"The Mage Council is going to make a move? Please make that clearer......"

"I can't say anything more than that. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Passers-by on the artisanal streets still come and go from the place to the left and right, and the buzzing voices gradually increase, and then along the area where Arrafort Street is located, towards the shops and alleys that extend further away - in today's chaotic situation, there are really not many players who can be busy here, most of them have either set off from this place, or run to the Talon Plains to burn, kill and plunder, and take their last little time in the principality, Burning in front of the country's front. The inhabitants of the city seem to have gradually become scarce as this atmosphere spreads, and in their place more and more guards and citizens are busy in all corners of the city, just like the few shops in front of them, giving their last strength to the city in their own way.

However, unlike the blacksmith shop owners and prop shop owners in front of them, some "international" organizations that have always stood on a neutral position are still standing very steadily in the streets and alleys of the city.

"If I reveal the meaning of the Mage Council...... The consequences are severe. Floating Dream smiled and said, "In case I am charged with spreading rumors, I have a small body...... I can't bear the anger on either side. ”

"But I only see schadenfreude in you." Duan Qing replied with a dark face, "Presumably...... Even if it's a principality, it can't do anything to you, right? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm going to meet President Hossman when I go back."

"Another fox who wants to be left and right? Where in the world is there such a good thing......"

"I said ......"

The murmuring voice suddenly interrupted the secret contest between the two people: "You shouldn't have come to us specifically to show off your might, right?"

"Ah......h

Floating Dream stroked his wrist and sighed, as if he remembered something: "I forgot to introduce you to you......"

He beckoned back, then pointed to the two men walking in the alley and said, "This is our guild's new player, called the four-pointed star...... You should have seen it. ”

"Hello."

“…… Well conducted. ”

Looking at the figure of the man who was wearing a black robe and nodding to him, Duan Qing had no choice but to say hello first: "A very qualified player."

"Thank you."

The man named Four-Pointed Star didn't say much, just nodded indifferently again, but the floating dream in the back pointed to the small shop that Duan Qing had asked about before, and continued to explain with a smile: "Oh, that's it, Catherine's magic spell is still very good, she may be able to solve your problem."

“……”

The black-robed man with the long package on his back did not answer, but exchanged glances with the female player who had been following him, and then nodded neatly to everyone around him again, and walked in the direction of the small shop. Mengzhu in the back retracted his gaze from the direction where the pair of men and women left, and his puzzled eyes gradually rose: "This guy...... It's cold. ”

"The woman didn't speak." The Thousand Fingered Crane also showed a face of gossip: "It's like I don't know others."

"Is that the same when he plays? I didn't seem to see him last night......"

"I did, but I don't think he's like that......"

"Ahem."

Alerting the two people behind him with a cough, Duan Qing also retracted his gaze: "Hmm...... It turns out that you are here to introduce business, it seems that you have a good relationship with the proprietress of this store? ”

"Lady Catherine is a powerful magician, and she doesn't need me to introduce guests." The black-clothed scholar smiled and replied, "It's only us who asks for her sake, she doesn't need our Vizad to help her do anything, although it's ......"

Floating Dream touched his nose: "Sometimes it makes people love and hate ......"

"Huh?"

"No, nothing."

"She's also from the Mage Council?" Seeing that the other party didn't seem to intend to continue, Duan Qing had no choice but to change to another question: "The head of the Mage Council in Tania?"

“…… What the? ”

"The Mage Council must have a stronghold in Tania, right?" Duan Qing spread his hands and said, "Even places like Fenghua Town have your chapters, and in a city as big as Tania, there should always be a place in charge, right?" Although I haven't seen any magicians in the city during this time...... What's wrong? ”

He slowly stopped his words, and then looked at the black-clothed scholar with strange eyes: "Is there a problem?"

"No, that ......" Floating Dream's hand gestured back and forth for a while, and finally withdrew his strange smile: "You really don't know?"

"Know what ......"

As if realizing that something was wrong, Duan Qing looked back at his companions and found that their eyes were full of strange eyes: "Uh...... Well, am I saying something wrong again? ”

"The headquarters of the Mage Council is in Tanya."

Mengzhu covered his forehead and sighed, "Didn't anyone tell him?"

"Uh...... That, that...... I thought Brother Aoyama knew this. ”

"He's a dumb goose, and he has always lacked common sense."

"There's no way, a master like the eldest brother must be hoeing the strong and helping the weak at ordinary times, and it's normal to ignore some details......"

"Come on, he'll be lazy, and he can do a task to the ends of the earth......"

"Stop, stop!"

Seeing that the scene was evolving in the direction of the Criticism Meeting, Duan Qing hurriedly spoke up to stop him: "Isn't it that you just don't know where the Mage Council is?" I can't be blamed for that, I've been around the city for so long, and I've never seen a building as tall as the Mage Council......"

His words slowly stopped again, and a strange light of realization suddenly appeared in his eyes: "Could it be ......?"

"yes, you still go to that place a lot." Mengzhu shouted dissatisfiedly: "It's actually ......"

"Just a few of them!"

A loud shout suddenly sounded at the end of the street, and at the same time there was a group of guards running over: "The suspect has appeared!" Get them! ”

“…… Worst. ”

"Did anyone report the news? Or were the stunned guards from before discovered......"

"Leave those things alone, let's slip away!"

"Hey, hey, wait for me!"

"Let's talk about where to run! If it attracts more people......"

Bang!

The noise flung to the other side of the street with a figure of a guard who had been knocked away, and then spread out towards the far side of the Yar neighborhood with the sound of debris crashing into the ground and the shouts of more guards, leaving only the mess of the ground after the battle and the stunned expressions of the passers-by. The one-handed Floating Dream looked in the direction of several people fleeing, and did not withdraw his eyes for a long time, but the two men and women who had entered the enchanted shop before appeared on the other side of the street with their empty hands, and then silently returned to the black-clothed scholar.

"Done?"

“…… Thanks to you, there is no queue, but ...... It will take some time. ”

"It's okay for you to wait inside."

“……”

"Ugh."

Floating Dream turned his head to look at the face of the four-pointed star, and then walked in the direction of the store: "Originally, I wanted to find a few stores here, maybe they can come in handy in the future, and even if they are poor, they can be sold for a few good prices, but now it seems that ......"

"There's still a lot of variables."

"That person ...... just now" The four-pointed star's expression finally changed a little: "Is it really him?"

"The people in the circle have basically been determined." Floating Dream stopped at the door of the small shop: "However, no matter how much he guesses, he doesn't admit it...... It won't make a difference. ”

"What happened three years ago won't change anything."

“……”

"I know what you're worried about." Floating Dream turned around: "Don't worry, he shouldn't know about you yet, as long as no one chews the root of his tongue, how can he settle the account...... It shouldn't be counted on your head, if there is any difficulty, we can carry it for you first, your task is to make good use of these resources that we provide to you, and then ...... Play well. ”

"Of course, I don't want to be fruitful, because the existing Vizad is not strong enough." Looking at the face of the four-pointed star who was still silent, Fusheng Dream Snatching shook his sleeves and smiled: "You take it and practice first, and we will give you a front, dig up people, prepare weapons and equipment, and then ......"

"Give you the best stage."

He looked at the sky and said in a low voice.

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

"What the hell is going on?"

In the corner of the black market under Tania, the angry voice of a certain little girl is complaining loudly in the dark shadows: "Who is so lacking in virtue! Secretly report us ......"

"There is such a risk in venturing into the city, our hostile state...... Don't blame someone for dealing with us with this. Leaning against the damp wall, he replied with a smile, "But...... Is there any other guild besides the guild called the Red Soul? ”

"Yes, there are a lot of them." Mengzhu leaned against his chin and looked at the sky: "There are many adventure groups that used to steal business with us, and what are the old blind, Jianghe brothers or something...... Hey, in this way, it seems that the rivers and lakes and the sword of justice have had a holiday with us. ”

"If you don't think about someone, they won't compete with a small bank like us." Whispering Liuyu stretched out a hand: "And the principality is like this now...... They don't have much time to calculate us. ”

"That's right! We're in the same boat now! Xiao Hongchen also jumped out and shouted: "You wait, I'll go to the rivers and lakes for a trip, maybe they will give me a face, and then carry two swords for us......"

"No need, you better finish the task we gave you last time."

Duan Qing's voice came from the depths of the passage, followed by his embarrassed face: "I'm back."

"How? See who is following us? ”

"No, but ......"

"The guards in the city have become stronger."

A gentle and beautiful female voice immediately sounded in the darkness behind Duan Qing, and the still spotless blue and white maid costume immediately appeared from the darkness: "I don't know what happened inside the principality, they have sent a lot of people."

"Sister Ning Lan?"

Mengzhu's surprised voice pounced on the other end of the passage with her movements: "I haven't seen you for a long time!" Why didn't you come to see us? ”

"There's something going on at home, so Ning Lan can't leave." The secret whisper Ning Lan replied with a smile, holding the little girl's body but turning in Duan Qing's direction, as if to explain again: "I'm sorry......"

"No, it's okay, it's okay." Mengzhu raised his head from the maid's arms: "You, how did you find us?"

"There is such a big commotion in the city, it is difficult for Ning Lan to find it." The woman stroked the side of her face: "So I followed it and found it."

"How's it going over there?" Duan Qing's voice rang out.

"The number of guards has also increased, and Ning Lan has not been able to enter." The secret whisper Ning Lan shook her head: "And...... As in the city, the faces of those who have been sent with additional hands ...... There seems to be something different. ”

"Oh?" Whispering stood up slightly straighter: "What's the difference?"

"Hmm...... Ning Lan couldn't say it for a while. The maid's eyebrows curled slightly with her smile, "Maybe it's because they're all wearing armor......"

"Armor...... Armour? That's right! Xiao Hongchen on the side suddenly slapped his face and shouted, "We can get a few sets of armor and then blend into the city guards!" In this way, not only can you get rid of the pursuit, but you can also find out who is behind it and see who is causing trouble...... Why are you looking at me like that? ”

"Congratulations to our lower limit responsibility, and finally have a day of enlightenment." As the teammates looked around, Duan Qing was the first to sigh his anger: "It's a pity...... Let's not talk about how to deal with those standard armors, just the ID on the top of our heads is the biggest flaw. ”

"Although NPCs can't tell our names, people who are also players can see clearly." Yu Liuyu also pointed to the top of his head and sighed: "If someone breaks our identity, we will die even worse."

"Who is so bold as to expose our identity?" Xiao Hongchen immediately shouted: "Labor and management want to see it...... What bastards would dare to do this to us? ”

"Come on, who do you think we are, and what do you dare not offend?" Duan Qing said in a low voice, and at the same time beckoned to the others, motioning for them to move deeper into the passage: "Even passers-by dare to shout casually when they see us, let alone those hostile players."

"Hostile ...... Gamer? ”

"A lot of clues prove one thing." In the subtle footsteps that kept moving towards the depths, Duan Qing's voice became deeper and deeper: "There are players who are already standing in the dark team and are in the same stream with them."

The shirtless Xiao Hongchen was about to continue to ask questions, and the sound of neat footsteps on the ground came from the far side of the passage, and then passed by the fork in the road that the team had just hidden, and patrolled farther away. Duan Qing, who was holding his breath and concentrating, put his hand on the hilt of the sword on his waist several times, and then gradually put it down, because the two wandering guards at the end of the passage still did not choose to come over after all.

"Whew...... All right. ”

The sound of letting go of his breath appeared at the same time as Duan Qing's words sounded, and then with his actions and command, it spread out again to the surroundings of the intersection: "Now it's time for us to choose."

"What choice?"

"We still have two options." Duan Qingtou, who was staring at the movement in front of him, explained without looking back: "One is to mix in the sewers tonight, to see if you can find out the identities of those hostile players, by the way...... You can go to the old black camel's shop to have a look, and if you are willing, you may even be able to get epic quality equipment......"

"And another?"

"And one more ...... It's time to go to the headquarters of the Mage Council that you mentioned earlier. Duan Qing patted his head and replied.

"Let's hear what they have to say."
