"He's not coming back! He's not coming back!"

"he died!"

"It was you who killed him..."

"You killed him!"

Teng——

The sound of people sitting up in shock suddenly appeared in a small building upstairs in District D of Hualan City. At the same time, there was also the sweaty back of a woman sitting up from the bed. She was panting and then

He lowered his head deeply, and gradually covered his wide-eyed expression with his long black hair dripping with sweat. The heaving chest then slowly calmed down in the quiet night, and was replaced by

The woman's body gradually trembled, as if she was resisting the cold attack with all her body. Then she clenched her teeth hard, and after a while, she exhaled the cold air accumulated between the arms that hugged her tightly.

come out:"……"

What a nightmare.

The harsh cry from the depths of her soul slowly disappeared from her ears as she closed her eyes tightly. The woman in light gauze lay quietly back on the bed, and the narrow ceiling followed her.

The wandering eyes, unable to fall asleep again, appeared in her hazy vision again and again. She walked out of her bed at some point, reached out to push open the door, and then walked barefoot into the hall of this ordinary residence.

Then, using the moonlight hanging above the window in the middle of the night, he looked around at every corner of the vaguely illuminated living room: "..."

A nightmare that will never end.

So she thought.

There are still familiar sofas, still familiar tables and chairs, and the simple apartment that I bought from a certain landlady is now in front of this woman in a state that has not been tidied up for a long time. It is cold and cold.

The night wind kept beating on the closed windows, and together with the city lights outside, the mottled night shadows were illuminated in front of her again and again. Like a lonely soul, she stood there quietly with her head down, until one day

When the roar of a speeding hover car quickly crossed the ceiling, it moved slightly for a moment: "...No."

This is not a dream, this is reality.

Her moving lips began to squeeze and deform as her eyes moved slightly, and then formed into a long straight line in response to sobbing. After trying hard to control her emotions, she slowly let go of her trembling shoulders after a long while.

She stood down and looked around blankly at the doorway connecting this small living room to the outside world. The scenes that had appeared countless times in her dreams did not appear inside or outside that cold and ruthless door this time. At the same time, this originally made her

The dark room that should be very familiar became a bit more unfamiliar. The woman who withdrew her gaze tightly closed her mouth again and tried to use other methods to divert her attention: "Still..."

"Let's go back."

Ignoring the living room and her body that had not been taken care of for a long time, she then returned to the game cabin where she had placed herself with weak steps. The electronic sound that remained unchanged in the cabin then made its own sound.

The alarm reminded something with red lights and harsh syllables. Following the area pointed to by the alarm displayed on the electronic light screen, she focused on the module that should be stored in the safety device of the game cabin. It was originally crystal clear.

Her eyes became cold again as time passed, and finally she disappeared into the cabin with her short body movements: "...who?"

"it's me."

The dim silence was then broken by a connected communication in the cabin, and a middle-aged man's voice sounded in the woman's ears: "Are you... still in that place?"

"..."

"Come back, Brother Yan and I miss you very much."

As if he was well prepared for the woman's subsequent indifferent reaction, the voice on the other end of the communication rang again: "And those old friends from Wings of Freedom, they all miss you too."

"The Wings of Freedom...have nothing to do with me anymore."

"But this is still your home after all. The hard work you created and the hope left by your father. Are you going to watch these things fall into the hands of others and then be used by them to do whatever they want?"

"I won't let them do whatever they want, but I won't go back and help you fight for power."

As if she had already read through the mind of the person on the other side of the communication, the coldness in the woman's voice became a little thicker again: "I will use my own way to complete the final revenge."

"Uncle Fei knows that you are unwilling to give in, and there is nothing you can do about it." The middle-aged man's voice on the other side of the communication paused for a moment: "But you should also know the difficulties involved. Without the support of the guild and the team, I think

To fulfill such a wish is extremely difficult."

"..."

"As victims, we can still trust each other, right?"

As if feeling the hesitation emanating from the game cabin here, the middle-aged man's voice continued to persuade: "That guy Xu Liangyu is so prosperous now, and what he has taken away is the great cause we have accomplished together. Since we have a common enemy, we have to fight against each other.

Wouldn't it be more in line with our goals to cooperate with each other? You, Uncle Fei, have done many wrong things before, and now you have seen clearly the true colors of Chu Yunhe and that bastard. As long as you are willing to come back, these old brothers around me and I will also

This will give him the right name as a teacher..."

"...Needless to say, I never want to see all of you again."

The other party's words were interrupted with a cold voice, and the chill contained in the woman's body completely burst out with her emotions: "I will no longer be your tool, and I will no longer be controlled by anyone."

"...I understand how you feel now, but you are still one of the heirs of the wealthy Chu family." The middle-aged man on the other end of the communication still didn't seem to give up: "No matter you are Chu Lingbing in the past or Xue now.

Ling Huan Bing, the blood of the Chu family is still flowing in your body..."

"There are still many supporters standing behind you, and they have been looking forward to your arrival." His voice became more and more calm: "You don't have to end up in the same situation as that person, your future will definitely..."

beep--

The crisp sound of communication cutoff echoed in the dark depths of this small room, and then was slowly covered up by the woman's gradually rising and falling violent breathing. The woman's eyes were full of anger, and her originally beautiful face was as beautiful as a country.

Shi Ye was distorted due to violent emotional fluctuations, but after a moment, it was replaced by a sad look that gradually emerged: "If it weren't for you..."

If you hadn't made me look like that... everything would be your fault!

You are his murderers!

You are the ones who make him never come back again...

He will never come back.

Her thoughts fell to the bottom again, and her white arms that were held together gradually began to tremble, and her sobs slowly spread like the whispers of ghosts in this unknown land.

Deep in the room, the electronic sound that belonged to the startup of the game cabin suddenly covered up everything here. At the same time, the character named Xue Ling Huan Bing was once again sent to the sky above the empire map in the southwest of the free world, standing silently on the spot.

After a long pause, she then opened her eyes that had been closed tightly and cast her ruthless gaze on the distant horizon: "..."

"Oh, you finally showed up."

A light and joking voice then sounded in her ears, and at the same time, the image of an NPC adventurer in Art's exclusive dress appeared: "Where are you going to go next?"

"...Go to the south, to the province of Santerius." The woman named Xueling Huanbing took a slight breath: "I felt the same breath at the edge there."

"Really? Then I'll go and have a look too." Art smiled and nodded: "The place where this form of energy is stored may also hide the secrets I want to know."

"...You'd better stay away from me."

The blood-colored long sword lit up beside him for a moment, and Xue Ling Huan Bing, who ignored the other party, turned around and walked out into the depths of the field ahead: "Otherwise... I might accidentally hurt you."

"Such a heavy aura...this is not the same person you were when we first met, Ms. Snow Spirit Huanbing."

Still maintaining his usual smile, Art caught up with the adventurer's package in two steps and seemed to have no intention of staying away: "Did you encounter any accident when you were in the Sky City?"

"...Don't ask these meaningless questions." The woman who still didn't stop didn't seem to want to answer the other person directly: "I just want to destroy everything about the Magic Empire now. This is the only thing I can do now.

."

"Okay, okay, I have no intention of disturbing your revenge plan." So Art raised his hands: "But... are you sure we are going in the right direction? We seem to be heading in the right direction now."

Advance towards the Lebiru Desert."

"...I should be more familiar with the empire than you are." Xueling Huanbing, who was silent for a moment, finally shook his head: "The provinces of Santerius and Theberis are mutually exclusive.

On the border, we can walk directly from here to the ruins..."

"Just go through the village in front of you and the jungle in the distance."

*********************************

"Aha."

Placing the package on his shoulders heavily on the ground, Linyuan Duanshui stood up and wiped the sweat drops on his head vigorously. He kept his bent waist for a long time due to fatigue, until

When an old voice of inquiry suddenly sounded in his ears, there was a slight deviation: "What's wrong, adventurer, you're back so late?"

"Ah sneeze!"

What answered him was a loud sneeze, and the helpless expression of the magician who slowly straightened up while rubbing his nose: "Sorry, I encountered a lot of things..."

"Another group of bandits? Or a group of bandits?"

"Uh...it's a fight between some adventurers."

With a slight wry smile, Linyuan Duanshui shook his head vigorously: "As a result, I lost most of the goods I wanted to purchase, and ended up going back to the city to replenish some..."

"...I won't tip you more."

Walking out of the darkness of the hut with a cane, an old man with white hair and beard who had been talking aloud finally revealed his body in gray robes in front of the magician: "And... the extra money spent on goods, finally

It will also be counted in your salary."

"No problem, no problem." Linyuan Duanshui, who had his salary deducted, didn't seem to be dissatisfied at all: "As long as you continue to take me in."

"It's really strange." The old man with his hands on the crutches raised his eyes and looked at this man: "You obviously have the qualifications for self-awakening, but you still want to stay here as a handyman... Are you sure you don't want to go out and take risks? See things.

The wider world?"

"Compared to that more dangerous world, I think it is safer to stay here." The young magician crossed his hands and moved his sore waist: "I will help you and run a business.

This magic house seems to be very nice too."

"...Okay, whatever you like."

After looking at the player steadily for a while, the old man lowered his head again and then slowly walked to the light at the edge of the hut. While admiring the gradually brightening sky, he sat on a small bench there.

: "Anyway, the outside world is not very safe during this period of time. The balance of power in the magic world has also been thrown into chaos by an uncontrolled child... Well."

"Speaking of which, he seems to be about the same age as you." The old man, still standing with his hands on his back, turned his head: "I heard that you adventurers are very well-informed... Do you know that little bastard?

"

"……who?"

"A guy named...Moshang Qingshan."

The still cool wind passed by the entrance of Carlo Village, bringing a somewhat same cold feeling to this novice village. The faint sound of chicken crows was accompanied by the scene of some players gradually disappearing as they passed by.

At the door of the newly opened small shop, the last chill of late spring was dissipated with each other's plans and enthusiasm for the new day. The young magician holding the counter of the small shop quietly turned his back to the people who were gradually passing by, as if

After using all his thoughts to deal with the question in front of him, it wasn't until some players passing by began to notice the movement of this small shop that he smiled lightly in the direction of the old man: "Of course I... know him.

"

"……oh?"

"To be precise, I've heard of him."

Slightly retracting his flickering gaze, the young magician focused his gaze on the entrance near the outside of the counter: "An adventurer who made a big fuss on the day the Sky City came into existence, and finally committed suicide foolishly...

…is that so?"

"Everyone thought he was dead."

The old man sighed lightly, retracted a withered hand and stroked his old beard: "Both the Mages Council and the Magic Empire seem to have confirmed his death, and even the Empire and the Principality announced so...

What do you think?"

"We also think he is dead." Linyuan Duanshui replied with a smile: "At least he will never appear in this world again."

"……Well."

Closing his eyes slightly, the old man moved his head up and down thoughtfully: "The way you adventurers express themselves is really strange. You can even say such a conclusion without any basis..."

"If possible, I would like to hear the reason why you think so." He pointed to the sky outside the cabin, and then gave a strange smile: "Or..."

"How about telling your own story?" (To be continued)
