"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the gates are tighter today......"
On the afternoon of January 27, 795 AH, two cloaked figures appeared near the Tania Council Hall, then took off their hoods and entered the headquarters of the Quacks Guild in Tania City. There are not many people in the station full of ancient martial arts atmosphere at this time, and it seems that they are still busy running around for the life and death of this principality, and even the one who came to receive it was not the scar-faced Broken Wind Thunder, but a certain bearded man who had a relationship with Duan Qing.
"According to the information sent by our people, it seems that you haven't left the city for the past few days, right?" Hearing this, Duan Shanyue didn't choose to believe it, but squinted at Duan Qing with slanted eyes: "Why, as soon as we met, they began to hide from us?"
"Uh...... Aha, you've been under strict surveillance lately. So Duan Qing had no choice but to snort: "Even cats and dogs like us remember so accurately......"
"We don't have time for those kittens and puppies." The second-in-command of Jianghu leaned his burly figure on the seat in the center of the hall, but his eyes crossed the faces of the two: "It's a pity...... You're not a kitten or a puppy. ”
"Can I take it as a compliment?" Duan Qing touched his nose and replied in a low voice, "I actually received your invitation......
"It's a notification."
As if emphasizing something, Duan Shanyue stood up from his position: "If I hadn't come back to ask about the logistics shortage, I wouldn't have sat here waiting for you to come to the door...... What did the eldest brother's message say? ”
"You don't know?" Duan Qing's eyes showed a hint of doubt: "He said...... Now that I know the true identity of Erwuzai, let me discuss the countermeasures together......"
"Really? How did I not know ......"
The bearded man groaned for a while, as if he was recalling the memories in his heart, but finally shook his head, with the same look of doubt on his face: "Maybe I've been too busy outside lately, so something didn't tell me......"
"Really?" Duan Qing asked with a strange face, "Then what is the notification you received?"
"The people of the Wings of Liberty have arrived outside the city." Broken Mountain's face immediately sank: "But it didn't come openly, but it was sent in batches, and among the clues we can find so far, there are probably hundreds of people......
"Our men are retreating." He looked in the direction where the two of them were: "But if you think about a team of more than a thousand people, it will take a lot of time to build the same level of defense, so we need to use something...... Let's procrastinate. ”
"And then you think of me?" Duan Qing pointed to his nose: "Do people know who I am?"
"It's not for you to be clear." Duan Shanyue replied disdainfully: "You just show your face, scare the snake or something, at least let them not act rashly and just survive this time." Of course...... If you want to make a move, we won't stop you, after all, you're good at it! We believe in your strength......"
"Hey, what did you think of me, bomb?" Duan Qing pouted and responded, "What about Graherson? What about the sword of justice? ”
"They're still fighting on the front lines." Broken Mountain shrugged: "Ever since their game was only a team match, the frontline firepower from the Sword of Justice has never stopped, except for those stragglers on the Taloon Plains, they haven't let any of the Imperial Guild forces leak through. I want to ......"
"That's probably why Wings of Freedom smuggled so many people."
"Makes sense." Duan Qing pinched his chin: "But it shouldn't be my turn anyway, I don't have any head-on conflict with the Wings of Freedom......"
"But you have a relationship."
Duan Shanyue smiled: "That woman's ...... It's called Snow Spirit Phantom Ice, right? We've teamed up together in the Emerald Forest, and I've heard you've had some dealings with her later......"
"It can't be from the Wings of Liberty themselves, right?" Dodging the sudden burst gaze of the woman beside him, Duan Qing pressed his head and sighed, "Aren't they afraid of the ugliness of their families?"
"If you are a kitten or a puppy, you can be regarded as ugly, but you are not." Broken Mountain's face sank: "Then that means ...... Do you confess your relationship with her? ”
"No, no, absolutely not." Duan Qing hurriedly waved his hand and explained: "People are the backstage of the Wings of Freedom, the boss of a large company, how can a small person like me climb high...... Right? Aha......"
As if he was secretly appeasing the emotions of a woman beside him, Duan Qing touched the back of his head and smirked for a while, and finally gradually quieted down in the cold hall of the station: "...... So, you want us to be scouts once? ”
"Well, that's a request from a collaborator." Duan Shanyue said with some reluctance: "We don't care about the method, as long as you don't let them make trouble for us before the League Cup is over." The new game will start tomorrow night, and when the time comes...... Most of the leaders and captains, including me, may not be able to be online at the same time. ”
"This is easy to do, won't it be over if you all vote?"
"Fuck off!"
Duan Shanyue snorted angrily, and then hugged his arms: "The unlucky only the Sword of Justice is the family, we don't want to let go of this League Cup, the first position in this league...... We don't want to give it to anyone else. ”
"Just you?" Duan Qing subconsciously retorted: "If I'm not mistaken, it seems that there are only two of you who will enter the next round, and there are only the Broken Wind Thunder family left in the team...... Not to mention the Wings of Freedom, there are even more players in the world who have been selected for the second place than you. ”
"It's all piled up by crowd tactics, how can it be compared to us?"
"Ha, what do you say about the lack of soil in the five elements before? He hadn't even played a non-professional player......"
"Well, that's because...... Are you here to pick up the work or are you here to find the ballast? If you don't want to do it, just leave! ”
"What are you staring at? Defeated ......"
"What do you say? Out-of-fashion players? ”
The intensifying scolding ended quickly in the space of a dozen seconds, and then came to an abrupt end with the two men running out and a heavy door closing. Duan Qing sighed helplessly, and the whisper who had not made a sound finally lowered his arm and showed a strange smile: "Look, don't try such a thing......"
"Alas, sure enough, it's still unpleasant to look at them." Duan Qing shook his head and sighed, "So many years have passed......"
"Do you want to keep trying?"
“…… Let's close the team first. Duan Qing looked up at the clear sky: "This trick doesn't seem to be easy to use."
The proposal in the underground passage a few days ago did not come to fruition as Duan Qing wished, and it seemed that the two options he proposed at that time did not seem to be the right way to solve the existing problem - the underground black market was well connected in all directions, and the area covered almost the entire city of Tania, and it was almost impossible to rely on a few of them to find the hiding place of an unknown target in such an environment. And after the change in the Valia Tavern, the old black camel who had some contact with Hank had no movement, and it seemed that it had been inevitably affected by the search of the city guards in the past few days, and when Duan Qing and the others came over, the shop had already closed early, not to mention people and goods, not even a few traces of similar footprints were left, and it looked clean as if it had never appeared there.
The preparation and promotion of the team was extremely difficult from the beginning during the constant surveillance and search by the guards, so it didn't take long for the Fool Adventure Regiment's plan to fail and then return in vain.
The trip to a library didn't end up happily either, not only because the guards had become more heavily guarded, but also because the huge library, which was nominally the headquarters of the Mage Council, had also been closed for the past few days, and it seemed that the city guards who had been coming and going all day long had to close their doors and not accept customers. When Duan Qing sneaked past several times at the risk of being discovered, all he saw were rows of guards surrounded by rows and a closed gate, which seemed to warn "this forbidden place, no entry and exit are allowed", and at the same time, he was also showing a mocking face to him who had not cherished the good times of the Mage Council before. It wasn't until much later that Duan Qing knew what the reason for the old man Wiggins, who was the curator, to close the door tightly, but now he didn't get anything except a word that he heard inexplicably.
"Break...... The predetermined destiny ......"
This was the word he heard when he approached the library one time, and the voice was somewhat familiar, but Duan Qing, who had been in a mess for a few days, couldn't remember where he had heard this voice for a while, so he had to give up the search for this hindsight target after a period of trying, and instead focused on other places that might provide them with clues. After visiting Queen Maggie's territory again, Duan Qing, who received a certain message, came up with a new idea, and then there was the content at the beginning when he met Broken Mountain.
"It seems that Jianghu really doesn't know anything." He speculated.
"Not necessarily, maybe what Broken Mountain said is true." But he shook his head: "That old guy...... Maybe it's hiding it from your brother. ”
"I don't see any good in it, it's worth it for him to do something like 'concealment', and with the style of acting in a thunderous manner, he won't put up with it to this point." Duan Qing groaned and said, "But they must know the list, and they must also know the news that Hossman is about to nod, so ......"
"They must have sensed something was wrong." Duan Qing said slowly: "I'm probably also making ants on that hot pot now, I don't know what to do."
"I always feel like this is not something that people from Wings of Freedom can do." Yu Liuyu also shook his head and said, "They are too far away from here, it is impossible to infiltrate to such a point, otherwise...... They had already brought down the principality, so did they need to go to such great lengths? ”
"Perhaps, but ......" Duan Qing glanced at each other: "If it's not for them to be in the same stream, who else can do this?"
"The sword of justice? Are they the last enemies? ”
“…… It's not impossible, but it's too. Duan Qing shook his head: "The battle in front is so fierce, and you will tear down your position when you turn around?" How deep does it have to be for the city to do such a mourning thing......"
"That'...... Do you want to test it? In the same way? ”
"Well, I don't need to. Those guys' bowels are not as straight as Jianghu, and the temptation must be more difficult, and I've had some trouble with a few of them...... That's right! ”
"What about dreams? What about Nantieshan? How's their deal? Duan Qing suddenly patted his thigh and shouted, "Didn't that guy claim to know something?" If you dare to lie to me...... Labor must have ripped off all his pants and hung them on his trench coat! ”
"Don't worry, there are still some places in Tania City that I haven't visited." Yu Liuyu couldn't help but smile and reminded: "Think about it carefully, what other key people we haven't looked for ......?"
"I can think of ...... Probably only the Speaker. Duan Qing shook his head: "We have also investigated before, and the guards in that hospital are still very tight, no different from house arrest......
"Where's your little nurse? We can get her to tell the news......"
"Give back your little nurse! She's Slanco's widow. Duan Qing replied with a straight face: "Pamir has been to the Fars Fortress himself, he should know about the deeds of Captain Slanko, although he doesn't necessarily know that the woman is the captain's daughter, but ......"
"Shh......h
The woman whose gaze was fixed on a certain magician in the distance suddenly made a silent movement, and at the same time pulled Duan Qing into the alley on the side: "That man...... It seems to recognize us. ”
"What are you afraid of, didn't he already know us......"
Looking at the cloak that covered him tightly, Duan Qing retracted his words, and then looked at the edge of the alley speechlessly, his expression gradually became a little exciting: "Could it be that a dog's nose is contagious?" You can see it in such a disguise...... Wow! You're scaring me to death! ”
"Sir." The face belonging to the code language Ning Lan immediately appeared behind the two people: "Mr. Nan Tieshan's news has arrived."
"Oh? What did he say? ”
"Those people have been identified." Secret Ning Lan replied in a low voice: "The specific situation, he said that he has already written a message and sent it to you, so ......"
"Wait a minute."
Before the other party could finish speaking, Duan Qing's figure had already disappeared in a gradual blur, and then when a magician's performance passed by the side of the alley, he reappeared in front of the two women: "Okay, the target is locked...... Where are Mengzhu and Xiao Hongchen? ”
"The rest of the team is still underground, do you need to inform them to assemble?"
"No, let's go find them."
Duan Qing's voice had already turned to the back of the alley with his figure: "The other party is really a team, what is the name of the angel's scapegoat, it was buried in Tania City a long time ago, and the name of the president is a bowl of Ganges water, but according to the intelligence, this person is very likely to be just a top bag...... Oh, you probably don't understand that, do you? It's okay, let's go down first. ”
"Before you came, we had dealings with a lot of strange people." In the sound of running footsteps, his voice gradually became low: "Among them, there is a man named Hongshan Lao Dao...... Hey. ”
"It's impressive."
