Chapter 1683 Tied

Who is the strongest?

Upon hearing Qin Ran's question, the strangers present were stunned.

Do you want to choose the strongest and most representative person to talk to?

still……

Ready to establish your authority?

No one knew what Kieran meant by asking this question, but among the strangers, someone still came out.

He was tall, with a handsome face, and was wearing a blue and white long coat. Even if it was stained with a little blood, it did not hinder the other person's grace at all.

It can even be said that it adds a strange and evil feeling to the other party.

Many strangers looked at this man without saying anything to stop him or objecting.

Obviously, among the strangers left behind, the other party is really the strongest.

But Kieran raised his eyebrows when he looked at the other party.

weak!

too weak!

Weaker than he thought!

The stranger in front of him was not even as good as a loose stone.

However, even if it is loose stone...

Thinking of the speculation that just appeared in his mind, Qin Ran shook his head slightly.

However, such a shake of the head clearly misunderstood the stranger who came out.

"My lord, do you think I am not the strongest among this group of people?"

Although he was frightened by Qin Ran's strength, the other party still asked.

Because it's about his glory.

Moreover, the other party didn't think what Qin Ran would do to him.

In the previous battle, Kieran asked his two weirdos to avoid them, and the people standing around them were enough to represent Kieran's identity as a herder.

The alliance between the Shepherds and the Inhumans is well known.

Even, to some extent, herders need to rely on strangers.

Therefore, strangers are born with a psychological advantage when facing herders, and this advantage allows them to sometimes make wrong judgments.

Facing the other party's inquiry, Qin Ran ignored it.

Having already received the answer, Qin Ran was about to turn around and leave.

Seeing Qin Ran who was about to turn around and leave, the stranger became anxious.

"Wait, please explain..."

The stranger wanted to stop Qin Ran, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, there was a hint of coldness in Qin Ran's eyes.

Facing this coldness, the stranger took several steps back as if struck by lightning. On the last step, his steps became unsteady and he stumbled to the ground.

thump!

The opponent fell there in an ugly posture.

But the people around him didn't laugh at him.

Because these people were also frightened by the coldness flashing in Qin Ran's eyes.

Just like the frost in June, it instantly cools the heart.

Seeing Qin Ran and his entourage leaving, no one dared to speak.

They were really frightened.

Before meeting Kieran, they had never thought that a person could be so terrifying, that it only took one look to make people's hearts tremble.

After watching Qin Ran and his entourage disappear completely, these strangers looked at each other in confusion.

They had no idea what Qin Ran wanted to do.

Stop talking about these strange strangers.

Paradia, Lucan and Ponnard, who were following Kieran, were also full of doubts.

And the Minotaur and the Horsehead?

How could two weirdos who completely followed Kieran's orders not think so much.

The two of them felt the hard-won sunshine and were very excited.

Although the [Sioudi Stone] gives them more restraints, it also gives them protection. At least, they no longer need to avoid the sun like snakes and scorpions.

The Minotaur stretched out its hoof and stepped on the Horsehead's shadow happily.

The horse-headed monster poked the minotaur's shadow with a long knife, as if poking the minotaur.

The two weirdos were playing like children.

This continued until we left the city and entered the outskirts of the city.

"Sir, there are predators here!"

"Well, you need to be careful!"

The Minotaur and the Horse-headed Monster each said one sentence at a time.

"Is it a monster with the head of a crocodile and the body of a chicken that makes no sound when it flaps its wings?"

Palladia asked.

"yes."

"Have you met?"

"The reason why you didn't get eaten is because the adults are by your side, right?"

The Minotaur nodded and asked simply.

This made Palladia's face darken, and she snorted coldly and turned her head.

Of course he wanted to refute.

Can……

That's the truth.

If it wasn't for Kieran, he would have been eaten long ago.

At this time, Ponard walked up to Palladia and asked in a low voice for information about the predator. After knowing the general information, the expression of the herder from the Bay Area became more solemn.

This place was scarier than he imagined.

At night, there are monsters of the night.

During the day, there are daytime monsters.

If you act alone, it is difficult to ensure your own safety.

Because humans need to rest.

No one can guarantee that they will keep their eyes open and awake while sleeping.

Therefore, team formation has become inevitable.

fortunately!

Ponard looked at Lucan, then at Kieran and Palladia, feeling slightly relieved.

There is no doubt about Lucan's strength.

Kieran was even more terrifyingly strong.

Palladia also performed exceptionally well in the temporary camp. Although he was not at the top, he could occasionally enter the top ten. Moreover, Ponard always suspected that Palladia was hiding himself.

Just like him.

With such a group of teammates, you can rest assured about safety.

only……

Pennard looked at Qin Ran quietly.

He felt that Kieran was too difficult to figure out.

Just like the behavior just now.

In his opinion, it was not necessary at all.

When strangers or monsters appear, quietly retreating and hiding the Minotaur and Horsehead as trump cards at critical moments is the best choice.

The inquiry just now also left him confused.

But Ponnard, who was self-aware, did not ask.

He was unwilling to disrupt the good situation in front of him.

In other words, he is self-aware.

He knew his weight in Qin Ran's heart.

The group of people moved forward amid the vigilance of the Minotaur and the Horse-headed Monster, until they came to a forest. The Horse-headed Monster shrugged its nose and snorted.

"Sir, there is no smell of those guys here."

"very safe!"

said the horse-headed monster.

"Set up camp."

Qin Ran glanced around and after confirming that it was correct, nodded.

Immediately, the Minotaur and Horsehead took action.

The two monsters waved their weapons and instantly cleared a clearing in the forest, while Paradia raised a bonfire.

Lucan, who was still seriously injured, fell asleep leaning against the bonfire when it was lit.

Ponnard hunted several hares in the woods.

With a very neat technique, the hare was skinned, skewered, and placed on the campfire. After a while, the scent of rabbit meat wafted out.

"Want to try it?"

Ponard asked the Minotaur and Horsehead.

Although the two are weird, there is no harm in having a good relationship within one's own camp.

Moreover, in Ponard's mind, it is really not too easy to use food to buy weirdness.

In fact, in the eyes of most herders, strange behaviors are very simple. Except for some cases due to hatred, the rest are predatory behaviors.

Of course, weird food is naturally different from ordinary food.

Therefore, when roasting the rabbit, Ponard put in some soul crystals.

Soul crystal is the crystallization of soul.

There is a certain possibility of obtaining it when destroying evil spirits.

It is one of the necessary items for alchemy.

It is also one of the favorite foods of weird people.

However, facing Ponard's invitation, the Minotaur and Horsehead were completely indifferent. They looked at Kieran blankly.

Or to be precise, Kieran's backpack.

There were mimosa and food prepared for Kieran.

The eyes of the Minotaur and Horsehead are full of longing.

I hope Kieran can share some of the food in his backpack with them.

The food there has long made them salivate.

If the backpack hadn't been Kieran's, they would have snatched it long ago.

Facing the gazes of the Minotaur and Horsehead, Kieran was unmoved at all. He raised his hand to his backpack and took out one of the food items.

It's beef rice with sauce.

The sauce is frozen into a jelly-like texture and tightly wraps the rice.

A few minutes after the lunch box was placed on the campfire, a rich aroma filled the camp.

Lucan woke up from his sleep.

Paradia, who was thinking, also came back to his senses.

Ponnard was the first to be attracted.

Especially when Kieran opened the lunch box, the aroma seemed to explode, spreading in all directions at a level that was several times greater than before.

The Minotaur and Horsehead looked at Kieran pitifully, swallowing their saliva.

After realizing that Qin Ran didn't pay attention to him at all, they all took the roast rabbit from Ponard with full of grievance.

"Pooh!"

"It tastes terrible!"

“Bad cooking!”

“Waste of food!”

The Minotaur and the Horse-headed Monster rarely stood on the same front, making similar comments about the roasted rabbit in their hands.

WTF? !

Ponnard felt that his previous idea of ​​trying to win over two weirdos was simply stupid. This kind of weirdo was completely impossible to win over.

At this time, Qin Ran finished his first portion of food.

The Minotaur and Horsehead threw the barbecue in their hands and rushed towards Kieran.

"Sir, do you need to wash the lunch box?"

"give it to me!"

"No!"

"Sir, please leave it to me!"

The two people rubbed their hands in a strange and flattering manner, bowed their heads and said.

"Need not."

Kieran said lightly, put the empty lunch box back into his backpack, took out a new lunch box and placed it next to the campfire.

Immediately, the two weird people returned to the campfire, staring at the new lunch box, and picked up the barbecue again.

"It's like chewing wax."

"It's like the last time I ate a fire beetle."

"Besides, it's still sour."

Listening to the two weird words, there was no wave on Ponard's face, but deep down in his heart, words starting with F, 曰, etc. formed a series of complete greetings.

The rich fragrance burst out again as time passed.

This forest hardly blocks the smell of mimosa food.

Even if it's not freshly made.

Many animals were inexplicably attracted.

But the weird auras of the Minotaur and the Horse-headed monster made them dare not go too far.

However, some beings are not afraid of two weirdos.

Roar!

A low roar came from the sky.

The predator with the head of a crocodile and the body of a chicken appeared above everyone's heads. The Minotaur and the Horsehead immediately returned to their original sizes, holding their own weapons and looking at the predator warily.

Lucan, Ponard and Palladia also looked nervous.

Only Qin Ran was different.

He sat there, raised his hand to pick up the lunch box, and opened it just like that.

Click!

In the lunch box are two huge buns.

I don’t know what the fillings are, but the browned skin of the buns makes people move their index fingers just looking at them, and the attention of the Minotaur and Horsehead are unconsciously attracted.

Although the herders told themselves to be vigilant, the tips of their noses still kept twitching.

Aerial predators are no exception.

It shook its crocodile head and rushed straight down.

It's just for food.

Now that we have such delicious food, how can we remain indifferent?

But someone is faster!

Just when the predator was about to land, a white hand slapped it on the cheek!

"Get away!"

With a loud roar, the huge predator flew out horizontally.

boom!

After breaking several big trees, the predator collapsed on the ground, shaking his head and trying to stand up, but he couldn't do it.

Obviously, that slap is definitely not just powerful.

Lucan, Ponard and Palladia looked solemnly at the man who knocked out the Predator with one punch.

Sensing more minotaurs and horse-headed monsters, they looked at the people in front of them as if they were in danger.

However, the visitor ignored these people and used extremely special skills to bypass them in a few flickers and came to Qin Ran.

"I knew that only Luo Ye could make the food I thought of!"

"How about sharing it with me?"

"As long as you give me one-third of the food, I will form an alliance with you in this 'Winter Night War'."

As soon as he stood firm, the person said.

Qin Ran ignored the other party and put the second bun into his mouth.

Such an action made the person who came was so angry that illusory ears appeared on the top of his head, and the tail behind him also disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Palladia stared at the person closely. He felt that the person looked familiar just now, but at this time, he finally remembered who the person was.

"Tatsushi!"

Palladia exclaimed.

Lucan and Ponnard had obviously heard of this name, and their expressions became more and more nervous.

Pine stone doesn't have a good reputation among cattle ranchers.

"You guy!"

"Always so indifferent!"

"Don't you want to be the winner of the 'Winter Night War'?"

"Tell you, I will definitely stop you!"

"If you don't give me food, I'll cause trouble!"

Song Shi said angrily.

She was the first stranger to leave the city. She originally wanted to find a safe place to observe temporarily. Who knows, she smelled the aroma of food before she found the place.

Subconsciously, Song Shi came after the scent of food.

Song Shi has a guess as to where the food comes from.

After seeing Qin, she was not surprised at all.

She didn't think anyone could make food like that.

Just like she didn't think there was another person who could be as inhumane as Kieran.

They were acquaintances after all.

He didn't even give her any food.

"There is no winner in this 'Winter Night War'."

Qin Ran shook his head.

"What's the meaning?"

Song Shiyi frowned.

Although she hated Kieran, she knew that Kieran was not a guy who used words to win others' attention.

To put it simply, Song Shi believed that what Qin Ran said must have discovered something.

Facing Song Shi's gaze, Qin Ran took out the watch he had brought with him before entering the place and threw it into the bonfire. Song Shi simply threw the watch in. She didn't care about it. She was just curious and angry about what she had discovered.

Under the constraints of [The Stone of Siodi], Palladia had no choice.

The herders in the North simply chose to believe in Qin Ran as their savior.

The remaining Ponnard hesitated a little before he followed suit.

He didn't believe Kieran, but he was also curious about what Kieran found.

Moreover, he is unwilling to leave the team.

After everyone made their choice, Qin Ran looked at Song Shi and said slowly -

"Quite simply, we were all lied to."

"Stepping into someone else's trap."

"Especially for people like you, you have become the butt of others."
