"I noticed something was wrong before."
The dancing magic tracks screamed as countless players passed by, weaving brilliant streams of magic in the opposite direction to Duan Qing, but the fierce battle reflected on the edge of Freedom Square
The shouts and roars intertwined with each other could no longer attract the attention of the gray-robed magician: "At that time, I was still concerned about what the throbbing in my heart was, but I didn't expect-"
"Are you referring to the Black Magic Cottage?" Running closely behind him, Xue Ling Huan Bing's voice still sounded a bit doubtful: "Isn't it because of the manipulation done by Ms. Gardevoir?
?”
"Ms. Gardevoir is indeed a black magician, and a black magician who is proficient in the spiritual system." His face became more and more anxious as he panted, and Duan Qing gritted his teeth and explained in a low voice: "If
It's very easy for her to achieve that effect by just moving her fingers."
"But I don't believe that she can use my connection to attack Violet from the air." He opened the system menu in front of him, and his vision had turned gray, and all the operations had become unusable.
Author's page: "If she has such ability, then she is no different from a system administrator."
"Violet? What happened to her?"
Finally out of the area where the conflict and fighting was most intense, the running sounds from Gedman and Asahi Dongsheng gradually became louder: "Where did you hide her before?"
"I don't have the ability to hide her." Duan Qing shook his head in a low voice. Duan Qing, who was still running, replied in a low voice: "Even if I am a follower, do you really think I have that?"
Are you able to boss Violet's former great magician around? Ever since Tania's incident ended, I have never actively interfered with her."
"In other words, you just found out that something happened to the great magician? Where is she now? What exactly is she-"
"Don't ask me, I don't know either."
Gritting his teeth and running around the corner of the next street, Duan Qing's figure instantly passed by another group of players who had just rushed towards the square: "But no matter what, it is difficult for me to imagine that the great magician can
An opponent I couldn’t handle...the guy who appeared in Freedom Square..."
Calm down, calm down, it's not a big deal.
Just because the character panel has turned gray, it does not mean that she is really dead. There are very few precedents for followers in the free world. Such a situation cannot explain anything at all...
To say the least, she is just an NPC. This is just a loss, a...loss of property...
hateful!
Along with Duan Qing's loud curse, a huge roar rose at the far end behind several people. Along with the vibrations caused by the mutual impact and collision of energy, it rose toward the high sky, black.
A strange scene with a clear white light gradually formed among the clouds and mist rising above the square, together with the distant screams of countless players. The unique sound of gunfire when the magic gun was triggered also lit up.
Among these noisy commotions, it seemed that the survival status of the combatants on the other side and the continuation of the battle were being revealed in this way. Duan Qing, who stopped at the corner, also tried his best to suppress his irritable emotions due to his excitement.
Breathing, his eyes gradually fell on the dark alley corner he was facing at this time: "If you want to know all this, I'm afraid this is the only way."
"It went around in a circle, but it ended up coming back again." The figure gradually appeared on Duan Qing's side, and Xueling Huanbing's voice also became sighing: "But it is true that in this case, we can provide
The person who keeps his whereabouts secret is probably the Shadow Mage himself."
"I hope she is still here and not running around." Duan Qing took a deep breath and walked towards the direction of the black magic cabin with an increasingly serious expression: "I hope she is still safe now."
"There doesn't seem to be any trace of enemies around." Flashed back from the depths of the street nearby, and the figure of the maid player named Ciyu Ninglan also lost the smile she usually maintained: "If it really exists
In the case of hostile forces——"
"Then it can only come from inside the house."
The wooden door of the black magic cabin slowly opened with the sound of these words, and the figure of the woman covered with black gauze standing inside the door was slowly revealed. The seemingly calm scene inside the house also made people wary at the same time.
After getting up, Duan Qing and others put down their actions one after another, and the expressions on their faces became slightly more relaxed as the other party showed peace: "Your Majesty Shadow Mage, it's great that you're okay."
"I understand what you are worried about, but all this is revealed in the destiny." Shaking her head slightly, the woman with the black gauze mask stepped aside to make way for Duan Qing and others: "Don't forget
My identity has changed, whether it is as the Weaver of Destiny or as the Twelve Thrones."
"You, you still hope to protect the City of Freedom, right?" He glanced at the teammates behind him. Duan Qing, who did not enter the room immediately, then asked in a low voice: "You knew what was about to happen.
What is it?"
"Of course, I also know what kind of powerful enemy appears there." Pointing to the roar that was coming from a certain direction of the cabin, Gardevoir answered with the same calmness as before: "Although
According to the destiny I have 'observed', his appearance should have been earlier than your arrival."
"What changes happened in the meantime?"
Seemingly not paying attention to the rude actions of several players who did not intend to enter this room, the woman covered in black gauze then quietly turned her head: "The only ones who can escape the observation of Destiny Weaver are you who do not belong to Destiny.
For adventurers who are in control, and for those who are beyond the control of fate, although predetermined matters will continue to move forward according to the trajectory of fate, once factors that are not governed by fate appear, the trajectory will change."
"To use the metaphor you adventurers are accustomed to, it's like a train that has changed its tracks." She pointed to the front of her as she said this: "If no changes were made, the train originally used for seaside sightseeing would be
We can’t drive to places like Freedom Square.”
"Seaside sightseeing?" Asahi Dongsheng, who was standing behind Duan Qing as he raised his head, also showed a curious look on his face: "When did there be more trains with this kind of function in our cities in the free world?"
"Similar things are everywhere in Redcar City. Don't pretend to be ignorant." Duan Qing turned back expressionlessly: "And this is not the issue we are concerned about now."
"We now want to know the whereabouts of Violet."
He said these words and at the same time looked in the direction of Gardevoir. The woman in black gauze, who seemed to understand what the other party meant, then quietly looked back at Duan Qing's face, her eyes fixed like the night sky.
Profound: "She is one of the detached people who have escaped the control of fate. At present, I can no longer grasp her whereabouts, but since someone has prevented that 'existence' from coming, then the only possibility I can think of is her.
.”
"After all, she was once a famous person who extended her research hands into that forbidden area."
Having said this on behalf of the other party, Duan Qing's eyebrows began to frown more and more tightly: "The opponent who can make people with Violet's level of strength unable to escape must be as strong as her, or even stronger than her.
The guy with stronger strength, judging from the performance of the man who calls himself Distea on the other side of the square, he does have such a level of strength..."
"The place of fighting is probably not in our world." Xue Linghuan Bing, who shook his head and leaned his back against the alley, also expressed his inference: "If it is with Vallie
A battle between guys of the same level will definitely cause chaos in the free world, but Ms. Gardevoir did not observe any signs——"
"That is in the void world."
Pointing to the huge black aura that rose in the distance again in the sky outside the black magic cabin, Duan Qing exhaled involuntarily: "That thing that didn't know whether it was a human or a ghost fell out of the black hole in the void before. It must have been there before.
They are all lurking in the void world. Although I don’t know why he can easily tear the boundary between the void and reality, at least his origin is very clear.”
"Then Violet must be on that side too."
Repeating the words that seemed to comfort himself, the gray-robed magician once again confirmed the follower options in his character interface: "It should be like this... No, it must be like this."
"Is there any way to confirm the situation in another world?"
He turned around suddenly, and his eyes full of hope and expectation were focused on Gardevoir in front of him: "As a destiny weaver, you should have some way to monitor it, right?"
"...The Destiny Weaver can only see destiny clearly, but not the void that carries it." Looking faintly in the direction of Duan Qing, Gardevoir showed an inexplicable look in his eyes: "Just like you can see
Everything is the same as before Qing Qing - do you have the ability to grasp all the whereabouts in every corner that you can't see?"
"But I am a magician. If the trajectory of magic can be traced, I can also find its source." Patting his chest vigorously, Duan Qing replied solemnly: "You are
It shouldn’t be difficult for a strong person who can determine the existence of Morna through the thread of fate to confirm their origin and whereabouts, right?”
"I have said before, I cannot sense Violet's existence."
Stopping his strange gaze at the other party, Shadow Mage Gardevoir hid his side face in the movement of turning around: "People who are separated from the favor of fate cannot leave any trace in the eyes of the weaver of fate.
Yes, even if you are infinitely close to correct with my previous guess, I still can't do such a thing as 'tracking'."
"If you can't trace the existence of Violet, then trace the existence of that person." Pointing to the dark storm that was constantly erupting on the other side of the city, Duan Qing continued in a rapid voice: "
If that person is not within the scope of the Thread of Destiny, it would be fine to find an energy singularity that exists in another world. That must be the place where a war once broke out——"
"I understand your eagerness to find out the whereabouts of the other party."
A low and feminine voice then appeared around everyone. The tone that sounded much softer had the power to completely suppress Duan Qing's words. With her back to everyone, she was so speechless.
Youchi was silent for a while, and then waved his hand without looking back: "Okay, although as a destiny weaver, the request you just made is really too demanding, but -"
"I still have a way."
She moved slightly and disappeared smoothly and quickly into the darkness of the room. Duan Qing, who took two steps forward, hesitated for a while like an anxious ant, then turned back and whispered to the others:
"Help me guard this place, they might come and cause trouble."
"I'll come as soon as I go."
After exchanging one last look with Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was leaning against the corner of the street, his figure then disappeared into the interior of the black magic hut. The terrifying darkness that pervaded the hut and the sinister wind that never stopped howling were all there.
Shi Ye did not become an obstacle for the gray-robed magician to catch up. Instead, he quickly sent his wind-like body to the end of the spiral staircase. His eyesight could no longer help Duan Qing distinguish the scene on the second floor, so he rushed out
After climbing the old steps, he could only keep running in the endless darkness. The layers of unimaginably huge quaint bookshelves and the layers of books placed on these bookshelves followed him as he kept moving forward.
, came to him like a mirage magnified many times in the virtual space: "Here is -"
"Void Library." The woman with a black gauze mask appeared beside him at some point and smiled faintly: "You should know this place, right."
"A place where a large amount of prehistoric knowledge and doctrine is stored. No matter what kind of unknown records and mysteries, you can find it here." Duan Qing said this involuntarily, and then turned to look at the woman in black gauze in front of him: "This
Can the place help us find any clues?”
"There's no clue. It can only be regarded as an attempt."
Countless huge bookshelves standing at unknown heights moved quickly backwards with mysterious power, and finally formed a stream of light that was like looking out of the window while riding a high-speed train, a huge light inlaid on the old wooden shelf.
The crystal ball then gradually appeared in the continuous passing of these streams of light, appearing in front of Duan Qing and Gardevoir in a crystal clear way: "This is also a method that has been tested before."
"I can't guarantee the effect. Whether it can be successful or not...it all depends on luck."
