"Uh...... What's going on here, please? ”

The sight of passing players and city residents stopping to watch gradually submerged the flowers on the side of the road, and then gradually dispersed in the noise and shouting in the sky, and as one of the people who were closer, Duan Qing, who was looking at the reaction of the crowd, gradually showed some doubts and puzzlements on his face: "...... just now"

"Did a woman hide here just now?"

The arrogant shouting with ruffians then echoed in Duan Qing's ears, and at the same time, there was also the scene of four or five people gradually rushing from the side of the street: "She ate my 'Pound Iron Fist', it is absolutely impossible to run too far...... Hey, you! ”

"Have you seen a woman hiding here?"

I see, is this kind of drama again?

Such a thought flashed in his heart, and Duan Qing, who tugged at the corners of his mouth, then shook his head: "I, that ...... I didn't see it. ”

"Didn't see that?"

Glancing up and down at Duan Qingpu's ordinary gray magic robe that had not yet left, the person in the lead who was wearing a dress and looked like an innkeeper then took his eyes off him: "Don't try to shield that guy, she must be around here!" You two, go take a look at the grass! ”

"Yes."

Looking at the figures of two of the several subordinates who had been following the man and gradually approaching the flowers, Duan Qing involuntarily took two steps forward: "Uh...... I did see a guy just now, and she swooped out in front of me......"

"Didn't you just say you didn't see it? How do you see it again now? The man in the dress turned to look at Duan Qing, and a strange smile gradually appeared on his face: "Tsk, another victim...... Search for me! ”

A few thugs like wolves and tigers then instantly disappeared into the flowers in front of them, and soon a woman was found under the wooden sign with the name of the street written on it, and the scream that belonged to women was also accompanied by the entanglement between the three or two big men and the slender figure, echoing in this lively street. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Duan Qing, who had been struggling in his heart for a long time, finally decided to step forward to intervene in this confrontation where the balance of power was not balanced at all, but a voice belonging to the player suddenly sounded behind him, stopping his steps: "Don't make trouble, she is a frequent visitor to this place." ”

“…… Do you know her? ”

Looking at the player named Yiyun Yanyu, Duan Qing, who had stopped, asked with a little confusion: "This big brother, can you explain?" ”

"It's a task that refreshes here a lot."

Swinging the brim of his hat slightly, the swordsman player with a hat on his head and a cloak then pointed his finger at the figure of the woman who was still struggling in front of her: "She is an amnesiac woman who lives in Violet, and she seems to have a little mental problem, and she usually sneaks out while people are not paying attention, and hangs around this street and the surrounding area." The citizens of Tanzania may be able to accept a woman who is not good-looking, silent, wandering the streets, but they can't tolerate this guy eating and drinking everywhere, and when she is chased everywhere and even caught by the shopkeepers, she has no choice but to ask for help from the good players who pass by. ”

"At first, players thought it was a hidden questline, a great opportunity to get close to the NPC beauties in the game." Speaking of this, he sighed helplessly: "But after they help the woman pay for her meal and send her back to the Violet Tower, all they can get is a part of the bounty that the Violet magicians use to thank them." ”

"Violet's magician?" Duan Qing asked with a little curiosity, "What kind of people are they?" ”

"It's a group of magicians affiliated with the Mage Council, that's all." A cloud of smoke and rain glanced at Duan Qing with a strange gaze: "The Mage Council also has branches in many parts of the empire, and the Violet Tower is just the name of this place, is there any problem?" ”

"Oh no, nothing."

Looking at the slender figure that had been pulled out by the group of thugs, Duan Qing then gestured forward again: "What about the identity of this woman?" ”

"No one knows what her identity is, and the Mage Council hasn't figured it out."

Skimming his shoulders, the man in the hat replied in a low voice: "Violet's mage is reluctant to reveal her background, and the players who went to hand in the quest have never asked for any information from the amnesiac woman. ”

“……”

Looking at the figure of the woman who was still in a messy shawl and disheveled clothes and still struggling in the hands of the thugs, Duan Qing frowned, and the original idea of stepping forward to help gradually retracted to the place where he was standing with the introduction of the player next to him: "That is to say...... It's just a normal money farming task, right? ”

"At least for now." Yiyu replied with a smile: "And now I have lost money." ”

“…… Yes? ”

"The NPCs in the city also evolve."

Pointing to the innkeeper in a dress who gradually stepped forward, he gestured to the surroundings here: "Everyone knows that she is a person in the Violet Tower, and her meal expenses will definitely be reimbursed. The most exaggerated time was last month, when a player who came to the rescue was forced to ask for 2,000 gold coins for dinner, 2,000 gold coins! Not to mention eating, it is more than enough to buy a good weapon and equipment. ”

"What kind of meal is worth two thousand gold coins?" Duan Qing also let out an exaggerated cry: "Is there really anyone who will give it?" ”

"In the end, it was given by the Mage Council."

Pointing to the tower not far away again, he shook his head with a smile: "The people who are most short of money in the world are magicians, and the people who are the least short of money are also magicians......

"Also, that is to say......"

"That's right, that's what you're dealing with now."

Pointing to the girl who was gradually being pulled by the innkeeper's hair, she shook her head and slowly left towards the front of the street: "Do you want to be opened by the shopkeeper Lion and feel the characteristic daily life of our Tanzanian City?" Unless you're rich, ......."

"I'd better advise you to leave quickly."

The sound of struggle and screams that still resounded echoed in the hustle and bustle of the street, and the crowd of people in the past gradually regained its calm with the departure of the swordsman with the hat, and Duan Qing, who was still standing in place, also looked at the scene in front of him, and only after a while did he smile wryly and shook his head: "Although it is still very old-fashioned......

"But I didn't expect it to be like this."

“…… Why, finally someone is willing to be the big boss this time? ”

Looking at the figure of the gray-robed magician who gradually came forward, the innkeeper, who had been stopping in place with four or five thugs, smiled and spoke: "Don't you be a passerby who talks casually anymore?" ”

"She was running so fast that I didn't even see it." Duan Qing shook his head: "So what I said is the truth." ”

"I care so much about you." The innkeeper angrily adjusted his dress: "Do you want to pay for this woman?" ”

"I'm curious, why don't you just send her back to Violet?"

Without directly answering the other party's question, there was not the slightest fear on the face of the thin magician who was opposite the four or five big men: "Wouldn't it be safer to ask those magicians of the Mage Council directly for money?" ”

"People who steal food and don't pay for their meals and run around deserve the punishment they deserve." The boss refused with a stern face: "I will drag this woman back and discipline her more, so that she will never make such a mistake that insults the image of Tanzanian City in the future." ”

"I can understand it as...... Is this one of the chips that you want to ask for sky-high prices? Duan Qing, who patted his head, sighed helplessly: "Forget it, let's quote directly." ”

“…… Do you really care about this? The boss finally looked Duan Qing up and down with straight eyes: "Can you afford it?" ”

"I'm an alchemist."

Duan Qing, who patted his chest quite proudly and ignored some of the strange eyes handed over to him, showed a confident expression: "Does the alchemist know? You can rest assured that money is such a thing. ”

"So...... Eight hundred gold coins. ”

There was a slight pause in his words, and the store manager then quoted a number: "Plus the cost of damage, the cost of lost work, and my employment fee...... If you want to save this woman, you must pay me at least 800 gold coins. ”

“…… Good. ”

His eyes stayed on the woman's body for a moment, and Duan Qing then nodded his head: "Deal." ”

"Ha, this guest is really cheerful...... Ah no, a courteous nobleman. ”

Looking at the eight shiny platinum coins that the other party then took out from his pocket, the store manager with a serious expression immediately smiled: "I am the owner of the 'Pound Hotel' in Tanzania City, if you need it in the future, you are welcome to visit our store." ”

"I'll talk about it later when I have a chance."

Walking in two steps in front of the woman who had been let go, Duan Qing's gaze began to scan back and forth over the woman's face covered by the shawl's messy hair: "It's to send her to the Violet Tower in front, right?" ”

"Huh? Yes...... Yes. Looking at the strange reaction shown by the other party, the innkeeper replied hesitantly: "Don't worry, the people of the Mage Council should compensate you for your losses, but the extra information ......."

"I have one last question."

Retracting his eyes that were constantly confirming, Duan Qing, who straightened up, asked in a low voice, "Do you know her name?" ”

"Uh...... I've only heard people from the Mage Council call her name. The boss groaned for a while, then replied thoughtfully, "It seems ......."

"Looks like it's called Kaisha, right?"

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

"Thank you for your help, adventurer."

Some time later, in the middle of Violet Avenue, in front of the Violet Tower, a magician in a gorgeous purple-black robe standing at the gate pushed open the closed door and nodded at Duan Qing: "Thank you for sending her back again." “

"Uh, that ......"

"Eight hundred gold coins of thanks, we will send it to you soon."

The voice was still full of politeness, but the magician who was sending Duan Qing out of here still had an expressionless face on his face: "You live on the side of the 'Wind Eagle', right?" ”

"You, how do you know?"

"The Mage Council will remember your kindness."

Without answering the other man's question, the magician then closed the iron door in front of him: "May the power of the elements protect your future path." ”

"Wait a minute, I'm not done yet, wait-"

Bang.

The heavy sound of the iron door then completely separated the line of sight between Duan Qing and the magician, and at the same time blocked the figure of "Kaisha" standing in front of the tower from Duan Qing's field of vision, and Duan Qing, who was staring in that direction, then took two steps back helplessly, and at the same time sighed with a long sigh: "What happened today." ”

"It's always a time like this to be turned away."

He raised his head and looked at the tall stone tower in front of him, the lilac tower gradually extending into the sunny blue sky as his vision extended. The magic runes that were like nothing with the horizontal magic circles that were constantly wrapping around this tower, kept rotating in the established circular track, and the buzzing sound that belonged to magic was also accompanied by Duan Qing's spiritual sense, and continued to drum along those magic lines towards the periphery with a majestic momentum like a sea - as the distance of this tower narrowed, the noise that had been filling Violet Street became less and less as the street vendors became less and less, as if they were afraid of this tower, except for passing by quickly, All that remained was to glance quietly at the magicians who had entered and exited the tower, some of them hurriedly, some of them laughing and laughing into the strangely shaped magic huts on the other side of the tower, and the owner of the magic house in gorgeous clothes appeared at the door of the hut from time to time, greeting the gold lord of these towers with unacceptable enthusiasm.

Of course, there are a few players who come and go.

"Boss, I need to be identified...... It's not a mage appraisal, it's an item appraisal! ”

"How much does this magic robe cost? What, 20,000 gold coins? Yes, can it be cheaper? ”

"How was the last time you left the magic gem here? It must have been sold, right? I need some cash right now, so ...... 10% fee? Are you here in a black shop? ”

"Return! I want to return it! That's right, it's the Cloud Song Staff! There is no role in manipulating the weather as you are talking about at all! ”

Seemingly...... It's not a place where ordinary people can come here.

"This brother ......"

A weak inquiry then sounded behind Duan Qing, pulling back his eyes that had been looking around those magic houses, and Duan Qing, who turned around, then looked at the player in front of him who was rubbing his hands, and pointed to his nose with a puzzled expression: "Call me?" ”

"Yes, yes, that's you." The player hurriedly nodded, "Are you ...... Magician, right? ”

"I am, what's wrong?"

"This ...... That ......"

Looking at the gray robe on Duan Qing's body, the player scratched his cheek: "May I ask ......?"

"Are you interested in going on an expedition together?"
