"Look, look at these poor guys, they are about to be beaten to death outside by these desperate people."
"It doesn't matter. We, the Magic Empire, can produce as many warriors as we want. But the crux of the problem lies in the delay in the attack plan - will the Magic Council really agree to this inexplicable plan? Let's conquer this barren land.
What’s the purpose?”
"Perhaps they also feel that relying on a Tyrannic Tower as a base is too unsafe, so they want to find a more suitable place in the void as a stronghold... Look at the situation at the bottom, that horse
Locke is still wreaking havoc there, and after all, the tower is not very stable at all."
"Yes, the key is that we haven't dealt with his abilities yet. Rather than wait for these unstable factors to gradually erupt, it would be more... huh?"
"Did you hear anything?"
In a room located in the corridor on the 88th floor of the Tower of Tyran, the conversation between several players sitting around the room suddenly stopped for a moment, and was clearly illuminated by the fluorescence of countless magic screens in front of them.
There were also expressions of surprise on those faces at this time, as if they were a group of turtles that were frightened and raised their heads to explore around: "It seems to be coming from next door."
"Next door? Not to mention next door, there are not many living people on the entire 88th floor, not to mention that our right hand side is already at the end of the number, and it is still far away from room 99 next door - Wow ah ah ah!
"
A dull thud was heard near the door of the room, and the impact caused by the huge energy explosion also sent the figures of the players closest to the door flying into the distance. The faces of a man and a woman appeared at the door.
The black shadows gradually became clear in the smoke and dust flying all over the sky, and the low voices and chuckles between each other also rose and echoed from the smoke and dust that had not completely dispersed: "I originally wanted to look for it,
But I didn’t expect it to be so close to our location... Hi."
"Hello."
Taking a step forward, the figure belonging to Duan Qing among the two figures also walked out of the darkness over there: "This is the central control room? It does look like that."
"If you want to visit, let's start by cleaning up the site first."
The shouts belonging to the players suddenly rose the moment Duan Qing's voice disappeared, and the battle that broke out at the same time ended in a few seconds. The purple energy arc was also accompanied by the harsh and tragic screams of these players.
The door of this room burst out with a cry, and disappeared above the void corridor with curls of green smoke: "I didn't expect it to be solved so easily. I thought these guys guarding here would be difficult to deal with."
"With Ms. Lorna as our battle backing, a few adventurers will not waste our time." Duan Qing, who was looking around the room, casually threw aside the corpse swallowed by the purple light and replied in a low voice:
"And if I'm not wrong, the players who can stay in this room are not only low in strength, but they also rely on clinging relationships to be able to stay in such a comfortable and key place - well."
"Is this the central control room we are looking for?" He looked back and forth at the magic screen and various magic operating devices in front of him for a long time, and the expression on his face began to become confused: "
I originally thought there would be an energy gathering point like a light pillar in this place..."
"Of course the energy gathering point is also within this area, but the use and regulation of this Talon Tower, which is a legacy from the ancient Magic Empire, is naturally more complicated than we imagined." Also walked in.
After seeing the scope of this room, Lorna's voice began to become deeper: "The supply of an entire tower is impossible without the existence of a central control room, but I didn't expect that they would actually control this
The room opened up into a bizarre place to watch every corner of the tower.”
"That means that if we want to find a way out, we still need to go somewhere else?"
"Of course, but there is enough help here for us. Judging from the magic circuit previously connected near the room, this central control room should be able to operate most of the other functions on this floor..."
"It's really unexpected."
His fingers tentatively operated on the magic devices in front of him, and Duan Qing's voice then echoed above the quiet room: "Like Fula, you are more familiar with this place than I imagined... It's because
Is it because you have been to this place earlier? Or is it because of your identity as the Destiny Weaver?"
"...I think the source of knowledge I know should be different from that dragon lady." Standing behind in silence for a while, Lorna, who was covered by a black cloak, replied calmly: "And these operating devices in front of me
, the experience of an adventurer alone is enough to tell the difference.”
"I didn't expect Ms. Lorna to be an adventurer." Without looking back, she continued to immerse herself in the devices in front of her. Duan Qing's deep voice still sounded continuously: "You seem to know us very well."
"..."
"Has there ever been any grudge between you and Tingyulou?"
As if aware of the once again silent attitude and reaction around the mysterious woman behind him, Duan Qing, who continued to be buried among a bunch of magic screens and magic devices, said in a low voice: "Including the previous encounter from the City of Freedom.
, you have already shown great hostility towards other adventure groups, including Wings of Freedom. If we didn’t know better, we would have thought that you were a member of an adventure group that had been suppressed and destroyed by them.”
"Not only for them, I am disgusted with all adventurers." She said this coldly, and then Luo Na's eyes that seemed to be substantial passed across Duan Qing's back: "It's what you did.
The Tower of Tyran became what it is now, and Norman lost his life."
"I'm sorry about Norman, but... the truth seems to be more than that." Duan Qing, who was checking the magic operating device, sighed slightly and paused for a moment: "From the past, we and you
Judging from the various adventures you have experienced, it seems that you know more information than we imagined, such as——"
"How did you know the name 'Duan Qing'?" Duan Qing, who seemed to have just finished checking the array of gems around the magic screen in front of him, straightened up and shook his head: "You seemed to have used this before.
He called me by his name once, and if I hadn't been in a dangerous battle situation, I might have jumped up in fear."
"...I just heard other people in your team use this title." Her movements became more hesitant, and Lorna, who was wrapped in a black cloak, replied in a low voice: "I don't think there will be any misunderstandings with this title."
"Although I don't feel any violation, not many people know this name." Duan Qing smiled under his breath, and his expression became much calmer when he raised his head again: "And... even if...
This is a fair reason, and the attitude you displayed during battle seems to be somewhat unexpectedly different from what I imagined."
"I don't understand what you are talking about." There seemed to be a purple arc flashing between her fingers, and Lorna began to stare closely at Duan Qing's face: "What's wrong with my fighting style?"
"That dagger." As if he was not worried about the hostility shown by the other party at this time, Duan Qing pointed at the chest of the black-robed woman: "My knowledge reserve is not very rich, but the Destiny Weaver can use a dagger.
As his own weapon? And he seems to be using it so skillfully?"
The surrounding magic light screen was still flashing. The eyes of Duan Qing and Luo Na then looked at each other in the small and medium-sized room, and then the two people moved slightly.
Confrontation-like movements between individuals gradually emerged, and finally the faint sounds from the corridor outside the door interrupted each other's attempts to speak: "...it seems like a guest is coming."
"If you calculate the time, it should be almost done."
Touching his nose to cover up his expression at this time, Duan Qing then let out a few helpless chuckles: "We can talk about these issues later. For now, let's find a way to get through the difficulties first.
.”
"Since you helped me escape from the eighty-ninth floor, I will naturally help you deal with the enemies on the eighty-eighth floor." Turning around slowly, the woman named Lorna then turned her attention to
Ahead: "This is the promise I once made, and it is also our agreement."
"I hate people who can't keep their promises."
Whispering the last words softly, the mysterious woman in black robe intertwined a large piece of purple lightning in front of her, and the ice-blue magical aura then dissolved and decomposed in the obstruction of this purple lightning.
The sky was full of freezing air, and he came to the room together with the black-armored warrior who had appeared in front of Duan Qing: "Sure enough, it was you who broke into the control room... How did you climb up?"
"I came up by the elevator." Duan Qing answered the other party's question casually, hiding under the protection of the purple power grid, and replied with a chuckle: "You who guard the entrances and exits of each floor must have never thought of returning.
There must be this kind of surprising way in and out."
"When you escaped earlier, I had thought of this possibility." In the energy exchange between blue and white and purple and black, he walked out of the darkness of the corridor. The black armored sword player who had severely injured Duan Qing
The low laughter was also dispersed behind the noise of the energy impact: "You fell from the central ring but did not die. You are really lucky in life."
"Even if I am not unconscious, I will not die because of this level of danger." Duan Qing grinned and stared at the big sword player and replied in a relaxed voice: "If you want to use this kind of
If you want to kill me in this way, you have to put in more effort."
"Even if you are still alive and kicking now, we still have many ways to deal with you in this tower."
Shaking his head slightly, the sword warrior with his hands behind his back turned to look overlooking all living beings: "As long as you don't continue to simmer in the jurisdiction, but choose to stand in front of us, you will have nothing to do with it."
A chance to win.”
"That's not necessarily true. After all, my life is very tough." As if in response to the arrogance shown by the other party at this time, Duan Qing, who crossed his arms, also looked stern.
: "If the trump card you are referring to is the magician in front of me, I have now found a very reliable helper."
"...I see, here is the help of a destiny weaver." His eyebrows slowly sank into the darkness that was difficult to discern, and the black-armored sword warrior's voice sounded a bit pensive again: "
But even so, the future that happens to you should be within the scope of calculation, as long as the factors with the same conditions are used as calculation replacements... hum."
"Hold him, I will be back soon." His eyes stayed on Duan Qing's face hidden behind the layers of energy for a long time. The black-armored sword warrior turned around and walked towards the darkness of the corridor behind him: "If you still
If anyone else appears here to help them, let’s deal with them as enemies.”
"Wait, you actually ran away like that?"
As if unwilling to let the player in front of him leave, Duan Qing shouted in a low voice toward the direction where the black-armored warrior was about to disappear: "The battle between us has just begun. Do you think that just by relying on the puppet next to you, you can...
Can you restrict my movements on this floor?"
"The contest between us has ended long ago."
After saying these incomprehensible words, the player who had disappeared deep into the corridor replied in a low voice: "As for whether I can restrain you... Hey, if you are still as smart as I expected, you
You should know the result in your heart."
"Shut up." Duan Qing, who finally lost his acting skills and patience and was touched by the other party's pain point, spoke again with a cold meaning: "Stop talking nonsense, where is Ninglan?"
"She, haha."
As if mentioning something pleasant, one or two more obvious low laughs followed from the blurring outline of the black shadow: "She ran fast, and she forcibly left her body here.
,otherwise--"
"Maybe there will be one more toy in my hand."
The ear-piercing sound of breaking the ground then sounded from the dark center where the mysterious black-armored warrior gradually disappeared. It was caused by several rock spikes that appeared there and rose up from the place where he just disappeared.
Duan Qing, who had used these magics, put away his hands as if to vent his voice, and disappeared together with his menacing eyes in the afterglow of the sudden energy duel at the door of the room.
