"How do you feel? You've been watching it for two days..."
"Um...what's wrong..."
This is the dusk of January 6, 795 in the New Calendar, the second day of the training match. Sunset Guyan, dressed in red, and Fusheng Lingmeng, dressed in black, stood next to the large square and continued to look at it with a critical eye.
This is the last competition in the summer training camp involving several major NPC forces in Fenghua Town.
"Their fighting methods are very...simple, so..." The scholar in black turned to look at his president, and found that the other party was staring at the two opponents on the field, without blinking.
He looked at it, so he had to retract his expression that pretended to think seriously: "It's also very efficient."
"The reviews are very high." The sturdy red-robed mage rubbed his chin with one hand: "Why didn't I see that they are very powerful..."
"That is not a duel between nobles, but a method of fighting on the battlefield, my dear President." Fusheng Lingmeng said helplessly: "Fancy things are the least needed on the battlefield, so if
If we use the usual PK tactics to fight them with real swords and guns, we...will suffer a lot."
"I know, I understand..." Luo Riguoyan waved his sleeves: "That's why I don't like fighting...a bunch of reckless people."
You are the least qualified to be like this... The scholar in black lowered his head and swallowed back what he wanted to say.
"Then, these things..." Next to him, the man in red robe stretched out a finger and pointed at the battle ahead, still shouting and fighting: "They are of no use to us.
Already?"
"If you want to practice fighting on the battlefield, we have more mature routines that you can use. I can guarantee that they are definitely better than..." He also pointed forward: "They are much stronger."
"Since you are like this, there is nothing to see." The man in red robe sighed, then turned around and walked away: "We have wasted so much time..."
"No, no, no, we didn't waste time." The scholar in black said: "At least we stepped on it and explored the terrain..."
"Oh?" Luo Riguan stopped and looked back at the dog-headed military advisor of his guild with suspicious eyes: "You are not...really going to accept that thing, are you?"
"Well, I'm thinking about it..."
"You're not!" The aura of the man in red robe instantly increased. He raised his hands like cattail fans, turned around and grabbed the scholar's shoulders: "Have you been calculating too many things recently?
Burnt..."
"Maybe...hehe."
"Fuck." The man let go of his hands and looked at the scholar in front of him with a strange look, as if he was getting to know a stranger again: "I didn't see it..."
"It turns out you are also a reckless man."
"Hey, men... are more or less bloody, not to mention those of us... who have read a lot of books." Fusheng Qimeng smiled noncommittally.
"But the opponent is Jian Beidong." A trace of solemnity finally appeared on Lueyi Guyan's face: "It's the Phoenix Sword."
"So what." The scholar dusted his shoulders and smoothed out the wrinkles: "Just treat it as an ordinary opponent."
"Hey, I really...can't understand you." The man in red robe smiled: "For the layout of Fenghua Town, you allowed us to endure it for so long, but now,
But you yourself have to jump out in a big way..."
"The other party jumped over in a big way, I just chose to accept it." The scholar interrupted the other party: "And...how do you know that this is not part of my plan?"
"oh......"
Luo Riguo Yan showed a smile as if she had suddenly realized something: "Good morning, that will make me feel relieved..."
"Although I don't know what you are going to do again that will shock the world and make people cry, but I... I will agree to it for the time being." He waved his broad sleeves, then turned around again: "But I still
To emphasize that..."
"No matter what, we, Wizard, cannot let our limelight fall. If you mess up... I will take care of it with you and him."
"Hmph...haha." The scholar in black laughed bitterly. He raised his hand and was waiting for another few words when a strange sound suddenly came from the square with his back to him.
The two of them looked back at the same time, and saw that one of the teams waiting for the competition suddenly left the square, went around the exit from one side, and rushed to an unknown distance.
"What happened?" the red-robed guild leader asked, but the person he asked was not the scholar who was standing nearby, but a certain Wizard guild member who ran over from the side.
"I heard about a case in the south of the city, President." The man whispered, "The city guard went over to investigate."
"Well, it doesn't sound like it's a big deal..."
"Let's find two people to follow and inquire." The scholar immediately said: "Anyway, there is nothing to see here, so just..."
"It's time to get bored."
***************
The dusk in the free world has always been a scenery praised by players. As long as it is not rainy, the golden cloud-like twilight will fall on everything that the players can see, as if everything is covered with gold.
A layer of gold edging.
This is especially true in Fenghua Town - the fluttering tidbits in the sky turn into intoxicating golden flowers and leaves under the light of dusk. They fly past everyone with the mountain wind, making people feel like they are in a golden ocean.
Feel.
However, Duan Qing and others did not feel this way at this time.
"Uncle, this..."
"Huh..." Duan Qing, who was awakened by the girl's sad words, sighed heavily: "Let's... investigate first."
The only three remaining members of the Fool's Adventure Group are currently inside a private house in the south of Fenghua Town - this is the residence of the girl named Nina whom they had entrusted before. Although the house is very old, it was previously
When Mengzhu and Duan Qing came here, it was still a relatively orderly ordinary residence. But when Richard brought a few of them to this place, what they saw was a messy scene all over the ground.
"If I remember correctly, you were robbed here before, right?" The smiling butcher frowned at the scene in front of him and asked Richard in front of him.
"Yeah, that's right."
"But what do I think..." Uncle Smile spread his hands and expressed the same sentiment as the other two: "It looks like it was robbed..."
In the originally very old room, all kinds of furniture have been scattered all over the floor. The dusty pots and pans have now fallen to the floor, and some have even turned into pieces. The various tables around it
The wooden doors of drawers and cabinets were all wide open, and the contents inside had been taken out and thrown randomly on their respective floors. The messy scene extended to every corner of the house, including those that had not been occupied for a long time.
’s bedroom, and the room that belonged to Nina.
When several people found the room full of girl's atmosphere, they did not find the girl.
"Mengzhu, will Nina go somewhere else?"
"I don't know... As far as I know, she has no relatives and no one wants to take care of her, so she always hides in her room..."
"Then where is she now?"
"I-I don't know...I'm going to find her!"
Amidst the footsteps of someone running out, the smiling uncle walked into the girl's room with a frown. He looked at the various toys that had been torn to pieces, as well as the papers that were thrown everywhere.
All the eyebrows are twisted into a tight line.
"Does this criminal... have a grudge against the owner of this house?"
He picked up a part of a limb that looked like a stuffed toy and muttered to himself.
"Although I have only been here once, according to my observation, there is almost nothing valuable in this house." Suppressing his emotions, Duan Qing also walked to the inside of the room and looked at the messy scene: "
Therefore, if it were a thief, there would be no reason to choose such a place as his target."
The two people looked at each other, and both saw inexplicable worry in each other's eyes.
"Calling you here is indeed the right choice." Richard, who was leaning against the door, slowly walked in: "It seems you have understood something..."
"This is not an ordinary theft case." He spread his hands and said.
"What... do you know?" Duan Qing stood up, looked at the sloppy uncle with a smile on his face, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, where did you know about this...
."
"Well..."
"Uncle! Come quickly!" Mengzhu's shout suddenly sounded in the courtyard outside the window.
Several people immediately followed the sound and looked in that direction. Soon, they saw a figure in a purple burqa squatting at the door of a wooden house in the corner of the yard.
This wooden house looks like a storage room. After a few people approached, the first thing they saw was rows of firewood stacked together, followed by a pile of wooden barrels stacked together. Fortunately, this
The room does not seem to have suffered the same fate as the private residence. The items here are still basically intact, but judging from the dust on them, these items have not been touched for a long time.
The girl squatted inside near the door, raising her arms in a certain direction. Opposite her, in the corner behind the mountain made of barrels, the girl named Nina was holding her puppet and huddled in the corner.
Inside, he looked at the girl with the golden ponytail with doubtful eyes, and then looked up at the other people approaching.
She had no intention of coming out and had no words to say.
"What should I do? I thought she still knew me, but..." Mengzhu's voice was distorted in a hurry. Duan Qing stepped forward and tried to communicate with the other party, but what he got was still the frightened eyes.
.
"We are adventurers who want to help you find your father, do you remember?"
The other person just shook his head.
"She seemed to be very frightened." The smiling butcher said from behind: "We'd better not..."
"Let me do it." The sloppy uncle's voice suddenly echoed in the small storage room: "We... we don't have much time."
There was the sound of rumbling and orderly steps coming from the distance. When several people turned around and looked outside, Richard and the others strode into the storage room and slapped away the heavy-looking ones.
Bucket, then held the girl in his arms with both hands.
"Okay, okay, don't be afraid, uncle hasn't come to see you for a long time..."
"Don't even move!"
In the courtyard outside the door, several soldiers in full armor rushed in and pointed their spears at the only living people in the field.
"Hey, look who this is..." A man with obviously better armor than the other soldiers walked in with his hands clapped. Duan Qing and the other players knew him - he was the one who never treated them well.
The captain of the city guard with such a sullen face.
"You old guy...why are you here?"
"Entrusted by the Council of Mages, and also entrusted by...the person involved, the Adventurers Association came to investigate this theft." Richard, who was holding the girl, ignored the other party's bad attitude and remained calm.
Authentic: "Our arrival is very legal, Captain Patch."
"Hey, Mayor Rama gave me an order that put our city guards in charge of this matter...so your legality is of no use, Richard." The city guard was full of scorn.
The captain of the guard spat, then pointed at the people in front and said: "So you...get out of here quickly."
"In this case, dear Mr. Rama...are you going to confront the Council of Mages?"
"Hey, don't give me this trick. I don't know if Mayor Rama wants to fight with them. All I know is..." The middle-aged captain suddenly stretched out his finger and pointed.
The four people in front of the city guard: "The Adventurers Association has never been involved in criminal cases, at least not in Fenghua Town! What you are doing now..."
"Do you want to challenge the majesty of the law and our authority?"
The terrifying silence lasted for a few seconds in the tense atmosphere. Just when a fierce look flashed across the eyes of the city guard captain and he was about to wave his hand, the sloppy uncle finally gave in.
"Okay, okay, we'll leave here right away, but..."
"I will truthfully report the matters here to the Mages Council."
The city guard captain named Pachi laughed arrogantly a few times, and then waved his hand as if in demonstration, signaling them to leave quickly.
"Wait a minute!" Just when several people were about to walk out of the house with expressions of annoyance, Patch suddenly stopped them again - he pointed at the girl who was held in Richard's arms, his eyes full of vigilance.
Meaning: "This girl..."
Oops......
If Nina is treated as a client and asked to stay or be taken away, the Adventurers Association has almost no reason to object, but letting Nina fall into their hands...
"who is it?"
Phew, Duan Qing choked on his saliva. He quickly lowered his head and tried to breathe smoothly. At the same time, he motioned to the smiling butcher and blocked Mengzhu, whose expression was almost unbearable, behind him.
"...This is my niece." Sure enough, Richard said without changing his face: "She was sick, and I just wanted to take her to Fass for medical treatment, but... you know
of."
He put on a helpless expression and looked at the other party's suspicious face.
****************
"You are finally back!"
A few people who were frightened and full of questions quickly rushed back to the Adventurers Association, only to see an unexpected figure there.
The shirtless man, still wearing his ridiculous helmet, was sitting on a round stool on the first floor of the association with a big ax on his shoulder. He looked at the girl in the arms of the leader, Uncle Richard, who was originally grinning.
His expression gradually faded away.
"What's wrong with you..." He looked ahead with suspicion, and then at the other people behind him: "Can we still receive...a trafficking business?"
"What are you thinking about?" Mengzhu slapped his pointed helmet, knocking him staggering, and then said angrily: "Originally, I was worried that you would be unhappy if you died, but now...
...It would be better for you to die two more times."
"As a man, how can you be afraid of something like death! And I have died so many times, so I am already used to it!" Xiao Hongchen was still laughing, but the next moment, he put away his hearty smile again: "
But mother-in-law’s style is not a man’s style...isn’t it, captain?”
He looked at Duan Qing's face and asked mercilessly: "What is your relationship with that woman?"
"Haha." The other party also smiled: "I was just thinking about this..."
"That woman is just...my last girlfriend."
