"Your ability to talk and talk seems to have improved a lot compared to before. You can actually explain this kind of thing..."

"Aren't I always good at talking? What's this level of deception?"

"So you don't have a 100% guarantee at all? I think he was so scared just now..."

"Keep your voice down! Aren't you afraid that he'll beat you up? I just saw you trying to pull out your sword, and I was so frightened that I broke out in a cold sweat."

Following the road gradually opened up by the warrior Locke, Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing, who were following behind, soon came to the shadow of a city wall behind the city guard's blockade. The air around them also followed the silhouette of the people.

It is getting rarer and quieter, accompanied by the slow and clear footsteps of the tall and burly captain of the Third Guards Squadron of Tanzania City who is walking in front. It seems that he has been paying attention to this place.

There was a movement, and several players who wanted to get closer but were stopped outside the blockade by the rest of the city guards then cast their gazes on the backs of Duan Qing and some of them wanted to imitate him.

The guys then also tried to lobby with a few imperial soldiers around them, but they soon failed in the sound of intimidation and warning.

None of them, including Xue Ling Huan Bing, understood how Duan Qing succeeded in persuading the soldier Locke to the negotiating table. The reason for this was probably only known to Duan Qing himself.

[…As a friendly gesture, the success rate increases by 10%.]

[The achievement rate of known information conditions is 57%, and the success rate test begins. 】

【——The test is passed and the hidden quest line is opened. 】

【Claude Gloria chooses information exchange.】

Gloria.

I seem to have heard the name of this family from someone's mouth.

Lowering his head, Duan Qing hid his expression after hearing these system prompts in deliberate movements. The gesture he made calmly and then, together with his eyes that had sorted out his emotions, fell on the person in front of him.

On the back of the famous soldier Locke: "That..."

"First of all, please allow me to apologize."

Reaching out to interrupt Duan Qing's inquiry, Locke turned around and threw the big sword behind him to the ground: "After I went back that night, I really thought about it carefully. I thought it was a very big sword."

A good opportunity, a good opportunity to use you and your companions."

"You want to deal with Luxor Hangu, right?" Duan Qing smiled at the corner of his mouth: "So you want to use our faces to explore the way first?"

"Although I don't know the specific details, John should have told you everything I want to tell you."

After wagging his fingers up and down for a while, Locke's eyes fell on the sky above Duan Qing: "I thought that the information given to you would be helpful in spying on intelligence, but I didn't expect that you would be captured without even meeting me.

Kicked out..."

"Is the water chief of the empire so untrusted by your military?" Duan Qing asked half-jokingly: "Aren't you afraid that they will turn against you?"

"General Steele has never paid attention to the rats hiding in the darkness of the empire. In the general's eyes, these guys are no different from the restorationists."

His face gradually turned gloomy, and Locke, the warrior who had always maintained a rock-like aura, finally gritted his teeth: "Every day, I rely on those secret tricks and the handles I have to make small moves, either to threaten other officials of the empire or to control them.

In their hands, if you dare not listen to them, they will make those thorns disappear invisibly... Our Frey Empire is an empire full of glory and dignity. How can we allow such things to control our country? Our empire

The great warriors charged and killed on the front lines and shed their blood for the empire. Will the final achievements be handed over to such a group of despicable people?"

"Please allow me to be rude, Mr. Locke." Duan Qing sighed helplessly: "But your current idea is a bit dangerous. After all, there are always people who need to stand up and sacrifice for the empire..."

"I'm not fighting for the sacrifice and bloodshed of my men." Locke clenched his fists hard: "I can dedicate myself and my brothers to the glory of the empire and the people of the empire, but it is definitely not...

…those guys!”

A heavy pounding sound appeared at Duan Qing's feet as the warrior's fist suddenly swung down. It was the sound made when the wind from Locke's punch collided with the earth and rocks on the ground.

Duan Qing, looking at the sunken pit and the cracks spreading around it, swallowed involuntarily, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned into a dry smile: "General, we can't generalize, at least they should also be in Germany.

Under the rule of Emperor Rainier..."

"Emperor Drenir is too far away from here."

Taking a deep breath, Warrior Locke pressed his back against the city wall: "He can tolerate even idiots like Romlia, not to mention those shadow people who are good at backstabbing others in secret, and he can't stand it.

Compared to those bullshit nobles, they are obviously more useful..."

"Although the Lion-Hearted Emperor is equally great, there are always things that he cannot take into account in such a huge empire." Duan Qing responded with a smile: "I seem to have heard this sentence somewhere before. It was your Excellency who said it.

Of?"

"Don't try to increase the weight. Since I chose to tell you this today, I have already thought of a way out." Locke's eyes slowly fell on Duan Qing: "You and your companions...

Are you willing to help us?"

"I heard earlier that there is a conflict of interest between the empire's military and those from the ANBU..."

It seemed that the other party had finally caught his attention. Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was standing next to him, folded his arms in front of his chest: "I didn't expect that the contradiction and hatred are not small."

"General Steele is the resolute leader in our imperial military who advocates the elimination of Simon's faction, and there are many aristocratic factions allied with him." Warrior Locke grinned: "If we go to the imperial capital, such a confrontation will

It might become more obvious."

"So your so-called deal is not just about helping you deal with Lord Luxor." Xueling Huanbing's tone became deeper: "You want us to stand on the side of the military, right?"

"Believe me, this is good for you all." Touching his short hair gently, Locke turned to hold his hands: "As long as you can become our strength at this time, I will represent the Imperial Rock Bear Legion.

I solemnly thank you, your names will definitely be on the merit list of the Iwakuma Army, I guarantee it on my behalf."

"It sounds very touching." Duan Qing narrowed his eyes slightly: "But we also have other tasks and commissions to deal with..."

"There must be something wrong with Lord Luxor."

His face gradually became serious, and Locke turned his attention to Duan Qing: "The man named Han Gu... I also checked his details before. Although this guy is indeed recorded in the Luxor family's clan,

We are on the list of members, but I have never heard of such a person who is good at conspiracy before."

"If you really accept his commission, please be careful now." Locke said with a straight face: "Don't believe everything you see now, that guy is probably in

Deceiving you."

"We are also entrusted by others, so we can't just spend time here."

Shrugging helplessly, Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "Otherwise...you will pay me this time's rewards and rewards on his behalf?"

"How is this possible? We are not a charity organization." Locke touched the back of his head helplessly: "Including the matter of the Violet Tower and the magic outbreak in Robert City... I have told you so much, and you still haven't

Are you going to reveal some information you know?"

"They are just scandals that are not worth mentioning. They are not intelligence at all." Duan Qing curled his lips: "Do you really want to know the details of how those violet mages drove me out of the tower?

Or did it cause an explosion when I was helping others make gold?"

"……All right."

The wind that kept blowing passed through the air in front of several people with the chill that was about to fall into the night. The burly warrior who was looking at Duan Qing intently finally gave up his probing gaze. He stretched his hand and looked towards the gray man.

The magician in robe and the white-haired woman made a friendly gesture: "How is it? Are you interested?"

"We need to think about it."

Secretly looking at Xue Ling Huan Bing beside him, Duan Qing finally shook his head slightly: "Unless you can help us solve the problem of login and reward entrusted to the Adventurer Association, otherwise... we must sooner or later

Meet that Han Gu again."

"These two issues are not in conflict." Different from his previous rock-like image, Locke blinked his eyes: "If possible, this is actually a better opportunity, isn't it?"

"...Okay, I do need someone's information." Duan Qing stretched out his finger: "But -"

"We have used our own methods to investigate, and your help... now it seems that it may not be necessary."

"...Listen, we don't have much time."

Reaching out and lifting the big sword at his side, Locke tapped Duan Qing's shoulder with the fingers of his other hand: "You can only say this for this reason. You only have half a day to think about it."

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Duan Qing pulled on his robe and asked, "Have you already made preparations and are waiting to oust Lord Luxor and his immediate superior?"

"The officers and soldiers of the empire are not as scary as those of the nobles. We will only solve the problem on the table."

Carrying his big sword, he gradually walked toward the road he came from. The warrior paused for a moment and nodded towards the gate of the city wall not far away: "The imperial royal guard is in the city now, and His Highness the Prince will be here soon."

We are about to arrive in this city, and the situation will be..."

"But it's not something you and I can control."

Following the direction he indicated, several people looked towards the distant defense line that was still being pulled up by the city guards. The night was getting darker and darker, and with the sound of crowds coming from more and more players and NPCs gathered at the city gate,

Gradually, it enveloped the city of Tanzania. With the last bit of face and reputation he had, Duan Qing, who was dragging Xue Ling Huan Bing with him, finally sneaked into the city in advance with the help of Locke, and headed towards those who were shouting the opposite.

The figure moving farther and farther in the direction then extended along the imperial-style street, gradually walking towards the depths of the city where the lights were getting brighter: "...Why don't you agree? Didn't we successfully open the hidden quest line?

?”

"This line is indeed hidden. It is probably one of the ways we can break into the Imperial Military Department at this level."

Duan Qing, who tightened his robes and walked side by side on the street, replied in a low voice: "To be able to fall into the eyes of those imperial warriors at this level... Ha, I am getting more and more confused.

The rules of the game for this system.”

"If you want to boast about your charm, please just say so." She stuck out her tongue and made a face, and Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes were filled with the light of thought: "But this is indeed a good opportunity. I turned out to be free.

During the time of the Wings, the people in the guild spent a lot of effort to squeeze into the upper echelons of the empire through the hands of the nobles. If they can take the shortcut of the military..."

"Choices always come with a price."

After interrupting the other party, a serious look gradually appeared on Duan Qing's face: "Making up our determination to help the military means that we will completely give up on the dark side of the empire. This may not be a problem for most players.

What a loss, but it’s different for us now.”

"Especially when the other party is an old acquaintance." He gradually stopped and looked towards a tall building complex in the distance of the street: "If we cut it off now,

Regarding the possibility of the other line, it is not certain which side will suffer greater losses."

"Old acquaintance?" The white-haired woman who also stopped walked raised her head while pulling the lower edge of her hood: "Is he the person you mentioned before?"

"Yes, it's that guy." Duan Qing lowered his head and touched his nose: "Didn't I promise to introduce you to you if I had the chance? Let's go."

"Now? At least we must send these wolf skins we have to old man Yug."

"It's just a few gold coins. People like us don't care about it at all. Don't be like a housekeeper. If you save like this now, why will anyone want it in the future... Hey, hey, don't pull, don't pull, your ears are about to fall off!

"

"You, don't run!"

Amplified cries of pain and chasing sounds gradually spread towards the distance of the street as the two figures reappeared, and the figures holding two people together slowly merged into the crowd of people with flashing lights.

, another ordinary night in the free world, accompanied by the laughter of these two figures gradually blending into the street scene, and the noise from pubs and hotels, it descended into the ancient and simple urban outline of Tanzania.
