Qin Ran is no stranger to the places marked on the map.
Because that's almost where he met Kars last time.
Thinking of the guy who was still killed when he returned to his room, Qin Ran frowned. He knew very well that the current silence was just the calm before the storm.
Storms can come anytime.
And he
Need to accumulate more strength before the storm comes.
Thinking of this, Qin Ran didn't stay long, boarded the train directly, and headed for the outer city of the huge city.
…
In the dark room, those five people were still gathered around the table.
"The latest news, 2567 went to the outer city to look for the 'swordsmith' Ashley."
A person said slowly.
"This is an opportunity."
The person opposite said in a deep voice.
"Chance?"
"The last time you sent people to test it, you also said it was an opportunity."
"But what happened?"
"None of the several subordinates I have carefully trained have returned, and they died for no apparent reason!"
The person on one side snorted coldly.
"At least their deaths were worthwhile."
"We know there are some guys hiding around."
The person in the farthest corner said lightly.
"The reason why you can say such words calmly is because someone who died was not yours!"
The person who snorted coldly before said angrily.
"The dead are already dead."
"What we need to face is now."
"The four of us will give you the corresponding compensation, and then..."
"What about this time?"
The one who spoke first was obviously the leader of the five people, and no one objected to what he said, just like when he looked at the person who kept silent from the beginning to the end, the eyes of the other three were also It fell on the person who seemed to be one with the shadow.
"Wait and see."
"'Sword of Dawn' 2567 and 'Swordsmith' Ashley are not fools. If we really provoked their fight, what do you think will happen in the end?"
"More than 80% will be besieged by two people."
"Are you ready to fight the two of them?"
asked the man who merged with the shadow.
With such a question, the four present were silent.
The answer is obvious.
they do not.
Because, what they need to face is not only the two powerful enterers, but also those guys behind them.
Think of the gang of 'lone walkers' in the Harvest Tavern
Each of them seems to be alone, but if you provoke one of them, especially under the premise that the relationship and lawlessness are extremely good, it will definitely provoke a group of people.
Not to mention the tavern proprietress.
What the opponent represents has already exceeded the imagination of ordinary players.
As for 'Swordsmith' Ashley
The skill mastered by the other party has long been destined to have a large group of people willing to cooperate with the other party.
A legendary long sword is enough for an enterer to join the opponent's camp and serve the opponent.
"Then what should we do?"
"That guy 'Broker' finally made a miscalculation, we can't just sit here and do nothing, can we?"
The slightly grumpy one broke the silence.
"Of course not."
"But we're going to make a change!"
"Didn't you realize that our eyes were too much on 2567 before!"
"I guess that bastard 'Broker' is already grinning from ear to ear."
The voice of the person in the shadow remained the same, and he said in a meticulous tone.
"Are 2567 and 'broker' together?"
The slightly grumpy person said subconsciously, but just as he said it, the other four people looked at him like idiots.
"What's wrong?"
"I'm just talking about a possibility."
"Is there no such possibility?"
Although the grumpy one knew that he was wrong, he absolutely had no intention of changing his words, and started messing around.
However, everyone here knows the character of the other party, and no one pays any attention to him.
"What are we going to do now?"
asked the man in the corner.
"'protector'!"
"From beginning to end, the target of the 'Broker' is the 'Guardian', or the 'Witch's Legacy'. 2567, the killer player is just a smoke bomb he released."
"I'm afraid that guy has already acted now."
said the man in the shadow.
"Then we have to hurry up."
The leader's tone sank.
Nobody wants to be one step behind the others.
One step behind, one step behind.
Everyone here knows this.
Especially when the leading person is a 'broker', it is even more unsettling.
"Don't rush."
"'Brokers' have their own way."
"We also have our own way."
"We can't rush after 'The Broker', it will just put us in his rhythm and let him lead us by the nose, just like the previous few times."
said the man in the shadow.
"you mean?"
The four looked at the person in the shadow at the same time.
"Use our rhythm to disrupt the rhythm of the 'Broker'."
"Then, let him get into our rhythm."
A chuckle came from the shadows.
…
Kieran stood on the edge of the huge city, looking at the blurry borderland in the distance.
There is not only darkness, but also a kind of turbidity, like a chaos, where a steady stream of robot teams are building.
Brand new streets, brand new houses.
"This is about to become a normal neighborhood."
"The new outer city will expand outward again."
Qin Ran looked at the rapidly rising houses in front of him, thinking silently in his heart.
Until now, he didn't know what plan the huge city was developed according to.
population
There are many players in the huge city, but it would be a joke to fill the entire huge city.
In fact, there are very few players on most of the streets of the huge city.
Crowding occurs only at some gathering points of gangs and shops.
Under such a premise, the population is obviously not the first.
Apart from this point, Kieran really couldn't think of any other possibility.
Qin Ran had no regrets about this.
He knows what he is good at and what he is not good at.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to 'Swordsmith' Aisley.
Clang, clang!
The dense knocking sound guided Kieran's direction.
After turning around a half-finished building, Kieran saw a tall man wielding a sledgehammer.
The opponent was hitting a piece of iron with a sledgehammer.
That piece of iron, under the opponent's knocking, turned into a sword at a speed visible to the naked eye, a long sword with a cold light.
However, Qin Ran's eyes did not stay on the sword.
but...
He looked at the sledgehammer in the tall man's hand.
In Kieran's perception, the sledgehammer seemed to become heavier and sharper.
That's right!
It's Fengrui!
A blunt weapon with a sharp feel.
This weird feeling made Qin Ran frowned.
But immediately, Kieran narrowed his eyes.
