"The other party seems to be planning to stop practicing martial ethics."
Not long after, in Xifeng County, in a hidden corner deep in the Lesser Andachel Mountains, a middle-aged man who was arranging various battle plans also waved away a subordinate who was reporting just now and disdainfully put the weapon in his hand. The black sword was thrown aside: "Forget about the frontal harassment, you actually want to carry out a sneak attack from behind? And also launch a sneak attack from Freedom City?"
"They may think that they have an absolute advantage in terms of paper strength, so they can fight however they want, hehehehehe." Another scholar-looking player standing next to him also made a meaning at this time. A deep smile: "In the past, I might have been able to believe in this reality a little bit, but now -"
"Please forgive me for not being able to show you more. After all, putting all the force in front of you for everyone to see is a thankless task." The middle-aged man clapped his hands and looked extremely energetic. The black armor also reflected a breathtaking brilliance when he turned around: "I prefer to throw it directly on their heads."
"That's good." Following the other party's gesture, the scholar turned his head with a smile: "I hope they will be 'surprised' by then, just like I was when I saw all this."
Below, the scene of countless magicians flying across the sky is spreading towards the distant horizon with the continuous sound of breaking through the sky, and various colorful magical lights are also dragging dazzling lights in the air as they fly. The trajectory is sometimes mixed with white and black colors that are different from the four magic element systems. The uniform troops also stretched on the hillside below in the busy scene of intertwined magic flight trajectories, shouting slogans and marching slowly in the wilderness full of rugged rocks, seemingly no different from ordinary soldiers on the battlefield. The most dazzling thing about them at this time is not the various magic weapons in their hands, but the inlaid magic crystals that are exposed outside the armor from time to time and occasionally shine with colorful brilliance: "——Able to mass-produce to this level, it seems that you I can add one more thing to the board of directors’ report.”
"I plan to write it in together after we win the final war to make the report look more beautiful. After all, they don't know how powerful these crystallized armors are yet, hahahahaha."
"I thought that the successive setbacks in the past would make you, Mr. Duan, constrained and lose your confidence. It seems that I was overly worried."
Turning around with his hands behind his back, the player dressed as a scholar raised the bridge of his nose: "If it were me, with so many resources at my disposal to squander, watching the mischief of those young people would be like watching a clown show. It’s the same, it’s true that there is no interest at all.”
"If the head of the Chu family, who came here specially to watch, could say such a positive statement, it would be worthwhile for me to accompany him in person." The middle-aged man in black armor walked forward and looked down, showing a feeling of being happy to accept it. Waved his hand: "You must have heard of your father's activeness on the battlefield. He is an ace in our hands now."
"That unscrupulous man." He waved his hand angrily, and the scholar with his arms in front of him pretended to be angry, but did not reveal the slightest feeling of anger: "I heard that he just fought in a previous battle. After you die and come back, you will succeed more than you will fail."
"Master Chu, don't be humble. Your satisfaction is beyond words." The middle-aged man gave two clear smiles: "The previous encounters of Ming and Qing on the battlefield were just a simple accident. If that accident had not happened, what would he have done to him?" The dominance and dominance on the battlefield are evident.”
"The important thing is that he himself is willing to participate in this war, otherwise I would not easily allow him to go to such a large battlefield." Pointing to the end of the mountains ahead, the commanding black-armored man continued: "After all, he I have encountered a lot of setbacks before, especially in front of another young lady from the Chu family."
"She has become a serious problem for us." As if mentioning something that should not be mentioned, the player dressed as a scholar exuded real anger and hatred: "When I have my hands free, I will deal with this myself. Bastard."
"I know that you, the 'Acting Chairman,' have been very busy recently."
An inexplicable brilliance flashed in his eyes, and the middle-aged man who was holding his face concealed his forward-looking expression in this way: "Especially after the emergence of the 'Local Chicken Alliance', how to deal with public opinion The pressure makes everyone, including Mr. Chu, feel a little overwhelmed and busy there every day."
"They are still not confident enough in themselves." Not noticing the other party's strangeness, the scholar replied with a low expression: "For me, this level of impact is like a magic empire that is dealing with a war. It is not something to be afraid of at all. .”
"The most important thing is the people's hearts." The black-armored warrior standing in front responded in a low voice: "After all, we have devoted so many years to our great cause, it is normal to feel a little tired in our hearts. We are the heads of the same family, and this kind of expedition I feel the same way that I have been feeling for a long time but have achieved nothing.”
"I will encourage them in my own way." After saying this, he turned back and smiled: "The alliance's prosecutors will also take action in the near future, giving our enemies a big blow."
"As long as the board of directors can pass it." Nodding his head, the scholar sighed and replied: "If it's like the Lu family before..."
"That's just an example." Interrupting the other party's words, the armored warrior shook his head nonchalantly and said, "I will persuade others to face up to the threat posed by that man."
"After all, it is also a legacy within your family. It seems very reasonable for you to deal with it yourself." He accused the other party calmly, and the scholar-like player's figure gradually turned into white light and disappeared: "Then I wish you all the best. This off-site job will go smoothly, I'll go take a look at my unscrupulous son."
"..."
Without saying too many words, the middle-aged armored warrior just watched the other person disappear in front of his eyes quietly. The evening breeze blew the air around him and brought an increasingly cold feeling, which seemed to make the expression of the man who was silent on the mountain top also Becoming more rigid: “…a bunch of idiots.”
"Have you not found the beautiful jade yet?"
Without the relaxed smile before, he turned and walked towards the bottom of the hillside and asked in a cold voice: "That loser, haven't you solved that stupid problem yet?"
"The technical staff within the clan are helping him solve it, but the current progress... is not smooth." A subordinate who rushed forward hurriedly responded: "He himself is still resting inside the alliance headquarters. It seems that There doesn’t seem to be any rush to solve the login difficulties.”
"Hmph, that guy still has his own agenda." So the middle-aged man in black armor said with a bit of anger in his tone: "Even if he doesn't confess, as long as he can bring out all the weapons we prepared earlier... ...No, if you don’t do one thing and don’t stop doing the other, why should you hold back when you are facing a life-and-death enemy?”
"You guys, go and deliver my order, just say——"
"The head of the family—the president!"
Another player who rushed forward appeared at the end of the mountain. The trajectory through the rocks and jungle also brought a piercing scream that interrupted the middle-aged man: "Message from the outpost, someone is breaking through us." The cordon in the east!”
"Possibly an attack!"
************************************
"Miss Lingbing seems to have broken through the cordon, sir."
Some time later, in the Void Library, a maid player carrying a teacup appeared next to Duan Qing who was busy. She appeared silently in the darkness and stood there waiting for a while. In the end, she still endured it. He couldn't help but said to the gray-robed magician who was concentrating: "Do you need Ninglan to provide help?"
"No need, she should be measured." It seemed that she had known the other party's arrival for a long time. Duan Qing answered without raising his head and showed no surprise in his voice: "As long as she still remembers the task I gave her, there should be no question."
"Sir, you really trust Miss Lingbing." The sound of making tea echoed in the quiet void library. Holding the teapot, Ningyu Ninglan smiled and tilted her head: "I hope Miss Lingbing returns safely."
"Thank you, put it aside for now." Rejecting the other party's move to hand over tea, Duan Qing still stared closely at the old crucible in front of him: "I will definitely drink it when I'm done."
"Is this alchemy experiment really that important?"
Blinking her own eyes, Enyu Ninglan, who squatted next to Duan Qing, held her cheeks and looked in the same direction. At this time, the mixture with various magical lights was rolling back and forth in the center of the old crucible. From time to time, boiling bubbles that reflected a golden shimmer appeared: "Sir, it's been a long time since I rested."
"It's not an important matter, at least for the current war we are facing." The gray-robed magician answered casually: "It's just to satisfy my personal curiosity and see if I can solve a certain problem." It’s just a problem in the world.”
"The Lord of Violet seems to be busy in an unknown place right now - that's what the two adults, Lorna and Shana, said." Ninglan replied with a smile: "Ninglan heard that she is also busy with Mr. Same thing?”
"Probably, I don't know." Duan Qing replied intently: "My cheap mentor is very elusive. She only comes to me, and I don't have the ability to know what she is doing all the time. "
"Ninglan respects anyone who helps Mr. Ninglan very much." Ninglan, who was squatting aside, also showed a bright smile: "The Lord of Violet is a powerful magician, she will definitely become Mr. The best help.”
"Even if you brag here, she won't be happy." Duan Qing curled his lips: "Is there anything else that needs to be reported?"
"Information about the war shows that the Magic Empire has not continued to block the advancement of players from the Principality, and the three-way intersection leading to Fenghua Town has been completely cleared." Ningyu Ninglan, who straightened up, replied calmly: "But the major guilds The commander and I did not continue to push the front rashly, but temporarily stabilized our pace at the Traveler's House and made plans after we were fully prepared."
"Perhaps they are waiting for the official attack of the principality and the empire." Duan Qing replied absently: "After all, I don't know what kind of monsters are waiting in front. How can a temporary wild team like them be able to deal with them."
"Then...when will we take action?" The maid player said eagerly: "Ninglan heard Miss Yushang talk about the next plan, and Ninglan herself can't wait."
"I don't want to continue to serve those... ahem, I think I said a little too much." Duan Qing, who broke away from the immersive feeling, looked away from the crucible in front of him, then let out a few wry smiles: "So This is why I hope that the experiment can make progress as soon as possible. If it is delayed until the official start of the game - Huh?"
The tumbling and swaying mixture suddenly emitted a burst of golden light in the center of the crucible, and the rising bubbles also made a crisp and crackling sound at this moment. The unknown substance that gradually became stable finally gradually returned to form under Duan Qing's gaze. The black colloid that was visible to the naked eye finally lay in front of the two of them and stopped moving: "...uh."
"It seems that it failed." In the awkward and quiet atmosphere, Ciyu Ninglan was the first to show a clear smile: "Don't be discouraged, sir, Ninglan thinks you will succeed, and you can do it next time."
"Of course I won't give in, there is still time." Duan Qing picked up the tea cup that the maid player had placed beside him and drank it in one gulp. Duan Qing, wiping his mouth, showed a serious expression on his face: "But the summary is still very difficult. It's important, otherwise trying to reproduce the previous black hole would be impossible... Well, let me think about it, is there something wrong with the previous wind element ratio, or maybe it's because of the doping of glow alloy..."
"Ah, right."
As if remembering something important, the maid player who interrupted Duan Qing's thoughts reached out and took out a parchment roll from her arms: "This is the entry list compiled by Miss Yushang. Sir, please take a look."
"You shouldn't need me to look at this kind of thing." Duan Qing reluctantly took the scroll: "Anyway, it doesn't matter who comes. It's not like I haven't met those people who survived before on the Sky City. Have you ever... huh?"
"Wait a minute, what does this mean?"
Frowning slightly, the gray-robed magician glanced up and down at the list and immediately noticed something unusual: "Some of the names don't match up, right? Could it be that -"
"It's impossible for Miss Yushang and the team behind her to do that kind of thing, sir." He answered righteously, and then Ninglan returned to her previous smile: "When Ninglan heard the news I also feel very sorry, but the sources of the news are very real, and statements and announcements can even be found on external websites."
"Since it is the result of force majeure, it is natural for us to make some reasonable concessions."
