1368 Operational Meeting
"We try not to waste time."
In the scene surrounded by several people who gradually sat down, Xue Lingphantom Bing, as the captain, then took the lead in issuing his own presiding declaration: "Next, start the combat meeting and reassemble the last few things...... Who to start with? β
"Let's start with the two of us." patted his thigh, and Asahi Dongsheng, who was hunkering in the corner with his knees crossed, gave his thumbs up confidently: "Regarding the deployment of troops near the bridge, we have circled around that square, except for the morning and evening shift changes, there are almost no flaws in other time periods." β
"The whole square has been completely surrounded by them, but this encirclement is not internal, but external." Nodding his head as well, Gedmayne's shoulder was hidden behind his iron shield, "I don't know if they gave up their search to rule the city or if they got some other news, or if they knew that we would find their heads sooner or later-"
"It's not your fault!" Before Duan Qing could raise his head and ask, Xue Ling's face on the side had darkened a lot: "If you have nothing to do, you like to cause trouble, if you continue to make trouble on the Freedom Avenue, I estimate that we will all become public enemies of the whole city!" β
"What, is there still a lot of noise between the two of them?"
Pinching his eyebrows, Duan Qing, who was constantly adapting to the atmosphere, finally found a chance to say his words: "How many people have you killed?" β
"I can't remember how many were killed, the point is that their battle demolished a few shops along the street." Looking at the silent appearance of the two people, Xue Lingphantom Ice on the side sighed and answered the other party's question: "Those shops and taverns are now Haskar's territory, so they almost caused a war on the throne......"
"You've already got the owners of the two thrones involved?" So Duan Qing's eyebrows gradually rose: "If this is the rhythm of repeating the events of the Molna Star - why don't you hurry up and die once, so that the reputation and hatred points can be cleared!" β
"What's the use of not dying in front of their eyes once? Rest assured, if a few battles can repeat events of that magnitude, then the history of the free world is not left to be written at will...... Wow, I feel like I feel like I think about it! β
"You-"
The louder and louder discussion then spread among the rising emotions among several players, mixed with shouts from Xue Ling Phantom Ice presiding over the order and weak and sharp complaints from Duan Qing, and the continuous sound then broke through the shackles of the abandoned streets and mixed into the chaotic noise of the Free City on the night of January 19, 796 New Calendar. Looking at these familiar and unfamiliar pictures in front of her, the smiling cat who had been sitting in the corner since entering the room hugged her knees and her slightly restrained movements slowly loosened, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but smile a little when she saw the scene of several people talking to each other in front of her, and then came a smiling voice named Secret Ning Lan in her ears: "It's very good." β
"It's been a long time since the breeze went down and I left that place in County Etta." Stretching out her arms, the chestnut-haired female swordsman stretched out her waist put the big grin that originally belonged to her on her face again: "Although your team is small, the relationship between you is really good. β
"That's how charming Mr. is." Nodding her head, Ning Lan, who was also sitting on the side, then made her own action of holding the tea tray tightly: "Even in the most difficult times, there will be no shortage of cheerful and sunny people around Mr. β
"When you say sir, are you referring to the abyss broken water?" Tilting his head, the smiling cat with a smile then leaned his cheek closer to the direction where Ning Lan was: "Why do you call him sir?" And this dress of yours...... What kind of master and servant game are you playing? Or is it because he is really the eldest young master in reality? β
"Sir has already taken off that identity."
In the expected reaction, he got an unexpected answer, and Ning Lan, who still kept smiling, then opened a much lower voice: "In order to protect the people around him, and even more to protect himself, Mr. gave up his identity twice, so that many people, including Ning Lan, could survive." β
"But the gentleman still enjoys it." Speaking of this, she put away her deep and sad voice: "So even if Ning Lan is no longer Ning Lan, Mr. is still Mr." β
"I don't understand what you're saying, but I always feel like it's amazing." There were two dry laughs, and the puzzled smile on his face scratched his head in embarrassment: "Anyway, you're all very close people now, aren't you?" β
"The relationship is very ...... Intimacy? β
Slowly blocking the tea tray in his hand in front of him, Ning Lan's voice involuntarily became a little sob: "Intimate or something...... Ning Lan doesn't have that qualification...... But...... But...... If the gentleman wishesβ"
"Ning Lan."
The constant noise of discussion suddenly froze for a moment, and Duan Qing suddenly turned around and asked this side of the movement and appeared in front of the two women: "How about the things I told you before?" β
"Although there were a few twists and turns in the middle, Ning Lan still tried her best to search most of the places in Freedom City." The blocking action quickly turned into a standard smile, and Ning Lan raised her head and replied softly: "According to Ning Lan's investigation, there seems to be no information about that person in the Free City." β
"Probably already hiding." Touching his chin and shaking his head, Duan Qing, who broke free from the fierce discussion in front of him, frowned and pondered: "Although the conflict in the auction house is not very obvious, it still attracts the attention of Lotu and them, even if she has no enmity with the Restoration, she should try her best to avoid the corresponding troubles......"
"Let's hope she doesn't turn around and trouble us at this critical moment." The smiling cat on the side looked at her in confusion, and her eyebrows turned into a crescent moon, and Ning Lan replied with a smile: "Otherwise, the contradiction between us and that lady may become bigger and bigger." β
"It's not about contradictions or anything like that, but ...... Never mind. β
Scratching his hair a little irritably, Duan Qing finally gave up the topic in the atmosphere that gradually cooled down: "In short, we will follow the original plan and enter the Bridge of Freedom as soon as possible...... Gedmayne. β
"I've looked into the entrance to that bridge." Nodding his head, Gedmayne, who understood what Duan Qing wanted to ask, then replied in a low voice: "Although it is not the setting method of the fully used copy, it is impossible to cross that bridge with a large army because of the existence of some unknown magical power. β
"Players trying to cross that bridge have never been cut off since the launch of the Free World." The rising sun on the side also showed a solemn expression: "If the adventurers can connect in a straight line on that bridge, then the so-called miracle bridge has already been broken through by the players?" β
"I'm afraid the coalition forces that surrounded the square are also trying to stop trying, right?" He hugged his arms, and Xue Ling's furrowed eyebrows fell in the center of Liberty City: "Holding the entrance to that bridge without making any moves, it's an unreasonable behavior to think about it-"
"You, are you going to cross the Bridge of Miracles?"
The smiling cat, who hurriedly raised his arm and interrupted the conversation between several people with a rapid voice, then asked with a stunned expression, "Just the five of you?" How is this possible? β
"Exploring the Bridge of Wonders is just one of our plans for the future." Duan Qing on the side said with a smile and even more shocking remarks: "Our main goal is to stabilize the situation and try to eliminate the impact that the restorationists are about to have on the Free City. β
"Isn't it for this reason that we went to great lengths to invite you to the Hermit Camp?" Ning Lan, who was sitting on the side, then said with a smile: "If you really want to have a big fight, it will be difficult to do anything with the manpower of the Qingling Adventure Group alone." β
"Material reserves or something is a trivial matter, and uniting all the forces that can be united is the right way." Duan Qing, who hugged his arms, shook his head vigorously: "There are a lot of beams between the second place in the world and us, and the borderless land has not yet expressed its position, as for the Dongcheng Society...... I think we can talk about it again. β
"As long as we can afford to pay for it."
As if asking for a secret opinion, his gaze then met with Snow Spirit Phantom Ice, and the latter who nodded then also looked at the others, and his firm tone seemed to have made a final decision: "Then let's take out a little bit of our hole cards and show them a little bit." β
"Wouldn't two percent be too much? If the people of the Second and Borderlands of the World know about thisβ"
"Anyway, if it's on us, the chances of making a difference in a short period of time are very slim." The eyebrows twitched twice as the eyes closed, and Xue Ling's voice became more resolute: "Rather than putting it on us to have no effect, it is better to take this opportunity to cash in, anyway, if we really reach a deal, we will not have any conflicts in the short future." β
"God knows what the future holds, don't think about the consequences now." Duan Qing also whispered: "The quality and quality are up to each of you to judge, and you can also make changes according to the needs of the other party, in short, set such a combat direction first." β
"We're going to come up with other ways to win over the other throne forces that might be on our side."
The meeting was a sign of an end with this conclusion, and there were faint figures of Sunrise and Gedmayne muttering out of the door of the dilapidated house, and after a brief exchange of words, they also packed their bags and set off for each other's destinations in turn. Before she woke up from the series of information that appeared in front of her before, the chestnut-haired female swordsman named Smiling Cat was also arranged to rest in the room by Ning Lan at this time, and only two people were left in the broken room, and then an unspeakable atmosphere condensed for a while, and finally was broken again with Duan Qing's first action: "How is the investigation outside?" β
"Without the support of the guild, it is very difficult for a person to find out about this kind of thing." In the quiet and dim scene, Xue Lingphantom Ice shook his head: "I can only try to check the sources of some recent information about Fenghua Town...... Of course, it's in the relevant section of the Magic Empire. β
"Someone has indeed seen that Luo Na in the territory of Xifeng County, but this is only three or two months ago." As she said this, her gaze fell on Duan Qing again: "Counting the time of walking and the twists and turns that may occur in the middle, the time is quite right." β
"Could it be the three sisters?" Duan Qing half-jokingly came to this conclusion: "Or is it that fate has developed some new function that we don't know about, splitting one's soul into two or something?" β
"Anyway, it's all game settings, and it's not up to the brain to have the final say."
Gently knocking on the other party's head, Xue Ling's eyes then fell on the other party's gray magic robe: "Of course, I can only agree with 20% of your boundless conjecture...... Well, it looks like there's been another big battle. β
"In order to win the support of Uncle Smiling, I can only solve it in the most simple and fast way." Duan Qing replied helplessly: "Of course, the relevant test can be regarded as an additional gain. β
"Let's not talk about whether your devices are having the desired effect - what's going on with that woman?" Pointing to the direction where the smiling cat had disappeared earlier, Xue Ling's face and tone became unkind again: "Who is she from Uncle Smiling?" β
"The one who came to the door on his own initiative - uh, unknown." It didn't seem to know where to explain better, Duan Qing's expression became much less confident: "In short, she should be able to represent the attitude of the hermit camp, and assistance and the like should have been negotiated, you just need to treat her as a liaison person, and then remember to notify her at the critical momentββ"
The voice that wanted to continue stopped in mid-air, and the gray-robed magician, who noticed something abnormal, then turned his head abruptly, and the figure of the shadow mage Shanaiduo who appeared in this ruined house like a ghost then appeared in front of Duan Qing and Xue Lingphantom Bing's guarded postures, and used his gently swaying arm to disperse the layers of black mist-like energy escaping from his side: "I finally found you." β
"The treatment is complete, you can visit now."
