"They didn't go head-to-head with Tauber at all, but captured dozens of villagers and used this as a threat, and the player organized a rescue operation, which failed." Bai Xian said a little annoyed.

Lu Kuan frowned, and then he understood what was going on.

According to common sense, with Tauber's strength, unless all the regular troops of the Lava Fortress attack with numerical superiority, or simply attack the city lord of the Lava Fortress and the senior mages in the mage tower, with the strength of Tauber, he will definitely be invincible.

"Then the current situation of Qingshui Village ......"

"For the time being, an agreement has been reached that it is okay for Qingshuizhai to fish in the big lakes and swamps, but you need to pay taxes,"

Dai Guang's tone revealed anger, and he said hatefully: "These grandsons, when the fish-people were flooded in the past, I didn't see them send troops to help, and when it came time to pick up cheap, they ran faster than anyone else!" TM's ......"

As a few people said a word, Lu Kuan gradually understood the details of the whole thing, and at this time, everyone had already come to the middle of the city, looking up at the tall totem pillar, and the blue light and shadow that kept escaping from the top of the residence.

"Lao Lu, if only you were still here, you would definitely be able to think of a way to deal with those ruffians." Dai Guang sighed.

"Yes, when we were on a mission, we heard Tauber say more than once that it would be nice if the 'old deer' was here." Chen Shuang also agreed.

When Lu Kuan heard this, his heart couldn't help but move.

If he is oppressed ruthlessly, with Tao Bo's character and the safety of everyone in Qingshui Village, will he consider leaving the Banyan Grassland?

As soon as this thought appeared in his heart, Lu Kuan's mind became completely active, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it became.

The relationship between me and Tao Bo is different, maybe it can really be done! The crux of the matter is to what extent the people of Qingshui Village are now oppressed.

"What are you thinking, why are you distracted?" Chen Shuang shook his hand in front of Lu Kuan and asked with a smile.

Lu Kuan came back to his senses and smiled: "It's nothing, let's go, I'll take you to the Temple of Dom, there are a lot of tasks there, you can start from there and slowly increase your prestige." ”

……

Dai Guang and the three girls are already a very mature small group, and they have Lu Kuan's face, so the four of them are very comfortable in Rune City, and when they heard that several people will settle in Rune City for a long time in the future, the NPCs are even more happy.

The people brought by the old deer are definitely trustworthy~

Therefore, in the city, Dai Guang's tasks cannot be completed at all, and because there is no competition, the efficiency is extremely high, and by the way, even the popularity of Dai Guang's live broadcast room has directly increased several times.

"You hurry up and earn your prestige until you can go out with the army on a mission, and explore new maps in the field is the biggest task for you." Lu Kuan left a few people talking, and he had already returned to the teleportation array again and flew directly to the lava castle.

The white light faded and the foreground began to reveal itself, months had passed since the last time it had left the Lava Keep.

The dry air in my memory has blown by, but it has lost the previous heat, and the autumn in "Echoes of the Gods" is not far away.

Lu Kuan didn't waste time, he left the teleportation array directly, rode on the radish and went straight to the north gate, but the players around him were shocked.

Lava Fort is different from Riptide Harbor, the latter is connected to Iron Boots City and the teleportation array, and it is not surprising that a figure appears in the teleportation array, but Lava Fort is an isolated small city, and the world teleportation array has not yet been opened, how can a player pass it back?

And when Lu Kuan summoned the fierce velociraptor in appearance, everyone was boiling, and exclamations rang out.

"Wow! It's an old deer! ”

"How did he come to Lava Keep......"

However, before everyone's exclamations fell, the velociraptor had already galloped out like the wind, disappearing into the interface in the blink of an eye, and even if there were players who seemed to be following, there was no way to start.

Lu Kuan skillfully pointed to the direction and soon set foot on the boundary of the banyan grassland.

Compared with the original empty scene, the players leveling up in this vicinity have become in groups, especially the anglers who are guarding the river and fishing by the swamp, almost all over the riverbank, and the abundant fishery resources here have been known to the majority of players, and have become very popular.

There was a velociraptor walking, and after a while, Lu Kuan had already seen the gate of Qingshui Village in the distance.

However, at this time, in addition to the guards of the stockade guarding the door, there were also lava fortress troops wearing full-body armor, and these soldiers stood on the periphery of Qingshui Village in twos and threes, and they were not close, but such blatant monitoring undoubtedly made everyone in Qingshui Village feel like bones in their throats, and they were even more uncomfortable.

These are not the guards of the Lava Castle, but the NPCs of the nature of wild monsters, and the player can take the task of slaughtering them in Qingshui Village, but this is also a signal: the relationship between Qingshui Village and Lava Castle has reached the point of tension.

Lu Kuan rode a radish and quickly came to the gate, this time Lu Kuan did not disguise, the guard at the door obviously remembered Lu Kuan, and immediately greeted him.

"Dear adventurer, long time no see!" The guard bowed slightly to Lu Kuan.

"yes,"

Lu Kuan nodded at the other party and smiled: "Is Tao Bo here?" I've got something to look for him. ”

"It's in the chamber, but it's ......"

The guard replied, a hint of hesitation on his face, "The messenger of the Lava Fortress is also inside......"

"Oh? That's just right~" Lu Kuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then smiled.

……

In the meeting hall of Qingshui Village.

"No way!"

Tao Bo's angry voice came out, faintly angry: "We Qingshui Village have lived in the banyan grassland for generations, let us move to other places?" Don't even think about it! ”

At this time, the little old man's face was pale, the green tendons on his head were slightly protruding, and he pursed his lips and glared at the comer.

Standing in front of Tao Bo was a middle-aged man in a gorgeous costume, with a beard and a proud look on his face.

"Tauber, you have figured it out, at this time the lord's order, not an opinion,"

The man in the fancy costume snorted coldly, and shook the scroll in his hand at Tao Bo: "A radius of a hundred miles is the territory of the Lava Castle, you dare to disobey the edict of the lord, do you want to openly oppose the Lava Castle and fight against the army?" ”

As soon as the man's words came out, not to mention Tao Bo, all the guards in the council hall couldn't listen to it, and they all surrounded them in an uproar, glaring angrily at the man in Chinese clothes, and even some of them pulled out their weapons in a hurry, and their hatred was monstrous!

Seeing this scene, the man's breath in the costume couldn't help but tighten, revealing a nervous look, and his right hand subconsciously touched his waist.

"Stand down!"

Tao Bo frowned, waved his left hand, and the guards couldn't help but stop, then lowered their heads and silently retreated to their original positions, and the man in Chinese clothes secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Excellency, please tell the Great Lord that Qingshui Village has sunk into the lava castle, and I just want to be able to live in peace, as long as we stay here, I can accept the tax rate adjustment he proposed earlier." Tauber said word by word.

The man in fancy clothes smiled contemptuously: "The imperial decree has been issued, how can it be changed?" A week later, if you can still see human figures in Qingshui Village, don't blame our army of Lava Castle for being killed, and there will be no chickens and dogs left at that time! ”
