As players, the experiences in the game are often colorful and full of passion, so players' careers in every game world are almost always accompanied by battles, conflicts and other things full of struggle. Fortunately,
, the moderate difficulty and the game features that can be repeated can allow them to maintain a relatively relaxed mentality when facing these events. Therefore, after the initial adaptation, players encounter in the virtual reality game world
When conflicts and contradictions break out in front of them, they often face them with a spectator mentality - simply, they never give up on the fights they should fight, and they never miss the fights fought by others...
But at this moment, at this juncture, Duan Qing and the others did not have such a mentality - their first reaction was that the people they had just gotten rid of came to their door.
"What should I do? They actually came!" The girl began to spin in a circle: "Are we going to live in exile again..."
"When did we ever live like that?" Duan Qing knocked her on the head: "Don't get excited yet, they might not be looking for us, let's go out and see what's going on."
Without any confidence in his heart, Duan Qing still said these words first to stabilize the morale of the army. However, after everyone discussed for a long time, he still selected himself as the candidate for investigation, opened the door and walked out. The adventurers in the hall had already
After running outside the door amid the previous commotion, there were very few players left here, so Duan Qing could easily pass through the empty hall and see the dark crowd that had gathered at the door.
Behind that group of people, several players uniformly wearing short-sleeved cloth clothes looked back at them, and then nodded: "You're here."
"Uh...you are so polite." Looking at the Jianghu members who had met before, Duan Qing nodded in surprise: "When you were in "Jianghu"..."
"Different games require different styles." The man replied expressionlessly: "This is the attitude that professional players should have."
"Tsk, you're so professional." Duan Qing curled his lips, then looked outside: "What happened?"
"It's Tusker." The man replied: "He and his people blocked the entrance of the association, not knowing what to do."
"...Ah hahaha, what a coincidence." Cold sweat ran down Duan Qing's cheeks. He laughed dryly and slowly backed away: "There are so many people, so I won't go over and join in the fun...
"
"The president is here!"
"The president has arrived!"
Exclamations suddenly sounded from the crowd in front. When Duan Qing looked in that direction, the people there had separated into a line. The president of the Adventurers Association, Felix Stone, whom they had just met before, slowly passed through.
The crowd then walked to the front.
"It turns out to be Mr. Tusker." He put a fist in front of his belly with one hand and a fist behind his back with the other hand. Ferriston bowed slowly, then straightened up: "I wonder why you are looking for me...?"
"You guys from the Adventurers Association are getting more and more arrogant now."
He was answered by a majestic voice. Duan Qing moved quietly a few times, and then saw the tall man in the center of the group of figures on the opposite side in the gap between the crowd: "How dare you... dare to intrude into my territory.
!”
"Are you tired of living?"
The man had a thick beard, was wearing a more formal aristocratic dress than Freestone, and was holding a black cane used by nobles, but the black cane was different from this tall and strong man.
Compared with Tasker, it really didn't fit his image, because even the uniformly armed guards following him looked shorter than the bearded uncle.
And now, the real uncle is glaring in this direction with copper-bell-like eyes that are even more unfit for aristocratic temperament.
"Why did you say that?" Ferris straightened his sleeves and then raised his head: "The working conditions of our Adventurers Association have always been peaceful and stable..."
"Peace is nothing! You adventurers are the ones causing the most trouble every day! Fights, cheating, and even disobedience to the management, charging at the city guard! The merchants on Falls Street still protest against Carlos every day, and the Gordon family
The mansion has not been repaired yet! It has only been a few days since the attack on the parliament gate, have you forgotten? Huh?"
There was no change in the face of the tall and thin Ferriston, but the players standing behind him became ashamed, and some of them also became unnatural, because among the things that Tasker had experienced before, it seemed that
Their share. But before these people could retreat quietly, the words from the man with the cheeks shocked them.
"Now... they broke into my house again! They also stole important information!"
The cane in his hand hit hard, and the ground around Tusker seemed to shake: "What are you going to do? Ah? Are you going to rebel?"
"Your accusation goes beyond the normal limits, Your Excellency."
Within a few hundred meters, it seemed that only the roar of the bearded man was left, but Ferriston, who was still calm, kept a normal smile: "Although our Adventurers Association has a large number of people, they are all kind-hearted citizens and will never
Do what you say..."
"Stop talking nonsense to me!"
"Then what do you want to hear?" Ferriston adjusted his collar again: "Could it be that if you brought your own guards and rushed over in a fierce manner, I would have to cooperate with your wishes, and then let you do whatever you want in my life?
Is there a lot of activity in the association?”
As the words came to an end, Feriston's smile slowly faded: "With all due respect...this is impossible."
"You! Do you want to protect your members?"
"I am the president of the Adventurers Association. Of course, I should be responsible for the members of the Adventurers Association." Ferriston said calmly: "If you are just going to let you take away the members of this association... I really find it difficult to agree with it.
.”
The tall and thin man bowed slightly again: "Your Excellency... please understand."
"Okay! I heard that the president of the Adventurers Association has always been a protector of shortcomings, and I have seen it today." Tusker laughed angrily: "I still don't believe it, you really dare to stop me today..."
With these words, the tall, bearded man strode to the front of Ferriston in a few steps. However, unlike the players behind him who were overwhelmed by their fierce momentum, Ferriston, who was wearing a white shirt and a black waistcoat, still stood.
He remained motionless on the spot, looking confident. A fierce smile appeared on Tusker's face as he approached. As his thick beard grew, he raised his cane and pointed it directly at Freestone.
Hit it with a swipe.
There was a faint whistling in the air - the seemingly random attack of the cane actually produced the sound of wind and thunder piercing the air.
Snapped!
Everyone's eyes were dazzled, and then they saw clearly what happened between the two - a slender metal wire-like object extended from Feriston's arm suddenly appeared next to him, and the
A black cane blocked the outside of the right side. When everyone saw the scene clearly, the thin metal wire had been bent into an extremely exaggerated arc at Ferrystone's feet, and it was still not broken.
, because one end of the line had completely submerged into the ground beneath his feet.
"what is that?"
"It seems...it's a rapier, right?"
"Is there such a thin sword?"
"I haven't seen it before, it might be wire or something..."
Amid the whispers of the players, Ferriston, who stood with his feet side by side and one hand behind his back, looked straight at the bearded man in front of him, and his voice remained calm: "Your Excellency, Tusker, resorting to force should not be the behavior of a nobleman.
.”
"Bah, labor and management have long since ceased to be nobles." The uncle said with a fierce look on his face: "It's not because of you damn congressmen..."
He withdrew his cane and roared in a low voice: "But you have indeed gone too far with what happened today! If you don't give me a suitable explanation, then..."
He waved his hand, and the row of fully armed soldiers behind him shouted in unison.
"My position as guard commander is not for nothing!"
"...I understand."
He lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while. Then he turned his hand and withdrew his weapon while everyone was dazzled: "Since your Excellency is so insistent, then look carefully..."
"What exactly is your request?"
"Hmph, I'm afraid you don't dare to deny it." Tusker slapped his cane again, and then raised his voice: "Today...in the afternoon, someone broke into my mansion and ruined my banquet."
He glanced at the crowd of players behind him: "Later, he was discovered by my guards and ran away."
"You mean...the prisoner is an adventurer?" Ferriston responded calmly: "Or is he hiding in the association he belongs to?"
"Of course, two of my... guests recognized their identities." Tusker turned sideways and gestured to the back: "One of them was seriously injured in the battle with the other party.
Now he is lying in the Melios Center..."
Behind the neat soldiers, a figure slowly squeezed out. Although it was a little far away, people present could still see it. There seemed to be an ID-style name on the man's head.
"And the other one," Tusker pointed at the man who came out, "has made it clear to me... the fact that one of those guys is from you here!"
Feriston's eyes passed over the player behind Tasker, and then he turned his head: "So that's it... Dusty Rain and Waning Moon."
The player behind came forward and saluted Ferris at the same time: "Hello, President."
"I have just understood the general situation of the matter." Felicton looked at Chenyu Canyue and said: "Can you...can you identify those prisoners now?"
"Of course." Chenyu Canyue nodded casually: "Although I have some friendship with Lord Tusker, my identity is still an adventurer, and..."
He looked at the players behind him and smiled: "We adventurers all know each other very well."
"Well, that's true." Ferris nodded, "But...are you sure you didn't admit your mistake?"
"certainly."
The tall and thin man looked at Chenyu Canfeng's face. The latter seemed to understand what he meant and put on a faint smile: "Originally I might have admitted my mistake, but for the sake of my companions..."
"I won't admit my mistake."
Feriston looked at him quietly for a while, then took two steps back: "In that case..."
"Please identify the criminal who invaded Lord Tusker's residence."
A roar came from the group of players surrounding the gate of the Adventurers Association - hearing that the incident had reached this point, all the players involuntarily stepped back. Even if they were all players who liked to join in the fun and did not take it too seriously,
No one wants to take the blame for "not knowing what is behind this matter" - you know, Chenyu Canyue is a professional player known for his ruthlessness in the Sword of Justice. If he is in
At this time, who is determined to frame someone, there is probably no way to avoid that person. As for how he got into Tusker's lap, and the role of the Sword of Justice in this incident, it is not something they need to consider.
Something happened.
"Who, who is it..."
"Yes, come forward quickly."
"What's the point of stealing from someone else's house..."
"You have to admit what you have done, otherwise what kind of man would you be?"
Seeing Chen Yu Can Feng's increasingly malicious eyes, the players present began to panic. They looked at each other and pointed, which eventually turned into an even louder quarrel. Tusker showed a look of disbelief.
Felicity's smile became even stiffer due to the drama, and just when Chenyu Canyue was about to say Mengzhu's name, Duan Qing's voice finally rang out from behind the crowd.
"stop fighting!"
As if it had been agreed upon in advance, the increasingly fierce quarrels disappeared in unison. Everyone's eyes were shot in the direction of Duan Qing, and the man was seen pushing away the crowd on the left and right and walking slowly.
In front of everyone: "We did it."
Snap—pop—pop—
A slow and clear high-five sounded - with Tusker's eyes as if he was staring at prey, Feriston looked at Chenyu Cangyue expressionlessly: "Is it him?"
"Well……"
"I just said it, it was us who did it." Duan Qing answered first, and then looked around at everyone present: "Our 'Fool Adventure Group' announced that we were responsible for this incident, and our group leader... he was the witness.
The person who arrived is now inside."
"very good!"
What else did Freestone want to say, but he was interrupted loudly by Tasker who stopped high-fiving: "Then don't bother the others, guards!"
"exist!"
"Go in! Take all the prisoners away!"
"Wait a moment!"
Although Feriston's steady voice was not loud, it was clearly heard by everyone again: "Although you are the commander of the guards, you don't have the right to deal with prisoners privately, right?"
"Who do I have to deal with myself?" He was answered by Tasker's deep, muffled voice: "I just want to..."
"Let them hand over Tania's city defense map!"
