"You, you big bastard!"

Another ray of morning light gradually appeared on the eastern horizon, and a sudden angry shout separated from the crowd of people going to and from the north gate of Tanzania City, and then turned into a figure of a woman in white carrying a long white cloth on her back.

He ran towards the direction of a gray-robed magician who was sitting against the wall in the corner of the city gate: "Why did you come back from the dead?"

"You came back quite quickly." Duan Qing, who had been covered by the wind, frost and morning dew, blocked the sword blade raised by the other party from outside his body and replied with a wry smile: "I thought you were going to use it again.

Return in one day, or I can go directly to the tavern to pick you up..."

"I, I won't die casually like you!" Gritting his teeth, Xue Ling Huan Bing then slapped the side of the sword blade on Duan Qing's forehead: "It's you! As promised.

How come you end up risking your own life in saving people?"

"It doesn't matter how the process goes, as long as the final result is acceptable." Duan Qing waved his hand needlessly, and then blew his breath on the surface of the iron sword: "Otherwise, the final outcome will be

It may not be as simple as just me coming back."

"I-I'd rather just come back for free."

Slowly retracting her hand, the woman in white clothes and white hair showed a slightly lonely expression on her face: "Once you leave, I feel that there is no point in staying there..."

"Don't say that, we are standard imperial people now." Duan Qing smiled and shook his head: "It is our duty to protect the land and water of the empire."

"You said all the beautiful things, but in the end you were the first to die."

The body that looked very slender because it was not covered up kept swaying in front of Duan Qing. The woman in white who approached finally pointed at Duan Qing's nose with the same white finger: "Are you good at alchemy?"

"Isn't Yu Shang alive?" Duan Qing raised his eyelids: "Otherwise, given the situation before, how could you come back alive now?"

"……snort."

Letting out a heavy cold snort, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had been standing silently for a long time with her arms akimbo, turned to sit next to Duan Qing: "If I hadn't deleted my account and practiced again, I wouldn't have needed that woman to save me.

, this victory in the battle... let her be proud for a while first."

"Where is she? Ouch."

Duan Qing looked forward and then received another dull blow on his head: "Why didn't she come back with you?"

"She is still hanging around with the big troops." Xue Ling Huan Bing withdrew her fingers and said dullly: "I don't want to continue to act with her. Without you, the show can't go on..."

"Alright alright."

Understanding why the other party rushed back in such a hurry, Duan Qing, who looked helpless, finally reached out and issued an order for a friend to form a team: "Now that everyone is here, let's go back and try to hand in the task. Fortunately, we saved it in the end."

We need to reach the outpost, otherwise the reward for this mission may be wasted..."

"Your level."

The voice slightly interrupted Duan Qing's words, and Xueling Huanbing, who accepted the invitation to form a team, suddenly raised his surprised eyes: "How come your level has become level fourteen? Wasn't it level fifteen before?"

"...It's just some side effects of alchemy." Duan Qing paused as he wanted to stand up: "Don't worry, once this task is handed in, the level of experience will be increased instantly..."

"Your alchemy...does it use the character's experience points?" Xueling Huanbing, who did not let go of the opponent, then grabbed Duan Qing's arm and stared at the opponent closely: "How can this work? Before

You have refined so many potions...wait a minute."

"Is this the reason why you haven't left the Novice Village?" Her eyes widened: "It's been such a long time, and the version has even been updated once..."

"Stop guessing."

Duan Qing interrupted the other person's words lightly, and with a smile on his face again, he touched the other person's head with his hand: "Not every bottle of potion is made using the method of refining life, only a few

The spell requires the life support of the character. If converted into player attributes, it will probably be set like experience points..."

"There aren't many situations like this, and we don't often use them." He gently took the white-haired woman's hand: "In the end, at most, it will only deduct one level of experience from me. Compared with the final result I got.

, this little effort is simply a big profit.”

"Then, don't use such alchemy in the future." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who turned to hug Duan Qing's arm and looked a little pale, said in a low voice: "We have to upgrade together. If the level is

The gap is too wide..."

"Then I ask you to protect me." Duan Qing shrugged his shoulders and began to drag the opponent's clinging body toward the city gate: "Why, you have been training for so long, haven't you already?

confidence?"

"...even though I'm only at level ten now, I've killed many attackers."

After calming down his mind slightly, Xueling Huanbing, who had submerged into Chengmen Street with Duan Qing, finally put on a proud smile: "The Crook outpost was finally saved, and there is a part of me in it.

What a credit."

"Then do we still have to go to the military headquarters to receive some military merit?" Duan Qing smiled and shook his head: "With Locke's relationship, such a reward should be easy to get, although..."

"We don't know yet whether they have received news of the attack there or whether they have found out the cause of the attack there."

His footsteps paused slightly, and at the same time he looked back at the gradually brightening sky in the north of the city gate he had just passed: "Under such extraordinary circumstances, that remote place was suddenly attacked... There must be something wrong with outsiders.

Mysterious reason."

"I have heard something about this."

Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was also standing on the street inside the city gate, holding Duan Qing's arm, replied in a low voice: "When we left the outpost, we once saw a group of knights wearing gold-inlaid armor from a distance.

When they arrived there, they were still asking loudly what happened, while scolding the soldiers who were still alive..."

"Gold-encrusted armor? Is it the Royal Guard?"

"Yes, they are probably the Imperial Royal Guards who came to explore the road and set up front."

"Since they came from the north, it means..."

"His Royal Highness is coming soon, from that direction."

As the sun gradually rose, the brighter sky appeared in the sky above the two people's heads. At the same time, another day in Tanzania appeared in front of all the players. The hustle and bustle from the streets then became more and more intense.

The chatter and footsteps of passers-by carried Duan Qing and Duan Qing slowly towards the depths of the city. They seemed to be two passers-by who were no different from ordinary people, wearing gray robes and white cloth.

The two players were walking quietly on the road leading to the Adventurers Association. Only the discussions between the two people sounded from time to time, which still showed the relationship between these two people who had just experienced a shocking change.

Other passers-by are different: "In other words, they want to secretly control that outpost...but for what purpose?"

"Maybe he wants to attack the prince."

"I don't think their strength and level can defeat the imperial soldiers, and they are also the best elites of the imperial family."

"That's why they used a simple method like poisoning. Although you found out in the end... No, do you have a way to unblock that common poison?"

"I have a general understanding of how that toxin works, and the samples have been handed over to the archmages in the Violet Tower, but..."

"But what?"

"Even so, I still feel that this matter is not simple."

Duan Qing, who was walking slowly on the street where cars and horses were flowing, then set his sights on the corner of Central Street that was gradually revealed in the distance: "If things only come to this point, it can only prove that they deliberately want to control.

It's just an outpost, but even if we kill all the people at the outpost and replace them with their people, how can we make the final move of attacking the prince?"

"Should we still use poison?" Xueling Huanbing, who also stopped, replied in a low voice: "Use hidden poison to control Prince Chris?"

The lingering discussion finally followed the flow of people on the street and arrived at the corner of the Adventurers Association. Finally, it disappeared into the air on the street as Duan Qing took the lead in entering the association's door and closed his mouth.

The white-haired woman then silently walked to the rest area next to the task display board and sat down quietly on an unoccupied seat. She closed her eyes slightly and fell into deep thought.

Then she slowly used this method to get rid of the slight waves in her heart due to the large amount of information. Until the gray-robed magician who had returned came back from the still lively team in front, she

Then he opened his eyes again: "Failed?"

"If you know, don't ask again."

Sitting next to the other party angrily, Duan Qing, with a dark face, responded angrily: "The nominal mission was led by Xingluo Griffin's people, and they have the right to receive the mission rewards. We

The two are just assistants who don't even have a guild, and have nothing to do with the mission contract itself..."

"The three of them left late, and they are probably still on the road now." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had her hair tied up, said helplessly: "So we have no other choice but to wait?"

"I wish I could do some research of my own, but... we can't even eat right now." Duan Qing sighed and looked at the ceiling of the association hall: "Fortunately, I tricked someone into paying the bill for me yesterday.

Otherwise, I would probably have the negative state of hunger on my body by now... That's right!"

"What's wrong? What did you think of?"

"Didn't I give the few remaining bottles of valuable medicine to that little thief?" Duan Qing suddenly sat up and looked up at the second floor of the association: "Let's go and ask what the result is?"

"Didn't you agree with them on another meeting place?" Xue Ling Huan Bing shook her head helplessly: "If you want to go up to the second floor again, the two swordsmen guarding the stairs may not be able to

Agree again."

"no problem, no problem."

Pointing in the direction of the door, Duan Qing's eyes then fell on the back of a certain welcoming lady who had been standing at the door nodding in greeting: "Isn't it because of her that I got in last time?

I’ll ask her for help once again.”

"...What's the reason?" Xueling Huanbing rolled her eyes: "We can't just use the reason of establishing an adventure group."

"Let's talk about the reasons." Duan Qing, who had already stood up, walked in the direction of the petite NPC with a warm smile on his face: "Anyway, as long as you stand in front of the NPC, the reasons you want to find will come to you by yourself.

What comes to mind is...Hello."

"Hello."

The distance gradually narrowed as Duan Qing moved forward. It seemed that the welcoming lady who noticed the gray-robed magician walking behind him also turned around: "Welcome to the adventurers of Tanzania City.

Association, how can I help you?"

"Well, I——"

Trying hard to find a reason to reach the second floor, Duan Qing's smile became a little distorted along with his furrowed eyebrows: "I want... uh, I want to publish a few more adventurers' stories.

For entrustment, should I go to the second floor to handle it?"

"If it is a general entrustment, you can entrust it directly on the first floor." The welcoming lady replied with a bright smile: "We will have specialized personnel responsible for evaluating and grading your entrustment. Finally,

Post it on that display board.”

"Uh, I mean..." Duan Qing hesitated and said, "Well... I may need some professional matters and want to assign them to certain adventure groups to handle..."

"If that's the case, you don't need to leave the adventure mission to our Adventurer Association." Miss etiquette smiled and pointed towards the stairs next to her: "Just find the adventure group you want, and then explain it to them personally.

OK...ah, do you have their invitation letter?"

"It's just because I'm not here...ah, no, no."

Duan Qing almost spoke out the thoughts that came to his mind, and beads of sweat began to appear on Duan Qing's face: "I mean... do you have any other business that can only be handled on the second floor, such as intelligence selling?

, secret missions, gold coin loans, weddings and funerals, etc..."

"You two."

A low and neutral voice then interrupted the conversation between the two figures. At the same time, another person appeared wearing a lavender robe and holding a magic spell inlaid with countless magic patterns of different sizes.

The figure of a middle-aged man holding a stick, his hair and beard both meticulously combed, his impatient eyes rested on Duan Qing who was blocking the door for a moment, and then turned into slight surprise: "Excuse me..."

"Your Excellency, is Linyuan Duanshui?" (To be continued)
