The halls of the underground boxing ring have become empty competition venues under the previous arrangements and transformations of Ciyu Ninglan, but not everything is left. Some of the facilities and equipment that cannot be moved are also temporarily piled in these halls. The corner merged with the dark and dirty scene unique to the underground waterway. The corner Duan Qing checked was one of them, but the messy iron frames and tables and cabinets originally piled here had been destroyed into scattered fragments in the aftermath of the previous fierce battle, and were also torn apart by the aftermath of the battle. One of the huge cracks that opened appeared on the wall behind along the extension of the ruin-like fragments. The wind blowing through the huge crack also emitted bursts of cold sounds in front of Duan Qing's eyes: " ……Depend on."
"Did you run away?" Jiang Shan Ruhua, who was standing not far away and tilted the shield in his hand, asked without attacking or approaching. He seemed to have noticed the same scene as Duan Qing: "This crack looks not small... …The quality of your projects here is not up to standard.”
"What are you talking about? Is this our project? This is Tania's project, okay?" Duan Qing looked at the inside and outside of the crack with his hands on his hips. Hearing this, Duan Qing replied angrily: "Now that the damage is like this, what will happen to the Principality afterwards?" Maybe they’ll even come to us for compensation!”
"That's your problem, and there's nothing I can do to help." He shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and then Jiang Shan Ruhua pointed at the audience around him: "Do you want to fight or not? They are still waiting for us."
"The game must continue, but the person who ran away just now must also be dealt with."
Still staring at the other end of the dark wall in front of him, the gray-robed magician pondered for a moment: "The fighting above should be in full swing now, and there are no extra manpower to solve the matter here. If that person ends up I probably feel very sorry for anything that happened because of this wonderful coincidence."
"What are you, what prince?" Jiang Shan Ruhua glanced helplessly in the direction of the crack in the wall: "Aren't the two who ran past just passers-by?"
"Hey, it's okay if you come here as a passerby." Duan Qing touched his nose and let out a low laugh: "It would be nice if the people who came to chase me could treat them as passers-by and let them go... I'm sorry."
He turned around and bowed to Jiangshan Ruhua and the other players and spectators behind him: "There is an urgent matter that I need to deal with. How about putting the game on hold this time?"
"How can that be done?"
Before Jiang Shan Ruhua himself could express anything, some of the audience members in the crowd began to express their dissatisfaction: "It took a lot of effort for us to squeeze in to this place! I don't know when we will have to wait until next time!"
"That's right! You've come here, how can you do it without finishing it?"
"How long are you going to release the water, Sky-Breaking Blade? Hurry and deal with him!"
"Fake match! Are you going to fake the match again? First, you deliberately made a three-on-one stunt, and now you have come up with such a trick to let us viewers off. Do you want to continue to get more matches? ?」
….
"Okay, okay, I was wrong, I was wrong!"
Faced with countless accusations that came one after another, the gray-robed magician's forehead was already covered with various beads of sweat. He shouted at the waves of people he didn't know who caused it, and at the same time raised his hand to surrender. hands: "Then let the game continue! Can the game continue? Let's change the way we play."
"Let's go chase the two people who ran away just now. Whoever catches them first will win." Duan Qing turned his eyes to Jiangshan Ruhua on the side: "You should be able to accept this condition, right? After all, let's continue now. In a one-on-one fight, you probably have no chance of winning. If you chase someone else and capture them, your chances might be better."
"Huh, of course I don't have any objections." Looking back at the audience who were still waiting to protest, Jiang Shan Ruhua snorted and replied: "You still want to give me a chance, so don't blame me for taking advantage of this loophole... just Just capture the two people just now, right? What if one of them captures one of them?"
"Indeed, in that case it will be a draw." Duan Qing rubbed his chin and nodded: "Then just catch one, catch that one
A... ahem, just catch the NC. He is the main target, and the remaining players don't need to worry about it. "
"That guy with injuries all over his body and who seems to be mentally disturbed, right? Okay." Moving his hands and feet, Jiang Shan Ruhua slowly walked forward: "How do I know the outcome?"
"Blooming flowers! I leave this question to you!" So Duan Qing shouted above his head: "You should be tracking our progress, right? If anyone completes the victory conditions, you will inform everyone!"
"So when did my status in the world become so low? I still have to do dirty work to commentate on a game, right?" Then there were a lot of complaints from above the broken ceiling: "Although according to the off-field information I just got, News, I think everyone may be more interested in the competition format you just proposed - ahem, this is the huge advantage of our 'Chicken Beak Cup' competition! The content of the competition will be updated at any time, and it will be more exciting, more intense and more popular at any time I’ll give this performance to everyone!”
"Okay, okay, let's get started." Ignoring the heartless commentator's irresponsible shouting, Duan Qing withdrew his gaze from the increasingly noisy audience around him: "Ah, yes Yes, there is one more thing."
"If you really catch that guy first, remember to protect his safety."
Leaving behind these last words, the gray-robed magician took the lead to pass along the edge of the gap in the wall. The sound of thick and heavy footsteps followed closely behind him, with a picturesque echo from Jiangshan. Disappeared into the underground passage behind the crack. I don’t know whether it was due to the impact of the previous fierce battle or some other huge change. The underground passage behind this wall gap was now in a mess, with collapsed walls and rubble on the ground. It also covered most of the footprints left by the two people who escaped earlier, leaving more unknown underground space in front of Duan Qing and the others: "...Is it this direction?"
"Aren't you a magician? Use your invincible magic to think of a solution." The shield warrior tapped his shield: "Elemental induction? The eye of truth? Or is it your extremely sensitive nose as an alchemist?"
….
"What on earth do you think of an alchemist?" Duan Qing replied angrily, and then took a few steps forward along the direction of the rubble and the remaining wall: "It should be in this direction, if I am extremely nervous If I were to escape under a certain situation, my panic would definitely fill my entire escape process, and I would not have much time and energy to think about which direction I should go and which road I should choose to escape."
"So you must continue to plunge forward, right?" Jiangshan Ruhua took the lead in crossing Duan Qing's shoulders and jumped towards the hole in the ground that had cracked deep in the passage: "I'll take the lead first."
Then a heavy sound of landing came from below the cracked hole. After the shield warrior submerged into the darkness, there was no sound for a long time. Duan Qing, who came forward, also looked down and saw the picturesque scenery of Jiangshan. The back figure was standing quietly in the middle of a long, high and wide passage illuminated by two rows of dim magic lights below: "What's wrong?"
"What is this place?"
Pointing to his feet, Jiang Shan Ruhua asked hesitantly. The two parallel tracks were also reflecting the same dark yellow light on both sides of his feet, extending straight along the passage to the invisible place. End: "Here is——"
"It's Tania's train track." Duan Qing, who was above the entrance of the cave, answered with his head tilted: "Speaking of which, someone did say before that the location of the underground boxing ring is very close to the train track. I didn't expect it to be right here. .”
"The competition you organized almost destroyed other people's railway lines. You have to take a big responsibility for this." So Jiang Shanruhua squatted down and inspected the surface of the track: "Well, it's still very new. It looks like it's been there forever. In use."
"Since it is still in use, it means that both sides of this underground tunnel are open." Duan Qing, who finally jumped down, sighed helplessly: "One side leads to Tania's station, and the other side leads to Tania's station. Go outside the city."
"They really could escape like that if they had the chance."
The fierce competition as imagined did not happen. The two agreed contestants
The hands stood one on one in the middle of the subway, looking at each other. The sarcastic sobs of the cold wind seemed to be urging the two people, faintly coming from the depths of the passage where they stood still: "... Which way?"
"No need to ask, of course it's to the outside of the city."
"Then why don't you run?"
"I...ahem, am I not giving in to you? After all, I am a magician. I can run faster than you with just a wind acceleration spell..."
"Don't do this, you must have seen something."
Jiangshan Ruhua, who snorted coldly and pointed at Duan Qing's head, took two steps forward and then turned around: "According to common sense, the fugitive will definitely move in the direction where he can escape from the city, but you just didn't I was specifically reminded that a fugitive who panics and chooses a route may not have the cool head to make such a choice."
"So he just jumped down from above, and then ran in a random direction before the girl behind him caught up." After analyzing this, Jiangshan Ruhua opened his adventurer's manual and began to compare what he had found. The directional relationship between the location and Tania City: "The direction we jumped down from before was this way. The NC must have continued running forward without even daring to look back."
….
"That's a very correct idea." Duan Qing nodded approvingly: "So are you going to chase this way? This way seems to be heading towards Tania."
"If that NC is really a fugitive, he will definitely not just run back to the city and surrender himself to the trap." Jiang Shanruhua, who looked at the adventurer's map in his hand, shook his head vigorously: "So he——"
"I'll definitely do that."
A faint whistling sound came from the depths of the passage as Jiang Shan picturesque's words fell. Facing the sound of wind that broke through the air, there was also the sonorous sound made when the train and the rails came into contact with each other, representing the train carriages in the free world. The huge square shadow then crashed past where Duan Qing and Jiang Shan Ruhua were while driving rapidly, and flew towards the other end of the tunnel in the opposite direction with a burst of siren sound created by magic.
*****************************************
"stop!"
Time moved forward a short distance, and on a carriage of a long-distance magic train that had just departed from Tania Station and headed for Freedom City, three or two guards in uniforms and holding sticks were walking along the passage inside the carriage. He ran forward section after section, looking like he was chasing someone: "Stop!"
"I'm not a stowaway!"
At the end of the carriage in front of these uniformed guards, a young man in ragged clothes was running hoarsely between the corridors of the carriages where the passengers were looking at each other in panic, shouting as he climbed over obstacles and checkpoints one after another: "I just I was a little injured! Why do you want to arrest me!"
"Stop quibbling! My companion saw you sneaking in through the window on the side of the carriage!" A guard running at the front shouted, waving a stick in his hand: "You are not a normal passenger if you sneak in. ! Where is your ticket? Take it out and show it to me!"
"I, my ticket was lost! I was beaten up! They took my ticket away!" The ragged young man running ahead had already opened the door of a new carriage: "Don't you go arrest the robber?" You committed a crime, but you kept running over to catch me? Look at my pitiful look!"
"We also have some clues about the 'robber' in your mouth." A tall guard running behind in pursuit warned in a low voice: "We have noticed that you are not the only stowaway who boarded the train on the way, there is also another stowaway. Man, she has good skills and can run very fast.”
"Is he your accomplice?"
The chaotic running sounds stopped abruptly, because the guards who appeared in the other direction of the carriage had blocked the poor young man's escape route. The sounds of questioning and scolding also approached the middle of the sparse passengers' stunned gazes. Soon, He pushed the young man who looked strange and had a weak breath to the ground: "Who are you? Why did you sneak into the car?"
"I, I am...I am not the same person as the person who is chasing me! She, she is chasing me!"
"Chasing you? Do you think we are fools?" Several guards who were holding him down sneered at the same time: "Is that what you are? Who would chase you? Are you a rich man or something?" The nobles of the country?"
"me--"
Boom.
A violent crash appeared on the outside of the carriage again, instantly interrupting the voices of several people who were still making fun. The guards gathered around exchanged glances with each other, and then made silent gestures towards the sound. The sources are scattered: "The God of Destiny is above."
"There are so many guests today."
