Although the free world allows players to delete and retrain, there has never been anything like character inheritance or character reincarnation in the game setting, even if it is the most advanced, with a god-level equipment and skills, there has not been any discount in the deletion and retraining. At this time, the Snow Spirit Phantom Ice is a perfect example, she has lost all her weapons and skills and is now no different from a first-level newcomer in a novice village, the only thing that remains on her is probably the character image she has never changed, and the name of the ID on her head.

And it was this ID name that became the heaviest thing she had at this time.

“…… Who are you? ”

"Oh, you shouldn't know me, anyway, I'm just a nobody in a three-fashion club, unlike you, a big celebrity, and a group of people come to hear the news everywhere you go......"

"You're a member of the Wings of Freedom?"

His eyes gradually became cold and sharp, and Xue Ling, who was still sitting in place, slowly spit out a cold voice: "Did Liangchen Meiyu send you over?" ”

"That kind of guild, how could we have anything to do with them?" Dudrunk Duxing grinned and shook his head: "Long before you guys were fighting around in Sky City, I had already been sent to this place where birds don't, and besides, ......"

"We've been here for so long, we've never seen anyone from Freedom Wings here." He looked at the woman's face with disdain, "You Wings of Liberty didn't seem to have done well here before, the former Miss Ice and Snow Goddess." ”

"It doesn't matter to me how they develop that guild." Xue Ling's eyes became much clearer: "It has nothing to do with me now." ”

"Oh? Then you appear in this place...... Is it for any other reason? Lying outside the window, the drunken Duxing raised the eyebrows above the drunken eyes: "For example...... Something like a disc? ”

"I do know that thing."

As if mentioning a certain eye-catching topic, Xue Ling's originally tense face gradually revealed an inexplicable smile: "And I can tell you that the disc has been taken away." ”

"If your mission is to capture the disk, then you can give up now."

The silent silence lasted for a moment as the eyes of the two people inside and outside the window met, and the smile on the face of the player named Drunken Duhuang slowly disappeared, he looked at the cold face of the woman as if it was frozen, and only after a while did he bow his head and wipe his mouth: "Even if you become the way you are now, you are still as sharp and powerful as ever, Your Excellency the Dark Witch." ”

"Not anymore." The woman sitting on the spot tugged at the corners of her mouth: "If you want to avenge someone, now is the best opportunity." ”

"I don't have a grudge against you, I've just heard of your name." Dudrunk and woke up and waved his hand meaninglessly: "I heard that you have also made some fame by relying on those bloody and bloody winds...... I don't want to mess with you. ”

“……”

"Okay, okay, you can't talk nonsense, can you?"

Looking at the other party's gaze, which suddenly became cold again, he was drunk and put away his actions lying on the windowsill: "The disc is gone, and you don't need to ask about the trial, you ......"

"Think of it as an alcoholic who has been drinking too much, and has been talking nonsense before."

The staggering footsteps continued to extend to the depths of the distant village road with the back of the player who called himself a drunkard gradually leaving, and finally disappeared into the dim darkness of Carlo Village together with the players who were still going back and forth in and out of this place, and the snow spirit ice that had been staring in that direction then withdrew her extremely cold eyes, and at the same time retracted her gradually collapsed shoulders: "Alas......"

"Looks like you're in a lot of trouble."

"Hug, I'm sorry."

The body shrank slightly, and the white-haired woman in the shawl looked in the direction where Duan Qing was: "I, I didn't expect it to be like this. ”

"You should learn from me to change your name."

Reluctantly, he put the last crystal glass bottle in his hand on the alchemy table, Duan Qing clapped his hands and turned his head: "It doesn't matter what you look like, at most, familiar people can recognize you, but there is such a thing as a name...... Anyway, how did you get the name of the black witch? ”

“……”

It seemed that an unpleasant topic was mentioned, Xue Ling's expression began to become lonely, Duan Qing, who noticed that something was wrong, scratched the back of his head, but the idea of finding a topic was interrupted by the smile that appeared in front of him at the next moment: "It's okay, it's just some small things, I finally met you, these are no longer important......

"Really?" Duan Qing blinked his eyes slightly embarrassed: "Then how about going to change your ID now?" ”

"What if you don't know me again with a different ID? That's what I'm going to call it! ”

"Alright then, let's ...... Belch...... I'm done with it, so I'm going to find you a place to live......"

"Isn't it possible here?"

"Of course not—nmm."

Looking at the pair of watery eyes that the other party had been looking at him, Duan Qing swallowed back what he wanted to say just now: "That...... Or you can sleep on the bed, and I'll sleep on the ground. ”

"But, is that okay?"

"What's not to do?"

"I, I mean to say...... If we squeeze the two of us, I won't mind. ”

"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"

The violent coughing sound of choking on saliva then sounded by the window of this small room, and Duan Qing's staggered backward figure gradually reflected to the other side of the window, and he continued to wave his hand, and then retreated to the farthest place from the wooden bed with an embarrassed face, and looked at this woman who seemed to have a great change in temperament with shocked eyes: "Still, let's go to sleep quickly, it's been a day of hard work today." ”

"Even if you don't die of exhaustion, I'm afraid I'll be scared to death by you in the end."

The sound of breathing, which gradually became heavier, diffused around this room with the movements of the two people turning their backs to each other, accompanied by the silence that occurred when the embarrassment of the two people who didn't know how to be good gradually turned into substance, and Xue Lingphantom Bing, whose face was flushed, finally took the lead and walked to Duan Qing, who had been sitting in the corner, and slowly put the set of bedding that belonged to the other party on the bed on the other party's body. The humility of pushing back and forth then sounded like nothing in the night sky of the village that was gradually becoming quieter, and at the same time, there was another ambiguous fight between men and women, and Xue Ling, who was a woman and a first-class trumpet, finally lay on the bed slowly with the set of futon at Duan Qing's insistence: "Then, let's talk about it tomorrow, I will definitely find a replacement set of ...... tomorrow."

"No need, you take care of yourself first."

"Well, that's taking care of yourself! And I also have to find a set of my own clothes, and I also have to go out to do task leveling...... By the way, how did you become a magician? Am I going to be a magician? ”

"Practice a basket and sleep first."

Slowly closing his eyes, Duan Qing, who was sitting next to the alchemy table, looked at the white-haired woman who was lying quietly on the bed with gentle eyes, and then the arm holding his cheek with his hand became crooked in the increasingly heavy feeling, and finally collapsed on the wooden table full of glass bottles as he gradually sank into his consciousness - sleep in the free world is one of the necessary survival steps for players, and characters who have not rested for a long time will gradually fall into a state of lethargy under the forced simulation of the system, Forcibly waking up does not do anything other than inflict a series of ailments on the player character, but instead accelerates the simulation process with accumulated fatigue points. Duan Qing, who had already experienced the careful preparation of the previous night and took a group of novice players to play a dungeon for a day, had not rested for a long time before, also became a victim of this setting at this time, and was knocked down on the table by the system's forced sleep for the first time. Usually this kind of time is used by players as a time to rest offline, but players who are forced to fall asleep may enter an unconscious state during this time as if they are really asleep, and to wake up from this state, they can only rely on the player's own physical attributes and potential willpower: "Woo......"

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Me, am I asleep? What time is it? ”

"Woo woo ......"

The low sobs that did not belong to him gradually echoed in the sound in his ears, Duan Qing slowly opened his eyes, and his mind, which had not become very clear because of falling into a deep sleep, then shook back and forth in the blurred vision, and finally suddenly became clear with a certain picture that came into his eyes: "You, how are you ......"

"Woo woo ......"

"You, what are you crying about?"

Two steps to the side of the wooden bed, Duan Qing slowly landed the hands he had carefully stretched out on Xue Ling's tear-stained cheeks: "Didn't you let you sleep well?" How do you ......"

"I, I ......"

With his shoulders shrunk into the bed, Xue Lingphantom Ice looked at the man in front of him with his teary eyes full of shining brilliance: "I'm afraid." ”

"Afraid of what?"

"I'm afraid you'll go."

Her body twitched twice with crying, and Xue Lingbing rarely showed a weak expression that she had never shown before: "I'm afraid that when I wake up, you, you're gone...... I'm afraid it's all a dream, I'm afraid ......"

"Didn't you say I wouldn't leave? Why don't you believe me so much......"

"I'm afraid you're going to leave me again."

Sobbing and saying this, Xue Ling Phantom Bing pulled Duan Qing, who was still comforting him, to the side of the bed: "I have always been alone...... Alone...... I'm scared...... That day...... That day...... Woo whoa, aaaa ”

The sudden loud cry then echoed around the room with the final burst of Snow Spirit Ice, and then became muffled as she buried her head in Duan Qing's arms, and he slapped the other party's back expressionlessly after not moving for a long time, allowing the cry that continued to pass through his soul gradually spread into the night sky in the distance.

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

"I've left Wings of Liberty since you left me that day."

The passage of time as if the days were like years became much faster as the sky became brighter, and at the same time, the crying sound that kept ringing in the ears gradually converged, and Xue Lingphantom Bing, whose emotions gradually returned to stability, then let go of the hands that were holding each other tightly, lying in Duan Qing's arms and quietly speaking: "Of course, Tianxiang Company is too, and so is the Chu family." ”

"Something like that happened, I can't trust them anymore." There was still a calm in her voice after crying: "So...... I moved back to the room we were living in. ”

“…… Are those devices still there? ”

"I convinced the officials of the alliance to keep the equipment for me."

Gently sniffing his nose, Xue Lingphantom continued in a low voice: "But with the situation at that time, it was inevitable that I would withdraw from the guild and the team, so I didn't participate in the League Cup and other professional leagues later. ”

“…… Gave up another championship? The alliance has made another profit. ”

"If that can be called earned."

The corners of his eyes curled slightly, and Xue Lingphantom Ice glanced up at the misty sky outside: "After something like that happened in Sky City, not many players would pay attention to that qualifier anymore, and everyone flocked to the city floating in the sky, trying to catch a glimpse of the highest level of magic during the ancient magic empire. ”

"Castle in the Sky...... Now open? ”

"Of course, after that big version change."

The eyelashes covered with teardrops brushed twice in the air, and Xue Lingphantom Bing, who was nestled in Duan Qing's arms, twisted his body: "Because of your activity, the Tower of Tyranny finally disappeared, and the Mage Council finally became the master of that city, and announced ...... Be a neutral city open to all. ”

"Maybe it's because the plot changed too quickly, and then the free world went through a server update." Speaking of this, she paused slightly: "That suspension lasted for a long time, probably lasted for nearly three weeks or so, and then the game world reopened again, which is now the era of the Great Grandmaster. ”

"The Great Grandmaster Era?" Duan Qing asked suspiciously, "What is that?" Did the Mage Council come up with a name in the head? ”

"No, the players named it themselves." Xue Lingphantasm Ice shook her head and replied, "Because...... Since that update, many players have found that it has become very easy for them to comprehend skills and learn magic, and various sword and magic fusion techniques have become less difficult than before, and they are no longer high-end skills that only professional players can grasp. ”

"An era in which there are many masters and everyone can do martial arts, referred to as the era of the great master."

Forcefully stopped his sobbing movements, and Xue Lingphantom Bing, who raised his head, looked at her with serious eyes: "You ...... caused all this to happen?"

"You should know what caused it, right?"
