The hall burning with all kinds of magic lights became a little darker with the appearance of Christine's words. It seemed that it began to slowly extinguish due to the freezing air that diffused around her body. Originally, it was due to a certain
The ordinary alchemy tables that gradually emitted magical light due to the operation of this magic circle also lost signs of explosion as time went by, and together with the surrounding golems and dolls that were also covered with layers of ice and snow, they became
Crystal clear ice sculptures. The hazy light is reflected in the magnificent scene on the surface of these ice sculptures. The only living people standing in the far corner of this hall are also trying their best to use their own strength to resist those clinging to the surface of their bodies.
The biting cold air, and as the man in gray robe who was questioned, his expression became more trembling when facing the great magician: "That, that, I don't know what you mean.
…”
"You know what I mean, Wiggins' disciple."
The white and cold hands gradually came closer to Duan Qing's temples. Christine's smile gradually fell on Duan Qing's face along with her long blue hair, covered with various magic patterns and magic rings.
However, the moment his fingers were about to come into contact with Duan Qing's face, they emitted a biting magical radiance, slowly outlining the dark film covering it: "The magic suppresses the shield, and it uses the power of the emitted medicine.
The shield formed... is a good idea, even I want to express my praise for you."
"Ah hahaha, thank you for your compliment."
The arms frozen on his chest finally showed signs of loosening as the cold air dissipated, and Duan Qing's answer also contained a bit of an awkward smile: "But compared to your strength, mine
This little trick is nothing."
"This is just a comparison of pure magic power. As a new magician, it is normal for you to have a slight disadvantage." Shaking her head slightly, Christine outlined her fingertips.
The gray film was completely torn aside: "But in terms of some sideline alchemy and unknown fields, I am still far behind you adventurers."
"Have you been observing around here?"
Finally unable to withstand the attack and temptation mixed with the other party's polite greetings, Duan Qing shifted the question to a certain direction that the other party had mentioned before: "Have you been staying in Tanzania?"
"Just staying nearby." Christine, who took two steps back slightly, replied in a lazy voice: "Before the farce here doesn't get bigger, I don't have much time and energy to take care of you.
It’s a matter of fact, but...hehe.”
"It's such a rare scene." She turned around and walked slowly through the gaps in the layers of ice sculptures: "I can actually see this Violet in such a miserable state again in my lifetime.
."
"You, do you know this great magician?" The evaporating ice energy began to emit from his body, and Xueling Huanbing, who was also frozen in place while maintaining a defensive posture, also opened his eyes wide: "Are you familiar with each other?
?”
"Members of the Seven-person Council originally had a collegial relationship with each other. We have to participate in the exchange symposium held by the old man every year." Christine's voice came from the distant depths of the tundra: "And
Before that Shana became a formal member, the Lord of Violet before us was one of the formal members of the Seven-person Council."
"It's a pity that because of that incident, she withdrew from the management of the Magic Council." The voice immediately became deeper: "Although many years have passed, this was a big loss to the Magic Council at that time.
."
"...how long ago was that?"
"About a few years ago? I can't remember."
Frowning her brows slightly, Christine answered with a hint of hesitation in her voice: "In short, at that time, she resigned from the management position of the Mage Council and came to live in seclusion in the corner of the empire alone.
, the tower she built was just an ordinary tower at first, but in the end it was the combined influence of other magicians who came here to create the current Violet Tower."
"It turned out to be like this in the end." Her voice was buried in the deep movements again: "It really fulfilled the comment given to her by an old magician before."
"Fate is unpredictable."
As time passed, silence once again occupied every corner of the spherical hall. For a while, there was only the sizzling sound of the frozen air in this frozen world gradually melting, which first broke the ice effect.
Qing then rubbed his body vigorously and hugged Xueling Huanbing beside him: "How is it?"
"...I said you are not an alchemist. Is there no potion that can dispel the freezing effect?"
"That potion does exist, but it's a pity that I didn't prepare it in advance."
Facing the contemptuous and joking look of the white-haired woman, Duan Qing, who helped her body to the table, waved his hand slightly angrily: "And even if I am a prophet, I want to solve the coldness of that great magician.
Cold air is not something that a person of my level can easily create."
"Then you should find a way to make up for your mistakes." Two imperceptible blushes appeared on Xue Ling Huan Bing's face: "For example, using body temperature..."
"Uh...what about Tristan?"
Duan Qing brushed off the topic with an awkward yet polite smile, and wrapped his arms around the other person's chest stiffly, then began to observe his left and right: "Wasn't he still alive and kicking in the distance just now?
Are you going to cheer us up?"
"As he claimed before, that guy is not a combatant." Together with Duan Qing, his eyes fell on an ice sculpture in one of the corners. The corners of Xue Ling Huan Bing's mouth twitched slightly: "So
When faced with this kind of freezing air, his resistance will be much worse."
"It's not our fault. After all, we didn't expect that someone like Christine would suddenly appear." Duan Qing scratched his head helplessly, looking at the ice sculpture and sighed.
He shook his head endlessly: "But it should be fine. Leaving him alone is not a good choice... Hmm."
"We'd better turn to the great magician for help." He took two deep breaths of air, and then took the lead in dragging the two people's bodies towards the direction where Christine disappeared before: "Your Excellency Christine
, Your Excellency Christine? Excuse me.”
The stumbling steps dragging on the ice paused slightly, and Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing, who gradually passed through the group of ice sculptures, slowly cast their hesitant eyes towards the great ice magician.
In the direction of the direction, the figure of the purple-haired woman that the group had tried their best to get close to was now lying quietly in a circular area that was not invaded by the cold air at all, and the figure of Klee who was half-kneeling aside.
Sitin's beautiful faces, almost like sisters, complemented each other: "Is she...still alive?"
"Of course he's still alive, otherwise how do you think the automatic defense matrix here is activated?"
Looking sideways at Duan Qing, Christine lowered her head again and carefully moved her hands soaked in ice blue light back and forth on the great magician beside her: "It's just..."
"But what?"
"Her body is normal, and her magic structure and elemental volume have not been damaged in any way."
Replied in a low voice, Christine closed her eyes quietly: "The damage to the 'Purple Sky Robe' is also very small, and there is no loss to other magic accessories..."
"In other words, her coma was due to another reason, right?"
After saying such words, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was supporting Duan Qing, couldn't help but glance to the side: "Is it damage to the soul?"
"As expected of the dark witch who has stepped into the abyss, she actually knows about soul matters."
She let out two low laughs without raising her head, but Christine's voice gradually became much calmer: "But those are the words that the restorers or people from the ancient magic empire like to use, and we are more inclined to use them now.
Call it spiritual power.”
"Her spirit has been damaged?" Duan Qing immediately shook his head: "No, before that..."
"……What's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing."
Facing Christine's slowly raised doubtful eyes, Duan Qing took back the sound he originally wanted to make. This also made Christine, who was still checking Violet's physical condition,
, the original look of scrutiny in his eyes became a bit more intense: "As I said just now, I need you to provide all the information, including everything you have done during this period, as well as what happened around you, you
Any insights you find valuable.”
"I hope you can provide sufficient cooperation." Her voice became a little colder: "Otherwise... it will be difficult for the Master Council to separate this incident from the suspicion of the two of you, and will take some necessary measures.
action."
Sure enough, reputation and favorability cannot be inherited.
Duan Qing sighed slightly in his heart, and then he collected his emotions: "Well, if you need to know anything about everything that happened in Tanzania City in the past few days, and the trial presided over by His Royal Highness today,
We will naturally do our best to cooperate with you, but "
"Very well, remember what you say now."
Interrupting what Duan Qing wanted to say next, the great magician who put away his hands suddenly stood up, and then, amidst the surprised expressions of Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing, he turned the man next to him
The purple-haired Violet hugged her: "The adventurers below are approaching. This place is not suitable for conversation. I will take Violet to a safer place to rest, and then find a suitable opportunity."
Talk to you."
"Especially you, Xue Ling Huan Bing." Her sharp eyes then turned to the white-haired woman: "Although you can no longer feel those nihilistic and strange auras, you are still our key monitoring target. If
I don’t want to be on our wanted list again…”
"Then just wait here honestly."
"It seems that not all reputation is good reputation."
Looking at the scene where the great magician suddenly disappeared and Violet floating in mid-air left together, Duan Qing sighed: "Not only have we not become friends, but we are still on their blacklist..."
…Ouch."
"Who do you think you are like this because of?" The sudden cry of pain and screams echoed in the corner of the hall, accompanied by Duan Qing's hunched body and his separated body.
Xue Ling Huan Bing slowly retracted her fist: "What's that look in your eyes? Do you still want to quibble?"
"I don't care, I'm going to get you for the rest of my life!"
*******************************
"Okay, this place should be safe enough."
The time came at dawn the next day. In the second-floor room inside the Tanzanite Adventurers Association, the figures belonging to Duan Qing and Xue Ling Huanbing were sitting face to face in the room where the two people were facing each other before.
Inside, he observed the movement of the street he had just passed with slightly relaxed eyes: "Really, now I can't even find a place where I can talk safely..."
"Not only the people of the imperial family, but also some players have begun to get wind of it." Xueling Huanbing, who also let out a sigh of relief, stuffed his recovered body into the chair opposite Duan Qing: "Don't say it's this way.
We have escaped so many pursuers who were secretly watching us, even the Windhawk Tavern is now filled with people from all walks of life whose origins are unknown."
"After all, it is our rebirth point. You can find out with a little inquiry." Duan Qing shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "Judging from the reaction of Tristan who was brought back together, most ordinary NPCs will also
That's where we'll be stationed."
"The only one we can trust now is the Adventurers Association." Putting away her helpless eyes, Xue Ling Huan Bing turned her bright eyes to Duan Qing: "Then..."
"We can finally talk about it now." She stared at Duan Qing in front of her, with even more eager curiosity flashing in her eyes: "What on earth have you done?"
"Don't worry, let me sort it out a little bit." Duan Qing, whose eyes were wandering left and right, responded casually: "Judging from the results, Christine's appearance should be some kind of braking method for the system, maybe to justify herself.
, it may also be to prevent me from having a way to cheat..."
"Hey, hey, can you say something that people can understand?"
"Don't worry, after all, what I want to explain is a bit too hard to believe."
Putting on a smiling expression at the other party, Duan Qing pressed his hands down to signal the other party to be calm. Then his face became tangled with his thoughts, and finally became tangled with his brows.
Wrinkled into a tangled mystery: "And judging from Violet's current situation..."
"The main reason why she couldn't wake up is probably because of me."
