"That's it! They're just playing us like monkeys! ”

"To be precise, when the gunman, although there is no difference between the two statements......"

"Are the NPCs in the free world so good at learning now? Do you really think we're embarrassed to do anything to them? ”

"Kill them! Kill them! The prince is amazing, huh? It's not a one-size-fits-all affair! ”

The ins and outs of this incident in Tanzanian City were quickly revealed in the real world by an unknown player, and then quickly spread in the gossip discussion between the players, who were first surprised by the collision and dumping between the Imperial Power and the Mage Council, and then began to be indignant at the role played by the players in this incident, regardless of the possible false missions and false information, The fact that the group secretly colluded with His Royal Highness was enough for this group of people to criticize, and in their eyes, how could the "adventurers" who had been constantly obtaining resources from the game world deign to be the wronged leaders of the aborigines of the free world?

The suggestion to ask the three or two guilds concerned to ask the prince of the empire for an explanation gradually began to become popular, and finally became a trend with the official appearance of the Tanzania City Adventurers Association, but none of the three or two guilds called the parties wanted to stand up in the end.

"What? We? We don't know anything. ”

In a certain alley near the central square of Tanzania City, the fat figure belonging to Xingluo fries was stopped in the middle of the road by several players: "We just ran to the east gate with the Imperial Army to be the bodyguards of His Royal Highness the Prince, and then stayed near the temporary high platform until His Royal Highness repelled the group of attackers and finally re-attacked the city, and our people were there and did not leave." ”

"We don't even know what the reason for all this is, how do you let us tell His Royal Highness?" He spread out his innocent hands: "You can't let us say that the weather was bad that day, so you have to be responsible for something like that, right?" ”

"What promise did His Royal Highness promise you?" One of the besieged players hurriedly asked, "When you first accepted the mission commissioned by the Adventurer's Guild, what was the final mission reward?" ”

"Do you think I'll answer that kind of question?" Xingluo fries looked at the man with a foolish gaze: "This is a confidentiality treaty involving the Adventurers' Association, not to mention that the client is still a big man like His Royal Highness......

"Even if I don't want those mission rewards, I don't dare to offend the imperial family of the empire easily."

The same statement also appeared among the several members who belonged to the Beast and Bird Alliance and still remained in Tanzania, but they were obviously outsiders, and they were treated less kindly here than Xingluo Griffin, but with their status as guests of His Royal Highness the Prince, no one dared to do anything to them at this time - with the glorious image that he had finally established in the battle of Tanzania, the prestige of His Royal Highness Prince Chris reached a unique height in Tanzania City for a while, Even the city guards, who were not very attached to the Imperial City Guards, were dormant in the rising crowds of His Royal Highness the Prince at this time with the attitude of temporarily avoiding their peaks.

What's more, those imperial nobles who had been imprisoned in the East City Gate before and had just been released back into their respective homes at this time.

"Abominable Imperial Prince! How dare he deceive us! ”

"I had long thought that he would use tricks against our nobles, but I didn't expect him to use such despicable means!"

"So the so-called greeting of the noble group that day was all under the guise of that Chris's child, right? They're trying to create the illusion of an attack to keep us there, right? ”

"But we don't have evidence, what's the use of saying so much? As the other party...... Even if he put the argument in front of the Lion Emperor, he would probably only favor his own son. ”

"Do you have any good advice?"

The garden atrium located in the palace of the city lord of Tanzania did not seem to have been affected by the previous war, and still maintained the original beautiful and natural garden scene, but the city lord of Romlia and Luxer Hangu, who were sitting here to discuss, did not have a relaxed expression on their faces as before: "A way to turn back the situation at this time?" ”

"I and those adventurers under my command can be regarded as the losers of this battle."

Lowering his head slightly, Hank, who was known as Luxe, pinched his beard and replied, "Now that the situation has completely turned to His Royal Highness's side, if you want to solve this situation, you need to make more efforts than half a bit. ”

“…… Damn it. ”

Slamming his fist the stone table in front of him, the face of the city lord of Romlia gradually turned iron: "When His Royal Highness came to Tanzanian City, I should have discovered his ambition!" I didn't expect him to not only move so much, but also dare to attack the great magician of the Mage Council! ”

"The flaws in the Violet Tower are naturally their own fault." Lord Luxer's face didn't seem to look as good as it seemed in the past: "But His Royal Highness, who knew about this secret for a long time, finally set up such a big game, which was not expected by any of us." ”

"You mean ......"

"It's better to protect yourself now."

Glancing at the old city lord on the other side, Lord Luxor, who was dressed in a suit, took a deep breath: "His Royal Highness is young and vigorous and has been deeply influenced by the Lion Emperor for many years, he must want to take advantage of the opportunity of his mission to show his strength, since he has taken the first step of success in this city, then he will not easily let go of these opportunities he has just created." ”

"In the coming time, I'm afraid it's not just the Violet Tower that will be unlucky." He clenched his fists: "General Steele's Third Garrison, or our local aristocratic forces in Tanzanian City, or even you and me—we may all be targeted by each other." ”

“…… That Chris. ”

With this sentence muttered out of his mouth, the city lord gritted his teeth in hatred: "Then what should we do?" ”

"Warn the other nobles to be careful lately."

Picking up a glass of water in front of him, Lord Luxer said indifferently: "Those who have a handle should hurry up and cover up, and those who don't have a handle have slept a little bit in the recent past, don't talk casually, and don't go outside to cause trouble." ”

"If we can't send His Royal Highness the prince away, then we will have to lead the water to the east." His voice immediately became low: "The Imperial Army, the noble regiment that has not yet arrived, and even the adventurers, can be the object of blame. ”

"Adventurers?" The voice of the city lord of Romlia became much brighter: "Is it okay for adventurers?" They're not—"

"I wouldn't have said that until yesterday's incident."

The corners of his mouth tugged up slightly, and Luxer Hangu's smile became much stranger: "But now ......"

"Anything is possible."

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

"Ha-ah, boss, have another drink!"

"Is it still Ice Vein?"

"Of course, this is the time to drink such wine! Hahaha! ”

"Shenghui 200 gold coins, money and wine are clear, and no credit will be given."

The sound of wine glasses colliding along the dilapidated and greasy bar swayed forward, and finally disappeared on the other side of the bar with the bright glow left by the two platinum coins that cut through the air, Duan Qing, who slowly picked up a blue wine glass with ice cubes, then laughed and waved his hand in the direction where Paul was, and then turned his gaze back to the tavern regular next to him: "Am I right, Uncle Peter?" ”

"That's right, that's right." The bearded middle-aged man known as Uncle Peter replied with a smile, "I recommend it well, right?" ”

"This ice-colored wine, and this feeling of being open to the heart...... Whew! ”

Snorted out a big sip of wine again, and Duan Qing, who poured a large sip of ice wine on his back, pointed to his chest: "As a magician and alchemist, the state that people like us need most is calm, calmness that can lift our spirits." ”

"Sure enough, it is a rumored mysterious adventurer, and the emotions he says are different from ordinary people." Peter smiled and patted the other party's shoulder: "I heard that ......"

"Yesterday's battle, you defeated the Violet Lord in the end, didn't you?"

Slapping the other party's hand turned into a hand grasping his shoulder, Uncle Peter, who claimed to be a blacksmith, leaned forward, and then lowered his question, which also made Duan Qing's expression slightly sober, but instead revealed another confused look: "What and what, how can such a ridiculous statement come out?" ”

"Don't underestimate every tavern on the Free Continent, it's always been very well informed." Sitting up straight again, Peter mysteriously continued: "No matter how much you try to hide it, this glorious deed of you and your companions will spread sooner or later. ”

“…… Well, I'm just a makeshift person. So Duan Qing had to show a wry smile: "The key is to rely on His Royal Highness the Prince and his royal guards, without the strength of that group of people, how can I deal with an opponent at the level of a great magician by myself......"

"So you admit it?" His eyes rolled back and forth twice, and Peter's voice became deeper and deeper: "You are the last hero who saved the city?" ”

"Don't don't, don't say that now." Hurriedly covering the other party's mouth, Duan Qing then began to cautiously look around here: "If His Royal Highness the Prince hears it, I may be as miserable as those adventurers." ”

"Don't worry, aren't those adventurers all people who cooperate with His Royal Highness the Prince? You see, those people are still alive and well in the end, and they didn't even hurt a single hair! ”

"That's just the appearance you saw, there are still a few people who have been punished, they shouldn't know the details of the plan, so they really did something to His Royal Highness at that time......

"What? And such a thing? ”

Like a drinker who was completely immersed in this atmosphere, Duan Qing, who was lying on the bar, then began to spread gossip, and then the small words echoed around the bar with the gradual spread of the wine, and there was inexplicable laughter between the two men from time to time: "So do you think that prince is really golden?" He actually ......"

"I've heard of this too, I heard that he went to Pink Lady for the night when he first came, but ......"

"What? Haven't been in it yet? Do you say ......"

"That's right, that's right, so now there are many vendors squatting near the City Lord's Mansion, claiming that the potions they sell are the best in the whole continent...... Ah! ”

There was a heavy blow to the back of the head, and one of the men who was talking to each other was then pressed to the bar in front of him by a hand that suddenly stretched out, and after a moment of intimate contact between his forehead and the bar, he let out a cry of pain very cooperatively, and then rubbed his head and got up: "Who-uh, yes, it's you." ”

"I've only been away for so long, and you're already on the loose like this?"

Standing behind the other party with her hands crossed, the woman named Xue Ling Phantom Ice then looked at Duan Qing's face with her eyebrows twisted: "What were you talking about just now, huh?" ”

"Uh, that one...... Ahahahaha! ”

Temporarily let out a few embarrassed laughs, Duan Qing, who glanced at the people around him, hurriedly took Xue Ling's hand and left the range of the bar: "It's all a topic between men, it's not suitable for you to know." ”

"Hmph, I'm too lazy to know."

Let out a cold snort angrily, and Xue Ling's phantom ice's gaze then fell on the list of team members and the status of the character displayed above the avatar: "You...... Are you okay? ”

"Isn't that good with me? At most, it's just two levels off. ”

"Really, there's nothing to hide from me?"

“…… Of course. ”

"You hesitated."

Hatefully pointed his jade onion-like finger on the other party's forehead, and Xue Lingphantom Bing, who was always a little uneasy in his heart, then warned Duan Qing: "I told you everything about me, if I find out that you have anything else to hide from me, I will, I will ...... I'll die for you! ”

"Okay, I'll definitely take a good look at it then...... Ouch! ”

Hurriedly withstood the palm that the other party waved down in anger, Duan Qing hurriedly put on a flattering look before his cheek was about to suffer: "Don't make trouble, don't make trouble, I've been waiting for you here for almost a day before you go online." ”

"It's not like you have to let me rest a little longer." Xue Ling's phantom ice face, who put down his palm, was slightly red: "I didn't expect me to sleep for so long......"

"As long as the spirit recovers." Duan Qing smiled and shook his head: "Anyway, no matter how you compare, you will be the one with the higher level among the two of us." ”

"If you don't win, it's not fun to win."

gave the other party a roll of the eyes, and Xue Lingphantom Ice then pulled down his game menu: "Okay, since you've rested enough......"

"According to the plan agreed upon, we should go to that place next, right?"
