"You brought someone with you today."

“…… Who? ”

"A man named Yoshitsumi Miyu...... You don't know him, do you? ”

"Oh, that guy, of course I know...... What's wrong? ”

"He offered to see me, and ...... Some interesting proposals were made. ”

"Hmph, let me guess...... It's a great idea to make it interesting for you to be interested right now, isn't it? ”

"Yes, but ...... Before agreeing to his proposal, I need to confirm one thing with you. ”

“…… What the? ”

"This isn't the first time you've met, is it? Before you ...... Is there some other area of cooperation? ”

“…… Well, well, I'll have to admit that. We didn't cross paths much, but I did reach out to him a few times, though he himself may not have known it, and may have been aware of it......"

"Why?"

"Because...... He's been very helpful with our plans. ”

"Is that so?"

"What, don't believe it? It's actually a very common thing, because we have a lot of intersections in our past history, and I've seen the resume of that guy, and it's a guy who has a good chance of success......"

“…… Whatever you like, but it's best not to spoil our big things. ”

"Big deal? Are you referring to the Alliance? Forgive my clumsiness, I really don't see anything big in front of people like us...... Build another natural park? Re-signing an agreement with the Freedom Wings Club? Or is it ...... Invite the big guys of the alliance to have another drink? ”

“…… You know what I'm referring to, but he's escaped now. ”

"Believe me, even if he stands up again, it won't have any impact on the current Duan family, it's been so long, even if you don't consider your and my business ......"

"Don't be careless just because it's impossible, after all, the current alliance is not completely in our hands, the trouble of the Lou family is a warning, those other families must have also noticed our actions and purposes......"

"It's late, it's late, it's too late, we've touched the roots of the free world, and we will soon be able to break through the limits of ordinary players, and you want to share the victory and defeat with us in this world......"

"They'd better wait until the next virtual world to try again!"

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

What happened in the high-rise building on the night of June and 26, 2132 turned out to be little known to anyone else, and the results didn't seem to have had a big impact on the rest of the free world, as it didn't take long for the number of players to exist in the free world to get smaller and smaller as expected, and put aside what they were doing.

The new round of qualifiers arranged by the league has finally begun to be put on everyone's agenda as time passes.

With the end of the last round of the League Cup and the opening of the new version, the level of players in the free world has also begun to enter a new era, due to the increase in the level ceiling, the ability to improve has also begun to be like a drop of water through the stone, slowly placed on the table of the game world, taking place in the free world large and small battles, in fact, it is also an attempt by players after getting new character strength and equipment, this attempt is also with the upgrade of the battle in the game world, It gradually evolved into a war in which several guilds competed on the same stage, just like Fenghua Town. Although there were all kinds of anomalous elements mixed into it, the war that night still allowed most of the guilds and clubs to figure out each other's strengths, and at the same time, it was also considered to allow the game grievances that had appeared before to settle the game as early as possible before the game started, but the result of this hasty battle was actually not accepted by most people, especially most of the members of the coalition army, who obviously disagreed with their decision and reason to withdraw from Xifeng County and not continue to conflict with the restorers for the time being.

However, for various reasons, many of them have a greater opinion of their own family members than their opponents, the wings of freedom.

"It's all Wizzard's fault! Their command is very problematic! With the superior strength of the Mage Council in his hand, he ended up fighting like this......"

"It's obviously the fault of the sword of justice, they are the biggest colander! Except for a foolish president, they were cooked with almost no soldiers! “

"Don't say it, this pot should be carried by the rivers and lakes, and there are so many masters who don't need it, so you have to arrange a group of second-tier members to rush into people's formations...... Did those carriages make a difference in the end? ”

"Of course there are achievements, didn't you send a few traitors in the end? So if you talk about why the coalition failed in the end, how could you ignore the few people of the Fool Adventure Band......"

Similar controversies with the battle reports released by the major war zones after the end of the Battle of Wind Flower Town, little by little occupied the topic of discussion among players, and the spearhead that pointed directly at the big guilds and professional players also caused countless scolding battles, tearing the already broken covenant more difficult to heal, these scolding battles targeting some specific players and guilds often pull from the original free world to the more ancient grievances, and finally "see you in the arena" as the eternal finishing technique, At the same time, the various members of the discussion who participated in the discussion, with their respective supporters, were once again divided into advocates and opponents under each name.

However, there are some people who are always unexpected, such as the Wings of Freedom, which has gained fame again since the Great War, and the Fool Adventure Party, which had no supporters before, and still has no supporters.

"Looks like ...... Our traitors have almost been nailed into the cracks of the stone. ”

Holding a glass of juice in his hand, Mengzhu, who was clasping his cloak, sighed unconsciously: "It's like if it weren't for us, that battle would have been won......"

"In a way, the previous battle was between the Restorationists and the Mage Council."

Standing in the corner of the alley beside her, Duan Qing replied in a deep voice, "Just like those keyboard warriors said...... If it was we who caused the defeat of the Mage Council in the Temple, then the responsibility for the defeat naturally rests with us. ”

"But, but ......" Meng Zhu, who raised his head, looked at Duan Qing's face: "But you didn't do it alone, there are so many players present......

"But it's us who play a key role." Duan Qing spread his hands meaninglessly: "Or compare your Sister Xue...... People who are nominally Wings of Freedom, so what is wrong with helping their own people win this battle. ”

"You, are you from our regiment after all!"

So the little girl jumped up with the cup in her hand: "Why do you always help outsiders talk?" And, moreover...... I don't believe that Sister Xue would do that! ”

"Then you will believe it...... Would I do that? ”

said something that made the other party speechless, Duan Qing on the side lowered his head slowly: "If you can't tell the unexplained things, don't pursue it any further, in the end, it's not that we rose too fast in the past, and now we are being targeted by people with ulterior motives......"

“…… That's it. After staring at Duan Qing for a long time, the little girl finally lowered her head: "Since those people don't like to be reasonable, then let's stop paying attention to them." ”

"Oh? Looks like you've got a plan. So Duan Qing raised his eyebrows with interest: "Let's talk about it." ”

"Do you need to say it? To participate in the league's qualifiers, of course. ”

The cup in her hand swayed back and forth in the air for a while, and the little girl was finally reluctant to throw away the juice that had not yet been drunk: "If you want to break the bad impression of outsiders on us, it is undoubtedly the best way to have a good result, so I have been paying attention to the competition recently...... This time, it seems that there are a lot of non-professional players participating. ”

“…… Probably because the advantages and threats of professional players are not as strong as they used to be. Duan Qing shook his head senselessly: "Or maybe the environment of the free world gives them enough confidence...... In the previous rumors, wasn't Han Sanshi of Lanshan about to retire? ”

"Lanshan's official has come forward to clarify this matter, and the 'Sky Barrier' Han Lei will not retire yet." Mengzhu immediately shook his head and replied, "And...... He doesn't seem to have given up on his dream of winning the title, and he claims to hold on until the next UEFA Cup. ”

“…… Hmph, old fellow. So Duan Qing sighed and chuckled twice: "Presumably, before the wind breaking thunder in the rivers and lakes is retired, that guy will definitely not let go." ”

"Among the other strong team news, there is another thing that people are more concerned about." Mengzhu's voice became even lower: "The official announcement of the second in the world is that the whispers will participate in the battle as their team members......"

“…… Oh, that doesn't really sound like good news. Duan Qing's laughter paused: "Let her go, if she likes it......"

"You, you, you, can't you explain a little?" Mengzhu hurriedly jumped up: "I wanted to ask before, although Sister Liuyu's name has not been removed from the registration list of our adventure group......"

"Really?" Duan Qing wiped his mouth: "Didn't I explain?" Forget it, anyway......"

"You just think it's the pie that God is going to smash on our heads and take it back again."

“……”

Standing in place and hesitating for a long time, the little girl finally gritted her teeth and nodded: "Since this is the case, then it is good to regard it as our self-improvement, at least ...... At least...... Hey, I'll ask first. ”

She looked at Duan Qing's smiling eyes, and finally asked cautiously, "You, you will participate, right?" ”

“…… I? ”

Pointing to his nose, the smile on Duan Qing's face gradually disappeared into the action of bowing his head: "I...... I guess I won't be able to participate. ”

“…… Yes? Mengzhu's questioning voice was so long: "Then, what about Sister Ning Lan?" ”

“…… I know you want to make a name for yourself, but just show your face. Looking at the little girl's pitiful eyes, Duan Qing couldn't help but laugh again: "If you really want to fight your way out of that large number of demons and monsters, you need to pay much more than you imagined." ”

"I, I know! So I asked the Salted Fish King to bring over all the stuff we did in Tania. Mengzhu hurriedly waved his arms and said, looking like a child who was secretly buying a popsicle without telling his parents: "When the time comes...... We can let you and Sister Ning Lan pick it first, if there is anything good, you can take it......"

"Hey, don't talk like outsiders." Duan Qing waved his hands rather amusedly: "We just had to leave for some reason, and we have no intention of leaving......

"So, then why don't you participate?"

"Of course ......"

Touching the other party's head helplessly, Duan Qing's figure began to move away as he gradually stood up: "It's because of some more realistic reason." ”

There was a call from the little girl who was getting farther and farther away in his ears, his steps kept shuttling around the street, and then in the results that the surrounding players and restorers did not notice in the slightest, he came to the edge of the cliff like a leisurely stroll, and the magnificent scene belonging to Fenghua Town was accompanied by the goose feather snow that fell again, showing on the edge of the cliff street in front of Duan Qing, he watched this beautiful scene alone, and after a long time, he gradually murmured: "It's really ......"

"What a wonderful world."

"yes."

The faint sound of footsteps then sounded behind his ears, and at the same time appeared the same white figure belonging to Lorna: "I haven't seen such a beautiful snow for a long time." ”

“…… How is Richard's injury? ”

"It's almost, but it's ......"

"How?"

"The power that caused those wounds...... It should come from the void. ”

"The Void...... Ha, why wasn't I surprised in the slightest? ”

"I've tried to help him get rid of most of it, but his thread of fate is a lot more fragile than before, so ...... If it is not necessary, it is better to keep him away from those people in the future, and not to continue to get involved in this matter. ”

"I don't know why he came, maybe he discovered the anomaly of the bomb that exploded in the hilltop square? Or maybe the Restorationists' plans were discovered? ”

"As far as I know, the knowledge known by the Restorationists has not reached the level of emptiness, and there should be someone behind the scenes when something like this happens."

“…… It's them, right? ”

“…… It should be, including before, Nina and I were always found to flee by the Restoration, and now I want to ...... It's also not normal. ”

"Nina ......"

Glancing back at the little girl in the white robe who was huddled behind her holding her staff, Duan Qing showed a bright smile, and then fell on Luo Na, who was like everyone with her arms folded: "For a long time in the future, I may not be able to stay here anymore, I hope ......"

"Those of you who survived can have a good tomorrow."
