Turning the corner of the street, Kieran saw a group of soldiers. )?)?)?))
Different from the city guards, these soldiers appeared to be much more elite, not only in terms of weapons and equipment, but also mentally. After seeing him, although they were afraid and nervous, they did not forget their duties.
"The remnants of Thunder Fortress and the guards of the palace?"
Qin Ran guessed.
There are 3,000 professional soldiers stationed in Thunder Fortress. At the beginning, he just broke through and didn't completely kill 3,000.
The Praetorian Guards were obviously loyal to James VIII.
Although that Jenny James had almost reached the point where Lualdrie had overwhelmed the sky, a small part of them still loyal to the real king.
Even... very few.
But for Qin Ran, it was rare good news.
If he really relied on those city guards, Qin Ran couldn't think of anything else he could use besides carrying out the beheading plan.
After finally getting some good news, Qin Ran relaxed his steps.
Although these soldiers watched with fearful and nervous eyes, Kieran could clearly feel that these soldiers were not friendly.
But Qin Ran was calm and composed.
And when he saw Mary at the end of the line, the corners of Kieran's mouth turned up slightly, revealing a very rare smile.
Mary was wearing a white knight uniform, and her blond hair was still gathered together and tied behind her head as Qin Ran remembered.
The long and narrow blue eyes showed a maturity far beyond his peers.
And the dagger at the waist makes this maturity look heroic.
It's hard for a girl to have such a temperament.
So be glamorous, if not a pretty girl.
"Good day, Mary."
Qin Ran said hello.
Mary nodded, her mature demeanor was reserved, but the blue eyes that looked at Qin Ran were as fierce as flames.
"follow me!"
Suppressing the impulse in her heart, Mary said this.
Then, he walked towards the house behind him.
This is a house at a cross street with reinforced doors and windows.
"Temporary command post?"
After Qin Ran glanced at it, his heart was full of surprise.
According to what he saw with his own eyes, even if he chooses a temporary command post, the royal palace in Luerdry is much better than here. Apart from its grandeur, it can be used as a fortress in times of war.
It can be seen that Mary's ancestors thought of the worst when they built the palace.
However, thinking of Mary's life experience, Qin Ran didn't ask any further questions, and just followed Mary into the house.
Squeak.
The door was closed.
And the moment the door closed, Mary, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and rushed straight into Qin Ran's arms, wrapping her arms around Qin Ran's waist, and pressing her face against Qin Ran's chest.
For Mary's height, it was a little difficult to do so.
But it seems that doing so can make her feel at ease.
Mary tried to stand on tiptoe.
Qin Ran's whole body froze, and his arms spread out unnaturally. He didn't know what expression, movement, or words to respond to the other party.
He could only stand there stupidly.
It wasn't until Kieran noticed that Mary, who was standing on tiptoe, was about to jump a little bit to shorten the distance between her and him, did he come back to his senses.
His body didn't move, but his unnaturally spread arms rested lightly on Mary's shoulders.
Let Mary, who had just taken off, return to the ground like this.
Mary frowned.
It twisted into a faint bulge.
"You owe me a farewell...you should make it up to me!"
Mary said so.
"Um."
"So, I'm back!"
Qin Ran smiled.
"I want something else!"
Mary emphasized.
"Others... the matter in front of me is more important. Luardi is concerned about the spies of the prairie people. Although Boko has taken over, I don't think they will gain anything. Those spies master the secrets of the prairie people. We need special people to come Against them!"
Qin Ran changed the subject.
Just, a little blunt.
"You owe me compensation!"
Mary was completely unfocused, emphasizing again.
"good!"
After taking the test for a while, Qin Ran nodded again after weighing it.
Then, he felt the arms of Mary, who was trying to wrap around him, tighten more and more.
That power came from the gap in the [Armor of Excellence].
It would be better to ignore the defense of [Armor of Excellence].
Qin Ran, who was relieved just now, frowned.
He discovered Mary's abnormality.
"What's wrong?"
Qin Ran asked.
"He's about to give up!"
"He asked me to evacuate to the south with some people, and he intends to die here as a king!"
"Stupid, ludicrous dignity."
Mary said sarcastically.
But what Kieran who lowered his head saw was helpless unwillingness and sadness.
Facing Qin Ran's eyes, Mary lowered her head, hugged Qin Ran even harder, and pressed her cheek tightly against the cold armor.
It is a kind of persistence that never lets go after seeing a glimmer of hope in despair.
Like... the straw of a drowning man.
Qin Ran took a deep breath and slightly closed his eyes.
He clearly felt the girl's helplessness and hesitation.
The impulsiveness of the girl in front of her is definitely not only because of her feelings, but also because of her instinct to ask for help.
That is the attachment that arises after sharing weal and woe.
Like stray puppies gaining a temporary safe haven.
Closed eyes, opened.
A ray of light flickered in it.
Qin Ran gently squatted down and looked at the girl in front of him from a normal angle.
"I can't comment on your father, I'm not familiar with him, we only met once... In this world, you are the only one who knows me well!"
"So... what do you think?"
"Or, what do you want to do?"
He didn't think much at this time, he just wanted to make the girl in front of him happy by the way when he completed the main task.
Because, he knew that the girl was unwilling to give up the father who was worthless in the girl's mouth.
It was as if he had a trace of hatred for his parents who abandoned him, yet he really wanted to see the two of them.
Very contradictory, but very realistic.
His wish was hard to come true.
But if possible, he wouldn't let this girl who had a similar fate with him realize her wish.
Especially when it's handy.
"me… "
The girl's words faltered.
She subconsciously wanted to speak her mind.
But immediately, she shook her head.
Then, there is silence.
"Are you worried about me?"
"Do not worry!"
"I am best at creating miracles, haven't you seen them before?"
Qin Ran instantly saw through the girl's concerns.
He raised his hand and touched the top of the girl's head, comforting her.
"But this time it's different!"
"It's no longer the vanguard of a thousand people, but fifty thousand people!"
"Looking from a high place, there are boundless and black masses of fifty thousand people!"
The girl shook her head again.
"So what?"
"What I'm asking now is what you think. It has nothing to do with those people. Whether it's fifty thousand or five hundred thousand, it doesn't matter!"
"Mary, tell me what you think?"
Qin Ran asked again.
"I, I want... to repel those invaders and protect Warren!"
The girl's voice was trembling at the beginning, but it became firm in the end.
Facing the expected answer, Qin Ran smiled slightly.
He stared at the girl's firm expression and stood up.
"I'll help you!"
Qin Ran said so. (.)
