Moments before dawn, the camp of the Warren garrison was just busy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Mary sat at a low table, the oil lamp on the table was the only light source in the tent, and even if it was the largest to the maximum, it was still very dim, especially behind Mary, because of the obscuration, there was a large shadow.

On the bed, James VIII was still asleep.

After Qin Ran repelled the first wave of grassland cavalry yesterday, the old king almost fainted and fell asleep.

He was so tired.

Facing Jenny. James, the old king was already exhausted.

The ensuing steppe cavalry made him even more haggard.

In fact, since coming to the Thunder Fortress, from the beginning of the rebuilding of the Thunder Fortress to the gathering of troops that can be gathered, it has been handled by this old king.

Even with the help of others, the old king only rested for two or three hours in a few days, which was more and more depleted to the old king's already overwhelmed body.

Mary could clearly see that even in his slumber, her nominal father's face was pale.

It was as if the flame of life was about to be extinguished at any moment.

Frowning, Mary pressed the blanket on the other party a little tighter.

Although she still can't face her father, she feels that the other party is really pitiful in her heart.

It should have been the prime of life, but he was already dying.

The whole life is like a puddle of ink.

It's dark everywhere, and there's no color at all.

The other person is unhappy!

Mary could be very sure of that.

In front of her, it is just a forced smile, and when she is alone, she will sigh.

"The King's Duty?"

Mary muttered softly.

With such a living example in front of her, the girl suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

James VIII had informed all his close ministers and advisors that she had become Warren's rightful heir the day before the Prairie army appeared.

When James VIII died, she would inherit the throne.

It's just that......

The girl hesitated.

Looking at the appearance of James VIII, the girl was not only happy about the succession to the throne, but more sad.

At this moment, she thought of Fort Swut.

She wanted to go back there, the place where she was born and raised.

But then, Mary's chest tightened.

She remembered.

Fort Swut has also been destroyed.

Her mother buried herself in the dirt as well.

The girl's eyes were reddish.

When she was alone, she took off the mask of maturity, and she was still a half-old child.

But she didn't let the tears flow.

Because, she knows that it is useless to shed tears.

Tears didn't get what she wanted.

It will only make her more and more unbearable.

Mary reached out and grabbed the hilt of the [Sword of Thorns], which was a relic left to her by her mother, because of the weight and length, Mary was not able to use this sword normally, but under Qin Ran's reminder, she would take this sword with her at any time.

"Communicate with the 'Sword'?"

"Feel the mind of the sword?"

Mary could not yet comprehend the meaning of these words, but that did not prevent her from doing so.

Because, she trusts Qin Ran.

Because, when she thought of Qin Ran, her heart was hot.

That warm feeling made her ignore loneliness and become stronger and stronger.

Airplanes!

The long sword in its scabbard hummed.

Unusually transient.

When Mary tried to confirm again, it was already gone, making her think it was nothing more than an illusion.

But some people don't think so.

In his rapid breath, a figure emerged from the shadows, raising his hand and grabbing at the Sword of Thorns, while the other hand towards Mary's throat.

Mary stayed still.

It was as if I was stupefied by the scene in front of me.

The raider let out a sinister laugh.

It's so easy!

This task is too easy!

Not only is it easy, but it's also rewarding!

Look at this long sword, it must be a weapon of inheritance!

"Bring it!"

The extraordinary excitement in his heart made the raider can't help but make a sound, the voice was slightly sharp, but then the sharp sound was only the sound of inhalation.

Moreover, it is the kind that does not have much air intake, only air out.

Even, the sound of air is getting weaker and weaker.

A powerful palm had appeared on the Raider's neck at some point.

The slender fingers tightened, and the raider was suffocated.

His face is purple and his tongue is sticking out.

But this could not hide the shock in the eyes of the other party.

Why are you still here?!

Shouldn't you have been led away?!

The other party couldn't ask, but the thought in his heart kept turning up.

Mary stood up and walked to Qin Ran's side.

"If the people of the Snake Sect really only have such intelligence, no wonder they will be destroyed by Holly!"

"Tie up Bosco with great fanfare and come towards Thunder Fortress...... As long as it is a normal person, you will notice the cattiness! ”

"Or do you think that because of the steppe people, this place has already panicked to the point where there is no common-sense judgment?"

Mary asked with a low snort.

The raider who was choked by Qin Ran's neck couldn't answer at all.

The feeling of suffocation not only deprives the other party of their mobility, but also puts the other person's life in jeopardy.

Qin Ran looked at the captive in his hand, and his doubts were even worse.

It's so easy!

The situation in front of him is really so simple that it is beyond his expectations.

As Mary said, as long as you are a normal person, you will notice the cattiness.

This is completely incompatible with an organization that has gone through the downfall and redeveloped in the shadows of Raldry.

It's a bit like a kid's house.

"He's just a little minion, look at the 'naïve' principal!"

With doubts in his heart, Qin Ran walked towards the back of the camp after he finished speaking.

Mary walked side by side.

……

It worked!

Sure enough, the Warren defenders had lost their due judgment under the oppression of the steppe people.

Fink looked at Qin Ran in front of him and sneered in his heart.

Fink, who had been thinking about how to open the situation, didn't expect Tosta's idiot-like assassination to be able to find out the truth of Warren's defenders.

It was so unexpected and surprising.

"This time I'm going to ......"

Fink was still thinking about something.

But immediately his eyes burst out.

What did he see?

Qin Ran!

Another Qin Ran walked towards him.

Moreover, Qin Ran is still holding Bob in his hands!

Without thinking about it, Fink took Bosko hostage and headed for the horses.

Mission failed!

The rest is ...... Safely evacuated!

Fink's skills and code of conduct as an assassin had long been memorized.

And, that's exactly what it does.

But 'Qin Ran', who was standing in front of him, smiled.

Fink, who was holding Bosco hostage, felt that the world was spinning, his eyes were dark, and then the whole person stood in place stupidly.

"Master!"

'Bloody Mary' bowed to Qin Ran.

With Qin Ran's gesture, the evil spirit turned into nothingness.

The surrounding soldiers, including Mary, all looked at this scene in surprise, and those soldiers looked at Qin Ran's gaze, and their awe became more and more intense.

Feeling this gaze, Qin Ran strode towards Fink.

"I need a tent!"

After picking up Fink, Qin Ran said very quickly. (To be continued.) )
