Chapter 1214 Insider
footprint!
There are more than one set of footprints in the room belonging to what appears to be an ape raider.
In addition to the footprints left when entering through the window and fighting, there are also footprints of the other party in other places in the room.
To put it simply, it was not the first time that the other party entered Perikna's room.
If only this attacker from the Ape sect was like this, Kieran would still guess that the other party was stepping on the spot. But when he discovered that the footprints of the hider from the Snake sect were the same as the former, Kieran narrowed his eyes.
"They are..."
"Looking for something?"
Qin Ran guessed.
Later, when he walked out of the room and saw more traces, this suspicion was confirmed.
"Hide your identity and look for something."
Kieran, who squinted his eyes, subconsciously turned around and looked at the room where Perikna lived.
Without hesitation, Kieran started searching.
But this time, he didn't find anything until Maxim and Celty were brought by the female leader of the Snake Faction.
"not here?"
Qin Ran frowned slightly and looked at the female leader of the Snake Faction.
However, he did not ask the other party directly.
Kieran did not forget the original purpose.
"Do you recognize him?"
Qin Ran asked, thinking about the two Crow Faction people.
"Aikman?"
"Why is he here?"
After seeing the bloody head clearly, Celty let out a series of exclamations, and then looked at her friend who looked equally surprised.
"Aikman was once one of my competitors."
Maxim and his friend looked at each other and then said matter-of-factly.
"competitor?"
"Shou Crow?"
Qin Ran asked.
"No, no no."
"It's not the position of the first crow, but the position of the record holder in the crow sect. At that time, he was considered my strongest opponent among many competitors."
Maxim waved his hands and explained.
"So, he can be regarded as one of the core figures of the Crow Faction?"
Qin Ran continued to ask.
Faced with this question, Maxim and Celty nodded at the same time.
This is a fact that cannot be denied.
But with this admission, the two of them couldn't help but feel excited.
The two of them almost subconsciously thought of the rumors about the Wolf Faction: 'In addition to being maverick, the White Wolf is more moody! '
Facing a character who allows his own preferences to determine his behavior, especially when this character is extremely powerful, everyone will feel great pressure.
Neither Maxim nor Celty wanted to be in trouble.
Therefore, the next moment, Maxim took the initiative and said: "Sir, please give me a few days, and I will investigate the whole matter."
"Um."
Qin Ran nodded.
Immediately, Maxim and Celty turned around and left with relief.
The Crow Faction people almost passed by Count Shirin, who arrived later.
After the two parties nodded to each other, they went their separate ways.
"It seems that I am really an incompetent guy."
Looking at the corpse, the young earl, who was temporarily responsible for the security of the Warren Palace, couldn't help but smile bitterly.
For this young man, this kind of thing happened one after another after he just took over the palace. If he hadn't been mentally strong, he would have been hit to the point of collapse.
"Can you tell me what happened?"
The young earl looked at Kieran and Perikna.
"tell him."
Qin Ran said this.
The female leader of the Snake Sect started talking immediately. However, the female leader concealed the part about Qin Ran's suspicion and only expressed her own guess.
"Snake sect and ape sect?"
"Is it because you are here?"
Hearing the words of the female leader of the Snake Faction, the young earl frowned.
As the person who is temporarily in charge of the Warren Palace, even if he is temporarily acting on behalf of this position, the young earl very much wants to exclude unstable factors such as the female leader of the Snake Faction.
But……
After the young earl glanced at Qin Ran, he sighed helplessly.
Not to mention that he wanted something from the other party, just the close status between the other party and Mary made him helpless.
"Okay, I know."
"I will rearrange the soldiers on the defense."
"Well, good night, Sir 2567."
"Good night, Count Shirin."
After saying good night to each other, the young earl saluted Qin Ran, then turned and left.
With Count Shirin leaving, only Kieran and Perikna were left.
"How did you contact the people from the Ape Faction?"
Qin Ran suddenly asked.
"I can't contact people from the Ape Sect directly. I just spread some information through underground gangs, and each sect will have people who pay attention to this information."
Perikna answered.
The female leader of the Snake Faction did not ask Qin Ran about his specific guess.
She understands who she is.
Also know what to ask and what not to ask.
"Um."
Kieran did not doubt Perikna's statement.
At this moment, he was confident that the other party would not lie to him.
Of course, even so, Kieran didn't just share with the other party some of the things he had just guessed.
The other party can only be regarded as a reasonably qualified collaborator.
As for the rest?
Kieran would never consider it.
Therefore, Qin Ran said very directly.
"I need to know some secret knowledge of the Snake Faction."
"Okay, my lord."
Perikna nodded without any hesitation.
If Perikna still hesitated about Qin Ran's request before discovering her identity as the 'abandoned son', she needed to consider it.
Not even thinking about it at the moment.
Perikna only had hatred for the snake sect who regarded her as an 'abandoned son' and killed all her companions.
Thick hatred like burning flames!
Perikna had already made her own plans on how to take revenge on this snake sect.
With the help of Kieran’s power!
That's right, it's all about leveraging the power of others.
Before she is strong enough, Perikna doesn't mind using external forces, just like assassins habitually use props and shadows.
Therefore, Perikna would unconditionally satisfy Kieran's request.
Even if it is some excessive demands.
Unfortunately, throughout the night, Kieran was only learning the mysterious knowledge about the Snake Sect, and did not reveal any other meaning at all. Even if Perikna took the initiative several times, it was the same, and even caused Kieran's dissatisfaction. , forcing her to devote herself to teaching.
Then, Perikna was shocked by Kieran's learning ability.
She was certain that Kieran had never been exposed to the secret knowledge of these snake sects, but in just a few hours, Kieran mastered the basics.
You know, it took her several months to reach this level.
"Is this the difference between people?"
The female leader of the Snake Faction said unconsciously.
"We are different."
It is indeed different. Qin Ran, who possesses expert-level [mysterious knowledge], not only learns by analogy, but also acts as a strategic advisor when learning similar mysterious knowledge.

…
Qin Ran looked at the new system prompts and nodded with satisfaction. After saying hello to the female leader of the Snake Faction, he stood up and walked out.
However, it is not about returning to the room.
Although Kieran can't wait to use the [Snake Sect Secret Technique Record Essence], he will not forget why the two pretenders came last night.
He may not know.
But he was sure that there was someone in the Warren Palace who knew what the two pretenders were looking for.
