"You're the magician?"

Some time later, in the early morning, in the clearing at the southern entrance of Karlo Village, one of the several players who had gathered to prepare for an adventure stepped out of the crowd of simple teams and whispered to a certain gray-robed mage who had just walked out of the village, "Come to participate in the trial of the Flame Dragon Beast?" ”

"Ah, yes." Nodding a little lazily, the magician who came slowly wiped his slightly sleepy eyes: "I was kicked out of bed by that thief, so I ......"

"What about the thief?" The player's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his eyes fell on the back of the magician: "Is he coming?" ”

"He's back." The magician named Lin Yuan Broken Water waved his hand: "I blew him away, who let him disturb my sleep...... Well, I mean, he's got other things to do, and his teammates are still waiting for him at the castle in Tbilisi. ”

“…… Okay, Comrade Lazy Cat, isn't it just one less full-level tuba? ”

Patting the shoulder of the player whose body began to tremble, a player named Crystal Bun standing on the other side smiled and said, "If that person really comes, we won't be able to do it, after all, it's not a good thing to rely on a large number to bring a copy......"

"At least we can get some gear." The player named Lazy Cat shook his head: "With our current strength, it is really difficult to pass that dungeon unharmed, if we can arm ourselves first, we may be able to kill the No. 1 BOSS with our own ability in the future...... Belch. ”

Somewhat embarrassed, he looked at the smiling face of the magician in front of him, and then retracted the topic that sounded a little inappropriate: "Ahem...... In short, our task this time is to pass the dungeon trial, as long as we can get the proof of the final boss, we can come back and become a member of the Flame Thunder Beast...... Got it? ”

"Uh-huh." Lin Yuan, who was stared at by the other party, nodded his chin hurriedly: "Listen to you, I will do whatever you ask me to do." ”

"It's not for you to—forget it."

With a helpless face retracting his attitude of wanting to attack again, the lazy cat finally put on a patient appearance again: "Compared to joining that Flame Thunder Beast, I am a little more concerned about passing the dungeon itself, which requires our team to cooperate sincerely and give full play to each other's respective strengths and specialties." I hope you understand this, and don't follow us with a messy attitude, I'm riding with Crystal...... The two Crystal Bun brothers are not very good masters, and they can't help you at a critical moment. ”

"This trial is not a welfare event, you have to use this opportunity to prove yourself." He stared into the magician's eyes, and then his gaze gradually moved to the top of the other's head: "This ...... The water is cut off in the abyss, right? Strange name...... Forget it, what kind of magician are you? ”

"What...... What magician? ”

"Attributes, attributes!"

Some of them couldn't bear to raise their voices, and the lazy cat finally calmed down his sudden desire to go crazy with a few deep breaths: "Isn't every mage a mage a mage because of the awakening of the elements?" Haven't you ever been to a mage? ”

“…… I really didn't do it, because there doesn't seem to be a place in this village where I can do it. Lin Yuan shrugged helplessly: "But ...... If the attribute you are talking about is an elemental attribute, I should be an earth attribute. ”

"You didn't go to the mage?"

glanced at the other party with strange eyes, and the crystal bun, who had been standing next to him without speaking, finally made his voice again: "Speaking of which...... You are indeed a player who has not yet made it out of the Newbie Village. ”

"How did you become a magician?" The lazy cat, who was also aware of the anomaly, asked in a low voice, "Doesn't becoming a magician need to be identified and certified by the Mage Council?" ”

“…… Is such a step still needed? The expression on Lin Yuan's face seemed to become more bizarre: "I will do magic or something when I set up an account, and then an old man in the village pointed to me and said that my profession is magician, so I ...... Why, if you want to become a magician, you still need the certification of the Mage Council? ”

“…… No, you don't. ”

They retracted their eyes from each other, and the lazy cat took the lead in making their own judgment: "But look at it this way......"

"A magician who can cast magic without identification...... You might have good qualifications. He pinched his chin and looked at the newcomer from the novice village, and the light in his eyes became more and more intense: "I just don't know how to operate, and he is still an earth-based ......."

"What's wrong with the earth?"

"The elements of the four categories of earth, fire, water, and wind are elemental attributes that have been recognized by players since the establishment of the free world."

With a kind smile again, the crystal bun on the side took on the commentary work this time: "Although later, with the replacement of the game version and the discovery of game events, elements such as healing magic and void magic have also appeared in the player's field of vision, but in the traditional cognition, the four elements of earth, fire, water and wind are still the mainstream that current magician players choose to major in. The last League Cup and the rise of Vizard later led to another wave of mages, but most of the newly born mage players are still water, fire, and wind, because from the mining of the existing magic systems of these three systems, their attack, defense, survival and support functions are strong enough. ”

"It's not like earth-based magic...... The deviation is too serious. His voice gradually became slurred, and the eyes that looked at the gray-robed mage became regretful: "Although the defense is generally strong enough, the magic is very cumbersome to release, and the offensive means are pitiful......"

"Alright, don't talk about it."

Interrupting the other party's words lightly, the expressionless lazy cat then turned his head: "If we can get a magician to help us in the novice village, we have already gained a great advantage, and the only thing left is to form the team and get acquainted with each other by the way...... Who, the last person hasn't come over yet? ”

"Wait a minute, it'll be right away."

As if in response to his turn of the tongue, another player in a rudimentary cloth who was in the crowd at the entrance of the village screamed and crawled out: "That person said he would be there today...... Wait a little longer! ”

“…… Alas. ”

Sighing vigorously, the player named Lazy Cat finally collapsed his shoulder like a deflated ball: "You guys keep working hard and strive to be the worst ...... I've ever brought in my life."

"Don't be discouraged, lazy cat brother, it's just a while late." The player named Crystal Bun reassured, "Maybe it will be like ...... when you get there Uh, such a talented guy as the Broken Water Brothers......"

His voice gradually stagnated, and the movements of his hands slowly froze in mid-air with the passing of his gaze, and a little girl who cowered in front of them with a wooden stick appeared in their line of sight, and tentatively asked in the direction where the three people had gathered, "That ......"

"Excuse me, are you the Flame Drake Beast's adventure party?"

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

The Gemenan Jungle is a small jungle near the southwest of Kalo Village, and it is also one of the few terrain environments in the desolate Frey Empire that still maintains a green hue, and the lush trees that stand here also obscure half of the original vast empty view as far as the eye can see, and at the same time bring many unspeakable mysteries to this jungle - like the other villages around it, Karo Village is one of the few villages closest to the west of the Frey Empire, and further west will be an endless desert, and the Endless Sea, which is wider than that desert. Players who have visited there have found many unusual ruins in the desert, and have encountered many fish-like monsters and their formations, and some have even concluded that this desert was once located at the bottom of the Endless Sea based on the existence of these fish-man tribes who have been fighting against the Frey Empire. The colossal bones of many other mystical creatures from the depths of the sea have also appeared in incredible ways in the depths of these deserts, decorating the desert's unique history with fossils the size of several golf courses, but because of their dangerous and harsh environment and little use, the provinces of the westernmost empires have not continued to expand their territory westward even as far as Delhi.

As a result, this jungle, which can survive between the desert and the wasteland, has become the object of investigation for many players and pedants.

"To the northwest is the Lebilir Desert, which is only a few drizzles away."

Walking on the wasteland that was gradually approaching the jungle, the player named Lazy Cat explained in a low voice, "Although it is all secrets, no one wants to go in that direction even half a mile further, and considering the strength of our current team in the average novice village, I would advise you not to continue to go in that direction...... Feed! That's you! ”

"Huh? Oh...... Sorry sorry I ...... carelessly"

"If you follow us, will you get lost too? How bad is your labyrinth? Alistair! Take care of this kid you brought! ”

"No problem, Captain, sorry Captain!"

"It's really ......"

Looking at the two players who were hiding at the back of the team, the lazy cat holding his forehead sighed vigorously: "Where did you just go...... Oh yes, the southwest side of this jungle should be close to the sea, anyway, that's what people who have been there say, and the south side is adjacent to the province of Santeleus, which I heard is also a half-dead place......"

"Don't use such heartless words casually." The crystal bun on the side immediately interrupted the other party's words: "At least that ruin is said to be very rich, although there seems to be a little rumor recently......"

"If it weren't for the proximity to the Santerius ruins, we wouldn't be as lively as we are now." The lazy cat gritted his teeth: "Look at the present...... What kind of bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods are running over? ”

"Is it okay to be reasonable? These are just newbies. Turning around helplessly, Crystal Bun pointed in the direction of the three players behind him: "They...... Belch. ”

"They just aren't familiar with the game yet."

Ordinary cloth clothes, ordinary costumes, ordinary looks, and wooden sticks that can be picked up on the side of the road - although the last player member who ran out of Carlo Village was a girl, neither her image nor temperament left a good impression in front of the lazy cat and the crystal bun, not to mention the game experience that was whiter than a blank sheet of paper, and the mysterious physique that would get lost at every turn. Crystal Bun, who had tried to teach her some basic game skills, later gave up this naïve idea, and instead let Alast, who had introduced the clumsy girl before, be responsible for holding the cumbersome girl at the back of the line, but even so, the girl's inexplicable off-line behavior and the sound of falling on the ground from time to time have been hitting the nerves and will of the two leaders: "...... I feel like I'm hopeless again this time. ”

"Don't give up, this distribution is good enough, think about those three best teammates last time...... I still don't even understand how we ended up dying and coming back. ”

“…… X's I kind of know why those people want to give me such a job that looks no different from pensioning, it turns out that they are simply embarrassed for me to be lazy, and continue with this momentum...... I'm afraid that Lao Tzu will be killed by this group of new people for three years. ”

"At least we've experimented with this route many times, and at least we have a magician, though this guy doesn't seem to be very good at communicating...... Uh, you, when did you come over? ”

The whispers of walking side by side were then interrupted by the figure that appeared behind them at some point, and the two people who turned around in unison looked at the smiling face of the gray-robed magician in front of them, who then tilted his body slightly, and turned to point in an empty direction at the back of the group: "Those two people...... They were gone again. ”

"Gone again? How is it so powerful? This is a vast wasteland as far as the eye can see! What kind of posture do they use to walk? ”

The sound of yelling and yelling was then accompanied by the almost frantic movements of the lazy cat and moved back in the direction where the team came, leaving the figures of the crystal bun and the Lin Yuan water cut off in front for a while, and the magician who stopped in place then flicked his sleeve and looked at the dumbfounded face of the player next to him with a faint smile: "That...... You should have talked about it, right? ”

“…… Well? ”

"I haven't figured out why I'm here to work with you guys, but ......"

Scratching his head, Lin Yuan broke the water and then showed a rather embarrassed expression: "Are you ......?"

"Would it be better to give us a brief introduction to our mission?"
