"Oops."

At noon on January 30, 796 in the new calendar of the free world, a firework comparable to the sun suddenly appeared in the sky above Tanzanian City, and Hongshan Lao Dao, who saw this firework bursting out, also frowned, and at the same time involuntarily scolded in a low voice: "It has actually begun." ”

"Hey!" He then put away the gloom in his eyes, and at the same time shouted to a figure in front of him, "Where are you going to run away with her?" ”

"At least take it out of the city."

His gaze became different from the usual casual, and Duan Qingtou, who had been staring at the front, whispered without looking back: "I didn't have a choice last time, this time I want to be a good person." ”

"Uh, what are you talking about?" The voice of the old Taoist of Hong Shan then rose again behind the gray-robed magician's figure: "This fellow Daoist, can we not joke ......?"

"This way!"

The loud sound of floor friction then sounded in the front of the alley, accompanied by the sound of Duan Qing, who was carrying the mysterious woman on his back, suddenly turning the corner, and the gray-robed magician who grabbed the corner of the wall with one hand then turned a big circle around the center of the circle, and used a strong arc to remove the inertia brought by the weight of himself and the woman behind him: "If you have anything else to do, you can go and get busy with your first, Brother Dao!" ”

"You haven't even go, how can I continue to play!"

Involuntarily lost the appearance of the fairy wind Dao bones in the past, and Hongshan Lao Dao, who followed the corner of the street behind him, immediately suppressed his voice because of his emotion: "Ahem, I mean to say...... Should we go to the East Gate first? There seems to be some ...... there. Uh, riots......"

"You can see it from so far away?"

"Hey, I'm old, but I'm not blind."

Pointing to the huge fire that appeared above the alley that kept flashing over the rooftops, Hong Shan Lao Dao said in a low voice: "Look at such a big fireworks, how can nothing happen." ”

"It seems to be."

With these words muttered out of his mouth, Duan Qing then lowered his head looking up at the sky: "It seems that someone really made a move." ”

"You, you know?" Hong Shan Lao Dao asked with a look of surprise: "How do you know-"

"Know what?"

The running footsteps paused slightly, and Duan Qing's gaze turned around the old Dao behind him: "Ah, are you talking about the assassination?" Come on, His Royal Highness the Prince has invited so many of us adventurers to be bodyguards, and he must have already gotten a bad hint. ”

"The other party's origin must be very big, so big that he can't trust the people around him." Speaking of this, the gray-robed magician chuckled and touched his nose: "That's why I took the step of personally recruiting members to join the personal guard." ”

"Say, that's right, ahhahahaha." So Lao Dao had no choice but to laugh for a while: "This Daoist brother is really extraordinary, and he can guess so many clues just by this little sign......"

"So who's there right now?"

Duan Qing, who was straining his breathing vigorously and stopping to rest for a while, revealed two strange glances: "You know what? ”

"Me? How could I know, ahahaha......"

"Is that so? Based on the impression you gave me before, I thought you even counted these things. ”

Using a patting hand to soothe the still panicked emotions of the woman behind her, Duan Qing's deep voice also lost its original smile: "Or...... The mission you mentioned earlier has to do with the group of attackers? ”

"How, how is that possible?"

I don't know if it was because I was intimidated by the other party's sudden way of asking questions, or because I was already late for the result of a big show, I decided to hide it, Hongshan Lao Dao, whose eyes were rolling for a while, still smiled vaguely after all, and once again resumed his usual fairy style: "Old Tao, I'm just ...... Well, it's just that I noticed that you were a little reluctant, and I secretly felt that I owed you a lot of money for my previous recommendation, so I wanted to take this opportunity to repay you a bigger task...... Wait a minute. ”

"Speaking of which, the task in front of you seems to be very good." He pointed to the woman behind Duan Qing: "Do you know how much this woman is worth in the Violet Tower?" Honestly, I happen to know a few ways to successfully extort a lot of money......"

"Violet's routine, no one knows." Duan Qing narrowed his eyes: "Presumably, you, who have been here for so long, must have heard of this process. ”

"You gave up your duty as a guard over there at this critical time, and you had to leave the city with this woman...... It can't be because of the nonsense she said before, right? Hong Shan's old man's face became strange again: "You, do you know this woman?" ”

"I don't know."

The hand behind the other party's back tightened again, and Duan Qing's afterglow stayed on the side face of the woman behind him for a moment: "But...... Regardless of why I've done this once before, I always feel like we've met somewhere. ”

"In the words of your Taoists, maybe this is fate."

His breathing gradually adjusted much more evenly, and he turned his head to look at the east of the city that was gradually becoming lively in the distance: "Let's go, it's too late if you don't leave." ”

"Hey, hey!" Behind him, the exclamation of Hong Shan Lao Dao and the raised arm again sounded: "It's just, just because of this kind of non-existent thing?" Don't forget that this is the one the Mage Council has handed over to the violet tower! ”

"Of course I know that this is the guest of honor of the Violet Tower, and I also know that if I do so, I may become an enemy of the Violet Tower."

Crossing the turbulent river of fleeing crowds again, Duan Qing, who was carrying the girl on his back, jumped to the north of the street in the central city: "I naturally have some reasons for doing this, some reasons that are not humane, such as ......"

The voice muttered to an inaudible level, and his body immediately submerged into the next shadow formed by the passage of the house: "I heard the voice. ”

[Accepted Maggie Saraka's request, the quest line has changed.] 】

[Hidden Mission: Escape from Tanzania City has been activated.] 】

Help Maggie Saraka get out of the Violet Tower's control. 】

[The prestige of the Violet Tower has turned hostile.] 】

"Stop."

The middle-aged man's voice then sounded above Duan Qing's head, accompanied by the scene of the Sherman magician who had met Duan Qing floating above the end of the alley, and the middle-aged magician, who was originally expressionless, also had a slight anger on his face at this time, and even his gentle voice became a little colder: "Do you know what you're doing, Linyuan is cut off?" ”

"Of course I do."

Without the slightest pause in his footsteps, Duan Qing, who didn't raise his head, then rushed towards the alley where the other party's feet were located, and then before a crystal wall that was about to flash out was about to rise, he shook his hand and splashed out a bottle of gray potion: "I also know that you will appear soon." ”

"Stop what you want to do, and I can act as if nothing happened."

A heavy sky-breaking wind whistle then appeared in front of Duan Qing, accompanied by a sharp wind blade that belonged to the magician floating in the air: "This is the last warning, next time...... You won't be so lucky. ”

"Hmph, it's like you can really do anything to me."

Without fear, he jumped above the cordon cut by the wind blade, and Duan Qing, who was carrying the girl on his back, shouted and rushed into the darkness of the next alley: "If you have the ability, you can really do it?" If you really hurt this hairy ...... behind me."

"Violet will definitely clean you up too, right?"

“…… Madman. “

The chaotic airflow then filled the space that Duan Qing had just passed through, turning the air there into scratches engraved on both sides of the wall, and then Sherman, who was slowly falling not far behind Duan Qing, then also let out a sneer, and at the same time raised his hand high: "Think you can do whatever you want with just that little magic potion in your hand?" ”

"Hey, you're really shooting."

Running at high speed, Duan Qing, who looked surprised, then hurriedly threw out a wall made of rock and soil, and then while the chaotic wind blade cut those earth walls into pieces, he took Maggie behind him and lay down on the ground: "Isn't she your key protection object?" ”

"It's true that she's our focus on protection, but it's not something we can't harm." Sherman's voice then rose high along with the body that had floated again: "And ......"

"I have a lot of ways to kill you without hurting her."

The crisp sound of ice crystal shattering then sounded behind Duan Qing, accompanied by two ice waves that swept along the ground and came to Duan Qing's face, Duan Qing, who didn't have time to get up, hurriedly splashed a bottle of gray potion again, and dispersed it into blue particles in the sky before the two ice waves covered themselves: "Water and Wind Double Cultivation? ”

"That's right!"

A large ice spike appeared in his hand again, and the middle-aged magician's originally meticulously combed white back floating in the air fluttered violently in the air: "Tremble! Tremble! Because—"

"In front of me, Sherman Asgallo, everything is going to be winter!"

The ice spikes reflecting the dazzling light instantly illuminated the darkness between the alleys, and when they turned around, they shot in front of Duan Qing with a beautiful straight line, and the gray-robed magician who couldn't react had to grit his teeth and throw Maggie behind him to the ground, and then raised his hands crossed in front of him in embarrassment. The sharp tip of the ice spike then made a piercing grinding sound before it was about to make contact with the surface of Duan Qing's body, and the surrounding ice chips kept rotating in the air, and the conical pillar that was endowed with great power and rotation by the wind magic then continued to dissolve and melt under an invisible force, and finally bounced towards the wall on the side with Duan Qing's vigorously raised hand: "Drink!" ”

Boom!

Like a stray bullet that has been deflected, the ice spikes keep colliding on both sides of the narrow alley, dragging the refracted blue light with a long tail of light and then disappearing into the sky like a snowstorm in a coherent geometric shape in Sherman's stunned eyes: "You, your magic robe......"

"It's been a long time since I've encountered such a situation...... Hey, I didn't think I would need this feature anymore. ”

After taking a few steps back, Duan Qing finally used his body to sit on the ground to remove the force of his forcible blocking of this attack, and his hands, which were already oozing blood, then accompanied by his smile, opened the character panel that had disappeared most of his blood: "In the end, it still played a little role in the moment of life and death." ”

"This is the all-purpose robe?" As if thinking of something, Sherman's expression became even more shocked: "But how is it ...... No, wasn't it supposed to be in his hands? ”

"You don't care where it was, it's enough for me now."

Touching the floor and standing up, Duan Qing's face immediately showed a strange smile: "Although it has no effect at all, as long as you have it, you can use the alchemy potion at any time...... It's enough to become the favorite of all alchemists. ”

"One piece of equipment can't bridge the gap between them." He shook off the blood on his hands, but his eyes glanced in the direction of Maggie, who was lying unconscious on the ground: "But ......"

"Anyway, my physical strength is so much, and I can't run far with burdens."

He grinned, pinching the two potion bottles and facing the sky behind him: "It's better to solve it and then go." ”

"Bugs who are not ashamed."

His eyes became intense again with anger, and Sherman, who was floating in the air, then raised one of his hands again: "Do you really think that if you have such a robe, you can be the enemy of my 'Ice Bringer' Sherman?" ”

"If you only consider the rank between magicians, then I am indeed no match for you." Duan Qing smiled mockingly disappreciatively: "But...... The world of alchemy is not something you can imagine. ”

"Lord Violet is the greatest alchemist! Her alchemy is already the pinnacle of this world! ”

A large amount of emerald green energy began to appear on the raised hands, and Sherman's voice echoing in the air began to become ethereal: "I have seen countless miracles under her great invention, and they are simply not comparable to a mortal like you!" ”

"Oh, really?"

Lowering his head slightly, Duan Qing slowly crossed his hands holding the potion bottle, and then quietly closed his eyes while a brilliant golden glow appeared between his fingers: "Since that's the case......"

"Then let you see the alchemy that does not belong to this world."
