Chapter Twenty-Five: The Battle of Fate

"Long time no see!"

Qin Ran responded to the other party. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Then, he noticed that Conti was looking at him with a strange gaze.

It was a look of curiosity, anger, and awe.

When it came into contact with his gaze, the lady who called herself a bounty hunter and was actually a new generation of 'guardians' of the ancient city of Aesop snorted and turned her head straight.

"Eat, eat!"

Baker slurred as he grabbed the pastry on his plate and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Lady Condy, can you take Baker to find some food?"

"That's not enough for him to eat!"

The old scholar said.

"Yes, Lord Herbert!"

Conti nodded respectfully and led the big guy outside.

There is food as a lure. Confused, the big guy left without any complaints.

Immediately, Qin Ran and Herbert were left in the reception room.

"You're actually a 'royal family'...... It was a real surprise! ”

Herbert said.

"To be honest, I was surprised when I found out who I was."

Qin Ran shrugged his shoulders, and the evil aura on his body quickly converged.

Once again, it went back to normal.

The original sins were naturally dissatisfied in the face of such suppression, but in front of Qin Ran's advanced spiritual attributes, those who had no resistance at all were suppressed.

"You still look like this, you make people feel comfortable!"

"How it was before...... It's so scary, Conti is visibly scared! ”

"There aren't many things that can scare Conti, and even in Cardwell, she's shown quite a bit of courage and made that one suffer a lot."

Herbert let out a good-natured laugh.

"Can you tell me more about what happened?"

Qin Ran asked.

"Of course!"

"After you and Aega were wounded in battle and left for a while, everything was as you expected, and the Langton military appeared, they have always known about the existence of the night species and the xenospecies, and they have worked very closely with the two, just like the Kalhat barracks."

"However, the human heart is always not satisfied!"

"When it comes to gaining strong soldiers, some in the military want more 'capital', and Cardwell is one of them, and he thinks he should be in control of everything, not just the night and xeno, but also the legacy of the 'Emperor'!"

"And I'm a pawn that the other party fancies, or the one that was unexpected—because, 2567, you joined my team, and not only killed Bartos, but also Binns, Moshawk, Aga, and other nocturnal species that made Cardwell feel constrained...... So, he thinks that the opportunity has come and there is no need to hide it. ”

Speaking of this, the old scholar smiled bitterly.

No one wants to be used as a pawn, and old scholars are no exception.

Especially when the piece is still 'controlled' at any time.

As he spoke, the old scholar wrote on the low table with his finger: I was forced to drink poison, and I was placed with a device similar to eavesdropping.

Qin Ran looked at it and nodded.

He had expected this.

Then, he said.

"But he ignored me!"

……

"Ignore?"

"I don't dare ignore a 'royal family'!"

Sitting on a couch, Cardwell leaned on a cane in both hands, resting his chin on the back of his hand and muttering softly to himself.

Cardwell is not young anymore.

Gray hair, wrinkled corners of the eyes, and slightly bloated figure all indicate that the other party is old.

But all the people in the tent did not dare to ignore the old man.

Even if the other person is smiling all the time.

"My lord, do we need to activate the emergency filing?"

An adjutant asked.

"Emergency filing?"

"Do you think Carl Hart is a [Flower of Emida] that can impress?"

"It's only going to be more vicious than 2567!"

"And what we need to do is watch it fight with 2567 openly and secretly, and then profit from it...... Do you understand? ”

Cardwell said as he sat up straight and looked at the information about Qin Ran.

This is the latest information sent at noon today, including what Qin Ran ate when he entered the hotel, which is recorded in detail.

The more he looked at it, the more Cardwell frowned.

Formidable opponents are not to be feared.

The scary thing is that this opponent is not only strong, but also cautious.

Fortunately, there is also a guy like Halhart who is entangled with the other party, and he doesn't need to face each other directly.

Stomp, stomp!

A sound of footsteps disrupted Cardwell's thoughts.

Cardwell looked up slightly displeased and saw his lieutenant trotting in.

There were stains on the uniforms, and there were cracks in many places.

There were also cuts on his face, and there were blood stains remaining.

"The temper of the 'royal family' is not good?"

Cardwell said with a smile.

When his lieutenant was sent to deliver the letter, Cardwell guessed what might happen to his lieutenant, and was even ready to recruit another lieutenant to fill the staff team.

After all, there was never a shortage of such people around him.

"My lord, Calhart is dead!"

The adjutant said with a pale face.

In fact, the adjutant's face has been the same since he got the news and learned more about the death of Carl Hart.

"What?!"

"Tell me everything you know!"

Cardwell asked with a low snort.

The adjutant immediately told the news of his inquiry.

The faces of all the people in the tent changed again and again as they spoke.

No hands-on!

Just by summoning animal-like spirits, he killed Kalhat!

Cardwell's face sank like water.

When the scout who then inquired about the news also brought back positive news, Cardwell did not hesitate any longer and directly ordered, "Return to the lair!" ”

"Right now!"

After the order was given with emphasis, the team, which was originally hidden dozens of kilometers away from the Karhat barracks, quickly moved into action.

Without any stops, I found a certain direction and moved forward at full speed.

In a specially made carriage, Cardwell pulled out a ring carved from wood from his close-fitting coat pocket.

He gently wiped a mark on the inside of the ring.

When the key point was touched, the wooden ring quickly burst into flames, and in the middle of a breath it was reduced to ashes.

Looking at the handful of ashes, Cardwell's face felt distressed.

He hadn't thought he would use that power anymore.

I didn't expect it......

“2567、2567!”

Cardwell muttered under his breath.

Immediately, though, Cardwell laughed gloating at the thought of something.

The battle of fate is too exciting.
