Since entering the free world, Duan Qing has never had the idea of establishing a guild and regaining hegemony in the world, even after experiencing a series of jaw-dropping events and even saving Tania's fate. In his opinion, this is the case.
In the past, the path of pulling together a team of hundreds or even thousands of people, seizing resources and territory, and then dominating the game world was already an ancient past event that was far away from him, whether it was as a past visitor who had a painful experience, or as a
As a powerless ordinary player, he doesn't want to go down this road again. The targeting actions launched by Jianghu and the Sword of Justice a few days ago may not have been without such considerations. Now that I think about it... although those
History is like a dream in the past to us, but their and other guilds' worries are not unreasonable.
The few words Duan Fenglei came over to me may not have been probing, but... hum, it seems you still don't know enough about me.
Recalling the previous scene when the old scarred face disappeared from the crowd at the city gate, Duan Qing shook his head helplessly, then threw down the pile of resumes that he hardly looked at again, slapped his buttocks and stood up.
The argument between Xiao Hongchen and Qian Zhihe was still ringing out, mixed with the girl's shouts and dances. He slowly raised the corners of his mouth and silently walked towards the swaying golden man.
Beside the ponytail: "...Don't argue! The flower pot is placed there, and the place where you two will be in the future is not in the house, so what's the use of fighting over this thing... Hey, why are you here?"
"Since we really want to regard this place as our home in the future, it is normal for everyone to express their opinions." Duan Qing spread his hands and said with a smile: "Everyone is satisfied, and there will be no need to make any objections in the future..."
"Well, it's the same... Then let them quarrel for a while longer."
The girl held her chin and raised her head, then turned around and looked at Duan Qing's face: "Have you finished reading it all?"
"Well, I've finished reading."
"Didn't you like any of them?"
"...They are all shrimp soldiers and crab generals."
"……forget about it."
Shaking the ponytail on the back of his head, Mengzhu glanced at the other person's face for a while, and finally curled his lips and turned around as if nothing had happened: "When it gets up tomorrow, I will go and get rid of all these things.
Go back, then talk to Ferriston, and set up the recruitment area for the adventure group..."
In the end, I still had such a group leader...
Sighing, he retreated to the corner. Duan Qing exchanged glances with the smiling Xu Yu Liushang. The latter crossed his arms and walked towards the corner. It seemed that he had no intention of continuing to communicate with him on this topic. He thought about everything that had happened before.
With all the information he saw at a glance, Duan Qing finally gave up the idea of "gold mining in the sea", and then when a maid handed over the tea with a smile, she asked a question in a low voice: "
Ninglan, you...should know the whereabouts of Jian Beidong, right?"
"...Mr. Jian Beidong contacted us a few days ago. He encountered a difficult teacher and is currently trying to accompany him." Ningyu Ninglan replied with a smile: "That teacher is also in Tania.
I don’t know if my intention to come and witness the fall was put into action later..."
"...In other words, that guy may have been to Tania?" Duan Qing asked: "Just two days ago?"
"Yes, sir." The woman holding the wooden plate put her finger to her mouth and thought for a while, then nodded slightly: "If the news is not wrong... he should have been here that day."
"...This script seems familiar." Then Duan Qing sighed: "When we were in Fenghua Town, he passed by like this..."
"If it weren't for Mr. Jian Beidong, Ninglan wouldn't be able to see you." The maid suddenly smiled even brighter: "So... Ninglan and Sister Liushang are very grateful to him."
"I know, I know." Duan Qing closed his eyes and waved his hand: "Since you are so concerned about me...when you have the chance, remember to tell him something."
His eyes narrowed slightly: "Our adventure group is short of people, you..."
"Do you want to come?"
*************************
The Fool Adventure Group finally recruited two people, but that happened a few days later, because after the storm gradually spread, two familiar faces came to the door through certain channels, and stood in front of them one after another.
In front of Duan Qing.
One of them is Xiao Hongchen’s good brother Xianyu Wang.
"According to the theory, you are also the founder of our group. Later, you were cut off just because there were enough people."
Looking at the player in front of him with tattered equipment but still calm posture, Duan Qing pressed his finger on the bridge of his nose for a while: "So we have no reason to reject you, but..."
"Can I ask?" He looked into the eyes of the Salted Fish King: "Why are you coming back?"
"It's very simple." The Salted Fish King pointed at Xiao Hongchen, who was smiling stupidly at the side: "He asked me to come, so I came."
"..."
"Well, I am indeed just a person in name only. Even if you agree to my joining now, I will still say this."
Bowing as he did when they first met, the Salted Fish King replied politely: "I am very satisfied with my current way of living. After all, it seems... the Shadow Society is a place that is more suitable for my performance. They
The prospects seem to be very good, so..."
"You don't have the idea of giving up your job there yet, do you?" Duan Qing, who was sitting behind the desk, clasped his hands: "It's a very practical idea. I can understand your position."
"Xiao Hongchen seems to be doing well in your place."
Giving a reassuring look to the shirtless man winking at the back, the Salted Fish King turned around with a smile: "With the results you have achieved now... you will definitely be able to prosper in the future. Since my brother is here again,
Since you invited me, of course I want to come over and take a look, at least..."
"It can be regarded as leaving a way out for yourself."
He shook his versatile sleeves and covered his face: "Isn't it?"
"……certainly."
Duan Qing looked at the other party and nodded: "Even if we don't consider the strength behind you, and only consider the contribution you have made to the adventure group, we have no reason to reject you. If you hang out with Wiesel in the future, and finally make a name for yourself
A different world...maybe a great help to our adventure group."
"So I should... we have a good time working together?"
"Yes, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Under Xiao Hongchen's relaxed gaze, the man shook hands with Duan Qing, who also stood up, and then said goodbye to each other after a few routine dialogues, and walked to the far side of the street with the cheerful shirtless man. He sat at the door again.
Duan Qing, who was sitting at the table, was lost in thought for a while, seeming to be considering this person's true intentions hidden under the surface. Finally, he breathed out a sigh of relief and turned his attention to the other person who had been waiting for a long time: "
So...what about you? Will the ladder let you down?"
"...I've already been through it with him."
The evil young man from Jiecheng, who was covered with bandages all over his body, shook his head, but a smile appeared on his slightly pale face: "You can be regarded as former comrades, and you are familiar with each other, so he is nothing, that's all
The boss agreed."
"...Hey, he will definitely let me treat him to a drink later."
After uttering such words in a low voice, Duan Qing waved his hands to drive the worries out of his mind. Then, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face, his voice involuntarily softened a little: "Listen to this battle...
You are still working as hard as ever."
"..."
"It's okay, we were just chatting casually...Why did you suddenly think of coming to see me?"
"...The debt with Captain Ladder has almost been settled. The future of the principality will gradually become stable. Places like battlefield dungeons...will probably become rare in the future."
The young man thought for a while, and his voice continued intermittently: "Many teams that have been involved in battlefield dungeons are now considering their future paths. Some plan to change careers to become adventure groups, and some plan to take advantage of the traffic.
Some people plan to travel around the world, and some plan to start a wild group and continue working on the battlefield... Captain Ladder seems to have this plan, and his popularity and reputation are pretty good, so..."
"So you've made up your mind?" Duan Qing said with a smile, "You've made up your mind and come to us?"
"...Okay, the above is all my opinion."
Looking at Duan Qing's smiling face, the evil young man from Jie City suddenly started laughing: "Well... I just wanted to..."
"Can you give me another chance?" He whispered: "A chance for me to fight side by side with you?"
"Don't be so great, young man." Duan Qing smiled and shook his head: "To play together is to play together, how can you be so exaggerated... But when I just met you, you were so exaggerated, and ended up dead
After that, I didn’t even wait, and ran away alone..."
"Hehe, hehe..."
"Since we can still see each other, it means that we are still very destined." Duan Qing patted the other party's shoulder, and then pointed to the door behind him: "Go, Mengzhu is still inside, you should be more careful
We haven’t seen each other for a long time, so she should be even more surprised..."
"I...you, you agreed?"
"It doesn't matter if I agree, I'm just a doorman."
Duan Qing sat down at the front of the table again: "Wait until that girl dies, then you will truly join our adventure group. After all, she is the leader... Well, if I guessed correctly, there may be others.
The last test is waiting for you."
"Test, test?"
"Don't be nervous, it's very simple."
Duan Qing held up his chin and blinked at the evil young man from Jie City: "There is also a person named Qian Zhihe inside... She is the most familiar with that process."
After sending this person into the station, Duan Qing sighed and turned his head, and then let out his rising yawns into the crowded streets in front of him - since he rejected a large number of players
After applying for membership, the number of "perseverant" players who came here again has dropped sharply. Many players even used the method of "the Fool's Adventure Group takes credit for themselves" and vented the anger of not getting a chance in this unique way.
Come out. Such a method has naturally received only a small number of support, but it has also greatly reduced the enthusiasm of the players who came here to apply for jobs. In the past few days, the players who often came to Duan Qing to beg for admission, but were rejected one after another in the end, have also become more and more popular.
He appeared in front of him less and less frequently. The day of internal rectification had come, and the table with the signboard "Temporary Reception for the Fool's Adventure Group" was already deserted. This hot news that had spread throughout the game came to Duan Qing.
There were only a few acquaintances left who often appeared in front of him, as well as the rolls of eyes of various colors and meanings from passers-by.
What's more, there is heavy news of a coalition of principality players led by Jiang Hu, launching a massive counterattack.
The devastated status quo of the principality is not a reason for players to stay away. They don't even have time to study the various changes brought about by the new version, so they return the shame brought by the empire to the destruction of their own side as quickly as possible.
Above them, the vast Talon Plain was in flames of war for a while. With the full exertion of the Duan family brothers and other masters, they won successive battles until they reached the gate of the Fars Fortress that once belonged to them.
The clarion call for counterattack was temporarily stopped. Thanks to this wave, the number of players who came to the plain front line to support the counterattack also increased unknowingly. Compared with the gradual rise of the principality, the empire players who did not have the support of the emperor
They could only fight and retreat, and finally relied on the defense of the fortress to retreat.
Ever since Bernard led his troops to withdraw from Tania, the empire's official troops no longer seem to have the intention to fight, as if they have completely lost the confidence to fight under the vast sea of endless players.
"Actually, it's because they have a big problem behind them."
"……what is the problem?"
"Felong County, Zalaha City, there have been several major rebellions and turmoil there. Later, Bernard led his army to attack the fortress, and there was no local commander in charge, so the situation became even worse."
The dim sunlight shone slantingly in front of the door where Duan Qing was, making the shadows of him and the wooden table in front of him longer and longer. The scene of entering the dark night again seemed to pull everyone's spirits away.
He fell asleep. However, Duan Qing had no such thoughts at this time. He did not even feel half-drowsy, because the visitor sitting in front of him at this time was someone he had never expected.
Woman: "Felong County is not the territory of the empire in the first place. I know this truth, but..."
"Why are you here?"
"...I'm here for a pilgrimage, can't I?"
Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was wearing a black cloak, smiled playfully and put his hands on the wooden table in front of him: "See what the finals venue I have fought in looks like. By the way... come too.
Take a look at you."
"This time? This place?" Duan Qing spread his hands helplessly: "Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by those crazy war sticks?"
"The war maniacs have already gone to the fortress."
The woman chuckled and waved her hand, pointing to the flaming cloud-like horizon in the west: "I believe..."
"The people who stay here are all peace-loving people, right?"
