"What? People from the Council of Seven are here to assist us?"
In a tall building around Tania's Adventurer Association, members of the Jianghu with a double sword sign hanging on their shoulders were exchanging today's information. One of them, a tall man with a beard, was sitting at a large table.
Behind his back, he clapped his big hands at the news just sent by his subordinates.
"How is that possible? People from the Council of Seven...well."
As if thinking of some kind of experience, the man frowned slightly and swallowed back his surprised words.
"What's wrong, boss? This should be considered a good thing."
"Of course... it's a good thing." Duan Shanyue waved his hand a little irritably: "The situation has always been unfavorable to us, and we have been thinking about when the system will give us some big gifts. Now it seems.
.....”
"The gift of balance has arrived."
"But why..." The person from before asked again: "Why did the Mage Council, which has always been reclusive, suddenly stand up?"
"...I don't know." Thinking of some possibility in his mind, Duan Shanyue sat on his seat hesitantly: "But this result is a good thing for us, so we can put aside the reasons behind it first.
Once released...Murong Baige, come here."
"No, do you want to call me handsome guy?"
"Come here if I tell you to!" Duan Shanyue grabbed a thin man with bangs next to him: "First put the information you have on hand, come here, come here, take a look at this... Yes
There is no place to take advantage of.”
"How many times have I told you not to be so violent... Huh? Is this true?" The thin man rubbed his shoulders painfully, then brushed his head away from his eyes and just looked at it.
After a few glances, he jumped up.
"Of course! Do you know what the seven-person parliament in this world actually represents..."
"I have seen their strength... stop talking nonsense!"
"Okay, okay...um..."
The thin young man walked around in place for a while, and finally loosened the frown on his forehead: "First send someone to the president to let him know the news, so that he can prepare for the arrangements on the front line, and also send some more
People go out and find a suitable opportunity to spread this news. It will not only boost everyone's morale, but also dampen the arrogance of the other party. Huh! I don't believe you are dissatisfied with the Master of the Seven-person Council being your opponent.
ah......"
He was chatting endlessly as if talking to himself, but was written down by some members of the martial arts community next to him. There were seven or eight of them in total. Duan Shanyue nodded with satisfaction, and waited until the other party stopped without saying anything before he interrupted.
: "In your opinion, can we, Jianghu, take advantage of this opportunity..."
"How about establishing a relationship with the Mages Council?"
"Well, it's possible!" After thinking for a while, the man with bangs immediately shouted: "Haha! Send someone over to get close to that... uh, beautiful lady first, if there is a chance
You must please the other person, but you must be careful not to offend the beauty... If possible, collect more about her daily habits, but be careful about the methods. NPCs of this level in the free world can all
It is a heaven-defying strength, so you must provoke the other party..."
Amidst another burst of chattering and smug laughter, Duan Shanyue shook his head and walked out of the door, leaning on the pillar outside the door and looking at the sky.
"What's wrong, boss? Such good news, do you still have...anything to worry about?"
A dual-sword player with the ID of Crimson Cang Yan walked up to him and asked in a low voice.
"Since the news is true, there is nothing good for me, but... I must be worried." Looking at the handsome player, Duan Shanyue shook his head helplessly.
"This matter is somewhat unexplainable."
"ah?"
"In ordinary game design, the balance of the two forces is determined by the system." Looking at the crowd on the street, Duan Shanyue's eyes became a little confused: "So unless there are abnormal factors, the overall strength of the two warring parties is generally the same.
It is reciprocal, so that it will help the players' performance and allow us to compete under such conditions."
"I was like this when I was in there, but...it was just for others to listen to."
"My various experiences in the free world have long made me not believe in the so-called 'system balance'. Anything can happen here." Duan Shanyue's voice became a little deeper: "So the Wings of Freedom thing
When I helped the guys bring the empire before our eyes, I wasn't surprised at all. Because...this kind of development is quite consistent with real history and the real world."
"Uh, I don't understand..."
"Look at this Tania." Duan Shanyue raised his hands: "Although it is so peaceful on the surface, it has long been corrupted by the beauty outside. In a parliament that advertises freedom and equality, every member of the parliament
But they all have their own needs. There is oppression in every county in the principality. There is corruption and corruption in every corner of the principality. Even if Pamir is reincarnated like Zhuge, he is just one person. In addition, Huo Huo
The same goes for Siman. The system of the principality... is destined not to be decided by one or two people."
"When no one wants equality, this country will naturally not be equal."
"Don't ask me who Zhuge is." Seeing the young man next to him looking confused and wanting to ask a question, Duan Shanyue raised his hand to stop him, and then continued: "If that doesn't work, you can think about the parliament of the principality a while ago.
, we discussed some things, how Cosma County and even Ferron County in the principality were lost, and what those councilors were doing..."
"I don't even believe that such a principality can defeat the Fleur Empire."
He patted the pillar behind him and tried to calm down his mood.
"Unlike the Sword of Justice, the fate of our guild has been tied to the principality, so we must contribute more, but... in the game of the free world, the effort and reward are often out of proportion." Hope.
Facing the direction of the parliament hall, Duan Shanyue fell into thinking again: "So, why is that woman coming?"
"You mean the **master...?"
"I have been with that woman for a short time. From what I know, although that woman is a good person, she will never come to help us for such a principality." Duan Shanyue squinted his eyes: "There must be something in this.
There are other reasons. I didn’t have to worry about this with you before, but if you can’t figure out this kind of unreasonable thing..."
"We may fall into other people's plans."
The brief conversation between the two paused for a while, then Crimson Cangyan considered it and said: "The president is on the front line now. If there is something fishy here, I guess it will be..."
"Report! News coming from offline!"
A female member of the Jianghu suddenly appeared in the hall. She observed it for a while, then ran to Duan Shanyue, and then whispered in a low voice.
"It seems..." Then, the strong man with a beard laughed slowly, as if in slow motion.
"That's why."
******************
"Why...we...have to walk such a long way..."
"It's not...your decision..."
"Hoo, ho, I'm exhausted, why don't you guys just leave everything on me, okay..."
The road leading to the principality capital is flat and spacious, and as the distance shortens, the stone roads are getting better and better, and the surrounding scenery becomes more and more beautiful. Some hilly terrain occasionally appears on both sides of the road, but
It is also divided into two halves in the middle by this broad road, and the trees above it also stand upright above the high hills. While blocking the sun, they can enjoy their elegant posture while looking at the people passing by.
But Duan Qing and the others no longer have the energy to appreciate it.
In the morning, in order to save the few gold coins left by hunting for goods, the team's actual captain, Miss Mengzhu, suggested that the team march forward on foot. Maybe they could reach the capital of the principality on foot. Duan Qing, who understood the problem, naturally had no objections.
Of course Xiao Hongchen, who had always been a macho man, would not fall out of the limelight, so after a brief cleanup, the three of them followed the official road and started out from Kalon Pass.
As a result, the walk lasted half a day - apart from the endless flowers, grass and mountains and forests, they didn't see any spectacular scenery, and they were naturally very far away from the so-called destination.
There were not many wild animals on the official road, let alone monsters and the like. This disappointed Xiao Hongchen, who had been eager to try it out after a full meal, and he had exhausted all his energy along the way. But when half a day passed, everyone's physical strength
After it was exhausted, even Duan Qing's willpower had been exhausted by the endless baking of the sun.
So, they started to get to the bottom of it.
"Who told you that your power value is the highest among us! And... and... you were voluntary in the beginning, okay..." The girl only said loudly, just because
His strength was exhausted and he collapsed.
"Why am I so upright..." Xiao Hongchen, who was carrying a big bag, was sweating profusely: "I'm so tired... let me take a rest, okay..."
"Okay, okay, let's... find a place to rest first... take a rest, it should be better." Duan Qing bent over and panted, raised his eyes and started looking for a place for the team to stop.
Resting place: "At my age, I can actually do such crazy things..."
"I didn't know it would be so far away...and you, an uncle, have never aged..."
The three of them found a naturally formed depression at the foot of a low mountain and sat down in the backlit corner. Xiao Hongchen dropped the large backpack on his back and breathed heavily: "Ah ah
Ah, I’m exhausted, I’m exhausted, my stamina bar has never been higher..."
"Not bad, if it were me, I wouldn't be able to do it a long time ago."
"This story tells us that it is better to buy less when buying things..."
"Don't you want that armor? There's also my bracelet, your leather hat, and that big ax that Xiao Hongchen insists on buying..."
"Axes are a man's romance! You don't understand... Just imagine how powerful it is to charge into the battlefield with two big axes on your back!"
The three of them just chatted and took out their own food and water to replenish their physical strength. Although the summer sun was still hot, the three of them hiding in the col could still feel a hint of summer while eating.
Enjoying the coolness, the three people leaning on their backpacks looked at the wide road and the blue sky behind the woods opposite, feeling somewhat inexplicably relaxed in their hearts.
"I really want to live in this world for a long time."
"If we are lucky enough to get a station, these problems will be solved." Duan Qing patted the package behind him: "Including the fact that we don't have to carry the loot back and forth for a long time."
"And it can attract more companions!" Mengzhu shouted: "That's it. I'll find a way to get a station after we get there!"
"Do you think that establishing a residency is just playing house..."
The girl, whose emotions were high again, was not at all discouraged as before, nor did she care about Duan Qing's blow. She clenched her fists and shouted, but the next moment, she choked because of her excessive movements.
"Cough, cough! Wuwuwu..." She beat her chest in pain, then tried hard to drink two mouthfuls of water, and then exhaled a big breath as if she was alive: "Wow, I almost died.
..."
"The bread in Karon Pass is really hard to swallow. I still miss eating the 'Sparkling Star Flower'... Oh, it would be great if players could cook their own food!"
"If there were, veteran players in the free world would have discovered it long ago." Duan Qing chewed the food in his mouth vigorously: "But I also hope to do this. I am still very confident in my cooking skills.
.....”
"I do not believe......"
"Forget it if you don't believe it, I can't prove it to you anyway."
"I like to eat barbecue!" Xiao Hongchen also said loudly, and then immediately attracted the disdainful eyes of the two people.
"Perhaps some players have already discovered a way to cook in the free world!" After a short silence, Mengzhu suddenly shouted: "The degree of freedom in the free world is so high, there must be a way!"
"But so far..."
"You must be looking for information wrong." The girl said angrily: "I want to find it myself, and I'm going to find it now. Just wait for me!"
Then, in a flash of white light, the girl in the purple burqa went offline.
"Hey, hey, is it really okay for you to just leave like this?" Duan Qing grabbed the blank, and then said helplessly: "What should we do if she goes online for a while and can't find us? Are we supposed to keep waiting for her here?
..."
"There's nothing to do, so just wait." Xiao Hongchen said in vain, "It just so happens that I can rest a little longer..."
At this moment, the sound of a carriage came from the direction they came from.
When Duan Qing and others walked all the way, several carriages passed by, but they did not have Richard's aura and face, so those carriages ignored them without exception and regarded them as nothing.
. As a result, when the carriage passed in front of them, the two people had no intention of stopping it, and just allowed the other party to pass in front of them.
"How far is the next stop from here..."
Just when Duan Qing was still thinking about this practical problem, the carriage that just passed by suddenly stopped not far in front of them. Then, two figures, one tall, one short, one strong and one thin, stepped out of the car.
Jump down.
"You! Let us settle our old and new grudges here!"
