"Wouldn't it be a pity to waste such a good opportunity?"
At the same time, in the dangerous swamp deep in the Starwind Plain to the southwest outside the City of Freedom, the figure belonging to Duan Qing, the central party, was also lowering his head to explore under the protection of Fula. It seemed that he was in this wilderness.
What is confirmed in the uninhabited place: "Those people who attacked us inexplicably? Please, if they really had the perseverance and ability to chase us here, then they wouldn't have been just small gangsters in the City of Freedom.
"
"Even if they are searching, it is impossible for them to come to a place like this - that is to say." He clapped his hands and raised his head. The gray-robed magician's expression was also full of confidence and determination at this time: "This is the time.
It's the best time for us to conduct leyline inspections, and they can't possibly keep up with our pace."
"But the physical conditions of you mortals are probably not able to adapt to such an overly dangerous environment." Looking around at the scene full of swamp gas and gray plants, even the dragon lady who is Fulla couldn't help but frown.
brow: "In the past few days, we have indeed not been attacked by any other mortals, but we have encountered a lot of attacks from wild beasts and magical beasts."
"Isn't it true that you, the Dragon Clan, are here to take charge? As long as you take off part of your disguise and leak some of your aura to them, it can act as a deterrent." Duan Qing's face still looked unconcerned.
: "The masking of breath is just a common agreement between you and me in human society. There is no need to continue to follow it in this environment that is worse than the wilderness... What, have you adapted to being a human? Or -
—”
"Afraid of scaring me and the kid next to me?"
As he said these words, his eyes also fell on the petite figure standing there quietly with her arms folded in the weeds not far away from the two people. The girl who became the focus of their eyes also tightened her gaze.
The long staff in his arms was much taller than him. The frightened expression on his face was soon dispersed by his strong fighting spirit: "Nina, Nina is not afraid! Nina
Just, just..."
"Okay, okay, this time it's my fault, big brother." Duan Qing's cute and pitiful look made Duan Qing hurriedly put up his hands, and the palms he wanted to extend had to be taken back because they were covered with soil.
: "After our adventure is over, big brother will treat you to the most delicious barbecue in the world, okay?"
"Really? It's the one Nina had eaten before?" Her big, flashing eyes were filled with sudden joy, and Nina's mood immediately turned from worry to peace: "Great! Let's start right away!"
"Then let's start right away." Feeling the sight of Furla stabbing his back behind him, Duan Qing secretly wiped away a little of the cold sweat on his forehead: "According to the plan, what needs to be explored today is this area, and
Is it possible to go to the foot of the mountain to the west in front of me?"
"certainly."
As if she nodded her head obediently, Nina then quietly closed her eyes. The slender staff originally held in her arms was erected in the swamp as she ran.
In the center, a burst of bright white light appeared in her increasingly solemn expression: "Then Nina is about to start. Big brother and big sister should ensure Nina's safety."
"Believers in the highest heaven follow the instructions of fate, pray for the stars, and follow the traces of the trajectory..."
The light began to extend along the slender and simple wooden staff to the girl's body, and the surrounding air began to buzz. Duan Qing, who no longer disturbed the other party, seemed to be thinking about what the girl was thinking at this time.
He was accustomed to the ritual prayers being uttered. He turned around and took Furla to the far side of the open space: "How does it feel to see a new weaver of destiny rising?"
"...I don't have any extra thoughts." Faced with Duan Qing's question, Fula still looked indifferent: "Don't underestimate me, mortal, even after only a few years, I have seen everything
They have much more stuff than you."
"I just want to find a random topic to chat with you more. Anyway, we have nothing to do now." Duan Qing, who curled his lips, spread his hands in vain: "This Miss Nina was also the one we asked for clues earlier.
Gardevoir gave it to us when we were married, and I thought you had become familiar with her during this time."
"Even now, after having been with mortals for so long, I still can't understand some things about your group."
It seemed that Duan Qing's words finally aroused some interest. The dragon lady who was always vigilant about the surroundings also took off the hood on her head: "During the period of following you, what have you done to me?"
Other individuals who appear around your life have shown different attitudes, but even based on my observation, you do not have a complete and unified standard for treating these things."
"Sometimes you are not as trusting as I imagined towards the people with whom you are extremely close, but sometimes you show your love and determination to those with whom you have just been in contact for a short time.
Combing her long blond hair that had been restrained in the hood, Fulla continued to ask in a low voice: "Is it because of the complex inner structure of your human race?"
"You can understand it this way." Duan Qing nodded his head slowly, looking back at the other party's indescribably beautiful face with rather unexpected eyes: "Although the life cycle and experience are shorter than your dragon clan, but
Our experiences should be much richer and more colorful than those of your dragon clan. If you decide not to return to your own clan for a long and long hibernation, but continue to adventure with our adventure group, you should also be able to do the same in a few years.
You must have the same feeling."
"If it were a year ago in your human calendar, I would never believe what you said, but now -" The slender and white-looking fingers kept flowing between the smooth long hair, Fula
His eyes then gradually gained some wisdom after a complex flicker: "In other words, you have a connection with this girl named Nina that I don't know about?"
"As expected of the wise dragon clan, he came up with the answer so quickly." Looking back at the figure of the little girl who was still clumsily performing the ceremony, Duan Qing's expression also softened: "Explain what we said at the beginning.
When I came here to hope that Shana would help us, I really didn’t expect that she would send Nina to us, but this also just shows that this person who has suffered hardships and was finally entrusted to the hands of the fateful sisters
The little guy now has the capital to survive independently."
"I'm really curious about how many traces you have left in this world." Fulla, who gradually put her long hair on top of her head and raised her arms high, showed off her pride in front of Duan Qing.
Human form: "Including me, all the individual beings who have come into contact with you seem to have had their fate changed because of you. Depending on the degree of change, the final outcome is completely different."
"I didn't do this deliberately, I just acted according to my own heart." Duan Qing curled his lips and explained: "And there are people who have changed that I didn't expect accidentally, as well as people I did for
People who try hard but are unable to do anything in the end." Gu
"Are you referring to the past? Or now?" The expression on Fulla's face became more and more interested as the chat progressed: "Are you talking about the guys you didn't save? Or are they?
These teammates around you now?"
"I have been working hard to change my miserable future, and now I am busy because of this."
It seemed that he was talking about a topic that he didn't want to touch but had to mention. The expression of the gray-robed magician then became a lot more sad: "Remembering the disappeared existences in the past only makes me more sad.
I still hope that I can focus on everything in front of me and take good care of the Qingling Adventure Group and other people I care about."
"I'm very curious about which human individuals are within the scope of your 'care'." The proud twin peaks gradually disappeared as she lowered her arms. Fula, who was approaching, lowered her head and looked down at Duan Qing's face: "For example...
When we passed that human camp a while ago, you seemed to be very familiar with the owner of that camp."
"Really, then I have to pay more attention in the future." Duan Qing touched his nose and said with a bitter smile: "Otherwise, if the people close to me are always exposed, these innocent people will be affected by me sooner or later.
."
"The ultimate solution to prevent your friends from suffering unreasonable disasters is to deal with the individual existences that threaten you." Fulla said some kind of horrifying fact in a casual tone: "In the eyes of us dragons, 'extinction'
'At certain moments, you have to make choices. Those so-called relatives and friends you are involved in are just threads of fate that are not deeply tied. If those teammates who have been around you are defeated by your opponents, you will regret it.
."
"...Speaking of which, Ling Bing has been staying at the City Lord's Mansion since that night's declaration."
Duan Qing, who did not want to go further into this topic, shook his head and said with a fake smile: "I heard that she really set the stage for this declaration, and has defeated countless masters recently... I really don't give up.
Take every opportunity to become stronger."
"In your mortal plan, isn't this a rehearsal?" Looking at the other party with a rather strange look, Fulla's tone then became confused: "And I am also very familiar with the way of communication between you.
Curious - I remember that you and I have been acting together during this period of time, how do you know the actions and status of that human woman... ahem, the leader of our adventure group?"
"You can think it is the unique contact method of our group of adventurers, or it is the result of Violet's magical communication in the middle." Duan Qing smiled and took out a magic communication stone from his arms: "And you
You also know that when we held the promotion ceremony competition on the grassland, we had already equipped all the high-level magic communication equipment designed by Violet herself. As long as we are not subject to too obvious magic interference, we will
Being able to keep in touch and communicate at all times...well."
"Since we've already talked about it, let's take this opportunity to get in touch." His eyes moved from Fula's pupils to the surface of the gem in his hand. Duan Qing hesitated for a moment and then injected his magic power into the communication.
Shi Zhong: "...Hello? Are you there?"
"..."
The magic communication seemed to have been successfully connected, but no words came from the other end of the communication. There were only the sounds of fighting, the sound of metal collisions and the whistling of sword energy. The sound of breathing appeared for a while, and the brows gradually furrowed.
The atmosphere around Duan Qing and Fula who was still waiting to speak brought a hint of heaviness: "It seems that you contacted me at the wrong time - what's wrong?"
"..."
Still not answering Fulla's question, the gray-robed magician listened carefully to the sounds coming from the communication stone, and then at a certain moment when those chaotic whistling sounds and a series of metal collisions sounded, he shouted in the direction of the communication stone in his hand.
He yelled to remind: "Attention! This is a four-hit combo!"
"Don't stop! Keep dodging!"
"There's movement to your right! Direction 150 - how many people are you fighting with?"
The violent bombardment then echoed on the other side of the communication with the sound of various debris and rocks falling to the ground, replacing the original fierce sound of fierce fighting. The low voice unique to Xue Ling Huan Bing also followed.
There was a sound inside the magic gem that Duan Qing and Fula were staring at together, as if they had just taken a moment of respite from the fierce battle they had endured: "There is only one person - stop talking nonsense, there are others.
Nothing happened? If not, I will die!"
"Is this the attitude towards a kind person? I just reminded you a lot." The solemn look on his face did not disappear, but Duan Qing's tone of reply was somewhat pretending to be relaxed: "
And there is actually an opponent who can fight you to such a passionate level, I am very jealous in my heart."
"It's Liangchen Meiyu." He blocked the other party's half-joking words with this name, and Xue Ling Huanbing's reply also contained a bit of gritted teeth: "And he came here with 'that' -
Fortunately, you and Violet prepared the mental law protection in advance, otherwise I would have been tricked long ago."
"...Okay, I believe in your ability."
A feeling of worry inevitably arose in his heart, and Duan Qing's eyes flashed with a moment of confusion when he looked at Nina's little figure in the distance. He closed his eyes and was silent for a moment, but finally took a deep breath and reminded each word.
Looking at the other party: "You have been familiar with and practiced the activation and countermeasures of Yi Sword moves for a long time on the previous Holy Mountain. I will only say one more thing here."
"All Yi Swords cannot appear out of thin air, but are a collection of countless understandings and reorganizations of the existing world rules. You only need to dismantle them based on this point."
