Chapter Twenty-Six: Where Did the Head Go?

Qin Ran sat in the reception room chatting with Herbert. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, the lips are all about inconsequential things, but the real communication is the words written by the fingers of the two hairs.

Suddenly, Qin Ran's fingers as he wrote the words paused-

【Trigger Special Event: Fateful War】

[Based on your experience and performance in the dungeon world, you cannot refuse this special event!] 】

[Battle of Fate: Bearing the name of 'Descendant of the Emperor', 'Royal Family' and 'Royal Family', and recognized by most of the xenotypes, under the guidance of Cardwell, you have attracted the old enemy of the original 'Emperor', this will be a continuation of the war, you need to ensure the victory of the 'Nick Dynasty'! ] 】

(Depending on the performance of the event, you will receive a variety of ratings for completing the game!) )

……

A special event that cannot be refused?

Qin Ran frowned.

It was the first time he had encountered something like this.

"Has it changed because of the reputation of the 'royal family' that I replaced?"

Qin Ran looked at the information in the annotation and guessed.

"What happened?"

The old scholar dipped his fingers in tea and wrote.

"Something unexpected came to mind!"

"Do you know who the Emperor's old enemy is?"

Qin Ran shook his head and continued.

"The Emperor's nemesis?"

"At that time, the Nick Dynasty had unified the whole world, and that 'emperor' had almost no enemies, and it was even more impossible if he had an old enemy."

"But...... There is one more possibility! ”

"Witch!"

"I remember in some books that when the witches offered the Eye of Kemeris, they disappeared without a trace."

"In some books, the witches are also quite powerful, they once had their own kingdom and civilization, but they also disappeared without a trace - it seems that it also happened after the Eye of Kemeris was presented to the 'Emperor', and then the 'Emperor' became more and more unscrupulous until the whole dynasty was gone!"

"If it's an old enemy, I think it's very likely that a witch!"

"But it's just possible!"

After thinking about it for a while, the old scholar wrote in detail.

Looking at the words on the coffee table, Qin Ran's expression became solemn.

Unknown enemy!

That's not a good thing.

A strong enemy is not to be feared.

Because, no matter how powerful the enemy is, there are weaknesses.

But unknown enemies are different!

Like an assassin shrouded in shadows, when you get close without realizing it, the sharp dagger will slit your throat in the most unexpected way.

"Witches?"

Qin Ran adjusted his sitting posture, and after silently reciting this term in his heart, his eyes looked at the annotation of [Special Events] again.

Among them, Cardwell's name and the word 'guide' are very glaring.

"It's late at night, you need to get some rest!"

"If there's anything, we'll talk about it tomorrow!"

Qin Ran said to Herbert like this.

Instead, his finger wrote on the coffee table: Where's Cardwell's lair?

Herbert was shaken.

The old scholar seemed to have guessed what Qin Ran wanted to do, but the old scholar didn't persuade him, he knew very well that his persuasion was of no use to someone like Qin Ran.

Qin Ran, who has identified certain things, cannot be persuaded by words alone.

Schudrin Castle.

Old scholars wrote down this place name.

At the same time, the old scholar added another line of text: The legacy of the 'emperor' is also there!

Seeing this line of text, Qin Ran's eyes narrowed.

Such a coincidence?

Qin Ran's narrowed eyes shone with a trace of essence.

……

"Your Highness, our knights are already following those guys, and they will definitely not be able to run!"

Eddell walked into the study and bowed straight and said.

With Herbert and the others being 'escorted' in, anyone who is not a fool can guess that there must be a temporary stronghold of Cardwell near the Carthater barracks.

There was no need for Qin Ran to say more, a glance would let Yi Del know what to do.

"Don't let them follow, go straight to Shudrin Castle."

"Then, arrange for me to have a fast horse and the necessary supplies!"

Qin Ran said.

"Shudrin Castle?"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Idel was stunned.

It didn't understand Qin Ran's order, but that didn't prevent it from doing it.

For Yi De, who had just been upgraded to another level and could obtain the qualification of a seat in the chamber, Qin Ran's order was a will that could not be disobeyed.

At dawn, a party escorted by four xenoknights set out.

Of the three wagons, the last one was full of supplies.

Although the distance between the castle and the Karhat barracks was not far, and it would only take a day for a horse to gallop, Eddell did not care about this, and still loaded the wagons with the 'necessary supplies'.

The kind it understands, of course.

Gold and silver utensils, blankets woven from black goat, and even fresh ingredients and fruits.

In fact, if it weren't for Qin Ran's stop at the end.

The team is going to be incredibly big.

Yi Deer couldn't wait to hang the entire barracks behind Qin Ran.

"It's faithful!"

Conti said not just sarcastically but also complimentingly.

Qin Ran didn't take a stubble, he leaned on a soft cushion and buried almost all of his upper body in it, there was no comfort on his face, only a faint thought.

"Humph!"

Looking at Qin Ran's appearance, Conti couldn't help but snort lightly, turned around and jumped out of the carriage.

Immediately, silence returned to the carriage.

However, the silence did not last long.

"Ahh

A scream rang out from outside.

Qin Ran, who was half-leaning there, rushed out of the carriage like electricity.

The corpse of one of the four xenomorph knights is separated.

The body below the neck was still sitting on the horse's back, but the head above the neck was nowhere to be found, only blood spurting from the chest.

Rehard, Lie, and the three xenoknights instantly surrounded Qin Ran, protecting him behind him, looking around vigilantly.

Conti, Big Guy and Herbert also jumped out of the second carriage.

Conti, who was temporarily acting as the driver of the second carriage, looked at the dead body with a horrified expression.

Conti, who had been a bounty hunter for a while, didn't become horrified when confronted with a dead body, and what really shocked her was that she didn't see the attacker the whole time.

What she saw was the xenoknight's head twisting on its own for several turns, then falling to the ground.

Conti hurried over to the corpse that had fallen from his horse and examined it closely.

The ragged muscles around her neck, the torn skin, and the broken marks on the vertebrae all proved that she was not mistaken.

The Xenoknight's neck did suffer a rapid twist.

Next, the skull was screwed off.

It's just that......

Who did this to you?

Conti looked up at the people around him, hoping for some answers.

But everyone who made eye contact with her was at a loss.

Apparently no one saw the attackers.

Only Qin Ran is an exception.

"Did you find anything?"

Looking at Qin Ran's thoughtful appearance, Conti couldn't help asking.

Qin Ran didn't answer, just raised his right hand, stretched out his index finger and pointed at his head.

"What do you mean......

Before Conti could finish speaking, he reacted.

Head?

Head!

Where's that xenoknight's head?!
