"——Let's make a bet."
"What to bet on?"
"I bet you will rush up to me excitedly and give me a warm hug or something like that."
"……boring."
"Don't be so serious."
Walking in the same scene of ruins, the swordsman player named Jian Beidong was also talking casually as if he was thinking casually. The sword blade he was weighing up and down also followed the naked state standing in front of him, and the fluttering...
The hair was mixed together with the simple aura that hit his face: "Anyway, the result is already in front of us. Even if the person revealed in the end is not the person we imagined, there is no way for you and me to go back on it... Otherwise, this is the case."
"I'll just bet on the Sky Blade in my hand." He gestured the Qingfeng in his hand to the blue-haired female swordsman beside him, with a provocative expression on his face: "This is me.
How about the only treasure you have now?"
"Who wants your baby?" He was answered by the voice of Xu Yu Liushang with a look of disgust on his face: "It sounds like it's like a magic weapon, but it turns out it's not just rubbish swept up on the streets of the Sky City. How can you follow me?"
Can it be compared to the glorious flames?"
"I didn't ask you to use your Huayan as a bet. You can bet with anything you want." The expression on Jian Beidong's face still looked relaxed and determined: "Anyway, I will definitely win in the end, so you can bet with whatever you want."
They will all be given to me obediently."
"good!"
Finally, he couldn't get angry anymore with the proud look on the naked swordsman's face and the hateful eyes looking at him. He murmured and completely lost the majesty and calmness that he always had as a superior: "I'll take this bet!
Anyway, you just dumped the 'Flame Flower' twice in a row, you guys have already become jealous, right? If you win, what if I let you play with the Flame for two days?"
"Hahahaha! You jumped in here on your own." Jian Beidong, who started laughing, immediately turned behind the two of them: "Ninglan, you have to testify for me!"
"Of course." Ninglan, who also had a smile on her face and held her hands in front of her, nodded her head: "Although Ninglan herself has some suggestions, since it is a bet agreed to by both parties -
—”
"You, don't talk too much." Jian Beidong, who hurriedly interrupted the other party's words and stepped back in front of the maid player with his hands raised, also rolled his eyes and changed the topic to an unrelated direction: "Ah ha ha ha ha, what are you talking about?
It seems a little different from the style of Castle in the Sky."
"Originally, I thought it was someone from the Council of Mages who came here, but now it seems that is not the case." After returning to his usual calm and steady appearance, Wu Yu Liushang, who no longer looked at Jian Beidong, replied nonchalantly: "
This place is more like a remnant of ancient ruins. Not to mention the architectural style, even the actual state looks like it has not been used for a long time."
"The only thing that is certain is probably 'there is a master here', just like Molnar's haven." Jian Beidong held his chin and turned his head, maintaining his walking posture, and also raised his gaze.
Looking at the range of high towers in front: "It doesn't look like a large area, and the building complex is obviously centered on that high tower. Combined with the vision floating in the sky we saw before,
The figure...well, could it be the private domain of a certain great magician?"
"It may also be the private territory of the Magic Empire. After all, everything that happened before is more like the 'present ritual' of the Magic Empire." Guessing the answer that was getting closer and closer, the vigilance in Xu Yu Liushang's eyes also followed.
Flashing past: "But this possibility should be smaller. After all, according to Ninglan, the Fulla who just appeared in front of us should not cooperate with the Magic Empire."
"This is even more uncertain. After all, the Magic Empire's methods are also weird and changeable. Even the great magician Christine is on their side. If something unexpected happens and the plot unfolds -
-Well."
They also discovered countless magic runes flowing in front of them like a barrier. The three people's footsteps stopped in front of the powerful magic pressure that was constantly surrounding the tower. It seemed that the tower was already higher than the clouds.
Shi Ye was blown by the strong wind in the sky, standing in the center of a group of stone houses that also looked old and dense. The wind, which was much stronger than that of the Free Continent, seemed to have encountered an equally strong opponent here, and it kept blowing in front of the three people who were talking.
The sight of the sand and gravel was in sharp contrast to the calm and dead scene on the other side of the magic barrier. Not afraid of the strong wind, they also fixed their sights on the flowing runes of these magic circles. It seemed that
Trying to find out how to move on: "It looks like it's a forbidden area."
"At first glance, it seems that the center is the same as the core. Of course, outsiders are not allowed to enter at will, but...it doesn't look like there are many people inside."
"Fu La said that she just needs to keep walking to the central area, but she didn't even meet anyone at all! Do the dragons nowadays also like to talk nonsense?"
"She shouldn't be boring enough to deceive us in this way, and she mentioned that person's name, so-"
The sound of crashing then sounded in the depths of the ruins close to the three people, causing the feeling of collapse and scattered bricks and rubble quickly forming in their ears. They suddenly put down their vigilance.
With their respective weapons raised, their eyes focused on the embarrassed figures gradually climbing up among the ruins: "Ouch? Isn't this road too difficult? I should have asked Violet to pass me over.
……Huh?"
"It's really you."
Patting the dirt on his body, the figure who climbed up suddenly became clear in front of everyone with a surprised face: "When I saw the firebird earlier, I thought it might be you, but I didn't expect - what?
Don’t you recognize me?”
"Hee hee." He couldn't help but snicker? Among the stunned trio, Ningyu Ninglan took the lead in flashing a rapidly moving light and stood in front of the other party: "Leave them alone? Sir, they just don't know how.
Just talk."
"Oh, really?" The gray-robed magician walked out of the ruins while holding on to the wall, and stood in front of everyone again. Then he also showed a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, we have plenty of time to tell each other's stories. By the way,
You seem to have gone through a lot of hardships to get here, right? I really didn’t expect it at first—"
"Duan Tianfeng!"
The passionate call then interrupted his chattering like an old man. The fragrant wind that came over also carried the whispers. The white-armored and blue-haired figure suddenly appeared in front of Duan Qing. Her calmness had long faded, and her eyes were flowing.
After passing the excitement of release, his hands that wanted to reach out to hug each other were interrupted by a cough from behind him: "Cough cough! Cough cough!"
"Um - long time no see."
Ignoring the way Wu Yuliu was frozen in place and trembling, Jian Beidong, who finally came forward, smiled and patted Duan Qing on the shoulder: "I heard you changed your account? You still can't log out. Is that true?
Is it?"
"Ah, there are some problems outside." A familiar and warm feeling flowed through his heart? Duan Qing shook his head and looked at the face of the familiar and handsome man in front of him: "But I am doing well in this world.
Pretty good.”
"I see, I haven't seen you for a while, and I've almost become a big landowner." Looking up at the tower behind Duan Qing, Jian Beidong pointed upward and yelled: "And you are so
Landowners are also different from ordinary landowners in that they take up space as high as the sky."
"Don't talk nonsense, this is not our territory." With a righteous expression, Duan Qing then smiled and gestured to his side and behind him: "This is my mentor's territory, and we are just living under someone else's roof now.
She is just a member, but it is precisely because of her efforts that we are able to survive on this grassland."
"Oh? So you're hooking up with a powerful NPC master again?" The answer was Jian Beidong's exaggerated shout: "I'm really jealous of you! It's like this every time I play the game! Inside and outside
With so many people trying to mess with you, you can actually make such a big splash. Not only do you encounter one adventure after another, but you can also bring out one powerful NPC after another to protect you in the game——"
"You guys are helping me with this. I also know what you did." Duan Qing shook his head helplessly: "As for Violet, she and I also
It's not a master-disciple relationship in the full sense. My abilities are far behind. You see, I can't control this barrier. I can only crawl over from the ruins next to it..."
"Violet?"
Patting the other person's shoulder and repeating the name, Jian Beidong's expression changed from the hard thinking at the beginning to a realization: "Wait a minute, is it Violet from the Frey Empire? She's not, she's not...
"
"I know, there are rumors that she is dead now——"
"Isn't she a great beauty?"
Exhaling an unexpected and incomprehensible word, Jian Beidong laughed and hugged Duan Qing's body: "Quick, quick, quick! Are you a good brother? If you are a good brother, please introduce me to me quickly. I am in the empire.
I looked at Laura’s little face every day and almost vomited blood—ouch.”
"Although it is a good thing for me that my old friend's temper has not changed, but your reaction was a little too conspicuous." Duan looked at the sight of the naked swordsman being slapped on the head by the black-faced Whisper Liusou.
Qing couldn't help but reveal a wry smile: "Also...has the relationship between you two gotten better?"
"No way, she is jealous - eh."
Jian Beidong, who rolled his eyes and raised his head, then showed an expression as if his plot had succeeded: "That's right! The relationship between us has indeed become better than before!"
"Although I feel sorry for you, brother, you know that I have never been able to resist mature women." He pointed at his chest with a smile. Jian Beidong then winked at Duan Qing and declared: "In total, the words
Shang has also become a mature woman, and she is perfect for me! Just go and play with your beautiful mentor and beautiful companion! It has nothing to do with either of us!"
"……oh?"
Duan Qing seemed a little surprised by the statement in front of him. He raised his eyebrows and looked back and forth at the two people in front of him. Jian Beidong, who was supporting his waist with both hands, also puffed up his chest and turned his side of the secret language Ninglan more and more.
He couldn't help but laugh and the murderous aura that vaguely spread around him completely ignored the past: "What? Don't believe it? If you don't believe it, look at her like this now. Have you ever seen her excited after seeing you? She can't even believe it now."
I don’t even dare to shake your hand—oh!”
"Take it!"
A flying kick full of resentment then sent away the swordsman player who was still nodding his nose arrogantly, followed closely by the whispering Liushang who threw the Hua Yan sword in that direction.
She yelled angrily, unable to bear it anymore, and then with uncontrollable tears and smile, she flew into the arms of the defenseless Duan Qing.
*******************************
"The wind here doesn't seem to be as strong as the wind on the grassland before. Is it my imagination?"
"It's just that we are floating in the sky and have been facing strong winds in the sky. Compared with the wind element energy caused by the earth veins on the Wind Continent, this level of natural wind is still very easy to bear."
"Didn't your mentor have the idea of building a windproof barrier? Just like the city in the sky."
"Although my mentor's magic level is very high, she has a deep disdain for the Mage Council. She will definitely not imitate the practices of the Mage Council, even if it is the city and technology they later occupied."
The chaos caused by the burst of emotion gradually subsided after a flurry of excitement. The scene led by Duan Qing also extended along the side of the tower group along with the dialogue and exchanges between several people.
He and Xu Yu Liushang, who were talking to each other, showed no sign of separation during the process. Even the voices explaining their respective situations were low and tactful: "I will tell her later."
Let me introduce you and see if I can get you some more favorable treatment."
"No need, I only have one condition, and that is to live with you."
"This, this... I don't know if the resources here are enough. After all, the Sioux and Wabu tribes combined are already quite large, and there are also those people from the Lufen Chamber of Commerce-"
"Humph, can these be considered reasons and excuses?"
Amid the inseparable snickers of Ning Lan, the blue-haired swordswoman suddenly pushed Duan Qing's hand away. She stared at the slightly embarrassed opponent with resentful eyes for a long time, and finally revealed herself again.
Always elegant and confident smile: "You don't really believe Jian Beidong's lies and think I have given up, do you?"
"Although you and I know each other's personalities thoroughly, but - haven't you been living a little too luxuriantly in your recent life?"
She looked at the long-awaited white-haired figure that gradually appeared in front of the ruins, and reminded her softly in a meaningful tone.
