The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 220 Unable to Distinguish Between True and False

The knights who followed Grand Duke Merck threw themselves into battle when the people from the Principality of Titan appeared.

The whole process is methodical, showing its own excellent quality.

And when the battle started, with a team of less than thirty people, hundreds of soldiers of the Principality of Titan were blocked from the mountain stream.

Although there is a reason for the terrain, it is more about its own strength.

The battle between Stegner and Felin in the mountain stream is in full swing.

The sword energy swept across, opening mountains and cracking rocks.

The shadows passed by, annihilated silently.

Under Qin Ran's gaze, the two were completely on par.

However, as time passed, Flynn gradually gained the upper hand.

Not because of strength.

But because of Archduke Merck.

"Kelly and I met by accident. At that time, she was younger than you. Of course, I was just a brat..."

"Shut up! Shut up!"

Grand Duke Merck whispered to his eldest son a secret that no one else could know.

Even Stegner's roar could not interrupt such a narration.

On the contrary, the impatient Stegner was succeeded by Flynn again and again.

A veil-like shadow passed over Stegner's body, and the leather armor did not play any defensive role at all, and it would penetrate as soon as it was worn.

A series of small wounds, blood overflowing.

After a while, half of Stegner's body was dyed red.

"It's not right!"

Looking at the scene in front of him, then at the battle between the knights and the Principality of Titan in the distance, and at the Grand Duke Merck who was speaking softly, Kieran frowned tightly.

"Why tell these things at this time? It's completely like a distraction for Stegner!"

"And why would Flynn choose such a place? Why not choose a safer place?"

"He clearly knows that Stegner has a different relationship with the Principality of Titan!"

"It seems to be for the purpose of attracting people from the Principality of Titan!"

"etc?!"

Qin Ran suddenly thought of a possibility.

He looked at Grand Duke Merck with a horrified gaze.

Grand Duke Merck stood beside Mordelle, his tone was extremely soft, but the expression on his face was so calm, it could even be said to be...indifferent.

This is definitely not what a father should look like when he confides in his son.

Clang!

Grand Duke Merck's long sword was unsheathed again.

The tip of the sword pointed straight to the sky.

The sun shone on the blade, and immediately reflected a bright light.

Let people who are hundreds of meters away can see clearly.

For example: above the mountain stream.

Rumble!

At the entrance of the mountain stream in the distance, there was a sound like thunder.

I saw that the logs that were supposed to be the fortifications of the Afterglow Canyon rolled down the mountain stream with football-sized stones, and fell on the heads of the soldiers of the Principality of Titan while breathing.

After another breath, the soldiers were overwhelmed.

In less than ten seconds, the soldiers of the Principality of Titan who rushed into the mountain stream were wiped out.

The remaining soldiers who did not enter the mountain stream fled in panic.

But more soldiers of the Principality of Merck emerged from both sides of the mountain stream and rushed straight down.

"That's the signal!"

"trap!"

"From beginning to end, this is a trap!"

"A trap aimed at the Principality of Titan!"

A clear understanding rose in Qin Ran's heart.

"The Archduke Merck learned of the castle's rebellion and planned to use it!"

"Or...he already knew everything, but pretended not to, and has been arranging everything silently?"

The second guess made Qin Ran's heart shudder.

But if you think about it, it's not impossible.

You know, Flynn clearly said, 'When Stegner appeared in front of the Grand Duke ten years ago, I had doubts about him! ’ Similar words.

Flynn knew about it, wouldn't Grand Duke Merck know about it?

Such an answer is completely guesswork-free.

Grand Duke Merck must know.

Otherwise, Flynn would not have happened to appear in Castle Merk.

"Terrible people!"

"No!"

"The other party doesn't even have basic humanity!"

"In order to win, we will do everything we can!"

Kieran looked at the long sword held high in the distance, and still spoke softly to Mordler about the Grand Duke Merck, as if he was watching a snake and a scorpion.

Subconsciously, Kieran looked at Mordelle.

The dying Mordelle was already in a coma at this time.

But the comatose Mordelle was not the reason for Archduke Merck to stop. He told the story of his acquaintance, acquaintance and love with the lady named Kelly in an increasingly gentle tone.

Stegner, who was fighting Felin on the side, roared like a wild beast.

Flynn left scars on his body time and time again.

As for Archduke Merck's narration, as Stegner's injuries increased, his tone became slightly agitated.

"Moore, do you know why your mother Kelly left me in the end and sent you back to me?"

"That's because he discovered some of my secrets—some secrets that cannot be told to others. She thought I was a cold-blooded executioner, so she left me!"

"But she underestimated me too much!"

"My determination has brought you back into my arms!"

"Isn't it a good deal to exchange you for just a person from a village?"

"It's as if, now, I exchange Legrand and Riedrell, plus the lives of some insignificant people, in exchange for the entire Principality of Titan!"

"What a bargain!"

Grand Duke Merck looked at Stegner while talking.

he continued.

"For that I really want to thank you very much, Rio!"

"You are still so simple-minded, I just need to show some flaws, and you can't wait to make a move!"

"However, after ten years, you have only completed your plan, and I am really disappointed!"

"Originally, I thought that you would establish contact with the Principality of Titan in three to five years!"

"After all, I gave you so many chances!"

While speaking, Grand Duke Merck shook his head.

"Merck!"

Stegner growled.

"I'm here!"

"I suddenly had a great idea!"

Grand Duke Merck nodded as if answering, and the corners of his wrinkled mouth suddenly turned up, revealing a malicious smile.

"How about you commit suicide?"

"As long as you commit suicide, I will let Moore go!"

"Your existence is really an unstable factor, making me sleepless!"

As he said, the long sword in his hand pointed at the unconscious Mordler.

"Are you serious?"

Stegner stopped attacking.

Flynn also stopped, and returned to Grand Duke Merck in a flash.

"Of course, Moore is my son after all, and I only have one son left. If possible, I don't want to lose him!"

Archduke Merck said.

"good!"

"I choose death!"

"But I won't commit suicide, Flynn, haven't you always wanted to kill me?"

"bring it on!"

"Do it!"

Stegner dropped the sword.

clang!

With the crisp sound of the long sword falling to the ground, Felin's rapier pierced Stegner's chest.

Pooh!

The thin-edged rapier pierced through the chest.

Stegner smiled.

He hugged Felin, who was close at hand, and then rushed towards Grand Duke Merck. When the latter didn't react at all, he pinched him tightly in his arms with the other hand.

Stegner turned his head, looked somewhere, and shouted, "Do it!"

There is……

The place where Qin Ran hid.
