"Congratulations... player Yu Chen - won this game!"
"As expected of a player who has been able to fight so far. His last unique skill of throwing a knife saved the situation that was about to be destroyed."
"Yes, he won the victory in a way that none of us thought of. It can be called a miraculous skill! Ordinary players may not think of such a method..."
"It makes sense. This player's on-the-spot thoughts and reactions are indeed worthy..."
"Humph! I won't watch anymore!"
In the middle of the stone seat, the angry girl yelled and turned off the screen in front of her, then stamped her foot bitterly: "Uncle! How come he won?"
"It won't be a surprise for any of the players who played today to lose. Didn't I tell you this a long time ago?" Duan Qing looked at the opponent sideways: "You have to vote over there..."
"I don't care! Anyway, I won't vote for that Yu Chen..." Mengzhu pouted, then folded his arms and turned his head to the side: "Back then, he fought with us and even chased us away...
"
"These are old things from so long ago. I almost forgot..." Duan Qing sighed: "If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have been able to remember any of this."
"I remember a few days ago, we played against them once in the competition uniform, right?" The whisper on the other side said in a low voice: "Did this guy... appear at that time?"
"Yes."
The maid behind smiled and nodded: "He did appear."
"..."
Looking at the ever-changing smiling expression of the secret language Ninglan, Duan Qing, who knew the result, nodded with some understanding, then sighed and continued to persuade: "Isn't it just two hundred and fifty gold coins? If it's gone, it's gone.
Don’t you claim that you can earn it back with just a few tasks?”
"What's wrong? It's not money anymore? And it's still on this guy..."
"I'm willing to admit defeat and earn back in the next game, so don't think too much about it... There won't be many games left, right?"
"According to the normal schedule, Yu Chen only needs to win one or two more games before he can advance to the top 32 of the UEFA Cup." Ninglan, who was behind, explained in a timely manner: "That's for the offline competition.
The quota is also the quota for the finals."
"So fast?" Duan Qing said in shock: "This...couldn't this be finished tonight?"
"In the single-slot competition, there are so few people left, and occasionally there will be multi-player competitions...it should be fast no matter how you calculate it." Xu Yu Liushang also laughed: "Don't forget, today is already the tenth
It’s our turn. Although everyone participated in the beginning, the number of participants has decreased exponentially..."
"Well……"
Holding his chin, Duan Qing looked at the tall group of screens in front of him: "If you think about it...it's true, then why do they prepare so many screens?"
"Team competition, team competition."
The girl with the golden ponytail finally got out of her depressed mood, raised a finger and said proudly: "This is probably specially prepared for the team competition that is about to start tonight! It is five against five, and there is only one screen...
How is it possible to see this?"
"...Is that so?" Duan Qing looked back.
"The league has never officially announced their schedule, so... there is no such news." The maid in the back smiled and nodded: "But... the rumors in the market, as well as the speculation of most players, are like this.
I think so..."
"There is a great possibility that we can wait until the team competition takes place tonight."
"No wonder there are so many here tonight..." Qian Zhihe on the right murmured: "There are many players I know."
"Rumors among the people, rumors among the people." Duan Qing shook his head and hummed: "I never believe in this kind of stuff..."
"Hey! You guys!"
A loud shout suddenly sounded from behind them. When several people looked back, a player leading two or three teammates had already dismissed the spectators next to them, and then stood in front of them with his hands on his waist.
In front of me: "A squirrel flew over here just now..."
"Did you throw it away?"
"puff……"
"You, what's wrong with you?"
"No, it's okay."
Duan Qing, who was hiding his face, lowered his head and at the same time motioned to his teammates next to him to get up and pick him up: "Who are you?"
"Are we? I also want to ask who you are!"
The leading man stepped on the stone chair in front of him and made a gesture of looking for trouble: "Don't you like throwing things around when you have nothing to do? Do you know that it will hit people? I'm here to teach you these things today.
What a bitch... Huh? What is there a man hiding behind? Quick! Did you do it?"
As the man yelled loudly, Duan Qing, who turned into a coward, raised his head in embarrassment: "Well, that... Brother, I didn't mean it, I just threw it away casually and didn't let you
Just pick it up..."
"You just pick me up casually? What do you think we are doing, busking under the overpass?" The man raised his knife and patted the back of the stone chair: "Come out and give our leader an apology.
Well... pay for the medical expenses! Otherwise... we will go out together and find a place to talk..."
"You dare?"
"Uncle..."
"it's okay no problem."
Comforting the girl on the side, Duan Qing's eyes wandered over the three or two players on the opposite side for a while, then he slowly stood up and walked out of the team: "You guys go on... I will solve it."
"Hey... he's actually a man." The leader looked at Duan Qing up and down, then nodded: "Let's go! Let's go... Hey, why are you here, captain?"
"Just came over to take a look, by the way..."
Behind those people, a man wearing short body armor and half armor stood there quietly: "To prevent you from getting into trouble before the game."
"How, how is it possible?" The man replied with a slight embarrassment: "We didn't mean that, we just... just wanted to ask him out for tea or something..."
"Go, go, go, go and rest in the back."
The person called the leader waved his hand casually and drove all the team members behind him. Then he cleared his throat and showed a helpless expression. At the same time, he looked at Duan who was smiling in front of him.
On Qing's body: "I'll make you laugh, I'll go to the green mountains on the road."
"Long time no see." Duan Qing stretched out his hands: "The leader of the Changfeng Group."
"Hey, how can it be so long?" Qie Tingfeng Yin also stretched out his hands and gave Duan Qing a big hug: "Since you left the fortress...it has only been a few days, right?"
"Oh, really?" Duan Qing patted the other person's back, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "Maybe there are a lot of things going on these days, so..."
"I think it will take a long time."
"Oh? Then you have to tell me about it." The short-armored man patted the other party's shoulder: "The stories of the Qingshan brothers must be very exciting..."
"Hahahaha, no, no, President Changfeng is laughing..."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
"What are they doing?"
Looking at the two laughing men patting each other, the girl behind loosened her clenched fists, and then quietly asked the blue woman next to her: "What is the situation now? Why did it suddenly..."
"This may be the so-called casual love." Xu Yu Liushang sighed helplessly: "Although we look familiar, we are not that familiar...so everything we say is superficial and perfunctory."
"It's not as ugly as yours..."
Seeing the blue woman's eyes turning around, the red girl on the side shrank her neck in fear. Finally, she mustered up the courage to raise her head: "Ting Feng Yin is also a very good person. We also fought together.
Pass……"
"……oh?"
He tilted his head and looked at the person next to him who had already sat down. He whispered with interest and then let go of his hand holding the hilt of the sword and sat back in his seat. Two doors away
On the other side of the seat, Duan Qing was already looking at the grass in the center of the arena, and made the beginning of a brief conversation: "I didn't expect... I could hit an acquaintance with just a random throw."
"This shows that there is a fate between us." He dismissed his team members with a wave of his hand, and Ting Feng Yin smiled helplessly: "But let me tell you in advance, I have no such intention towards you..."
"Ha, it seems that people who have been on the front line for a long time will have that tendency." Duan Qing chuckled: "You need a woman to resolve the issue."
"Don't bother, we are just coming back to rest this time." The other party counterattacked without giving in: "At least I don't have to worry about a bachelor like you."
"...Why are you back? Does the fortress no longer need repairs?"
"The people in the empire have no motive these days, so many players have relaxed. We can't guard against thieves for a thousand days." The man in short armor took off his weapon, and then spread his hands: "Including
Many adventure groups, including ours, have been messing around in battlefield dungeons for several months, and they should always find a chance to take a break."
"But... no matter how you look at it, this is a great opportunity for the empire." Duan Qing pinched his chin and asked, "Don't they have any intention of attacking?"
"We don't believe they don't have it, but it is indeed the case." Qie Tingfeng Yin replied: "They left a bunch of wounded soldiers and a cavalry captain. Their new weapons were also exposed, but they didn't have any follow-up.
His actions...especially General Dusk, if you tell anyone in the Principality this kind of thing, he will probably not believe it."
"Maybe he has other plans." Duan Qing said in a low voice: "Maybe the Empire players who were under pressure have discouraged the Empire from attacking..."
"There are a lot of familiar people here." Qi Tingfengyin looked around and said, "Just grab anyone and come over and ask?"
"Come on, what do they know?" Duan Qing shook his head: "The principality can know some details, and those of us who were present at the time were the only ones who were there at the time. There were no players present at all during the empire's sneak attack that day.
Their plan...mostly they don’t know about it, let alone participate in it.”
"Those big guilds must know something." Qi Tingfengyin raised his hands: "For example, Wings of Freedom or something... It's a pity that I don't know the people in their guilds."
"Probably, but... I don't know her either." After dispelling the figure of a certain woman that appeared inexplicably in his mind, Duan Qing shook his head somewhat meaninglessly: "How can people like us compete with those big forces like them?
What about the hook, right? Just mind our own business."
"...Since Brother Mo is like this..."
His eyes stayed on Duan Qing's face for a while, and Feng Yin touched his mouth and laughed: "Then I won't bother, let those who stay there be more careful."
"How many people are left there? Are you the only one who comes back to rest?"
"Those who have been there for a long time should all have plans to come back. It's just a matter of time... As far as I know, Yijiang Chunshui of the Jiangshan Group, the gang of fools in the Void, and that stupid ladder may all.
I'm coming back." Qie Tingfengyin said, looking at the red girl behind Duan Qing, with a strange smile on her face: "The girl in your team is the one under Qicai Lingguang, right?
?”
"Ah? Ah... Yes, yes, she also came back to rest, came back to rest, hahahaha..."
Scratching his head helplessly, Duan Qing had no choice but to laugh stupidly at the other party's words. However, such a reaction naturally could not be hidden from the eyes of the leader of the Changfeng Adventure Group: "Then... why is the colorful aura not there? He
Didn’t you come back?”
"Ah? Well... maybe I'm worried about the situation over there." Duan Qing replied hesitantly: "I don't know the specific situation, because when I was in Tania... I met her alone.
"
"oh--?"
Facing the other party's long and confused voice, Duan Qing tightened his fingers on his head. Knowing that he couldn't explain clearly, his eyes swayed left and right for a while, and then he hurriedly started the tried and tested task of changing the topic: "
Then, that...the team members who came over just now are...?"
"They..." Qiting Fengyin shook his head and said, "They are all people with dreams."
"Why, they are not your team members?"
"Yes, but... they signed up to participate in the competition, that's all." The short-armored man patted the weapon beside him, and then said leisurely: "The temper is also a bit impatient..."
"I see, but... participated in the competition? Wasn't your adventure group always in the fortress those days?" So Duan Qing asked hurriedly: "How did you participate in the competition? Is there such a taboo as teleportation?
The move doesn’t work…”
"There is a way, which is to come back and register in advance." Qiting Fengyin replied: "I personally have no intention of competing, and it doesn't matter whether I compete or not, but these people...seeing that the competition is approaching, they decided to advance for a period of time.
I returned to the city and signed up for the team competition, wanting to test my strength or... try my luck."
"So this is the reason why you just showed up today?" Duan Qing asked tentatively: "Today...is the team competition really going to start?"
"……right."
Looking at the crowd around him, Qing Tingfeng Yin nodded slightly: "We have received a notification from the system. Our Changfeng Adventure Group's competition... is today."
Buzz——
As his voice fell, in the center of the arena in front of countless people, several large screens that were playing the game suddenly began to tremble violently, and then slowly raised up in the sight of all the spectators present, looking toward each other.
The direction drifted to the surroundings, as if making way for the overgrown ground in the middle. Duan Qing covered his forehead and let out a deep bitter smile amid the exclamations that reached the sky.
"It seems..." he whispered: "This time the rumors... are actually true."
