Now in an extraordinary period, every holy rank powerhouse is a very powerful hole card and needs to be treated well.
"Miss Alice, thank you for your support to the Empire. I will remember your kind assistance."
"You are serious." Alice nodded, her smile a little stiff, obviously not suitable for this occasion.
Duke Qiangwei looked to the side again, intending to look at another strong man, but when he saw Merlin, he subconsciously ignored the past and looked around blankly.
Ok?
what's the situation?
Didn’t you say that there are two strong people?
Why is there one, where is the other???
(?-_?)??
Chapter 20: Suppression
Duke Qiangwei looked around and felt that there was no second strong man.
Didn’t you say there are two?Why does it seem that there is only this female adventurer?
Duke Qiangwei had to focus his gaze on Merlin again and looked again.
Can't help thinking, is this dark iron adventurer the second strongest?Impossible, it's like joking.
If it weren't for Cecilia to say that there are two strong men, Duke Rose would think that Merlin was specially carrying things for Alice.
Merlin didn't pay attention to Duke Rose's eyes at all, but looked at the Duke's mansion next to him, sighing that it was luxurious, faintly better than his own Demon King Hall, mainly because the Demon King Hall was too old and looked very LOW.
"My father, you can be completely relieved with their two protecting His Royal Highness Michelle." Cecilia said seriously.
"Well, it is true." Duke Qiangwei nodded, although he said so, he was not very happy in his heart.
Because Cecilia was completely disastrous, she faintly interfered with Duke Rose's plan.
Originally, Duke Rose planned to arrange a guard for Michel, but he had to be someone he trusted.
It can not only protect Michelle's safety, but also play a good surveillance role, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
However, Michelle hired two adventurers to serve as escorts, which was a bit out of his control.
Duke Rose did not trust Michelle completely, after all, those who doubted Queen Elizabeth's remarks were just one-sided words.
So Duke Rose is going to test it personally, and has prepared two plans in his heart to ensure that he is in a safe position.
One is that if Queen Elizabeth is fake, Duke Rose will blatantly attack the royal capital under the banner of maintaining the orthodox of the imperial royal family, and then support Michel to become the new queen, becoming the biggest beneficiary himself.
The second is that if Queen Elizabeth is true, Duke Rose will personally escort Michelle to Her Majesty the Queen, dispense with all responsibilities, and will receive a certain reward for sending back Princess Michele.
Both plans are not a loss-making business for Duke Rose, but only if Michelle is firmly in his hands.
The appearance of Merlin and Alice somewhat interfered with Duke Rose's plan, which made him feel a little disgusted.
Fortunately, Michelle chose two guards, but Merlin seemed too weak. This gave Duke Rose a good reason to force his own person to monitor Michelle.
"Although His Royal Highness has hired two adventurers as guards, one of them seems a bit unsatisfactory. For the sake of your Royal Highness's safety, I think it should be replaced." Duke Qiangwei's words were relatively euphemistic, and they were not particularly ugly.
"Huh?" Merlin suddenly showed a smile, which was not satisfactory?Are you talking about yourself?
Michelle frowned a little and felt a little uncomfortable. She didn't like others to interfere with herself. Although Merlin was a soy saucer in her eyes, she could be regarded as a person appointed by herself. He doesn't respect himself, and Michelle knows Duke Rose's cold blood and will not do something meaningless, and always feels that the other party is making some ideas.
"My father, you are misunderstanding, that Master Merlin is a very strong adventurer." Cecilia couldn't help but explain.
"Yes, Lord Duke, you can test it if you don't believe it." Kyle couldn't sit still.
"You two shut up to me. The decision I made cannot allow you to refute it." Duke Qiangwei's tone became a little harsh, and he seemed to dislike others to interrupt him, "I still need to test? Don't I know The level of adventurer is divided according to strength?"
Cecilia and Kyle chose to remain silent, facing the pressure of Duke Rose, they dare not say anything?
"Merlin, you seem to be despised again." Alice said to Merlin quietly.
"Stop talking, normal operation, I'm used to it." Mei Lin replied blankly.
"I don't know what your highness means? For your safety, I think you need two real powerhouses, instead of letting a dark iron adventurer come to charge." Grand Duke Qiangwei paused and glanced at Melan next to him. "Myron is the knight commander of the Knights of the Rose. He is strong and trustworthy. I suggest that you replace the Dark Iron adventurer and let Myron and this Miss Alice serve as your guard. This will surely be safe. a lot of."
Michel squinted her eyes and faintly felt Duke Rose's distrust of herself. This was not to protect herself at all, but to imprison herself.
As the princess of the empire, Michelle certainly hated this behavior, and her face suddenly became hard to look like. Although she was not in grade, she barely revealed a touch of majesty.
"No, thank you Lord Duke for your kindness. I don't need your people to protect me. These two adventurers are enough. I heard that Mr. Myron is your close guard, or let him protect you. Security is better."
"His Royal Highness, I hope you can understand my painstaking efforts. This trip will be very dangerous. Protecting your safety is the top priority. I don't want to let you suffer any harm before the matter has been investigated, and moreover, give your safety to A dark iron adventurer, doesn't it seem too trivial?" Grand Duke Qiang Wei used Merlin as a breakthrough to severely suppress Michelle, making it hard to say anything.
Michelle was faintly annoyed, but it was difficult to refute it. On the surface, Duke Rose's words did make sense.
Grand Duke Qiang Wei cast a wink at Melen next to him and motioned to him to drive Merlin away and then take his place.
Melan nodded, walked directly to Merlin, and said, "You can leave now, you don't need you here, you are replaced by me."
"Wait, I said you..."
Alice was a little dissatisfied, but Merlin stopped her before she could finish her words and planned to deal with it herself.
"Let me leave? Seriously?"
"Yes, the princess is a daughter of gold. It seems too trivial to hand it over to you this dark iron adventurer. It is safer for me to protect the safety of your highness. Where do you come from, or go back obediently." Melan held his arms and said with a beard.
"Then what if I don't leave?" Merlin showed a playful expression, not paying attention to Melan.
Myron suddenly narrowed his eyes and felt that Merlin was a rascal. To deal with such a person, obviously violence was the best solution.
So Malin took a step closer unceremoniously, pointed at Merlin with a finger, and said with a serious threat.
"Take a good look at yourself, rubbish, I see a lot of rubbish like you, don't think that you can eat and drink everywhere. If you want to be the guard of the imperial princess, you are not qualified. If you dare to say nothing, I will crippled you on the spot."
Merlin raised his eyebrows, nodded to Mellen, grabbed his fingers like lightning, and slammed them down at a 90° right angle, so that the other party could experience what is pain?
In front of the door of the Duke’s Mansion, Mellen’s painful screams like killing a pig suddenly sounded
"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"
(ΩДΩ)
Chapter 21: Monthly Ticket Plus
This scream was extremely harsh, and the whole army heard the marching steps and stopped to watch the situation.
Even many soldiers held their hands on the hilt of the sword, as long as Duke Qiangwei gave an order, he would swarm up.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. Cecilia and Kyle didn't dare to speak at all. They didn't expect Mellen's remarks to stimulate Merlin.
Duke Qiangwei's face suddenly turned dark, and he didn't expect that this dark iron adventurer would attack his subordinates. The strength gap was like a moat. Couldn't the opponent see it?The guys who can do this are nothing more than two kinds of people, one is a guy who is not afraid of death, and the other is a fool.
Based on Duke Rose's understanding of Myron, his personality is arrogant and can't stand the humiliation, I'm afraid this matter will not end so well.
Duke Rose didn't plan to care about this. Mellen, as his knight commander, was humiliated by the opponent, and indirectly lost his face.
And now so many people are watching, even if Mellen kills Merlin, Duke Rose intends to suppress the matter, after all, his majesty cannot be lost.
It's just that Duke Rose is a little afraid of Alice next to Merlin. It seems that they are husband and wife, and I don't know if the conflict can be resolved peacefully.
Melan held his torn fingers back and forth again and again, feeling that the joints had begun to swell.
Unexpectedly, he could not be threatened, but he was severely taught by the other party, and he lost his face in public.
Mellen closed his mouth, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, staring at the opposite Merlin viciously.
"I always don't like people whose mouths are too smelly, and you still dare to threaten to beat me crippled? Interesting, you can try it~"
Merlin rubbed his wrist and put on a test look, intending to teach the knight a little lesson, otherwise he would really become a Teenage Ninja Turtle.
Michelle's expression of astonishment solidified on his face, feeling that Merlin's behavior was unexpected. The opponent was a knight commander of the holy order, and the little dark iron adventurer didn't mean to be afraid at all?!
Now Michelle is a little shaken, wondering if Merlin is really a hidden powerhouse?
"Merlin, isn't that... a bit too much?" Alice was a little worried that she would not be able to end it. After all, this escort work was a lot of oil and water, she didn't want to give up.
"What's this? I'm already saving face without drawing the sword." Mei Lin responded lightly.
"Uh……"
Although Alice knew Merlin quite well, she really didn't tear her skin off her skin deliberately. She was already very polite.
But the others around felt that Merlin's remarks were very arrogant, without the minimum respect.
"You bastard dare to break my finger?!" Myron gritted his teeth and said, having been in the Qiangwei family for decades, everyone respected him, and today he was humiliated by a low-level adventurer, and his lungs suddenly exploded.
"So what?" Merlin raised his chin proudly, looking at people through his nostrils.
"I think you are looking for death!" Mellen blew his beard and stared, and the golden vindictiveness began to loom, and he was already fighting.
Kyle felt that something was a bit bad, and couldn't help but ask Duke Rose in a low voice, "Master Duke, what should you do now?"
"Whatever." Duke Qiangwei only replied with two words, making it clear that he would not intervene. Moreover, his knight commander was humiliated, and he also hoped that Merlin would be beaten to find teeth.
Kyle couldn't help but walked up to Mellen and said hurriedly, "Teacher, please calm down, Lord Merlin is not a bad person."
"Kel, you get out of me!" Mellen cursed, and said angrily, "When will you be able to point fingers at me?!"
