[The game is over.] γ
Wow β
With the screams of surprise from the mouths of countless players watching the game, this small match belonging to the loser bracket of Group D came to an end in this way, and the rest of the spectators who had gradually gathered from all directions also looked at the final moment in front of them and discussed it with the people who were in the know. The figure of the members of the Sword of Justice who had been eliminated as losers and were walking out of the competition room at this time also came into their eyes, and the iron blue color on their faces became particularly obvious at this time, but the few players who remembered their appearances just stopped on them in a hurry for a moment, and then pounced towards Duan Qing and the others who had just walked out behind them: "Hello! I'm Little Pea from the Ranger Express, how did you defeat the mighty team of the Sword of Justice? β
"How, how to defeat? Didn't the previous matches go live? β
"That's, that'...... We just got the news and rushed here on the fly, so ...... Hey, where are you from? β
"Get out of the way, we're from the Liberty Dailyβthis gentleman, you're a member of the Takeyama team, right? For you, who have just beaten fifth in the league, what is the secret to victory? β
As the sound spread, the rest of the players scattered around the arena began to notice the appearance of this small group of figures, and only then did they realize that there was a big upset that had just happened in front of their eyes amid the noise between those players and players. The noise from the audience then appeared in the ears of Duan Qing and the others one after another, along with the shouts one after another, making the already noisy human voices even more boiling, and Mengzhu, who seemed to have not recovered from the previous highly concentrated battle state, also showed a dull look, and turned around and fell on Duan Qing's body: "That, that...... What are we going to do, uncle? β
"Hey, now our captain is you." Duan Qing replied unceremoniously, "You are our official spokesperson." β
"Don't embarrass her in such a battle." The black corn who followed behind shook his head helplessly, and then showed a eager look: "If you really can't do it...... Let me come! β
"Gotta get it, let me do it." So Duan Qing hurriedly pushed the other party behind him: "Otherwise...... I don't know what you're going to blow it up to. β
As if the sword of justice on the other side was gradually forgotten, a commotion erupted from the crowd surrounded by Duan Qing and the others, and then gradually spread out towards both sides of the road with the man's arms gradually pushed out: "Everyone, everyone! Please give wayβ"
"It's great to have so many people following our team." He put on a formulaic smile while quietly separating the figures of the other players and reporters from his own team: "Our team is just an ordinary team, and we usually don't want to make a career at all...... Hey, don't worry, it's not modesty, it's just that the map we were assigned to this time seems to have a slight advantage for us, plus the opposing team seems to have a little bit of a problem with the psychological quality......"
"This victory was just a coincidence." He pushed his hands and concluded, "If we were to fight a real battle on the road, the sword of justice would easily defeat us." β
"This Mr. Mo Shang Aoyama! Grayson seems to have mentioned you in the game before...... Do you know each other well? β
"Old knowledge? Of course, we are old acquaintances, because in Tania before us, we also seemed to have a great friendship with the Sword of Justice...... Ah, it seems that we still owe them tens of thousands of dollars for the goods, and I hope they won't run over in advance to collect their debts because of this loss......"
ββ¦β¦ Hum. β
Gradually moving his eyes away from the happy picture in front of him, Broken Wind Thunder, who was standing in the stands, took the lead in ending his bystanders with a cold snort, and then quietly left this place with the rest of the Jianghu members who had also watched the game. Also leaving this place were Wizad and the others who came to watch the battle halfway, but at this time, Sunset Lone Smoke, who was leading the team to leave here, had a strange expression on his face, because in the responses that were still ringing below, some more pointed questions were mentioned at this time: "Mr. Mo Shang Qingshan!" You haven't been on your team's roster before...... Is there any particular reason? β
"I know you want to write me as the secret weapon of the Zhushan team, but I am only their coach in name, and my level is much worse than the famous beauty coach who is the second best in the world......"
"Are you referring to the gossip that has just recently come to prominence? She's an ancient god from a long time ago, doesn't that mean you...... What is the profound relationship with that mysterious young lady? β
"I can't say that, after all, we've been out of touch for a long time, and of course - if you want her autograph, I can consider trying it out for you......"
ββ¦β¦ Hum. β
This time, the person who left from the stands above the arena was replaced by Snow Spirit Phantom Ice, who was still wearing a silver mask, and the eyes that had been covered by Liangchen Meiyu like a treasure also showed an increasingly cold look, and disappeared into the cold air behind the stands with her sudden turn. Duan Qing, who didn't notice this at all, still responded to the other questions gathered around him with a smile, and seemed to be indifferent to the increasingly congested road in front of him, until a question that emerged from the corner was thrown in front of him, and his smile began to gradually converge: "You suddenly appeared and participated in the competition at this time, there should be some special reason, right?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"Is it because of the previous provocation of the wind and thunder in the rivers and lakes? Or is it for something more important? β
"Well...... this"
Secretly sending the other members of the Fool Adventure Group out of the entrance of the arena, Duan Qing slapped his arms, and gradually hugged his hands in front of his chest, and then together with his constantly dancing fingers, he left a few fingertip marks on the silver arm armor opposite them: "Provocation is certainly one thing, but more important is ......"
"I want to use my practical actions to send some messages to certain people."
He pointed in the direction of the questioner, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "You succeeded, but ......"
"You're going to fail in the end."
Buzz β
A slight humming sound then appeared high in a skyscraper in the real world, by the large floor-to-ceiling window of a luxury office where the night breeze was constantly blowing, and a middle-aged man holding a wine glass then gloomily withdrew his fingers to turn off the light screen, while pushing away a certain woman in red who had been sitting next to him. Turning around and standing up, he turned his face to the deep night sky, and only after a while did he show his calm expression again in front of several subordinates, and the momentum and eyes that had been trimmed countless times by the years and wind and waves then fell on the body of an old man who was close to the front of him: "...... Is that him? β
"Although his appearance has changed, and the way he speaks and behaves has changed a lot, ......," the old man replied with a smile, "no matter how he changes, the old man will recognize him." β
That is to say...... He showed up anyway. Then the middle-aged man's voice became much lower: "He...... Can you still come back? β
"The old man has made a lot of preparations, including some arrangements within the alliance." The old man put away the corners of his crooked mouth: "As long as the head of the family gives an order, the old man can guarantee it...... He will never have a place to die now. β
ββ¦β¦ Very good. β
His gaze stayed on the old man's body for a long time, and the middle-aged man turned his head again: "Wait a minute, it's not the time yet...... How is the little guy we had our crush on now? β
"Everything looks like he's planned." The old man showed a smile again: "The eldest lady of the Chu family seems to have fallen under his control now, if everything goes well...... It won't be long before we can get a big gift. β
ββ¦β¦ I hope there won't be any more trouble. The middle-aged man who didn't look back turned his back and pointed in the direction where the light screen just now was: "For example...... This ghostly instability. β
"Haven't we been preparing for so long just to prevent this from happening?" The old man replied with a smile, "Please rest assured that the head of the family ......"
"No matter what that person does, he won't escape from our Five Finger Mountain."
************************
"How was today's game?"
ββ¦β¦ Won. β
"Victory, victory?"
"What, don't believe me?"
In Zaraha City in the game world, Duan Qing, who was re-online, met again with the long-awaited Flame Legend, but judging from the performance of the other party, what this guy said did not seem to appear in Duan Qing's expectation at all: "Could it be that you ...... Still hoping that we won't lose? β
"That, that...... Aha, losing is not necessarily a bad thing, at least after elimination, as a coach, you can focus on these problems in front of us......"
"Wow."
Half-stopped, Duan Qing turned his slap on the other party's back: "If you don't support us, forget it, in the end, you still secretly hope that we will lose?" I said that my heart was always chilling when I played today...... It turned out that it was all from the mouth of your group of two-five boys! β
"No, no, absolutely not, where do we have the heart to care about you, we can't even be busy with our own affairs......"
"Can't get busy? Too busy to wait for me at the Hanome Tavern? Tell me about it...... A shield warrior drinking a little wine in a tavern, what's there to do? β
"You have to believe me, we are all professional mercenaries who take money to do things, if we didn't wait there to tell you what happened before for the first time, the consequences would be unimaginable......"
The conversation that gradually became peaceful disappeared into the far part of the alley with the flattering smiling faces rarely revealed by the Legend of the Flame, and then appeared at the end of the hidden passage as the two figures shuttled, and their half-joking voices with countless stares became smaller and smaller as some movement approached, and finally converged into the eyes of each looking aheadΒ¬ - the tattered tents that were still constantly blown up by the cold wind, The smoky circular area that the rebels had used as the center of the council was now unfolding in front of them again, but the same figures who appeared in this area at this time showed a completely different atmosphere: "Bowen! Do you want me to screw your head off your neck? β
"Put away your bluff Macros, I've seen a lot of your face! If you really think there is something wrong with Lao Tzu's proposal...... Then we'll have a fight now! β
"Stop Bowen! Now is not the time for a fight! Don't you want to save hundreds of brothers waiting for us to save them on the south side of the city? β
"I don't take the rumors of those ghost adventurers easily, Dick...... You'd better get out of here, and if you want to die, you can go yourself, and I'll see you off!" β
"What the hell is this ......"
Quietly appearing on the edge of this venue that was even more noisy than usual, Duan Qing whispered to Tristan, who was standing in that corner with a wry smile: "What's the matter?" β
"What else could it be? There is a disagreement. Tristan, who replied, spread his hands helplessly: "I tactfully introduced them to the possibilities you explained to me earlier, and they ended up like this. β
ββ¦β¦ What is the crux of the disagreement? β
"Of course it'......"
Bang!
A loud collision then appeared in the corner near Duan Qing's side, interrupting the whispering between him and Tristan neatly, and Bowen, who was already standing on a wooden table, then pulled out the short blade on his waist and shouted loudly in the direction where he kicked someone away from him: "Lao Tzu doesn't matter what you think, Lao Tzu is going to quit now!" If it weren't for Hart's face...... I don't even bother to say a word of nonsense to you! β
"Exit? Don't be willful, you bastard! β
"You're a bunch of fools! A bunch of out-and-out fools! Do you really think those adventurers are here to help us? They may have secretly collected the Empire's money a long time ago! β
ββ¦β¦β
"Yes, not only the money of the Empire, but also the money of the Restoration! All they have to do is intimidate you a little...... And you will all believe! β
"Shut up Bowen! Then sit me down! β
"Hell, sit down, I've had enough of this place for a long time! I come here every day to talk about it...... Do you really think of yourselves as councillors? Do you really think that this will solve everything? β
"Hahaha! You idiots! You ......"
Bang!
In another loud crash, the scene of a certain figure being knocked away appeared in the center of the smoky venue again, only this time it was Bowen who was laughing in the sky, and a small wooden stool thrown out by Duan Qing: "Since you said so......"
"Then let's settle something first."
