◎I was just about to ask you, why is it still you?◎
Xia Li's eyes narrowed. Dead? Why? When did it happen?
Whatever she thought in her mind, she would type on the keyboard and send it out.
Cheng Tianxia: [I'm not sure how he died, but I saw the news from the world before I left...]
Xia Li was silent for a while and was about to ask another question when suddenly, she felt a hostile gaze from behind her.
"She still has the nerve to come here? Isn't she afraid of being ganged up on?"
"What a selfish villain! To please the Queen, she actually revealed Bros's identity as a goblin! Now, no player on the server can find suitable NPC enhancement equipment. I really want to slap her in the face and let her see how angry everyone is!"
"Haha, forget it. Haven't you seen how powerful and majestic she is? She's a dragon slayer, she's even got two first kills, and now she's in the Queen's favor. Aside from Lieyan's men, I think she's the only one who dares to walk around the royal city with such impunity."
"Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. A profit-seeking person like her will sooner or later be kicked down and trampled underfoot. By then, she won't even have time to cry."
All kinds of curses and sarcasm surrounded her ears, and Xia Li finally realized that Bruce's death was actually related to her.
However, Xia Li had long been accustomed to this kind of false accusation and did not care about it. As she said, as long as it did not interfere with her, she could turn a blind eye.
But it is obvious that some people are not satisfied with just pointing fingers behind the back.
As the saying goes, when a wall falls, everyone pushes it. Now she is standing alone in the vortex of public opinion, without even a friend in the same field around her. If we don’t rush up to her and slap her twice and then step on her twice, when will we?
A male player walked out of the crowd with his hands in his pockets and a smile on his face. His ID: Qingqing Xiaohetang. Judging from his equipment, he is a priest.
"Everyone, please be quiet," Xiao Hetang took his hand out of his trouser pocket and made a gesture of silence to the players who were talking. The surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Seemingly satisfied with the result, he smiled and nodded to the surroundings. Finally, he turned his face back to Xia Li and looked at her triumphantly: "Summer Lihua, huh?"
With so many people watching you today, I wonder what else you can do!
However, Xia Li said nothing, just curled the corners of her mouth slightly and stared at him with eyes that couldn't be calmer.
Even though he'd heard about this alchemist's prowess from forums and other people, Xiaochi had never taken the praise seriously. What about good mechanics? What about awesome positioning? It was all just mindless hype!
The person in front of him had been extremely arrogant since the server was launched. He had disliked her for a long time, and today happened to be an opportunity that fell from the sky. He felt it was necessary to teach her a lesson, so he stepped out of the crowd and took the lead.
However, when he really stood in front of her face to face, Xiao Chi finally understood what aura and oppression meant.
Although the other party didn't answer a word, he sensed a hint of warning in her micro-expression. This warning was like a needle piercing the back of his head, and he was so scared that his throat was choked when he originally wanted to kill her arrogance.
But he has already stood up and asked the question. If he backs down now, wouldn't it be too embarrassing?
So he coughed forcefully to give himself courage, then he puffed out his chest and held his chin high, saying in a rather dignified voice, "Xia Lihua, I need you to explain to everyone in front of everyone what happened last night!"
She did it in front of everyone, and explained it to everyone. She was praised as a hero, as if she was afraid that others didn't know that she was the one who killed the goblin.
Xia Li chuckled: "I was in Morgan Hall last night, what do I need to explain?"
Her tone was neither hurried nor slow, and even though she was facing the piercing gazes of several players, she remained calm and composed, not at all flustered.
Seeing that she wasn't going to be soft-peddled, Xiao Hetang's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately turned from a dignified attitude into a barrage of curses: "You're still trying to quibble now? Someone saw it this morning and confirmed that you were the culprit who killed Bruce! The evidence on the forum is irrefutable, don't even think about denying it."
When it comes to watching the fun, what everyone hopes most is that someone will take the lead. As long as someone dares to stand up, they will follow behind the leader and criticize the evildoers together!
So when they heard Xiao Chitang's roar, those who had long had complaints against Xia Li immediately took the opportunity to rush up and shout, and those who had no complaints also wanted to join in the fun. In short, as long as they could witness her fall from the altar with their own eyes, it would feel so good.
The moment she saw the crowd rushing towards her, Xia Li pushed off the ground and leaped out from a low altitude, landing steadily on the stone steps at the entrance of the trading center. She looked down at the crowd and said, "If you really want to be imprisoned in the Royal City Prison, I don't mind giving you a ride."
This is a trading center, and it is located in the royal city fortress. Unlike the Doha restaurant where she was invited to dine before, there are not many patrolmen there, so even if they fought with Long Yan's men, they would have a way to escape.
But it's different here. Royal city soldiers can be seen everywhere outside the trading center. Whoever dares to cause trouble here will be the first to be locked up.
"President, our Lao Yi has never been able to defeat him!"
A male shooter frowned and looked at their president Baofeng cautiously and anxiously.
Bao Feng's expression was as cold as ever, but since this was their second failure in opening a private dungeon, his already icy eyes were even more chilling.
"I understand." His Adam's apple moved up and down. "Let's get out of this fight first."
Five corpses and five living people turned into fragments of light and broke away from the copy.
Leng Bingshuang's face looked very bad. She knew that they had wasted two precious opportunities, and now there were only three left. If they couldn't even conquer the first boss, wouldn't the adventure scroll she bought at a huge cost be wasted?
She was a little afraid to look directly into Baofeng's face.
Baofeng took the initiative to call her name. Leng Bingshuang was shocked and had to bite the bullet and continue: "Baofeng..."
"What do you think is wrong with our fight against Lao Yi this time?"
Without blaming her or getting angry at her, Leng Bingshuang saw Baofeng asking her surprisingly calmly.
She uttered a low "ah," then rolled her eyes and said, "I think we need to add something."
Storm: "What?"
"A potion to replenish stamina."
The priest's unique attack skill, the Holy Arrow, crossed the entire first-floor hall, and the golden light dragged out a gorgeous tail, making the other priests in the trading center salivate.
This is the only output skill of the priest profession. I didn’t expect that this male priest named Qingqing Xiaohetang actually got such a precious skill book.
It's really impressive that he has learned the Holy Arrow at this stage. However, a trace of disdain quickly flashed in Xia Li's eyes. With such a mediocre level, is he qualified to fight with her?
She simply leaped to the side, and the sacred arrow flew forward without a surprise.
Then he stabbed a female player who was walking towards him.
After Xia Li saw the female player's ID clearly, she smiled and said, "Wow~"
After everyone saw the female player’s ID, their faces darkened: We’re in big trouble!
"Catch the man quickly! What are you still standing there for?" Little Pond ran out impatiently. He had already shot someone, and you are a bunch of cowards, what are you afraid of?
"Catch who?" Baofeng, the president of Dark Storm, walked up from the stairs, holding Leng Bingshuang who was shot by an arrow with one hand, while looking coldly at the green pond.
Seeing the other party speechless, his deep eyes narrowed, and his voice dropped several degrees: "I'll ask you again, who to arrest?"
Xiao Chitang had no idea why the people from Dark Storm suddenly came to the trading center. He looked at his arrow and saw that it not only missed the female alchemist, but instead stabbed their vice president. He was so scared that his legs went weak and he collapsed, holding onto the doorpost.
"I'm... I'm sorry, President Baofeng, I didn't mean it!" Xiao Chitang's face was so pale it couldn't be described. He trembled as he looked at the arrow in Leng Bingshuang's chest. Then he turned his gaze and glared fiercely at Xia Li, who was smiling beside him. "President Baofeng! I was just trying to deal with her! She relies on her own greatness to do whatever she wants in the game, and she doesn't care about others. So, I'm going to seek justice for everyone!"
"Oh? It's you again, Summer Pear Blossom. We meet again." Bao Feng tilted his head slightly and glanced at her meaningfully when he heard that.
Xia Li shrugged: "Yes, we meet again."
The onlookers sensed a certain hostility between the big guys through the subtle tone between the two of them, so they stepped back and kept a distance from them, for fear that they would accidentally lose their lives.
Xiao Chitang also sensed the discord between Xia Li and Guild Leader Bao Feng, so he swallowed hard and added, "Guild Leader Bao Feng, she killed Bruce, the most powerful equipment engineer in the Royal City. From now on, we won't be able to find anyone suitable to enhance our equipment!"
After these words were spoken, President Storm's expression turned even colder. He looked down at the person at his feet, his throat as if ice had formed. "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Little Pond had no idea the other person's expression was even more stern. His pupils shrank and he quickly said, "No, no! How dare I!"
Now it was Xia Li's turn to watch the fun. Qingqing Xiaochitang was the epitome of a man who spoke without thinking. Did he think that if he revealed the story of her killing the goblins, Baofeng would be willing to help him? What a joke. If Baofeng could be ordered around by such simple words, then he was completely unworthy of the title of chairman.
"I hope you don't." There was probably no need to get entangled with a small minion. Bao Feng snorted coldly and then turned his gaze back to Leng Bingshuang. "Bear with it for a while. I'll let the priest heal you. Xin Zexi, hurry up and come up."
He gave an order, and a man who was about the same height as him immediately strode up from behind. Judging from his attire, he was also a priest.
Seeing this, Xiaochi finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was nothing for him to do here, so the best thing to do was to get away quickly.
However, the next moment, a team of patrolmen stepped forward, picked him up from the ground without saying a word, handcuffed him, and took him away on the spot.
The person who led the trouble was taken away, and the onlookers immediately put their tails between their legs and quickly left.
The trading center returned to normal order.
The male priest named Xin Zexi was very quick. He quickly dealt with Leng Bingshuang's arrow and healed her wound at the same time.
"Baofeng, I was injured again because of her!"
After recovering, Leng Bingshuang pushed Baofeng a few times, feeling angry and aggrieved. Then, she pointed at Xia Li and cursed, "Xia Lihua, do you know that you're like a poisonous insect, like a plague? You stir up trouble wherever you go! Wherever you are, there's always something bad going on. No wonder everyone hates you and scolds you. Just go to the forums and take a good look. You're flooded with insults!"
"Really?" Xia Li wasn't angry at all. Instead, she smiled and winked at Leng Bingshuang. "Even I don't know. It seems you care about me quite a bit."
"How can you be so shameless!" Leng Bingshuang stared at her in disbelief. She didn't understand how someone could not be angry or feel wronged after being scolded, but instead smile at the person scolding them. If it were her, she would have turned hostile or even hit him a long time ago.
Xia Li spread her hands to show that she was fearless.
Then he jumped down from the stone steps, clapped his hands, and went back into the trading center.
I don’t know what the people from Dark Storm are doing here, but Xia Li was curious for only a second and quickly returned to her mission.
She looked from the first floor to the fifth floor, but there was no sign of Louis.
Then only the sixth floor remains.
Xia Li then ran up in one breath and successfully reached the top floor.
Fortunately, there were not many players on the sixth floor. Xia Li spotted Louis standing in the corner at a glance, so she rushed over and took the initiative to talk to him.
Suddenly, a female voice came from her ear.
"God of Plague, why is it you again?!"
Xia Li looked at Leng Bingshuang, whose eyes were wide open, expressionless: "I was just about to ask you, why is it still you?"
