The tense and solemn atmosphere paused for a moment with the appearance of these words, and then suddenly dispersed with the smile of Her Royal Highness the Princess. The looming and beautiful face hidden behind the gauze hat also slowly He raised the corners of his mouth, but the words he spoke were still full of sharp meaning: "What a surprise - did I send someone to rescue the top leader of the enemy country?"
"Why, that mysterious great magician is not a member of your empire?" Facing the opponent's stretched-out finger, Pamir's face was still full of smile: "That magician with powerful life force is not a great A member of the First Princess of the Fleur Empire?"
"...Even if you are so polite to me, I will not admit the fact that shouldn't exist." There was no change in expression due to Pamir's continued flattery, and Reina's eyes became much calmer: " Please do not deliberately impose these titles on us, we will not change the empire’s position just because of your flattery.”
"Oh? Really?" He raised his hand to stop Fatty Yang next to him from making an angry sound. The middle-aged man lying on the bed had a slightly doubtful look on his originally smiling face: "But according to our According to the previous investigation, there seems to be no such person among the magicians and magicians affiliated with the Principality."
"Even Wiggins himself has clarified the matter."
He pointed to the top of his head, and set his sight in a certain direction outside the window as if he was reminding something. The shadow belonging to the Sky City was now hanging with a magical brilliance that could attract all players. At the end of the sky above Tania, there are still a lot of black shadows of magicians flying back and forth from time to time: "——I understand."
"This is your biggest reliance, right?"
Withdrawing her gaze, Her Royal Highness Princess Reina's voice also became deeper: "Since there is a Council of Mages and the city sitting here, no one has the chance to provoke a dispute."
"Tanya is seriously damaged now, and we will not have the idea of initiating a conflict under any circumstances." Pamir gestured to the surroundings: "Including the current meeting - we hope that both of us can put down our hatred, Let’s resolve this matter peacefully.”
"Including the incident involving His Royal Highness Prince Chris." He looked at Lux Yang beside him, and his voice involuntarily softened a bit: "We are willing to temporarily put aside our prejudices and sit down and talk together, how about it?"
The low voice seemed extremely light, but it sounded full of refreshing power. Her Royal Highness Princess Rena, who was located in the center of the ward, then nodded with satisfaction, as if she had grown up from a long time ago. While waiting, I got the answer I wanted: "After letting us wait outside the city for so long, you finally made up your mind to have a good discussion with us?"
"To be precise, a unified voice has not been formed within the principality." Pamir shook his head and replied: "Even now, I have just woken up, and I don't know much about the opinions of other parliamentarians. The reason why I am anxious Inviting Your Highness here is just to express my stance to you."
"I am very happy that you can trust my invitation." Having said this, he pointed in the direction of the window: "In the name of the Speaker of the Principality, I guarantee that the Empire's investigation team will receive support from the highest authority of our Principality in the coming time. As a courtesy, I will also discuss with you to resolve the conflict between the two countries after resolving all internal problems."
"After everything is resolved?" Instead of continuing to follow the other person's rhythm, Reina seemed to have found the trouble in the other person's words: "Don't say anything like 'you need us to help you solve the principality problem', you guys The problem is not one that our empire can easily intervene in."
After the tit-for-tat conversation, there was a moment of silence, and Pamir's wry smile also sounded in Duan Qing's ears: "Your Highness is worthy of being the first princess of the empire, and her eyes are as bright as sapphires - that's right. , relying solely on the rules of our principality and the existing resources at hand, we may not be able to eliminate possible internal threats."
"If you can prove that the people who attacked you have the same origin as the people who attacked our Imperial Investigation Team, we will take action without you reminding us." Reina's tone still did not relax at all: "As for who your MPs are. With such a stance, what kind of culpability do they need to bear... Are you sure we need our empire to be responsible?"
"In fact, we have released Vincent."
Having said this without hesitation, Pamir made a helpless gesture towards Lena, whose eyes changed: "From the perspective of the principality, Vincent's actions are absolutely unproblematic, Tani Most of the citizens of Asia even support his radical actions against the empire, and hope that this 'hero' who dares to stand up in the storm can continue to lead them to victory."
"From the perspective of the principality, this idea is understandable. After all, not everyone can distinguish between right and wrong. They will only look at it from their own standpoint." Pamir said in a relaxed tone. Stopping what Reina was about to retort: "As the Speaker of the Principality, I cannot deny this idea, but -"
"Perhaps we can use other more 'special' methods to solve all these problems."
He closed his mouth and looked at the face of Princess Reina across from him with blinking eyes. Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Empire, who was standing there with a graceful posture, also frowned and remained silent for a while, and then said indifferently. He spoke again: "I... understand."
"It seems that we still have a lot to talk about." She looked at the middle-aged man lying on the hospital bed with a smile quietly: "How about finding us a place first?"
"Originally, we planned to arrange it in the 'Audience Hall' in the central city, which is a place we specially use to receive foreign envoys." Pamir smiled and shook his head: "Because the central city was severely damaged, we can only arrange you in this place now. The 'Nobilit' pub on Tower Street."
"The best tavern in Tania's noble district, and one of the favorite taverns of Tania's nobles." Seeing the expression of Princess Reina looking back at him, Duan Qing touched his nose and replied with a bitter smile. Said: "In terms of the environment and service quality alone, it is indeed the most suitable place to entertain His Highness."
"Then let's do this for now."
Nodding her head, Reina turned around and walked in the direction she came from without politeness: "I hope the Speaker will recover soon, we don't have much time."
"We will send soldiers to guard around the Nobilit Tavern to prevent more misunderstandings." Pamir's voice then sounded from behind Reina: "There may be some chaos in the surrounding city area recently, and there may be some chaos in the surrounding area. Please be mentally prepared."
Without answering the other party's words, the figure of the woman dragging the gorgeous royal robe left the ward. Pamir, who didn't care about the arrogant attitude of the princess of the empire, then shook his head and laughed for a while, and then turned his attention to Duan who was about to shake his head and leave. On Qing and others: "Ah, by the way, there are you too."
"For your trust in me and your persistence until now, please allow me to express my gratitude to you." He nodded towards Duan Qing's back: "If there is a chance in the future -"
"I hope to make friends with you adventurers."
****************************
"To make friends?"
Some time later, in the northwest of Tania, in front of a tavern deep in the streets of Tal Street, a figure named Her Royal Highness Princess Lena then walked down the front of a convoy that spanned half the city. At the same time, Looking back at Duan Qing's face who had been waiting beside the motorcade for a long time: "Didn't you claim that you were very familiar with Pamir before? How could he say such a thing again?"
"Probably because he doesn't know me anymore. After all, he is a big shot." Looking at the countless imperial nobles and guards who were staring at him, Duan Qing smiled and said perfunctorily: "Including those who have come to this place. Those people I met when I was a kid, they don’t seem to have a deep impression of me now.”
"Forget it." After looking at Duan Qing for a while, Reina finally withdrew her suspicious gaze: "In short, the situation has become very complicated now, and we don't have much time to deal with more troubles."
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, we are an adventure group of the empire." Duan Qing lowered his head hurriedly: "Since we have been invited to become a member of the investigation team and have experienced so many things, we will never betray you at this time. own position."
"Very good." Nodding her head, Reina then took the lead and walked in the direction of the tavern in front of her: "Then answer my next question."
"Are you the magician that Pamir mentioned before who saved his life?"
The pace of forward movement did not stop, and the slightest breath of shock also rose around the body of the princess in front of her: "Encountered an assassination? Dying? I remember you reported this to me before."
"This, this, how do I know, hahahahaha." The footsteps were slightly delayed for a moment, and the dry smile on Duan Qing's face became more obvious: "It stands to reason that his injury cannot heal so quickly. Yes, it’s impossible to have the energy to overcome all obstacles to invite us——"
"The mysterious magician who has been following you before."
Stopping in front of the tavern where the crowd was being cleared and cleaned, Reina interrupted Duan Qing again: "Why isn't that person in your team now?"
"You are talking about her." Duan Qing scratched the back of his head: "I heard that many magic circle traces were left in Talan Village. They are cleaning up the mess now, so they haven't rushed over yet."
"Is it."
Lowering her head slightly, Princess Reina then waved her hand forward: "I hope you didn't deliberately use the condition of rescuing Pamir to force the relationship between us."
"No, it's nothing." Duan Qing wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and hurriedly raised his hands: "I, we don't even know the reason why Pamir woke up, how could we do this hahahaha …”
"Your Highness, the cleanup work has been completed." A low voice then sounded in the ears of the two people, accompanied by the figure of an imperial royal magician who stepped forward: "Please follow me. "
The princess did not continue to say too many words, glanced at Duan Qing, and then took the lead to walk towards the door of the tavern in front. A somewhat magnificent magic light was revealed in the gap of the door that was gradually pushed open, and with a The figures of the imperial nobles following Reina gradually merged together. Unconsciously being excluded from the team, Duan Qing, who shook his head and sighed, then led several teammates out of the streets outside the tavern. He flicked away a piece of fruit peel that had just been thrown on him by a civilian from a nearby principality. When he got to the side, he looked at each other with Xue Ling Huan Bing and others: "Okay, it seems that there is no need to go inside for the time being."
"We finally have some free time." He said to Gedman and Asahi Dongsheng at the same time: "If there are no other opinions, let's go to the Adventurers Association to log in first."
"What? Are you going to the Principality's Adventurers Association?" Asahi Dongsheng took the lead in launching his own objection: "We are an adventure group of the Empire, why should we be controlled by the Principality's Adventurers Association?"
"The Adventurers Association does not respect national boundaries. It is a neutral organization like the Council of Mages." Duan Qing looked at the other party with squinting eyes: "Don't be led astray by what Amman did in Redcar. Every place has The Adventurers Association's style of conduct and association resources are all linked to the local city."
"Since we are going to launch operations in Tania, we must rely on the power of the Adventurers Association." Snow Spirit Huanbing on the side also nodded his head: "And-"
“We still have a lot of our own issues to prioritize.”
Pointing to her feet, she looked around at the others present with a serious face: "For example, the calculation of the battle losses this time, and the next action plan based on the intelligence we have obtained."
"Speaking of which, those underground guys haven't shown up yet." After rubbing his chin, Asahi Dongsheng's expression began to become weird: "I don't believe that a big flood can wipe out all the people. Clean up all the hatred.”
"Let's not talk about Free Flying Group and others. The group of people in Tingyu Tower alone are already a big problem." Xue Ling Huan Bing also nodded as if in agreement: "And there are also the Templar Knights and others..."
"Two days have passed. Both recovery and integration should be over." On the way to the Adventurers Association in his memory, Duan Qing then analyzed in a low voice: "If there is any plan, at this time It should be almost out by now.”
"How about we go ask the people in Jianghu?" He suggested to the others: "Such a big guild should have some knowledge of the actions of people like Ting Yulou, plus that They were also among the participants in the one-night battle at the South Gate——"
Shadowy scenes then appeared in the streets and alleys, slowly extinguishing the conversation between several people. Duan Qing, who had retracted his expression and movements, also turned his serious eyes to the front. Those who were gradually surrounding him On the encirclement coming over: "...It seems that it is no longer necessary."
"People have already come to the door themselves."
