1214 Order to return to the party
The eyes that suddenly became sharp slowly loosened again, and the attention that belonged to Duan Qing then fell on the visitor whose figure gradually became clearer, along with the gazes of several people around him: "I thought you really brought them over, it turned out to be you guy." β
"I'm glad you still remember me."
Sloppy flung the package in his hand to the ground, and the visitor who walked in by himself from outside the door then revealed his tattered hat in front of Duan Qing and the others: "It's been several days since the last incident, and I almost thought you had forgotten about me." β
"No, no, no, we still have a deep impression of your name." Hurriedly waving his hand, Duan Qing then exchanged a look with the others standing around him: "Why did you get it back alone?" What are you looking for us Qingling? β
"Your identity has been exposed by you, so naturally you have returned to your old job."
The nine-fingered beggar, who took off the hat from his head to cover the rain and revealed his face, then smiled at the others: "I came here with a mission this time, and the first thing I need to tell you is the first oneββ"
"Her Royal Highness Princess Rena."
He slapped the rain on his body, and his body gradually leaned against the corner of the barracks on the side: "The investigation team of the Frei Empire hopes that you will set off immediately and return to the team as soon as possible. β
"Returning to the team?" The atmosphere paused for a moment as the voices of several players in the room stalled, and then Gedmayne's muffled question rang out, "What do you mean?" Why did you decide to let us go back again? β
"I think there was some problem." The Nine-Fingered Divine Beggars smiled and tilted his head: "As far as I know, it seems that there is some ...... in the negotiations between the empire and the principality Obstacles need to be solved by professionals. β
"Are we professionals? It's pretty much the same to call us troublemakers. Sighing deeply, Duan Qing's face also showed a wry smile: "Her Royal Highness Princess Rena is probably also aware of this, so she left all of us in this place." β
"Troublemakers have been in trouble for a long time, and naturally they have become experts in solving troubles." The Nine-Fingered Beggar's face casually commented, "And ......"
"I don't think you've been mixing well in this fortress lately."
He pointed to the soldiers who were still in the fortress and kept fighting the water and fire, and winked at Duan Qing, who pursed his mouth and moved his gaze to the side a little unnaturally: "Nonsense, our prestige and status have improved a lot, and if we give us some time, we may be able to become close friends with Dusk." β
"If you become close friends with Dusk, your reputation in the Empire will plummet." The nine-fingered beggar's gaze also fell on Duan Qing's head: "Stepping on two boats often doesn't end well, and as a member of the empire, we still hope that you will not go astray and continue to stand firm." β
"Don't talk nonsense, we don't plan to apostasy." Waving his hand, Asahi Dongsheng then showed a disdainful voice: "But I'm very interested in why they sent you over to inform me of this matter, have they already dispelled their suspicions about you?" β
"That's right, after all, my secret mission is still to serve the Empire." The Nine-Fingered Beggars raised their eyebrows: "You are also the ones who know me well, and I don't need to continue to play the role of the Beggar Elder in front of you, and since I revealed my identity as a helper of the Shadows and met with the Empire frankly, it has become much easier for the Empire to gain trust." β
"I always feel that these Imperials have a deep trust in that Simon." Duan Qing also issued his own evaluation: "Or is it fear? Anyway, at the mention of that shadow, they cringe into timid rats. β
"Simon was a confidant of Emperor Dreynier, and one of the most patriotic defenders of the unity of the empire." The Nine-Fingered Divine Beggars smiled and shook his head: "As for the dark part...... I've been a member of them for a long time, but even I don't know how many people they are or what their organizational structure is. β
"I just need to complete my mission." He let out a deep sigh, then picked up the hat and walked towards the door again: "I hope you can clear up the previous misunderstanding, I personally don't care about those misunderstandings in the name, and I also hope you don't take it to heart." β
"I hope you will be able to follow the orders of the Empire honestly under our watch."
In the scene of several people looking at each other, this player who didn't know where to come and where to go then left the field of vision of Duan Qing and the others, and looking at the Qingling who disappeared into the rain curtain with their backs, they also let out a long sigh, and then the exclamation of Xue Lingphantom Ice also sounded in their ears: "It seems that he doesn't hold a grudge, we almost took him as an undercover agent this time." β
"There's nothing wrong with him being an undercover agent, but he's an undercover agent on the Empire's side." Duan Qing shook his head and replied in a low voice, "From this point of view, this guy's degree of identification with the camp must be much higher than ours. β
"So what are we going to do? Do you really want to listen to the news from this 'undercover agent' and go to join the investigation team that is now going somewhere? Snow Spirit Phantom Ice's gaze began to roam the surrounding players: "What do you think?" β
"Of course we don't have a problem." Asahi Dongsheng shrugged his shoulders first: "I still have to work every day here, but I haven't seen a single hair in terms of salary and remuneration...... Hey, that's why I said don't deal with these principalities, right? It's a bunch of treacherous guys, and maybe they're ready for us to work for the day! β
"Ning Lan is still the same sentence." Ning Lan, who was standing behind Duan Qing, then tilted her head and smiled: "Where Mr. goes, Ning Lan will go." β
"I don't have a problem either, as long as all the things on our side can be dealt with." Facing the gaze of Snow Spirit Phantom Ice that was then delivered, Gedmayne also shook his head: "Whether it is an investigation or a commissioned matter, as long as there is no tail, it will be beneficial to us no matter what we say." β
"That's the crux of the matter β the investigation into the previous attacks is not completely over." Duan Qing pointed in the direction where Gedmayne was: "Although we know who the murderer is, the existing doubts have not yet been fully answered, I am not afraid that Her Royal Highness Princess Rena will ask about our progress at that time, I am just afraid that these missing elements will eventually become an important node in the final conflict." β
"You mean we're going to stay here?" So Xue Lingphantom Bing tilted his head: "Let's investigate all the remaining doubts first?" β
"Well...... At least wait until this heavy rain is over. β
Looking at the heavy rain that still showed no signs of stopping, Duan Qing replied with a hesitant expression: "The investigation team still has a convoy that can provide shelter, do we have to brave such a heavy rain to advance towards Tania?" Not to mention the possible travel problems, the special monsters that may appear on rainy days alone will give us a lot of headaches. β
"God knows how long this weather will end." At first, he shook his head a little frustratedly, and then raised his excited face again: "But it's okay, there are special bosses on rainy days, since it didn't work out last time, let's take advantage of this opportunity to try again!" β
"Are you talking about the dragonfish? Forget that thing, even if the five of us are willing to feed the fish together, most of the people from the Soul Adventure Group won't stop. β
"Afraid of what? If they dare to show up, we'll just clean them up again, are you afraid of that level of opponent? Then you can hide behind us and follow to see the essence of the so-called PVP-"
Bang.
Another loud sound of opening the door appeared in front of several people, interrupting the atmosphere that Duan Qing and the others had just heated up again, and the figure belonging to the thousand-fingered crane holding the red lotus staff was then also revealed under the surging rain curtain, and the expression when he walked into the door looked not so friendly: "......"
"What's wrong? A look of displeasure. In the scene where several people closed their mouths in unison, Duan Qing forcibly asked in a low voice with a smile, "Did those principalities provoke you again?" β
ββ¦β¦ They found out. β
His gaze stayed on Duan Qing's face for a moment, and the Thousand Fingered Crane, whose focus had just gathered, blinked his eyes as if he had been wronged: "They found out the identities of those adventurers who attacked the fortress. β
They said...... It was made by an imperial gang called the Red Lotus Gang. β
**********************************
The Red Lotus Gang had attacked the Empire's Fars Fortress - news of this did not initially spread in the player's world, not only because the previous battle took place too late, but also because there were not many players involved in the battle in the first place. There was almost no contact with the Colorful Aura, and Duan Qing and the others naturally didn't know what the other purpose of Yinzhu making such a big noise was before, but the series of damage caused by the Red Lotus Gang in the Fars Fortress finally left too many clues for the principality's side to identify.
Unlike the various ideas among the players, the principality has no obligation to protect this information and news, not to mention that the news also provides an excellent opportunity for the Principality of Elnifia to take the initiative again in the negotiations.
"Look at you! Look at you Imperials! Not only are you going to send people to attack us on a rainy day like this, but you're also trying to plant a magic bomb again? Do you want to recreate the tragedy of a year ago? β
"That's right! They want to use that person who is a bamboo to grab our attention and fry us in one pot! β
"It's a conspiracy! This is a complete conspiracy! We have also informed your country of what we have found before! There must be someone here who wants to frame us in this way! β
"We believe that the Empire will not do such a thing, but you also need to make a reasonable explanation for the appearance of this Red Lotus Gang, otherwise...... We're going to have to reconsider the veracity of the information you've provided, aren't they really your makeshift excuses? β
ββ¦β¦ The situation has become even more unfavorable. β
In the town hall of Taran Town, Talon Plain, Her Royal Highness Princess Rena, who was dressed in blonde hair, looked calmly out of the window where she was, and the back of her chin also shifted to the outside of the sparsely populated hall with her slightly swaying body, as if the negotiation and quarrel that was taking place in front of her was not as attractive as the rain curtain outside the window: "It's hard work Di Proma Qing, I hope he can withstand the other party's attack." β
"Why is this a problem at such a critical time?" Looking motionlessly at the dilapidated ground under the long golden hair of Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, the fat nobleman named Field then showed an angry expression: "What are the adventurers we left there for?" How would they let this happen? β
"It's just a few small adventurers, and they don't have that much ability to stop anything." The Landnar Patriarch, who was sitting on the other side, then let out a disdainful sneer: "Or are you, who proposed to keep them there, now have to go back on your decision?" β
"Hu, nonsense!" The fat nobleman immediately threw aside his sweaty hair: "Where is my decision?" Is it the decision made by Her Excellency Princess Rena and everyone together? And whatever they're doing now, it's also a fact that they're causing us troubleβ"
"I want you to put aside your prejudices." With a deep sigh, Lot, who was standing in the corner of the Imperial camp in full gear, finally spoke his voice: "His Royal Highness Chris's life and death are uncertain, and the investigation team has been harassed outside the city by the principalities, and the glory of the Frey Empire has now been reduced to the lowest level, and even these third-rate representatives sent can make fun of us at will." β
"We need to work together to get through this." He then turned around, and his gaze also fell on the motionless and graceful body of Her Royal Highness Princess Rena: "I hope Your Highness can consider my previous proposal, they are really an important fighting force that cannot be ignored." β
"My decree has already been issued." Gently waving her hand, Rena's gaze still stayed on the rainy curtain that everyone had not noticed: "If those people under Simon's hands really have some ability, the news should have been delivered at this time." β
"I hope they can give us a satisfactory explanation."
Her face was calm, and her eyes inadvertently passed by the negotiation table in front of her, which was still arguing, and a fat man who looked very rude was also sitting in the principality's camp at the end of Her Royal Highness Princess's field of vision, lying on the back of the town hall with her legs crossed indifferently: "How is the situation over there?" β
"Back to my lord, there is no news yet."
"No news yet? Do I think highly of these Imperials? β
Tilting his head, the fat man who was shaking his fat body finally looked at the leaders of the investigation team who looked bitter and hateful: "It's all come to this point, they still refuse to make a move." β
"Looks like I'm going to need a few more handfuls of oil to the fire."
