The Devil’s Cage

Chapter 791 Dancing in the Wind

Not only Conti reacted, but also Rehard, Lie, and the remaining three heterogeneous knights.

Without any orders, everyone started looking for it.

But……

Nothing!

Taking the corpse of the heterogeneous knight as the center and including the entire convoy, nothing was found. It was not until the unwilling Candy expanded the scope of the search that the strangeness was discovered.

"here!"

Canti was standing outside a bush in the distance, waving.

Everyone walked over quickly, and when they walked around the bushes, everyone's body was shocked.

A huge cauldron was placed behind the bushes, and there was still warm green soup in it, exuding an inexplicable pungent smell.

"This, what is this?"

Rehard, Lie, and the remaining three heterogeneous knights looked at each other, not knowing why.

In the end, everyone and the aliens turned their attention to Qin Ran who was walking slowly.

Qin Ran looked at the cauldron, and then looked at the direction of the convoy.

The straight-line distance between the two is at least hundreds of meters, and with the cover of the bushes, it is definitely impossible to see clearly from the position just now.

But once you get close, the pungent smell can't be hidden.

"fine!"

After silently muttering a sentence in his heart, Qin Ran signaled Leihard and Lie to search the area carefully, and waved at the three heterogeneous knights, arranging to protect the convoy.

Kieran, on the other hand, followed Kandy's example and expanded the scope of the search.

"strangeness!"

"how can that be possible?"

"Even if the neck was twisted by a special force, the wound on the head must have blood, but why is there no trace left?"

Kandy involuntarily followed behind Qin Ran, muttering to himself.

Qin Ran listened to the other party talking to himself, but did not answer.

Conti, however, is clearly different.

"Did you find something?"

Conti asked directly.

"No!"

Qin Ran shook his head.

"Really do not have?"

"But your expression just now..."

Kandy looked at Qin Ran suspiciously.

Although he has not been in contact with Qin Ran for a long time, Kandy also knows that Qin Ran is a thoughtful person and extremely cautious.

Such a strange murder appeared beside someone like Qin Ran, and Qin Ran's performance was a bit too ordinary.

No!

Nor can it be said to be bland.

you could say so……

Conti frowned, trying to describe how she felt, but couldn't find an adjective at all.

"I'm thinking about the other party's intention to do this!"

Qin Ran said so.

"intention?"

A puzzled look appeared on Conti's face.

"You can ask Herbert about some things."

After Qin Ran finished speaking like this, he stopped answering, but searched the surroundings extremely meticulously.

This search lasted for nearly an hour.

But apart from the cauldron that Candy found, there was nothing.

Qin Ran turned around and walked quickly towards the convoy.

And Kandy, who had been following Qin Ran for nearly an hour, looked at Qin Ran with more and more puzzled eyes.

"I think we should go back to Carhartt Barracks and make an adjustment - we're facing an enemy we don't understand at all, and the defenses at the barracks are still reassuring... I don't want more people to die from this A weird method!"

As soon as he returned to the convoy, Herbert, who had been waiting for a long time, said.

At the same time, a note was handed to Qin Ran.

It said: Shudering Castle is safe, nothing will happen.

Even though only two people could see it, the old scholar was very careful to hide the key words.

"Believe me, sometimes there are too many people is not a good thing!"

"The goal remains the same!"

"Continue to move towards Shudering Castle!"

After Qin Ran finished speaking, he got into his own carriage.

Facing Qin Ran's insistence on going his own way, Herbert shrugged helplessly.

For the rest of the people, except for Kandy who frowned, no one objected.

Leihard and Lie who are dominated by Qin Ran will not oppose Qin Ran.

Qin Ran's status as a "royal family" and his strength are enough for the three heterogeneous knights to know what to do.

The convoy is on the road again.

Following Qin Ran's carriage, Kandy asked Herbert in a low voice.

When a note full of words appeared in Kandy's hands, the former bounty hunter couldn't help but widen his eyes.

Kanti looked at the picture roughly describing the conversation between Herbert and Kieran in Herbert's handwriting, and the text full of Herbert's own guesses, couldn't help but exclaimed in his heart: "Witch?!"

As the new generation of "Guardian" of the ancient city of Aesop, Kandy is inextricably linked with the Nick dynasty, so it is natural that he has never heard of witches.

She even knew some secrets about witches.

Thinking of the crucible he saw just now, Kandy couldn't sit still anymore.

"Your Excellency Herbert, I'll go back as soon as I go!"

After handing over the reins of the carriage to Herbert, Kanti walked towards the carriage where Kieran was.

Just like before.

Qin Ran's body was sunk in the soft cushion, his whole face was full of thought.

"Why didn't you tell me that the witch is after you?"

"Do you know how scary those guys are?"

"We should follow His Excellency Herbert's suggestion and return to Carhart Barracks. At least it's your territory. It won't be so easy for them to arrange!"

Conti said repeatedly as soon as he entered the carriage.

"You know witches well?"

Qin Ran looked at Kandy in surprise.

"certainly!"

"The ancient city of Aesop once fought a ten-year war with a certain group of witches—those guys were not only good at refining all kinds of weird potions, but also cast unheard of curses, and even some of the most powerful guys, It can also peek into the future...Damn it, why didn't I think that the scene just now was written by a witch?"

Kandy cursed, and looked at Qin Ran with an extremely solemn expression, and she said, "I know your strength, and I will never deny it, but no matter how powerful you are, you can't avoid the poisonous arrows in the dark! Witches are best at making poisonous arrows!"

"Thanks!"

Qin Ran nodded.

"You agreed to return?"

Kandy looked at Qin Ran in surprise.

In her impression, Qin Ran was not such a persuasive person.

"No, it's just what you told me, I will remember it!"

"Those mice hiding in the gutter, once they meet the sun, they will have nowhere to hide!"

"I will let them understand how terrible the consequences of messing with me are!"

Qin Ran said in a deep voice, and the colorful lights emerged from his eyes again between the words.

Xie Yi's domineering power made Kandy, who was still trying to persuade him, stagnate.

Kanti looked at Qin Ran in front of her, and she suddenly realized that the person in front of her had already changed drastically from the person in her impression.

Feeling at a loss, Kanti left Kieran's carriage, silently returned to his own carriage, and took the reins from Herbert.

"What happened?"

The old scholar looked at Conti's expression and asked.

"No, nothing."

Conti concealed his emotions and began to concentrate on driving the carriage.

The speed of the convoy suddenly increased.

Moreover, there were no accidents on the subsequent journey.

Originally, it was necessary to rush to Shudering Castle in one day. After a day and half night, the outline of the castle appeared in Kieran's sight.

Also present is...

Corpse!

Hanged on a roadside tree, the body of a heterogeneous knight.

There were five corpses in total, swaying back and forth in the night wind, like waving arms, as if welcoming Qin Ran and his party.
