Buzz!

The metallic sound came from the long sword in the opponent's hand.

The long sword was originally dark without a trace of cold light, and it looked like a burnt wooden stick, but with this light sound, a green light shone.

It is not the emerald green of life.

It's a kind of bleakness, like the green that adds gray to it.

It feels uncomfortable and uncomfortable when you see it at first.

Qin Ran is no exception.

He looked at the sword in the other party's hand and frowned subconsciously.

Just between this wrinkle.

call!

The blood-covered floor in the room with bones and broken limbs and arms suddenly started to burn.

It's not a normal red flame, but...

green!

It is very similar to the green light on the long sword in the other party's hand.

The next moment, these green flames, like milk swallows returning to their nests, were pulled by a special force, and rushed towards the long sword.

Qin Ran's heart was terrified and his fingers were about to pull the trigger.

But the scene that happened immediately was beyond Qin Ran's expectations.

Bang!

The other party threw the sword in front of him, turned around and jumped into the big hole that was broken on the roof.

"Run!"

And before leaving, he did not forget to tell Qin Ran.

Although Qin Ran didn't know why the scene in front of him happened and would not believe his opponent's words, the sense of crisis that appeared in his intuition made him understand what to do.

【Prous's Armor】

【Crow's Swift】

A faint light flashed with a wrist guard, and a layer of defensive force appeared on Qin Ran's body surface. The cloak full of black feathers shook slightly, and his whole person rushed out like an arrow from the string.

When Qin Ran rushed out of the house

boom!

A huge explosion appeared.

A green fireball rose in the night sky with a diameter of more than three meters. The strong airflow was wrapped in broken wood, and the gravel and some bones shot in all directions with force comparable to a strong bow and crossbow.

Whoosh swish swish swish!

The extremely fast sound of breaking through the air was affected within a range of 40 meters in diameter.

Qin Ran, who was running hard, was also affected by the waves.

However, with the powerful level of defense brought by [Prous's Armor], such impact is simply difficult to cause any damage to Qin Ran.

But Qin Ran turned his head and looked at him with horror.

If he had not left the core range of the explosion, even if he had [Prous's Armor], he would have been unavoidable.

Just look at the explosion point that was razed to the ground and only a pit of nearly two meters deep, you can imagine how powerful it is.

You know, there was originally a house composed of seven or eight rooms.

"trap!"

"It's a trap against that black shadow!"

"Both sides are extremely familiar with each other, one side is chasing, and the other side is planning."

"And I just happened to enter the pond fish and was affected!"

Qin Ran recalled the previous scene and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Then, he immediately turned around to find the fat figure who was flooded by bricks and stones, hoping to get some clues from the other party's mouth.

Although everything seemed to be just right, the green flame made Qin Ran instinctively think of the green juice melted by Kalkin and the coachman's corpse.

Moreover, Calkin's previous description of the dark room was too detailed.

It's not like a temporary lie.

Of course, maybe it's all just a coincidence.

But what if not?

This made Qin Ran involuntarily speed up his return.

From his current perspective, he could clearly see the other party's appearance under the bricks and stones.

When the top beam was moved away, the other party with a red forehead appeared in front of Qin Ran.

"It hit the head, fell into a coma, and was buried by bricks and stones."

"But it is precisely because of the burial of bricks and stones that we avoid greater impact in the explosion."

"What a good luck!"

Qin Ran held the fat body against his shoulders and ran quickly towards the darkness on one side.

And behind him, the patrolmen who knew it later appeared again.

Same as before.

No trace of Qin Ran was found either.

...

When Qin Ran returned to Herbert's residence, it was already around three in the morning.

Except for what Herbert was writing, there were only two coachmen who took turns to watch. Jona and the cook were already asleep in the tent.

Harold was sitting by the bonfire holding a long sword, snoring slightly.

The young man insisted on joining the vigil team, but it didn't seem to be very effective.

“Good harvest?”

Herbert looked at Qin Ran, who was carrying a man on his shoulder, put down the pencil in his hand, and joked while rubbing his wrist.

"Really good!"

Qin Ran put down the big guy on his shoulder.

The other party's weight was as heavy as the fat and big figure he saw.

Even, a little heavier.

If he hadn't carried the other party, Qin Ran would have definitely come back sooner.

"Besides this big guy, there are some things!"

Qin Ran did not hide the matter between Kalkin and the other coachman.

He hopes to get some help from Herbert.

After all, the other party is a knowledgeable ‘scholar’ and is likely to know what happened to Carkin and the other coachman.

Moreover, even if he doesn't say it, the unconscious guy next to him will say something once he wakes up.

Instead of doing that, it is better to take the initiative to explain and seek help.

"The face seemed to be rotten like a burnt by flames?"

"But can keep the mind clear?"

"Can you not be afraid of ordinary swords with your skin muscles?"

"What kind of creature is this?"

"It seems to be similar to a legendary monster!"

"No, no, it's a little different, those monsters are taller!"

“That’s…”

Herbert murmured to himself.

The whole person fell into an immersion state that Qin Ran had seen before.

Suddenly, Qin Ran shrugged.

The previous experience told Qin Ran that once Herbert fell into this state, all he could do was wait quietly.

However, Qin Ran was full of expectations for such a waiting this time.

Because, from Herbert's murmur, he could confirm that Herbert had some clues about the changes in Calkin and the other coachman.
