1032 Mix-in
The neighing of horses came faintly from afar, adding a few different kinds of vividness to the makeshift camp set up by Duan Qing and the others, and a certain gray-robed magician who sat back in the camp finally smiled with this return, and at the same time gave his thumbs up to the two female players who stayed here: "Okay, okay, it's done." β
"Who are those people?" Looking at the player group of three men and one woman not far from their camp, Xue Lingphantom Ice, who had been sitting on the rock platform behind them, took the lead in hanging up his curious look: "You seem to know them?" β
"Just a few people you know in the Novice Village, you should have heard me say it before." Looking back at the same direction, Duan Qing still grinned: "To be able to meet again in this place, I have to admire my fate." β
ββ¦β¦ I seem to remember. As if thinking of some kind of beautiful past, a strange smile appeared on Xue Ling's face: "When they were in Karlo Village, they were-"
"See you again!"
An incredibly loud announcement then appeared behind Duan Qing, accompanied by a player dressed as a swordsman who walked to the front of the camp with a loud laugh: "That's right! Standing in front of you is the former Rookie King, the current Empire Nova, the future King of the Alliance, and the Soul Hunter! Wha β
ββ¦β¦ Don't listen to him blowing nonsense there, that's what he is. Pulling the other party's shoulders to the bottom of the slope, the exile war song who followed him on the side revealed his helpless face in front of everyone: "Hello, we are an ordinary rookie team, and we are just passing by to do tasks at present. β
"Exile Warsong, huh? I remember you too. The white-haired woman who jumped down from the rock platform above and gradually walked in then slapped her hands: "What about those two guys?" β
"Well...... Miss Murong was more afraid of life, and she was frightened again just now, so she stayed in the carriage. Pointing in the direction of the carriage behind him, the exile war song tapped the small round shield on his left arm: "Actually, if it weren't for Lin Yuan Shushui recognizing us, we would have almost taken you as a robber...... Hey? β
"This lady looks familiar." He looked at Xue Ling's Phantom Ice, who was gradually coming forward, with a look of memory in his eyes: "Have we met before?" β
"I guess I have." Quietly replied, Xue Ling Phantom Ice then calmly pointed towards Duan Qing: "After all, I was born in the same novice village as him, and I have been acting with him before. β
"Yes, yes? I didn't notice that. Scratching his head, the exile war song then looked in the direction where Duan Qing was: "After the previous adventure in the jungle of Gemenan, we hardly met again, and then I heard that you left the village, and those words of thanks didn't have time to say ......"
"Thanks, no words! We just need to get stronger! The soul hunter on the side laughed and patted his chest: "Wait for us to get ahead, and then shout 'We were originally mixed up with the water in the abyss' - when the time comes, he will come to thank us!" Wha! β
"I see, I see."
Looking at the two novice players who started to quarrel again because of the arrogance of the other party, Gedmayne, who had been holding his arms next to him, finally approached Duan Qing with a helpless face: "They are all good people, no wonder you still remember them." β
"Why, am I the kind of guy who likes to forget about people...... Belch. β
Raising his hand to block the accusatory gaze that a blue-haired female swordsman then handed over, Duan Qing then turned his face with a dry smile: "Okay, okay, anyway, this time the luck is not bad...... Both, do you have any seats in your carriage? β
ββ¦β¦ What, you're stuck here? Finally stopping the quarrel for a moment, the exile war song stretched her head around the camp: "Or are you going to go far away, but you don't have a suitable means of transportation?" β
"Something went wrong, so we're in a special situation right now." After hesitating for a moment, Duan Qing finally chose to cover up this topic for the time being: "Anyway, we need some way to take a car now, and by the way, help us move someone to the imperial capital." β
"Go to the imperial capital." Sighing slightly, the exile war song then showed a look of embarrassment: "We have just received a task from the guild to send us a batch of supplies to the castle of Thebilisi, if it is to the imperial capital, it will take a long detour." β
"Oh?" Duan Qing raised his eyebrows and asked, "Your guild mission?" Which guild? β
"Tribe of beasts and birds." Slightly straightening the red Adventure Regiment insignia on his chest, Exile Warsong replied with a strange expression, "Their base camp is in that city, soβuh, what's wrong?" β
Like an uninvited guest who broke into the banquet, the atmosphere that had just heated up between several people suddenly cooled down with the appearance of these words, and the exile war song, who noticed this change, then slowly put back the words he had originally said halfway, and turned to look at Duan Qing's face that was gradually entangled: "I know this sounds a little strange, but of course there is a reason for this, you who took us through the trial mission at the beginning, aren't you not in the Flame Dragon Beast Guild now?" β
"That's right, only fools of that guild are willing to enter!" Before Duan Qing could answer, the soul hunter on the side screamed and clenched his fists: "Those two bastards who kicked us out of the club, Lao Tzu will make them regret it sooner or later!" β
"Those two bastards...... Which two bastards are they? Duan Qing asked with a strange expression, "It can't be a drunken and a guy called Shadow of Change, right?" β
"Who is the Shadow of Change? I don't know. Tilting his head slightly, the soul hunter with a puzzled expression on his face then waved his hand irritably: "We're talking about the two guys who led the team through the guild trial at the beginning, and they don't have much ability and always like to summon people!" Not...... What are they called? β
"One is called Lazy Cat, and the other is called Crystal Bun." Pouting helplessly, Exile War Song then answered the question in the other party's place: "They seem to be very ...... about the fact that Miss Murong and Alaste can actually pass the trial I don't understand it, and I think there must be something wrong with it. β
"That's right! They actually look down on Big Brother Broken Water! The Soul Hunter immediately became indignant again: "Don't they know how hard we put in to get over that boss?" Why do those two people who can't beat us look down on us? β
"The effort it took to kill that crocodile is really nothing, and there will definitely be more difficulties for you to overcome in the future." Sighing slightly in his heart, Duan Qing, who stepped forward, then shook his head and looked at the two former teammates in front of him: "But...... I understand your situation a little. β
"And how did you join the beast tribe?" Asahi Dongsheng on the side then crossed his arms and asked, "Haven't you inquired about the reputation of these guilds before?" Or do you want to investigate what they've done? β
"At that time, we urgently needed a guild to shelter, or we would starve to death on the streets." Turning his head to look at the giant axe warrior, the exiled war song replied a little helplessly: "And the beast and bird tribe is not bad to us, both the treatment and the benefits of the guild are much better than the original, as for how to joinββ"
"We just told each other that we are the enemies of the Flame Dragon Beast, and they immediately nodded!" The soul hunter next to him shouted in response to the question, "It couldn't be more crisp! β
ββ¦β¦ The two local guilds seem to be more antagonistic than the gang stories you've told. β
Glancing helplessly at the face of the rising sun, Duan Qing then looked at the two people in front of him again: "But ...... Tribes of beasts and birds? I remember that guy who touched the fish didn't call himself the Beast and Bird Alliance? β
"Whether it's the Beast Bird Alliance or the Beast Bird Tribe, it's the Guild of the Fish Toucher." The Exile War Song solved this question for Duan Qing: "Except for the difference in the name and the main range of activities, there is almost no difference between the rest. β
"Is that okay? Won't the Adventurers' Guild care? β
"There are very few adventure groups in the empire, and most of the guilds will acquiesce in this kind of bifurcated management."
Slowly stepped forward, and answered Duan Qing's question with a low smile: "Just like the branch meetings of guilds, many guilds use this way to include the newcomers they fancy into their pockets in advance...... Not. β
As if remembering something, she suddenly became silent when she said this, and Duan Qing, who had realized something, then also used her smile to cover the other party's stiff face, and at the same time turned her head to look in the direction of the two rookie players again: "So you are actually working in a talent reserve guild now...... Well, come on, I hope you will really get ahead in the future. β
"The Beast and Bird Alliance is just a Beast and Bird Alliance, no matter how you get out, you can't get into the ranks of Lanshan or Jianghu." Exile War Song shrugged his shoulders senselessly: "This trip, I just hope to be able to earn some extra money and find a chance to see the outside world." β
"The castle of Thebilisi, huh?" Gedmane, who was on the side, nodded his head with his chin: "In the current situation is so grim, going to that place is indeed an option. β
"What, do you think we're going over there?" Asahi Dongsheng hurriedly waved his hand: "Please, my wanted notice was issued by the Imperial military, and the Tibilisi Castle is one of the Imperial fortresses, and the military power there is very developed!" β
"Then you'd better find a place where the imperial military is underdeveloped." The heavily armored warrior pointed at the other party's head: "The province of Santerus, where Tanzania City is located, is already an outlier among the aliens, do you still want to escape to the great wilderness in the northeast of the empire?" β
"Well...... this"
"What trouble are you in here?" Looking at the two players who were gradually entangled together, Exile War Song cautiously asked Duan Qing, "Are you wanted?" β
"Yes, almost all of our current team members are sinners."
Glancing at the other party slightly, Duan Qing nodded his head with a smile: "In order to avoid the eyes and ears of the empire and clear ourselves of certain crimes, we were originally going to go to the imperial capital Redkar, of course we ......"
"Now that we've added the threat of local gangs, it looks like we're going to have to borrow the name of the enemy."
*********************************
Some time later, in the east of the town of Entair, a horse-drawn carriage slowly appeared on the horizon from the edge of Cotan Boulevard, and the wheels rolled by the heavy body then drove into the town with the figure of the Soul Hunter and the Exile Warsong, accompanied by a whispered exchange between the two men: "So why are we under the car and they are in the car?" β
"It doesn't need to be asked, do they dare if you let them come out and show up now? Besides, the carriage is full of goods, so you have to squeeze in and squeeze yourself. β
"Then you can't go on like this, there's still a long way to the castle."
"I'll go to the town first to see if I can deal with some goods first, anyway, as long as I can get money, the guild won't say anything......
As the exile war song said, the number of people sitting in the carriage at this time has also increased dramatically from the original two to eight, but the embarrassing scene of people and goods crowded together did not bring any inconvenience to Murong Qingchun, who was originally sitting in it, but became much happier because of Duan Qing's arrival: "Wow! What is that? Is it a statue? β
"That's right, it's the symbol of the town of Entair, and I heard that there was once a very powerful magician here, and this statue was built in his honor."
"A very powerful magician?" The little girl who was excitedly holding Duan Qing's arm and liked to stick to each other as usual opened her eyes wide and asked, "What's his name?" β
"I think it's called Clariant." Secretly wiping his cold sweat, Duan Qing smiled and withdrew his gaze from the direction where the carriage window was: "It is said that he created the magic array system by himself, and has the ability to popularize magic in the world...... Well? β
As if sensing some kind of sudden abnormality, Duan Qing's gaze fell on Violet who was sitting in the corner of the carriage, and an indignant voice then interrupted his thoughts, accompanied by an expressionless face belonging to Xue Lingphant: "Okay, how long are you going to hold him?" β
"Aha, my young lady is a little sensible." Then he pulled the little girl's body, and Alast, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly pulled Murong Qingchun, who was almost shouting, back: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." β
"Alright, don't get jealous." He turned his head with a low smile, and then the voice that belonged to the whispering voice sounded opposite the two: "The front is the station intersection, and someone will come to check it soon." β
"That's right, it's them." Asahi, who withdrew his gaze, then turned his head as well, reminding the others in a wary tone: "The gang that has classified this town as their own territory. β
"Nanshan faction."
