Anta Town in Talon County is a town near the edge of Talon Avenue. The conditions here are the same as those in the novice village that ordinary players encounter when they first enter the game. Even if you are rich, you can't buy anything useful.
Even if you shop around the whole town, you can only find one or two places specializing in selling things in the few streets, and then in those stores that are as simple as those in Greenstone Village
, find some specialties such as local fruits and herbs, and taste the local characteristics of the free world. However, players who come here will not ignore this place for this reason. In addition, there are several places nearby for novices to fight monsters and upgrade.
In addition to the area where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the plains, there is another important reason, which is that this place is located on the edge of Fars Fortress.
Every day, countless soldiers and merchants come and go from this place, and along with them, there are countless players passing by.
On January 4, 795 in the New Calendar, the appearance of Anta Town seemed to be no different from usual. Countless caravans from the principality or the empire passed by this place, and then stopped in front of some adventurers.
Resting on the roadside, some of the goods may be bought by some wealthy players, and most of the rest will be transported to various places in the principality for sale. However, there are still many passing adventurers.
The attitude towards these goods was not very cold. Instead, they rested for a while and then hurriedly left the place. Among them were players from all over the principality who planned to go to Fars Fortress, and there were also players who came from the empire and planned to go to Fars Fortress.
For those who wandered around the Principality for a while or went to the Free City for a while, since it was still early, most of them still looked like they had not yet woken up. However, they were still excited about the destination they were about to arrive and the new life they were about to start.
With a little bit of expectation.
Of course, there were also some people who had just returned from the fortress and were walking out of the town's hotel dejectedly.
"Damn it, if I had known earlier I wouldn't have kept that bottle of medicine..."
"What's the use? You'll probably die if you drink it."
"Can you at least fight to death for one of them?"
"Hey, what's the point of drinking medicine... When you look at other people's League Cup games, how can anyone drink medicine in front of them? If you fight against those Imperial people, you must kill them openly!"
"Come on, you want to be upright, but others don't want to be upright yet. The way Fars Fortress looks like now..."
"Sigh... I was stupid at first and let them sneak in so easily."
"There is no soldier in the principality who is not stupid. The only one who has some backbone is still heroic. Look at that general, he is still huddled in the infirmary..."
"Shh."
People were walking in a hurry, constantly coming in and out of the town's streets. On the endless plain, people walking on Tallon Avenue West almost formed a straight line, with horse-drawn carriages carrying goods mixed in in the middle, heading towards their respective destinations.
The player kept moving in the same direction. The player who had hurriedly stopped the opponent looked back and forth a few times, then patted him on the shoulder: "Goodbye."
"What are you afraid of? What is there to be afraid of?"
"Who is scared?" The man scratched his head, and then whispered: "Isn't this... just talking about the matter? This is a special period, and people are also injured, so don't talk about him behind his back."
"...Doesn't the principality still have any laws?"
"No." After the straightforward reply, a fierce smile appeared on the man's face: "So what, if they don't go, we will go by ourselves! Even if we lose this number... we can't let those in the empire
The guy is doing better!"
"Good! Count me in when the time comes. Sooner or later, I will have to settle this debt together..."
"But...we probably can't kill many Imperial soldiers just by relying on stragglers like us."
"Where is Duan Feng Lei? Where is Grayson? Where have they gone?"
"Of course I'm participating in the competition. You don't have to ask about this kind of thing..."
"Hey, everyone was very active when they were fighting for territory, but when it came time to fight... Huh?"
The person who spoke suddenly closed his mouth, and his eyes stopped somewhere on the road - several figures dressed as adventurers appeared at the end of the person's line of sight, and they were also walking towards this side.
In the process, I looked around back and forth.
"What's wrong?"
"Look at those people..." The man's tone became hesitant: "Are they Fang Zhou and the others?"
"..."
The eyes of the two people turned around a few times at the people walking in the distance at the same time. The person who spoke before said with some disbelief: "Is it really them? Damn it...how did they get in?"
"With the way the fortress is now, how can it possibly control players sneaking in..." His face became extremely gloomy, and the abnormal player touched the hilt of his sword at his waist, and then winked at his companions: "Yes."
don't want……"
"No rush, let's take a look first."
The two of them turned a corner on the road, and when the targets they were eyeing were about to approach, they suddenly turned into the grass on the side of the road, pretending to go to the toilet, and hid under the row of street lamps.
Behind a certain stone pillar. They waited quietly for a while, and then disappeared silently into the crowd again, but this time, their direction of travel became the direction towards the town.
In front of the two of them, several players of different shapes looked around and looked at the nearby scenery, as if they were playing in the countryside.
"Do you have……"
"Do you want to go ahead..."
"hold on……"
The casual conversation reached the ears of the two people. Their brows frowned more and more, and they gradually took out the weapons in their hands. At a certain moment, the few people in front speeded up their pace as if nothing had happened, and then in unison
He moved close to a loaded carriage and secretly surrounded the slowly moving carriage.
"...Two, one, do it!"
"What do you want to do-"
"Kill them all!"
"They are Imperial dogs! Stop them!"
"Don't worry about those two idiots, hurry up... ah!"
Sensing the opponent's secret movements, the two players following behind picked up their weapons without hesitation and rushed towards the group of people who suddenly started to attack the carriage. The battle broke out on the road in an instant, and swords were exchanged.
The sound of hitting and yelling among each other also quickly sounded, but after a moment, these sounds stopped abruptly with a sudden scream - the two people who were the first to jump on the carriage chopped down the people sitting on the carriage with a knife.
A passenger at the door of the carriage then raised the curtain and rushed in. However, within two seconds, they flew out with the sound of being hit by fists.
That's right, they all flew out.
The huge force hit them directly on the chest through the armor, and then blasted their bodies away like cannonballs, falling far away on the road. The edges of the smashed carriage turned into scattered pieces.
The sawdust shot towards the figures of other players outside the car. Before they could recover from the action of holding their heads to cover, a hard wind of fists flew from the inside to the outside, flying away the dust and grass all over the sky.
He rushed over after the silhouettes of the two men who had just rowed away.
boom--
"this……"
"too weak."
Amid the sluggishness of the besiegers, a deep voice came from the depths of the carriage, and then it became clear as the figure appeared, and finally stood in front of everyone. Under the short black hair, a pair of full breasts
Vicissitudes' eyes were half-squinted as he glanced around at everyone around the carriage. His fists collided with each other on his chest, but his slightly bearded mouth gradually turned up, revealing a mocking expression.
smile.
However, this was not the reason why he attracted everyone's attention - a scar appeared above the right eye of the face, and then extended diagonally to the bottom of the other side.
"...Breaking Wind Thunder!"
Amidst the screams of the onlookers who were attracted by the sudden incident, a slowly read name sounded in the mouths of the two people who initially caught up.
****************************
"So how did you deal with him?"
In Tania's Adventurer Association, Duan Qing, who was sitting in the room, picked up a document on the table idly and said helplessly: "You and them, we can get these things, but... the price will increase.
, I have also been to Kandola Canyon. The earth elements there are now piled up. It is said that there is a lord-level monster that you can't deal with... Even if the people from the world go there... let us compensate.
You can just save a few lives, the key is the stuff... we have to make sure we get it."
"well……"
After a long time, Duan Qing, who finally waved away the sullen player, sighed helplessly, and then put down all the papers in his hand: "How could you come up with such a move and inherit other people's moves?
The task... we can’t even do it ourselves, right?”
"Captain...this way you can receive more high-quality tasks and get higher rewards."
"You can still make more money...right?"
"Yes." Dunyu Ninglan, who was standing behind him, smiled and nodded: "Captain... This is better than staying idle in the association."
"The problem is...she doesn't care about these things!" Looking at the pile of documents in front of him, Duan Qing rubbed his forehead painfully: "And why do you dare to accept everything? These tasks, these goals...how could they?
Do you believe me?"
"Some time ago, Ninglan and Sister Liushang have helped some adventure groups, so... they have left some good reputations." The maid tilted her head cutely: "Master, a good beginning is success.
Half of it, good reputation is the beginning of success..."
"Stop, stop, stop!" Duan Qing quickly made an interrupting gesture, and then quickly found a few pages from the table: "Then please tell me, this, this, and this...these...
Which immortal sent these messy tasks for people to find things? They couldn't handle them themselves. "Hmm... these seem to be Xiao Hongchen's next." The maid checked briefly and then arranged them again.
Smile: "He heard that those people had many trivial tasks that they couldn't finish, so he took them all on."
"So is this a garbage recycling station?" Duan Qing slapped the table and shouted: "I want to cancel Xiao Hongchen's right to take over the task! Let him stay here honestly!"
"Sorry, sir." The maid bowed slightly, and then said: "According to your contribution in the team, your status currently... seems to be the lowest, so according to the rules set by the team leader..."
"ok, ok, I got it."
Covering his face deeply, Duan Qing's dull voice revealed a sad feeling: "This is also the reason why I am sitting here..."
After a seemingly endless time, last night's game was finally over. Duan Qing, who was still unfinished, sent Xue Ling Huan Bing, who could no longer hold on but was still energetic, off the line, and then in the dark night illuminated by fire.
I walked out of the door, and then... I saw the figure of the maid who had been waiting not far away.
"The leader... seems to be very angry." These were her original words at the time.
As for the phenomenon of being breathable for one night, it is difficult for even an expert to explain it clearly, let alone a woman who is guarding here and has discovered his own woman early. According to Duan Qing's explanation
Her understanding of what happened just now has probably been conveyed to that guy Mengzhu a long time ago. The girl who has disappeared has not said anything about the matter itself. She is not even in the friend list
They left only a few words, but after re-launching, they announced a lot of new team policies, and assigned Duan Qing, who was named the "worst team member" because of his lowest contribution, to the extremely boring position of taking over the task.
"This is your punishment for not participating in activities well!" the girl said.
"God damn it, watching the game is considered an activity!"
After reading a few useless pages randomly, Duan Qing spread his body on the table in front of him: "I also made a lot of commissions when I first came to Tanya! Why are those not included?
On the contrary, the games during this period... each one has a higher contribution value than the last!"
In the smile of the maid behind, Duan Qing, who seemed to be complaining, waved the paper in his hand: "What about participation points, ending points, and game points! We are not playing a game, so what does it matter if we watch a few games?
The most annoying thing is that there are betting points... Oh my god, this is clearly encouraging members to throw money away, okay?"
"The leader is such a person, Mr. Qingshan... you also know it." He couldn't help covering the corners of his mouth, and continued in a coded voice: "If you want to adapt to the life of the adventure group, you should adapt to the temperament of the leader.
, this is what my husband liked in his early days."
"...You should also remember this." Duan Qing, who was lying on the table, was silent for a long time, and finally sighed.
"A few years ago, wouldn't there have been more strange rules like this?" The maid said with a smile: "Instead of complaining about these, it would be better to complete a few more tasks, and then...try your best to change your image in the head's mind.
Bar."
"This shouldn't be a problem for Mr. Qingshan." She clenched her fists and moved them playfully in front of her chest to cheer him up.
"Completing the mission is easy..." Helplessly flipping through the pages in his hand, Duan Qing searched again among the messages left by the players: "But it is difficult to change the image...
…Huh?"
His hand stopped somewhere, and then slowly raised a piece of paper with a very different style from those commissioned pages: "This is..."
"This is what Xiao Hongchen brought back before."
Glancing at the thing in Duan Qing's hand, Anyu Ninglan smiled again, but along with it, her eyes gradually became sharp: "It's something someone else gave him..."
That piece of paper said something like this.
"Going to the green mountains."
"Today a carriage will return to the city. I hope you will meet it secretly at the west gate."
"Pay as you please."
"Broken Wind and Thunder." (To be continued.)
