When Fang Yu was about to go out, he let out a long breath. He looked back at the wooden sign hanging on the copper pole above his head. The words on it were very simple. The snow was falling heavily, and the copper pole and signboard were covered with snow.
A thin layer of snow.
No one else spoke. Parker looked a little absent-minded and was kicking away the snow on the roadside. The box was still the same as before, with his windbreaker pulled on, only his eyes exposed, and he put it in his purse with his hands folded.
, without saying a word.
Tianlan angrily walked out of the gate, and Jita stretched out her hand to pull her, but this little princess from Twelve-Colored Iris rarely shook off her little friend's hand.
"Fuli, don't be like this," Jita looked a little worried and said in a thin voice: "... Luo Yu didn't mean it. Isn't that the opinion of uncle and aunt... Besides, isn't he still here?
"
"If he meant it, that would be fine." Tian Lan was still angry and turned around, her white face flushed with anger, "He should go and be with those sexy bitches, anyway, with
We don’t have much of a future! I think everyone should disperse. Anyway, I plan to stay with the Nanami Troupe!"
As she spoke, she glanced angrily into the hotel. Luo Yu walked alone at the back of everyone, lowering his head and saying nothing. He raised his head and looked at Tianlan, and soon sighed again.
Lower your head.
"Fuli." Ai Ti couldn't help but speak. What kind of nonsense did this little girl say?
Tianlan didn't dare to talk back to Miss Elf, so she could only look away angrily.
However, Fang Yu seemed very calm. He turned around and said, "Luo Yu, walk faster, everyone is waiting for you."
"Who's waiting for him?" Tian Lan couldn't help but mutter: "He goes wherever he likes, traitor!"
"Shut up, Tianlan." Alyssa couldn't help but speak.
Seeing that Miss Nightingale was not easy to mess with, Tian Lan could only snort softly.
"Captain..." Luo Yu held his magic wand, which was still the one given to him by Fang Plover. It had been modified several times since then. He held the metal rod of the magic wand in his hand, and his knuckles were slightly clenched.
He turned white and stood there for a while, unable to move forward.
Fang Yu walked up to Luo Yu and patted him on the shoulder. They had been teammates for more than a year, and there were some things that didn't need to be said.
The place where they met Luo Yu's parents was not in Gula Port, but in a small village called 'Galayit' to the north of Gula Port. Fang Yu originally thought that this was just an ordinary meeting.
It is completely reasonable for Luo Yu's parents to want to meet their son's new teammates.
After all, Luo Yu's parents, as the previous generation's selectors, naturally have a different vision than ordinary people, and they will definitely have certain requirements for their son and the team he belongs to.
However, Fang Yu is not too worried. In his mind, the Seven Seas Brigade is definitely a potential stock. This is not just blind confidence. After all, potential newcomers like Luo Yu, Jita, Alisa and Box, in fact
Rarely are they all on the same team at the same time
Unless it is the youth training team of a large guild, such as a team like Sophie's men.
But being able to compare with the Grand Guild is already an affirmation of the Seven Seas Brigade.
As for Parker and Tianlan, they each have their own abilities. Although they are not top-notch, they are still considered excellent among ordinary teams. Logistics talents are also considered talents, especially those like Tianlan who are good at calculating and calculating. They often serve as
important duties.
As for Luo Hao, who joined later, he was also an outstanding talent recommended by the military. In Fang Pultru's view, his performance was at least on the same level as Jita's and Luo Yu's, and he was especially good at intelligence analysis.
In fact, the core members of a large adventure group are only about ten people, and now the Seven Seas Brigade has raised half of it. With his own addition, an excellent foundation has been laid.
At present, the Seven Seas Brigade is not comparable to those veteran adventure groups that have been around for many years. It is not ranked among the well-known names such as Loofah's "World Sword", Fox's "Grey Brigade", or "Twilight of the Gods"
Dragon Roarer'.
It's not even comparable to some of the second-tier teams active in the first world, such as the 'Silver Shadow' he once encountered.
But the problem isn't that everyone in the Seven Seas Troupe is still a newcomer. Most of them have only been in this world for a year.
Unexpectedly, at the beginning of the meeting, Luo Yu's parents poured cold water on them straight to the point.
Luo Yu's parents don't look very old. His father looks like he is in his early forties. He wears a pair of silver-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. He looks elegant and elegant. He doesn't feel like a chosen one but more like a chosen one.
He has the same profession as his uncle: writer.
But thinking about it carefully, it seems that his uncle is also a former Chosen One. It is not uncommon for Chosen Ones to return to Earth and write biographies. It's just that there are not many best-selling authors like her uncle.
However, it was Luo Yu's mother who spoke first. She was a very beautiful woman. Fang Yu estimated that this lady should be at least in her thirties or close to forty years old, but the years did not seem to have left any traces on her body.
Same.
She was wearing a ranger's cloak, with pointed ears, and looked somewhat capable. This was probably her past occupation. Fang Yu was almost certain that Luo Yu inherited his mother's excellent genes. Their facial features were very similar, but their performance
For a kind of quiet handsomeness.
After introducing herself to them, the lady said straight to the point: "I heard about the contract between the Tapolis Oak Knights and you. They loaned Luo Yu and Jita to you. We actually knew about that at the time.
Yes, there was no objection."
"My husband and I entrusted my son to the Oak Knights because we had a relationship with them in the past. We still have some feelings for the Knights and have made many contributions. They promised to give Luo Yu the best treatment.
, this commitment does not end just because they transfer Luo Yu to you."
"It was for this reason that we acquiesced to the deal."
Fang Plover opened his mouth at that time.
But the lady stopped him: "Is Ed right?"
"Yes, Auntie."
"Ed, I've heard some things about you." Luo Yu's mother slowed down a little, "We were once chosen ones, and we can understand your pursuits. Free chosen ones, this is also Tapolis's.
One of the spirits. So when Luo Yu proposed to take risks with you, his father and I both chose to acquiesce."
But then she changed the subject, "But please also understand my expectations for Luo Yu as a mother. We hope that one day, he can go to the second world, at least go further than us, instead of in the third world."
This world is a waste of time. You should understand what super competition is. Although there are thousands of people coming into this world, in the end, only a few people are truly remembered."
Fang Plover was slightly startled.
Luo Yu's mother continued: "Now that the Tapolis Oak Knights are no longer here, the contract between you and the Knights is actually invalidated. Since the Knights have been disbanded, this can also be regarded as a
This is a force majeure. So I think it is necessary for us to re-examine our original decision."
Tianlan was sitting at the side of the table. Only then did she understand the meaning of these words. She turned back and looked at the people next to her in disbelief.
Luo Yu frowned: "Mom, I..."
"you shut up."
Luo Yu's mother interrupted him directly: "This is a matter between us and your team. We believe in your team leader, and you should also believe in him. On such an occasion, it is not your turn to speak."
Luo Yu suffocated and sat back down again holding the magic wand.
Fang Yu couldn't help but be speechless. He had never seen such a mother-child relationship. Although Ms. Zhang Rou would 'sometimes' teach him a lesson, most of the time, the relationship between him and his uncle and aunt's family was equal.
Except for the caller, everything else can be discussed equally.
Not only him, but also Tang Xin.
But by this time, he knew he had to speak:
"Auntie, about Luo Yu..."
"Captain Ed, without contract constraints, Luo Yu should be free. In theory, he can decide whether to stay or go." Luo Yu's mother said forcefully: "But I understand that teammates and teammates
What kind of relationship do we have with each other, so we want to meet you all? We have actually negotiated with another local guild, and they are willing to accept Luo Yu under the same conditions. There is a chance for Luo Yu to go there.
Second world.”
She looked at Fang Yu, and then at everyone sitting there: "You and Luo Yu are both friends, so you should hope that he can go further, right?"
"It's too selfish of you to say that."
An indignant voice came from one side.
Fang Yu didn't need to look at it to understand that it was Tianlan. This little girl from France has always had a character that can't tolerate sand in her eyes, especially this time the protagonist of the incident is Luo Yu. How could she tolerate this?
In fact, the fact that she could wait until now to speak was because she saw that the other person was Luo Yu's parents.
Jita sat aside honestly, even looking at Tianlan with a little fear, she bit her lip, her face was as white as snow.
But the woman sitting opposite didn't even look at Tian Lan, and only focused her eyes on Fang Plover.
Fang Yu was silent for a moment, and then replied concisely:
"Auntie, even if Luo Yu stays in the Seven Seas Brigade, he can still go to the second world."
"I believe you have such strength," Luo Yu's mother replied: "Ed, it's not that we don't know anything about you. Every feat you did in Dolifen and Vanric, I and I
Luo Yu's father naturally sees it. We were once selected, and we are not blind people. When the Oak Knights were willing to rent Luo Yu and Jita to you, I believe that Yugudola and the others did not act blindly.
generation."
"Then why?" Tian Lan couldn't help but asked dissatisfiedly.
"But the Knights are no longer there," Luo Yu's mother said: "Ed, the Chosen are not just romantic adventures. You have been in this world for a year, and you should have some experience of this. No one
With the support of huge guilds and forces, a simple adventure group cannot go far. You had the support of the Oak Knights before, and even built your own aerospace ship, but what happens after that?"
Fang Yu did not expect that Luo Yu's parents actually thought that their sailboat was built with the help of the Oak Knights of Tapolis. But this is not surprising. How could a normal adventure group have such a plan?
This capital flow?
Therefore, it is normal for anyone who does not understand the inside story to have such thoughts.
He was a little surprised that Luo Yu didn't tell his parents about this, but there were too many secrets about the Seven Seas Traveler, so it didn't seem wrong for the other party not to tell them.
"We have money!" Tian Lan was angry and jumped up from his seat.
But Luo Yu's mother was not surprised at all, and only replied: "You may still have some funds now, but what about in the future?" She looked at Fang Pulver again: "And Captain Aide, you should know that this is not just
It's a matter of money."
She paused for a moment before asking again: "Do you have a quota to go to the second world?"
This question has been asked to everyone sitting here.
Even Tian Lan couldn't help but shut her mouth, and there was a silent silence at the table.
…
The cold wind from the north swept the snowflakes all over the sky, and they still fell from the sky one after another.
Fang Yu looked at Luo Yu, who was still not over the previous dispute, and couldn't help but sigh. The other party didn't seem to have much reaction to his comfort for a while.
But this is not surprising. On one side are his parents, and on the other side are the teammates who have been with him day and night this year. Although he finally made the decision to stay, it was tantamount to a complete break with his parents. Anyone would feel pain and dilemma in such a situation.
of.
"Look," he said again, "Aren't my uncle and aunt completely opposed to it? As long as we get enough places, we can convince them. If you think about it carefully, they don't necessarily want you to leave the Seven Seas Brigade.
Tuan, they are also good for you, they just don’t understand us."
"It's easy to say. It's simply impossible to get so many places in just one year. Brother Ed, don't lie to us. I was also born in Twelve Colors Iris, so I naturally know how to go to the second world.
How precious is the quota."
Tian Lan was really angry and couldn't help but speak again.
She has never suffered this kind of grievance since she came to Corin-Ithurian. In her opinion, the Seven Seas Brigade is the best in the world. Even if it is not now, it will be in the future. Some people look down on this group more than others.
She made her still feel angry.
But she still couldn't refute, after all, the other party was none other than Luo Yu's parents. And no matter how willful she was, she understood that what the other party said actually made sense.
She was just angry that Luo Yu had never told her about this in the past few months.
Even so angry that he gritted his teeth
At this time, Sylvide also walked out of the hotel. With the help of Siesta, she put on her coat and pulled her collar before coming to Fang Plover. She raised her head and looked at her lover, the noble lady.
She touched him quietly with her hand, smiled with her eyes moving, and asked softly:
"Did I not cause you any trouble just now, my captain?"
Fang Plover shook his head again.
It was their ship officer lady who proposed to Luo Yu's parents to get tickets to the second world within one year. In fact, it was this sentence that made the final decision and saved the stalemate at the table just now.
Atmosphere.
Because Luo Yu was determined not to leave the Seven Seas Brigade, and even showed an attitude of breaking up with his parents, and Fang Yu certainly didn't want something like this to happen just for this reason.
He knew Luo Yu very well, and even if the other party stayed because of this, this matter would definitely become a worry in his heart.
Luo Yu is definitely not like Tianlan who can run away from home for a year and a half without any carelessness or self-consciousness.
"That was the only choice at the time. Luo Yu's parents were willing to give us a year, which is enough to show their trust in us," Fang Pultruion replied: "Besides, although there are many difficulties, we are not without opportunities.
"
But Tianlan didn't believe it.
"Anyway, I don't see where the opportunity is," she snorted slightly, still angry: "And I don't want to understand them, they are selfish."
"Tianlan, those are Luo Yu's parents. He is your teammate, not an enemy," Attila finally said again, "Even among us elves, the elders place expectations on the younger ones.
A reasonable thing may not be done in the right way, but that is why people need to communicate.”
Tianlan wanted to refute, but after looking at Luo Yu who was standing aside, she finally thought about it and still didn't speak.
"All in all, it's not the worst situation right now," Fang Plover breathed out, not expecting that the meeting would end up like this. However, he has always been an optimist, and this difficulty will not scare him.
to him.
He looked at Luo Yu and smiled: "Don't worry, there's actually nothing to think about. I promised another person who is very important to me a long time ago, almost exactly the same words."
"I said that in the future I will definitely form the most famous adventure group in the world, at least one of them. What is the second world? We are not only going to the second world, maybe we will also find the gate to the third world.
, I haven’t forgotten what I said back then.”
Fang Yu vowed: "These words are all true. Luo Yu, your parents will also understand us."
Luo Yu took a deep breath, closed his mouth tightly and raised his head to look at them, his eyes meeting everyone except Tian Lan. Even Miss Nightingale smiled and nodded to him.
Of course, only a certain little girl turned her head away, leaving him with a big back of his head. Luo Yu looked at his little girlfriend helplessly and sighed, but Fang Piao's words finally made him a few
After months of worrying, I felt like letting go of everything at this moment.
Although when he thinks of his parents' attitude, it still seems like a lingering cloud in his heart. His parents said they would give them a year, but he actually knows his mother very well. If they still have it within a month or two,
If you don't get a quota, the other party will definitely put forward other conditions.
But at least now, he has temporarily solved this problem.
Tianlan couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Fang Pliant bragging, and said: "Brother Ed, you have to have a certain temper when you brag. Also, please lower your voice. I'll be embarrassed if someone else hears it."
died."
"Wait a minute, this is not bragging," Fang Yu was stunned, "I'm serious."
"Are you saying that the Seven Seas Troupe will be more famous than Fox's Gray Tour in the future?"
Fang Plover didn't dare to say this.
Gray King Fox, is that an ordinary person?
"Well, at least it has to be the same."
"Tch, show your true colors soon. Brother Ed, you are so useless!"
However, bickering is bickering. To obtain all the places required by the Seven Seas Brigade within one year, under certain circumstances, is really a fantasy. Fang Plover actually had another way in mind.
