"All the armaments of the empire are currently affected to a certain extent, and the magic reserves are even more affected. We need to solve the problem of the earth line impact caused by Tania now, otherwise... the magic balance of the entire continent is said Maybe they will all be broken!”
"What we are discussing now is not the incident the night before yesterday, but the previous crimes committed by you and the empire behind you. Your Excellency, Princess, you will not forget this, right?"
"I think there is no need to discuss this point. After all, the internal strife in your country has become a fact. Our prince must have become a victim of your conspiracies-"
"Nonsense! The crimes committed by Chris are known to everyone! And they are unanimously recognized by all the people in the principality! Do you want to use your family's words to re-speak black as white!"
"……well."
Time was slowly passing as the debate in front of him continued, which also made Duan Qing, who was witnessing the debate, let out a helpless sigh. He looked in front of Princess Reina who was sitting in the center of the parliament hall. His Highness curled his lips in the direction where he was, then turned to Xue Ling Huan Bing and said, "Did we misunderstand something?"
"Are you referring to the fact that Her Royal Highness the Princess is not good at negotiating?" Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was standing aside with her arms folded, put on a funny expression and then turned her attention to the night outside the hall. Above the Sky: "This is not her problem. All Imperial people are like this, especially when they face people from the Principality in public."
"It turns out that when Her Royal Highness the Princess entrusted us to act as envoys, she had her own self-awareness." Duan Qing put on a look of sudden realization and hit his fist on the center of the palm of the other side: "I I thought she was a representative of wisdom, a wise person who saw that we could solve this problem in a unique way."
"To a certain extent, our solution does have some unique meaning." Turning to look at Black Corn who was being held in the center of the council hall and the two magicians from the Wizards Council who were responsible for guarding him, Xue Linghuan Bing replied calmly: "If it weren't for our nonsense -"
“We don’t know what will become of Tania’s yet.”
The ever-changing quarrel paused for a moment as her voice fell. It seemed that the argument in the venue was temporarily stopped due to some unexpected occurrence. The center of the seats representing the principality side also stood. A certain man appeared, waving his hands to indicate to the others: "Okay, okay, we've almost finished arguing."
"Since we still have time, how about we take a short break?"
Without waiting for other people to react, or waiting for the opposite imperial camp to issue words of agreement or objection, the middle-aged man then just walked aside and met countless players and Tani who were also watching around him. The figures of the sub-citizens gradually merged together. Pushing his body hard, Duan Qing then struggled to get his body out of the crowd of onlookers who were gradually becoming confused. He looked back at the people from the imperial camp behind him who were communicating with others. The person turned around and leaned his body against the pillars outside the parliament hall: "What a rare event."
"If there weren't so many people watching, I would agree with what you said." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who also retreated here, also smiled: "It's a pity that the people who came to watch the excitement are really... There are too many people, and this feeling of being crowded is not a good experience.”
"After all, something like this just happened in Tania, and it is normal for people to gather." Duan Qing looked up to the sky and sighed: "They chose to start negotiations at this time, and they must have taken this factor into consideration. "
"Forget it about Reina, would Pamir be so kind?" Xue Ling Huan Bing folded her arms and asked in a low voice: "Look at these wolf-like players, they want the farce here to get bigger. A little, so that I can take advantage of the opportunity."
"Are you worried that they will take advantage of the principality's loopholes? You are obviously worried that they will accidentally discover those underground properties." Duan Qing replied with a funny face: "Those things are the treasures of the Fleur royal family, and they also bring There are many mechanisms that cannot be passed, but if someone discovers the secret there, they will not care about it."
"If we want to move all the treasures that have gone through the long river of time, we may need more time." Xueling Huanbing replied in a low voice: "We still have manpower. If we don't have a large number of people, we want to move all those things." It’s also very difficult to move out.”
"Is this one of the reasons why you want to rescue the Fool?" Duan Qing looked at the other party with sideways eyes: "You want to use their power?"
"As far as I know, even after the Sky City incident is over, Mengzhu and the others still have influence on Tania." After thinking deeply for a while with a frown, Xueling Huanbing then replied in a low voice. : "They are also the most suitable people to take over this matter. Not only do they have the smoothest relationships, but they also know a lot of information about the underground world..."
"You probably don't know about this yet." He interrupted the other party with a low voice, and Duan Qing's face became serious: "Because of the Chris incident, the relationship between the Fool and the underground world is no longer what it used to be. alright."
"Is the influence of this matter so great?" After thinking for a while with lowered brows, Xue Ling Huan Bing also sighed: "Are there other forces that are obstructing this?"
"Who knows, maybe they are the Restorers or other people from the Destiny Alliance." Pointing in the direction of the meeting place behind the two people, Duan Qing said with a heavy face: "But this is irrelevant now. It’s important, after all, this is the problem we are holding this grand event to solve. With the principality breaking out of the quagmire, and the intervention of the Mages Council, I believe they will definitely solve this trouble from the mess in front of them.”
"Are you right, Mr. Speaker?"
He turned his head and looked at the figure of a cloaked man who had walked behind the two of them with indifferent eyes. The face wrapped under the hood then slightly revealed a bit of his own complexion, and spoke with He looked admiringly at the faces of the two players in front of him who had seen through his whereabouts: "As expected, they are all experienced adventurers. They discovered me so quickly."
"From our point of view, your current outfit is really not up to standard." Duan Qing shook his head and did not move his eyes away from the middle-aged man in front of him: "It's just that the people nearby were preoccupied with other things and didn't pay much attention to the presence of a person like you, so they didn't notice anything suspicious about you."
"I thought the outfit Yang prepared for me would be very useful." Shaking his head and comparing himself with the players who were crowding and fighting next to him, Pamir also showed a relieved smile on his face: "The result After all, I still can’t compare with you adventurers.”
"This is not just a matter of dressing up or dressing up." After secretly exchanging glances with Xue Ling Huan Bing beside him, Duan Qing finally suppressed the question he wanted to blurt out: "Want to truly become a As an adventurer, the necessary temperament is essential. To put it in layman’s terms, that means you are not rustic enough.”
"As one of the top people in the Free Continent, your temperament cannot be concealed by a simple cloak." He pointed in the direction of Pamir, and then nodded his head: "What's more, for people like us who know you well - your aura has been under our observation since you left the negotiating table."
"Many people are just like us, keeping an eye on all your movements."
He pointed towards the night around the pillars, as if he could see through the night where countless players and citizens of the principality were crowded together. Pamir, who was pointed at by him, seemed to have the same feeling of being watched by countless people. The expression that he stared at consciously and pondered for a while also became indifferent: "I know that this gaze that everyone is paying attention to, this gaze seems to have become heavier and heavier in recent times. They all seemed to be waiting for my attitude, those few representative words of 'yes' or 'no'."
"So I rarely speak during this period." He raised his head again and looked at Duan Qing with a helpless look in his eyes: "This may have caused many misunderstandings. Please allow me to first express my gratitude to you. You apologize."
"Uh, I don't understand what you mean." He stretched out his hand and slowly retracted it, with a puzzled expression on Duan Qing's face: "What are you referring to?"
"As for the trouble Yang caused to you." Pamir replied nonchalantly: "He may have thought that I didn't care about your existence, so he allowed his subordinates to pursue you. Although the matter has passed, fortunately It has not caused too much harm, but things that should be explained clearly must be explained clearly to avoid causing more unnecessary misunderstandings.”
"I have taught him a deep lesson." He turned back and gestured in the direction of the parliament hall: "I think he has understood what I meant, and is now reflecting on it elsewhere. Your safety in Tania City in the future. You can also get a guarantee, so please feel free to stay here.”
"...It's not that serious."
Finally understanding what the other party was referring to, Duan Qing's voice became a little more relieved: "Enmity between adventurers is commonplace for us. This actually has nothing to do with your country's attitude. As long as the relationship can guarantee the fair treatment we should enjoy in Tania and the necessary safety guarantees when encountering danger, I think it should be enough."
"Don't worry, this is what we should do."
【Ding--】
[Pamir’s reputation has increased, and its current reputation is respect. 】
The long-lost system prompt sounded in Duan Qing's ears, and his stunned expression for a moment was interrupted by Pamir's slight bow and salute: "Not to mention that he is my savior, I will I will do my best to meet your needs.”
"..."
Somewhat unsure of how to deal with the attitude of the supreme leader of the principality in front of him, Duan Qing, who remained silent for a moment, finally said in a low voice what he originally planned to say: "I don't know what happened to the speaker who spent so much effort to meet with us. Why?"
"I just listened to the Empire's report."
Slowly raising his head, Pamir's expression became inexplicably serious: "According to the 'report' they received, Tania's surge of energy that night was actually the magic in the underground area. The furnace went berserk for some reason, and there are several forces at work in it, including a person dressed very much like me."
"You accuse us based on this, because we directed and staged the disaster that night." He stared at the faces of Duan Qing and Duan Qing with solemn eyes, and at the same time briefly summarized everything that just happened on the negotiation table in the parliament hall: " These descriptions should also be provided by you, right?"
"Yes, all this is true." Duan Qing lowered his head slightly, and then put on the same serious expression: "But I also saw you being assassinated with my own eyes, so I can know who appeared underground You in the area should be fake.”
"I'm glad that you can provide all this truthfully." He nodded with a smile, and Pamir's eyes softened a little: "Your generosity and honesty saved the relationship between the two countries, and even more... It saved the future of this continent.”
"It doesn't need to be so serious, we are also doing it for ourselves." Xueling Huanbing on the side then shook his head and said softly: "Including now - in order to solve our previous demands and current troubles, your presence is also necessary. Woolen cloth."
"Her Royal Highness Princess Rena must have always been certain that we will accept your request for this reason." Pamir nodded his head, and then Pamir's voice became deeper: "I understand. I will convince the other MPs to accept the conditions she proposes."
"Wait, wait a minute, why don't we know what the conditions are-"
Finally realizing something was wrong, Duan Qing raised his hand in confusion, but Pamir, who kept his head down, did not give him such a chance. Instead, he interrupted Hui with a more sincere voice. The magician said: "But before that, I hope you two can accept my unkind invitation for my sake."
"Can you describe to me in more detail what happened that night?"
