The so-called council is actually an abbreviation used by the Master Council to call everyone to a meeting to discuss important matters. However, because it has been circulated for too long, the original name of this meeting is still lost in the past history of the Master Council. . As the command center of the Mage Council, this kind of council is often issued and convened by the Council of Seven. Unless there are special circumstances, all magicians affiliated with the Mage Council will put down their work and research at this time and join the Seven-person Council. They gathered together at a place appointed by the people's council.
Because the number of magicians in the past was very small, this kind of impromptu meeting was often relatively simple and fast. However, today, nearly a thousand years have passed, and we want to gather all the magicians in a short time. Together it has become an extremely huge project.
"It turns out that the discussion that the old guy mentioned just now was referring to this kind of thing."
Walking on the road leading to the center of the Sky City, the magician named Linyuan Duanshui sighed softly. While he looked around the city, he thought about what he had just said with Wei Jin. Si's conversation process: "I originally thought it was just a casual conversation, but I didn't expect that such a big battle would arise so quickly..."
"Major matters in the Council of Mages are often resolved in this way." The waving hands seemed relaxed and satisfactory. Qian Zhihe, who was following behind, replied excitedly: "I just didn't expect Wiggins." The president was so quick, he immediately started convening the meeting as soon as he finished talking."
"That old man has always been so nimble." Duan Qing replied expressionlessly: "And even if you want to do such a thing, you must have the ability to do such a thing."
"Lord Wiggins is highly respected in the Council of Mages. Everyone knows how great this old man is." Qian Zhihe put his hands on his back and his eyes were full of yearning: "Although the player base has not had much contact with this mage. The most powerful magician in the council, but the older generation of the magician council who has become the player’s magician mentor have never stopped praising this old man.”
"But you've seen the result." Pointing in the direction in which the two people came, Duan Qing's muscles on his face tightened a bit: "That old guy is just a bad old man who likes to be unreasonable. "
"That, that's because of you, Brother Qingshan." She waved her hands slightly uneasily, and the red-haired girl's expression then became more exciting: "The magic energy that escaped when his spirit fluctuated just now was so terrifying. , even the entire space seems to be oscillating, and you also said, you also said-"
"What about the splitting of his soul?" Duan Qing, who paused for a moment, replied with the corner of his mouth raised: "Everyone in this Mage Council should know the situation of their speaker, right? And this magic training theory is also This is the knowledge that every magician should know."
"I, can't I just study fire magic?" the girl said angrily, and her head immediately sank like a deflated balloon: "And I have been studying magic theory before, and I have no idea about the internal structure and situation of the Mages Council. How do you know?"
"The internal situation of the Mages Council."
Following Qian Zhihe's words, Duan Qing's eyes fell around the street. Duan Qing began to pay attention to the magicians who were walking on the street with the two of them. He seemed not to notice these two. The players were also wearing magic robes of various colors and styles at this time, and their faces, whether relaxed or serious, all had a sense of fatigue. Three or two magicians traveling together also flew through the sky where they were at this time, leaving only the faint sound of air screams and magic fluctuations, and the moving black spots appearing in the sky were also like As if they had agreed long ago, they gathered together in the open space where the square was vaguely visible in front of them: "Hasn't such a large gathering been held before?"
"Yes, it should have been done before." Qian Zhihe replied with a slight hesitation: "Maybe it was because I was not qualified enough at the time, so I did not accept the invitation from the Mages Council."
"I, a magician who has not yet registered in the Mages Council, have been invited. Are you still qualified at that time?"
"That's because I happen to be here!" He said angrily to Duan Qing, who looked matter-of-fact. Qianzhihe then raised his cute eyebrows: "They didn't formally invite you, just because the two of us You just happened to be standing together, so he just invited you over! You must know that our player group's status in the Mage Council is very low. Ordinary magicians can get privileges easily, but we players have to use thousands of It takes twice as much effort to——”
Her voice gradually stopped, and her eyes froze in front of the square in front of them as the two people walked out of the street. Several players-like figures who also walked out of that direction were also at this time. With an overjoyed expression, the scene of holding hands with several other magicians who were about to enter the square was shown in front of the two people: "...talent...talent...hum!"
"It seems like it doesn't require a thousand times more effort."
Unable to help but laugh twice, Duan Qing's pointing finger pointed away from the somewhat depressed red-haired girl: "It's just because some people are not good at using negotiation and win-over methods, so We just ignored the development in this area.”
"I am a single player, so there is no comparison at all." The girl pursed her lips and muttered unwillingly: "No matter how hard I manage, my influence will definitely not be as good as the influence of the entire Wizard. It’s so powerful.”
"That's not necessarily true." He shook his head and interrupted the other party's words. Duan Qing then took the lead and walked forward: "If it is an ordinary society where social relationships are paramount, a person may not be able to do anything, but -"
"This is a free world, and the magicians in the free world put their strength first."
He stepped forward and passed by a group of magicians who also walked through the square. Then, when he was about to cross the entrance to another square, he greeted the players stationed there. Greeting: "Hello."
"……Who are you?"
The expression that was chatting and laughing with the person next to him stopped for a moment, and Rui Rigu Yan, who was called by Duan Qing, turned his eyes slightly doubtfully: "Which one is good - which adventure group?"
"I followed her here." Pointing to Qian Zhihe who had just caught up with him behind him, the smile on Duan Qing's face gradually became formulaic: "My name is Linyuan Duanshui, nice to meet you. "
"It's you." His eyes stayed in the direction Duan Qing was pointing for a moment, and Rui Riguyan's expression gradually became much colder: "Why, if you don't continue to dedicate yourself in Tania City, you actually have the time to come here. coming?"
"Dedicate yourself?" His face quickly lost the warmth he had when treating Duan Qing. Qian Zhihe's voice when he answered was also full of tit-for-tat coldness: "Follow the arrangements of the Council of Mages and do your best to repair Tania's earth line. Isn’t that what we should do with our own strength?”
"As a famous person in the Council of Mages, he actually has such a spirit of dedication. It's really admirable." He crossed his arms and tilted his face. There was no hint of praise in Luo Riguyan's tone and expression: " No wonder so many people like you, have you continued to be favored by the Great Magician of Split recently?"
"The Great Magician of Split will only have unclear relationships with those young and beautiful female magicians in your guild. Don't confuse them with me." The cold face was because of what the other party mentioned. The name tightened even more, and Qian Zhihe seemed to taunt with a voice that was deep in his throat: "It's you - have you completed your previous mission of helping Ms. Herm find the lost magic stone?"
"As a long-established adventure group based in the Mage Council, it has taken so long to complete the task. Doesn't it damage the image of your association?"
She paused her hand downwards, and the handle of the red lotus staff that appeared in her hand at some point also slammed heavily on the ground. The invisible momentum then caused the surrounding air to become hot, including several players. Everyone in Wizard, including the magician, pressed back a bit. In the scene where the surrounding magicians were avoiding each other, the face of the red robe of the setting sun was becoming more and more ugly, and then another calm voice sounded next to Duan Qing. Behind him, accompanied by a young figure wearing a blue exquisite magic robe, walked from not far away: "The matter of the missing magic gem of Ms. Herm has been handed over to our Wind Wind Adventure Group to handle. A month ago, manpower was sent out to search for the whereabouts of those goods."
"The official results have been obtained now." A proud smile appeared on his face, and at the same time he stretched out his hand to gesture to the several players-looking people standing not far behind him and the large wooden boxes beside them. He said: "We can complete this entrustment now."
"Sure enough." Feeling familiar with the large boxes in his sight, Qian Zhihe turned around and gritted his teeth and whispered: "When I saw those things, I had a bad feeling. ...You have violated the rules of the Adventurers Association!"
The last words she shouted leisurely to the headwind who came forward. The young magician wearing a blue magic robe also showed a disdainful smile on his face, and the words that appeared on his hands The ice blue magic ball then slowly rotated around him: "Adventurers Association? Maybe, but this is the City in the Sky, the headquarters of the Council of Mages."
"Everything must be done according to the rules of the Mages Council, right?"
He closed his twitching corners of his mouth, and then nodded generously towards the setting sun Guyan not far away. The players who were not following him also disappeared as he turned and left. On one side of the square, he took the large wooden boxes and lifted them to the inside of the door above the steps on the opposite side. Looking at the familiar scenery that had appeared in front of him from a distance, Duan Qing, who had his hands behind his back, let out a funny look on his face. He bit the bullet and ignored those who were still looking at him. The gazes of the magicians on his body, and then the last taunting voice of Lueyi Guyan came to his ears: "We have no intention of robbing your business, dear Miss Qian Zhihe, but the Sky City is currently full of missions. , but you only have one person left. Even if we watch those jobs disappear, the people in the Mage Council will not agree."
"...Then I can only congratulate you."
"It's not our fault that there are so many people. After all, every region has places that need people."
The victorious expression appeared on the strong man in red robe. Luo Rigu Yan then cast his last attentive glance in the direction of Duan Qing: "Of course, if possible, we also hope to cooperate with the Red Lotus Magician. , after all, you still have many resources on hand that ordinary people can’t imagine, and it should be a better choice to develop together with more powerful teammates.”
"Instead of enclosing one's own territory and looking for people like this who don't seem to have much strength."
Duan Qing withdrew his gaze from Duan Qing, and he led the other players in Wizard to pass in front of the two of them. One of the players even left a more obvious cry when passing by Qian Zhihe. The sneer made the red-haired girl's whole body trembling more obvious: "What, what! I'm so angry!"
"What about Ms. Herm's mission... did they take it away from you?"
Accurately finding the information revealed in the series of conversations just now, Duan Qing shook his head and asked this sentence in a low voice. After a while, Qianzhihe, who pursed his lips tightly, calmed down his constant ups and downs with continuous deep breaths. On the chest, the originally angry expression had become much calmer at this time: "That's nothing, just give it to them, but they actually look down on you, big brother... Huh, this debt will have to be settled sooner or later. of."
"Okay, okay, let's go in quickly." Duan Qing, who could clearly feel the girl's obviously mature temperament and the fact that she was always caring about her own mood, could only reply helplessly after being silent for a moment: "I used to I have never seen the scene behind that door. Is that the road leading to the Hall of Emerald?"
"Yes, it is."
After re-energizing himself, Qian Zhihe's face once again revealed the innocence and enthusiasm he had shown when he had always been by Duan Qing's side: "Let me lead the way, I am the best guide here! Listen to me, that hall is beautiful—"
"Hey, isn't this little sister Qian Zhihe?"
The words full of laziness and frivolity then sounded behind the two people, stopping the red-haired girl from moving forward again in mid-air. Her face was a little stiff, and then she slowly turned her head back. Together with Duan Qing, they caught a certain man with disheveled beard and hair who looked like a homeless man.
