"They released a new video?"
"That's right, this time it was Snow Spirit Huan Bing herself, but the location was changed to Eta County. As for the content of the video - she openly robbed a BOSS that other guilds were attacking, and also besieged the players who were attacking the BOSS. The team was wiped out together.”
"Oh? She can actually do this kind of thing of leading evil people? Isn't she afraid of being denounced?"
"That's right, so the waves caused by this challenge are much bigger than those in the past, and even exceeded the number of clicks when Jian Beidong made a big fuss in the Sky City last time. However, we did not lose nothing. Because the guild whose boss was robbed and whose members were also killed seems to be our subordinate guild... This, we are verifying this matter now! Please don't be angry yet!"
The magical image sent by Xue Ling Huan Bing soon appeared on the outside world's Internet. The video production method that should have been focused on was quickly transferred to the content of the video itself. With the heroic appearance of Yidudu The back-like figure and the countless bloody storms caused by a white bone sword also occupy the main perspective of this image, showing the unparalleled hard power of this white-haired female swordsman in a mind-numbing way. After carefully reading the video several times, the smile that had always been on the face of the head of the Duan family, who was sitting in the luxurious bedroom, gradually disappeared. With an unkind look on his face, he casually threw the communication ball in his hand. On the other hand, he turned around and got into his game cabin: "——Have you found the video source?"
"We found it. The other party seems to be an innocent person who has been hacked into the terminal. It seems that our opponent is also very proficient in hacking. This road will not be so easy to get through."
"You haven't found any results about the other party's hiding place yet?"
The boundless darkness appeared in front of Duan Qingnian after entering the game world. What he saw when he raised his head was the endless spiraling stairs and the stone doors of countless rooms arranged side by side around each section of the tower. As he looked at all this, he also began to look at it. The current situation of the Tower of Lun was temporarily forgotten, and he continued to speak to the subordinates in front of him in a questioning tone: "We have sent out so many people, but in the end we found nothing? Don't let me use the word 'incompetent' How can I describe you in two words?"
"Relying on large and small gangs and local snakes, we have checked all the hiding places." One of the subordinates lowered his head again and reported: "According to the alliance prosecutors who cooperated with us, the remaining There are only so many places.”
"...The institute?"
Taking a deep breath, the expression on the frowning Duan Qingnian's face became more and more serious: "Those greedy old guys asked them to put pressure on the Lou family, but so far they haven't had much effect. A bunch of rubbish!"
"Lou Yushang has already escaped from the family's control after the incident three years ago. The people who are following her now are also her confidants. If she only puts pressure on the Lou family, her The influence is really very limited.”
"So this is that person's plan? Take advantage of Lou Yushang's current special status to avoid all possible problems." After grinding his teeth for a long time, Duan Qingnian, with his hands behind his back, began to walk towards the top of the spiral staircase. Go: "Where is Xu Liangyu? Where is Xu Liangyu?"
"Didn't that guy guarantee that he could solve this 'little problem'? Why is there no result yet!"
The roar echoed inside the tall and empty Tyran Tower, as if it wanted to completely drive away the darkness that filled the void. The swordsman in blue shirt who was supposed to bear this anger was now free to do so. Zaidi sat with his legs crossed, hiding in a dark room where he couldn't see anything clearly: "——Ha, I know, I know, don't keep urging me."
"And what's the use of urging these things? From my point of view, these are not the key to breaking the situation at all." Shaking his head, the swordsman in green looked helpless and casually looked at the parchment that had just appeared in his hand. Throwing it aside: "That man took the initiative to send himself to the Free Continent and made so much noise. He must be trying to attract our attention or divert our attention from the sacred mountain... Hey, the sacred mountain How's the progress over there?"
"According to the progress we observed, they are still under construction." The frivolous voice immediately echoed in the dark space, but there was no one at the source of the voice, only a magic gem emitting green light strangely. Flashing there: "The current construction progress is still very slow, and we have not observed any trace of the man. There is a high probability that he really ran away."
"That is to say, a series of rumors that happened here recently are true." The relaxed look on Liangchen Meiyu's face gradually faded away: "The Free City, Tania, and the ancient forest—— Huh, this guy’s trajectory is really interesting.”
"Can anyone guess what that guy wants to do now?" He raised his grinding voice again, and his eyes scanned the other people in the room: "He, and those who don't know how to spread the word... Images of unknown meaning to the outside world——"
"You are still intimidated by each other's name. This matter is definitely not as complicated as you think." Another red gem standing in the corner of the room then flashed and made a rough and hoarse voice: " In my opinion, no matter what kind of plans they are making, as long as we can go straight to the nest, any conspiracy and calculation will be shattered!"
"So you still advocate attacking the opponent's lair directly?" Liangchen Meiyu, who was half lying on the ground, raised her eyebrows and asked lowly: "Although I didn't contribute much, the battle on the sacred mountain ended with our defeat. To conclude, let’s bring up the matter of offense again—well.”
"Do you mean... a sneak attack...?"
Noticing another parchment roll that suddenly appeared in his hand, Liangchen Meiyu, who was still talking, became slower and slower. He slowly opened the newly acquired parchment roll little by little, and then looked above. The text that appeared took a deep breath: "...Tsk."
"It seems they are still making more noise."
The words that appeared in the eyes of the blue-shirted swordsman described a sneak attack that had just occurred within the area under their jurisdiction. The members of the Wings of Freedom stationed in the Anderson Independent State and affiliated with the Magic Empire seemed to have been attacked a moment ago. They were attacked by unknown persons, and they went back to the main site to report without even seeing their names and identities. In the background sound of more and more players becoming alert and running towards the accident site, the figures belonging to Duan Qing and Fula also disappeared early near the edge of the basin and barren land. The robed magician held up the transparent light-shielding shield and watched one player after another passing by his position. His low voice of explanation did not stop during this period: "...I told you not to do anything easily. , even if we break their necks without making a sound, our whereabouts will still be exposed."
"You adventurers are really using more and more strange methods... If we don't take action, how are we going to get in?"
"Even if the teleportation spell is disabled, we still have many ways to get in. Look at the light-shielding shields and invisibility potions we have now. Aren't they very good means of infiltration? Well, are you wrong about the concept of 'infiltration'? understanding?”
"From the Dragon Clan's point of view, we never need to be sneaky when we want to enter a place. We only need to report our names. If that doesn't work, we will use force to solve it... What is that look in your eyes? Is there any problem? "
"well."
Pressing his forehead and sighing, Duan Qing then took back the steps he was just about to take: "I just exchanged some information with the outside world. In addition to Xue Ling Huan Bing, Jian Beidong and several others are also here. There is quite a commotion in various places, and now is our best chance to do something without alerting others."
"You can see Fenghua Town after climbing over the mountain range in front, which is the other side of the Emerald Forest that we visited before. It is also one of the core areas currently controlled by the Magic Empire. Lorna and her little apprentice once The place where you lived in seclusion—what happened?”
"You seem to be very familiar with that place." After saying this softly, Fula still stared at Duan Qing's face intently: "Is it your hometown? Or a place where you have lived for a long time?"
"No, it's just that for some reasons, I was very impressed there." Duan Qing lowered his tone again and gently lowered his head: "These unimportant issues are not ours. It should be considered now.”
"Follow me first."
Waving his hand forward, the gray-robed magician took the lead in taking steps again. More and more people began to shuttle between the dry swamps and the sea of trees as they advanced. From time to time, there were The magical mechanical sentries and magicians flying in the air passed over their heads: "Fortunately, we used the polarizing barrier synthesized by alchemy potion, otherwise we would have been exposed by so many magic detection methods by now. "
"Your whimsical ideas always surprise me, and I never thought that 'refraction' could be used in such a way." As if she didn't care about the unrelaxed scene around her, Fulla was confused. Face looked curiously around the shield held up by Duan Qing: "There are other creations, including the 'gun barrel' made by you adventurers... There seem to be many applications in them that even our dragon clan doesn't know about. Knowledge of love?”
"If I have the chance, I will tell you this knowledge and my ideas." Duan Qing, who carefully avoided a patrolling guard who just passed by him and shifted slightly to the left, was highly concentrated. Directly in front of him: "The spatial anchor can only be used after it is deployed, and it must be guaranteed not to be destroyed by others, so we'd better try not to be discovered by others - shush."
A loud whistling sound then came from far to near above Duan Qing's head, and a magician with a golden cloak and a face as cold as ancient stone flashed above Duan Qing's field of vision, leading a team of magicians. However, another group of players gradually appeared in front of Duan Qing and Fula. The leading figure of a certain big sword mad warrior also stopped swaggeringly at the old man on the other side of the swamp. In front of tree roots. The hustle and bustle of the search became a little more noisy with the arrival of two groups of people one day. Duan Qing, who noticed that the atmosphere was getting more tense, could not help but move a few steps outside. He carefully observed the trajectory of the surrounding search crowd. Changes and the behavior of these two groups of people, finally I remembered the identity of the player after distinguishing the name above the head of the berserker: "Half a box of cigarettes... I remember it was the general under the Wings of Freedom." Bar."
"Do you know that person?" Fulla also kept looking ahead at the player who was swaggeringly sitting on the tree roots and watching her men begin to search the area: "Is he also an old friend of yours?"
"Not really, because I'm not familiar with him." Restarting his stealth journey, Duan Qing replied in a subtle voice: "Ling Bing may be familiar with him, but that happened before, and now they are probably in a hostile relationship. ,but--"
"I didn't expect that this guy would still stay in the Wings of Freedom." Having said this, the gray-robed magician sighed again: "Did the new President of the Wings of Freedom promise him an offer he couldn't refuse? still--"
"Then do you know this person over here?"
Without questioning Duan Qing's unfinished words, Fulla calmly pointed to the other leader flying and circling above her head: "Who is he?"
"I'm even less familiar with this person, but he should be a member of the so-called Magic Empire who presides over the Magic Council." Noticing the obviously bald head of the magician leader shrouded in golden light, Duan Qing felt the The surging magical energy that is constantly emanating from the golden light: "His magical power is very high, at least a person of the level of a great magician... Uh, forget that you are not a human being. This level of magical power should not provoke It’s your nerves.”
"How long are we going to keep sneaking?"
Without answering Duan Qing's question, Fula expressed her attitude in a more direct way: "Although I was given some time last night, I still need to rest."
"Don't worry, we'll be there soon." Looking at the adventurer's map in his hand, Duan Qing continued to sway left and right to avoid the nearby crowds and magical creations: "At least arrange the anchor point at the foot of the mountain, so that if we If you want to go to Fenghua Town, you can also have a little distance advantage... Well, let's just go there."
In the light-shielding shield that no one noticed, the gray-robed magician silently pointed forward. Fula, who followed Duan Qing in pointing the direction, also looked in the direction of the roots of the tree where half a box of cigarettes was occupying, and then looked indifferent. He nodded: "That's right there, wait a moment, I'll kill him right away -"
"Stop, stop, stop!" Duan Qing hurriedly stopped the opponent's movement, and continued to explain in a lowered and anxious voice: "Have you seen the person behind him?"
"That's it."
