By the way...how long has it been since I was so tired?
When he was a teenager, he aspired to become a professional gamer, but was frustrated countless times. Later, he settled for the next best thing. His ambition to become a studio player was dashed by the collapse of his studio. His ideal was defeated countless times by the ruthless reality. It was an extremely sad thing, but it did not make me fall down like the other studio members. Losing the life of the team did not make me give up easily, and turned to become a member of the free world. A thug in a hired team. Relying on his ability to almost become a quasi-professional player, he finally managed to maintain this temporary job that he used as a way to make a living. However, due to his innate arrogance and fundamental ambition, he was not able to do this. With that attitude, my life in that team became more and more difficult as the relationship between the various team members deteriorated.
Compared with what I have experienced on my career path, setbacks such as being ostracized and exiled are actually nothing at all, including the series of mission hell I experienced yesterday... Well, well, well, well, well, well. !
Sure enough, I still have a bit of a headache just thinking about it.
Sighing slightly, he opened his eyes, and then saw the bright sunshine in the early morning of March 7, 796 in the new calendar of the free world, together with a blue and white maid uniform bathing in the sunshine. , the beautiful woman with short black hair tied up with a blue and white ribbon came into his eyes. As if he couldn't believe his eyes, the giant ax warrior named Asahi Dongsheng rubbed his cheek vigorously, and then he knitted his head in the increasingly hot summer wind and a smile that was almost completely consistent with this temperature. Baba said his first words after going online today: "Hello, this beautiful, beautiful lady, may I ask -"
Boom!
Suddenly there was a heavy knocking sound behind him, causing the next sentence he had just summoned up the courage to say to choke back in his throat. The voices belonging to Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing also seemed to burst out. The sound of frying beans sounded like a sound in front of him who suddenly turned around: "Another one! Another one! How many do you need to get to feel at ease?"
"Wha, what are you talking about! Is this what I want to get? Besides, it's not like you don't know this person..."
"I know it! It's not good that I know it! Since I can't reach out and drive people out...then I have no choice but to attack you!"
"Hey, hey, don't, don't, don't be so violent, okay? You get angry easily like this. What if you can't get married in the future... Oops!"
A rolling gourd-like sound then sounded in Asahi Dongsheng's ears, and by the way, the figure in gray robes belonging to Duan Qing who rolled out of the door in embarrassment was sent to him, looking down at the gray-headed and earth-faced man. The giant axe warrior then blinked his eyes, and his eyes flickered back and forth between the two people, Xue Ling Huan Bing behind him and Dark Language Ning Lan in front of him: "So, what is the situation now?"
"It's okay! Stay inside!" He was answered by a roar from Xue Ling Huan Bing, whose tone was also full of the meaning of "please don't continue to annoy me": "Or you want to start today's story now? Mission? Then you can go!"
"We, our task assignment hasn't started yet, hahaha."
Chao Ri Dongsheng, who shrunk his neck and let out two dry laughs, involuntarily took two steps back toward the corner outside the broken house: "You can't just go out empty-handed, right?"
"...Where is Gedman?" So Xue Ling Huan Bing glanced around with her hands on her hips: "Why hasn't he come yet?"
"I don't live with him, how do I know his condition?"
After muttering such words, Asahi Dongsheng hurriedly smiled and pushed aside Xue Ling Huan Bing's quick gaze: "No, no, no, what I mean is...well, even if he comes, we are not Did you take in a new Yumeng person? If we want to assign a new task, we have to wait at least until all five of them are here before we can continue, right?"
"Did you explain our situation to Yumeng yesterday? Did he agree to help us continue to develop this firm?"
Rubbing his forehead and getting up from the ground, Duan Qing, who was still gasping for air, then asked in a low voice: "I drank a lot of wine last night, and I didn't seem to talk about any serious matters."
"Yeah, that guy seems to be pretty good at drinking... No, no, that's not what I meant."
Asahi Dongsheng stretched his hands flat in front of him again, as if he wanted to block those sword-like eyes in this way, and explained in a loud voice: "We just, uh... we just first put forward the bright prospects of our team's future. Brag to him! Isn’t this the way major teams recruit people now? Benefits and benefits are filled first, leaving aside the miserable future full of hard work and overtime..."
"It seems that he is also an experienced headhunter. He is quite capable of drawing cakes and blowing up balloons." Duan Qing nodded slightly, dusted himself off and got up from the ground with a wry smile: "Of course, if you can Tell him all the consequences of not obeying our arrangements, and force him to comply with both kindness and force, and the distance between you and a good leader will become closer and closer - am I right?"
"……snort."
Staring hard at the other party, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was standing at the door with his arms folded, gradually put away his angry expression: "Don't think I didn't hear what you wanted to say, but..."
"Let's forget about this time." She glanced at the door in front of her, then slowly turned her head: "Come in, everyone. Let's discuss today's arrangements when everyone is here."
"Okay, okay."
Duan Qing and Asahi Dongsheng, who were bowing side by side, nodded in unison and bent their waists deeply. Then, after a moment of silence, they both looked at the maid player standing at the door, smiling and motionless: " Ah, and she...who is she? What should we do?"
"It doesn't matter to you, just go in." Duan Qing answered him with an indignant and heroic expression: "Since the president does not agree, I will do the job of plugging the bullet holes."
"No, no, no, brother Lin, why do you have to sacrifice yourself like this? Since the boss lady is angry, I should bear the anger."
"No, no, no, let me do it."
"I'm coming, I'm coming! Don't forget my name as a 'Trendy Boy'! As a hero who once floated among thousands of flowers, such a small scene can't do anything to me..."
"What? When did you have such a name again? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"Hey, isn't this Ms. Ninglan, who is secretly speaking?"
A loud and deep greeting then sounded outside the two people, belonging to the far side of the street where Ninglan was sniggering. The player named Gedman then broke through the edge of the line of sight where several people were looking at him, and headed towards Duan Qing and others came over from the direction where they were: "Why are you here? Are you here to visit the imperial capital? Are you here with a temporary mission, or do you have news about that person?"
"...Hello, sir."
His eyes stayed on Duan Qing's face for a moment, and Ninglan smiled and shook her head: "Ninglan did hear something, so she came here."
"Oh, that's really an honor."
Laughing and nodding his head, Goldman's eyes then fell on the faces of the other two people: "Why, why are you looking at me like this? I was once a member of a big guild. What's wrong with someone who has led a top elite group for a long time and knows this player who is one of the best among the top players?"
"Okay, uncle, how many brushes do you have?"
In a few moments, he rolled over to Gedman's side, and Asahi Dongsheng, who held the opponent's shoulders and neck, hurriedly dragged the shirtless shield warrior aside: "Stop bragging or anything like that, tell me quickly. If you make up the story of this woman’s origin, I will believe you this time.”
"What, what do you mean by making it up? What I said is true."
"What I said is true! I think back then I was not only known as the trendy boy, but I was also nicknamed the Black-faced Judge! Do you want to give it a try?"
"Come on, do I still know what kind of abilities you have? If you could judge others, when you were in Tanzania—"
The sound of hurried silence then sounded in the corner of the street, accompanied by Asahi Dongsheng's hurried movement to raise his hand to cover the other person's mouth. He raised his head and looked at Duan Qing and Anyu Ninglan, who were squinting. With a somewhat embarrassed smile, he then pulled the dancing Goldman towards the house: "In this case, I will ask for information first. Before Yumeng arrives, we will wait in the house first... …”
"You come in quickly, too."
After winking at Duan Qing for a while, he then pulled Goldman and disappeared into the dim dilapidated house. Duan Qing, who was looking at all this, rubbed his wrists and sighed, then turned back and kept talking to him. Smiling Ciyu Ninglan looked at each other: "How did you find this place so quickly?"
"Miss Yushang gave Ninglan a lot of information, so that Ninglan could find this place smoothly."
Pointing towards a certain direction outside the Central Street, Ninglan whispered and shook her head with a low smile: "Ninglan was resurrected in the Sky City. She used the teleportation circle to reach such a fast speed. Although I still encountered a lot of things along the way when I came here, sir, but..."
"Fortunately, sir hasn't left yet." She tilted her head, and the smile on her face became obviously more genuine: "Otherwise, Ninglan would have continued to pursue sir."
"...Don't worry, I won't leave."
After standing there in silence for a while, Duan Qing slowly walked forward and hugged the other person: "I won't leave."
The pupils opened slightly, and the hugged Anyu Ninglan gradually showed a happy smile. The responding hands then fell on Duan Qing's back along with a few tears rolling down his eyes. Above: "Sir...Master...Ninglan, I...I..."
"It's okay, it's okay." Feeling the other person's body getting softer and her strength disappearing, Duan Qing comforted her and patted her back: "It's all over, it's okay."
"Ninglan... I thought... I could... without any regrets..."
The voice gradually became choked, and the pretty oval-like face belonging to the secret language Ninglan was buried deeply into Duan Qing's shoulder: "But later... when they started to torture Ninglan... Ninglan so afraid……"
"My Ninglan is still a flesh-and-blood person after all. This makes me feel very at ease."
Still maintaining the slapping motion, Duan Qing turned to look at the sky above his head: "Ninglan's loyalty has been proven long ago. Ninglan has nothing to do with me. Even if you really betray me, If you stab me in the back, I won’t be angry.”
"No! Ninglan will never-"
"I see."
Pushing the tearful maid's panic expression in front of her, Duan Qing smiled and shook her body: "You know I didn't mean that, and I don't want you to still treat yourself as my vassal. , since you made the decision to save Mengzhu at that time, you have the consciousness to become an independent person, right?"
"I'm glad to see this, Ninglan."
Putting on a bright smile at the other party, Duan Qing retracted his hands: "I have been looking forward to this moment for a long time since the two of us grew up together. I must remember to stand up in the future, so that I can Fight against everything you don’t want and pursue what you do want.”
"gentlemen……"
"How are you feeling? Is there nothing serious?"
Looking at the other person's expression that he was so choked up that he didn't know what to do, Duan Qing smiled and changed the topic: "I know your mental state. Even if you count from the day of the mutation, you have too little rest time. Alright?"
"Ninglan is fine." She shook her head vigorously and shook away the tears. Ninglan clasped her hands on her chest: "Sir! Is there anything wrong with your body?"
"I have adapted to living in this virtual world."
Waving his hands to signal the other party to follow him, Duan Qing walked towards the direction of the broken house: "But you are different from me. You have been tortured for too long. According to my understanding of the Duan family, they should not give you anything. It’s better to leave enough physical strength and energy to escape.”
"Of course, I'm very happy that you can take the trouble to find me." He stopped the maid behind him from saying what he wanted to say, and at the same time supported the weak body of the other party who was leaning against his back: "Since I have already supported You are more independent, so I have no reason or position to continue to make irresponsible remarks on your own decisions."
"This is just a suggestion." He walked to the door of the broken house, then turned back and whispered: "Of course, if you still insist, then I will have to find something else for you... uh, something more neutral. The way."
"You can help look after the house here." In the interlaced scene of light and shadow, he nodded towards Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had been looking at him in the house: "Just in time -"
"I can also owe Qian Zhihe a little less favor."
