"Well, it's finally the day."

In the early morning of February 28, 796 in the new calendar of the free world, in the beautiful scene of another day of sunlight flowing from one side of the grassland to the distance, the people belonging to the Qingling Adventure Group also yawned and blended into the range of the wind with the appearance of a team from the Nasu tribe: "I don't know how they chose it, but they chose such a day that is not up and down." ”

"Maybe people have their own calendars, for example, today is not suitable for breaking ground at home, retreating and cultivating, it is suitable for going out to duel, fighting, killing and killing, and so on......"

"If there really is such a calendar, please be sure to give Lao Tzu a copy! Of course, if it really works! ”

"While this is certainly something we're working on right now, you don't really want to be a native of the Windy Continent, do you? What about your pride and pride as adventurers? Don't you hate the winds that never stop here? ”

"Speaking of which, this kind of weather is really unheard of."

Pulling the hood on his head vigorously, Duan Qing, who had already hidden his image in the cloak, looked up at the sky above the team, which still looked gloomy: "Even if it is a grassland, the non-stop wind twenty-four hours a day is a very rare weather, right?" Not even the sea breeze on the Endless Sea has ever been so strong. ”

"The sea breeze on the endless sea may have originated from this place." Pouting, he looked to the left of the direction of the procession, and replied as if he had seen the edge of the sea, "Don't forget the elemental erosion contained in the sea breeze of the Endless Sea—if this is where they originated, then there is an explanation for the safety of the coast we have seen along the way." ”

"Then a new question arises: Where do these winds come from?" So Duan Qing looked back at the direction where everyone came: "Shouldn't there be a source of wind standing in the depths of this grassland?" ”

"I did ask the Sioux people, but they didn't give a precise answer." Knocking left and right on the silent Nassu warriors in the ranks, Gedmayne replied in a low voice, "I don't know if it's because they really don't know, or if they still don't trust us......

"The answer I know is that in the center of this continent, there is a huge rocky mountain."

The sudden voice broke the conversation between the two people like a whisper, and at the same time, the figure of Baibu Wushuang who was also following them gradually appeared: "That rock mountain is blowing endless wind around it all the time, pouring out its own endless energy, and it is even rumored that the wind on the entire Wind Continent is born from that rock mountain. ”

"Sounds like a god mountain." The atmosphere around him was silent for a moment, and Duan Qing took the lead in twisting his eyebrows and making his own evaluation: "But considering the area of an entire continent, isn't this scale a bit too exaggerated...... How far is that rocky mountain from us? ”

"I don't know how far it is." Sullenly uttering this, the hundred-step warrior with the great bow on his back replied without looking back: "But it must be far away, for even I, who have traveled with the caravan for so long, have never seen the face of that mountain now." ”

"That's far enough." Scratching his cheeks, the expression on Duan Qing's face gradually became heavier: "But it's so far away to maintain such a wind...... Not. ”

"This is also one of the characteristics of the Wind Continent."

Instead of Duan Qing said such a sentence, the rising sun that was walking on the side waved his arms vigorously as if in a trance: "And I finally understand another truth!" Why are there such a need for Wind Stones here? ”

"If my tribe and I survive in such an environment, I will definitely find a way to solve these annoying winds." The heavy armor and shield hummed as the wind blew, and Gedmayne let out a low exclamation, "If the Wind Stone really protects us from these winds, I must buy one to carry with me." ”

"In other words, we haven't even achieved the treatment that the low-level personnel should have?" let out a wry smile, and Duan Qing, who looked at the silent appearance of the Sioux soldiers on the side, then put away his helpless gaze: "It's really a sad conclusion, I just hope that we, who have been exposed to these winds for a long time, won't suffer any other sequelae—huh?" ”

"What's wrong with you?" As if he had just noticed the anomaly in the team, the gray-robed magician shifted his attention to the Snow Spirit Phantom Ice, who had been moving silently with his head down: "Why don't you speak?" ”

“…… It's nothing. ”

Glancing up at the other party, Xue Ling's eyes full of tiredness and complexity were then hidden in his bowed head: "I'm fine, let's hurry up." ”

"It's very clumsy to even hide it." Sighing deeply, the voice belonging to Duan Qing then drifted in Xue Ling's phantom ice's ears: "It seems that you have been like this since the last time you went offline, right?" Is there something wrong with reality? ”

“……”

"Now I can't ask you to tell the truth in reality, because I can't interfere with reality for the time being."

Looking at the embarrassment of the other party falling into silence again, Duan Qing spoke again in a low voice: "But at least if you really encounter any problems and difficulties, it is always not wrong to say it and let everyone find a way to solve it together." ”

"The only way I can understand the situation outside now is that you can rely on you and these companions around you to relay it back and forth." He gestured to the direction of Asahi Dongsheng and Gedmayne, who had begun to fight again at some point, and the smile that had been on his face slowly disappeared: "Don't you even give me such an opportunity?" ”

"It's not that I don't want to tell you, but the news they told me ......" Pursing his lips vigorously, the expression revealed by Xue Lingphantom Ice when he raised his head again finally showed a little panic: "This news is really ...... If it's true......"

"It's okay, let's say it first." From the other party's words and expressions, he sensed a bad feeling, and the smile that Duan Qing maintained on his face also seemed a little deliberately stiff: "Trust me, I will find a way to solve it." ”

"—I heard that the old coalition applied to the above."

Trying to calm his breathing, Xue Ling Phantom Ice finally used his stabilized emotions to say the rumor that had been hidden in his heart for a long time: "Because the major guild forces and families outside are resisting openly and secretly, they say that they are no longer able to continue to maintain the order of the professional alliance, so they want to ask the official to use appropriate means to solve it and suppress this increasingly fierce conflict." ”

"Isn't that a good thing? The people above are willing to listen to the players. Raising his eyebrows, Duan Qing replied in a puzzled voice: "If they fight well, maybe they can really reshuffle the cards in a formal way." ”

"If only it were that simple." The voice said this irritably, and Xue Lingphantom Bing's movements to raise his head again became much more hurried: "This time they are retreating as advances, and while making this request, they are also exposing the problems that have been lurking within the alliance for a long time. ”

"Of course, these so-called problems are all after they have been screened and have nothing to do with all the high-level in their alliance." There was a certain gnashing of teeth in her voice, and the white-haired woman's face hidden under the hood became much colder: "In order to solve these so-called 'management negligence', they have made many requests to them at the same time. ”

"One of the requests is 'Request to screen the entire world of players involved in the virtual reality game world to find out who is illegal.'"

She read the sentence slowly, and her eyes gradually became serious: "The league blew itself up that they have been tired of dealing with the schedule of events in the virtual world for a long time, neglecting to investigate many of the strange phenomena and some unexplained consequences that have occurred, and even in the professional world, there are many similar management chaos. ”

"Well, that's a surprise." The figure walking with the team was silent for a moment, and Duan Qing finally let out a faint low chuckle: "When did the people of the alliance have this kind of courage?" How do they admit their faults to such a point? ”

"Where is this admitting one's mistakes? This is clearly aimed at you! Couldn't help but make such a sound, Xue Ling Phantom Ice shouted at Duan Qing, "They are taking the opportunity to find you!" If they do mobilize the upper forces to check all the players, they will find your head sooner or later! ”

"That's really hard for them, they didn't hesitate to destroy themselves to this point in order to deal with me alone." Shaking his head and letting out two more low chuckles, Duan Qing replied with some self-deprecation: "Now that the new alliance has been completed and arose, what's the use of getting me alone?" They might as well negotiate with them. ”

"Because they also know what the ultimate purpose of that Miss Lou is to establish a new alliance, and everyone's ultimate goal is you!" Xue Lingphantom Ice involuntarily said aloud: "You are the focus of all problems now!" It's the center of the whole whirlpool! No matter which side finds your existence first, you'll end up with-"

"Don't worry, they won't find me."

Stopping the rapid movements of the woman in front of him with the movement of pressing his hands, Duan Qing finally pouted and said comforting words: "Even I don't know where I am now, how can they find me?" ”

"When I was the general manager of Tianxiang Company, it was not difficult to find someone in Hualan City." Stretching out his hand and grabbing the other party's sleeve, Xue Lingphantom Bing said solemnly: "What's more, it's the alliance and the forces behind them, you don't need everyone to do it, you only need the Chu family's family to intervene in it, and the heaven and earth net launched should be enough!" ”

"On the contrary, neither the Chu family nor the Duan family should have similar clues." interrupted the woman's words again, and Duan Qing's face also brought a little smile: "In order to completely cut off relations with me, the people of the two families wanted to erase all the relevant facts about my existence, so now, they have no clue to find me. ”

"Probably because of the same reason, these people came up with the idea of using the power of the upper echelons to find my existence." Shaking his head, he dissolved his low smile into the wind that was still passing around him: "Look, aren't they already poor in donkey skills and dogs jumping over the wall in a hurry?" The situation seems to be more favorable to us. ”

"Don't worry, I'm safe." He retracted the divine light in his eyes, and then patted Xue Ling's shoulder as he fell silent again: "Instead of thinking about those things that are far away, it is better to deal with the duel in front of us honestly...... How is the practice that was given to you before? ”

"Of course there is no problem."

"Every time you say that, it's when you have a problem, I know you too well, presumably because of this rumor, you haven't calmed down to hone your skills for the past two days."

"Well, even if you guessed correctly? You can't win this battle on my own, can you? How much do you know about those Nashi opponents? ”

"It's not something I'm supposed to solve, it's someone who was given the problem should be solved – hey! The sun rises! Did you hear that? How's your inquiry? ”

"That old man doesn't have any more information, the information he told me is no different from before, and the Lufin Chamber of Commerce didn't seem to have any dealings with this tribe before, and I didn't even hear much of the other party's name."

"Didn't the Sioux people describe these opponents as 'cunning as wolves'...... Ha, if they are really like wolves, then these enemies are not easy to deal with. ”

"Wolves only show their strength when they gather together, and fighting alone is not their specialty, unless they really have the existence of the wolf king, or what kind of tricks they can play...... Not. ”

"We seem to have arrived."

The endless wind still kept blowing in their ears, and in the whistling sound in their ears, a line composed of a glittering water light faintly appeared in front of the mixed team composed of the warriors of the Nasu tribe and the players, and the heads of the people gradually gathered at the edge of the green grassland with the passing of this crystal river and the murmuring sound of the water that faintly appeared in the sound of the wind, and stood side by side in the distance of Duan Qing and the others' field of vision in a welcoming way: "So what's the use of asking so much." ”

"It's better to see than to hear."
