470 A new journey
"So that's why you're coming to me again?"
In the center of Tania's underground black market, President Hank, who was directing the transportation and guard arrangements, turned his head in surprise: "What do you think we are, the charitable foundation?" β
"Well, so many people have said it, you have to be a little ...... I didn't say it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Looking at the other party's increasingly strange face, Duan Qing stopped his words very simply: "...... So, don't you have anything to remind us? β
ββ¦β¦ What to prompt? β
"You who have sworn to rival the Shadow Society, don't you even know that we're going to Free City?" Duan Qing glared and replied, "The people who have been looking for me these days have mentioned this matter to me, as if the whole world already knew about it......
ββ¦β¦ Of course we know that. β
Still waving his commanding arms, Hank replied without looking back, "But...... From what I know of you, you don't need me to remind you of anything. β
"It's a lawless city." He whispered, "It's also the best place for you adventurers." β
ββ¦β¦ Say it like we're a bunch of bandits. β
Duan Qing said helplessly: "Although those who have been mixed up over there are ...... The style of the adventure group seems to be no different from what you said, but at least our main business is adventure, not some kind of robbership......"
"From what I've observed in Free City...... The way you appear has almost nothing to do with the profession of adventurer. β
As if to put an end to his work for the time being, Hank, with his hands behind his back, turned around: "But if you know them, then there will be no problem in this trip, with their old fritters leading you...... At least not to be stripped naked overnight. β
"The question is...... I don't necessarily know friends, but enemies. β
Inexplicably recalling a few old opponents in his mind, Duan Qing replied with a wry smile: "If possible, I still hope that you locals can help us, with your warrior family as a backer...... At least we won't be troubled by the Shadow Society, right? β
ββ¦β¦ Believe me, if you don't want to clash with the Shadows, don't have anything to do with our warrior house. β
Hank said lightly, and then raised his head: "We are an alliance of warriors on the free continent, and we are also a group of fighters who think highly of themselves, not only have a bad temper, but also like to solve problems with fists and feet...... In addition to dying on a battlefield is to fall with your back to the enemy. β
"Hey, I seem to get something." Duan Qing suddenly let out a low chuckle: "The concept is not in agreement...... That's why you came to Tania City. β
ββ¦β¦ We've moved closer and closer to the Shadow Society, but that's how we want to fight them. Hank replied in a low voice, "This is after my family was ruined and fled from Free City...... The final conclusion. β
"It is impossible for a person who will only sneak up on him from behind to achieve a convincing victory." His face darkened: "One day, I will make them understand this." β
ββ¦β¦ Did you just give up on Free City? As if sensing a trace of terrifying aura from the other party's words, Duan Qing hurriedly threw out another question: "Does your boss agree?" β
"Of course, the Free City still retains the Warrior's House, after all, this is one of the two major organizations on the continent." Hank gave him a strange look: "It should be the other members who will take over, maybe the more tactful one, such as Little York...... Anyway, it's none of my business, because their lives aren't going to be easy. β
ββ¦β¦ Because of you? β
"Yes, because of ...... My reason. β
The man dressed as a bartender took a few steps forward and came to Duan Qing's side: "During my time in Tania, I have seen a lot of new things, your previous performance...... Also very much to my liking. Even though you are always trying to bargain, and at this time you are still thinking about running to me for a favor, but the mission you dared to face death proves one thing. β
"Adventurers are not all lawless bastards, and there are heroes among them." Hank patted Duan Qing on the shoulder: "Just like you." β
"According to us risk-takers, it's often stupid to generalize." Duan Qing replied with a smile, "I want to...... On you, the truth will not change. β
ββ¦β¦ The warrior home of Tania will always be your ally, I can guarantee that. β
After staring at Duan Qing for a while, Hank pointed in the direction of the furnace: "Just take it as my atonement, the business cooperation between us will never be interrupted, the old black camel will be responsible for the specific matters, and the other ...... Regardless of your relationship with the Shadow Society, as long as we rule the underground black market, you will be free to use the Crucible...... These rewards shouldn't be bad, right? β
"If you're not afraid that I'll turn around and sell to Wiesel...... Duan Qing replied, "That's right, I just wanted to try my luck again." β
ββ¦β¦ Didn't the 20 pieces that lost money last time make you stop? β
"Otherwise, what are you doing with so many things in and out?"
Pointing to the surrounding goods, Duan Qing crossed Hank's body: "Wasn't the machete from before broken, I brought it here today, and I originally wanted to keep it for Master Flo to cultivate, but now ...... I think it's better to use it as a material. β
"Master Flo has disappeared since the fortress was lost, and there is no news of it now." Hank's voice came from behind: "From this point...... You've made the right choice. β
"You didn't expect me to be an experiment, did you?"
"Of course not, because someone has already done it."
Pointing to the inside of the furnace, Hank said to Duan Qing, who looked back at him with a puzzled look, "That one named Fantasy Dream...... He should be your friend, right? β
ββ¦β¦ Thanks for the reminder. β
Pursing his lips helplessly, Duan Qing walked into the glowing room, and then next to the pillar of light, he found the familiar figure of the man in the trench coat: "Could it be that you also committed a research disease?" Squatting here for days? β
ββ¦β¦ Go, go, I'm an authentic game digger. β
Turning his head to glance at the visitor, Phantom Dream immediately made a repelling motion: "Don't disturb my work, there are not many opportunities to observe this kind of thing up close......"
ββ¦β¦ Hey, you don't really know something amazing, do you? Duan Qing patted the other party's shoulder: "There is such a good thing, why don't you share it quickly?" β
"According to my previous research, this thing is called the Henaia Engine, I think I've said it before." Without looking back, Phantom Dream replied: "I can't say anything more now, and the only way to find out how to use it is the fusion path you once mentioned...... Get out of the way, don't get in my way. β
"Why don't you sit and listen to a lecture?" Duan Qing, who just wanted to sit on the ground, had no choice but to stand up again: "Such a big place, isn't it enough for you to wander around?" β
"Do you know how hard it took me to track down this thing?" Phantom Dream glared at his eyes: "I even mobilized all the members to monitor all the players who entered and exited the game uniform, and finally discovered the outflow of this countless strange equipment......"
"Damn, your members really listen to you?"
"Of course...... It's voluntary. β
Phantom Dream pursed his mouth: "The glory of dawn is not the original glory, it would be nice to have a few obedient people, I didn't even expect to be able to form a team to participate in the competition, let alone engage in this kind of large-scale surveillance...... What to watch? Look down on people? The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and no matter how many of us have no one, we are better than your broken six-man squad! β
"Yes, yes, yes." Duan Qing, who had a bright face, nodded hurriedly: "It's a pity that the result is a bit miserable, and in the end, we have to rely on us to find out here......"
"Get out."
A word full of air echoed in the circular hall, and then came the sound of jumping feet belonging to the dream: "I have never seen better luck than you, I found all the key points inexplicably, and finally took away all the benefits!" β
"Whereever, we just received a certificate of commendation from the speaker......"
"And what!?"
"Well, there's the Guild, the Underground Black Market, the Shadow Society's ......"
"What about the Mage Council?" Phantom Dream pointed at Duan Qing and said, "Don't think I don't know you've been to that library!" Did you still see the Great Magician? β
"Christine...... That's normal, after all, we're old friends. β
"Still an old friend? Are the people of Vizard going to be angry when they hear this? β
The trench-coat man snorted indignantly: "What about Rex? Isn't he an old friend of yours? β
"Well...... this"
An inexplicable silence permeated the circular hall with Duan Qing's silence, followed by a low sigh belonging to him: "That guy...... Friends, right? β
He reached into his arms, quietly took out a crystal clear gem, and then placed the stone with an emerald green glow in front of him.
γWind Stone (Epic)γ
[Dexterity +1, Intelligence +1]
[Wind element affinity. γ
[A gem that can store the wind element, and has many uses in the field of magic.] γ
[With the full blessing of a certain great magician, it has been filled with the power of the wind element at this time. γ
[Yes.] γ
"It's a gift he left me."
Looking at the straight eyes coming from the other side, Duan Qing explained in a low voice: "And before he left...... But this was never mentioned. β
ββ¦β¦ He's gone? Where did he go? β
"I don't know."
Looking at the surface of the seven-colored pillar of light that gradually fluctuated with the fluctuations of the gem, Duan Qing's voice also became distant: "But ......"
"In a few days, it's time for us to leave."
****************************
"Remember to be careful, don't cause trouble, don't attract hatred, and if you run into any trouble, remember to recite the name of our party......"
ββ¦β¦ How did you come up with the idea? I didn't even think of that. β
"Do you think there is anyone in this group besides me who cares about the future of the adventure group? Really...... Also, I remember that I got the place to go to the Adventurer's Guild to put up my name, because the Principality has officially handed over this commission to the Adventurer's Guild, so it's better to hand it over first......"
"The association really dares to hang out, isn't it afraid of being robbed by others?"
"That's why Felistone handed over the task to us as soon as possible! They don't make that kind of mistake......"
In the early morning of February 26, 795 in the new calendar, the figures of several adventurers appeared outside the crowd at the city gate with the separation of a certain convoy, and then with the chatter between a man and a little girl, they began the final preparations before departure: "The rating of our adventure group has been greatly improved, and taking this kind of large order is also in line with the regulations of the adventurer's association, and the relationship between Felistone and me is so good, you can rest assured of this." By the way, remember to send me messages often offline......"
ββ¦β¦ Okay, okay, got it. β
The helpless Duan Qing sighed and interrupted Mengzhu's advice: "Isn't it just that you gave up the opportunity to go, you don't need to become such a chicken woman?" β
"It's not for the sake of the team's overall situation!" The little girl snorted hatefully: "If only the few people who laugh at Hongchen are left, maybe they will make some rebellion!" β
"The evil boy in Jicheng has changed a lot, and now he should be able to be a good player." Duan Qing said with a smile: "Although he hasn't completed the task yet......
"I've never seen anyone so stupid!" Hearing this, the girl became even more angry: "I can't even earn a few gold coins back, how can I follow me in the future!" β
"The skills are all practiced." Duan Qing spread his hands: "He wasn't very good at fighting, but now he's become a lot more powerful, so give him a little more time and practice the method of survival...... Well, it's almost time, I'm gone. β
ββ¦β¦ I'll be back soon. β
"I know."
The man turned and boarded the carriage, then turned back and said, "By the way...... When Xiaoqian goes online, remember to tell her. β
"Say what?"
"Her mentor is still waiting for her."
The first rays of sunlight climbed out of the distant mountains, slowly poured over the heads of the convoy, and then spread out in the direction of the east as several people on the car disappeared and the surrounding cavalry cheered. The girl in the purple cloak looked at her silently for a moment, and then suddenly pricked up her ears, and the sound of an organ seemed to blow along the edge of the plain, and reached her.
"It's ......"
She turned her head and looked into the distance beyond the curved walls of Tania, where a faint black dot stood at the junction with the Andachel Mountains, playing the music that had been in the streets of the city for a long time with the graceful sound of the piano from an unimaginable distance.
"Your teardrops - turned into amber - "
"This parting - sealed forever - "
