"Has the news spread?"
"Not yet, but it will be a matter of time. The top novels are updated the fastest."
The plain to the west of Tania City has been occupied by large swaths of imperial troops. The players who followed the empire have also lost their original low-key attitude and are now surrounding the army with arrogance. wandering around. However, no matter how stupid the player is, they probably won’t want to use the guise of the empire at this time to regain some ground for the anger they received in the Talon Plains a few days ago. Just like the leader Wings of Liberty at this time, they also He was carefully staring at the imperial side's face: "I think those guys who are afraid of death will not accept this fact. As long as they are given some continuous pressure, they themselves will..."
"Was the information we had before...accurate?"
"Maybe."
The scholar-mage in white robe raised his monocle, and then put away the book in his hand: "Even if we are deceived, we are not the only ones who are deceived. There are so many guilds to protect us... "
"What we want is not a scapegoat, what we want is victory." Freefly looked forward with his hands behind his back, but his eyes turned around the soldiers who were ready to go: "Although the plan still goes according to our wishes It’s going down, but if there is no progress in that last step, all our efforts here will be in vain... Phew.”
"Why do I have an uneasy feeling?" He turned around: "Why do the Imperials stop here?"
"The suggestion we gave to Bernard at the beginning was only an action to deter the principality." The player named Yandong replied in a low voice: "The current result... is already in line with our original design. Jianghu and the Sword of Justice once again retreated outside the city. Players in the Principality are panicking. The small village of Tallan... is not enough to serve as a stumbling block to the empire."
"If it weren't for the emperor's order, we would have done this long before the finals." The scholar straightened his robe: "But... at this time, it is more accurate."
"This is the right time, even they are helpless." Speaking of this, Free Flying couldn't help but chuckled: "As long as nothing happens, we can wait for work and take both sides into our hands at the same time, hehehehe... "
"There are still some operations needed in the middle, and the pressure on the heart is the best effect." Yan Dong also laughed: "If the news is accurate, maybe the next actions... don't even need us to take action."
"The only thing that needs attention is the Sword of Justice. They only have the team competition left now, so they will have more free time."
"Taking care of both sides is originally impossible, unless we give up the victory of the game and send them to the semi-finals..."
"Okay, let's drive them down." Freefly pondered for a while: "There are more people than us... When have we, the Wings of Freedom, ever been afraid of others?"
"If there is still no movement in front, let the lurking team attack first, hit them first, and disrupt their position..."
"But Brother Tiepan...?"
"Well, don't let him lead the team yet. Since we are all preparing for the competition... let's let Brother Liangchen go. Didn't he contact the internal affairs? He probably already has a plan in mind... and Gardenia. If the inner room stays there, there shouldn't be any trouble, just ask the two of us to cooperate."
"Where are the people from other guilds? Do I need to inform them?"
"……No."
Freefly showed a thoughtful expression, but after a while he smiled disdainfully: "Look at them like that..."
"They are not here to help us kill people."
He turned his head and looked towards the distance where soldiers were everywhere and flags were everywhere. Another army of players was gathering loosely on the left and right. The leader, a man carrying a large shield, was also there at the moment. Mobilizing loudly to the surrounding players: "Although it is not a good thing, since we are here, we must show our own momentum and style! Let these principalities know that the empire does not belong to the Wings of Freedom family. , when we fight in Lanshan, we are not soft persimmons!"
"President, what about our competition?"
"It's just a competition, but it's been beaten to pieces... No, no, there's a team competition! You guys, don't interrupt!"
Cangyun Barrier pointed angrily, and then continued to admonish: "In short, if we lose on the field, we will get it back on the battlefield! Our family in Lanshan was founded on the battlefield, and they may still have a few moments in the game. , but this is war, a place where there are no rules! Today we must use our strength to educate those guys who jump in our faces on the field..."
"Didn't the president lose to the second best person in the world? What does it have to do with the people in the principality..."
"Cut the nonsense!"
Cangyun Barrier puffed his beard and said with a glare: "Anyway, I am idle. Who should I fight with? Stand still! Look at your appearance. You have been idle all day long. Do you still raise your shield? It’s not a shame for labor and management to bring you here. Once we get to the battlefield... Hey, I remember who told me that someone wanted to come to Tania to get involved?"
"Come on, what nonsense did that guy tell you again?"
"No, no, it shouldn't be him. He's been busy playing games recently, and no one has even seen him once..."
"Then who else could it be? We are living in the middle of nowhere, and not many people come to visit us at ordinary times... Ah, could it be someone from Wings of Freedom?"
"To put it bluntly, it would be nice if they didn't expect us to leave... By the way, it's that old guy Huanmeng!"
Cangyun Barrier suddenly clapped his thigh and shouted: "Is that guy still lurking in Tania? He has been in front of the two or five boys all day long, and even if he doesn't drown himself, he will be beaten to death by people on both sides... Listen. alright!"
"If a fight really starts, keep an eye on those people, the guys from the Jianghu, the guys from the Sword of Justice, and that fantasy dream of Glory..." He with a beard glared: "If you see them, all of them will... I'll fight to death!"
"Ah? Is this one of our own?"
"Aren't we here for an outing?"
"Yeah, what about the one who agreed not to take credit?"
"What does it have to do with grabbing credit? Fighting is about having fun!" Cangyun Barrier seemed to have given up convincing people with reason, and instead used a huge voice to suppress the complaints of the congregation: "The Sword of Justice lost the game a few days ago. Weren't we quite arrogant when we were young? Let them see what a true veteran is today!"
"So they are all degenerate people, why do you have to make trouble for them...cough, cough!"
The noisy sound passed by Cangyun Barrier. It was the sound of a group of imperial cavalry running past them. The dust, accompanied by the strong wind, swept past everyone, and several people who were driving "Pledge of Allegiance" were swept away. Conference" and the Lanshan congregation who had not yet officially set off for the expedition were covered in disgrace, and they all held their throats and coughed. When a group of players were flapping their clothes to avoid each other, a voice suddenly cut through the noise and rang in everyone's ears: "So, what if we meet someone who is suspected of being the Sky-Breaking Blade?"
"Ahem...you still need to ask?"
Cang Yun Barrier, which was also slapping its whole body, raised its shield and swung the flying dust to both sides.
"Of course he was beaten to death!"

"...Have you received the money?"
"...Okay, okay."
"...I know, the subsequent costs...I will think of another way."
"...Thank you in advance."
beep.
"well……"
The figure in the room sighed, sat quietly in the darkness for a while, then suddenly jumped up, put on his clothes, and ran towards the door. He passed through the blocks next to the square and inside the venue with ease. The little girl wearing a knitted hat greeted the staff coming and going from time to time. Finally, through the game cabin in the rest area, she came to the free world again: "Huh... …ha……"
"The air here is still fresh... Huh?"
She sniffed it with some confusion, and then asked her teammates next to her with a disgusted expression: "Why is there so much dust?"
"It's a war." Xiao Hongchen, who was playing Guandao, pointed to the front not far away, and then showed a rhetorical expression: "Why did you come so late? Didn't we go back together?"
"Uh... it's a bit of a personal matter, a bit of a personal matter."
Mengzhu waved his hands in embarrassment, and then suddenly reacted: "A war? Wow, are they from the Empire?"
"Who else could it be..." Whispering on the other side sighed and replied: "When it comes to war, this seems to be the only thing at the moment, right?"
"Then, that's dangerous!" The little girl still wearing a cloak hurriedly stood up from the bushes: "We'd better hurry up... uh, no, let's go to the front line and have a look. Where is uncle?"
"He has already set off early." Xu Yu Liushang replied, and then glanced at Xue Ling Huan Bing sitting in the corner: "He said he would be back soon, but..."
"Hmph, he must have sneaked out to be lazy again." The old look immediately returned to Mengzhu's face: "Where did he go? Let's go find him!"
"...Second Language Ninglan should follow him. If she leaves a message... we may be able to find it." Xuyu Liushang helplessly spread his hands: "But do you really want to do this? The war is about to break out, and there may be dangers ahead. It would be dangerous..."
"What are you afraid of? Isn't it just death once?" Mengzhu replied disdainfully: "At most it hurts a little... No, if we die now, are we going to resurrect in the city? Wouldn't that mean we will be tricked by the Empire? Oops. Don’t care anymore…”
"The principality still has so many defenders, as well as Jianghu Sword of Justice and so many other forces. Even if it is defeated... it won't be a disastrous defeat."
He glanced at the figure of the cloaked woman who was still motionless behind him, murmured, shook his head, and followed Mengzhu's footsteps. At the same time, he analyzed the situation in a low voice, which could be regarded as giving some comfort to the little girl. It didn't take long for the three of them to arrive at the garrison at the edge of the city. Then, behind a semi-finished cottage, they found the figure of a player dressed as a maid: "Sister Ninglan! Where's the uncle?"
Ningyu Ninglan, who stood with her hands side by side, smiled and said nothing, but pointed her finger forward. One of the two figures in front of him suddenly sneezed heavily: "A sneeze."
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing." Duan Qing rubbed his nose: "Maybe someone is scolding me."
"...Hey, you have so many enemies, this is retribution." The man in the trench coat on the side crossed his arms and showed a disdainful smile.
"What, aren't you a man with a big heart? Why are you so vindictive?" Duan Qing raised his eyes unceremoniously: "Could it be that you lost the game and your mind is distorted?"
"What do you think I am, the protagonist in a certain cartoon?" Huanmeng said angrily: "I'm not very capable, but my mental quality is not much better?"
"Isn't this how the normal routine works?" Duan Qing opened his hands and replied: "Then he determined to take revenge, killing thousands of innocent people by mistake, and finally stabbed his wife to death, and suddenly woke up and so on..."
"Stop, stop, stop, I'll stab you to death first." Huan Meng hurriedly raised his hand to warn: "Go on to business... Are you sure you read it correctly?"
"Combien, I've met him once. He used to be the boss of the Snow Wolf Army. I don't know now. He might have been promoted or something..."
"It's impossible. He's already so old. It's good that he hasn't been forced to retire." Huanmeng shook his head and replied, then frowned tightly: "Since he has also arrived, it means that this time it is Seriously..."
"Nonsense, so many people from the Wings of Freedom are following us. Why not fight, go on an outing?" Duan Qing stared: "I seem to have seen people from Lanshan..."
"Even if the Empire no longer attacks, these people will still come." Huanmeng crossed his arms and said, "We have come to this point, do you want them to let go? I heard that people from the Free City are coming to interfere. Already..."
"People from Liberty City? Aborigines or players?"
"Players, but I can't guarantee that they didn't come here with some monsters or monsters." Huan Meng replied: "In the competition server data we collected before, only the subordinates of the two guilds of Borderland and Devil's Paradise The line rate has already been reduced by 30%, not to mention that we are almost out of the game now."
"Your principality is really miserable." He sighed and concluded: "So many people are waiting for the wall to fall and everyone is pushing it..."
"Aren't you from the Empire? Why are you so concerned about the safety of the principality?" Duan Qing suddenly interrupted and asked.
"Didn't I say it? It's called betting on both ends. Although it's not as much as they make, we all benefit from whoever wins..."
"that's it?"
"That's all... Of course, if we insist on it, we still hope you win a little more." Huan Meng smiled and replied: "You are weak."
"Damn it, are you selling information from both sides?" Duan Qing shouted, "No, no, no, give me back the two hundred gold coins you just gave me..."
"Damn it, you can't even give up two hundred gold coins. How poor are you?" Huanmeng made a defensive gesture in response to the situation: "And do you think our family is the only one who does this? Neutral guilds are all Does it work well like this?"
"Neutral Guild? You mean... Vizard?"
"Of course." Huanmeng wiped his nose: "What do you think those people are doing now?"
"..."
"Of course he is plotting to gain."
The man in the trench coat pointed toward the city, with a smile on his face that showed success in conspiracy: "That guy who is planning a conspiracy doesn't have as many scruples as we do. They want to dig up all the land in the principality! At this time... …”
"It must be hiding in some corner, looking for some store in Tania."
"That's it."
At the same time, at the Blue Island Coffee Shop in Tania City, the scholar in black who was mentioned by them was enjoying the black coffee that had just been served and ordered the subordinates next to him: "Let them all get ready, it's a good show... …”
"The show will start soon."
