Finding Duan Qing is not the first time Xueling Huanbing has said such words, nor is it the first time she has made an oath when she made up her mind to find Duan Qing's whereabouts. Now that she and the other party parted ways again, the feeling of regret and anxiety lingering in her heart made her shouting and running movements become a little more urgent. The energy storm in front of her and the changes that were about to happen in the imperial capital Redkar seemed to have lost their original meaning in her eyes. Instead, she looked around for the possible differences between every player passing by on the street. The idea of becoming a gray-robed magician. This single idea became more and more pure among the gradually increasing number of players on the streets at night. It was not until the commotion from the palace hill gradually spread that it was finally drawn away. : "Someone invaded the palace at this time"
"It should be that some well-intentioned guy's secret plan has been fully launched." Liushang, who had been following her and was also looking for Duan Qing, responded in a low voice: "I didn't want to make such a big noise before. Stopping, no matter how you think about it, it should be related to subverting the empire. Now that Redkar's defense force has been fully mobilized, the next step should be to attack the palace."
"Duan Qing, will Duan Qing go to that place?"
"How do I know? I tried my best to get back to this place."
A bit of unnoticeable worry flashed through his eyes, and his murmuring reply sounded a bit like he was mumbling to himself: "He had already spent a lot of energy saving people before, but in the game he encountered this again. Such an accident”
"You must never fall into these troubles again."
Once again, they crossed several streets where players began to appear, and the footsteps of a few people finally stepped onto the edge of the street near the central area. The scoffing sounds caused by the intertwined sword energy later broke through the screams and shouts of those players. The commotion gradually appeared in their ears along the steps leading to the top of the hill: "He is a wind magician and archer, prepare to pay attention to the top of your head."
"Shoot him down for me, be careful with the fireball technique."
"How is it possible to transform elements so quickly and have such powerful power? Is he a great magician?"
"Where is our magician? Stop him quickly."
The loud explosion then sounded among the group of people who were shouting and entangled at the foot of the mountain, accompanied by the brilliant light and fire caused by the sudden bright fireball in the darkness intertwined with the ground. , a solid and thick earth wall suddenly rose in front of the chaotic group of guards, blocking their figures who wanted to rush up the steps again under the narrow mountain road. It was obvious that the familiar aura of the gray-robed magician was detected in this series of magic attacks. The white figure belonging to Snow Spirit Huanbing took the lead in rushing out of the darkness of the shadow, and passed through countless people with unabashed steps in the next moment. The shoulder of the player who was watching on the street chased towards the bottom of the steps at the foot of the mountain: "Duan Qing"
"Hey, can you calm down a little first?"
"An accomplice of the intruder"
A prompt to stop her appeared behind the white-haired woman, but was immediately covered up by the shouts of a large group of imperial guards turning around in front of her: "Stop them, don't let them do it." Rush up the mountain"
"Go back first. These are top guards dozens of levels higher than us."
He hurriedly pulled Xue Ling Huan Bing back, who was about to collide head-on with the imperial guards. He threw out a large piece of fiery red sword energy with his backhand, and then quickly pulled each other's figures into the alley where they came from: "We But there is no way to fly like that guy, and we don’t have the strength to fight these royal guards head-on."
"He's right up there."
Staring closely at the top of the long stairs and the brightly lit palace, Xue Ling Huan Bing gritted her teeth and said, "What does he want to do if he wants to go to the palace?"
"Perhaps you want to help us attract attention." Looking at the figures of the royal guards who rushed up again after the fiery red sword energy, Xu Yu Liushang guessed gloomily: "After all, you were so determined to rush into that energy before. In the storm, he had no intention of stopping him."
"I, I might know what he wants to do."
Standing aside and raising his hands, Qian Zhihe, who had been following the two women, finally spoke up: "I, when I left the Poole family, he once told me those things. He seemed to have lost something, and seemed to be looking for someone."
"That's right, the great magician who was with you before. She seems to have disappeared." Looking at the eyes of the two female swordsmen who turned around in unison, she shrank her neck and then showed her twinkling eyes again. : "If he didn't follow me in the end, he should have gone looking for the great magician."
"Is that great magician Violet?"
Her bright eyes flickered violently for a while, and she turned to look at Xue Ling Huan Bing's face in a whisper: "When did she regain consciousness and can she move freely?"
""
Without immediately answering the other party's question, Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes flashed with a light of enlightenment. The white sword blade that was gradually withdrawn to his chest seemed to have lost its original fighting spirit, and fell on it together with his lowered eyes. He put it in the scabbard beside his waist: "She, she should have been by my side protecting me, but"
"Okay, don't think about it anymore."
Throwing out a large piece of scattered flame sword energy again, the blue-haired female swordsman tried her best to push back the imperial guards who were about to rush in front of her again. Her deep voice was accompanied by her long blue hair, Slowly echoed in the ears of several players present: "No matter what happens in the middle, we only need to focus on the situation in front of us. Since that guy has made such an arrangement, naturally there should be His own truth.”
"As for putting himself in danger, we will settle the matter after we get him back." She tightened the Hua Yan in her hand, and the next moment she led the people to retreat: " Now we have to plan carefully and find a way to break through the defense lines of these guards."
"It's best not to attract the attention of these enemies, otherwise we might become the ones taking the blame for the Restorationists and Wings of Freedom." Pulling the slightly depressed Xue Ling Huan Bing to follow him Qian Zhihe's face finally showed a serious and mature look: "It's best to wait until the vigilance of the guards in front recedes, and then find another direction to sneak up the mountain."
"Leide Mountain in the imperial capital is a place specially chosen by the royal family to build the palace. Usually there is no other way to go up." Looking back at the foot of the nearby hill, the pair of beautiful brows that were whispering were also Then they frowned deeply: "And because of that guy's body."
"In short, we don't have time to waste, we must quickly bring him back."
She turned her head, and her decisive and ruthless expression returned to her autumn-like eyes along with her tense cheeks. The fiery red flowers that bloomed from the Huayan sword also seemed to be floating in the long river. Like a beacon, they bloom among the scattered people surrounding this street. The grand fiery red flowers and the screams of the crowd drowned by the flowers then continued to surround the central area of the imperial capital Redkar, distantly intersecting with the energy storms that were still rising not far away. Then, the deliberately caused commotion overshadowed the conflict caused by Duan Qing alone and the pursuing imperial guards, and soon reached the ears of Duan Qing, who was running up the mountainside: "It's Hua Yan's fireworks." .”
"I see, you're here too."
The golden light condensed in his hands once again turned into brilliant blue energy, flowing down bit by bit along the white jade steps he just ran through. The ice blue light representing the water element was also followed by those who had worn it. Bai's old steps condensed into lines of imperceptible ice, and the guards who were trying their best to catch up fell to the ground one by one: "Be careful where you step with the Ice Condensation Technique."
"Anyway, no one has climbed up the stairs for a long time, so just think of sweeping the steps."
A smile emerged from the corner of his mouth, and Duan Qing, who no longer paid attention to the messy scene, continued to climb higher: "If you are unwilling to clean up, you can stay where you are and have a rest."
"You, you bastard" came an angry warning from one of the guards below: "Do you think there aren't any of our guards up there? They will definitely kill you."
"It's true that rushing forward so openly does have the meaning of risking death, but due to current events, I don't care so much anymore."
Duan Qing exhaled lightly, and focused his eyes again on the end of the stairs in front of him: "Sure enough, we still have to force our way through? I hope there won't be any grand welcome team above."
"If it doesn't work, just explain it to His Majesty." He said to himself, but his eyes were on the light staff held tightly in his hand: "Although it is also a kind of failure to capture without mercy. Choice, but not a last resort”
Bang.
A crisp sound of landing appeared next to him. It was the sound made by the white staff that suddenly fell from his hands and fell on the steps. Duan Qing, who seemed to have been aware of it for a long time, also stopped and went up. Stepping forward, his eyes full of wry smiles also fell on the fingers of his right hand that had loosened the staff: "Sure enough, it is because too much experience has been used, and the ability has dropped to the point where it cannot be equipped? Is it because the devices of your systems It’s really harsh, isn’t it?”
"Perhaps it's not just because of this." A dizzy feeling quickly hit his head, interrupting his attempt to turn around and pick up the staff: "This is better. In addition to being caught without mercy, I There seems to be no choice."
Gritting his teeth, he slowly picked up the extremely heavy staff of light. Duan Qing, who checked the character's attributes, then shook his head and carried the weapon back behind him. He had paused for a long time but Still moving forward without hesitation, he slowly approached in the direction of the old magic stone pillars that were about to reach the top: "What an extremely unlucky day. I haven't even had time to accept what happened before me. , everything just rushed to my head like a duck on the shelf.”
Snapped.
The crisp sound of magic diversion then echoed in his ears, lighting up all the ancient magic stone pillars that were originally silent. The white pillars that seemed to be acting as street lamps also illuminated both sides of the steps extremely brightly. At the same time, the huge doorway belonging to the palace hall not far away was displayed in front of Duan Qing: "That's right."
"We didn't expect things to suddenly develop to this point."
An old and dull voice then sounded in Duan Qing's ears. In the interlacing white light at the end of the steps, the prime minister named Caldera then withdrew his sight and disappeared with his hands behind his back. In the direction of the palace: "Come here."
"Why are you here, Prime Minister?"
Duan Qing opened his mouth inexplicably, and the exhausted Duan Qing finally chose to follow the other party: "It's so late, are you and your ministers still discussing things in the palace?"
"Deliberation haha."
Glancing sideways at the other party, the old prime minister in rich attire replied without looking back: "There is nothing wrong with this statement. We are indeed discussing something."
"Speaking of which, this matter has something to do with you."
The dim door slowly opened on both sides as the old man walked to the entrance of the palace. With Duan Qing's surprised eyes, it gradually extended into the dark night sky. At this time, the main hall without guards standing on both sides seemed to be... Like ancient ruins that had been lost in history for thousands of years, they welcomed the arrival of the gray-robed magician in an empty and quiet manner. After forcibly cheering up, Duan Qing, who looked around, still couldn't find any guards or weapons that could be called threats around the hall. The familiar sight he had seen a few days ago didn't seem to affect him at this time. To bring any help, the huge red pillars and the empty dome of the hall that still stand under the night sky are used to welcome the arrival of this adventurer: "You"
Duan Qing gradually closed his open mouth, and then replaced the surprise in his eyes with a look of understanding: "He is the head of your Ida family."
"Long time no see, adventurer."
Smiling and nodding, the middle-aged man named Trilik Ida who had met him in the Ida family smiled and sat back in his original seat: "Being able to witness our event at this time The banquet may be your honor.”
"Please take a seat."
He gestured towards one of the empty seats where the high-level forum was located, stretched out his arm and said with a smile.
