"Uh...ah hahahaha."
As if time had frozen for a few seconds, Duan Qing opened his mouth slightly while looking at the blue-haired swordswoman, and then just before she was about to approach him again, he stepped back and let out a few dry laughs:
"Um...no need to thank you, it's just a small effort..."
"Easy to do?"
Taking a few steps forward again, Xu Yu Liushang, who hung Hua Yan back on his waist, asked with a smile: "I have never seen an alchemist who would use his own life as a medicine... Or maybe, because of you?
What other reasons did he die?"
"..."
"Can you tell me how you did it?"
Looking at Duan Qing's embarrassed expression after he had been blocked with excuses and closed his mouth that he just wanted to open, the smile on his murmuring face became brighter: "I have been playing in the free world for so long.
In all my time, I have never seen an alchemical formula like the one you used before."
"Um...don't you need to follow them?" Pointing to the backs of the Greedy Moon Wolf and the two people who were about to turn around the next corner, Duan Qing's eyes kept flashing: "There is no Prince Highness.
Do you need to collect the rewards? You should have contributed a lot in the previous battle. What if they all take them away..."
"That little bit of prestige, let's just say I gave it to them."
He slightly brushed his long blue hair, and his murmuring expression became much more casual: "Anyway, I am not an orthodox imperial person. There is no need to work hard for the reputation of a prince in the empire, but you...
…”
"How do you know it was me who drove away the ambushers?" She twitched the corners of her lips, and a mature and charming smile bloomed on her face again: "Aren't you back from the dead?"
"I... well, I heard what my teammates said." After scratching the back of his head, Duan Qing subconsciously hid the Snow Spirit Huan Bing beside him: "She, she cares more about me.
I was worried about my safety, so I ran back early..."
"This... lady has the same name as the former goddess of ice and snow, right?" The smile on her face became a little more obvious, and she looked at the woman in white who was holding Duan Qing's arm tightly.
Face: "Look carefully now...even the appearance is somewhat similar."
"It's probably just a coincidence, a coincidence, hahahaha." Duan Qing's dry laughter became a little distorted: "I know that this friend of mine has a star appearance, and all beautiful women have had this experience.
Just like you..."
"So--"
With a mature and charming smile, she suddenly leaned in front of Duan Qing. She looked into Duan Qing's eyes with eyes that were only a few feet away: "Are you interested in making friends with me?"
"……ah?"
"A friend with a girl as beautiful, elegant, and extremely powerful as me?"
Gently pointing her finger at the other person's chest, the blue-haired woman's charming voice seemed to be in Duan Qing's ear: "Aren't you a fan of mine? This is the best opportunity to get intimate with your goddess."
"Uh, this, that...ahhhhh!"
The soft flesh on his waist suddenly suffered a heavy attack. Duan Qing, who hesitated and didn't know how to answer, couldn't help but let out a scream like a slaughtering pig: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I, I... I'm sorry,
that……"
"It seems that the relationship between you two...is closer than I thought."
The body that was leaning forward on tiptoes slowly retracted, and with a hint of mischief in his eyes, he nodded gently: "In that case, let's end the joke."
"Let's go back to the previous topic." She played with the ends of her hair: "Can you reveal to me the secret of the alchemy you use?"
"Why do people always ask me questions like this recently?" So Duan Qing put down his hand rubbing his waist with a look of helplessness: "So did the previous group of players, and so did the Lord of Violet just now... I want to learn this kind of thing
For alchemy, just go to Carlo Village and find the old man."
"The old man from Carlo Village?"
His eyes roamed back and forth on the expressions and outfits of the two people for a long time, his eyes became as bright as white as he whispered, and he slightly brushed his long blue hair back: "I see... I understand."
"Thank you for the information. I know this is like an undisclosed secret in martial arts to you." She put on a serious and solemn look again, and gently looked at Duan Qing and Duan Qing.
He bowed in the direction he was in: "To express my gratitude, let me also provide you with some information."
"Wha, what?"
"His Royal Highness must have some ulterior reason for coming to Tanzania this time."
The voice became a little deeper, and he whispered softly and pointed at the gate of the city lord's palace, which had become much quieter beside Duan Qing: "Originally, His Highness the Prince's itinerary was to go eastward along the Koska Province to the territory of the principality.
When discussing some matters related to cooperation, Santerius Province is passing through a border at most, and it has nothing to do with the city of Tanzania..."
"Now that he is here, he must have changed his itinerary." Speaking of this, Xiu Yu Liushang showed a thoughtful expression: "And it is very likely that he changed it privately."
"You know all this?" Duan Qing opened his mouth: "Are you the personal bodyguard of His Highness the Prince?"
"That pompous guy, I don't want to see him."
Shaking his head disdainfully, his murmuring expression then returned to calmness: "But... I couldn't guess the reason why he suddenly diverted here at first, but then after the outpost battle happened, I seemed to
I understand a little bit more.”
"His Royal Highness also knows the news that someone wants to plot against him, right?"
Duan Qing pinched his brows and glanced in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion: "Using a plan? Or do you want to sit here personally to thwart these conspiracies?"
"It seems you are indeed very smart."
He nodded and smiled, murmuring and then cast a charming look at Duan Qing: "I won't say any more. Since you have also experienced that battle, you should be able to guess other things.
Right?"
"..."
"Okay, I have some other things to deal with."
With one hand on her waist, the blue-haired swordswoman took two steps back towards the side of the street. The warning look from Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had been staring at Duan Qing, was also next to him.
, and gradually moved to the other side of the road: "Some of my useless members are also waiting for me at the tavern. Because of the previous series of things, they must have been waiting there for a long time."
"If you have time, we can talk about it later." She blinked her eyes, and finally waved her hand and walked in the direction she left: "Of course - if you want to contact me, the contact number of our adventure group
The point should also be registered in the association, you can go find me over there."
"I should probably stay here for a while."
The long blue hair was floating in the air with the wind, and the sassy figure of the female swordsman began to get farther and farther away from Duan Qing: "So... we will meet again, Linyuan Duanshui."
"Another trouble that I can't get rid of."
Watching the figure of the female swordsman getting further and further away from them, Duan Qing, who finally relaxed, sighed slightly: "And in the end, she didn't say which guild she was in now. You can't ask the No. 1 guild in the world.
Two...ouch!"
"..."
"Are you still acting?"
Duan Qing received another twisting attack unique to women on his waist. Duan Qing, who was rubbing his side ribs, turned his head helplessly: "Okay, don't make any more trouble. They have already left and you still--"
"Let's go and form a guild."
Interrupting Duan Qing's words, Xueling Huanbing, who was in white clothes and white hair, immediately showed a bright smile: "Didn't you already announce our adventure group to the outside world before? Let's go and fulfill it now."
"Ah?" Duan Qing, who was startled, had a hesitant expression on his face again: "Do you really want to honor it? I, I was just trying to find a name to excuse myself..."
"Let's not talk about whether we can get the reward this time...if we delay it for a long time, people might see some flaws."
There was a dangerous look in the smile, and Xue Ling Huan Bing's chest slowly pressed against Duan Qing's chest: "The name... is just like what we declared before, it's called Qing Ling Adventure Group. No objection, right? No.
Right? Very good."
"That `s a deal."
***********************
"This is your signature form."
Some time later, in the Adventurer Association hall, two figures belonging to Duan Qing took a white and clean page from the hands of the etiquette lady in front of them, and then faced the warm smile of the etiquette lady in front of them.
, while fighting against the persistent threatening eyes from Xueling Huanbing behind them. Under the leadership of the welcoming lady, the two people once again came to the VIP area on the second floor of the noble association, but this time they were attracted by the female NPC
The place he received was a small counter that looked like it had not been used for a long time: "If you want to establish a new adventure group, you need to have enough people first. According to the standards stipulated by the Adventurers Association, you need at least five
Submit an application for an adventure group together individually..."
"I, we will get enough people." With a few drops of cold sweat on his face, Duan Qing, who was hugged in front by Xue Ling Huan Bing, replied with a smile: "So just give us this share first.
"
"It's not impossible to give you just one copy, as long as you can sign the names of all team members." Miss etiquette continued with a warm smile: "You can come back to me with the signed copy then.
Then you can receive the trial mission from here."
"Trial mission...ah, I forgot that there is still this level." Duan Qing sighed helplessly: "Can you give us the mission in advance?"
"There are not enough candidates, and it is useless to issue trial tasks to you in advance." The greeting lady's smile was like a bright flower: "Please work hard."
"Uh...okay."
Wiping his sweat and nodding, Duan Qing turned around and handed the signature form to Xue Ling Huanbing's hand: "Look, it's not that I don't agree, we don't have any candidates at all now -"
"I come."
Grabbing the page from Duan Qing's hand, the white-haired woman walked downstairs in the sight of Duan Qing and the surrounding players. Then, after a period of silence and silence, she appeared again with an inexplicable momentum.
Returning to the small counter, with Duan Qing's amazed look in her eyes, she slapped the page full of handwriting on the counter, and then, as if remembering something, she moved toward Duan Qing.
The position moved two points: "By the way, there is you."
"Sign it."
"Luo Xiaoqing, Happy Tutu, genius super artificial intelligence 250... what are these?"
Looking at the names on the piece of paper, Duan Qing's expression became more and more strange: "Where did you find these IDs...these names?"
"Don't worry about it. Anyway, these are absolutely no problem names."
Staring at Duan Qing as if to demonstrate, Xueling Huanbing then pointed her fingers behind the three names with completely different handwriting and strokes: "It's your turn, remember to sign Linyuan Duanshui, don't write it wrong.
Already."
"This, this..."
The sweat on his face began to become more and more, and Duan Qing looked in the direction of the etiquette lady NPC who had been silent next to him as if asking for help, and then looked at the latter's smiling expression, like
He lowered his head as if resigned to his fate. He folded his arms and pretended not to care. Xue Ling Huan Bing, who had been waiting for a while, then snatched the page Duan Qing had finished writing over again, and then showed his face again.
With an expression of joy, he quickly wrote the four words "Xue Ling Huan Bing" at the end: "...Okay, here you go."
"Is it okay now?" She looked at the NPC's face eagerly: "What's next?"
"Well... although the information on this form is not complete yet, it should be enough."
After checking the piece of paper for a while, the etiquette lady nodded with a smile, and then buried her petite body behind the old counter, rummaging around for a long time as if searching for something: "You guys, just a moment
Wait a minute... Hey, where did the association's trial task list go?"
"Well, it doesn't matter if you can't find it... Okay, I won't say anything."
Looking at the warning look in Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes, Duan Qing finally lowered his head in embarrassment, then raised his head again amidst the NPC's cry of surprise, and took another old piece of parchment into his eyes: "
found it!"
"This is our trial task list for Tanzania City, although...well, this list is a bit old."
Holding the piece of paper, she jumped for joy for a while. Miss etiquette looked away and then looked at it again and raised her eyebrows: "Uncle Mu, it's been a long time since I checked and compared this A-level task list. Let me take a look.
…This has been completed, this has been cancelled, and this and this…sigh.”
"It seems like there's only one left."
She turned around with some embarrassment, and then handed a certain mission name at the end of the sheepskin scroll to Duan Qing and the other two. (To be continued)
