who rushed to the fortress in the past two days have almost robbed all the spectators in Tania City to watch the game, and there are many from other places. The people... they have been pushing against the last city wall for two days."
"It's a pity that the game won't end so quickly." Duan Qing shook his head and said, "And there is also an offline finals, which is simply terrible..."
"Almost all the main forces in Jianghu have rushed towards the fortress." After turning a corner again, Ciyu Ninglan continued to explain the current situation, "Half of the people from the Sword of Justice have also left. I heard... that's the case too. Just in case.”
"Just in case? This situation doesn't look like one that the principality can survive...forget it, I can't control them." Duan Qing lowered his head and compared the adventure notes in his hand, then stretched his hand to the right. Then he took the lead and turned to the right. "Since they think this is okay, then this is okay. I can't help them guard Tania by myself... By the way."
"How is the Rex I asked you to track down now?"
"There is no progress, sir." The secret language Ninglan shook her head, "Ninglan met him once today. He... was still the same as before, without any flaws. Ninglan asked him about what happened that night, and he I just said that I was drunk and couldn’t remember anything..."
"Cunning guy." So Duan Qing waved his fist, "Not only is he a gambler, he turns out to be a scoundrel..."
"According to the information currently available, he is also a guy who likes beautiful women, so he can be called a gangster." Ningyu Ninglan smiled and echoed, "Whenever he meets a beautiful woman, he will try to get close to her and then give her a gift. Enhance mutual feelings... Also, he seems to have many professions, so it is impossible to determine what his true calling is. Magician, performer, painter, florist, singer, accordion player, bard... "
"Okay, okay, okay." Duan Qing waved his hand backwards hurriedly. "After all, he is an all-round homeless man, right? It's a miracle that he hasn't attracted a woman for so long..."
"No, there are many women chasing him." The maid smiled slightly, "So... he has many different images now, and this should be one of the reasons why he likes to disguise himself... Is this here, sir?"
"Well, how did you know I was looking for this place...forget it."
Stopping in front of a certain passage, Duan Qing compared the adventure map in his hand again and again, then shook his head slightly, "It's really blocked..."
"What's the matter, sir?"
"There are some people hiding in this passage." Duan Qing explained in a low voice. "When we visited the spot before, there were two refugees guarding the gate. They said that the back of this road was blocked by them. I didn't expect what they said was true. of……"
"Shu Ninglan can speak frankly." The maid snickered and said, "Such a thing... has absolutely no proving value."
"Uh... I just want to go in from behind." Duan Qing scratched his head slightly awkwardly, "I don't have to argue with those two people..."
"Sir, why don't you go to the nearby area and inquire about it?" Encrypted Ninglan suggested, raising her finger, "The underground forces here must know their identities."
"You think I didn't ask?" Duan Qing glared, and then lowered his voice again, "You would never think... which name I heard."
"..."
"Oh, it seems like you didn't know that in the first place." Duan Qing's mysterious face fell again. "You and Miss Lou came here later..."
"Is it the old enemy of the Fool's Adventure Group?" Dark Language Ninglan asked doubtfully, "That guild called Red Soul?"
"No, not them."
Duan Qing shook his head, but a sneer appeared on his face.
"It's someone who tricked us once."
A moment later, in the already empty city guard command room in north-central Tania, a snowy page was added to the mountain of reports. On the night of January 12, the underground sewer section in the eastern part of Tania City , suddenly there was a violent vibration suspected of an explosion.
unknown reason.
"Hey, our game should be over, right?"
"...What, are you in a hurry?"
"No, but...should we just stay here and not leave?"
"Then what can we do? The president and the big guys haven't finished their meetings one by one. You dare to dissolve it on your own?"
"Those people before that..."
"They are the advance troops. They go to the battlefield to warm up their hands first... Do you still want to join the death squads?"
"What a suicide squad? I can see it. They are just queuing up to receive rewards! With the empire's tanks and snow wolf troops here, how can there be no reason to win? The brothers who worked hard on the front line before will not be able to win in the end. Do you win lots of prizes?”
"...But there is always an exception."
"Are you talking about Liao Zhishan? He was seeking death for a few dollars, but by chance he was caught by the general manager..."
"Shh! They're coming."
The sounds of several human figures being teleported appeared one after another around the outfield of the competition, and the originally whispered words were slowly suppressed. After a few breaths, all senior members, including Free Flying, took their own steps. , all appeared in everyone's sight. The leading man held his sword, cleared his throat slightly, and then said loudly under everyone's gaze, "Today's game... everyone played well." , if we keep this momentum going, in a few days... the UEFA Cup final will become our home court!"
"good"
Amid the excitement of the crowd, Freefly pressed his hands, and then changed his voice, "But... our goals are not just these."
"After tonight, we will become the new pioneers of the empire, the destroyers of Fars, the vanguard of the unified continent, and the founders of the new era! Let's see who has bullied us in the past..."
He raised his hands and said, "You are the winner in the free world!"
The shouts that erupted again startled the players passing by, and also made Xue Ling Huan Bing involuntarily close her eyes. The next moment, with the command of Free Flying, all the players of Wings of Freedom left the place one after another, and then after a server change, they came to the west gate of Fals Fortress. Around the still damaged iron gate, countless invisible black shadows were pouring into the fortress through the night, and then, amid the increasingly louder shouts of killing, they threw themselves into the battle line formed by the eastern firelight. .
"Sister Xue, are you okay?"
"……fine."
After signaling to the teammates around him, Xue Ling Huan Bing put down the arm that was holding his forehead, then raised his head, looking at the fortress building still standing in front surrounded by black smoke mixed with firelight, and sighed inaudibly. After taking a breath, "Is this the place he described..."
She recalled blankly for a while, then pulled out her long sword, and rushed into the smoke-filled fortress with the surging crowds and the night wind mixed with the smell of blood.
