"Did we get away with it?"
The sound that echoed like a thunderous bell gradually disappeared in everyone's ears. It sounded like the person who had been monitoring them really moved away from his sight. Several players who gathered together finally recovered their previous involuntary release. Breathing lightly, they looked at each other with suspicious eyes: "Is it that simple? That guy doesn't actually know us?"
"Perhaps we are not as famous as we thought." Duan Qing, who breathed a sigh of relief, was the first to answer: "But it is still a little strange: it's just that I don't know Mephisto, two former members of the Magic Empire, he You didn’t even recognize Freya?”
"The members of the Magic Council of the Magic Empire are full of strange things, as you must be very aware of." Freya's reply was also deliberately lowered: "Of course there are old guys here who are out of touch with the world. They think very highly of themselves and don't even bother. He has something to do with the so-called 'Eternal World', so it's not a surprise that he doesn't know our Council of Mages."
"Can you explain this?" Sansheng Yutang couldn't help but screamed: "Are you sure it's really because of this? You're not just looking for a reason to stall us, are you?"
"Are you doubting my words?" The coldness in her eyes became even worse. Freya finally chose not to get angry, but turned her head to the side: "I don't need to lie on this issue, it doesn't matter to me. Any benefit."
"However, this possibility is still too false and difficult to convince." Duan Qing, who rarely stood on the side of Sansheng Fish Pond, lowered his head and buried his thoughtful expression in the darkness: "Think about it. There are other possibilities. For example, he can only see our situation now, but not our actual appearance..."
"Are you referring to methods like radar blips or infrared scanning?" Mephisto asked in a low voice, "Would the Magic Empire use such a crude surveillance method?"
"This is not a question of whether they can, but whether they want to." Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "According to our previous speculation and his previous reaction, this passage to the void should not be what humans should Where we come in, in this case, whether it is necessary to conduct surveillance here becomes a question in itself."
"Whether they are monitoring this place or not, is this question important now?" Crab Crab Soup Dumpling, who was lying on the ground and had not yet gotten up, asked feebly: "Whether they really know us or not, as long as they can leave as soon as possible Is it good here?"
"The problem is not that simple." Duan Qing glared at the young swordsman: "You all heard what that guy said just now. He said he had to deal with the outside first, and then he would come and take care of us."
"If our understanding is correct, he should be referring to the battlefield outside the tower." At this point, the gray-robed magician raised his head, and the light in his eyes became serious again: "I don't want to let him go just like that. Let’s go, no matter whether the battlefield outside is currently advantageous or disadvantageous, adding a new force out of thin air is not good news for our side.”
"So you want to hold him back from here?" Xue Ling Huan Bing nodded calmly and replied, "I agree, so——"
"Should we make more noise?"
The whistling sound began to gradually amplify in everyone's ears, and the shadows representing a new round of meteorites also began to approach their location. The gray-robed magician and the white-haired swordsman nodded to each other, and their hands began to A bright light shines: "Get ready!"
"What do you want to do——"
"Walk!"
The sudden acceleration caused Sansheng Yutang's unfinished words to quickly lengthen, and also caused a certain young swordsman who was still dizzy to let out a louder scream. He clutched the stone slab under his feet and then felt My head felt cold, and I watched helplessly as a neatly cut stone flew past my ears: "Ahhhhh! You guys, please be careful!"
"Why panic, everything is under control." The reply from Duan Qing then sounded in his ears.
It was accompanied by the buzzing sound of magic as he quickly operated something: "I'm still responsible for racing, and I don't have time to care about you. If you don't want to participate in the battle-"
"Just hold on to yourself!"
Amidst another passing sound of breaking through the air, a second black shadow of a huge stone passed over the head of the young swordsman. However, this time it was not only the sound of flying boulders that broke through the air, but also the sound of a huge stone flying by. There was a sweet cry from the snow spirit Huan Bing in front: "Cross Slash!"
"Look around to see if there is anything that can be destroyed!" Duan Qing's reminder sounded in everyone's ears at the right time: "If there is anything, try to hit it! As many as you can hit!"
"Smashing these meteorites should count, right?" Freya, who also threw out countless rays of fire and shattered some of the boulder shadows, also raised her arm: "There is still a batch of debris...could it be? Don’t they have any goods to transport?”
"Hey, how big do you want to make this matter?" Mephisto's forehead was already covered with black lines: "If something important is really hit, the hatred between us and the Magic Empire will be over. ——"
"You guys!"
The huge echo appeared in front of everyone again, suppressing Mephisto along with the whistling sounds that kept ringing around him. The vibrations in the air that were visible to the naked eye then followed the anger in this voice, along the way. Waves came from the edge of this passage toward the depths of the dark abyss: "What are you doing? Can't you be a little more honest?"
"There is no other way, we are just trying to survive." Duan Qing, who controlled the stone platform under his feet and shuttled between countless broken stones, secretly encouraging others to continue their sabotage activities, still looked helpless and embarrassed on the surface: "Don't do it If these stones were smashed, we might have been killed."
"What you smashed is not an ordinary stone! What you smashed is the residue of the original stone of life!" The loud and rough voice was a little louder: "Don't you recognize it? When you were on the surface, you were surrounded every day. They knock around and you can't recognize them inside 'Pip?"
"Of course we can recognize it, but... ahem, these things are useless no matter how you look at them." Covering the bright light in his eyes, Duan Qing's face looked very innocent in the reflection of countless sword energy and firelight: "As long as we can It shouldn’t be a problem to smash these debris to save our lives, right?”
"You don't understand the value of these things at all!"
The powerful sound became more intense at this moment, and the tinnitus began to make everyone present have to cover their ears: "So, those fools in the parliament, why did they agree to let you do everything? Mortals who don't understand participate in the mining of the Emerald Land? What else can you do besides being ignorant, stupid, obstructive, and making a mess of things? What else can you do?"
"I'm going to report to the council and get rid of all you damn mortals from here!" His emotions sounded more and more intense, and finally seemed to reach the level of hysteria: "No! I'm going to get you out now!"
"Don't get excited, sir! We didn't do this on purpose!" Duan Qing's defensive voice also came during the rapid flight: "We are also trying to survive! You know, we humble adventurers don't have No other pursuit, we just want to survive! There is nothing we can do!"
"If you, my lord, easily execute adventurers like us who came here rashly, what will other adventurers who are willing to serve the Magic Empire think after the news spreads? Will they still maintain their current loyalty?" Snow on the side Ling Huanbing's timely protest sounded solemn and awe-inspiring amidst the whistling sword lights that kept passing by: "The Magic Empire won't not care for its own people, right?"
"Love...the people?"
The rumbling sound gradually extinguished, and even the large and small meteorites that continued to fall seemed to have some momentum to stop. The person who had been hearing the voice from the dark depths seemed to be stimulated by Xue Ling Huan Bing's words. , the originally manic mood gradually calmed down: "My... people? No, I am no longer... not..."
"Ahem, so I can
Will you help us, my lord? "Seizing this opportunity, Duan Qing hurriedly regained the opponent's attention: "This temporarily assembled aircraft under our feet is about to fall apart. After our magic power is exhausted, we will really become this. The scum of the universe."
"...Wait a moment, I need to stop the operation of this channel first." The voice came again after a period of silence, but compared with the hoarse and rough hearing before, this time it was obviously more calm and calm. Tranquility: "Set Gradir's Star to its inverted state, as well as the magic power circuit...and the emergency defense device...well, that's it."
"There should be no obstruction in front of you." The voice announced the news in an extremely calm tone, but even the most immature Mr. Soup Dumpling could hear a little bit of it from his last words. The pride and pride: "Come out, my people...ahem, no, it's my compatriots. I, Raval Roy Roderick, will ensure your safety."
"Rodrick?" He seemed to be very familiar with the surname that suddenly appeared in his ears, and the question from Duan Qing subconsciously appeared in his mouth: "Is it the 'Rodrick dynasty that once perished in the depths of the East China Sea? "
"Oh? There are still people who have heard of this name." There was some fluctuation in the rumbling echo again: "Yes, I come from the maritime dynasty that once was glorious in the Free Continent but was eventually destroyed. We once With a territory wider than any other country and a people stronger than any living thing, even the magic technology of the Magic Empire cannot—cough.”
"Anyway, those things are in the past now." The rumbling voice paused unnaturally for a long time, and finally completed the perfunctory work in an awkward and direct way: "This name can only represent the past now, other than that It has no value outside of it, so you don’t need to pursue it.”
"...I'm sorry, Your Excellency." Duan Qing bowed slightly towards the endless depths of the void, and replied with respect: "It reminds you of the sad past."
"After a while, I'm afraid even the word 'past' won't be able to be called the past." The voice replied slightly sadly: "But it doesn't matter, as long as the Magic Empire can rise, my existence, my thoughts, and Everything else about me will also be continued...You should be able to see the exit, right?"
"Yes." Following the prompt of this voice, several people raised their heads at the same time. The far end of the passage in front of their flight path was no longer a solid darkness, but a trace of darkness appeared. Guangming: "It seems like an exit has appeared."
"'Gradir's heart will not be closed for long, you must use this time to complete the escape." The rumbling sound continued to reply: "Don't worry, I have sent my capable apprentices to help you pass through the energy. Buffer area, when you return to the tower, the crisis will be over."
"A capable apprentice?" Duan Qing and others' secretly happy expressions were obviously suffocated: "Uh, this, this... may I ask who is the capable person?"
There was no answer - or it was too late to answer Duan Qing's question. The elevator aircraft that several people were riding in had gradually converged with the gradually expanding light. The outline of the original light was also outlined into a circle during the magnification process. On the edge, a cylindrical exit appeared around the soft spherical device suspended in the middle. In the edge area where black and white intersect, five blurry figures suspended in the light also outline a perfect pentagon at an extremely perfect distance. One of the suspended figures at the vertex of the pentagon is also welcoming Duan Qing. While waiting for others to fly forward, he put down the ancient staff he had been raising: "Is this the person you asked us to rescue? Your Excellency, mentor?"
"It is indeed a surprising answer." Another figure at the apex of the pentagon made the same old voice as the first figure: "Since your mentor has asked us to come to assist, we will naturally execute it meticulously. But before that, I think we still need to remind Sir Sir."
"Do you know their identities?" The third lane is at the vertex of the pentagon.
The old voice then asked, with a hint of joking in the tone of the question: "Do you know that they are not our companions? Nor are they your people?"
The gradually rising elevator and the softly glowing spherical device were about to collide, compressing the atmosphere of the scene to the extreme of silence. The rumble that echoed in the space was not answered for a long time, and the last thing that sounded was an unbelievable sound. Furious: "You said-"
"What!"
