The war between the Duchy of Merck and the Duchy of Titan came to an end.

As depicted in the knight's biographical novel, the Duchy of Titan, as the invader's side, was defeated.

It's really something that everyone is looking forward to.

Look at the soldiers of the Duchy of Merck, each of them has a smile on their face.

They didn't know how much compensation the Duchy of Titan would have to pay afterwards, or how much they would receive as a reward.

However, they knew they could go home.

Of course, you still need to finish what is in front of you.

On either side of Afterglow Canyon, two stone watchtowers have been reinforced, and at the exit to the Duchy of Titans at the end of the canyon, an equally stone wall is being repaired.

As the greatest barrier against the Duchy of Titan, the role of the 'Afterglow Barrier' is self-evident.

Even the peasants in the principality understood, let alone the soldiers.

The existence of the 'Afterglow Barrier' has reduced their casualties by at least thirty percent.

Therefore, every soldier who participated in the construction was unusually serious.

After all, it's a matter of life and death.

Hiding under the mountain stream on the left side of the Afterglow Canyon, Qin Ran couldn't see such a situation.

However, when he first arrived at Afterglow Canyon two days ago, what he had seen and heard was enough for him to guess something.

Therefore, he is not interested in what is going on there.

He kept an eye on Ferrin and Moldler.

"Another great victory!"

"Your Highness is invincible!"

Felin stood on a rock and sighed.

By this time, Ferrin had taken off his hood and mask, revealing a long, narrow, shriveled face, loose skin, and white hair

"Singing praises is also a compulsory course for dogs!"

The eldest son of the Grand Duke, who was seriously wounded with his hands and feet tied, was hanging from a tree, his expression full of mockery.

"Thanks for the compliment!"

Fei Lin smiled and bowed.

It seems that he is really receiving a compliment.

The eldest son of the Grand Duke sneered a few times and stopped talking.

Qin Ran had seen such a scene countless times in the past two days.

Every time, Qin Ran felt terrible about Fei Lin's ability to control his emotions.

The other party doesn't seem to be angry at all.

No matter how cynical the eldest son of the Grand Duke was, or said some embarrassing words, the other party calmly took it as a compliment.

This made Qin Ran have to distance himself from the other party again.

A person who can control his emotions must be a person with a delicate mind.

He didn't want to use his skill [Tracking] to chase the other party all the way, but he fell short at the last moment.

Three and four days ago, respectively, Hans and Lawless successfully completed the main quest and left the dungeon world in front of them.

And he's about to finish the main quest.

Whether it's continuing north and leaving the Duchy of Merck in the 'normal' way.

Or choose to kill the 'reinforcements' in a 'special' way.

It's all close at hand.

But the more this time, the more you need to be careful.

Da-da-da-da!

Amid the sound of horses' hooves, a group of knights appeared at the foot of the mountain stream.

Qin Ran looked at it from the corner of his eye.

The leader is a middle-aged man with white sideburns.

And the traces left by the years on his body are far more than these, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and mouth are clearly visible.

Still, his back was straight.

The action of turning over and dismounting is even more neat.

Stompe!

With each step, the armor on his body will make a metal grinding sound, making the opponent's footsteps appear more and more calm and powerful.

"Your Highness!"

Felin jumped off the rock and bowed in greeting.

"Hmm!"

"Fei Linqing, you did a good job!"

"I'll remember everything you've done!"

"Now, I'd like to talk to Moore alone!"

Grand Duke Merck said.

"Do your will!"

Fei Lin maintained a bowed posture, and his body retreated into the distance of the mountain stream, even with the knights.

When everyone had left, Grand Duke Merck turned her gaze to Moldler.

Facing his father's gaze, Moldler turned his head and did not look directly.

Even if this father is only nominal.

"I'm disappointed!"

Grand Duke Merck looked at Moldler's side face and said slowly.

And as soon as the words fell, Archduke Merck slammed out the horse in his hand. Whip.

Syllable!

The whip slammed into Moldler's body.

Suddenly, the skin opened and the flesh opened.

Blood stained on the horse. Whip. , ticking down, forming small bright red dots on the ground.

And that's just the beginning.

"Do you know what, I'm disappointed!"

Grand Duke Merck's voice was unabashedly angry.

Horse in hand. Whip, split the head and cover the face.

Moldler gritted his teeth, didn't say a word, and endured it stubbornly.

Not even a muffled snort came out.

The whipping lasted ten minutes.

In horses. Whip. It was only after being cut off that Grand Duke Merck stopped.

Moldler, who was already seriously injured, was already dying after a whipping.

Grand Duke Merck looked at Moldler and drew the long sword at his waist.

Boom!

With the sound of the blade rubbing against the scabbard, Moldler raised his head with great difficulty, and he looked at the Grand Duke Merck with a gloomy face holding the long sword, and opened his mouth and smiled.

Death.

He had already prepared

When he decided on this plan, he was enlightened.

Despite the fear.

But there are some things that have to be done.

"Come on!"

Moldler said.

It took a lot of effort for him to utter the voice.

Sou!

And at the moment when Moldler's words came out, the long sword in the hand of the Grand Duke Merck was slashed down.

The sword flashed.

Moldler subconsciously closed his eyes.

The expected pain did not appear.

Nor did the imaginary relief appear.

Only the shackles on the hands and feet were loosened.

Then, Moldler's entire body began to fall, falling into a powerful arm.

Moldler opened his eyes.

He was held in the arms of Grand Duke Merck and was walking to one side.

Moldler frowned and looked at Archduke Merck in bewilderment.

Similarly, Qin Ran, who had been watching here, was also puzzled.

When the Grand Duke Merck's sword fell, he thought that Moldler was definitely finished.

The other party will be stabbed to death with a sword by the angry Grand Duke Merck.

But to Qin Ran's surprise, Grand Duke Merck only cut Moldler's rope.

"What the hell is going on?"

The incomprehension in Qin Ran's heart made him frown.

However, the sudden sound of rapid breathing made Qin Ran divert his attention.

Someone!

Qin Ran was shocked in his heart.

Then, before Qin Ran could react, a black shadow had already appeared in front of Grand Duke Merck, and a shining sword light **** towards Grand Duke Merck's throat.

A gauzy shadow appeared in front of the sword light.

In the middle of breathing, the shining sword light was concealed.

Fei Lin stood silently in front of Archduke Merck, and a slender stabbing sword appeared in his hand, pressing against a two-handed sword with a broad blade.

Fei Lin looked at the person in front of him with a sneer.

"Stegner, in front of me, you dare to shoot your sword at Your Highness......"

"Sure enough, you should be cut by a thousand cuts!"

In the gloomy voice, darkness loomed around Felin's body.

Endless killing opportunities include the sudden appearance of Stegner.

But Stegner completely ignored the killing.

His gaze crossed over Ferrin and stared straight at Archduke Merck.

"Let go of Mohr!"

Stegner growled.

Grand Duke Merck looked at Stegner, whose face was a little distorted because of the roar, and raised his hand and patted Ferrin's shoulder.

"Your Highness?"

Felin, who instantly understood what Grand Duke Merck meant, looked at the former in puzzlement.

"Leave it to me!"

Grand Duke Merck said.

"Yes!"

Ferrin nodded and moved out of the way.

However, the bayonet sword in his hand was still aimed at Stegner.

Ferrin assured that if Stegner made any changes, he could protect Archduke Merck as soon as possible.

There's no Ferin in the way.

Grand Duke Merck and Sturgner looked at each other.

But the expressions of the two were completely different.

Merck is as quiet as ever.

Stegner, however, was angry and twisted.

"You think Moore is your son?"

After a moment, Grand Duke Merck spoke first.

"Of course!"

"Of course he is my son!"

"Give me back Moore!"

Stegner roared.

Qin Ran, who was hiding on the side, widened his eyes.

"Moldler turned out to be Stegner's son?"

"No wonder they have such a close relationship!"

Some things that were originally incomprehensible were completely unraveled with such a dialogue.

Qin Ran, who thought that he had solved some doubts, frowned again when he heard the conversation behind him.

"Stegner...... No, Leol! ”

"Can you wait?"

As he spoke, Grand Duke Merck put down his eldest son in his arms and moved very carefully.

Then, he took off the ring from his left index finger and put it on the left index finger of his eldest son.

"It represents the authority of the Grand Duke!"

Grand Duke Merck pointed to the ring.

Then, the Grand Duke looked at his eldest son with his eyes and said in a slow tone.

"Moore, do you know why I'm disappointed?"

"Because, you don't believe me!"

"Although I am not a qualified father, I will never mistake my son, and from the first time I saw you, I knew that you were my son and that of Kelly......"

"Shut up!"

Stegner let out a roar that interrupted Archduke Merck's words.

"Everything you say is a lie!"

"I'm Moore's father!"

"Moreover, Kelly is my wife, not yours!"

Like a mad beast, Stegner rushed towards Archduke Merck.

The two-handed sword brought a gust of wind and was about to tear apart the target in his eyes.

Ferrin immediately stood in the way of Grand Duke Merck.

At the same time, there was a shout of killing outside the mountain stream.

A green viper swallowtail flag flutters high.

Is that......

Flag of the Duchy of Titan!
