It is difficult to distinguish between night and day in a stormy haven, the dark sky and the violent sea that is always covered with downpours also make the alternation of day and night much more obscure, and the pirates who have been galloping on the sea for a long time can only use the magic instruments to record time and the sleep they use to rest, and barely make their own marks and judgments on whether their time is a new day. The same applies to ordinary players, who are just aware that the free world that pursues real life does not decorate the numbers that represent the passage of time in the lower right corner of the normal player's system page, and in the eyes of this kind of people, using the system panel to explore their physical state and other related pages seems to be the greatest gift given to them by the free world's system.

However, this point also seems to be different in Duan Qing's body, and the biggest difference that proves this is that after a night, he can find Fura who has just woken up very accurately, and the words used to greet her.

"Yo, good morning."

“…… You've come at a better time. ”

Holding his forehead and slowly rising from the hard and simple bed board, the long golden hair of the woman named Fula beside her also pulled straight golden threads as the beautiful and delicate face rose: "The rest time of the dragon clan is different from what you humans know, and the sleep we need is very long. ”

"Well, I guess it's some kind of feeling." Scratching his head, a slightly embarrassed expression gradually appeared on Duan Qing's face: "And if it weren't for some special reasons, I wouldn't easily disturb your rest and sleep." ”

"And that's why you found my head?"

After briefly listening to Duan Qing's explanation and the reason, Fula's eyebrows seemed to begin to gradually rise upside: "Impossible, go back." ”

"Don't be so ruthless, it's good to think about it a little." Standing up his face, which had been tempered into a thousand layers, the corners of Duan Qing's mouth seemed to twitch slightly with the forced smile: "Is it because of what is the difficulty?" Or is it because of a reluctance to help us? ”

"What do you think you're looking for? Is it just a dragon scale? No, what you're looking for is the face of the dragons. The voice said this indifferently, and Fura, who was sitting on the edge of the bed with her arms crossed, then opened her eyes, which were closed with anger: "It is impossible for the dragons to lose their face because of the demands of mortals, and it would be a great shame if it reached the clansmen, unless—"

"You can give me a more reasonable reason."

The straightened face slackened slightly, and the blonde dragon woman who seemed to have remembered something fell on Duan Qing's body with a single gaze that was raised: "It's not used to create a void portal, nor is it used to provide you with any righteous help, but something more suitable for impressing me......"

"Like love?"

Looking at the other party's appearance of rolling his eyelids, Duan Qing smiled dryly and slowly put back his joking embarrassed expression: "Well, after all, we have no other way to think of now, the transaction between us and Molna has almost come to an end, and the environment of the safe haven makes us have almost no other way to use." ”

"The most important thing is that we owe enough favors."

The dry smile gradually turned into a wry smile, and Duan Qing's gaze then fell on the edge of the bed in front of Fura: "Molna won't help us more, the pirates have already put in enough effort to hunt materials, and even Rona has already given us so much advice, we can't ask her more." ”

"Of course, I shouldn't be just as harsh on you with these banners." He looked at Furla's face, which was cold again, and then the feeling on his face began to become sincere: "I will not advance more future in exchange for your trust, and the trust between us should be established in more and more effective ways, such as——"

"How's that to say?" He raised one of his hands, paused for a moment, and then spoke again: "Remember why you were with us in the first place?" ”

"Because of Giron." As if infected by the aura emanating from Duan Qing's body at this time, Fula's gaze gradually became serious in the look of recollection: "Entrusted by the clansmen, I came to find the whereabouts of Ji Nuoen. ”

"When I was bathing in the explosion of Tania's magic furnace, I had foreseen some strange images." Nodding at Fula, Duan Qing's voice gradually sounded in an affirmative tone: "I have also described these strange pictures to you, although I don't know what they represent, but I have always believed that they reveal the future we need to face. ”

"That must have something to do with Genone." Speaking of this, the gray-robed mage shook his fist vigorously: "The presence of the dragons is not only proof of the whereabouts of the dragon you are seeking, but also of their incomparable connection to the end of time. ”

"Of course, this refers to Tania on the plane we are on." Pointing to the west outside the tower, Duan Qing tilted his head at Fura who was still resting on the bed: "And as we all know, the Void World is the most unstable world in time and space, and among the possibilities that we can assume now, none of them are inseparable from this world. ”

"Don't you think so?"

He raised one of his fingers, and his originally serious expression also brought a calm smile at this time, and the dragon woman who was being watched by Duan Qing then also blinked her eyes, and her golden dragon eyes were then covered by her long golden hair: "This is indeed a good reason." ”

"During this time, the main motivation that drove you to walk with us was your curiosity about the world." The outstretched finger was slowly retracted, and Duan Qing's answer was extremely low: "And no matter how you think about it, the attraction that belongs to the Void World should be more effective than here, right?" ”

"Of course, the level of danger is higher than here." Pressing his flanks, the voice belonging to Fura then sounded again after a period of silence: "And my state has not recovered, not only the magic of the broken dragon, but also the loss of the power to manipulate space before is also very huge......"

"As long as you can agree with the idea, that's enough." Giving a thumbs up to the other party, the smile on Duan Qing's face began to gradually spread: "We can take the lead in opening up a base in that world, and take advantage of the opportunity when we just repelled Distea, if Rona's theory is not wrong, we can stabilize this void passage of ours——"

"You and I have a starting point to continue exploring in the future, don't we?"

A longer silence then dispersed in the space where they looked at each other, and for a while, only the roar of the storm outside was still floating up and down in this attic, and Fura, whose expression on her face was becoming more and more strange, then pursed her lips under Duan Qing's increasingly expectant gaze, and her fingers gradually put on her long golden hair: "In the words that you adventurers like, this time it should be considered an investment for me." ”

"Believe me, this investment will definitely pay off." Looking at the other party with a happy face, the voice belonging to Duan Qing then sounded in the other party's action: "You agreed?" ”

"As long as it's scales with spatial energy, is it okay?" Lowering her head, Fura's voice seemed to turn into self-talk: "Scales or something are nothing at all, I can give you something better." ”

The muffled sound then came from the mouth of the dragon woman, accompanied by the sudden movement of the fingers of the dragon woman on the side of her cheek, and three or two long golden hairs then appeared between the fingertips of the dragon woman who gradually pulled away, and finally turned into a few golden filaments and appeared in front of Duan Qing: "Hmph, so this is very painful-"

"Take it."

Holding her sideburns that had just been torn off with one hand, she frowned, and then lowered her head and stuffed these golden filaments in the direction where Duan Qing, who was smiling bitterly.

"It's just investment materials, don't misunderstand me."

*********************************

"Okay, the materials are ready, right?"

The howling sea breeze continued to pass around the haven where Duan Qing and the others were, but the scene of wind and rain did not bring any enthusiasm to the surface of the broken bridge at this time, and the pirates who were originally planning to go to sea again to hunt at this time also stood in the distance where the people gathered and pointed and pointed at it, waiting together for the ritual that the group of players who had gathered for a long time was about to bring: "Can these golden silk threads replace the scales of the golden snake?" ”

"I don't know much about your alchemy, and this kind of authoritative judgment should be made by you."

Shaking his head to answer Duan Qing's question, the mysterious figure named Luo Na was also busy back and forth on the surface of the broken bridge at this time: "Of course, the spatial magic energy contained in these hairs is not much worse than the scales of the golden snake, so it should be feasible." ”

"What an exciting answer."

There was no feeling of joy on his face because of Luo Na's result, and Duan Qing, who was covering his forehead, then looked back behind him helplessly: "It's good now, I have more personal debts on my body...... What about Voy's blood? ”

"Thankfully, we have collected some of the corpses of the huge centaurs left over from the previous battle." Lying on the other side of the ceremony venue, Asahi Dongsheng, who was arranging on the other side, gave his thumbs up: "You used to complain that I didn't do serious things, but now who is the person who contributes the most?" ”

"Let's wait until these things can really be a substitute for 'Voy Blood'." Expressionlessly pointing at the disgusting-looking black pieces of meat that were being placed on the ground by the other party, Duan Qing frowned and turned his head: "The Enchantress Flower has also been prepared, and the magic gem has also been put in place...... When can we start? ”

"Anytime." The movement that was constantly scribbling on the ground of the broken bridge under his feet suddenly drew the final stroke, and the voice belonging to Luo Na then echoed in Duan Qing's ears in a low voice: "The ritual circle will be completed soon, and the rest will be waiting for you to get ready." ”

"So-"

Nodding vigorously, Duan Qing, who glanced at Xue Ling Phantom Ice, then turned behind him: "Then we're ready to go." Mr. Tielin, are you sure you want to stay here forever? ”

"Don't confuse us with you, our men of the sea have never been afraid of the challenges of the sea." With a look of disdain, Tie Lin, who was asked by Duan Qing, stroked his thick beard with an iron hook: "But the Void Ocean is not necessarily, that mysterious unknown area is still left to you to explore." ”

"With Rhona's guidance, it shouldn't be a dangerous unknown area." Waving his hand, Duan Qing gestured to the figure behind him: "But...... Anyway, you're the ones who can leave here at any time, and it's a bit too much to force you here. ”

"Don't say that, you could have had an easier choice." Taking out a wine jug in his arms, Tie Lin gestured and greeted Duan Qing for a moment with the spout of the bottle that had bitten the cap open: "Salute to your bravery." ”

"Thank you."

A faint light began to appear behind Duan Qing, accompanied by the scene of Duan Qing's posture bowing down in thanks and being shrouded in purple aura, and he noticed this change, and then turned his head, and a surprise voice belonging to Luo Na came from his ears: "It's successful!" It's really going to be successful. ”

"Well, let's see what is coming to us." Looking vigilantly at the center of the ritual circle where these purple aura gradually gathered together, Duan Qing muttered in a low voice, "I hope everything can go well." ”

"Rest assured, the Void anchor I am connected to should be fixed." It seemed that a series of efforts had finally paid off, and Luo Na, who was standing in front of Duan Qing, seemed to be full of relief in her voice: "As long as the Void Portal is opened according to this ritual, it will definitely teleport us to the place I envisioned—huh?" ”

"Wait a minute, something seems wrong."

In the sight of countless pirates who had retreated into the distance when they heard the wind, the purple light in the central area of this broken bridge suddenly erupted in the spiraling purple silk threads, and the void storm that appeared in the middle of the spiral purple silk threads then erupted in the process of a polygonal irregular portal faintly forming, enveloping all the surrounding figures, including Duan Qing.
