966 Silent provocation
"I seem to have come at the right time."
"Because you're more famous, I don't think either of them dares to mess with you......"
"I haven't seen you for two days, and your complexion looks like you've gotten a lot better."
"Thank you for the compliment...... Ah, by the way, I'm having a treat, would you like a drink? β
Like a scavenger who separated the crowd, he walked in front of Duan Qing with a mature and charming smile that slightly brushed away the long blue hair, and squeezed all the people around him to the side, but in the inadvertent flow, it suddenly fell on the chest of the gray magic robe that Duan Qing was wearing: "This is ...... The emblem of the party? β
"That's right, we formed an adventure party."
As if declaring his sovereignty, Xue Lingphantom Ice on the side stretched out his hand and pulled Duan Qing's shoulder: "We are now a member of the guild." β
ββ¦β¦β
The unnaturalness that was slightly revealed lightly crossed his face, and he officially sat down on the bar seat opposite Duan Qing: "It looks like a very good sign...... What about the name? β
"Qingling."
Duan Qing, who let out a few deliberate coughs and cleared his throat, replied in a low voice, "Qingling Adventure Groupβhow does this name feel?" β
ββ¦β¦ Very nice to hear. β
The gaze wandered back and forth between the faces of the two people for a long time, and the fingers of the woman named Liuyu Liuyu behind her back twisted slightly: "I just didn't expect that in this era, there would be people who choose to establish a guild near Tanzanian City......"
"Looks like you're pretty familiar with what's going on around here." Duan Qing raised his hand holding the wine: "Did you investigate it in advance?" β
"Of course, I have a good understanding of the nearby terrain and the cultural background of the province of Santlius." Yu Liuyu chuckled and raised her eyebrows: "Your adventure group's trial mission must have suffered a lot of setbacks, right?" β
"Fortunately, there were more accidents in the middle." Duan Qing used the action of drinking to hide his expression: "Fortunately, the final process is not bad, and the association has also recognized the results of our trial......
"So you've been busy with the adventure group trials for the past two days?"
"Probably, it sounds unlikely, but it did take us only two days to get the dragon done."
"These two weapons you have with you are the result of this mission?"
"A little bit of small profit, not enough to worry about, in the face of the success of our adventure group's trial, this little loot is nothing."
"No wonder I haven't been able to find your people for the past two days......"
The chuckling expression seemed to be a little closer to Duan Qing, and he put one of his arms between the slowly curled up legs: "It turned out that he went out to have a private party with us behind his back." β
"You've been looking for us?" Duan Qing, who was embarrassed, pulled back, and this time it was Xue Lingphantom Bing, who was still holding the magician's arm, who asked out loud: "What do you want to do?" β
"I still have some questions of interest that I want to ask." With one hand in front of his knee, he stretched his arm to the side slightly: "But now...... I have something I'm more interested in. β
"Since your guild has just been established, there shouldn't be enough manpower right now, right?" In the feminine charm that suddenly bloomed like alcohol, her eyes smiled into a crooked crescent moon: "Are you interested in accepting me into the club?" β
It seemed that they didn't expect this sudden question, Duan Qing and Xue Lingphantom Bing, who were sitting opposite, all lost their voices for a while, and their expressions and eyes gradually became strange, as if they didn't expect that this woman who was as mature as a peach would suddenly say such a proposal. The sound of gasping cold air then faintly sounded around this strange air, accompanied by the wonderful expression on Duan Qing's face when his eyes were stretched out and he was secretly pinched by Xue Ling's phantom ice, and looking at all this, Liuyu then sighed softly in his heart, and straightened his waist like a water snake with a bright smile: "Just kidding, don't be so nervous, you don't look like the type that can be easily joined, let alone ......"
"I also have my guilds and teams to deal with."
She gestured towards the door of the tavern behind her, revealing the back of the sad and cold rain of the last days who were standing guard at the door at this time in front of Duan Qing: "How could I abandon them." β
"Don't do that, it's not good for my heart."
Enduring the pain that still came from his waist and abdomen, Duan Qing scratched his head with a dry smile: "You guys came here this time, it shouldn't be just to make a few jokes that are easy to be misunderstood, right?" β
"That's right."
Nodding slightly, the blue-haired whisper then subconsciously looked left and right at the tavern: "Although this place is not suitable for conversation, this kind of thing should not need to be kept secret, so ......"
"We've looked into the attack on the Crook outpost a little." She lowered her voice, "I've found something very interesting." β
As if in response to the change of topic, the smell of wine that originally surrounded this group of people also dissipated a little, and Duan Qing, whose eyes became clear, looked up at his face, and then gestured again to sip: "Yes...... A play arranged by themselves? β
"No, it's the people who participated in it who were very interesting."
"Oh?"
"Remember that archer?"
"What happened to that archer?"
"That archer isn't an NPC, he's a player."
Glancing at the noisy crowd in the noisy tavern, his eyebrows gradually lowered: "So we inquired about the more famous archers in the neighborhood, and then investigated their whereabouts a little......"
"Wait a minute, are you sure it was the player?" Like a little woman who refused to admit defeat, Xue Lingphantom Bing pulled Duan Qing and glared at her: "Although I didn't walk out of the door of that tavern at all, I listened to that fat man's description......"
"There should be no errors in their intelligence." The blue-haired female swordsman tapped her finger lightly on the other's wine glass: "But the problem is ...... They didn't see the archer hidden at the top of the barracks, did they? β
ββ¦β¦β
"Well, I'll not hide it from you."
There was a little more smile in his voice, and the whisper holding his chin looked at each other with a playful gaze and Duan Qing's helpless eyes: "Although that battle was very sudden, the Imperial people did get some news in advance, so the losses in that battle were not large, and ...... They also caught some live mouths. β
"What? And the captives? β
"They didn't get any useful information, but they did mention some of the adventurers who came to help."
Looking at Duan Qing and Xue Ling's Phantom Bing's gradually widening eyes, the blue-haired woman gestured forward with a gesture of shooting: "Look, leaving late still has the advantage of leaving late, right?" β
"Humph!" So Xue Lingphantom Bing, who was snuggling up to Duan Qing's side, let out a dissatisfied cold snort: "Then I really thank you." β
"Thank you or something, please don't tell me, we just used some means to get this information out."
Glancing at Duan Qing, he brushed the long hair behind him into the air: "As for the most critical partβ"
ββ¦β¦ Boss, give this lady a drink of Vutland too. β
Waving his hand at Paul, the tavern owner next to him, who had been indifferent, Duan Qing looked at the blue-haired woman who never said a word after hanging the long voice: "It's okay now, right?" β
ββ¦β¦ That man was called Lift the Crotch and was an old member of the Beast and Bird Alliance. β
A satisfied smile appeared on his face, and he slowly approached Duan Qing's whisper, and then ignored the warning that Xue Ling Phantom Ice had been giving with his eyes: "Many other members of the Beast and Bird Alliance seem to be lurking nearby, and there have been many reports of sightings so far. β
"I see, it looks like I'm going to do something." Duan Qing, who was pinching his chin, showed a groaning expression: "Are you planning to continue the attack...... Belch. β
He closed his mouth, and the focus of his gathered gaze fell on a finger that was suddenly handed to his lips, and the blue-haired female swordsman who shook her head slightly then pulled the corners of her mouth and motioned to the hall in the tavern quietly: "Don't say anything superfluous, this place is not the place to talk about this kind of topic." β
"Okay, let's change places."
Looking at the face of the mature female swordsman who reached out to take a glass of the same ice-blue wine, Duan Qing looked around the tavern: "How is the Adventurer Guild?" We can go to the second floor......"
"I'd rather go to your room for a while if I could."
Interrupting Duan Qing's words again, he took a sip of the ice-blue liquor worth a thousand gold coins, and then lowered his head with a coquettish smile in the scene of the snow spirit phantom ice eyes breathing fire beside him: "Okay, it's still just a joke, because I have other things to do, so I won't bother you anymore." β
ββ¦β¦ Yes? So Duan Qing blinked his eyes: "Then ...... you come over this time?"
The sound of the collision of light armor gradually came to Duan Qing's face with the blue-haired woman reaching forward, accompanied by the charm of the mature woman who drank the wine in an instant, and the soft fingers covering the armor then lightly nodded on Duan Qing's lips again, and then returned to the front of the whispering again. Her eyes curved into a line of smiles, and she blew lightly at the cloak woman with an unhappy face on the side, and then in the uneasy look that the two of them showed at the same time, she stuffed the ice blue wine that was still a lot of ice blue wine in her hand into Xue Ling's arms: "It is indeed a good wine." β
"I've given it back to you."
She stood, swaying slowly towards the tavern door with light steps, her long blue hair swirling with the creaking wooden door and disappeared into the night scene outside. The rest of the drinkers near the bar also seemed to be a little silent because of the departure of this ripe beauty, and at the same time there was a low humming sound that can only be found when talking with each other, but this sound was placed in Duan Qing's ears at this time, and there was no difference from the harsh tavern noise: "Who was that woman just now?" It's just ecstatic, isn't it? β
"It seems to be called a whisperer, and I heard that he is a very powerful person among adventurers."
"Amazing? Is the Lord of Violet as powerful? β
"I don't know if the Lord of Violets is powerful, but as beautiful as the Lord of Violet...... I can say for sure! Hahaha! β
"They seem to care more about you."
Looking at the more eyes that came over in the laughter, Xue Lingphantom Ice let out a slight breath: "Don't you have any ideas?" β
"That's up to me to ask you." Duan Qing pointed to the glass of blue wine that had been sipped in the other party's hand: "Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll die a bad death in a while." β
"I know what that woman means."
Not really angry as Duan Qing expected, Xue Lingphantom Bing lowered her eyebrows: "She is provoking me in this way, implying that my skills are not as strong as hers." β
"Uh...... Don't worry, you are inherently strong women who belong to different fields. Duan Qing, who didn't know what to say, finally persuaded and said, "Don't care too much about the eyes of that woman and others. β
"But I've really been of little help to you." The long white hair was slightly exposed, and Xue Ling's head also lowered: "I didn't do anything except complete the Adventure Group Trial Quest with you......"
"Don't be cranky, it's enough for you to be here."
Reaching out and touching the other party's head, Duan Qing then turned his smiling gaze to the other side of the bar: "In comparison, there is another point that I care about more. β
"What?"
"What does that woman know about us?"
Saying these meaningful words, the magician with a look of amazement in his eyes slowly turned around, and his gaze stayed for a moment on the other two confronting figures who had been squeezed aside by the momentum of the whispering for a moment, and then greeted the Taoist player in the reaction of John Cunner standing in place with a pensive face: "This Taoist friend is really extraordinary, and even a character like Whispering can easily deal with it." β
"I've only met once before, and the friendship is not as good as it seems." Duan Qing spread his hands meaninglessly: "As for why she favors me so much...... Well, I wonder if you know anything about it? β
"Ah, I'm right to ask this kind of question." Hong Shan Lao Dao clapped his hands and laughed: "I have dealt with that femme fatale a few times before I came here, and her vicious heart has reached the same level as her immortal beauty, so ......"
"I'm here to make a suggestion."
His body leaned forward slightly, and a mysterious expression appeared on his face: "I don't know if you have any intention of ......"
"Want to join the Imperial Army?"
