Trouble has come to the door. This was probably the original intention that Emperor Drenier wanted to express in this series of words. However, it was only after the two people returned to the Anfu Rose Tavern that they expressed their feelings towards the emperor of the empire.
has a more intuitive understanding of its meaning.
The tavern seemed to be in ruins.
"Put out the fire! Put out the fire quickly! We need more water sources. Go bring five more buckets of water!"
"Boss, we have rescued everything that can be salvaged. All that is left is the property at the winery. The situation there is very serious..."
"Don't worry about the winery for now! What's important is the people! Are there any other guests stranded inside? Continue the rescue!"
"Yes, it's such a big fire"
"The Amfleet family has not suffered such serious insult and loss for a long time."
Standing in front of the fire with her arms folded, Robin, the proprietress of Anfu Rose, finally put down her fingers that had been directing her men to run back and forth: "These bastards...do they really think we have lost it?"
Have they lost the dignity and glory of the imperial nobility? Do they really think we are easy to bully?"
"Go and inform Yunette, we will not let the murderer go." Her eyes flashed with a fierce light that was different from the past: "Let them prepare, this time... we will not sit idly by and give up.
."
"yes!"
"Huh...damn it."
Looking at the backs of the last batch of subordinates who left him quickly, Robin, who was standing in front of the fire, slowly let out a breath, and then turned to face Duan amid the footsteps approaching from behind.
Qing and Xueling Huanbing gradually approached: "You're back? I'm sorry for letting you see such a situation. It's because we didn't treat you well."
"No, your hospitality is very attentive." Duan Qing raised his hands to cover the strong heat wave that hit his face, shook his head and then replied in a deep voice: "On our part, we have received a lot of care from you during this period, but in the end
But it brought such trouble..."
"This has nothing to do with you. It's because those imperial nobles have gone too far this time." Pointing at the tavern in front of him that had burned into a ball of fire, Robin's face with clenched teeth disappeared until he lowered his head.
Among the actions: "They deliberately chose this time of day to set fire when there were few customers. The meaning of warning is greater than the meaning of destruction."
"Speaking of which, it seems that your two other teammates have never come out." Her eyes gradually straightened, and her words were full of worry: "And that lady, she"
"They didn't come out, did they?"
After saying the last half of her sentence for her, Duan Qing, who had already stepped forward, took out several bottles of potions of different colors from his gray magic robe. His movements without any emotion then passed through countless people.
Among the people rushing to put out the fire, they came to the front of the burning tavern where the heat wave and the fire were intertwined: "Okay, you don't have to worry about the lives of my two teammates for the time being."
"But Violet must still be saved."
The crystal glass bottles shook and vibrated violently in the air. The sudden sound of magical vibrations caused by the collision also attracted the attention of several of the surrounding Amphlett family men. The actions and words that wanted to warn of danger also suddenly appeared one after another at the next moment.
He was gradually stunned by the rising light, and was replaced by shouts of surprise: "What, what is this?"
"Is it a snake? No, no, I seem to have never seen a snake with horns..."
"It's magic! And it's shaping magic! This creature is condensed with water element magic, but there are so many water elements."
"It's coming down! Get out of the way!"
Blue water flows that were completely different from the firelight gathered in the air to form the shape of a long dragon. Amid the screams of countless passing people and players, they kept hovering over the fire-filled tavern. The water flow was led by Duan Qing.
The magical radiance that flew out of his hand finally condensed under his will and became wider than the pillars of the hall, leading the huge long dragon to rush straight down directly above the tavern: "Akras
"Two Type"
"Water Dragon Break!"
Boom!
The heavy bombardment completely covered the roar of the blazing fire. Accompanying it was the sight of the long, circling water-colored dragon instantly bombarding directly above the tavern surrounded by flames. Duan Qing's right hand waved downwards heavily.
The winding dragon swooped into the ground and then swallowed up all the flames that were still raging a moment ago like a tide falling from the sky, and then turned into splashing water droplets and vaporized white steam towards the surroundings of Amfret Street.
Spread out. As the crowd who had no time to escape climbed up from the ground with their own coughs, the figure belonging to the proprietress Robin also slowly stood up from being blown down by the airflow, still looking for the gray streak.
The surprised gaze of the robed magician's back immediately fell on his left front, where the back of the white-haired woman who had already swept out of his side said: "You guys"
"over there."
What answered her was Duan Qing's low prompt, and his same pace of running towards the location of Xue Ling Huan Bing: "Is she still alive? She should still be alive, right? Even in a soulless state, I remember that she is a little self-conscious.
The awareness of protection comes..."
Between the dilapidated tavern that was instantly extinguished by the water dragon, he appeared directly under the balcony on the third floor and slowly stopped. The purple-haired figure belonging to Violet also appeared in the crumbling area.
Among the charred ruins, Xue Ling Huan Bing staggered out with support: "..."
"It's okay, it's okay." Looking at the traces of magic gradually disappearing around the outline of the purple-haired figure, Duan Qing let go of his last breath with relief: "As long as you are still alive."
"It's good to be alive."
***************************
More and more people began to gather next to the dilapidated ruins of the tavern, accompanied by more and more people yelling at their throats, and Violet had been rescued from that place.
Duan Qing also moved the survivor to a sparsely populated alley early at this time, using various potions to treat each other's injuries: "I don't know how much smoke was inhaled, but the person is still awake.
, I don’t know what magic she used just now to be able to protect herself in such a fire until now..."
"Don't forget who she is. She's not called the Great Magician for nothing."
Throwing another exhausted potion bottle on the ground, Duan Qing, shaking his head, replied in a calm voice: "If he hadn't lost most of his independent personality, this attack might not have been successful at all."
"This attack... was carried out by opponents among the imperial nobles, right?" Snow Spirit Huan Bing, who was waiting on the side, also frowned: "Are they coming from this Ms. Violet?"
"I don't know, but judging from His Majesty the Emperor's tone... it should be so."
The raised hands exuded a magical radiance as a new bottle of healing potion was used. Duan Qing's voice still remained unimaginably calm: "He should have said that after getting the news. He
The imperial nobles in Redcar have probably been observing this place for a long time."
"So, what is the identity of this young lady?"
In the scene where the crowds around were still running back and forth and shouting, the figure belonging to Robin slowly walked over: "To attract such a lot of hatred, the background must be extraordinary, right?"
"What, Tristan didn't tell you?"
"The relationship between that guy and our Anfulite family is not that good. Make no mistake." She waved her hand angrily, and the voice of the former proprietress of Anfu Rose Tavern became impatient.
Get up: "Although in line with the dignity of the imperial nobility, we will not give up easily on the upcoming mission..."
"This is an important person who came from Tanzania with Tristan, the kind of person who can play a key role in the troubles we are in." So Duan Qing could only helplessly shake his head and point in front of him with his eyes closed.
Violet's face: "As for her identity, how could she provoke someone who would kill her even if she set fire to it?"
"Sorry, we don't know yet." He looked in the direction of the hill where the imperial palace is located in the distance: "If His Majesty the Emperor doesn't say anything, there is nothing we can do."
"...I understand." Robin, who seemed to understand the meaning of the other party's words, nodded at Violet, then changed the topic: "Speaking of which, these people are here for her, right?
?”
"Anyway, they didn't come for us." Xue Ling Huanbing replied expressionlessly: "Those who came for us must have exhausted their abilities in the past few days and in the main hall today."
"Since you returned safely today, you must have overcome this trouble, right?" Robin, with his hands on his hips, shook off his dusty curls: "With the skills you just showed, they should
I don’t dare to deal with you openly anymore, right?”
"No, we are just a few ordinary adventurers." Duan Qing waved his hand in vain: "The spell just now consumed almost all the high-level magic I have refined in recent times.
Level potion...well."
"Speaking of which, we are about to fall into an economic crisis again." He stood up and glanced in the direction of Xue Ling Huan Bing: "If we still can't find a way to make some money, let alone alchemy, we are here
I’m afraid I won’t be able to survive in the city.”
"It's not your fault that your alchemy is too expensive." Xueling Huanbing glanced at the other party: "Tell me, what kind of crooked idea are you going to use this time?"
"When have I ever used crooked ideas to make money?" So Duan Qing tilted the tip of his nose to one side in annoyance: "And this is your home court. Shouldn't you answer this kind of question yourself?"
"..." Pouring his lips, Xueling Huanbing, who was silent for a moment, finally sighed helplessly: "Okay, if this is your wish..."
"How about we go take a walk and take a look first?" She looked towards the Imperial Capital in front of the street: "I have been away for so long, and I can't confirm what the situation here has become."
"Okay then." Duan Qing patted his butt and nodded his head: "Without further ado, let's set off now."
"Hey, do you really insist on going to the city for a stroll in this situation?" Looking at the two people pulling up the purple-haired woman and starting to leave, Robin on the side couldn't help shouting: "And also...
Do you want to take her with you?"
"No way, I'm homeless now anyway." Looking behind him, Duan Qing's voice began to get farther and farther as they left: "Thank you, boss lady, for taking this time.
Ever since I took care of you.”
"We will definitely come back to your tavern after the renovation is completed."
The noise of the fire began to become smaller and smaller as they left, replaced by the lively sounds coming from the streets of the Imperial Capital again and again, and the countless crowds stretching forward together with the two rows of red buildings seemed to
Unaffected by this disaster coming from a corner of the empire, he continued to walk along the straight roads between each other and towards the depths of the imperial capital streets that were winding and intersecting in front of him. Originating from the characteristics of the empire.
With the continuous expansion of this vast imperial city, the vermilion has occupied the vision of most players passing by. From time to time, various uneven buildings are used to decorate the empire they see.
The streets of a big city, and this was the first time that Duan Qing and others, who had not rested since arriving in the imperial capital, visited the real appearance of this city with an extremely peaceful mood.
Of course, there are also occasional introductions and explanations from a certain Xue Ling Huan Bing who was once a local.
"This is the Imperial Capital Building. It is probably the tallest building in the empire besides the imperial palace. Its area is probably more than eighty times that of ordinary imperial residences. It contains most of the official departments of the empire, including the Ministry of Law..."
"This is the Imperial City Federation. There are countless commercial unions such as the Craftsmen's Union, the Blacksmiths' Union, the Tailors' Union, and the Alchemy's Union. Each union is a union that can be chosen and learned by players. Every player can also be here.
Find the right business skills to learn for yourself…”
"That circular building we passed just now? You must have seen it more than once. It is the Empire's Arena, the favorite stage for non-peace-loving players and Imperial people."
"This is the Royal Library of the Empire, the favorite place of the Empire's magicians. Due to the unique nature of the Empire, there is no branch of the Council of Mages here, so players who want to learn magic can only go to the Royal Library of the Empire.
, use the knowledge there to make up for your own shortcomings in magic practice. In the same way, there are warrior homes in the empire, and other various professional halls, etc... Hmm."
Walking on another street that had just rounded the corner of the palace, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was introducing Redcar's local customs, paused slightly for a moment. The same pause later attracted Duan Qing's attention, along with the involvement.
The steps leading Violet's body also stopped: "What's wrong?"
"...No, it's nothing."
"Did you find any problem?" His eyes then shifted to the open space where the white-haired woman's eyes had just passed. Duan Qing touched his nose and asked casually: "Is there anything abnormal in that open space?"
"No, nothing unusual." The white hair swayed back and forth in the air for a moment as she lowered her head. Xue Ling Huan Bing turned back and gave a lonely smile: "There."
"That's just where we used to be."
