Chapter 527: A Bar from the Qingyue Goddess
The next day, Lovely, accompanied by knights, gave a speech in front of the people.

"Regarding the recent rumors about the fire in the capital, I think we should not take it lightly..."

Her approach did not stand on its own.

Instead, based on Luo Wei's words, she reminded the public to be cautious and not to think that this was just a rumor. She also received some concerning developments. She did not mention the prophecy, but she also conveyed the message from the perspective of a princess who thought there might be something wrong after receiving the news.

Such scenes were played simultaneously in all the taverns in Melendell.

Goodman looked at the projection on the screen, then turned to look at Lowe and said, "Can you really...?"

He held up a leftover bone on the table and shook it in a gesticulating manner.

Luo Wei: "..."

Luo Wei said with a frown on his face: "She just looks like a little devil, but she is not a real little devil. Does an adult woman who has not grown up in appearance not deserve love?"

Goodman looked at him and smiled.

"Why are you so anxious to refute?" He shook the bone again and looked back, "Could it be that you have recently..."

Goodman had a look that said, "Although I don't understand your habits, I understand men."

Luo Wei pushed the glass of beer next to him and said, "Drink your beer."

Goodman smiled, put down the bone in his hand, took his glass of wine and drank it consciously.

Luo Wei shook his head at the look on his face, then looked up at the figure in the magic projection. In fact, this kid knew a lot. When he saw him like that yesterday, his face immediately turned red and he started to scold him as a perverted, shameless scum, then he ran away in a hurry, covering his body.

"Of course, I am not just talking here. I have confirmed that the prices of fire extinguishers and water sprinklers in the capital have skyrocketed in the past two days. Please do not worry. I will import these materials through channels across the continent and sell them to the public at cost price. I will also arrange for knights to conduct on-site operation exercises. I hope that all merchants will also consider this."

Listening to the words in the magic projection, Goodman looked up after finishing his drink.

"Anyway, your princess is really capable."

"Ah, yes." Luo Wei took a sip of wort and did not deny it.

"Haha... you are so lucky to have a woman like this willing to share the responsibility with you."

Luo Wei didn't bother to pay attention to his sarcasm. He already knew that what he did was inappropriate. Although each of them might have such feelings to a certain extent, only the princess had more possibilities brought by communication at the strategic level. This ability could not be quantified like combat level and craftsmanship, and there was no specific level to define it. But in fact, there were some important parts that he had only communicated with her. For example, regarding the fire in the palace, Vimir and Ayin still didn't know what happened in detail.

She didn't want to be just a princess protected by him.

He indeed received this kindness.

"And then?" Goodman asked as he ate his barbecue. "What are your plans?"

The list of the top eight in the elite competition has been announced. It is foreseeable that the whole city will be involved in fire response preparations in the next few days, but Red Needle Man's actions will not stop there.

"I should be the one asking you this question," Luo Wei said impatiently while peeling a shrimp, "Are you really not going to do anything?"

"Haha, I've been waiting for you to say that!" Goodman put down the barbecue and suddenly stood up with a mysterious look on his face, "Come with me to a place."

In the afternoon, Luo Wei followed the other party to a canal in the church district.

"right here."

Goodman said this and began to dig in the ground.

Luo Wei raised his head and looked around, and received a mocking response from the other party: "Don't worry, Qingyue is watching us from the sky, no one will notice us."

In a moment, Goodman dug a walking stick out of a deep hole in the ground and handed it to Rowe.

"What the hell is this?" Luo Wei frowned and asked.

"The men of the other world fell," said Goodman proudly, "just up here on the bridge. I attacked one of them last night."

"??"

After Goodman explained, Luo Wei realized that this guy had been asking Qingyue to help search in recent days, and finally succeeded last night.

"Are you sure this isn't a trap that the other party deliberately set for you?" Luo Wei asked doubtfully.

"Don't worry," Goodman seemed to know what he would say, "I asked Qingyue to come down and check it out. There is absolutely no problem. It's not that the other party doesn't want to come back to get it, but... you know."

It's a fishing expedition, right?

It was deliberately buried in such a close place. People from the third world would have no courage to come back and take it.

Luo Wei held the short stick upside down and looked at it, and he couldn't help but want to complain.

What the ancient gods send to others are all gifts.

Everything you sent is evidence.

"So, you think this thing is very important?" He looked at it, not quite understanding it. It looked like an ordinary cane inlaid with magic gems, but it was much heavier than wood.

"I don't know if it's crucial or not," Goodman responded, "but I was able to score by aiming at the direction the other party was subconsciously protecting. Do you understand?"

What a monster you are.

Luo Wei was too lazy to say anything more. To be on the safe side, he put the cane into his cloak instead of putting it outside the boundary. It was not because he was worried that the thing would pollute the outside world, but because he was worried that if he put it inside, the function of the cane would be accidentally deleted.

"It seems like we don't care about anything," Goodman suddenly patted the dirt on his hands and said, "In fact, the dispute between us and the other world has already started. This is what Qingyue asked me to tell you. As for the matter of the second continent, she will help you at the critical moment."

Luo Wei shrugged and was not surprised at all.

How could the present God discover the existence of the third world later than him? But how dare they directly enter the present God's first continent? So the so-called dispute must be the present God trying every means to cause trouble for the third world. However, as for breaking the barriers of the world, it may not be so easy for the gods who rule this world to do it.

To some extent, Goodman also meant to tell him that the current God had no time to deal with this side, and if he really had any problems he could just look for Qingyue.

There is really no reason for Luo Wei to be disgusted.

She is a second-level god among the current gods. If she is willing to help, it will be much easier to capture Chaham.

"Then...how should I contact her?" Luo Wei said hesitantly, "I can't always have to come to you first, right?" "Well..."

Goodman also showed a thoughtful expression, but before the two of them could get stuck there, the ground beside them turned green and a book with a moon engraved on it appeared there.

Looks like a... fairy tale book?

"What Qingyue girl meant," Goodman tried to interpret, "If you want to find her, just write it down in any way you want, and she will know."

"Will it be useful if I tear off the pages?" Luo Wei walked over and picked up the book.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like the kind of fable book you read to children before bed, except that there are no words written in it.

"Well... she said it worked," Goodman said with cold sweat, "but she didn't seem to like it..."

Don't like people tearing up her books?

Luo Wei curled his lips. Who would care about this at the critical moment? However, he quickly tried it out. He first put the book into the ripple, then took it out and quickly wrote words on it with magic.

"Hello there."

After a while, a line appeared below it with beautiful handwriting.

“——”

Luo Wei felt too helpless to complain, so this could be considered a response, right?
It's understandable that the goddess doesn't want to see him because she has to be a little bit cool, but what does it mean that she's avoiding me? I won't eat her.

After collecting the two things that he had barely managed to snatch from the current god, Luo Wei was about to meet up with Luo Fuli, but he ran into a knight who was looking for him based on the intelligence.

"What's wrong?" Seeing that the knight's expression was not right, Luo Wei asked in a deep voice.

"Fire...!" the knight whimpered.

"what?"

The knight put his hands on his knees, swallowed hard as he gasped for breath, and then he blurted out what he wanted to convey.

"The Royal Arena is on fire!!"

……

When Luo Wei arrived, Luo Fuli and Ayining were already at the scene.

Thick smoke was billowing from the interior of the entire arena. The fire had actually been brought under control, but this also allowed us to infer how large the original affected area was.

“It’s a provocation.”

After seeing him coming, Lovely turned around and said coldly.

Luo Wei quickly heard the details of the situation from them. The fire started from the underground space. When the outside noticed it, it had already turned into a sea of ​​fire. If Archbishop Meisilido had not come to visit the wounded and check on the work of the priests, the fire would probably have spread from inside to the outside competition stands.

Fortunately, there is no game today.

Otherwise, if it happens on the field, the trampling and pushing caused by the commotion alone may result in considerable casualties.

"Where's the fire starter?" Luo Wei frowned and looked at the knight in charge. "I remember there was nothing in the contestant channel that could be burned."

"That's right!" The knight responded with a puzzled look on his face, "We didn't intend for the players to feel that the atmosphere was too lazy, so the objects are basically made of steel and stone."

At this time, Rowe saw Gavin being carried out on a stretcher, and immediately jumped down from the stands.

"What's going on in there?" he asked as he walked over to the stretcher.

"Ahem..." Gavin coughed twice and looked at him calmly, as if he was looking for someone to listen to him. "The fire started in an instant. I was lying in the treatment room with other wounded people, and the fire came out of the air right in front of us."

"Are you sure it came directly from the air and you didn't smell any strange smell before?" Luo Wei asked.

"I'm sure." Gavin looked at him with certainty, "When it happened, there were candles lit at the door and beside our bed, but the fire didn't come from there."

"Okay, leave the rest to me, you can rest assured."

Luo Wei stopped following the other party's stretcher and stopped where he was, already having some guesses in his mind.

It was not an accidental fire, not caused by gas ignition.

There is only one answer.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a movement in his cloak. After taking it out, he found that it was the cane that Goodman had given him not long ago. At this moment, it was slightly cracked and emitting light from inside.

Goodman also came to him from the surroundings, nodded and said, "Qingyue has also checked, there are no suspicious targets nearby."

Then he also noticed the changes in the cane.

"What is this?"

Luo Wei did not respond, but followed the direction of the cane. The two of them came to a hall in the middle of the arena where the smoke was gradually dissipating.

He raised the short staff in his hand, and the air vibrated for a moment. Then the cracked part of the staff began to spin in a spiral, with countless red runes dancing inside.

Then a red gem-shaped oval sphere appeared out of thin air, lost its luster and fell into Luo Wei's hands.

"It seems that because of your behavior, the other party has simply given up on this place." Luo Wei said, holding the egg-like object.

The pattern on it was very similar to the red fragments he found during the attack in Upper Town, but it looked much more complicated.

"You mean..." Goodman pondered for a moment.

Luo Wei closed his eyes and turned around holding the egg.

"If this is the real culprit that caused the fire in the capital——"

"Then there are probably countless more of these in Melendell."
