In the end, no one knew the reason why Liangchen Meiyu was almost late, and Mengzhu didn't know what was strange about the money sent. The little girl just looked at the number silently for a while, and then continued She had accomplished a great job in occupying the machine, and only Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had returned, seemed to understand some of the inside story, so before leaving, she asked Duan Qing to give him a message.
"Next time during the competition, remember to ask her to come to me on site." She said.
She doesn't lack a big sister like you... Duan Qing thought.
There is indeed still some time before the next game, because the people in the alliance seem to have finally figured it out and plan to give everyone participating in the finals, including themselves, some room to rest and prepare. Although there are not many knockout rounds left, these benefits are inevitable for those who have advanced to professional players. They can organize equipment, handle housework, study opponents, and prepare ultimate moves... As long as they want to, they can do it Things will never end, but for ordinary people watching the game, apart from finding a place to kill their time, all they can do seems to be to go online to brag about what they have seen and heard in the past two days. At the same time, the first-hand news obtained on the scene was disseminated to all players in the free world.
While this generated revenue for the major Internet cafes in Cerulean City, it also temporarily increased the number of online users in the free world. As a result, a new round of conflict between the two countries began with the explosion of "a certain missing person reappeared." The news began happily.
"Principal people!"
"Imperial!"
"Who hit my brother just now?"
"It's them! Don't let them rush over!"
"Send them back! We must push the front back to Talon Avenue today!"
"Why are there so many people? Where are our reinforcements!"
"Someone touched our back! The reinforcements are already fighting with them!"
Due to the temporary truce between the two countries, the major guilds representing the forces of the two countries have also temporarily disappeared, and they have gone to prepare for their own wars. Therefore, most of the warring parties from various countries are skilled workers who were originally on the battlefield, as well as those who were idle. An idle player with nothing to do. The vast and beautiful Talon Plain has also become a temporary battlefield. There will be various large and small battles every moment, breaking out in sparsely populated corners - as long as they are not close to the temporary positions put together by the empire and the principality. , players' fights generally do not involve the intervention of NPCs, so the battle in the entire Talon Plain at this time is more like a large number of players participating at the same time, and then the duels between them are placed all over the plain. large arena.
Of course, as long as there is a battle, there will always be a winner and loser, and as long as it is a player... there will always be a distinction between high and low.
"Wow hahaha...who else?"
Another punch knocked away an opponent whose name he didn't even remember. Nan Tieshan, who was still covered in black armor, folded his arms and laughed. Then, under the waving flags and shouts of all the younger brothers, he waved towards the opposite camp. A muscular posture, showing off his majestic body arrogantly. So the booing and ridicule didn't last long. A man in a trench coat jumped out of his camp, and then while raising the internationally recognized hand gesture, he agreed to the next duel: "Who dares to fight against your grandfather?" Arrogant in front of you!"
"Ha! Someone really dares to call the formation?" Nan Tieshan shook his fist, and then suddenly burst out, colliding with Huan Meng with a smile on his face: "I will send you back to the West right away!"
"What a shameless statement." The latter responded with a straight punch: "Let's fight and decide quickly."
"Is there something wrong with the president?"
Outside the crowd at the rear, an ugly-looking Ye Lin looked at the front of the chaotic battlefield, holding his rapier and whispering: "I'm not anxious or nervous, but I still have the leisure to participate in such a battle... The president of another family's guild , they are probably training in secret right now.”
"Isn't it just that we lost the team competition? We are not a guild competing for the world, so we can just fight." Iron Heart crossed his arms and shook his head: "Believe me, our defeat... will make the president It’s more relaxed.”
"Guys like the president... are the most open-minded people about this kind of thing."
"... Hey, you can look away, but I can't."
"That's because you're young."
Iron Heart glanced at the opponent, and then put down his arm: "After so many years, he has never experienced success or failure. A mere defeat in a team competition... is really nothing."
"But we could have won." Yelin lowered his head and said, "We are familiar with that snow-capped mountain, and I am also good at sneak attacks..."
"Then I have to blame you." Iron Ambition continued with a look of disdain: "To be honest... Only a person with a temper like the president can tolerate your existence of running away from the battlefield."
"……Feel sorry."
"No need to apologize. If you take it seriously...the original glory will not be disbanded."
A smile slowly appeared on Iron Ambition's face: "Your boss will not be your boss."
boom!
Amidst the muffled sound that suddenly came from the front, the man in the windbreaker flew out together with the big man on the other side, and then rolled on the ground with two dragon-like streaks of dust in the direction of their respective camps: "...Hahahaha, okay! I haven't met such a powerful boxer for a long time..."
"Just... was that Long Fanyun just now?"
"...Is that person really a dream?"
Amidst the murmurs of the surrounding players, Nan Tieshan, who was shaking off the dirt, struggled to stand up. An arm suddenly appeared on his trembling shoulders: "Forget it, don't hit me."
"Get out of the way, get out of the way! It's not easy to meet an opponent, this kind of opportunity... Huh?" Nan Tieshan suddenly shook his shoulders, and then looked behind him in surprise: "Why did you come out?"
"Anyway, you're here, why don't you just send me in one more time?" Duan Qing replied with a playful smile, while waving to the open space in front of him as a greeting: "It's so lively today..."
"It should be much easier to sneak into the city, right?"
"Do you really think that our Iron Fist Gang has nothing to do all day long?" Nan Tieshan said disdainfully, but he stopped shaking his fist: "Although after losing to Lanshan, we really have nothing to do now..."
"Are you interested in joining the war?"
"No, it's okay to hit casually. To engage in such a big move...it doesn't fit in with the way we people behave."
Looking at several nearby gang members, the big man in black armor replied with a smile: "Besides, these boys are not the ones who just listen to others' orders. If they really go to the battlefield... they will only cause chaos for their own people."
"……makes sense."
Under the loud shouting that broke out again among several players, Duan Qing pointed to his nose with a smile: "We, the arrogant people, can just watch from the sidelines, but if this continues... Sooner or later, the flames of war will burn on us."
"...Yes." Nan Tieshan also scratched his head in distress, and then with the sound of fighting breaking out again in the front, he punched away an unlucky empire player who rushed to his side: "The first two We brothers discussed this matter the other day to see if we should move somewhere..."
"What about those previous investments?"
"Of course I gave up."
Swish——
Duan Qing knocked down another passing Empire player with his sword. Duan Qing looked at him sideways: "So generous? Just when I passed by the city gate, I saw your busy construction site several times."
"There's nothing we can do about it. The war is coming and we can't move away." Nan Tieshan spread his hands and responded: "But this is all on the premise of leaving, we didn't say we must leave... Damn it You Imperial people are so annoying! You guys, fight all those brats back!"
"Hey, hey, hey, I have something else to ask you. Don't come in if you see a group fight."
"I didn't say I wanted to go, hehehehehe... tell me, what else can you do?"
"...Let's find a place to hide first."
Seeing the melee between players becoming increasingly chaotic in front of them, the two of them took two steps back in unison, and finally braved the stray bullets in the sky and retreated to the side of the plain road, perching at the foot of a small tree. A girl holding a fiery red staff just retracted the hand that released the fireball, and then jumped to Duan Qing's side with a smile: "Brother Qingshan!"
"Oh, you changed your wife?" Before Duan Qing could answer, Nan Tieshan called out first: "It wasn't the snow or ice last time..."
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful if someone suddenly jumps out and knocks you to death."
With the girl's slightly shy expression, Duan Qing covered his forehead in distress: "They are all people who participated in the League Cup. I can't even remember the names of other professional players..."
"We usually only study selected opponents." Nan Tieshan said with a nonchalant smile: "But don't worry, how could I forget the teammates I once went through life and death with? I just...well, I don't know if it's inconvenient for you... …”
"Nothing." Duan Qing replied expressionlessly, and then placed the Thousand-Fingered Crane next to him like a doll: "This is someone's sister. For the time being... well, she is sending it to me for the time being. ,so……"
"oh--"
After deliberately making a long echo, Nan Tieshan clapped his hands and responded: "Okay, okay, I understand, you don't need to explain..."
"What, you don't believe it? By the way, have you informed your brother? Does he have the manpower?"
"I called last night. My brother said... the war there is very tight. Even if someone is willing to come, it may take a while..."
"……ok, I get it."
Patting the girl's slightly disappointed shoulder, Duan Qing sighed and thought for a while, and then looked back at Nan Tieshan's slightly surprised eyes and sighed: "Without anyone to help, I have to put in more effort on my own." , Big brother...big brother?"
"She is actually a younger sister..."
"ah?"
"Ah no no, it's nothing."
The big man hurriedly shook his hands: "That... brother! And this girl, if you have anything to do, just ask us, our Iron Fist Gang can help you solve it..."
"It's nothing serious, I just want to ask you to check something."
"Uh... check people? Oops, guys like us are really not very good at holding our voices and looking around outside..."
"If you count...this matter seems to have something to do with you."
"What?"
"Do you still remember our first encounter in the city?" Duan Qing blinked: "Before this, those people who had fought with you..."
"Did you get any clues later?"
Nan Tieshan did not answer, because his eyes also narrowed.
"Isn't it now said that someone is causing trouble in the city?" Duan Qing continued to whisper: "Although I don't have a clue yet, but thinking about what happened that day... those people seem to be the most suspicious ones."
"Well... I'll ask the brothers in the gang." Nan Tieshan replied thoughtfully: "The brothers who had the festival that day don't seem to be online yet, and it's hard to say whether they remember the faces of those people clearly. …”
"Brother, you must also want to catch their tails, right? There are also people who have been trying to chase me that day..."
"If the mole is them..."
"You're looking for them? That's great."
A voice suddenly sounded around several people. While Nan Tieshan suddenly became alert, Duan Qing sighed without looking back: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"It would be a pity not to take me with you for such a fun thing." The man in the windbreaker said with a smile: "And I didn't come to you originally, I just wanted to get to know this... well, the black-armored guy brother."
"Go away, Imperial people. I am the president of the guild and will not accept poaching." Duan Qing put on a serious face, then lowered his shoulders: "How many days have you been here, what do you want to do? ah?"
"What do you think?" Huanmeng blinked his eyes, and then pointed in the direction of the empire: "The people from Lanshan have already arrived, and our Dawn Glory... of course cannot fall behind."
"Why, are you starting to divide the cake now?" Duan Qing crossed his arms: "It's not certain whether your empire can win."
"The real strong ones dare to bet on both sides." Huanmeng said with a confident smile: "No matter which side wins, we will all be winners."
"Hey, still as confident as ever..."
"We have capital." Huan Meng raised her chin and said, "For example... maybe I know something about the person you are looking for?"
"..."
Duan Qing put down his arm and looked at the man in the windbreaker: "What do you know?"
"Wow, what do you want to do, rob me?" Huanmeng made a scared expression, and then made an exaggerated grimace: "Let me tell you, I am a snobbish man, and I have no good... I am not You might betray yourself!"
"...Say it." So Duan Qing had to stroke his forehead again: "What do you want?"
"In today's competition...you said something." Huanmeng also put away his joking expression: "To be honest, I am very interested in Falling Star Mountain, so..."
"How about you trade the information there with me?"
"Is this your condition?"
An inexplicable and strange face gradually appeared on his face, and Duan Qing's eyes stayed on Huan Meng for a long time: "With all due respect, you should have seen the scene above, it was how it looked in the game later..."
"So you have turned everything upside down, right?" Huanmeng also said, "What did you find there... tell me as well."
"..."
"Why, you're not happy? I'm not bragging. We've been squatting at the door of Tania for more than a day or two. I know exactly where those little mice are inside Tania..."
"No, no, no, I'm not considering the authenticity of your news."
Duan Qing smiled and waved his hand: "Even if what you said is completely false, you will still suffer in this transaction."
"……What's the meaning?"
"I mean, there's really nothing up there."
The smile on his face became bigger and bigger, Duan Qing put his hands on his back, and then gestured to Nan Tieshan, who had an equally strange look on his side: "If you don't believe it... you can confirm it with my big brother. "
"……oh?"
"He is also one of the parties involved." Duan Qing said: "He was also present at the time for all the things I know. The secrets..."
"Ask him if he can tell."
