742 Joints in the Dark

"The plan should be going well, shouldn't it?"

"The state of affairs has begun to develop as we expected, public opinion has formed a concerted force, and we have arranged for those who are on the outside...... I think I can take it all back now. ”

"Very well, since the head of the family has decided on this matter, then we should not need to continue to pay attention to his existence in the game world......"

"Are you sure? Lotu and the others had just failed the last time, and they still didn't seem to have anything to do with that man......"

At the same time, in the depths of the Little Andalchel Mountains, several black-clothed players around a giant magic array stood or sat around a small bonfire, passing the time of waiting with meetings and discussions: "Although they have successfully copied the skills of other games, and they can be regarded as touching the threshold of successful use of the Sword of Intent, when facing that person, both power and experience are obviously insufficient......"

"I don't think that's enough to reason for disciplining Lotu, at least his efforts and progress are well known."

"Ha, what should be done in the first place of the Demon Hunting Heaven? And the earth cannon guy...... Does going so recklessly to find trouble with others serve any purpose other than exposing oneself? ”

"It's no longer helpful to say that, at least we don't have to worry about it now, the problem we need to face now is...... How to get the Restorationists to follow our plan for the rest of the day. ”

As the words fell, several black-clothed figures dressed in different clothes looked together in the direction of the giant magic array next to them, and the purple light that gradually grew also followed their gaze, illuminating the faces that were originally hidden in the darkness into purple red: "This magic circle...... It should make a difference, right? ”

"We've brought enough knowledge to speed up the death of this game."

"I know, I know, but ...... New progress news has been sent and we don't have much time to waste here if it doesn't work out in the end......"

"IMHO...... What if it doesn't work out? A mere furnace is nothing in the face of the power of the Void, once we find a long-term source of energy......"

As these words fell, the eyes of several people invariably turned to each other's northwest, and the dawn light rising from the Dao Dao was extending from the opposite side of that direction to the banner composed of players and coalition forces, extending towards the depths of the dawn that was gradually brightening. Strange movements and faint shouts were also coming from the gradually white snowfield, as if to signal to the people around them that the Restorers were about to strike again, but the few players present who were holding an open-air meeting were obviously not concerned about them now: "This time...... Is it feasible? ”

"There should be no problem, but ......"

"I know what your concerns are, but there is nothing in this world that is 100% certain, just like the head of the family has thought that the matter has been foolproof, and now it has suddenly reappeared......"

"So what we need to do now is solve those only problems that can arise, like...... How's that going? ”

"That's it......"

Bang –

In the real world, in a villa located in District A of Hualan City, the figure of a mature woman suddenly sat up from the spot and slapped the large piece of clutter piled up on the desk in front of him: "What? They actually dismissed it? ”

"Yes, yes, miss, we ......"

"How dare they ignore such a report? This is the first iron law of the law of the alliance! ”

"But, but they said they had reviewed all the evidence and later ......"

"It's just nonsense!"

Throwing the light board in his hand on the ground, Lou Yuyan stared at the subordinates in front of him with angry eyes, and then sat back in his seat in the involuntary trembling of everyone around him: "...... The reason? ”

"They think...... The people we are accusing are just a bunch of ordinary people in society who have no apparent connection to the free world and who are ......"

The man in black in charge of the report hesitated for a moment, and then replied in a low voice, "And...... The threatened player we mentioned doesn't actually exist at all. ”

"Non-existent? Are they blind? ”

In the trembling atmosphere of countless people, Lou Yuyan's voice was as cold as a winter day: "Even if they ignore the information we provide, they still have their own data flow statistics......"

"This was also mentioned in their reply to us, and they claimed...... They also sent people to investigate this. The voice of the man in black became a little lower: "Except for a lady named Chu Lingbing...... There are no other players left. ”

"No other players?" Raising his good-looking eyebrows, Lou Yuyan's expression became weird: "This is ...... What do you mean? ”

"It seems that for other reasons, two Coalition officials visited the address we provided at some point before."

This time, the face of the man in black obviously became a little more cautious: "These things later were inquired about by us in private - they monitored the anomalies of some data flows, so they sent two prosecutors to conduct a surprise inspection, and the result was that as the subordinates said before, they did not find the existence of the person named Duan Qing." Chu Lingbing, who lived there at the time, did not admit the incident and flatly denied the problem of data anomalies, but according to later officials, two investigators found an extra high-level game pod at the scene, as well as ...... A safety lock that has been removed. ”

"The alliance has accepted this data anomaly and said it will continue to investigate." Speaking of which, the man in black lowered his head: "Relatively...... The content of our report has been put on hold for the time being. ”

“…… He's gone? ”

Looking fixedly in the direction where the black-clothed subordinate was, Lou Yuyan asked in a hollow voice, "He...... Disappeared again? ”

“…… Yes, miss. ”

"It took a hard time to determine his location, and he ran away again?"

Sadness and anger passed through his heart for a moment, and Lou Yuyan's eyes suddenly began to gradually expand: "No, it's not right! Do you say ......"

"They...... Found it too? ”

“…… I'm afraid so, miss. ”

"Damn."

Clenched her fists hard, and the mature woman in a light gauze robe slammed her fist on the table: "How can it be so fast?" It stands to reason that they should have dealt with our attack before they could figure out the source of this matter......"

"Maybe they've already found out, miss." Another man in black standing behind her said in a deep voice, "Judging from the recent series of performances in and out of the game, everything is the result of their deliberate planning. ”

“…… Still can't you stop it? The graceful body gradually curled up back into his seat, and Lou Yuyan's expression became lost: "What if...... In case they have already captured ......"

"I don't think that's possible, miss." The black-clothed subordinate standing in front immediately replied: "We have been keeping an eye on the people of the Duan family and the Chu family according to your instructions, they have not made any abnormal movements recently, and in the official statement of the alliance, it seems that the incident of that time has not been brought up again......

"Public opinion is still one-sided, and it's the best time to make this matter public." Another man in black also said in a deep voice: "The alliance, which is already so strong, shouldn't care about this little face......

"We also checked the recent file, and there is no mention of the name Moshang Qingshan, indicating that unless they lie, no one with this ID has been in and out recently......"

"We've been monitoring the in-game movement right now, and while there's been no movement, it looks like the people at Freedom Wings are already preparing for the start of the qualifiers in the near future......"

"That's right!"

As if something suddenly came to mind, a mature woman with long wavy hair suddenly stood up from her seat: "If he's online, if he's online...... Xian'er! ”

"In!"

"How's it going with what I've asked you to do?"

"Miss Hui, we have successfully joined the branch of the Fool Adventure Group, and we have been inquiring about their movements recently, and I heard that the leader named Mengzhu ...... Lately, I seem to have been leading people to search for something. ”

“……”

The speechless atmosphere diffused to the surroundings as the mature woman sat up again, gradually attracting the attention of the surrounding room of subordinates, she stared fixedly at the pile of clutter on the table in front of her, and her dull eyes became brighter and brighter: "That is to say, ......"

"He's already online, isn't he?"

"A glass of ale, thank you."

On February 10, 795 in the new calendar, in the northwest corner of the Fenghua Plain of the Free World, a player in a black cloak pushed open the door of a tavern in Xifeng Town, and sat silently on one of the empty seats in front of the bar - because of the appearance of the Restorationists and the spread of war, Xifeng Town, which was supposed to be the head of Xifeng County, was now close to becoming an empty city, and even the county leader and his troops who were supposed to be here now went to the front line with the arrival of the coalition army, Nearly two months of fighting have dispersed most of the civilians here, even the phoenix fruit specialties and ale industry that should belong here have begun to show signs of abandonment over time, and the taverns that used to be very lively have also been placed in front of the bar with the emergence of depression, Shi Shiran sat in the middle of this row of seats, and the players who had just entered here looked at the seemingly idle bartender behind the bar with flat eyes for a while, and then reached into his arms, Shoved the two coins in front of the table where a layer of dust had already appeared: "...... Is it enough? ”

"Wait a minute."

After glancing at the other man twice, the bartender reached out and pocketed the two gold coins in front of him, but instead of immediately reaching for the messy wine glasses behind him, the hand hanging the rag pointed towards a corner in front of the bar. Nodding his head at the other man, the player then got up and walked in the direction indicated by the bartender, and the black figure then disappeared into the dimly lit corner of the hall, sitting opposite the other man in black who seemed to have been waiting there for a long time: "...... Long time no see, Lord Wiesel. ”

"I didn't expect it to be you." The short-haired middle-aged man sitting in the dark lifted his chin: "You ...... recently I think I'm in a lot of trouble. ”

"I've already had the most basic communication with the Mage Council."

Reaching out and taking off the hood on his head, Duan Qing revealed his face: "Although this matter is still far from subsided, it is ...... It probably won't continue to expand. ”

"Oh? Sounds like a lot of fun. Wiesel, across the small wine table, then lifted his chin: "Can you tell me how you did it?" ”

"If Christine of the Council of Seven isn't convincing, then there's nothing else I can do." Duan Qing showed a smile: "Of course, I didn't make any excessive requests, I just hope that they won't continue to expand the situation about the rebellion of the Fool Adventure Regiment......"

"Christine? She actually found your head for this kind of thing? The expression on Wiesel's face became even more surprised: "Mind explaining the detailed process to me?" ”

"It costs money to get such information, Your Excellency the biggest intelligence dealer in the capital."

Reaching out to take a large glass of ale from the bartender who came from behind, Duan Qing shook his head and whispered, "And...... Her Excellency Christine didn't come here for me, she naturally had her own responsibilities - what are you watching me do? How could I possibly know such a thing? Even if I really knew...... From where I stand, do you think I'll say it? ”

"Alright, well, we have no intention of inquiring into other people's privacy in the first place." Smiling and raising his wine glass, Visel and Duan Qing touched it in the air: "We just followed the advice sent by the Thrones of the Free City, and your current status as a member of the Twelve Thrones, and came to help you." ”

"So...... What is needed? ”

He stared at Duan Qing's face, raised his head to drink the wine in his mouth, and then looked at Duan Qing, who also drank the glass of ale, and the corners of his mouth slowly pulled up: "Lord Aries, who has been a wanted criminal? ”

"I want to see Vaal."

As if tasting the famous ale wine of Xifeng County, Duan Qing lowered his head and was silent for a moment, before he opened his eyes and said slowly in a deep voice.
