Xu Yu Liushang is a pragmatic person, so the major events she talks about are not exaggerated - the restorationists have made big moves.

They occupied the southern part of the principality.

Just two days after the final battle in Tania, several villages and towns in the south of Xifeng County in the principality lost contact one after another. The villagers who escaped later claimed that many bandits occupied their homes and then drove them out.

.Since the princess of Xifeng County has brought most of the troops to the capital, and the people left behind in their respective villages and towns are basically ordinary self-defense villagers and reserve personnel, so the so-called bandits did not put in much effort to rob them.

With the attitude of not taking those people seriously at all, the mayors and garrison officers of various towns in Xifeng County did not rush to use the remaining soldiers in their hands to deal with these outlaws. They just wanted to wait for themselves

After the princesses came back, they worked together to deal with the gangs of bandits who had fled here. But not long after, a statement from the occupied areas appeared among the crowds in the major villages and towns, clarifying their identities and their

An ultimatum that hopes others will give up resistance and surrender to the Magic Empire.

Subsequently, these people under the banner of restoration captured several towns one after another and occupied a large area in the southeast of Xifeng County.

"Many places, including Fenghua Town, are now out of control."

Although it has entered autumn, the midday sun is still scorching the bodies of everyone in the free world, so Duan Qing and Xu Yuliu Shang, who were heading to the Free City, also hid on the side of Talon Avenue with the convoy that stopped to rest.

In a certain forest: "They are fully staffed and well-equipped. Other logistical supplies seem to be abundant, and the training of the soldiers is also very complete. On the other hand, among the remaining guards in Xifeng County, not only are they left with soldiers who are not suitable for the battlefield,

They are old, weak and remnant soldiers who are fighting against the empire, and they still have a contemptuous attitude, so once the two groups fight, the winner is almost determined."

"The most important thing is that they also have many skilled magicians." The voice of the woman here gradually became serious: "They are comparable to the magicians of the Mages Council."

"...The principality has not received any news, right?" Duan Qing, who was sitting next to the root of a tree, sighed: "In order to prevent the empire from attacking again, Pamir also deliberately asked the armies of the two counties to move forward...

…”

"It seems so, otherwise the guy named Kang would have been back in a hurry, and he wouldn't be still there leisurely as a background bar." Xuyu Liushang replied in a low voice: "The newbies in Green Stone Village have been closed.

, so the players from there are much less skilled, otherwise we, the people, would not have gotten the news so late..."

"This is much faster than the NPCs in the game." Duan Qing said: "Now I can only hope that they can know this earlier."

"The neutral organization's news should be transmitted faster than the official." The blue-haired swordswoman knelt on the grass and reached out to take the teacup handed over by the maid: "Especially the Mage Council... They should be standing on the principality's side now.

On the other hand, the news should reach Pamir faster."

"They are guys who are committed to fighting against the Restorationists. It's strange that they are not in a hurry."

Duan Qing took a sip of the tea in the cup: "Those guys who like to do things in secret have now jumped on the table... I guess they are the most anxious ones, right?"

"...the Restorationists grasped the timing quite well, or...they may have planned this a long time ago." Xuyu Liushang replied: "Tanya's actions are just one part of following the trend. If in the end

If you don’t succeed...then make a big noise, force the principality to ask for help from other states and counties, and then take advantage of the opportunity to start trouble..."

"That makes sense."

Duan Qing squinted his eyes and nodded: "This can explain why they hid so well and suddenly jumped out on their own in the end, but there is still something strange..."

"What's wrong?"

"The Restorers are a group of people whose mission is to restore the Magic Empire. Since they have tolerated it for so many years...why did they choose to attack at this time?" Duan Qing slowly raised his question: "Don't tell me anything.

Such nonsense as players being involved, that old thief Christo would never design a game like this..."

"Internal reasons... Is this what you want to question?" Xu Yu Liushang dragged his chin and raised his head: "Indeed, they should have some internal motives, otherwise this would not be in line with their past behavior style..."

"And this is despite having made so much preparation in advance."

Duan Qing pointed in the direction of the guide: "The troops are well prepared and there are magicians to help. No matter how you think about it, it is not a plan that can be decided in a short time. Think about the series of events that happened between the two countries before... this war

It is uncertain whether these people are the instigators, but in this case, another unexplainable question arises - since these people have so much energy, why do they go to such trouble to do it?

This series of conspiracies was launched, and in the end it was just to occupy the land in the south of the principality?"

"Their behavior is inconsistent, and their purpose...is currently unknown." Duan Qing concluded: "If possible...we'd better go over there and see with our own eyes. Maybe there will be new discoveries, and then...

Why are you looking at me like this? It's possible, but I can't go now."

"...I thought you were going to run away alone again."

Brushing her long blue hair that was blown up by the autumn wind, the woman retracted her contemptuous gaze: "You, you, always sneak into the center of the game alone, eat a lot of key information and resources alone, and then hang up.

You beat other players and somehow became the first person in the game... Are you really ruining other people's gaming experience? Are you making it difficult for us teammates, okay? For those of us who are familiar with you, forget it...

...If Mengzhu finds out, I won’t be able to scold you thousands of miles away on the excuse of being lazy!”

"I know, I know, I'll just take you with me from now on...ah, no, it's just a good game, a good game." Duan Qing, waving his hands, hurriedly expressed his stance: "Anyway, we don't have that many people now, so take me with you.

It shouldn’t be too much trouble to join the team. Once the girl has finished all the things she likes to do... can we go traveling around the world together?

"Well...that's pretty much it."

"We still have to go to the City of Freedom. After all, this is a commission from our adventure group." Looking at the other party's slightly gloomy expression, Duan Qing hurriedly changed the topic: "And...since the Restorationists have planned such a

It is impossible for them to ignore the power of Freedom City for a long time, and there may be big moves happening there now..."

"Well, this is also one of the things I'm more worried about." Xu Yu squinted his head: "Judging from Tania's previous development process, they are not only good at conspiracy, but also like to manipulate people's hearts, ranging from nobles and parliamentarians to humble people.

The refugees will eventually become their pawns. The environment in the City of Freedom... is probably more suitable for the performance of these people. Maybe when I go back this time, it will no longer be the city I am familiar with."

"Don't worry, everything will be fine." Duan Qing said comfortingly: "The worst thing is that we have to rely on ourselves."

"...Hmph, you are the only one who has this inexplicable self-confidence."

The woman glanced at the smiling face of the other party, then tilted her head: "Because of my ability, I don't care about the game world. If I don't pay attention, I will pay for it."

"...I will pay attention." Duan Qing shook his head slightly: "And..."

"I have no intention of seeing this world."

A certain melodious bell suddenly reappeared in his mind, as well as thick iron chains leading to the sky. Duan Qing, who leaned his hands behind his back, was in a trance for a moment, looking at the clear sky among the leaves——

Some warnings and reminders about the Child of Destiny were still clearly engraved in his mind, making him full of interest and awe in this mysterious and grand world. Some of the warnings Gustan gave him before leaving were still clearly there.

echoed in his ears.

"Although we call ourselves destiny weavers, we have never seen the wheel of fortune."

"Records about it..."

"Apart from her few words, she probably only appeared in some historical fragments before the Age of Magic."

Is it something older than the ancient magic empire... Also, who is she?

Come on, the first time I heard the terms Son of Destiny and Wheel of Fortune was...

The turbidity in his eyes suddenly disappeared, and Duan Qing suddenly sat up straight: "Did you just... Fenghua Town?"

"……What's wrong?"

"Fenghua Town was occupied by the Restorationists?"

"I don't know, but now...the entire area over there is under lockdown."

Looking at the situation on the other side of the convoy, the blue-haired woman replied in a low voice: "Except for the news brought by the civilians who fled at the beginning, we have no more information. The current grain-producing areas

, it has become difficult for people like players to enter them. These hostile areas are still spreading, and are now almost reaching the south of Kalon Pass and east of Hazas. The battles between those guys

, and now it is also shrinking in our direction along with this line...Why, are you worried about the food and livelihood of the principality?"

"No, but...that's all."

The familiar figures he met in Fenghua Town flashed through his mind, and Duan Qing gradually calmed down his feelings of disappointment, but the atmosphere between the three people still gradually lost its original warmth because of the silence between them.

The woman who was looking around let out a long sigh, patted the hilt of the sword at her waist a few times, then pointed in the direction of the motorcade, and suddenly whispered to Ninglan, "Ninglan, go and observe."

Watch those players...listen to what they're doing."

"...Okay, Sister Liushang."

As if sensing some kind of different aura, the maid turned her head and looked in the direction of Duan Qing, and then after getting the signal from the other party's head, she suddenly disappeared on the original grass. She kept looking at the blue-haired woman over there.

Then he lowered his head, straightened his expression, and looked at Duan Qing's beautiful face again, but he became more serious than before: "There is another important matter..."

"Xiangrui Company has made some secret moves."

Duan Qing's eyes turned cold.

"I don't know what news they got, or what new projects they have set up, but someone revealed to me... that they have re-established a game branch." The woman's voice was deeper than before, as if a person was working on it.

Businessman who sells information in the black market: "There are not many people, and they are all new faces. The team leader in charge... should be Duan Zhengxian."

Duan Qing was speechless.

"Not only the framework of the project team, but also the specific structure has been prepared, so almost as soon as it went online, the team was already running." Seeing that the other party seemed to have no intention of responding, Xu Yu Liushang had no choice but to continue: "According to me

Speculations... They probably acquired a studio, and then started working directly on the other party's platform, just incorporating their own plans and purposes."

"I have asked some people to observe the movements in various cities in the free world to see if there are any signs of collective migration of adventure groups or guilds. Except for those freelance players who are moving back and forth during the transfer period... the rest should

They are all very suspicious people."

"...Maybe they just have nothing to do and don't need to be so nervous."

"Oh, really? I have another news here. Do you want to hear it?"

The whispering voice became more solemn: "Xiangrui Group's index has dropped by % in the past period of time."

Duan Qing was speechless.

"You should understand, right? They have allocated a lot of funds to support some other projects, but on the surface... they have not given any explanation to the outside world." Xu Yu Liushang continued: "Since three years ago,

After that incident, the Duan family withdrew everything related to the virtual game industry, but now they suddenly started taking action again, coupled with a large amount of capital flow..."

"What exactly do they want to do?" She stared at Duan Qing's face: "You...should know, right?"

Duan Qing was still speechless.

"In the past three years, I have been watching every move of the Duan family. I also know the situation of the family clearly. Why do you think that girl Ninglan didn't come to the party proposed by Mengzhu? Is it not because of her current situation?

It's so embarrassing that I can't get out of the Duan family at all! Everything you did in the Duan family has been wiped out so many times. As your loyal girl... her life must be very difficult now.

"

"If the Duan family monitors her closely enough, they may not find out about you." Xu Yu Liushang warned in a low voice: "Coupled with the noise and private messages you have made during this period..."

"Maybe they've discovered you now."

"...Is this the reason why you sent Ninglan away?"

"answer me."

Under the shade of a tree, a man and a woman looked at each other: "Why do they react like this? What... do they want to do to you?"

"...Maybe he wants to collect debts from three years ago."

Duan Qing was silent for a while, and then sighed leisurely: "When we get to the City of Freedom..."

"Perhaps this matter will be clarified."
