In the streets where countless civilians of the empire were walking back and forth, three figures belonging to Duan Qing and his party slowly approached the open space that Xueling Huanbing had just mentioned. The gray-robed magician standing at the front was
Then he looked at the fragmented open space with curiosity and exploration for a long time, and finally turned to look at the white-haired woman who had become silent since saying those words: "What's wrong?
"
"..."
"This place looks like an abandoned place." Duan Qing looked away from Xue Ling Huan Bing and let out two sighing smiles: "Don't you feel a little regretful?"
"No, no." She finally made some moves, and the white hair belonging to Xueling Huanbing swayed back and forth around the open space as she shook her head: "Things that have been lost, let them disappear here.
.”
"I know these are not good memories, but it is your past after all."
After patting the other party on the shoulder, Duan Qing walked to the front of Xue Ling Huan Bing and said, "You have already become a female devil. Do you still feel sentimental about these small things?"
"What are you talking about?" Finally showing an angry expression, the white-haired woman pushed aside the hand that slapped her shoulder: "If I am really some kind of female devil, I must cut it off with a sword now.
Your mouth."
"No, no, no, no, I'm still waiting for you to continue introducing this city." Duan Qing hurriedly pushed his hands, and then showed a begging expression: "Since you are not willing to introduce this open space, then we will first
Go somewhere else”
"That's fine."
Interrupting the other party's proposal with a sigh, Xue Ling Huan Bing brushed her long hair and gradually put away her complicated eyes: "I am a female devil, and there are not even ten thousand innocent lives under my hands but eight thousand."
…”
"Those things that happened here, to me, just seem like they happened a lifetime ago."
She tightened her arms and tentatively stepped into the area covered by the open space. Then, as Duan Qing, who was holding the figure of the purple-haired woman behind him, gradually followed, she introduced sideways towards the other party's position:
"This should be the main gate of Wings of Freedom at that time. Free Flying was very generous, so that gate is also very grand..."
"The meeting hall should be in this place. You can still find traces of the tall walls left after they were eradicated. At that time, we often gathered here to discuss many matters that were important to the future development of Wings of Freedom...
…”
"This is our guild warehouse. It used to store most of the property earned by our guild... What? How could there be only one like this? We are the second largest guild in the alliance no matter what. Our daily incoming and outgoing flows and seizures
Can you imagine how much the spoils of war are?"
"This is our martial arts training hall. It doesn't matter if you call it a martial arts training ground. In short, at that time, we were constantly studying combat skills and techniques in the free world. There were also trainers and physical coaches who were responsible for simulation guidance..."
Following the vague exchanges between the two people, Xue Ling Huan Bing led Duan Qing in a slow circle around this small open space, low and brief.
Her words quickly outlined the outline of this place that was once the residence of Wings of Freedom, and were occasionally mixed with exclamations from her who had been one of them: "Inspirational, Oscar, Luo Xiaoluo, Tiannanxing"
...Although we ended up in this place because we lost to Jianghu, we still felt at ease with this land at that time. Although the barren conditions and environment of the empire were not as good as Tania, which is located in the hinterland of the Free Continent, Redkar after all
It is the largest city in mainland China and is a very suitable place for the development of large guilds."
"If it hadn't been for that decision, we really had hope." Her footsteps finally stopped at the side and rear of this messy open space, at the edge of a land filled with gravel and rubble: "We have great hope of transcending the world and becoming a world leader.
First in the league.”
"You are already number one in the league, in every sense." Duan Qing touched his nose and replied with a smile: "Although you have fired them now, those honors should be nothing to you anymore.
relation……"
"Who said that? At least my name was among the team champions of the last League Cup." She pushed her chest out hard, and Xue Ling Huan Bing's confident eyes were then focused on the ruins in front of her.
: "Fengqiao Tingyu, Huanhai Kuangxing, they are all old teammates that I personally selected, and"
As if thinking of a sensitive thief's name, her voice stopped again. Duan Qing, who seemed to understand the reason, coughed his own throat and pointed to the ruins in front of him with a clumsy way of talking.
: "Uh...then what is this place for?"
"This used to be our accommodation area."
Heaving a slight sigh of relief, Xue Ling Huan Bing's gaze then fell on the sky diagonally above: "Wings of Freedom has promised to allocate each high-level elite member a private room in the game world for their own use.
The captain of each team and the players who were later selected to play in the professional league later became part of this accommodation area."
"I also lived here for a while, instead of living in a bar or hotel." Her eyes also became confused as this memory emerged: "That pure time of thinking about how to improve myself every day...
…It’s really hard to forget.”
"Although you are reborn now, you still have enough capital to look down on everyone at that time." Duan Qing carefully comforted the other party again: "Everything you have experienced and all your efforts have been rewarded.
Isn’t it?”
"That's right, and it started when I just walked out of this city." She regained her consciousness slightly, and Xue Ling Huan Bing's bright eyes gradually emerged from between her long white hair:
"Going to the Emerald Forest is the first mission I took on after I just achieved something."
"Uh...then you met me?"
"That's right."
With a bright smile on his face, Xue Ling Huan Bing tapped Duan Qing's forehead with his finger: "I met you who is so sinful."
"Who could have imagined this?" So Duan Qing could only show his helpless wry smile: "And at that time, I was just helpless. God knows there will be a guy like you who likes to stalk... eh.
"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything anymore." He pushed his hands and took two steps back. The words he wanted to continue to complain about were turned aside as Xue Ling Huanbing stared at him: "Anyway, between the two of us,
I have accumulated enough bad luck in my life, and now I can’t drive you away even if I want to... huh."
His face, dripping with cold sweat, turned to one side. Before he could continue to argue, his voice suddenly paused. The woman who had been staring at the gray-robed magician naturally noticed this abnormality, and her eyes followed the other person's gaze.
On the purple-haired woman beside Duan Qing: "By the way, I even forgot that there is an NPC beside us. What's wrong with her?"
"I don't know. We can't communicate with her now, so we can't ask anything..."
"Could it be that, as you guessed before, the data was damaged due to your random behavior?"
"What are you thinking? You underestimate the ability of the optical brain. Instead of worrying about problems with that thing, you might as well worry that the system has a logical disorder due to the conversation between us. It is more likely...
Huh?"
The whispers stopped again, and the two eyes that came together were also focused on Violet, who was looking into the distance. She who had been standing quietly on the side also slowly raised her head.
For the first time, one of his hands pointed to the location of a huge building on the other side of the open space: "...Imperial Library?"
"In what you just heard, the place where the empire's magicians concentrated their studies...did she recognize that place?"
"This shows that your psychotherapy is working. It can actually make this great magician react. Maybe this person who once lived here is very familiar with that library."
"Since she is a magician, of course she should often go there to practice magic. I don't know how the scene there has changed compared to the scene in her memory before. If this can really stimulate her to regain some personality and memory.
,maybe"
"who!?"
The sound of the sword being unsheathed echoed in the corner of the open space, accompanied by Duan Qing's sudden turn and loud shouts. Accompanied by this, the two people turned back to face the challenge in the direction they came from, and a thin line
Then the figure seemed to be startled and suddenly fell out from behind the broken wall in the corner of another collapsed house: "Ouch! Ouch yoyo..."
"……It is you."
Duan Qing put away the magic potion he held tightly in his hand, and then let out a sigh of relief: "What are you doing here? Have you been following us for a long time?"
"I, I didn't want to follow you." The red-haired girl stood up awkwardly, with the words "Qianzhihe" on her head, and looked timidly at Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing in front of her.
Personal: "I just ran into you on the road occasionally, and I was a little curious about where you were going."
"Really?" Duan Qing slowly pressed down the white sword blade that was still held in the air by Snow Spirit Fantasy Ice. Duan Qing put away his smile with a playful look on his face: "I thought you were squatting all the time.
There is a bad woman who is waiting for us to come out at the entrance of the palace, and then thinks of some other reason to stab us."
"I, I am a real magician, not a bad woman." He waved his arms and yelled this sentence. Qian Zhihe then showed his face like a little woman who feels scared after doing something wrong.
Expression: "And who wants to squat, I just want to, just want to"
"I just wanted to check your identity through the hands of those nobles, but there was no good opportunity to get close to you, so..."
The last half of the sentence was squeezed out bit by bit by the red-haired girl who was twisting her fingers vigorously with a slurping sound that only she could hear. This also made Duan Qing, who had been looking at her, expressions on their faces.
A little doubt appeared: "What did you say? Can you speak louder?"
"I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything!" The girl hurriedly raised her hands: "I, that, this...ahem, you are so brave, you dare to break into such a place, don't you have any knowledge?
For the consciousness of a wanted criminal?"
"His Majesty the Emperor has not given any negative comments on what we have done, so why should we panic?" Duan Qing rolled his eyes and then raised his voice: "As for trespassing into this place, haven't we already been punished?
The abandoned Wings of Freedom station? Isn’t it still some kind of forbidden area?”
"This is a private land under planning and construction, and outsiders are not allowed to intrude at will." Pointing to the bricks, wood and other materials piled in the corner of the open space, Qian Zhihe finally showed a proud expression: "
Don’t think that without Imperial Guards guarding here, this has become a public place where anyone can enter! Do you have any manners?”
"Private land to be built in the plan?" Looking at Duan Qing beside him, Xue Ling Huanbing asked in a low voice: "Who has sold this place to?"
"Of course it's the Mage Council." She put her hands on her waist, and the corners of the red-haired girl's mouth and nose seemed to be raised to the sky: "It's the most prosperous area in the empire, and it's so close to the Imperial Library. Our Mage Council is not here.
Choosing a location, where else to go?”
"Your Council of Mages is really rich." Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes as bright as snow closed slightly: "I remember that our Wings of Freedom spent a total of 80 million gold coins to buy this land, and it was only two years ago.
The price at the beginning of the game..."
"The financial resources of the Mages Council are much higher than you think. Can you control it?" The girl widened her eyes without giving in. "Don't you still have doubts about what I said?"
"Of course, after all, you were just fabricating testimonies at will in the hall..."
"You, you hum! Believe it or not, the Council of Mages will soon establish a branch here in the empire, and I will be the contact person for exploration! If you don't leave this place..."
"Okay, okay, can't we believe it?"
Looking at the red-haired girl who suddenly raised her red lotus staff and pointed it here, Duan Qing hurriedly pulled Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was still waiting to continue reasoning, back behind him: "You are busy, you are busy, let's go.
If you visit the library, I will no longer disturb the great cause of your Mage Council... Huh?"
The scene of the confrontation stopped again when Duan Qing suddenly made a sound of surprise. Along with it, he looked forward with wide eyes. The signature staff that was revealed by Qian Zhihe also seemed to be like
As if manipulated by an invisible force, he suddenly broke away from the girl's hands, slowly floating with a faint dark red light in front of a purple-haired woman wearing a gray cloak: "..."
"This staff..."
The haze that had always been in her eyes had completely disappeared at this time, replaced by a pair of lavender eyes belonging to Violet that were emitting divine light. Duan Qing, who was looking at this strange appearance, then slowly walked over.
In front of her, she asked cautiously in a tentative tone.
"Do you recognize it?"
