"It's the Thousand-fingered Crane!"
"We are divided!"
"Guren's magicians... teams two and three, come together! Get rid of that guy first!"
"yes!"
In the middle of the battlefield, which became even more chaotic due to the reappearance of the huge fire wall, the Red Lotus Pillar from the red-haired girl gradually evolved into the center of the crossfire. More and more players who felt threatened began to put down the tasks at hand and join forces.
Converging towards the direction of Qian Zhihe, the silhouette of Enyu Ninglan who had been protecting her began to flash back and forth more and more frequently, and the interception movements became more obvious. Looking at this
However, Qian Zhihe, who was watching, could see the fatigue that the shadow killer was gradually showing, and the staff he was holding tightly in front of him began to tremble: "What should I do, what should I do..."
"So I told you not to come over...drink!"
A loud shout then appeared in front of the red-haired girl. It was the sound Duan Qing made when he jumped high from the crowd of players on the other side: "A bunch of trash! Give me a hammer!"
"Hey, uncle!"
"You guys hold back for a while, and I'll send the things out first!"
The heavy stone hammer fell hard on the ground near the slope of the mountain road, lifting up a large piece of bluestone bricks mixed with earth magic energy. The group of wailing players who were knocked to the ground by countless fragments then flashed across Duan Qing's sky.
The figure sprinted towards the bottom of the mountain road on the other side of the corner: "As long as we hand this thing over to the Mages Council, we will win this battle!"
"...Stop him, don't let him run away!" After hearing these words, the captain who led the team to intercept was forced to retreat to the side street and stared closely at a certain person in Duan Qing's arms.
Something that looks like a ball: "He...he may be the culprit of this explosion! Hurry!"
"Which song is this sung from?"
Some were dumbfounded as they looked at the large group of people who were chasing forward. Xiao Hongchen, who was left alone, opened his mouth. After a while, when the evil young man from Jie City approached, he stopped his steps to continue chasing:
"Is hatred so stable?"
"Something must have happened to that top of the mountain."
Rarely, he did not refute the other party's words. The evil young man from Jie City turned his gloomy gaze to the top of the mountain in the distance: "Something happened... that we cannot imagine."
"You mean...brother took something from them?" Xiao Hongchen's voice immediately rose a few degrees: "No, no, we have to catch up quickly..."
"Stop chasing, we can't help you much anyway." Shaking his head, the evil young man from Jie City turned to point in another direction beside him: "Besides..."
"Moshang Qingshan did this, I'm afraid he also had his considerations in mind."
Following the direction pointed by the evil young man from Jie City, Xiao Hongchen turned her head and looked towards the roof on the other side of the road. The figure belonging to Qianzhihe was still standing motionless at that place, as if she was attracted by some scene that suddenly appeared in front of her.
Attracted, in the sight of countless players jumping down from the cliff in the distance while shouting, a swordsman in black with a whip sword then passed through the shackles of the wall of fire, and then with his whole body burning with unquenched fire.
With a gesture of flame, he came to the other members of the Fool's Adventure Group: "Sure enough... you are together now, right?"
"No, no."
As if trying to deny something, Qian Zhihe, who had been stunned for a long time, waved his hands vigorously: "I, we are not what you imagined! We just... uh... a lot of things happened, and in the end
It’s turned into what it is now… Anyway, you misunderstood!”
"You shouldn't explain this to me, it will make it appear that there is some hidden relationship between us."
Ignoring the pain caused by the flames on his body, Qingtian patted his body slowly: "But in fact... I am just an abandoned child who was driven out by you."
"... Regarding my brother's decision, I can only express my regret." Qian Zhihe's slightly clumsy movements finally stopped because of the guilt that surfaced: "He, he may have misunderstood something, so...
…”
"He has received his due."
Interrupting the other party's words mercilessly, Qingtian's voice finally revealed a slight sternness: "And I am living very well now... Huh, this result is enough to prove how wrong his choice was.
.”
"..."
"If I hadn't seen your performance, I wouldn't have cared about his current sinking." Looking at the direction of the girl who lowered her head and said nothing, Qingtian, dragging the long sword, began to walk forward slowly.
Go: "But since today's encounter has occurred, it proves that... there is still a possibility between us."
"Prove the possibility that I am the most suitable person for you."
In an indescribable silence, the figure of the man in black passed by the house where Qian Zhihe was. His imposing aura was stronger than the extinguished flames, but it was him walking through the crowd.
A black figure emerged: "I——"
"I will beat him."
"……I do not want."
In the space where only the sound of footsteps seemed to be left, the girl who lowered her head and remained silent bit her lip gently, and then just before the figure of the black-clothed swordsman walked behind the corner and was about to disappear, he suddenly turned around and raised his own
Staff: "I won't let you go to Brother Qingshan."
"……Why?"
"Because...because..."
Qian Tian, whose footsteps stopped slightly, turned around and saw Qian Zhihe, who had become the center of attention of the players present, saying intermittently: "Because... oh! Why are there so many!"
"If I say you're not allowed to go, I'm not allowed to go!"
The blazing flames shot out from the girl whose voice suddenly became louder, and rumbled across the corner below the slope. The orange light that was enough to illuminate the entire street then connected into a strange arc in the air, faintly visible.
The ground covered Sunny's position, and Sunny, who was at the end of the arc, lowered his head slightly, seemingly not paying attention to the magic that lit up the entire mountain road until that arc.
When the burst of fire elemental energy filled the night sky above, he lowered his head slightly sadly: "Yes, yes, this is the familiar you, unreasonable, with a fiery temperament, it's a pity...
"
"I really don't know whether I should be happy or sad about this." He pointed at the panting opponent with his raised sword: "Do you only show such a nature in front of familiar people?
?”
"You, you..." Qian Zhihe, whose towering chest kept rising and falling, seemed to be burning with blazing flames: "If you say such nonsense again, I will really be merciless!"
"No, you can't do it." Qingtian shook his head slightly: "Unfortunately, I am one of the people who knows you best in the world. When your behavior becomes more vicious, you often
It’s when your heart becomes weaker..."
"you……!"
"Hey, hey."
Looking at the expression of the red-haired girl who was about to cry, Xiao Hongchen on the side finally couldn't stand it any longer: "It's too much. Why don't you come at me if you have the ability to do it? What kind of ability does it have to bully a little girl..."
"Who is bullying my apprentice?"
Qingyue's voice descended on this place like a meteor, and at the same time there was a meteor that actually descended here. The human figure wrapped in flames then gradually appeared in the air halfway up the mountain, wearing gorgeous clothes.
Freya's figure in the fiery red robe was revealed: "Is that you?"
"Old, teacher?"
Wiping away the tears on his face vigorously, Qianzhihe opened his eyes wide in surprise: "You, why are you here?"
"...Not only me, other members of the council have also arrived here."
With her face still as cold as it should be, Freya's wandering eyes finally slowly returned to Qian Zhihe: "I noticed your energy fluctuations, so I rushed over to take a look."
"I, I'm fine." So the girl hurriedly shook her head: "I don't have any hands, and they didn't bully me. By the way, these people here are my teammates and members of the Fool's Adventure Group...
…”
"Welcome, Your Excellency Freya of the Mages Council."
Before Qian Zhihe could explain everything here clearly, a figure with real ice power appeared on the top of the slope, and then spread the heart-shaking words to everyone in this area.
Corner: "Theresa of the Magic Council has been waiting here for a long time."
"...It seems that tonight's incident was indeed carefully prepared by you." Freya put down the hand that was touching Qian Zhihe's head: "What exactly do you want to do?"
"What to do? This is the question I want to ask you."
The gorgeous ice staff hit the ground hard, and Teresa's unclear figure once again heard a cold voice like frost: "And the time before in front of the valley on the south slope... Finally
You were the one who took action, right?"
"What, you want to find your lost glory?" Freya replied without giving up: "Be my opponent tonight?"
Theresa stood at the top of the mountain road and stopped talking. She seemed to be lowering her head and thinking about something. The energy representing ice and fire gradually spread in the air, and finally formed an obvious red and blue dividing line. Countless players around her saw this.
While everyone was retreating, Mengzhu, who was still staying at the side, hurriedly called the other people back to his side. While paying attention to every movement above, he carefully asked in a low voice: "... So what are your opinions?
What is it? Should we leave quickly?"
"It's more intuitive if you just say run away." The evil young man from Jiecheng curled his lips helplessly, and then pointed to the other end of the hillside: "Where is the top of the mountain? Why don't we go up and have a look?"
"What are you looking at? Big brother has gone somewhere!" Xiao Hongchen on the side replied disdainfully: "If you just leave it alone, you might do something earth-shattering again soon..."
"But, we can't leave our mentor alone." Qianzhihe's eyes kept turning on Freya, who was motionless behind him: "What if something unexpected happens..."
"Don't be so unsure of me."
The voice belonging to Freya then sounded in their ears, seeming to use this method to comfort the worried people: "I know this woman fairly well, her strength should not be as good as mine, although
In Fenghua Town, which they have occupied for a long time, her arrangements may have been left behind, but now that magic bombs have appeared... ha."
"You go ahead and find Mo Shang Qingshan." She still showed no intention of moving: "He is the one who needs more help."
"...Have you really encountered any trouble, sir?" Before the little girl next to him could speak again, Cinyu Ninglan, who had appeared in the shadows at some point, suddenly asked: "Your Excellency Freya?"
"He didn't encounter any trouble himself. What really caused trouble was the explosion itself."
A trace of solemnity appeared on Freya's face, and then turned into a meteor-like residual light as her figure suddenly disappeared from the place: "And..."
"There is indeed a little trouble around him now."
***************************
"Hoo, ho, ho, ho...ah!"
"...Did you fall? Are you injured?"
"No, it's okay...I'm fine, big brother."
"It's okay, let's... be careful!"
boom!
The airflow caused by the explosion swept past him, instantly swallowing up Duan Qing's clear vision. Relying on his feelings and experience, he then hugged a certain figure next to him, and rolled out with the dust on the ground.
Entering the scope of the explosion, the buzzing sound caused by the strong impact slowly diminished from the ears, replaced by the chaotic sound of fighting that never stopped. Duan Qing, who was no longer paying attention, then vigorously
He shook the dust on his face aside and at the same time let go of the petite body tightly held in his arms: "Although you just reported false information, you don't have to hate me so much..."
"Brother, are you okay?"
Two small hands stretched out from the mottled white cloth robe, and then followed Nina's cry and groped back and forth on Duan Qing's body: "It's all my fault... It's all Nina's fault..."
"No, no, no, no, I don't want a little guy like you to shed tears." Duan Qing, who quickly got up in the chaos of the battle, immediately replied hurriedly: "Let's run quickly, there is a large group of pursuers behind me..."
"Uh-huh……"
"Brother, I'm not that fragile. Didn't I force you out of the crowd before? If I hadn't accidentally taken an extra long detour, I wouldn't have been able to meet you hiding in the blacksmith shop.
Woolen cloth."
"Nina usually doesn't leave home at all, and later she continued to practice with Teacher Rona, so she only remembered that there was a blacksmith shop there, and then she hid in it..."
"At this time, this kind of place, not to mention the blacksmith shop, even the air-raid shelter may not be safe... By the way, why do you want to come here alone?"
"Because, because..."
In the scenes of killing that were constantly intertwined all around, two figures, one large and one small, once again turned the corner of a certain street among the gradually gathering pursuers. However, the voice belonging to Nina became louder and louder as they fled.
Fa became anxious: "Because Nina saw it..."
"Nina's teacher seems to be chased by many people now."
