"Team, Captain! The eastern line of defense has been breached! ”

"If it's breached, it's breached, it's already decided to retreat anyway...... Tell the dead team members that they don't have to rush over to resurrect them! ”

"So, where are we going next?"

"Go to Westtown, then go to County Etta, and now that's the only place you can go...... Walk! Come on! ”

Cha.

The cacophony of metal grinding sounded again in a jungle northwest of the outskirts of Tania near the central region of Talonshire of the Free World, and several figures who flickered and moved in the dark night then shouted and rushed out of the edge of the lush woods, striking a series of brilliant sparks against the backdrop of the endless plains. The short body dodged another sword attack, and the female thief player named Yumetake then rolled to the ground with blades of grass and shocking blood stains, her jewel-like eyes quickly swept around, and then shouted to the rest of the retreating players behind her, "Give up the left flank!" Evacuate now! You guys, don't fight anymore! ”

"But, but then—"

"Tell you to leave, where is so much nonsense!"

The slender hand turned a strange arc in the air, and the petite body belonging to Mengzhu then supported the ground behind him hard, and the upside-down tumbling immediately twisted her body back to a fighting posture under her skillful movement, and at the same time drew a dazzling golden light in the air: "No need to cover anymore, no one can go if this continues...... Old Black! You take the people and withdraw first! ”

"What about you? What are you going to do when I'm gone? The voice belonging to the black corn then rose from a distant corner of the night: "I am a warrior, I am more suitable than you to break off, and even if we succeed in breaking away, without the command of the president......"

"Don't worry, I'll get away."

The collision of metal and the interweaving of sword qi suddenly stopped, and at the same time stopped the sound of hunting wind that kept stirring over this area, as if the battlefield that was frozen at the same time with these words gradually divided into two distinct lines along the position of the little girl, with a large number of chasing soldiers who caught up with each other and gradually confronted the player side who seemed to be weak: "In terms of combat power, you may be stronger, but in terms of survival rate...... I'm a thief who's much bigger than you in any way. ”

"Let's go." She let go of her dagger and pushed the lifeless corpse of a lifeless pursuer beside her to the ground: "This is an order, don't hesitate any longer." ”

“…… It's a lot of courage, and I'm a little impressed. ”

The sparse applause then sounded on the other side of the pursuers, and the swordsman players who walked to the front with a line of pursuers appeared in front of Mengzhu who turned back again, and the swordsman who had no scars on his body seemed to care much about the backs of the distant players who slowly began to evacuate, but looked at the petite woman who was still standing in place in front of him with a ruthless and playful gaze: "Black corn is indeed not suitable for breaking off, but are you more suitable for a thief?" ”

"This is not a capital adventure, but a battlefield that decides life and death in a moment, here ......"

His hand pointed forward: "It's not a joke. ”

The clash of armor resounded sparsely from the woods behind him, accompanied by more and more figures of the Duchy guards appearing in the cracks of the trees, and the eyes that stared at Mengzhu then converged like ferocious beasts, exuding a feeling of oppression that was enough to suffocate the chest in the dark night. The footsteps that moved forward again then turned into a torrent of steel, and as the guards drowned out from the left and right of the thieves at an increasing speed, the little girl who did not stop the torrent then raised her long golden hair, which had been glued together with blood, and breathed hard the disgusting breath of steel and blood mixed with the closer: "...... Listen to the rain upstairs. ”

"Don't resent me, little one."

As if in response to Mengzhu's muttering, Lou Tingyu, who came forward with this torrent of steel, raised the long sword in his hand lightly: "If you want to blame this world full of injustice, and the stupidity of you who dare to make a move at this time......"

"Did you hear that Yulou will no longer continue to endure it?" Ignoring the figure of the other party gradually approaching, Mengzhu, who hid his expression in the darkness, asked the player in an ancient sword robe with an unkind face: "Is it because I haven't done anything recently, and I haven't made any achievements in the professional world, so I can't help but take the opportunity to take advantage of the momentum?" ”

"Don't try to mess with me with words like that, you know it's not going to be of any use to us pros." The green veins on his face showed a moment, and the swordsman player known as Lou Tingyu then regained his indifferent expression: "As long as you fool adventure group with no name falls, your industrial chain in Tania and Sky City will all become unclaimed cakes, even if the Principality Council does not recognize its legitimate rights, countless forces that have long been eyeing them will eventually divide them up." ”

"It's because you don't have the strength yourself." Speaking of this, he put a sarcastic look on his face: "We can only go with the trend and let you leave quickly." ”

“…… The rivers and lakes will not let you go. In the encirclement that gradually formed, the blonde girl, who still did not move, gritted her teeth and replied: "Even if there is no fool, it will not be your turn to call the shots in the whole of Tania." ”

"Ha, that's none of your business with losers." The corners of his mouth rose more and more obviously, and Lou Tingyu pointed forward the blade of the sword that he threw away: "And do you think the time for Jianghu to take care of these trivial matters now?" They're probably too busy to take care of themselves now. ”

"Because of the imminent shock in the professional world."

The sound of buzzing sword qi then drowned out Lou Tingyu's last words, and at the same time, all the countless swords that were slashed down were sent to Mengzhu's face, and the little girl who had already prepared disappeared in place with a straight line of golden light, and the next moment appeared in front of one of the guards in the encirclement. The piercing sound then echoed under the night sky with the powerful attack of Mengzhu's slash, and the miserable appearance of the unlucky ghost's chest sunken flew out of the distance of the encirclement, and the tip of the sword with a screaming sound was close to the ears of the little girl who had just stopped, and at the same time there was a voice belonging to Lou Tingyu laughing: "It's useless!" We have long understood the characteristics of your battles! The strongest blow you can unleash is this slash after an instant acceleration, and then there's no threat hahahahaha-"

The severed golden hair quickly swayed down in the air, but the head that followed was not taken off by the swordsman's slash, and the petite body that had already fallen forward was also wrapped in acceleration that had not completely disappeared, and flashed a pleasing tumbling into the gap in the smashed encirclement, and then threw out two whirling sword lights with the raised blades of grass: "Whirling slash!" ”

"Leap Strike!"

"Spiral Spike!"

Spun around, leaping up like a spring, bending her body to dodge the sword slashes of the other two soldiers, and then the large loop propped up on the back of the other enemy—like an elf leaping in the night, highlighting the little girl in this besieged land in the chaos of countless battles that surrounded her, and the desperate back of the sword brushed by the sword again and again, and then with the metal brilliance that swung out, stubbornly galloped between the slits of the sword, dancing in the center of the battlefield where there was only one of her own surviving members. His gaze met the focused eyes of the little girl who happened to pass by his field of vision for a few moments, Lou Tingyu's face also changed from the original relaxed to a much more serious, and the slowly approaching pace was followed by a large number of soldiers who followed, squeezing Mengzhu's already small living space: "......"

"Drink!"

As if seeking a fleeting opportunity, he suddenly let out a loud shout, and then the sword that suddenly slashed out also took his suddenly wide eyes, and accurately passed through the light curtain intertwined with countless sword blade trajectories and dagger peaks: "Falling Rain Sword!" ”

The sound of the cloth being torn then appeared in everyone's ears, it was the sound of the little girl who was still dancing when she dodged the tip of this sword with a slight movement, and the leather armor cut by the fine sword qi infused on the tip of the sword then flew into pieces in the sky in her wanton swing, and stabbed the tip of the dagger back to the front of Lou Tingyu's neck with the tip of the dagger that followed the trend: "Reverse stabbing attack-"

The imaginary splatters of blood did not appear at the end of Mengzhu's incomparably perfect counterattack, and at the same time, there was a bright red metallic glow that had just reached the surface of the skin on her neck, and a powerful arrow flew out of nowhere like a straight bullet through the blonde girl's shoulder, sending her body and the dagger in her hand into the distance of the night. A large amount of blood came out of his mouth, and Mengzhu, who rolled out of the grass for a long distance, slowly turned over his scarred body after a long time, and the sharp pain that gradually became clear then also changed into an equally clear vision along the spread of the penetrating wound, and the figure of the large number of guards who gradually came and the face of Lou Tingyu looking down on him were included in his eyes: "Can ...... Evil ......"

"I'm going to take it back, because you seem to have grown into a great fighter."

Holding the side of his neck that was almost punctured with his hand, Lou Tingyu slowly removed the palpitating look on his face: "If it weren't for the help of a master, I'm afraid I would be embarrassed today." ”

"Bow ...... Arrow...... The blood that spread red ...... the surrounding land, and Mengzhu, who no longer continued to struggle, slowly moved the focus of his gaze to the brilliant starry sky above his head: "Really...... Be...... It's a pity ......"

"Growth...... Is it so? ”

She ignored the sound of the sword falling again and Lou Tingyu's gradually blurred voice, and then the muttered words disappeared into the consciousness that was about to sink into the depths of darkness: "Yes, count...... Get up ......"

"Already...... It's been half a year. ”

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

"It's been so long, do you have to wait?"

On the morning of March 9, 796 in the New Calendar, a group of players sitting in the corner of a dilapidated house on Central Avenue looked at each other and asked in a listless voice, "Do we want to leave today?" ”

"Don't worry, wait until you get back."

Pressing back the ugly face of Asahi Dongsheng's hanging eyes, Duan Qing, who was sitting at the table, replied helplessly: "You are not unclear about the chaos outside now, and it is very difficult to make a completely correct decision now." ”

"It's not difficult to say it's difficult, as long as the four of us ...... Uh no, it's enough for five people to be able to make a collective decision. Still wiping his dark shield, Gedmayne, who was sitting in the corner, suggested in a low voice: "It's the responsibility of everyone to bear it together, and everyone can enjoy the benefits of choosing the right one—isn't that a very reasonable thing?" ”

"That's right, but ......" Duan Qing, who had a hesitant expression on his face, then scratched his head: "It's not that I'm arrogant, but our every move now involves too many people and things." ”

"I don't bother to care how much you've done behind your backs, I just want to know what we should do next."

Waving his hand, Gedmayne withdrew the roll of his eyes: "Since the elder is not here, I will listen to your opinions first...... Silly day, do you want to go or don't want to go? ”

"Who are you calling stupid—"

The violent figure appeared in the center of the broken sky for a moment, and then fell again with the gloomy expression of the rising sun: "Forget it, I can't beat you...... If you want me to say it, I don't want to care about the life or death of those people, anyway, His Royal Highness the prince treated us badly before, and it has nothing to do with us where he died. ”

"So you don't want to go?" So Gedmayne turned his head lightly: "What about you?" New to the new arrival? ”

"Ning Lan, everything is up to everyone." Ning Lan, who was standing on the side with a tea tray, tilted her smiling face when she heard the voice: "Where everyone is going, Ning Lan will follow." ”

"Abstaining...... Alas. ”

Sighing slightly, Gedmayne pursed his mouth: "Originally, five votes was a good number, but now it is one vote less...... If a tie is formed in the end, wouldn't it be a waste of time? ”

"I understand that you want to arrange the mood for everyone in advance, but this kind of voting often ends up being useless." Duan Qing smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "The current situation is really too unstable, and mutation is simply a matter of minutes, not to mention that we are still a resolute president on our heads, and there are ...... Not. ”

"You don't look like someone who wants to be part of the investigation team." He blinked his eyes, then looked at Gedmane's still unchanged face, "Why are you still asking here?" ”

"Of course, I want to get everyone's approval first." Gedmane returned with the same wry smile: "Or wait until our stubborn president returns—"

"I decided."

Before the shield warrior could finish speaking, the white light belonging to the player's line flooded a corner of the door of the broken house, and the white-haired woman named Xue Lingphantom Ice then walked in with a sassy heroic posture, and then slapped a rose-colored envelope in her hand on the table: "This commission ......"

"Let's do that." 8)
