[Comprehensive] Best Companion

In an hour and a half, Hai Ge just finished buying everyone's presents.Going back to the fountain pool with a relaxed body, I found Ulysses who had been waiting there for a long time, and trotted over, "Sorry for keeping you waiting~"

Seeing Hai Ge's punctual appearance, Ulysses's heart dropped from the moment she went shopping alone, "Have you finished shopping?"

"Yeah." Thinking of the presents for everyone, Hai Ge looked forward to everyone's expressions on Christmas.

"I really want to know what you bought me."

"You'll never expect it, and I'm sure you'll like it."

Ulysses couldn't help chuckling at Hai Ge's mysterious appearance, "Really? Then I'm looking forward to it."

Looking at Ulysses' smile, Hai Ge's originally uneasy heart gradually calmed down.Sure enough, this is the boy's smile!The young man just now was so beautiful that it made people uneasy.

Christmas is coming soon, there is a European-style hotel, and the fireplace in the room is very lively. After buying gifts for everyone with Haige, Ulysses went shopping with other boys Got some Christmas decorations.Now this room is decorated with Christmas atmosphere.

We all gather in one room, beside a small Christmas tree, we sit in a circle and exchange gifts with each other.Ulysses looked at the gauntlet in the box in surprise. The purple gemstone inlaid in the middle improved the performance of the gauntlet a lot. Such equipment might cost a lot of money.

Just as he was about to say something, his words were pushed back by Rebecca beside him.

"Oh~ I really love you, Hai Ge, this hair tie is so beautiful!" While talking, Rebecca immediately tied up her hair with it, and turned around in front of everyone when she was done, "How is it? Isn't it very beautiful?" pretty?!"

"What's the matter, when I inlay the gemstone that Hai Ge gave me on the equipment, it will look good." Not understanding the girl's pursuit of beauty, Ed prefers this gem with a good grade in his hand.

After one round, the atmosphere of Christmas became more intense during the exchange of gifts. After exchanging gifts, Ulysses said with a smile: "Then the next part is next. Now everyone, let's listen to the words that were recorded before the task a few days ago. Bar!"

Upon hearing such a moment, the faces of the members changed, most of them showed both embarrassment and regret.

There is a practice in the guild, every time before going to a dangerous place, everyone will record something like last words.This is not pessimism, but the courage to face unknown dangers that may bring death.

Leaving these words is also to allow the surviving friends to bring the words to their families after they return to reality.Fortunately, no one in the team has left so far, and these recorded words will also be played publicly as a way to find relief after everyone returns safely.

Even if they returned safely every time in the end, everyone would still say what they wanted to say seriously when it was time to record the words next time.Even when they come back, when these secret words are made public, they will be "retaliated" by the people involved in the secret.

For example, right now—

"I'm sorry, Ed, actually after you did the mission of Granny Jin, the baked biscuits you put in the guild's public backpack as a reward were not eaten by those people. Tell you, I'm sorry."

"I thought it was weird. At the beginning, I thought that they would never look down on the biscuit, so I put it in the public backpack! I didn't expect it to be like this! You give me back the biscuit!! You steal!!!" Amway recorded The words were still playing, but Ed had already rushed up, and the next moment, the two rolled into a ball.

That funny look, everyone on the sidelines burst into laughter.

"Everyone is really..." Rebecca spread her hands on the side, but the smile on her lips did not disappear, "The Christmas dinner that I asked the boss to help me should be ready, I'll go and bring it to the room."

Seeing Rebecca stand up, Hai Ge also stood up, "I'll go with you."

Pushing open the door, the two walked around the corner just in time to see another group of people from the same guild walking to the other side.Hai Ge found that there were more unfamiliar faces among the group of people, and he was suddenly puzzled, "Why are there so many new faces?"

Rebecca glanced back and looked away, casually said: "Who knows, these people have been recruiting people these days, as if they want to expand the guild."

The same union, now it seems polarized.Hai Ge is glad that he joined a team full of family warmth, instead of a team with a strange atmosphere on the other side.

"I have always disliked them, from the very first sight. In the eyes of those people, I am above everything else, and the current peaceful coexistence is just because everyone has no conflict of interest." Rebecca's tone was disgusted, with Feeling helpless, "But there was no way at that time. As the level increases, we need more and larger storage space. What's more, the large number of people will also help the guild to upgrade to the security level as soon as possible."

Rebecca's complexion was not very good, her eyelashes drooped, and Hai Ge couldn't see her true emotions clearly, "They are not good people, I'm really afraid that everyone will be in danger because of these people."

"Don't worry! Everyone will live well." Ulysses, who cared about everyone, would think twice before agreeing to let everyone go on missions with a slightly higher risk factor.

Even Hai Ge himself couldn't explain why, but he believed in Ulysses immensely in his heart.Not only Hai Ge, everyone is like this.

After Christmas, the team members discussed moving to the seventh floor. Thinking that everyone needed new training, Ulysses decided to move.Since joining the guild, Hai Ge no longer ran around like a headless chicken. With everyone's experience and teaching, his ability to fight alone has greatly improved.

"Ulysses, don't stay on the seventh floor for so long! We still want to see Mirror Lake."

Facing Amway's request, Ulysses did not indicate whether he agreed or not, "If everyone is making great progress, then we will go."

There are all kinds of monsters on the way to Mirror Lake, and there are many species that will pounce on you even if you don’t mess with them. Although everyone’s abilities are good now, they will inevitably not be in danger when they are besieged by monsters, so even if the members They all wanted to go to Mirror Lake very much, but Ulysses never agreed.

"Although we can't go to Mirror Lake for the time being, we can go to Sakura Hill on the seventh floor. There are not many monsters there, and it is said that the flowers are blooming now."

Hearing Ed's words, Hai Ge couldn't believe it, "Hey~ It's true, but isn't it winter now?"

In the past, when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, Cherry Orchid High School sometimes held a cherry blossom viewing party.At that time, it was also a kind of beautiful enjoyment to see the young ladies of various families proficient in the tea ceremony.

"Speaking of viewing flowers, I suddenly want to eat the sakura mochi from the [-]-chome shop..." After Rebecca's words, everyone fell silent.

Indeed, there is no need to worry about food here, but it does not mean that everything you want will be found here.Reality is where they really exist. When it comes to things about reality, everyone will involuntarily think of their life before entering the game, and then they will be deeply nostalgic.

Sensing that the atmosphere in the team was a bit heavy, Ulysses joked: "Why don't we make a stone mortar to make cherry cakes?"

"Cut~ it's so easy to do!"

"That's right, the flavor of Kyoto is not something we can make casually, let alone red bean paste."

The seventh-floor inn where everyone is temporarily staying is a Japanese-style inn.At the end of the store, there is also a hot spring pool specially for guests to take a bath. After dinner, Haige is holding his clothes and together with Rebecca, ready to go to the hot spring.

At this time, there was no one in the pool, and the two of them wrapped themselves in bath towels and soaked quietly in the water.Mentioning the guild's plans recently, Hai Ge noticed that Rebecca had a worried expression on her face.

"Recently, my brother is discussing with those people about going to the Mist Autumn Valley on the tenth floor." Rebecca, who couldn't hold back, confided her worries to Hai Ge, "Those people said that there are new secrets in the Mist Autumn Valley maze area." If the room can be opened, there will be a lot of rewards, including very good weapons and equipment."

Hai Ge had heard this news a long time ago, and discovered it by accident when the strategy team was there, but at that time the main destination of the strategy team was the boss's room, and the secret room left just after a glance. That's all.

"If it's true, won't everyone flock there?"

"Some people also went, but they didn't come back, and no one knows what happened." Rebecca waved her hands, and ripples were drawn on the surface of the hot spring water, "Those people invited brother, saying they wanted to go and see. "

"You know it's dangerous, why do you still want to go?" Understanding Rebecca's worry, Hai Ge comforted her: "Don't worry, Ulysses won't let us go to dangerous places."

Rebecca shook her head, her face was even more worried, "I'm not worried about this, I'm worried about those people, and I have other purposes."

"Remember when I told you that I didn't like those people? I once saw that when they were besieged by monsters, they pushed out a person in the team who couldn't hide to attract the monster's attention, and then...they ran away."

"That's obviously their teammate, how can... how can..." Up to now, Rebecca can still remember the desperate look of that person at that time, and the next moment, she was attacked again and again by the surrounding monsters.

Before disappearing, his eyes were full of unwillingness.

Rebecca's voice was choked up, and she was about to be unable to continue, "Those people are not good people, I think my brother said, but at that time, if we didn't merge with them, we couldn't survive at all, but, I don't want us to... ..."

Hai Ge didn't know what he had to do to comfort her, but after hesitating, he stroked Rebecca's back lightly, "It's okay, we will definitely not have an accident."

Rebecca always looked very vigilant whenever those people appeared.For such a long time, Rebecca, who has been watching the other party with worry and wanting to protect everyone, will lose control of her emotions and collapse.

"Perhaps, you can tell Ulysses your concerns. Even if we will revert to a small guild in the end, we can add people and expand it."

Rebecca's frowning eyebrows gradually loosened, and some hope appeared in her eyes.Yes, now is not the time when the situation is urgent, they can quit, and they can re-select guild members.

"Excuse me~"

The paper sliding door was pulled open, and a female voice came in.Through the mist, Haige and Rebecca looked at the girl standing at the door.

The author has something to say: There is a problem with the Internet at home, and I just connected to it now, but fortunately it has not been interrupted. ●▽●

We're going to let Josna come out and shake kekekeke
