"Through this incident, everyone in the principality has a new understanding of the group of adventurers. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

In the still noisy council hall, looking at the hole, Pamir's voice said softly: "I admit that even a person like me has never thought of allowing adventurers to participate in the highest authority of the principality before, and the previous adventurer bill was just a whimsical idea of mine because of your series of performances...... Well, now that I think back, at that time, maybe I still took balancing power as my first thought, and the so-called adventurer introduction was just a flood that I caused to fight against the aristocratic faction and the commoner faction......"

“…… If you spread such remarks, everyone will spray them to death. ”

"Squirt...... Die? ”

"The jargon of the adventurous world is to be scolded to death."

Smacking his mouth and saying this, Duan Qing simply sat down on the ground next to Pamir: "But since we don't know about it, and now it's like this, there's no point in going back and worrying about those trivial things, and it's not a good thing to add chaos to the current situation...... But in the current situation, will all the people of the principality agree to your proposal? Not to mention those nobles, even those local county lords and garrisons......"

"They will agree, because the so-called parliament ...... It's just an exchange of benefits, that's all. ”

Pamir's voice was still flat and low: "As long as they are given enough exchange, they can even rush over with local soldiers regardless of their own safety, and they are still confronting the Imperial people under great pressure...... Not to mention the aristocrats who hesitated, and the frightened commoners. ”

"That's right, they're all people who have succumbed to the Restoration." Looking at Duan Qing's strange expression, Pamir let out two helpless wry smiles: "On the one hand, for the so-called fate, and on the other hand, for the so-called survival, they have given up their dignity, and at the same time pushed the principality to the point of destruction...... Should I applaud the Restorationists' ability to play tricks, or should I feel sorry for these people in the Principality? ”

"No, it may just be a certainty." Without waiting for Duan Qing to say anything, Pamir shook his head to himself: "It is not the president or the speaker of parliament who leads this principality, but everyone, including you. ”

"It is your choices that determine the fate of this country, and at the same time the future of the principality."

The familiar words sounded in Duan Qing's ears again, waking him up suddenly, but Pamir, who was immersed in remembrance, didn't notice the abnormality of the other party, but still sighed secretly: "Maybe I should be glad that I and the people still have people like you to help, and you and those adventurers who are not afraid of sacrifice have broken this established fate." The aristocratic and plebeian factions do not need me to elaborate too much, they have already felt your great energy from what you have done - the adventurers of the Free Continent are capable of performing any miracle. ”

"As the first witness and initiator, I should accept my responsibility to bring you who have made great contributions into the center of power in the process of rebuilding the Principality." He said to Duan Qing: "Don't hesitate, don't refuse, this is what you deserve, as for those original councilors...... Hum. ”

"They should also shoulder their responsibilities, and at the same time, ......" Pamir's voice gradually turned cold, "to bear their own responsibility." ”

"Didn't you just say...... Did the Restorationists coerce them? ”

The godless murmur suddenly echoed in the pitch-black void in front of him, and then sounded faintly with Duan Qing's voice: "How were they coerced? ”

"You've probably heard about the aristocratic faction from Fortes." Pamir turned his head to look at Duan Qing, who was in an abnormal situation, for a while, and finally answered his question: "And the civilian faction ...... According to Cornelly, he seemed to have received a warning from someone sent by Fortes. ”

"Warning?"

"Yes, it should also be one of the councillors who belonged to the aristocratic faction, and he brought the aristocratic faction and ...... Joint Statement of the Restorationists. "The letter mentions that the Duchy has decided to compromise with the Empire and put a large number of war criminals, including me, in the hands of the Empire, if they do not agree...... Then put them on the list. ”

“…… So explicit? Duan Qing muttered, "They...... Just tied up like that? ”

"Not yet, but the next night...... Two civilian-minded parliamentarians suddenly disappeared. ”

Pamir shook his head and said, "Now...... Didn't get it back either. ”

“……”

Duan Qing didn't speak again, and seemed to be staring at the huge hole in front of him like the speaker, and after a period of speechless silence, the voice belonging to Pamir sounded again: "Of course, we only know now that Fortes did not intervene in this matter, but we can already see that the Restorationists were interested in Tania at that time...... What exactly has been controlled? ”

"It's a miracle to be able to defeat them." He sighed and said, "So I still have to feel ......"

"Cornelly and the other members of parliament should have been in the final council, right?" Duan Qing suddenly interrupted the other party's words: "Didn't he see anything?" ”

"See...... What the? ”

"The anomalies of the aristocratic faction, the anomalies of the parliamentarians, and ...... The president's anomaly. Duan Qing's eyes gradually became sharper: "Even if it's Sumeri...... Even if he had received a warning from the underground black market at that time, didn't he notice even the slightest abnormality in the president's dramatic change at that time? ”

"Who led this incident?" Duan Qing stared at Pamir's face: "You should also have a conclusion now, right?" ”

"Yes......"

Time seemed to slow down with Pamir's hesitation, as if the man had fallen into deep thought, his eyes fluttering back and forth in the pit in front of him, his hands began to shake unconsciously, and his lips began to tremble: "Yes...... They seem to ......"

"Have they all forgotten?" Duan Qing asked further, "Even if Connelly is gone, could it be that Fortes has also forgotten?" ”

"I ...... I do not know. Pamir looked back at Duan Qing's face: "The one who pretended to be the president...... People who should be restorationists, but ...... I...... I ...... before I should have met him in person, but I don't know his real name, his real ......."

"Those whose fate is cut off will gradually disappear into this world."

Inexplicably recalled what an old man had said in his mind, a trace of cold sweat suddenly broke out behind Duan Qing's back, and a series of questions that were originally born because of some kind of recollection were also violently dispersed because of this sign of reappearance, and flew to an unknown distance: "Forget it, forget it, let's skip this matter first, we will continue to investigate the matter of the restorer in the future...... What are you going to do with the next steps for those people? ”

"The parliament of the principality will accept you as a promise, this is a promise made by Fortes."

Detached from that topic, Pamir seemed to regain his former composure, and his voice became fluent again: "As for Connelly...... He said he would find you himself, and as far as I guess, it should be about business cooperation and development......"

"Our regimental commander will be very happy to hear this." So Duan Qing nodded: "I'm happier than hearing the news that adventurers can join the council." ”

“…… Why, don't you want to be a member of parliament? ”

"Of course, we are adventurers, and it is our job to explore the secrets of the Free Continent."

Duan Qing waved his fist in a gesture: "This incident in Tania was originally just a meeting for us, as for the fact that we have been circling in the middle of you old politicians...... Haha, you'd better spare me. I can introduce you to a few people, a few over there are very good, of course, in terms of the experience of power schemes, a few guys from the Sword of Justice can also ......"

"In fact......"

This time, it was Pamir's turn to suddenly interrupt Duan Qing's words: "I called you over today, there is another important matter I want to hand over to you." ”

“…… What the? ”

"The delegation from the Free City is about to return."

Pamir pointed to the wooden table behind him, which was still full of documents: "It seems that they have received a call from the city lord, they are about to leave here, considering the routine etiquette and safety along the way, I hope to send a few people to follow them to the free city, to thank the city lord Van Gaal, and at the same time, to be a witness, to report to him everything that happened here......"

"Hey, you're not going to tell me to go, are you?" Duan Qing hurriedly pushed up his hands: "Who can't you look for, you want to find an adventurer like me?" And it's such an important thing......"

"We are about to start a second round of negotiations with the Empire."

Pamir looked at Duan Qing's eyes: "Unlike the previous surrender-style negotiations, this time it is an all-round negotiation based on the causes and consequences of this war and a series of existing conditions, among the current countries and federations of the free continent, except for those who belong to the principality, they are the only people who belong to the empire...... It's the city of freedom. ”

"This trip...... The success or failure of the negotiation is at stake. He patted Duan Qing on the shoulder: "We are in very poor conditions now, and we are at a disadvantage, and we don't win the support of Van Gaal...... The next step will be difficult, although the Mage Council as a witness will also participate in this negotiation, but they obviously will not take a stand like the Free City, after all, they only have nearly half of the mages on the Free Continent, and Van Gaal ...... is the lord of a city. ”

"In other words......" Duan Qing sighed, "You hope I can convince that city lord to support you?" ”

"At least don't openly oppose my mastery of the principality, at least...... Not now. ”

Pamir slowly stood up: "The current fragility of the principality, you should be extremely aware of everything that happened in the principality, you should also be the one who knows best, your strength is undoubted, and your prestige among the adventurers is also powerful enough, if you are sent to report to Van Gaal...... I believe you can prove our innocence with your own personal experience. ”

"You're the best person to do this." He showed a sincere smile: "Are you interested in accepting?" ”

“…… Trust me, if you put this quest on the Adventurers' Guild's commission board, a whole bunch of people will come running up to you. ”

Slapping the soil on his buttocks, Duan Qing also slowly stood up: "But...... As an adventurer, most of us will accept the commission sent to the door. ”

"Then consider it a commission from our principality." Pamir nodded with satisfaction: "What's the reward...... You can mention it as much as you like. ”

"Whatever?" Duan Qing shook his head: "Don't say anything like this, we adventurers are very greedy......"

"I believe in your noble qualities, after all, you are also my savior." Pamir replied with a smile: "So...... As for the Councillors, even if we advance the rewards for your party, Your Excellency. ”

“…… What, what? ”

"There should always be a proper name for the free city, right?"

Pamir showed a sly smile: "The identity of the parliamentarian ......"

"It should be enough."

"So that's how you took it?"

Outside the side door of the council hall, a certain fat man with a bored face suddenly jumped up on tiptoe: "You want to go to Liberty City?" ”

"What's the matter, Mr. Yang, why are you so excited?" Duan Qing looked at the other party suspiciously: "Is there anything wrong?" ”

"It's not right, it's very inappropriate!"

The fat man shouted loudly, and then, as if remembering something, hurriedly lowered his voice: "Do you know who proposed this idea?" It's the old fox of Fortes! Since he proposed you to the Pamirs, it must be no good! ”

"Fortes...... Proposed me? Duan Qing's doubts became heavier: "And then, so what?" ”

“…… Not so good. ”

Looking at Duan Qing's expression, the fat man said angrily: "Anyway, those aristocratic factions are not good birds, and what they say must not be good!" If you're really determined...... You have to be careful! There must be some invisible conspiracy in this......"

"Okay, okay, I got it."

Reluctantly blocking the spittle spitting out of the fat man in front of his hand, Duan Qing took two steps back quietly: "Is there anything else to say, if not, I'll withdraw first......

"Yes, of course!"

The fat man blocked in front of Duan Qing with a dazzling speed, and then looked at the other party with a solemn expression: "I...... I haven't officially thanked you yet. ”

"Huh?" Duan Qing's eyes widened.

"I want to thank you."

The fat body bowed hard in front of him, and then straightened up with difficulty: "For Pamir, Dusk, and Slanko......"

"I want to thank you for them."
