"...Uncle, is he okay?"
Muffled thunder like an approaching plane was wrapped in thick black smoke, leaving a red mark in the sky that seemed to split the sky. Mengzhu, who was located in the south of the Fenghua Plain and looked up at the sky, also stopped escorting the convoy.
Footsteps: "With such a big movement, there must be some kind of war happening over there..."
"This is what sir wants to achieve." Ningyu Ninglan, who was also looking up at the sky, replied in a low voice: "The bigger their movements are, the more hope the convoy here will have to escape..."
"But isn't this movement too big?" Xiao Hongchen, who was dragging one of the carts not far away, panted and stopped: "You can see those magic effects from such a distance... No
People who knew the inside story thought a century war had broken out here."
"It's okay, they'll be fine."
Holding his red lotus staff, the red-haired Thousand-Fingered Crane looked far away in the direction where the flames flew away. His originally nervous look disappeared as the energy he sensed disappeared.
And gradually relaxed: "It seems...it seems like someone saved them and they are now out of the battlefield, so...ah!"
She suddenly turned her head and looked beyond the sight of the convoy to a certain place in the snowfield. A figure that had just flashed there then appeared at the end of everyone's field of vision, and then turned into a white light and disappeared. The person at the front was using force
Val, the blacksmith who was pushing the carriage, seemed completely unaware of the meaning of the disappearing white light. The same was true for several old village chiefs and others sitting on the carriage. However, the players who also saw this scene were suddenly shocked.
He put on a warning posture to challenge: "That was just now..."
"Did someone go offline?"
"Someone is watching us? Who is it?"
"They are probably the only guilds that can put their eyes on this place."
Several players from the Fool Adventure Group looked at each other for a few times, and then invariably accelerated their progress. On the white horizon deep in the Fenghua Plain, a few sparse figures also moved quickly in the direction of the convoy.
Coming closer, everyone, including Mengzhu, immediately grabbed their weapons. Qian Zhihe, who was sitting on the carriage, also stood up with a solemn expression, and approached the group of players behind the convoy along the diagonal line.
The voice of a player who looked like a captain echoed in everyone's ears: "...Stop!"
"Get 'em!"
The increasingly distant shouts then passed through the endless wind and snow, spreading further into the snowfield. However, Dong Xia Yanliang, who was responsible for this reinforcement operation, slowly stopped his steps and stood in the area where the outbreak had just occurred.
In the snow next to the powerful ice and snow power: "What did they find?"
"Report to the captain, it seems to be a migrating convoy." A player from behind immediately stepped forward and replied: "The fixed sentry discovered the presence of the player, so he hurriedly logged off to avoid it."
“…did they have anything to do with the reaction of the Restorationists?”
"This... we don't know yet, but Captain Jin has already caught up, and the results should come out soon..."
"……never mind."
After frowning and thinking for a while, the magician player standing in the wind and snow sighed and waved his hands. Then, in the surprised eyes of his subordinates, he turned to look at the area surrounded by giant icicles that had not yet dispersed.
Direction: "Such a big scene, such strong magic fluctuations... Members of the Magic Empire Council really live up to their reputation."
"Yes, captain, we are on the right team." Another player standing next to him echoed and replied: "The president and his team's decision is indeed wise and powerful. If things go well... we might really be able to succeed in the game.
Dominate the free world!"
"It's too early to claim kingship, and the enemy of the Magic Empire is the entire world." The magician named Dongxia Yanliang shook his head lightly: "Although the power they are showing now is powerful enough, it is not enough to deal with it.
Those known perverts... there may still be some gaps."
"It doesn't matter, we still have our Wings of Freedom supporting them." The player who reported the previous report smiled and replied: "In previous games, this kind of enemy that required the strength of the whole country to fight was often the result of players rising up to resist.
target, but who would have thought... that one day we would join them?"
"...Don't underestimate the rest of the world."
Pointing towards the track that had not dissipated in the sky, Dongxia Yanliang shook his head slightly: "Just fighting against the alliance between Jianghu and other guilds is enough for our Wings of Freedom to drink a pot, let alone these
The guys who have been hiding in the darkness for a long time already have many enemies. The attack just now... obviously another master joined the battle. Otherwise, with Teresa's temperament, she would not take any of them
How can we give up when all our enemies are frozen into ice sculptures?"
"What's more, she used the power of the magic circle, which also shows the strength of the enemy." In the cold wind that kept blowing, Dongxia Yanliang slightly tightened the collar around his neck: "If it weren't for the Magic Empire,
A teleportation circle has also been set up at this stronghold... The final result of this battle will probably not be what we see now."
"Yes, is it that serious?" The boy next to him laughed dryly for a while: "Don't scare us, captain..."
"Convina is in the Free City. Doesn't this explain the problem enough?"
After looking around at the surrounding team members, Dong Xia Yanliang's voice gradually became serious: "The future of Wings of Freedom is far from being as smooth as it seems. At least the direction of Freedom City is a big problem. What we can currently do,
It's just that the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will come to cover it up. The biggest threat at hand is the combined army from the principality and the empire, so the president and the others will always be stationed on the northeastern front. Once Fenghua Town is lost, Little Andachel Mountain will be destroyed.
It will be the final battlefield..."
"But I've always heard that... there are no problems in Fenghua Town." The player next to him asked with a puzzled look on his face: "I heard that the president and the others still want to take advantage of..."
"Everything is unknown." As if she didn't want to mention this topic, Dong Xia Yanliang interrupted the other party calmly: "Since we have come to this step, of course we must make every preparation. When we come here, isn't it?
To confirm that there is no danger in the south? Now that the battle is over, we can go back to deliver the mission."
"Concentrate on completing that plan."
He raised his head and looked at the red trail of black smoke that was gradually dissipating. After a while, he withdrew his gaze, turned around and walked towards the way he came from: "Others..."
"We don't have time to take care of it."
*********************************
"I didn't expect you to come."
Some time later, in the west of Fenghua Plain, in another mountain range on the edge of Fenghua Plain, Duan Qing, who was sitting on the top of the mountain, resisted the wind and snow all over the mountain while looking at the man who brought them here in one breath.
Woman: "You...why are you here?"
"...Sister-sama entrusted me here."
Still holding the staff like a dead branch in her hand, Freya, standing on the top of the mountain, replied lightly. After a while, she withdrew her gaze and turned around to answer Duan Qing's question: "To the Restorationist
The attack will begin soon, and the Mage Council must also be fully prepared. I and several other council members came to this Hulan Mountain a few days ago..."
"Where...are you going to attack first?"
Before she could finish speaking, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was also kneeling on the other side, suddenly asked: "Is this Fenghua Town?"
"……no."
Looking into the other person's eyes, Freya replied in a calm voice: "What's wrong? What's the problem?"
"Uh...she was a little injured just now, so she's not in a good mood, hahaha..."
Rubbing his temples with a headache, Duan Qing smiled dryly and answered Freya's question for the silent Xue Ling Huan Bing, then scratched his cheek and decided to cover up the topic: "By the way... you
How could you save us? How did you know we were there?"
"That frost formation was placed there by Teresa a long time ago."
Turning calmly in the direction of Duan Qing, Freya's answer seemed to be telling an ordinary story: "Since the Restorationists came to the surface, those rebellious magicians who were still hiding have gradually come out of their own way.
Lair, they are now sent to various places in the mountain range by the so-called Magic Council, each stationed in every direction of their own territory. Teresa is just one of these magicians. She is good at the same as her sister.
Ice magic, and because of defense, she buried a huge frost magic circle under the snowfield..."
"The name of the formation is Cribus Ai, a kind of magic spread in ancient times of magic."
She outlined the wind and snow in front of her with her hands, as if she was outlining the huge frost pillars that appeared in front of Duan Qing before: "Once the magic circle takes effect, everything inside will return to the ancient world full of frost.
"
"I heard her yelling 'Frost Era' so powerfully...it turns out that it was arranged long ago." Duan Qing then showed a disdainful expression: "I thought she was that powerful in her own right."
"The power obtained by using the magic circle is still powerful, and this cannot be changed." Freya slowly shook her head: "Even my sister and I dare not face that magic circle easily.
Power, not to mention you adventurers..."
"Thank you again for your rescue." So Duan Qing saluted the woman covered in red again: "If it weren't for your meteor, we might all be dead now."
"If I hadn't sensed the effectiveness of that magic circle, I wouldn't have rushed there easily." Freya waved her hand lightly: "They should have noticed our arrival now... everything is fate.
What a choice.”
"Uh... I'm very sorry if it affects your battle plan." Duan Qing hurriedly replied: "Do you need us to compensate you for anything?"
"Your strength has grown a lot in the past period of time."
The dull eyes that were completely inconsistent with the magic used patrolled the two people for several times. Freya still replied calmly: "But compared with the enemies we are about to face, your strength is still not enough..."
"Ah hahaha, of course it's not enough compared to you." Duan Qing hurriedly laughed twice: "But as adventurers, there must be things we can do here, right?"
"Well..." The red-haired woman holding the staff was silent for a while, then looked up at Duan Qing's face: "In that case... then you all go and help Tres."
"...Tres?"
"Tres Fao."
Pointing to a certain direction below the top of the mountain, Freya's voice became wavering in the wind and snow: "He is currently responsible for handling the liaison in the Xifeng County area and the recovery of various villages around Hulan Mountain.
, with your help, this work should become easier..."
"This, this is easy to handle." Duan Qing replied eagerly: "You can't deal with those big fish, but you can still deal with these small fish and shrimps! Not to mention the surrounding areas of Hulan Mountain, even Xifeng Town...etc.
Wait, Hulan Mountain?"
With his eyes widened, he hurriedly opened his adventurer map: "We are now in Hulan Mountain? The junction of Xifeng County and Anderson Independent State?"
"……Any questions?"
"How long have you been flying with us!"
Looking at Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was also astonished next to him, Duan Qing jumped up from where he was: "This is the westernmost point of Xifeng County! Have we crossed the entire Fenghua Plain?"
"...If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
As if she didn't bother to answer this non-question, the red-haired Freya turned around and walked down the snow-capped mountains: "Tres should be near the village of Dadel, just to the east of the mountains. As long as you follow the
If you walk down here, you should be able to..."
"Wait a moment."
Still showing the hesitant expression, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was kneeling next to Duan Qing, once again called out to Freya who was about to leave just now. However, facing Huo, one of the seven-person council, she
She was a Grand Mage. She pursed her lips and said something after a while: "If you want to attack Fenghua Town... please be careful."
"……OK."
Still with that plain expression, Freya nodded slightly in response, and then gradually disappeared into the snow and wind under the gaze of the two people. The severe cold around them finally broke the gap between the two.
There was silence, and the figures in action also gathered on the east side of the mountain. Duan Qing, who was silent for a while, finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked the question that should be answered aloud: "Restoration
What is the author’s plan?”
"...They want to level Fenghua Town."
Making final preparations before departure, Xue Ling Huan Bing replied in a low voice.
