The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 1200 You Never Know Who You Have Offended

Next to the collapsed tailor shop, a family of three got off a dilapidated carriage.

Husband, wife and son.

The three of them were tired of their travels. The adults looked happy to have survived the disaster and returned home, while the children bit their fingers and looked at everything in confusion.

It seems that they don't understand the expressions of their father and mother.

One by one items were moved off the carriage, and the locked door was reopened.

We had only been away for a few days, and most of the things did not need to be cleaned. There was only some dust, which quickly disappeared under the cleaning of my hard-working wife.

The items were arranged one by one by the husband.

But a tapestry lacks the pressed hardwood.

You mean nails?

Do not make jokes.

As one of the most valuable things in the home, neither the wife nor the husband could damage this tapestry with nails.

Even though it's less than a third of the size of a normal door curtain.

"Get a piece of wood."

"Old Jamie next door should have a lot."

"The house is in ruins. It's not too much for us to take a piece or two. At most, when he comes back, we can invite him to have dinner with us."

The wife said this.

The husband nodded and walked out the door. When he passed by his child, he touched the child's head and showed a gentle smile.

"Stay here. If anything happens, just call your mother."

"I'll go find two pieces of wood over there."

The husband said as he walked towards the ruined tailor shop.

Looking at such ruins, the husband couldn't help but sigh.

"I hope old Jamie won't see this."

"no no."

"It's better to see it. At least it proves that he is still alive."

As soon as the words came out, the husband realized that he had said the wrong thing and immediately changed his words. Then, he walked into the ruins, hoping to find one or two pieces of useful wood.

Obviously, this is not an easy task.

It took the husband more than ten minutes to pick up two complete pieces of wood.

Shaking the dust off the wood, the husband turned around and prepared to go home.

But when he turned around, he realized that the child who had been squatting in front of his door was missing. Suddenly, the husband's body was shocked.

But in the next moment, he walked towards his home as if nothing happened.

"Little Jimmy! Little Jimmy!"

The husband yelled as he walked, but there was no answer.

Not only did his children not respond, but his wife also didn't respond.

"What are you doing?"

The husband grumbled and moved on.

But when he was still one meter away from the door of his house, the husband threw the two pieces of wood in his hand straight away.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The sharp sound of breaking through the air was like a thrown javelin.

The husband who threw the two pieces of wood kept his upper body motionless and pointed his toes on the ground, shooting backwards like an arrow off the string.

But immediately, the opponent flew back even faster.

boom!

The husband broke down the door of his house and crawled there tremblingly.

pain!

The heartbreaking pain spread from the area where he was kicked to his whole body.

With just one kick, the opponent understood that his attacker was not only quick with his kicks, but also knew the structure of the human body well and knew where to hit to cause excruciating pain.

Then, when the husband gritted his teeth and was about to get up and fight to the death, the other party finally saw the situation in the room clearly.

A young girl is sitting in a chair.

His 'wife' and 'child' lay unconscious at each other's feet.

"Mary James!"

When he saw the iconic blond hair and blue eyes, the other party exclaimed.

Of course, Mary was not the reason for the other party to panic.

It's because the other party knows that Mary's appearance must be followed by another person.

Evil!

When he saw the black figure out of the corner of his eye, the opponent's body could not help but tremble. The poison hidden in his teeth was about to touch it several times, but he finally gave up.

It’s not that I don’t dare.

It’s not just greed for life and fear of death.

It's just that the other party remembered the fact that the 'evil' controlled the corpse and manipulated the soul.

That is a very clear record!

He watched it more than once.

Because of this, he felt fear.

Even death cannot relieve us, what misfortune and despair it is.

And when such despair spreads, how can the other party not tremble.

"What do you want to do?"

The other party asked.

And the answer Qin Ran gave was a blow from his hand.

Snapped!

Very simply, the other party fainted and fell to the ground.

No need to ask.

Or, to be more precise, it's not time to ask yet.

Mary watched in confusion as Kieran tied up the three prisoners, but said nothing. She knew that Kieran must have his own reasons for doing so.

Following Qin Ran, Mary watched as Qin Ran returned to the Warren Palace with the three captives.

Similarly, she also saw Maxim and Celty appearing at the entrance of the palace with a group of people.

There were not many people, even fewer than those who had participated in the war before, only about ten people.

"grown ups."

"That's all the manpower I can muster."

Maxim looked at Qin Ran who was approaching and said very shyly.

If possible, Maxim would not even want to face Kieran directly, even though he knew that Kieran asking him to gather everyone was not a test.

But he was full of confidence when he left.

Naturally, those who did not belong to the same branch as him could not be summoned, but at the time, Maxim thought that the men under his command were a sure thing.

However, reality gave him a loud slap in the face.

When he sent out the call signal, except for the ten people around him, the remaining people either did not respond or simply refused.

And he was told directly that he would join someone else.

Such a result was unacceptable to Maxim.

But the cruelty of the facts forced him to swallow a bitter pill.

He knew why this happened.

However, it was precisely because of this knowledge that it made him more painful.

He doesn't have the decisiveness a leader should have.

Maxim, who faced his mistake, lowered his head in pain. He did not dare to look at Kieran's expression.

Any contempt or ridicule would be fatal to him at this time.

"Well done."

Kieran's voice sounded.

Maxim was stunned.

He raised his head in disbelief and looked at Qin Ran, hoping to find something.

But Qin Ran's seemingly constant expression made him see nothing.

"Sir, you don't need to comfort me."

Maxim shook his head with a wry smile.

"No comfort for you."

"There were at least ten more people, which was a lot better than I imagined - which would have been single digits or none."

"There are ten people, which means you are kinder than I thought."

Qin Ran said and walked towards the palace.

He had more important things to do, and he didn't have time to chat with Maxim. The reason he was able to talk to him was because he brought more people than he imagined.

Looking at Kieran's back, Maxim opened his mouth again and again, wanting to say something, but when the words came to his lips, they turned into thanks.

"Thanks."

Maxim said, raising his hand and waving.

His friends and men followed Qin Ran into the palace.

Then, the sky gradually darkened.

One after another, strange figures quickly approached the Warren Palace through darkness and shadows.

The leader looked at the seemingly heavily guarded Warren Palace and sneered disdainfully.

"The frog in the well!"

"You never know who you have offended!"

puff!

Before the sneer fell, the other party's head was already flying high.
