Chapter 790 Where Did the Head Go?
Qin Ran was sitting in the reception room chatting with Herbert.
Of course, the words on the lips are all insignificant things, but the real communication is the words written by Shuangfa through fingers.
Suddenly, Qin Ran's writing fingers froze——
[Trigger special event: Battle of Fate]
[Based on your experience and performance in the dungeon world, you cannot refuse this special event! 】
[Battle of Fate: Bearing the title of 'Descendants of the Emperor', 'Royal Family' and 'Royal Family', and being recognized by most of the alien races, under the guidance of Caldwell, you have attracted the old enemy of the original 'Emperor'. The continuation of the war, you need to ensure the victory of the 'Nick Dynasty'! 】
(According to the performance of the event, you will get different clearance evaluations!)
...
Undeniable 【Special Event】?
Qin Ran frowned.
This is the first time he has encountered such a thing.
"Changes due to the 'royal' reputation I've replaced?"
Qin Ran looked at the information in the notes and guessed.
"What happened?"
The old scholar wrote with his fingers dipped in tea.
"I thought of something unexpected!"
"Do you know who the old enemy of the 'Emperor' is?"
Qin Ran shook his head and continued writing.
"The old enemy of the 'Emperor'?"
"At that time, the Nick dynasty had already unified the entire world, and the 'emperor' had almost no enemies, and it was even more impossible for him to have old enemies."
"However... there is another possibility!"
"Witch!"
"I remember it was recorded in some books that when the witches offered the Eye of Cameris, they disappeared without a trace."
"In some book records, witches are also quite powerful. They once had their own country and civilization, but they disappeared without a trace-it seems to have happened after offering the Eye of Cameris to the 'Emperor'; then, that An 'emperor' becomes more and more unscrupulous until the entire dynasty disappears!"
"If it's an old enemy, I think the witch has a great possibility!"
"But only possible!"
After thinking for a while, the old scholar wrote in detail.
Looking at the words on the coffee table, Qin Ran's expression became serious.
Unknown enemy!
This is not a good thing.
A powerful enemy is not to be feared.
Because, no matter how powerful the enemy is, it also has weaknesses.
But the unknown enemy is different!
Just like an assassin shrouded in shadow, when you approach unknowingly, the sharp dagger will cut your throat in the most unexpected way.
"A witch?"
Qin Ran adjusted his sitting posture, and after silently reciting the term in his heart, he looked at the annotation of [Special Event] again.
Among them, Caldwell's name and the word "guidance" are very dazzling.
"It's late at night, you need a good rest!"
"What's the matter, let's talk about it tomorrow!"
Qin Ran said to Herbert like this.
But his finger wrote on the coffee table: Where is Caldwell's lair?
Herbert was shocked.
The old scholar seemed to have guessed what Qin Ran wanted to do, but the old scholar didn't persuade him. He knew very well that his persuasion would be of no use to people like Qin Ran.
Qin Ran, who has confirmed certain things, cannot be persuaded by words alone.
Shudering Castle.
Old scholars wrote down the place name.
At the same time, the old scholar added another line of text: The legacy of the 'emperor' is also there!
Seeing this line of text, Qin Ran's eyes narrowed.
Such a coincidence?
Qin Ran's narrowed eyes sparkled with gleam.
...
"Your Highness, our knights are already following those guys, and they will never run away!"
After Edel walked into the study, he directly bowed and said.
As Herbert and the others were 'escorted', as long as they were not fools, they would be able to guess that there must be a temporary stronghold of Caldwell near the Carhart Barracks.
Qin Ran didn't need to say much, just one look let Yi Deer know what to do.
"Don't let them follow, go directly to Shudering Castle."
"Then, arrange fast horses and necessary supplies for me!"
Qin Ran said.
"Shuderling Castle?"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Idel was taken aback.
It didn't understand Kieran's order, but that didn't prevent it from following.
For Yi Del, whose status has just been promoted to another level and who can obtain the seat qualification in the conference hall, Kieran's order is an irresistible will.
At dawn, a team escorted by four alien knights set off.
Of the three carriages, the last one was full of supplies.
Although the distance between Shudering Castle and Carhart Barracks is not far, it only takes a day if the horse gallops fast, but Idel doesn't care about it at all, it still loads the 'necessary supplies' on the carriage.
Certainly the kind it understands.
Gold and silver utensils, blankets woven from black goat hair, and even fresh ingredients and fruits.
In fact, if it wasn't for Kieran's stop in the end.
This team will become extremely large.
Yi Deer wanted to hang the entire barracks behind Kieran.
"It's really loyal!"
Conti said not only sarcastically but also in praise.
Qin Ran didn't argue, he leaned on a soft cushion and almost buried his upper body in it. There was no satisfaction on his face, only a little thought.
"snort!"
Seeing Qin Ran's appearance, Kandy couldn't help but snorted, turned around and jumped off the carriage.
Immediately, the carriage returned to silence.
However, this silence did not last long.
"ah!"
A scream sounded from outside.
Kieran, who was half leaning there, rushed out of the carriage like lightning.
The body of one of the four alien knights was separated.
The body below the neck was still sitting on the horse's back, but the head above the neck was nowhere to be seen, only the blood sprayed from the chest cavity.
Leihard, Lie and the three heterogeneous knights immediately surrounded Qin Ran, protected him behind him, and looked around vigilantly.
Canti, the Big One, and Herbert also jumped out of the second carriage.
Kanti, who was temporarily acting as the driver of the second carriage, looked at the dead body in horror.
Conti, who had been a bounty hunter for a while, would not become horrified when faced with a dead body at will. What really horrified her was that she did not see the attacker from the beginning to the end.
What she saw was the head of the heterogeneous knight twisted several times by itself before falling to the ground.
Kandy ran quickly to the corpse that had fallen from the horse and inspected it carefully.
The uneven muscles in the neck, the torn skin, and the rubbing marks on the spine all proved that she was right just now.
The neck of the heterogeneous knight was indeed twisted rapidly.
Then, the head was twisted off.
only……
Who did it?
Conti looked up at the people around him, hoping to get some answers.
But everyone who made eye contact with her looked blank.
Apparently no one saw the assailant.
Only Qin Ran was an exception.
"Did you find out?"
Seeing Qin Ran's pensive look, Kandy couldn't help asking.
Qin Ran didn't answer, but just raised his right hand and pointed his head with his index finger.
"What do you mean..."
Before Kandy finished speaking, he reacted.
head?
head!
Where did the alien knight's head go? !
