"How's it going?"

In the real world, in the mansion villa in the downtown area of Hualan City, a black-clothed man dressed like a bodyguard pushed open a door in front of him, and the voice of the faint woman who was faintly echoing inside suddenly became clear: "Hasn't that guy Lu Yang decided yet?" If we don't decide, there's no need for us to wait for him-"

“…… That's right, that's right, the joint letter has been decided, and now it is waiting for a formal application for protest to the coalition...... Wait a minute, what do you say? ”

"They consulted the alliance in advance? Did anyone go to the opposing camp to ask for advice? Are those guys going to rebel? You go to them and then - no, forget it, don't ask. ”

"Remove them from the list, the general trend is over, and at this point, even I can't afford to take into account the thoughts of one or two hesitants."

Gently pressed the screen in front of her, and the woman named Lou Yuyan then let out a complicated sigh, and then she slowly put the communication ball in her hand on the delicate communication table in front of her with her raised right arm, and her eyes gradually turned back with this action: "What's the matter?" ”

"Miss, there's news from the free world." The movement that kept his head down did not change, and the black-clothed guard replied in a low voice: "Jianghu and Vizad have asked someone to send us a message, everything is ready. ”

"It's a good fit for what we agreed at the beginning." The corners of his serious mouth curled slightly, and Lou Yuyan's not-so-good-looking complexion softened a little with the words of the man in black: "The 'big move' that I said in advance, can I also put it into action now?" ”

"The people of the Long family have also confirmed this issue with us before, and they seem to be very interested in the matter that you once proposed, Miss." The standing figure still maintained the movement of bowing his head, and the man in black who didn't seem to dare to face the building in front of him continued to whisper: "As for Vizad's side, Sunset Lone Smoke himself has not come forward, and they seem to be still busy in the game world." ”

"Vizad...... Hum. ”

As if remembering some bad memories, Lou Yuyan let out a heavy cold snort: "He and that scholar who is scheming must be also calculating how to use our actions to make a lot of money now, we can't always treat them as our allies, and we must be prepared for the last insurance." ”

"Elder Wu also thinks so, and he instructed us to make arrangements for the future." Nodding his head, the man in black bowed slightly replied in a low voice, "As long as they dare to show any abnormalities in their final actions, we will act immediately and exclude them from the plan." ”

"Time is running out, isn't it?" With a mature and charming smile in satisfaction, Lou Yuyan's eyes that looked a little tired because of his busyness then moved to the screen that was constantly displaying light, shadow and data: "The end of the year is approaching, and the next league announcement of the League Cup will start soon......

"Let's hope everything changes at that point."

Her eyes gradually became dull, and the woman with wavy curls waved her hand casually, and the black-clothed guard who noticed this action then got up and stepped back, but her steps to leave the room were interrupted by the next moment's call: "Wait a minute." ”

"What's going on inside...... What's going on? ”

The voice became slighter, and Lou Yuyan, who stretched out her hand to point forward, then asked with a tired face, showing the hesitation and uneasiness on her face for a moment, and the next moment she slowly disappeared into the flicker of the light screen flowing with a large amount of data as she lowered her head and stroked her forehead: "He...... Are they doing well now? ”

"They've arrived in Liberty City now, and they seem to be on some important mission." The black-clothed guard who turned around and bowed his head reported solemnly: "Including Miss Ning Lan, everyone is currently moving in an orderly manner in the city, and they should have found the direction of the task." ”

“…… Have you found out where the girl is? ”

After a period of silence to digest the information just passed by his subordinates, Lou Yuyan also sorted out the thoughts in his mind from a sentimental state: "It's the person I confessed to you before." ”

"We found her real-life address, and it's not too far from us." The voice of the report was obviously stunned, and the man in black who had been recalling it for a while then replied in a low voice: "She now lives in a rented house near Tianlin Hospital in District D, and there is a younger brother who is being hospitalized in Tianlin Hospital, I heard that she was transferred from a security gathering area in the suburbs, and she suffered from Antikru syndrome when she was a child——"

"I know all these things." Frowning and interrupting his subordinates' words, Lou Yuyan waved his hand: "It's that terminal disease that is difficult to cure, right?" Did she move around there? Where does her money come from? ”

"We don't know where she got her medical bills, and we didn't have any contact with the target." The man in black replied in a low voice, "And according to our tracking and interrogation, this girl has not been in the hospital for a long time. ”

"What?" Lou Yuyan's expression changed slightly: "Could it be that they-"

"Don't worry, Miss, she should be fine." Holding down Lou Yuyan's immediately raised tone, the man in black hurriedly explained: "She has been staying at home and has not gone out, and there is no trace of life, we have not disturbed each other's lives, but judging from the observation of the eighth team, she should, should ......"

"I guess it hasn't come out of the game world all along."

He said this, and then he didn't have his own voice for a long time, and Lou Yuyan, who sensed something abnormal from this silence, then slowly raised his head, and his face and expression became extremely serious: "Could it be that she...... No, no, she hadn't learned how to use the sword, nor did she have the ability to push it to that point. ”

"Her current situation in the gaming world can be described as extremely difficult, and no one knows about her now." The man in black lowered his head and continued to report: "In the game world, he is also actively tracking down the whereabouts of that girl, and now it seems that there are already some clues. ”

"Let's continue to secretly guard the whereabouts of both sides."

After taking two deep breaths, Lou Yuyan's expression also regained its original calm as her chest gradually soothed: "There are still too many problems that have not been solved, and I don't have time to take care of these things now, even if I solve the things in the free world, it will not help the overall situation." ”

"For that moment to come."

She said this sentence in a firm voice, and then gradually lowered her head in the action of the man in black gradually bowing his head and exiting the room, and the long veil figure belonging to this mature woman then appeared on the other side of the second floor of the luxury villa in a period of silence, and gently knocked on the door on that side: "...... I have something to ask you. ”

"Ning Lan is very busy right now."

The silent feeling lasted on the other side of the door for a while, and then it was suddenly broken with Ning Lan's response: "Miss Lou, is there anything wrong?" ”

"You ...... He ......"

Suddenly becoming a little overwhelmed, the mature woman's gaze at the simple maid dress that was half a head shorter began to waver: "Have you been in Liberty City lately?" ”

"Yes."

Without the smile and warmth of facing Duan Qing, Ning Lan replied indifferently in her voice, and the eyes that looked directly at the other party also perfectly revealed her idea of not wanting to say a word, and also made Lou Yuyan, who was originally a little hesitant, feel a lot more irritable: "You guys...... Are you trying to track down Mengzhu's whereabouts? ”

"Since Miss Lou knows everything, then there is no need to ask Ning Lan anymore."

The aura behind the crack in the door became more and more cold, and Ning Lan's ruthless eyes gradually faded into the darkness that could not be seen: "You can use your skills." ”

"Wait, wait!"

hurriedly stopped the other party's action of wanting to close the door, and Lou Yuyan's voice became much faster: "Then did you find her?" How is she doing now? ”

"We haven't found her yet, and my husband is preparing for his next steps." Ning Lan's voice sounded in the darkness of the room that she couldn't see: "Ning Lan also has the task that Mr. gave Ning Lan, and meeting Miss Lou offline has already violated Ning Lan's principles, so-"

"If Miss Lou really wants to see Mr., please ask Miss Lou to go online to find him herself."

The door was finally shut.

"Judging by the plan of action that Mr. left behind, he should be located near the hermit camp right now."

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

"Hey, wait, wait, wait."

At the same moment, in the bustling crowd near the hermit camp in the free world, the gray-robed magician who had just been dragged out looked helplessly at the figure of the female player in front of him, and at the same time rubbed his wrist, which was a little swollen because of the stiff pulling: "Is there anything you can't say inside, you have to drag people outside to talk?" ”

"Do you think that what you and I are going to say is something that can be listened to casually?"

With chestnut short hair, a pair of beautiful big eyes that are half-exposed, and a slightly rounded chin, the tall and heroic posture of this female swordsman also shrank a little because of the action of approaching Duan Qing at this time: "Even if there is a hermit camp, this is also a place where the players of the Freedom City are intensively active, and what kind of style of the players of the Freedom City, don't you know?" ”

"This is a literal free city in the wilderness." The thick eyebrows that appeared between the short hair raised slightly, and the female swordsman's gaze became much more serious: "In any other place in this area, fresh meat like you may have been gnawed to the bone!" ”

"You can't survive in a city that symbolizes freedom without a bad heart—that's a saying that's a popular phrase here." Touching his nose and letting out a wry smile, Duan Qing then turned his head and glanced at the gate of the camp that he had just walked out behind him: "I also experienced the customs and customs here just now, and the so-called hermit camp was probably established to fight against this evil spirit." ”

"So this is—uh, smiling Miss Kitty."

His brows gradually twisted, and Duan Qing then looked at the top of the head of the tall female warrior with slender legs standing in front of him with puzzled eyes: "Anyway, your name looks a little familiar." ”

"Huh? Is it? As if she had just realized this problem, the female warrior scratched her cheeks and then looked a little embarrassed: "Have you seen this name somewhere else?" I'm usually a rough person.,The level of education is not as high as others think.,I don't have any level of ID names or anything that I come up with.,It sounds very ordinary......"

"If it coincides with the name of a friend you know, just call me Miss Cat." Her palm waved in front of her, and a big grin appeared on her face again: "Or call me Meow Mi, Miss Cat or something, of course, Sister Cat's words are the best." ”

"Looks like you care about that." So Duan Qing smiled bitterly and wiped the cold sweat on his head: "So-Sister Mao, did you suddenly stop me and pull me out because you finally discovered the value of me as a magician and alchemist?" ”

"When, of course it is."

The choked voice echoed again with the sassy voice of the warrior player, and the smiling cat then patted Duan Qing on the shoulder with an encouraging gesture: "I've been following you since just now, and I heard that you are now in a hurry to find a team in order to join our hermit camp, right?" ”

"It's to borrow the power of a powerful team to pass a high-level mission for us." With the other party's obvious prevarication, Duan Qing, who put away his doubts, replied with a dry smile: "Sister Mao, are you planning to pull the little brother?" ”

"Uh...... I don't have that strong fixed team. ”

Her face became a little more embarrassed, and the short-haired female swordsman then smiled and pointed to her chest between the light armor: "But I have a task to be on top." ”

She took out a small wooden plaque on her waist, and then shook it proudly at Duan Qing: "As long as you have a high-level task in hand, the team or anything is not easy to come by!" ”

"Uh, that means-" The smile on the corner of Duan Qing's mouth distorted a little: "You're just a person too?" ”

"Of course." glanced at Duan Qing with a reasonable expression, and the bright smiling face of the smiling cat began to slowly change: "Wait a minute, aren't you a team?" What about the others? ”

"The members of our team are all running around in other places at the moment, and I'm the only one here at the moment." Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Duan Qing replied in a low voice with an expressionless face: "I thought that things here would be very simple, but I didn't expect it...... Forget it, can you let me see the content of the quest first? ”

"You're going to do it? With the two of us? Her eyes widened in surprise, and the female swordsman's action of holding the wooden card on her chest also seemed to loosen a little with Duan Qing's asking palm: "This is a hunting mission!" ”

"With just the two of us, this task would not have been possible."
