Chapter XXVIII

When Qin Ran saw the castle defenders chasing after him, Lawlessness also saw it later.

Syllable!

"Crow's beak!"

"What a damn thing!"

Lawless immediately slapped himself in the mouth and cursed in a low voice.

Then, without hesitation, the three of them turned over and rode on, and proceeded according to the established route.

As for the last battle?

If the number of castle defenders chasing after him was a little less, Qin Ran might choose to do so.

But with a cavalry of hundreds of men, needless to say, relying on a single volley of bows and arrows, he had to flee in the desert.

What's more, he saw that the opponent's war horse was not a simple bow and arrow, but a crossbow arrow!

Compared to bows and arrows, which require both arms, crossbow arrows are undoubtedly more powerful and accurate.

Even on a war horse.

In addition to the crossbow arrows, Qin Ran also keenly noticed that the armor of these castle defenders was a little different from the castle defender armor he had seen.

The coat of arms on the chest is the same.

But just like that, the rest, whether it is hand armor or shin armor, has some strange protrusions, which look very dim in the reflection of the morning light.

"What is this?"

Qin Ran frowned slightly, turned his head and looked at the pursuers carefully.

He didn't think there would be anything unnecessary on his armor.

For life-saving armor, no one will come to nonsense.

Even the most stupid people know the horror of death.

Suddenly, Qin Ran's gaze looked at these chasing horses.

Each one was tall and strong, more than a lap larger than the horses they were riding, and they had long limbs and were even more powerful in running.

This time the chase has caught up with them a lot of distance.

What made Qin Ran even more concerned was that the war horses they were riding had become out of breath with this sprint, but the war horses ridden by the pursuers behind them had not changed at all.

Armor is different from that of ordinary soldiers.

The horse he rode was tall and strong, good at sprinting, and full of endurance......

"One of the three major armed forces under the command of Grand Duke Merck: the Knights of the 'Wind'!"

Qin Ran suddenly guessed the identity of the pursuer.

And with the emergence of this speculation, Qin Ran became more and more sure of his previous thoughts on Hans's main quest.

"The time limit in Hans's main quest represents the time of Archduke Merck's victory!"

"Only when the battle situation is stable, Archduke Merck may send the 'Wind' Knights!"

"However, there will be at least some time lag when the news of the rebellion in the castle reaches Archduke Merck, why is it so fast?"

A doubt disappears, and a new one appears.

Qin Ran's brows locked together again.

He was sure that the Knights of the 'Tempest' must have appeared on the orders of the Grand Duke.

Because, Archduke Merck is the head of the 'Tempest' Knights.

And the Knights of the 'Tempest' only obeyed the orders of the Grand Duke.

This is especially true after sending out nearly half of the Knights of the Tempest.

The three major armed forces under the command of Grand Duke Merck, in terms of numbers, the 'Barrier' infantry regiment has the largest number, reaching nearly 1,000 people, the 'Tempest' knights are second, with about 200 people, and the 'Gift' squad has the smallest number, only a dozen.

But that doesn't explain why the Knights of the Tempest are here.

"Could it be that Archduke Merck knew about the rebellion a long time ago?"

"Impossible!"

"If he had known about the rebellion, he would not have allowed his young son to be killed by his second son—according to Hans, Grand Duke Merck loved his young son very much!"

A guess appeared in Qin Ran's mind, but it was denied by Qin Ran the next moment.

And as the 'Wind' Knights chased closer and closer, there was no time for Qin Ran to think more.

He turned around and informed Lawless and Hans of the identity of his pursuers.

"The Knights of the Tempest?"

"How did they end up here?"

Lawlessness and Hans exclaimed together, and Hans was even more stunned.

"I'm wondering why they're here, but one thing I'm sure of is that with the speed of our mounts, they won't be able to outrun the Knights of the Wind!"

Qin Ran said.

"We have to find a way to cause them a little bit of trouble!"

"I'll stop them for a moment, 2567 and Hans you run first!"

"Remember, go straight through the Pilgrimage Forest and complete the main quest, don't stay long!"

Lawless said categorically.

"Count me in!"

Qin Ran spoke out at the same time, and then, he directly pulled off the reins that were originally hanging on the lawless saddle and hung it on Hans's saddle.

"Hans, I'll hand over my war horse to you, if you ride alone, at least don't worry about speed!"

"Don't make that look, you're the 'main culprit'!"

"You're good enough to get the attention of the Knights of the Wind, that's why you need to run faster!"

"And, I'm here for my side quest!"

Qin Ran looked at Hans, who was excited, and immediately opened the taskbar.

[Discover the side quest: Chaser!] 】

[Chaser: The Knights of the Tempest, who were supposed to be on the front line, suddenly appeared behind you, and you now need to make a choice, whether to continue to escape, or turn around and fight, looking for a better opportunity!] But either way, you need to remember that what you have to do is to escape the Knights of the Wind! 】

(Note: Killing a member of the Knights of the Pursuing 'Hurricane' will increase the rating)

As he guessed the identity of the Knights of the Tempest, a hint for a side quest suddenly appeared.

Qin Ran understood that this was because his main quest was only [Escape from the Principality of Merck], and if it was lawlessness and Hans's own main quest had elements of being 'pursued', such a side quest would definitely not appear.

Again, Qin Ran sighed at the benefits of participating in high copies with a low number of copies.

At the same time, looking at the annotation in the side quest [Killing the pursuing 'Wind' Knights will increase the evaluation], Qin Ran had already made a decision in his heart.

After obtaining visible benefits, Qin Ran will naturally implement the original concept: not only to complete the main quest, but also to overcomplete the side quests and title quests as much as possible.

Therefore, when Lawless proposed to 'block' the pursuers, Qin Ran immediately echoed it.

"But, but ......"

"We are the ones who have been hired, paid a commission, and signed a contract to do everything in our power to protect you from fulfilling the contract!"

"Now, it's time for us to fulfill our contract!"

"Don't worry!"

"Neither I nor 2567 will risk their lives to delay time for you, so there will definitely not be much time for you, you have to speed up and run!"

Hans had something else to say, but was interrupted by Lawlessness.

Then, Lawless stretched out his hand to Qin Ran.

Qin Ran grabbed Lawless's hand, and as soon as he used his strength, he jumped behind Lawless.

The next moment, Qin Ran and Lawless broke away from the fleeing team.

He turned his horse's head and looked at his pursuers.

Hans rode alone and continued to rush forward.

"Go back, I'll invite you to drink!"

"Make sure you come back safely!"

Hans's voice could be heard in the distance.

"Tsk, this wine doesn't taste good!"

Lawlessness sighed.

"Are you ready?"

Lawless clenched the [Sharp Thorn] in his hand, and then handed the [Piercing Spear] to Qin Ran.

"Take it!"

"It's better than empty-handed!"

Lawless said.

Qin Ran took the [Piercing Spear] without politeness.

Although he didn't have the corresponding skills, but with enough strength and a round wave, Qin Ran would still be able to.

"Two people hit a team of hundreds of people, and I feel excited when I think about it!"

Lawless took a deep breath and adjusted his state.

"I'd be even more excited if I could get in with some grenades!"

Qin Ran rolled his eyes.

If he can enter this dungeon world fully armed, the situation in front of him is completely worthless, and even the rebellion in the castle is sure to be reversed.

But it's just a matter of thinking about it.

After all, the difficulty with this special dungeon world is that players can't bring more equipment into it.

All crises are based on this difficulty.

It's like the 'Wind' Knights in front of him, if Qin Ran has three in his hands, no, even if it is two grenades, it will become a different situation.

"Don't be superstitious about gunpowder weapons!"

"Some of the dungeons' restrictions are far greater than you think of 2567, and even if there will be compensation, if you are not mentally prepared, you will become scrambling!"

Lawlessness reminded Qin Ran.

"You mean ......"

Qin Ran was stunned and asked subconsciously.

But Lawlessness did not answer.

The arrows that came made Lawlessness have to deal with it with all his attention.

Whoosh!

The arrows fired by the Knights of the Tempest showed no mercy.

Densely packed, it's like a hornet gathering to rise.

But such a dense arrow attack did not hurt Qin Ran, lawlessness or even the war horse in the slightest.

The [Sharp Thorn] that danced rapidly in Lawless Wu's hand brought up one sword shadow after another, and the sword shadows were layered on top of each other, forming a shield in the breath.

Keep all arrows out.

And, under the control of lawlessness, the war horse moved forward at a rapid pace.

Almost against the arrows, the distance between the two sides was shortened.

From the sky, it looked like a meteor with a metallic luster, rushing into a torrent of black arrows, cutting through thorns and thorns.

Although it was not the first time he had seen a lawless advanced sword technique, no matter which time he saw it, Qin Ran felt extremely amazed.

"This kind of offensive and defensive integration, especially good at sword skills with less strikes, at least at the rare level."

"Even, Legendary Level!"

"Lawless has always shown that he is good at gunpowder heavy weapons, but he has a set of sword skills that are at least rare, plus his previous reminder ......"

"Sure enough, as the number of copies increases, the restrictions on gunpowder weapons become?"

Qin Ran had such a guess in his heart.

However, the speculation in his heart did not hinder Qin Ran's actions.

He clenched the spear in his hand and stared at the Knights of the Wind, who were close at hand.

The rain of arrows is no longer dense.

The Knights of the Wind, who had made one salvo, would be difficult to fire a second salvo again at the current distance.

To put it simply, it's their turn to fight back!

Qin Ran changed from a sitting position to a standing position, and then jumped forward suddenly.

"Up!"

The lawless left hand supported the soles of Qin Ran's feet.

Suddenly, Qin Ran's already extremely fast speed was a little faster.

Rushed into the ranks of the 'Tempest' Knights with lightning speed.

The spear in his hand, as if sweeping through a thousand armies, swung out in a round.
