"Ah, I finally found you."
Straight through the noisy crowd, the magician player who just appeared here looks no different from other ordinary magician players, except for the name ID that also unabashedly shows his identity and the force he belongs to. Among these
The crowd of players he passed through attracted eyebrows: "I heard that you are the Sky-Breaking Blade and the person who disappeared from the Fool's Adventure Group a long time ago, so I came."
"...It's you." Duan Qing was silent for a moment while looking at the four words "Backwind Leisurely", and then glanced in the direction of the blooming flowers left behind him: "You are here to sell again.
What?"
"Promotion?" Repeated the word, Nifeng Youran then smiled helplessly as if he understood something: "Ha, there is no problem with the word 'promotion'. After all, during this period of time, door-to-door sales have
There should be more people asking you for advice."
"Really?" Duan Qing still had an indifferent expression: "We have indeed received a lot of requests for assistance during this period. Of course, there are many people who want to take the initiative to provide us with help - or provide financial sponsorship.
, but most of them are one of the member guilds of the New Alliance, and they can be regarded as our insiders."
"You, an active professional player in Wizard, plan to negotiate with us under the same name?"
As he said these words, a sharp feeling gradually appeared on his expressionless face. Nifeng Youran, who was aware of it, then tugged on the gray magic robe on his body and removed the pocket that was originally blocking his head.
The cap was a little tighter: "You worry too much."
"I am indeed here to be a representative this time, but I am not a representative of Wizard."
A bit of smile escaped from the shadow with only the lower half of his face, and Nifeng Youran, who lowered his head, began to exude a sharp aura: "Don't forget my other identity: I am Immeraid's
One of the representatives at the table is also the chief magic apprentice of the water mage Christine."
"...You represent the Council of Mages?" Duan Qing was slightly surprised by the answer. Duan Qing couldn't help but look diagonally above the camp, which was still restoring its original appearance: "Where is the Thousand Fingered Crane?"
"Of course she is also one of the envoys representing the Mage Council, one of the first batch." She emphasized the last few words, and Nifeng Youran could not help but show a bit of pride: "Because of the lack of progress during this period, the Council
I finally decided to send a replacement envoy, and that person is me."
"Is this also the assessment of the Parliament?"
Looking at most of the magician members and players who were still busy at the end of his field of vision, Duan Qing, who had been silent for a long time, finally broke his silence: "The Council of Mages thinks that Thousand Zhihe can no longer be reused?"
"No, even if you are a member of the Seven-person Council, you will not easily comment on other members and their chief magic apprentice." Nifeng leisurely raised his head and smiled: "Interfering with the teaching work of other great magicians is not allowed in the Council of Mages.
Li is a taboo among taboos, and no one is willing to take the initiative to take this anger on themselves."
"I came here this time because the Council of Mages thought that Thousand-Zhihe Crane... ahem, maybe I didn't fulfill my responsibilities a little bit." He gestured to clear his throat, and then the magician took two sticks.
He raised his pinched fingers in front of Duan Qing: "The Mage Council needs to develop, especially now that this new continent has been discovered. The branch of the council must be established as soon as possible to prevent the Magic Empire and other guys from abusing these ancient resources.
Grab and take away at will."
"These things you mentioned have already happened a long time ago." Then Duan Qing curled his lips and muttered: "But Xiaoqian has definitely not been idle during this time, she just-"
"She just keeps hanging around you."
After finishing this sentence on behalf of the other party, Nifeng Youran, who was wearing a magic robe and hood, didn't seem to care at all about upsetting the legendary figure in front of her: "This matter was mentioned in her report. She claimed that it was for
To better manage the local team relationship, it is also to improve my magic skills - ha! What to improve? Are you sure it is your magic skills, not your pitiful and wishful thinking? "
"..."
"Sorry, my choice of words may not be appropriate."
Facing Duan Qing's silent stare at him, Nifeng leisurely dropped his arms that he had just stretched out to both sides: "But in the eyes of the members of Immeraid, our Freya and her men
The chief magic apprentice has indeed delayed his business. If things continue like this, we don’t know when our branch will be established."
"So they replaced you?" Duan Qing took a deep breath and finally suppressed the dull feeling in his heart: "How can I believe what you said?"
“Wouldn’t it be easy to ask the Mages’ Council about this kind of thing?”
As if he was telling something that should be taken for granted, Nifeng Youran raised his eyebrows in surprise: "If I remember correctly, you should also be one of the chief magic apprentices, right? Don't you also lack the most basic skills?
trust and loyalty?”
"..."
"Ah, I forgot that you have been out of touch with the Mages Council for longer than anyone else." Nifeng Youran reached out and pressed the edge of his hood. Nifeng Youran seemed to know Duan Qing's silence this time again.
Reason: "What a pity. When the rest of us are trying our best to build a good relationship with Emerald, you, the most important guy, are not here. If you had chosen to stay in Sky City, the situation would be
Maybe it won’t be like this now, hahahaha!”
"It is true that I have lost contact with the Mages Council for a relatively long time, but in terms of the time I have lost contact with my mentor, you should not be far behind me." Ignoring the sarcasm in the other party's words, Duan Qing
Finally started his own counterattack: "How long has it been since you last seen Christine?"
"I'm afraid this is the biggest reason why the Council of Mages chose you to come here."
It was another silence that brought the atmosphere to a freezing point, but the role of silence changed subtly. Nifeng Youran, who lowered his head again, also hid his face in the interlacing of light and shadow again, and after a while, he slowly spoke out.
Answered his own answer: "Yes, compared to situations such as being out and not returning, and having a frozen reputation, the current situation of 'losing a mentor' is the most desperate. The Mages Council, which cannot determine Christine's whereabouts, cannot escape."
Let’s choose a new water magician in advance to take over the opponent’s position.”
"I have been a joke in Imorydri for this period of time." The clenched fist slowly loosened again, and a bitter arc appeared at the corner of Nifeng Youran's mouth again: "Even if I choose a new one,
Member of the Council, I have been recognized as Christine's chief magic apprentice and I can no longer inherit this position and responsibility. If I want to regain my future in this world, I can only find my mentor safely.
Come."
"Very good, at least on this point, we have the same purpose as you." He crossed his arms and nodded, Duan Qing's expression and tone also softened a little: "We already have some in the realm of the void.
Progress, I hope your presence will not hinder it."
"Humph, I will find her in my own way." Without accepting Duan Qing's kindness, Nifeng Youran resumed his original sharp and arrogant attitude: "The chief magic apprentice cannot bow to the magic apprentices of other factions, Weiza
It is impossible for Germany to easily accept gifts from the new alliance, so just watch with your eyes wide open."
"Okay, okay, as long as you don't waste the efforts of Xiaoqian and her team during this period." He reached out to press the hostility coming towards him, Duan Qing curled his lips and turned his face to the side again: "And -
—For some unknown reason, Freya and her apprentice are not in a stable mood and state right now, so you'd better pay attention."
"If they ended up like this because of their own reasons and methods... Oh, then there's nothing I can do to help." Spreading his hands, Nifeng leisurely replied with a meaningless look: "They should know this truth much better than me.
, otherwise——things will really become difficult to handle.”
"You can go visit Freya first, it's in that direction." Pointing to a corner of a camp behind the right side of the other party, Duan Qing, whose forehead was covered with black lines, replied in a low voice: "Related matters
You should check with her yourself. The outcome of the negotiation depends on your ability. In addition... there is one more thing I want to remind you. This camp is full of various guilds, clubs and local forces.
,Be careful when you speak and do things.”
"There is also an enemy's spy hiding here, right?" It seemed that he had already understood the situation here, and Nifeng leisurely smiled with understanding: "Now that you have been 'exposed', this situation cannot occur at all.
It’s just as it should be.”
"Even if you only consider the bright side, more people like me will find fault with you."
************************************
Nifeng Youran's words are not without purpose. Indeed, more and more guild players and original forces in the free world have begun to find Duan Qing as time goes by. Some of them do so because they want to open up a new world.
As for Duan Qing's support, some people came here purely because of Duan Qing's past reputation. Already annoyed by this situation, the gray-robed magicians who were still busy repairing the Violet Domain also began to put similar
The reception work was assigned to other members of the Qingling Adventure Group, and when the situation got worse later, he had to use Whispering Liushang and the big guys of the new alliance as a shield for players who came to ask for autographs and photos.
Already.
However, no matter how many ways he uses to avoid the effects of his "return to the world," there are still some visitors that Duan Qing cannot refuse.
"Oh my! It's so desolate here!"
Amman Antel, who deliberately showed a loud voice and played with a metal ball in his hand, separated the team of players sent by Whispering Liushang to isolate and protect Duan Qing from interference, and walked over looking around: "But I like it! Even if
Even at the age I am now, the blazing fire called 'pioneering' has never been extinguished!"
"What kind of wind brings you here?" Duan Qing had to stop what he was doing, and took his body out of the purple light bathing him: "You seem to be in good spirits - already
Don’t you need to continue to punish yourself in the imperial capital?”
"Drenier was generous and the old prime minister guaranteed me with his life, so I was released." The old man stretched out his seemingly skinny arms and covered himself with a black coat and replied energetically:
"Oh my, my old life is still busy. It seems that the goddess of fate still doesn't intend to let my life end in inaction."
"If the life of the president who leads and manages the Adventurers Association of the entire continent can be called mediocre, then I can't imagine anyone else whose life can be more exciting." Duan Qing responded calmly.
Looking at the words of the old man in front of him: "Why, there is no need to take care of things in the empire?"
"Just leave those chores to Hannah."
Waving his hand casually, the former president of the Adventurers Association, who once stood on the opposite side of Duan Qing and was later imprisoned in Redcar City for a long time, replied nonchalantly: "And -
Look at the hard work of this trip, how could I just leave it alone and let someone else come?"
"Hard work?" He sighed silently in his heart, but Duan Qing finally agreed and asked: "What hard work?"
"Of course it's about establishing an adventurer branch!" Aman glared at the players in front of him, and then raised his beard and laughed a few times: "Isn't this a matter of course? Look at you guys
With so many adventurers gathered here now, I even feel like I’ve arrived too late!”
"As a member of the association, I naturally agree with your personal visit." He tilted his head and sighed aside, and Duan Qingfu put on his formulaic smile again: "But the situation here should be the same for you.
I see, let alone how desolate the conditions are, almost everyone here is working hard to revive the stronghold, and we really can’t spare any manpower——"
"No, no! I can take care of the branch affairs myself." Interrupting Duan Qing's words, Anman waved his hands with the bright reflection of the metal ball shining: "You just go about your business!"
"Sorry for the poor reception, but...it's really surprising that the president of the association went through so much trouble to come here in person." Duan Qing rolled his eyes, and started to test from another angle: "
This place is a mixed bag, and all forces are entrenched here. If we accidentally offend too many people, we people really can't afford it."
"A mixed bag of good and bad? Power is entrenched? Thank you for your ability to express it." He stared at Duan Qing with his eyes wide open for a while, and Anman Antel put his hands on his hips and blew his beard: "You have run this place in such a mess, how dare you call yourself...
An Imperial?"
"His Majesty the Emperor and the eldest princess, they have always been concerned about the movements of this guy like you!"
