The concept of followers has appeared many times in the past game history. They often enter their game process in countless ways that players can imagine. The names and methods used also vary depending on the game theme. Different, some are mercenaries recruited through the recruitment system, and some are followers who voluntarily follow because of the triggered events and plots. However, no matter how they become the player's help, the common denominator of "obeying the player's orders" is often not the same. It will change.
Judging from Duan Qing's past experience, it seems that this unrealistic setting should not appear in the game Free World.
"Let's take a look, let's take a look, health points, physical strength points, and health status... Okay, although I very much agree with your free world designing such a thing as health status, what do you mean when you write sick? Do you want me to play doctor?"
"Strength is a question mark, agility is a question mark, intelligence is a question mark, spirit... 36? Wow, what kind of ghost attribute is this? The body is as weak as the players in Novice Village, but the spirit is so high. Is it possible that this world still relies on spirit? Is it a job to eat?”
"Race? Oknos clan? Let's not talk about whether there should be a human being written here. Shouldn't her original clan be called the Geth clan? Do you think you can get rid of this fact with a golden font? ?”
"The equipment is also full of question marks. You can't let me identify it myself, right? There are also skills. You don't tell me any of the skills. Do you want me to test it myself? Come on, try a skill... Oh, by the way, listen. You don’t understand what I said.”
"Then what use do I have for you!"
Putting his palm on his forehead again, Duan Qing looked up to the sky and sighed, as if the woman in front of him was not some pie dropped by God for no reason, but a big trouble that he needed to take care of himself. The foreign woman, who was sitting in front of the fire while holding her collar, was looking at the adventurer master in front of her with doubtful eyes. Her trembling eyes caused by her trembling body seemed to be unable to understand the grasping actions the other party was making. What is the meaning of Kuang’s movements? However, several other players sitting in the corner heard clearly what he had muttered before. At this time, they also hurriedly expressed their eager curiosity: "Brother Mo What did you say? She became your follower?"
"Yes, although I haven't figured it out yet..."
"You really picked up a big living person!"
The fat thief named Feitian Qixia slithered in front of Duan Qing and instantly interrupted his affirmative answer: "Awesome! So awesome! What an idol!"
"Stop, stop, stop!" Duan Qing hurriedly pushed the fat face in front of him aside: "I didn't do anything, and it ended up like this. What else can I say? I'm also very desperate, okay? good?"
"Then why don't you give it to me!" Yangtze River No. 7, with shining eyes, also shouted and came over: "How do you do it? Sign a contract? Recognize the master? Do I have to bite my finger and wipe some blood on it? On her forehead... Oops!"
"Stay away from that pretty lady, you're scaring people." Lieyan Legend, with a dull look on his face, then appeared behind him, and with the retracted hand knife, he lifted Yangtze River No. 7's body like a chicken. Later: "...It should be the result of the song that was sung before, right? Was it a contract signing ceremony?"
"Maybe." Finally, a guy who seriously discussed the current situation appeared, and Duan Qing's eyes quickly calmed down: "I don't know, but... go on."
He stretched out his hand and threw the Okonos Stone that he had put away into the opponent's arms. Then when the system showed no movement, he lowered his head slightly: "Well...it seems to be the same as this stone." It doesn’t matter.”
"The purpose and value of this stone have been clearly written on it." Looking at the stone back and forth for a while, Legend of Flames replied with a low smile: "Since it is a decoration that can be used by players, then Of course it's not a contract stone or anything like that..."
"I thought she could be kept in some special space like a pet." So Duan Qing replied with some regret: "It's very troublesome now, I still have to take care of this guy..."
"Although I don't know if other players in this world have ever had the concept of followers, but now there are many situations where NPCs act with players on the streets." Legend of Flame spread his hands and said: "You have more Such a thing shouldn’t be a problem, right?”
"That's nice to say, look at what she looks like." Pointing to the still shivering figure of the woman next to him, Duan Qing hit his forehead again: "I don't know if there are many situations like this in the Independent State. But if we let her out now..."
"The sensation caused is probably no less than that of other hot topics."
Following his fingers, the eyes of several people then focused on the woman named Ayina again, and then lingered for a moment on the clear eyes and exotic and beautiful face vaguely exposed under the hood. , swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily. The half-hidden figure of the woman covered by the cloak was also looming in the swaying light of the bonfire, making the suddenly silent atmosphere a little drier. Duan Qing, who was watching this scene, then also He coughed twice and dispersed all the people's eyes that seemed to be real: "...Look."
"If you don't look carefully, it's really hard to spot that this is a beautiful woman." The Flying Stranger looked away and exclaimed in amazement: "What a delicious pie."
"The characters created by the system are naturally better." Tudou, who was sitting behind him, also raised the long sword he had been cleaning again: "It's just because of the embarrassing appearance before and a series of events that happened later. The incident has just been covered up."
"I don't believe this. Why don't you go to Novice Village and find two village aunts to come out and take a look?" The fat man immediately turned around and retorted: "If the quality of NPCs in Novice Village in the free world is like this one, we are still in a hurry. Why do you want to come out and have fun?"
"So...this also explains one thing."
His eyes gradually fell on Aiina, who shrank behind Duan Qing again because of the convergence of eyes. Legend of Lieyan said in a low voice: "The identity of this woman is probably not that simple."
"Of course it's not simple. Didn't I analyze it before?" Duan Qing smiled and shook his head: "This woman is probably at the core of the power of the Geis tribe, otherwise she wouldn't be so anxious to return to her original tribe. of the location.”
"You know that's not what I'm referring to." Lieyan Legend, who stared at Duan Qing, took a deep breath, turned around and threw the emerald green cube back into his hand: "This stone, and that The singing is like a ritual... If you say there is no secret about this woman, I definitely don’t believe it.”
"... Of course I know this." Lowering his head to look at the cube in his hand, Duan Qing's voice returned to its original low tone: "But..."
“There are many things in this world where there is no way to solve the problem even if we know it exists.”
*************************
"Is the matter resolved?"
"...It's almost done, but it still depends on the performance of our princess."
"Those old guys... still want to wait and see the abilities of their heirs?"
"There are several heirs now. After all, Chu Yunhe has controlled the Chu family for two years. Whether it is relationships or connections, he has managed them flawlessly..."
In the real world, on a riverside not far from the center of Hualan City, a family meeting is being held on a large cruise ship suspended above the river, with countless people coming and going. The low buzz of the magnetic rail power decorated the surrounding lively scene. Although the rolling river water is not as beautiful and clear as the river water in the free world, the momentum it generates is still enough to shock everyone who sees it, but compared with the few figures who are arguing with each other on the cruise ship, that The turbulent momentum seems to be a little worse: "I emphasize again, I have gone through enough time and tests, and I am confident that I will accept the current reputation of the Chu family, as well as everything in the Chu family."
"All the reputation of the Chu family? Are you sure you can afford it? The old family master once entrusted Tianxiang Company and Wings of Freedom to you, but now... look what you have done?"
"You actually have the nerve to say this, Chu Mingqing! Don't think that I don't know what you did in this. Do you want me to expose the dirty things you did in this?"
"Don't talk about similar arguments anymore. My dear sister, I can tell hundreds of things without evidence, but they are just random fabrications that I can deny immediately..."
Surrounding an old long circular table, a group of figures, old and young, were looking at the heated debate going on in front of them in various sitting positions. The faces on the table also appeared. There were various reactions, some of them even had drowsy expressions on their faces that were wrinkled due to old age. Chu Yunhe, who had almost the same reaction as others, was sitting quietly on the circular table gallery at this time. In the center, the man with his eyes closed seemed to be turning a blind eye to the fierce debate taking place in front of him, but the constantly tapping fingers and beating eyelids still showed his slightly unnatural state of mind at this time: "..."
"What do you think?"
The old and low questioning voice then echoed in his ears, and at the same time, the tilted face of an old man sitting next to him appeared: "The other party's accusations... seem to be all on you now." "
"Justice lies in the heart of the people."
After adjusting his formal clothes, Chu Yunhe replied calmly: "I have to say that this child from my eldest brother's family has pretty good courage and courage, but when it comes to lying... she seems to be a little bit behind. The heat."
"That is to say... Mr. Dai Patriarch has denied all the accusations against Chu Lingbing?" The old man continued unmoved and asked again: "Interfering in the internal affairs of Tianxiang Company, and... designing to kill the original Chu family What’s going on with the head of the family, Chu Yunfeng?”
"certainly."
Without any change in his face or sitting posture, Chu Yunhe replied quickly and calmly: "Everything is nonsense. The rest of the defense... I don't want to say a word more."
"The family meeting held at this family dinner was a mistake in itself."
Following his father's statement, Chu Mingqing, who had been confronting the other party, immediately said loudly: "It's a waste of life! It's a waste of the elders' time! I thought that you who disappeared inexplicably a few days ago had the idea of defecting. I didn’t expect that you would do such a vicious frame-up as soon as you came back!”
"Whether my actions are reasonable or not...is not for you to judge." The woman sitting at the other end of the table gallery threw her long black hair behind her, and her face that seemed pale due to lack of rest also became A little colder: "It was decided jointly by everyone present and the elders present."
"...Based on those wild words you said before?"
"…and the testimony I brought."
There seemed to be a cold air in his words, and Chu Lingbing leaned forward slightly in his upright posture: "I have been with Tianxiang Company for three years and have witnessed all the development processes, including the entire Wings of Freedom. I have always seen all the despicable things you people have done in this. The reason why I am sitting here today is just because everyone needs me to sit here. Every time I attend this banquet, A slight move...will affect their future."
"The accusation from Nan Xiaowu is not the first one to appear within the Wings of Freedom guild, and it is definitely not the last one." She frowned, and the momentum she originally exuded when confronting Chu Mingqing also increased a little. : "Since the status of the head of the family has been affected, I... naturally have the obligation to personally expose this matter."
"Be respectful, you are facing the current head of the Chu family in Jiangnan!" Chu Mingqing, who did not want to be at a disadvantage, also raised his voice by two points: "Do you really think that the elders present will believe you? What are you saying and doing now?"
"It is precisely because the elders present have doubts about your father that our family banquet can be held this time." Chu Lingbing still replied with a cold voice: "Otherwise... I would never be able to sit here. ,brat."
"you……"
As if thinking of some terrible possibility, the arrogant young man suddenly looked at every figure around the table gallery, and then stopped his movement to speak again in the still unchanged atmosphere around him. . The silent silence then lasted for a moment on the dining table filled with delicious food, and then gradually disappeared as an old man sitting next to Chu Yunhe spoke. The old man opened his eyes that had been closed and spoke with seemingly He looked at the woman opposite him with turbid eyes: "Let me confirm again..."
"Do you want to stick to your accusation, Lingbing?"
"...It's not just that."
Looking around at the other people around, Chu Lingbing's deep voice echoed in the corridor where the needle could be heard: "As the daughter of the Chu family, I hereby propose -"
"Hold the family promotion ceremony in advance, Lord Yunluo."
