"Daddy Mac, puppy, yo, trash!" shouted Tao. When the two met, Tao exchanged a series of very fast hand gestures and gang gestures with the two brothers of the other mother. "Oh shit! You're not going to believe what's going on! I'm almost dead! We've got some bitches and knocked out some Jira, it's disgusting, man. ”

"Yes, I'm sure I'm not mistaken. "That's Wang Tao. *** scratched her scar in disbelief.

"Strange things walk on the earth. Gwalker shrugged, equally skeptical.

"Okay!" Hao finished, his voice filled with joy. He hadn't seen anything like it in years. "The various chaos cores of Jira's creatures, 133 cubic centimeters!"

"Yes!" Gwen shook her fist, her eyes glinting with concentric rings of cobalt blue.

"Then put you there," Hao announced.

"So we're at 453 cubic centimeters!" Gwen shouted. She loves to win. She loves to win.

"Oh hell, no way!" Tao was stunned, hugging his two friends.

"Oops!" Mina screamed, mimicking Ariel. "Oh, Mao! I'm almost out of breath!"

"Phew," Petra said, gasping. "I'm very happy. ”

"Fuck it!" Richard held up a hand.

"Dao!"

"Mina!"

"Petra!"

Their hands met in a series of loud pentatonic sounds.

"Gwen!"

Richard hugged his cousin, who reciprocated with an equally fierce hug.

"Everyone!" Gwen left Richard's arm and pulled the others in to form a group. "Cousin!"

"I can't believe you did it!" Papa McKe and the puppy held aloft the jubilant pottery.

"There's peaches at home!" Tao Xing knocked on the ground and began boxing with Mike and the dog.

The crowd around them also applauded and cheered, breathing in the celebratory atmosphere. As Mr. Hao made the announcement, Judge Paris left the podium and walked through the air to the crowd.

The 503CCs system includes a first-place prize! Gwen is delighted. Split into five directions, each with 100 CCs system!

"Congratulations!" Judge Paris's rumbling voice echoed in the clearing. He observed the gathered mages, young and old. No other group raised their hands to compete for the score, and in his experience, the only reason why the first group even exceeded 400 was precisely the core of what they stumbled upon. Seeing that Gwen's team has produced the heart of The Guardian, it's no wonder why the second-placed team was able to retrieve the dungeon's most prized prize effortlessly.

Watching Paris float in the air, Gwen wondered how the female mage did it. It is difficult for a person wearing a piece of clothing to float decently over the heads of the masses.

When the judge came to them, the group paid their respects.

"You're Captain Song's group, aren't you?" Judge Paris folded his hands. "You've had too many chance encounters! You've collected enough materials and cores to fight against five adventuring parties!"

Richard modestly replied, "Sir, we happen to be in a good place. "Gwen does the most leg work. She is our main damage trader. ”

"Indeed, a multi-talented girl. Judge Paris turned his pale blue eyes to Gwen, who looked humbly attracted by Richard's shameless plug.

"Richard is so kind. Gwen held out a hand to her companions. "I couldn't do it without anyone else. If Richard doesn't save me, I doubt we'll keep our belongings. If it weren't for Mina, she would have been so hurt that she couldn't continue. Petra also rescued me from confiscation on more than one occasion, and Tao also played a major role in our defeat of Old Man Jira. ”

Paris nodded in satisfaction.

"Great, Ms. Song. We need a mage who is more focused on teamwork and less concerned about their individual status," he said with appreciation. "I'm looking forward to the future of you and your team. Please present your student ID. ”

Gwen and the others pulled out their cards.

"With the power that these two towers have given me, I now grant you £91 and an additional 50 cubic centimeters"

"Stop!"

All who heard the order were stunned by the clamor of exclamations, especially Judge Paris, whose face immediately became gloomy and angry. Who would dare to interrupt him in the middle of the announcement? He is one of the twelve chairs in the Pudong Building!

More than three hundred pairs of eyes turned to see a group of mages making their way through the crowd to Gwen and her companions.

"Well, hell. Richard's face stiffened. "It's the Xiao family. ”

The congregation consisted of both Xiao Huyi's familiar faces and his angry group. Their assembly consisted of an elder who exuded a palpable aura of power.

Judge Paris grimaced and turned to Gwen and her companion.

"If it's a private matter, I'm afraid I can't interfere," Paris declared exasperated. "Be careful when dealing with old families. They have deep roots and are intertwined. They even have their own factions within the Chinese Communist Party. ”

"By the same standard, if you're not part of the Chinese Communist Party, we can't mediate," *** said in the same exasperated tone. Next to the mage, Gwalker affirmed ***'s statement. "But we'll make sure they don't make any drastic moves. It is likely that they are here to get their 'face' back. ”

So far, opposition parties have reached Gwen and her group.

"I'm Xiao Liangtian, the Grandmaster of the Xiao Clan," the Archmage announced. The mage looked to be in his forties, and if it weren't for the suit and leather shoes, he would have looked like a finishing touch.

They bowed their heads in front of Paris, who returned their greeting.

Gwen and her team had to take a bow. There is a place where you can kill and rob, but it is politeness and etiquette that make civilization.

Liang Tian declared, "You tortured and robbed our heir disciple Hu Yi. ”。 This is not a question, but a statement of facts. "Your illegal actions forced him to withdraw from the game. We demand compensation. ”

Gwen's team fell into a tense silence. They could play a video of Juy being ashamed, but that seemed to make things worse right away.

"You will be confiscated. Liang Tian continued. Behind the shriveled mage, Howy's eyes licked greedily at Gwen and Petra, delighted with every word spoken by the mage of his family. Watching the girls squirm indecisively, he felt much better, as he cried and cried until his grandfather was forced to act.

"What if we didn't?" Gwen felt an inexplicable calm, slowly overcoming her initial nervous anticipation.

"We give Hu Yi's team ten times what you have done, right here," the little magician said arrogantly. The aura of distorted, unrecognizable power around the magician suggests that he can indeed complete the task without much effort.

"Tian, save me some face," Judge Paris felt he should at least try to intervene. "It's a children's competition, don't you think it's a shame for you to participate?"

Liang Tian spat and said, "These are not children. "They are foreign devils, imperialists. They have no morals. You should have heard what Richard and Gwen did with this song. Who can defend it?"

What the. This one. Sexual intercourse. Gwen wanted to scream and kick the old man between his legs. Fucking hypocrisy!She should have let Caleban let go in the man's face!Best of all, they were only a second away from getting the CCs system!She felt the haze of anger overwhelm her judgment and was about to launch a fierce tirade when Mina suddenly pulled up her sleeves.

"What is this?" Gwen visibly gasped, trying not to let her boiling resentment overflow.

Mina pointed her eyes at the crowd.

A familiar face grinned at them.

"Uncle Jun?" said Gwen. Has he been here all along?

The crowd dispersed, and just as Moses, the third wise man of the East, had parted the Red Sea, the army came toward them.

"Captain Jun", Liang Tianyin's tone was cautious.

Jun greeted Paris kindly, then walked over to Gwen's group. The chattering crowd fell silent. Most of them knew about Captain Song Jun, who was fame before him.

"My niece. Jun pointed at Gwen. "Beautiful view, isn't it?"

"My other niece. Joan patted Petra on the shoulder.

"Although they are distant relatives, they are still family, not to mention the favors I owe him. Joon shook Richard's hand. "Thank you for taking care of these girls. ”

"It is my duty and my honor, sir," Richard thanked his distant uncle.

"The Song family is arrogant," Liang Tian frowned as he warned Jun, "Do you believe that a prominent family like us would be afraid of MSS? You are just a dog of the CCP, if you bite the hand that feeds it the treasury, what will the party think?"

Jun didn't seem to care about the insult.

"I'm waiting. He stood nonchalantly. His handsome demeanor was cold.

"Wait?" Liang Tian scanned the horizon. What was that guy waiting for? Reinforcements? "For what?"

"Let you try it. "Go on. Jun's eyes were filled with laughter and mockery.

"You!" Liang Tian felt his patience crumble. "Arrogance!"

"Mr. Paris is a busy man. Joon sighed and opened his arms helplessly. I know, I know. Go ahead. ”

His words speak for themselves to all who turn their eyes to them. Jun tells the Xiao family to either shit or fuck off. But how could the Xiao family disappear like this? It was they who provoked this quarrel. How can they lose face again? It's like being slapped in public.

"A terrible silence descended between the audience and the two sides.

"You don't dare to attack us", Liang Tian's threatening words were not so much a refutation as a comfort.

"One has the right to defend oneself, doesn't it?" said Jun, turning to Paris, and Paris smiled from ear to ear, enjoying the show. "Am I right?"

"According to Article 13 of the Tower Governance Clause, Article 3.4 on the use of magic by the public, Captain Song does have the right to defend himself legally," added Margs Sea. "Captain Song, if this matter is tried in court, I will be your witness. ”

"Me too. Maggs Gwalker also voted for him. They are all part of the progressive wing of the CCP that opposes conservatives.

Liang Tian's beard trembled with hesitation, and he seemed to be torn apart by heaven and earth.

"How about this?" announced Jun. "We could have had an old-fashioned, friendly 5 out of 5. If our child wins, forgive and forget. If we lose, our team will lose all of our CCs system. ”

The proposal was reasonable, so Liang Tian turned around to see what his family's young mages thought of the proposal. A successful bid would not only restore their honor, but also teach these nouveau riche a lesson.

But when he turned to look at his heir, Liang Tian's heart sank like a grinding plate.

Joy's face turned white, like freshly ground flour. The others behind him had the same intimidating expressions. One of the mages, the soothsayer, was visibly trembling with fright, trying to suppress his acid reflux.

Master Xiao turned his head to look at Jun's team of young mages.

For the prospect of 5 five 5, the water magician looks more confused than anything else. The stunning brunette woman, the Mineral Mage, seemed indifferent to the news. Thankfully, both the magician and the healer have a mildly worried look on the human side. The most worrying sight is the Void Witch, who is also said to possess lightning, and her face is full of bloodthirsty desire.

The juxtaposition makes the outcome of the match speak for itself.

At the unwelcome moment of clarification, Liang Tian felt as if he was 10 years old. He felt old, tired, and tired. His generation struggled to collect scarce resources, orchestrate marriages, replace the Communist Party, and hoard old technology. What do they have to show off? Isn't it so that their descendants can walk among insects like gods?

Here they are, these Xiao scions: insects.

Liang Tian felt that the epiphany had been hollowed out. Hopefully his brother's children are doing better.

There is also Captain Song's question. Liang Tian wasn't quite sure he could defeat the famous evoker. If he loses this battle, then Xiao's reputation will really be ruined.

"I retract my statement. Liang Tian turned to Jun. If the Shaw family wants to lose face, then don't linger in front of the public like a stench. "We don't want further conflicts with the Song family, nor do we want to have a conflict with the ash makers themselves. ”

Gwen looked at Jun's wide, carved back. What an ominous title. Is Jun a fire mage like Alesia?

Xiao Jun stretched out a hand and hesitated for a moment, Liang Tian shook it.

"Our Patriarch will personally thank Grandmaster Xiao. Jun held the mage's hand tightly. "I hope you don't mind if we go for a visit and bring some simple gifts. ”

"The gift of peace is sufficient. Lord Xiao and Jun parted ways, "Although you are always welcome, I want you to know that Lord Xiao's generosity is well-founded. Your nieces are also very popular. ”

Paris gasped.

and Gwalker gasped.

As the tension spread, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Judge Paris turned around and raised his hand.

"Our winner!Enter at the rate of 453 copies. With the power given to me by Pudong Building, I will now give each of you 141 cubic centimeters!"

A surge of jubilation poured out of the crowd and spread among the cheering crowd of mages. Gwen was overwhelmed by the sudden outburst. If it weren't for the intervention of the Xiao family, their reception would have been more dignified, but now they have reached the center of the end of the incident.

She turned and bowed in each direction. Richard raised his hand to the screaming girl in the crowd. Mina looked at her unhappily, thinking about kicking the elated magician. Tao Yuanming marched back and forth when he won a boxing match, giving the crowd a generous high-five. In the crowd, Gwen could see Fei, Master Xu, and Felicity, also waving frantically to them and cheering.

The Xiao family took the opportunity to be distracted and hurriedly retreated, not wanting to lose face again.

As the excitement subsides and records begin to swap with each other, Gwen and her team finally find themselves alone. Within an hour of the end of the dungeon, they were asked to shake hands, greet and communicate with hundreds of other mages. Gwen's message device, once abandoned, now holds the names and titles of hundreds of strangers, whose faces she can't remember.

Gwen is the most memorable. She is a Void Lightning Witch with hazel eyes. But for Gwen, her new friends are a large group of monosyllabic, disyllabic, and trisyllabic ambiguous meanings. To avoid future faux pas, she must spend a lot of time getting counseling from Mina, putting faces and clans on the contact entries.

By the time the party finally ran out of social fees, it was already afternoon.

Jun showed them his boarding pass.

Passengers use the rest of their time to socialize, exchange goods and commitments, which is just as painful. Still exhausted from only a few hours of sleep, Gwen hid in the corner of the upper cabin with her eyes resting, and soon found herself dozing, her sleepy head hanging over Jun's shoulder.

Mina also took the opportunity to take a nap on the unsuspecting Richard.

When Gwen woke up, it was already evening. In the distance, glowing Shanghai looms, its blinding reflection piercing into the dark waters of the South China Sea like a dagger.

Not Sydney, but she's at home.
