1230 Hostile Oppression

PreviousBack to directoryNext
The Adventurer Hall of the principality is not as quaint and generous as the Adventurer Association of Redcar in the imperial capital. Instead, it still maintains the appearance of a tavern like an ordinary private house. However, perhaps because of the rain, the crowd of players at this time is still the same.

It was as lively as a gathering. The bustling crowd kept passing by the blackboards with tasks entrusted by the Adventurers Association. From time to time, there would be tasks taken away one after another and quarrels among each other over the ownership of tasks.

The surprised shouts belonging to the small duo of Duan Qing naturally seemed insignificant in such an atmosphere: "What's going on? Why was the Fool's Adventure Group expelled?"

"According to the information we received, they have moved away from this place for a long time." The female receptionist on the other side of the counter replied sweetly: "In addition to the incident that happened later... Mr. Freestone later removed them.

It’s over.”

"Is it Felicist's decision?" The surprise in Duan Qing's eyes became even bigger: "Aren't they very close? How could they suddenly make such a decision?"

"We, the staff, don't know the specific situation." The receptionist's smile was like flowers placed at the door of the store hall: "If you don't mind, you can go to other places to inquire a little bit."

"..."

As if he sensed something unusual from the other person's smile, Duan Qing forcibly restrained his urge to get angry. He looked at each other with Ningyu Ninglan beside him, but the next moment he wanted to leave, he

He was stopped by a question that suddenly appeared in front of him: "Excuse me"

"I don't know if this question is appropriate, but..." Calling Duan Qing and two others, the female receptionist who was still smiling asked with a smile: "Do you know the Fool's Adventure Group?"

"Well, I don't know this." Pointing to the top of his head, Duan Qing's voice became gentler: "We are imperial people who have just arrived here, and we don't know much about Tania."

"Really? I have never heard of Imperial people wanting to find the Fool Adventure Group after arriving here." The receptionist smiled and covered his mouth: "Although they were once heroes who fought against the Empire,

It is the object of admiration for everyone in Tania, but now"

"I hope you won't have anything to do with the people in that adventure group again."

As she said this, she pointed to a certain notice board in a certain direction next to the association's counter. At this time, large and small wanted notices were posted on that board with the eyes of countless players vying to check there.

Every corner of the notice board includes the name that Duan Qing has been looking for: "...The Fool's Adventure Group? On the wanted list? What's going on?"

"No need to look for it, their specific charges are not written on the wanted warrant."

A calm middle-aged voice then appeared in Duan Qing's ear, accompanied by a tall and thin figure of a middle-aged man dressed as an aristocrat slowly walking from behind the counter: "I thought Talis was in a hurry.

Who is the wanted criminal who hurriedly came to tell me? It turns out he is just an Imperial man... Hello."

"I am Felix Stone, the person in charge of this Adventurer Association." The tall and thin man walked behind the counter, and the hat he took off came to his chest as he saluted: "Our receptionist Talis

The young lady may have offended you a lot, I hope you can forgive me."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. She didn't say anything wrong anyway." Duan Qing hurriedly waved his hand, and then his unobstructed eyes fell in the direction of the notice board: "But... the wanted order.

, This doesn’t seem to be the first time our Fool Adventure Group has been wanted.”

"This time is different." Putting on his top hat again, Freestone hid his eyes in the shadow of the hat brim: "Everyone knows the mistakes made by fools, and no one can forgive them."

"Oh?" Duan Qing turned his gaze back: "What kind of mistake is that?"

"This issue is not something you Imperial people should be concerned about."

Shaking his head slightly, Ferriston's eyes then roamed around Duan Qing for a while: "Although I don't know your name, you should be an adventurer, right? If you want to accept the mission,

, on behalf of the Adventurer Association of the Principality of Elnifea, I would like to welcome you."

"That means we are not welcome to do things that are not outside the scope of adventurers, right?" Duan Qing smiled bitterly and touched his nose: "Don't be so harsh, okay? I just...well, I just want to be with the people here.

There are some friends in this adventure group, so I just wanted to meet them a little bit."

"That's it." Looking at Duan Qing's face indifferently, Felicton then closed his eyes again: "Since you have nothing to do with the Fool Adventure Group, you can leave now. I hope you can be careful in the future.

Be careful with your words and actions, and try not to have anything to do with that adventure group."

"Otherwise, there will be consequences at your own risk." He lowered his hat and said in a low voice, "Please go back."

"Thank you for reminding."

Duan Qing, who looked at the other party and nodded, stood up and then left his seat with the code word Ninglan: "Then I'll take my leave."

"Wait a minute." Felicon's voice then sounded behind Duan Qing: "Please allow me to be rude, but I still have two questions."

"What's your name, please?"

"The water is cut off by the abyss."

Slowly turning his head against the background of countless players walking back and forth, Duan Qing showed his smile to the other side of the counter: "My name is Linyuan Duanshui, and I come from Carlo, Santerius Province, Frei Empire

An adventurer from the village."

"It's an honor to meet you." Still maintaining his polite manner, Felicton's hidden gaze then moved to Duan Qing's side: "What about this young lady?"

"...Ninglan." The maid who was looked at by the other party smiled and replied: "Secret words Ninglan."

"It's such an impressive name." Felicton held his top hat and sighed deeply: "It's the same as the Dark Whispering Ninglan in the Fool's Adventure Group."

"Well, I must have mistakenly admitted the person." Duan Qing, who was still smiling, shook his head: "We set out from Redcar together, and then we traveled a long way to get here together. She should not be the one you are looking for.

I know someone from the principality, this is just a coincidence."

"I hope so." He replied in a low voice, and then turned around and walked slowly towards the back of the counter: "If there is another chance in the future"

"We can definitely have a nice time talking."

Looking at the other person's figure disappearing around the corner of the side door behind the counter, Duan Qing put away his gaze and then walked towards the gate of the Adventurers Association. He avoided the faces of countless players and put away his smile at this time.

Then he put on a worried look: "It seems that something big happened. Even Mengzhu and the others suffered. I originally wanted to attack the biggest one of our own, but in the end it almost turned into

A headless fly that has thrown itself into a trap..."

"It seems that I almost caused you trouble again, sir." Ningyu Ninglan also shook her head: "Although Ninglan has left here for a long time, I didn't expect that the president of the association had such a deep impression on Ninglan.

"

"You are as beautiful as a flower and a maverick maid. It turns out that you are the only one in Tania." Duan Qing turned to look at the face of Anyu Ninglan: "If you show your strength again, maybe they will

I can confirm it more accurately."

"Ninglan just think that Mr. is praising Ninglan." So Ninglan snickered twice: "Sir, you don't need to remind Ninglan, Ninglan will recover her strength as soon as possible."

"There's no need to worry about this. Anyway, we are now in the enemy's hinterland."

Looking at the door of the association hall and the sky still dripping with rain outside, Duan Qing said in a low voice: "This road is blocked, so let's find another way."

"Then where are you going to investigate next, sir?"

"Jianghu Headquarters." Duan Qing said the name in a low voice: "As players, they should be the second largest guild force that knows the inside story best. Although compared with the Fool, our friendship with them is also in the sky.

It’s an underground level, but as long as you’re willing to keep your mouth shut.”

"Both of you."

A low voice then sounded in Duan Qing's ears, suddenly interrupting Duan Qing's gritted teeth. A man wearing the armor of a soldier from the Principality also appeared in front of Duan Qing in the rain, and then showed no expression on his face.

He walked up to them and said, "You two are distinguished guests from the empire, right?"

"My family invites you."

*******************************

Walking under the rain-stained bluestone road, Duan Qing, who was sitting in the carriage, heard the sound of the carriage's wheels constantly colliding with the ground. He was not in the mood to experience this bathing place.

The ancient and magical city displayed in the heavy rain and light curtain, and the eyes revealed between the lifted door curtains have been observing the left and right here. Familiar and unfamiliar scenes are constantly reflected on the carriage.

Passing around, they finally slowly turned a corner by the fountain near the central square. The sound of whistles belonging to the coachman and the footsteps of soldiers also appeared in the corner of the square, and then they walked along the road in front of Duan Qing.

The soldier stopped in the direction shown: "Please get out of the car."

"You are?"

"Please get out of the car." As if unwilling to explain too much, the soldier who brought Duan Qing and the others said expressionlessly: "If you have any questions, our adults will answer you."

"I see."

The figure of the maid slowly walked out of the carriage of this gorgeous carriage. Duan Qing, who jumped off the carriage, then raised his head and glanced at the building in front of him: "This... seems to be... the one specially used for...

Come……"

"That's right."

A low voice then sounded in front of Duan Qing, accompanied by an old man in aristocratic attire, leaning on a cane and looking at Duan Qing's old figure: "This is a place between heroes. It was originally used to welcome heroes.

, the place where meritorious deeds are commended is now temporarily used by me."

"It turns out to be Mr. Fordson." Duan Qing looked at the appearance of the old man in front of him intently, and then sighed and saluted: "The oldest member of the Duchy Parliament and the leader of the aristocratic faction."

"It seems that your empire's investigation of our principality has not relaxed. Even adventurers like you know my identity." Looking up at Duan Qing's face, the old man known as Fordson then turned around in a low voice.

Head: "Come in."

"Didn't Pamir come?" Duan Qing, who shook his head and ignored the hostile looks from the principality soldiers around him, then followed the other person's footsteps and walked into the Hall of Heroes: "I thought this

This elaborate meeting can only be arranged by the highest official of the principality."

"Do you think your whereabouts are very secretive?" Fordson stopped in the darkness deep in the hall and waved his hand to his side: "Every move you make is under our control.

, that bastard Lux ​​sent the news back before you set out, even if we let Imperial people like you enter Tania, do you think we will relax our vigilance against you?"

"Would you like to guess what would happen to you and your maid now if I don't invite you back?" As the surroundings of the hall were gradually illuminated by magic lights, the old congressman from the principality gradually let out a cold smile.

: "You actually dare to go into a place like the Adventurers Association, and still go around in a dignified mood to inquire about information?"

"Since the principality hates us so deeply, why do you dare to invite us back?" Duan Qing waved his hand indifferently: "Aren't you afraid of causing public anger?"

"Because now I am the only one who dares to do this."

With a heavy snort, Fordson, who was leaning on crutches, then turned and walked towards the depths of the Hall of Heroes: "Speaker Pamir's identity is not suitable to come forward. Other forces such as Vincent, Connelly, Carlos, etc.

People like this don’t have the guts to come forward, so the task of meeting with representatives of the enemy country can only be left to me."

"Come on, tell me why you are here." He slowly sat on a stone chair in the corner of the hall, and then looked at Duan Qing's face with gloomy eyes: "You ran to Taniya in a big way.

Come on, what do you want to do?"

"We just want to understand one thing." Duan Qing looked at each other with Ciyu Ninglan, and then took two steps closer to the other party: "Why does the principality hate us so much now?"

"What exactly did Prince Chris do?"

"You still don't know?"

After looking at Duan Qing in surprise for a long time, Fordson's old face showed an exaggerated laughing expression: "Humph, hum hehe, hahahahaha!"

"I have never seen such an innocent Imperial person." He laughed forward and back, but there was no smile in his eyes: "That old thief Drenir"

"They have really raised a group of impressive alien species."
