"What the hell? Are you just leaving like this?"
Facing the back of Mengzhu who disappeared without a trace, Duan Qing could only smile bitterly and shake his head helplessly. However, his own steps to leave were stopped by the onlookers who were still gathering. He would not give up. His expression was like a solid wall blocking Duan Qing's face: "Even if you don't plan to take responsibility, you should still give us an explanation, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense! What am I going to tell you! She has to be timid. How can you force her back?"
"You still need to ask? Of course we have objections! We finally had fun for once... ah no, we finally had the opportunity to witness the battle of the Sky-Breaking Blade. Is it just like this?"
"It's not like I asked you to gather here to watch. You all insist on gathering here to watch. There will definitely be various surprises in informal performances. You insist on me, a solo performer who can't sing, to explain it. I I can't even explain it - what do you think I'm doing? Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible! I can't handle so many of you, do you want to tire me out? Today's duel is over!"
"If you want a chance to play against me, go to Tania and sign up."
Casually dismissing the players who were still coming incessantly, Duan Qing squeezed out of the crowd of onlookers with a dark face, and then fled as if fleeing from the desert under the eager eyes of Phoenix Skywatch and Mephisto. that place. The sound of howling wind coming from the grasslands beyond the sacred mountain became more and more obvious as the border was crossed. There were even clanging sounds such as the sound of gravel and rubble being blown up and then falling to the ground and hitting metal, because they were desperate to choose their way. Duan Qing, who walked out of the border of the temporary camp, then appeared in a corner of these apocalyptic wastelands, wandering casually between the wilderness strewn with countless metal ruins and the elemental isolation generator inserted upside down: "... Phew, fortunately only... I owe two people debts, otherwise the situation will be really difficult to deal with."
"The current situation is not easy to deal with, unless you never show up in front of them again." Then Violet's mature voice came to the ears of the man in gray: "Of course, we will go to Tania next. Scheduling is a good reason for you if you have fewer 'passionate fans' there than here."
"That's impossible. At least most of the adventurers here are still under the jurisdiction and regulation of the guild alliance." Duan watched a few sparse adventure team figures in the distance constantly shuttle through the metal ruins. Qing replied in a low voice: "In Tania, everything is really out of control. Not to mention the mixed forces of light and darkness, there are probably as many people who want to assassinate me as many as a grassland. .”
"Your supporters will be as strong as the wind on the grassland. At least I will stand behind you." The voice echoing in the ears became gentle and graceful, but Violet's tone sounded again with a hint of emotion. A bit teasingly: "Of course."
"First of all, you have to completely deal with the stall here."
Following her reminder, Duan Qing, who stepped onto the huge metal support, gradually stood at the top of one of the countless abandoned wastelands on the hillside. He barely held his hood down against the strong wind and then looked towards it. In the distance, there is the huge land mass that has stayed there since the previous battle. Because they had long known that the huge land belonged to the Hulun tribe, the attitudes of the members of the various prairie tribes who had been sent there to guard it since the war also seemed much calmer. The sparse figures around the continental mass also seemed particularly small in Duan Qing's eyes at this time, looking like ants moving in an orderly manner around the feet of an elephant: "...There is no new movement now, right?"
"No! Are you here to change shifts?"
"Yes, Kirg of the Nak tribe, following the will of the divine envoy, came with my tribe."
"I know you. Your names have been spread around the sacred mountain. I heard that you, like Surtu, come from the north of the grassland... What, have you also dealt with this Hulun tribe?"
"The Hulun people have dealt with countless tribes, large and small, along the way, although they never left a good reputation in the end."
Walking on the road to the bottom of the hillside, the voice belonging to Fulla sounded in Duan Qing's ears like the content of the exchanges between tribes: "Come to visit the divine envoy - visit Violet's converted human being." They have also mentioned many times that they have complained to me about the many atrocities committed by the Hulun people on the grasslands. Because the authenticity cannot be judged, I cannot give them a reply."
"You just ignored them, right?" Looking at Fula's expressionless look, Duan Qing smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "It's hard for you to serve my mentor all the time and have to face these so-called ordinary people all the time. People are noisy, but there are no complaints after all this time.”
"Compared to what you are busy with, the responsibilities I have been assigned are nothing. I hope you can still regard me as your companion and a member of the adventurers, and do not treat me differently." The long blond hair followed. Flowing in the air as she walked down the mountain, Fula turned to Duan Qing and pointed to her chest: "Let's continue talking about the Hulun people - I did a little research on their past and actions on the grassland. This tribe seems to have stopped abiding by the conventional rules of human society a long time ago."
"Using the words you are used to describing - they don't like obedient people." Speaking of this, the dragon lady pointed to the huge land mass in the distance that stood out on the flat sea of green grass: "It's like standing on this piece of land. The abrupt rocks on the grassland, the cranes standing above the chickens.”
"Want to challenge the rule of the Holy Mountain."
Duan Qing, who nodded his head and stopped, pointed in the same direction in the distance and responded in a low voice: "Speaking of which, if we hadn't appeared, the Hulun tribe might have already reached the sacred mountain. , they also seem to have the capital to challenge."
"We still can't fully understand the purpose of this tribe. Of course, the same is true of the 'moving huge land' technology they use." Fula returned her gaze to Duan Qing: "According to your description, they are in your The last time we faced the beast tide, they used powerful energy weapons. If they have the technology to convert it into power, the power problem may be explained."
"Speaking of which, during the time we stayed in the Hulun tribe, we also saw some huge windmills." Duan Qing stroked his chin and sighed in a low voice: "Those huge windmills also emit noise when resisting the attack of the beast tide. Devices with huge energy rays, so they can be considered the source of energy... Well, it is obviously more appropriate to ask Naxia for this kind of thing, she was once one of the senior members of the Hulun tribe."
"Yes, that human should have the knowledge of the Hulun tribe." Fula also sighed: "What a pity."
Nasia's personality has rarely appeared in Violet, and naturally she has never had successful communication with Duan Qing and others after that "Guardian of the Sky". In Violet's own words , it is already a miracle that this human woman with a weak body and strong spirit can continue to survive in this form. In the following period of time, the Lord of Violet who resided in her body seemed to have asked her some questions about her past, but judging from Violet's own feedback, she seemed to be rarely willing to mention it. And about her and the Hulun people: "In my memory, Naxia seems to have been called a 'saint', which is a rare title on the grassland."
"She herself seems unwilling to admit it, or denies it for some reason... Alas, only the Hulun people probably know the story behind it."
"Why don't we take this opportunity to ask the Hulun people?"
"They definitely don't want to admit it, otherwise they wouldn't have left without saying a word when 'Velcia' left, and -"
Once again crossing the ancient metal rod of the elemental isolation generator, Duan Qing pointed to the land plate and whispered: "The problems that exist in the tribe that we need to solve have never belonged to this Miss Naxia."
Also tired of the slow pace of walking, Fula's figure then appeared next to Duan Qing. Jumping into the air with great strength, she also lifted the gray-robed magician's body like a chicken. Lifting it up, a high arc was drawn in the sky above the sacred mountain. Gradually breaking through the envelope of the elemental isolation circle, the violent wind surrounding the sacred mountain also transformed from the previous sound into substance. However, before these winds were about to transform into wind pressure, the two figures had already turned into light transmitted through space and disappeared in an instant. : "——Hello."
The familiar tent clusters in his memory became clear all around, and the green grassland that should have been close now also became far away due to the huge gap. Duan Qing, who landed on the ground, then faced countless people who had already prepared in front of him. The Hulun people here raised their hands high: "We meet again, friends."
"Master God Envoy, you don't have to be so polite." Hu Mobei, who had pushed aside the crowd and walked to the front, calmed down the commotion around him, then appeared in a familiar appearance in Duan Qing's memory: "If you can facilitate this meeting, God Envoy Your Excellency must have put in a lot of effort."
"After all, the reputation of nobles among other grassland tribes is not very good, so it is inevitable for others to be a little cautious." Duan Qing pointed at the other grassland tribe warriors who were still patrolling under the cliff behind him, and the corners of his mouth were crooked. He replied: "We play... ahem, the attitude of us adventurers is a little different. We maintain an open attitude towards all forces. As long as there is room for discussion, we will not refuse easily."
"Your Majesty God is so tolerant."
Still maintaining his neither humble nor arrogant appearance, Hu Mobei, who had dismissed the surrounding guards, turned his attention to Duan Qing's side: "Who is this...?"
"You should know one of the members of our adventure group." Duan Qing nodded his head and asked pretending to be thoughtful: "Have you never met before? It's strange. We were in the Hulun tribe before. During the event..."
"Perhaps it's because too much time has passed." Hu Mobei explained to Duan Qing instead, a smile appeared on Hu Mobei's youthful face: "And this lady seems to be very powerful. "
"Without her, I wouldn't have the ability to teleport here directly." Duan Qing smiled bitterly and introduced Fula in a low voice: "And this is one of the elders of the Hulun tribe... um, where are the other elders?"
"They have other priorities."
Shaking his head, Hu Mobei wiped his nose to hide his expression: "Of course, this is not disrespectful to the divine envoy, it's just that because of the things that happened before, they were a little shy about meeting the divine envoy. "
"Understood, it seems that it is very hard for you to appear here this time." Duan Qing smiled and took two steps forward: "It doesn't matter, as long as you can answer our questions on behalf of the Hulun people."
"Let's talk somewhere else." Humobei gestured behind him and bowed respectfully: "Please."
"Well, if there is still a banquet to entertain, it is really unnecessary. After all, we have many other things to do." Countless pairs of vigilant eyes from the crowd who appeared behind the road that the other party gave way collided with each other. , Duan Qing curled his lips and did not take a step forward: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Ahem."
As if he was trying hard to decide how to speak, Hu Mobei, who was wearing a fur coat, cleared his throat: "... This request for a meeting is a decision made jointly by our elders. After all, it is not only related to The survival of our Hulun people is also related to the future of our Hulun people."
"Yes, it is difficult for us Hulun people to survive now." Facing the scrutinizing looks from Duan Qing and Fula at the same time, Humobei paused for a moment but lowered his voice and admitted: "The long-term isolated march, Relations with many other tribes have been severed... Our tribe’s previous reserves of food are no longer much, and without hunting and other means of maintenance, many tribesmen will starve.”
"Even the Hulun tribe, which even the Zhuangsi tribe dare not take advantage of, will fall on their own stomachs in the end." Duan Qing put on a sighing expression: "There is no problem with this, we take the risk You can use various means to provide a large amount of supplies, including food, as long as you can afford the appropriate remuneration."
"We can provide enough remuneration, and you will definitely be satisfied." Hu Mobei nodded happily, and then his expression dimmed again: "As for the other hand...the question about our future is also a question. The problem that needs to be solved urgently, after all, the fact that we are here in this way is largely due to the decision of our clan leader.”
"But our clan leader has not shown his face to us for a long time."
