The wind in the distance once again blew in front of the courtyard, and the woods in front of the valley once again made a pleasant rustling sound. Together with the blown green leaves, the sound laughed towards Duan Qing.
It circled and danced over the courtyard. As if unwilling to accept this result, the gray-robed magician standing at the door then struggled hard with the middle-aged man who was blocking his progress for a while, and then the broom was about to
Before he hit himself, he turned around and walked back angrily in the direction he came from: "Isn't it just that you don't want to come forward? You just have to speak out."
"How many times do you want me to repeat this? The head of the family is not here now! You arrogant adventurer!"
"...I think your head must be inside, you just don't want to admit it."
"What did you say! Give me a stick!"
"...Are you really not going to see him?"
Looking at the scene of the gray-robed figure named Duan Qing running away in panic while being chased by the broom, a player standing on the high stone platform in the courtyard lowered his head in a low voice: "This
This guy doesn't look like he's a troublemaker, but he really wants to see you for something."
"So what, I don't know him." She pouted her lips, and Laura Roland, who was also standing on this high platform, waved her hand expressionlessly: "I don't see any guys I don't know.
Just say this when you meet other people in the future."
"I understand that you don't want to cause trouble now, but this conservative approach is likely to cause the family to miss more opportunities." The player still did not raise his face: "What if the family misses more opportunities because of this?"
The last moment of the empire's mediation, and thus fall into a deeper quagmire..."
"The empire itself will soon fall into a deeper quagmire." Laura sighed slightly, facing the hot wind and nonchalantly withdrew her eyes from Duan Qing's back: "They have no time to take care of us.
You won't take action against us because of that matter for the time being. You just need to continue to pack things step by step and finish it before they find out."
"...Is this really good?"
Without immediately answering the wheat-skinned girl's words, the player who kept his head bowed and saluted asked hesitantly: "Are we really no longer in the empire?"
"Actually, as far as I'm concerned, I don't care where I stay." She said this in a low voice, and Laura, who still maintained a serious expression, slowly shook her head: "But considering your safety,
, the Roland family should leave this place as soon as possible."
"The Roland family is one of the greatest founding families of the Frey Empire and the backbone of the empire." The player whispered: "If the Roland family really runs away, the damage to the Frey Empire will be extremely huge."
"So what? They were the ones who abandoned us first anyway." Laura replied without looking back: "Since Drenir wants to get rid of the relationship between us and the fate of the empire..."
"Then just cut it in two."
She composed herself, and her serious words were dispersed in the surrounding air along with the silence of her voice. The summer that originally surrounded the valley seemed to begin to cool down as she spoke these words.
It froze until the player beside him saluted again and said, "That's it."
"The master of the house probably wants to protect that person."
He slowly raised his head, and his eyes fell in the direction of the gray-robed magician who was getting farther and farther away from here: "Since the sins of the empire are about to befall us, it is better not to do it now.
It’s better to have a relationship with them.”
"...With Maggie by his side, at least there will be no problem with safety or anything like that."
After lowering her head and being silent for a while, Laura spoke again and murmured in a low voice: "After they all leave this imperial capital, there will be nothing left to miss in this place... Why are you always asking here?
Hey! What's the matter with you here, Jian Beidong?"
"Go and pass on my order, and by the way complete today's sword swing practice a thousand times!"
The rising fighting spirit circled around Laura, turning the figure of the player who was retreating with a wry smile into a gourd rolling to the ground: "If it can't be completed..."
"You should get out of here as soon as possible."
***********************************
"They've left, miss."
At the same moment, in a luxurious mansion in Hualan City in the real world, a maid appeared next to Lou Yushang who was busy, and with it was her cautious and low-pitched reporting voice: "What's next?
The meeting is between the Chenfeng Guild and the Eternal Light Guild, may I ask?"
"Let them wait outside for a while."
As if his whole head was buried in the work in front of him, Lou Yushang waved his hand without raising his head: "They are all guys who were unwilling to cooperate before, but now they come here to show their courtesy... Don't be too polite."
"As for the relationship between these guilds, it would be better for Miss to think carefully about it."
Looking at the figure of the maid slowly retreating, Mr. Wu who was standing aside warned in a low voice: "Otherwise, if we really form a joint alliance in the future, we will receive much less support."
"These are the guys who like to follow the trend and take advantage of the situation. I don't want another hundred if you give me one."
The wavy long hair fluttered in the air as Lou Yushang shook his head firmly. The mature woman who threw the document in her hand aside then pulled a light board that was flipping aside: "What's more, our purpose is not
To lead the new alliance, we just need to re-disrupt the existing order. As long as we can create the environment we need, then...well."
"It seems that after all, there are still people who are unwilling to pay the set price."
The busy movements paused in the air for a moment, and at the same time, her eyes suddenly stopped looking at the light screen: "Look, someone has already started to take action."
"The existing interests will naturally not just watch themselves perish. They will definitely resist to the end." Mr. Wu answered with a bit of calmness in his voice: "The breaking and rebuilding of order are often accompanied by
Isn't a large-scale war a reaction we have already anticipated?"
"The major families should have been prepared. They will not sit back and watch the alliance and the Duan family continue to use those illegal tricks." A smile bloomed at the corner of his mouth, and Lou Yushang then turned to the other party who had been waiting at the door.
A man in black waved his hand: "Go ahead and inform everyone that Carter's shares should drop by 1 percentage point today, but this is just the beginning."
"I hope the war can be controlled within the virtual world." She watched the subordinate in black leave, but she muttered something to herself that seemed completely irrelevant: "Duan Tianfeng...
…”
"Don't lose."
As if to fulfill Lou Yushang's prophecy, various orders are being issued from the headquarters of major families in the real world, and their actions are also accompanied by countless people who have already been ambushing in every corner of the world.
Together with others, the financial world in the real world was first turned upside down. Later, the sound of a middle-aged man smashing a tea cup in anger was also heard in the main house of the Duan family. At this time, there was also a sound in the Chu family's house.
There are signs of emergency meetings and emergency transfers, and the results of these actions reflected in the free world are first reflected in the prices of the magic gem industry: "...What's going on, boss? Why did the price of rubies rise by two full days?"
Thousand gold coins?”
"Because it's out of stock today, these are the last two. If you want to buy it, buy it. If you don't buy it, go away."
"The last two? How is that possible? What about the sapphires?"
"There are only a few sapphires left over there. The supply of goods has not been smooth recently, so in order to limit the transaction volume, the price will increase appropriately..."
"It seems like someone is really behind this."
Standing on the street and looking at this scene, the shadowy aristocratic young man named Simon took a slight breath of the heat around him: "This feeling of anxiety hidden in the atmosphere... I haven't felt it for a long time."
"The shortage of magic gems shouldn't have a big impact on the empire, right?" Another merchant carrying a load standing next to him then made a gloomy voice that was completely inconsistent with his dress and temperament: "
Even if all magicians have problems, the empire should have the absolute strength to win the battle."
"Don't take things too short-sighted, son of Asa."
Slowly exhaling the breath that he had taken into his mouth, Simon shook his head in a low voice: "Magic gems are not just magic gems, they also represent one of the replaceable hard currencies on the Free Continent. These small stones
The price... is often linked to the value of gold coins."
"It seems that the war has started now, in this aspect of trade." He sighed again, and at the same time withdrew his gaze towards the magic shop: "We have to take some necessary actions, otherwise more orders will appear.
What about people’s headaches?”
"...It's really eye-opening." Not eager to confirm the other party's conclusion, the goods merchant who stood still covered half of his face with his hands: "I didn't expect that the ANBU minister of the empire would actually control the entire economy of the empire.
I understand the operation very well.”
"The more you know, the more you will understand." Simon turned away from himself: "But you... how much do you know?"
"What do you mean, Your Excellency?"
"Those adventurers who once defected to the empire have come back recently, right?"
Facing the merchant's question, Simon, who took two steps forward, asked calmly: "It seems to be called free flying or something..."
"They are currently accepting our protection." As if smelling a hint of danger, the merchant wanted to pick up the shelves and leave, then stopped: "You'd better not have any malicious thoughts, otherwise"
"...Hmph." Ignoring the other party's warning, Simon walked into the depths of the dark alley and replied with a low smile: "The Shadow Society, which has been dormant for so long, seems to be taking action of its own now... that's good."
"Let's see who will have the last laugh." He shook his hand, and then his figure disappeared into the deep darkness: "It's just that Mr. Asa showed a sense of urgency."
"Then we can't continue to sit idly by and ignore it."
The streets of Redcar returned to calm once more as the two men formally left each other. At the same time, silent changes gradually occurred in every corner of the imperial capital. The operation of the entire state machine also followed this day.
After passing by, ferocious mechanical twisting sounds began to be heard up and down the imperial capital, and at the same time, a tip of this majestic iceberg was revealed to the people who were paying attention. Standing on the top of the tall palace, a girl named Valerie
The special magician just kept his cloaked posture and quietly overlooked everything, until another court meeting belonging to the empire ended in a hurry, and when the figure belonging to Drenir appeared not far behind her, this
The woman who hid her purple hair under the hood let out a calm sigh: "I came to say goodbye."
"Is that so...are you still unwilling to stay here?"
In sight, the figure belonging to Volavos appeared in a corner at the foot of the mountain. He was much thinner than his previous bloated figure, and then showed a pale smile, and slowly met a middle-aged man named Friedman.
They slowly merged together.
"Of course, I'm no longer needed in this place."
By the city wall of the imperial capital, Lott, facing the vermilion ocean, sighed softly. Still fully armed, he then nodded his head towards Marshal Reid and led the team behind him towards the east.
They set off slowly outside the city gate.
"But what about the prophecy? The prophecy has already shown signs of coming true. The empire has just gotten rid of the shackles of fate and has the opportunity to decide its own future."
"Those don't belong to me."
In the sky prison on one side of the palace, the figure belonging to Caldera was laughing and chatting with the head of the Ivan family across the iron prison. Near the original location of the Adventurer Association in the central district, a noble private group led by Count Chuckner
The tax collector of the empire once again approached the broken house aggressively. Withdrawing the pairs of magic eyes that were spread out in the void, the purple-haired woman named Violet then quietly opened her eyes.
With her own eyes, she looked back at Emperor Drenir, who still had radiant cracks all over his body, and gently pulled a smile from the corner of her mouth: "Don't forget each other's identities, dear Drei."
"Don't waste the gift that fate has given you."
She shook her head gently, and her body gradually became blurry in the air. Drenier, who noticed this, also hurriedly stretched out his hand, and his expression showed a moment of panic: "Wait a minute! Liz
The sisters will be back soon, don't you plan to see them?"
"They have their own things to do. They are not here to visit you." Violet's blurry figure slowly turned sideways under the summer light: "Take your hand away, you bastard,
Otherwise... Rex will teach you a lesson."
"So, what about you? Where are you going?"
"……I don't know either."
The hood that disappeared first revealed a little of the long purple hair that spread out, and also revealed Violet's last smiling face in the air: "I am just an adventurer now."
"Of course we must follow our captain's orders."
