After hearing the soldiers' reports, the people present looked different.

Qin Ran's face maintained a habitual indifference and indifferent look.

Mary was disgusted.

Earl Xilin looked contemptuous.

You should know that before the news of victory came out, the messenger sent by the old Earl Will personally told the people present that the reinforcements led by the other party were still four days away from Leldry. Just two days after the news of victory came out, the other party had already arrived twenty kilometers below Leldry.

"After two days of rushing, Old Earl Will is really good at commanding troops."

"This speed is really admirable."

Mary said this.

The words are full of sarcasm.

In front of Qin Ran, Mary had no intention of concealing her thoughts.

As for the Earl of Xilin next to him?

Sorry, when I saw Qin Ran, Mary automatically ignored the rest.

"What are you going to do?"

Qin Ran asked.

He does not intend to interfere too much in these matters.

Because, Qin Ran knew very well that Mary was Warren's successor, and eventually, she would become Warren's queen.

And he?

It is impossible to stay by her side all the time.

"I?"

Mary was slightly stunned and subconsciously wanted to ask Qin Ran, but immediately, the smart princess understood what was going on.

Qin Ran's two "outs" were enough to remind Mary.

Although she really wanted to travel with Qin Ran, the education she received since childhood made her unable to give up her responsibilities.

Contradiction makes the young prince contemplate.

But soon, the young princess put aside these things.

At least, Qin Ran is right in front of her now, isn’t she?

So……

"I hope to see this old count alone and give him a reward."

Mary said this.

“It’s better to be in Lealdri.”

After pausing for a moment, Mary added.

Pa, pa.

Earl Shilin applauded softly, and admiration appeared in his eyes when he looked at Mary.

It is not surprising that it was possible to think of such a way by separating the old Earl Will from 20,000 reinforcements in the name of commendation and controlling them under his own palm.

But considering Mary's age, it is rare.

"I can't wait to see that old count."

"The last time I met was a few years ago."

Earl Xilin sighed.

Of course, such sighs are still full of ridicule.

Moreover, from beginning to end, the young earl was not worried that the old earl would not come.

after all……

Earl Xilin looked at Qin Ran beside Mary, and suddenly lamented in her heart for the old count who had not seen for a long time.

I'm afraid it's hard for the other party to make a decision at this time.

Are you putting yourself in the control of others?

Or should I choose to face a strong man who goes to the next army by one?

If it were him, it would be a headache.

While the messenger brought the news to Old Earl Will, a convoy began to slowly drive out of Warren's camp.

This convoy was escorted by a team of guards from the former Thunder Fortress, accompanied by Qin Ran and Earl Xilin.

The only horse in the entire fleet was on the way, and James VIII was lying on a soft bed, with her already pale face, and at this moment it looked even more pale in the sun.

Everyone can see that His Majesty the King is about to run out of energy and may die at any time.

But no one will raise it at this time.

Under the premise of a big victory, it is enough to cover up many shortcomings.

Even the weakness and compromise of His Majesty was hidden by the glory of victory at this moment.

At least, he is still a kind Majesty.

Mary sat in front of the soft bed and whispered to take care of her father.

Qin Ran and Count Xilin walked aside.

“I hope to reach an agreement with you.”

Looking at Qin Ran beside him, Earl Xilin said very simply.

This time, without Mary's disturbance, the young count expressed his thoughts.

"I hope to obtain the highest secret of the Snakes."

"I know this request is rude, but please believe me. I have no malice. I just hope to use the highest secret of the Snake Sect to complete the secret technique in my family: the snake turns into a dragon!"

"This is my only chance to track the pace of my ancestors."

"Please agree to my request."

"For this, I am willing to share all the family secrets with you, and I can promise you three that do not violate the glory of the Xilin family."

The young Count looked at Qin Ran with a sincere look on his face.

The highest mystery of the snake school?

Qin Ran was stunned and then thought of the attributes that were stimulated when fighting with the "King of the Grassland".

Undoubtedly, Earl Xilin in front of him had some misunderstanding about this.

However, Qin Ran did not explain.

Faced with Earl Xilin, who was only better than strangers, Qin Ran naturally retained it habitually, but Qin Ran was very interested in the secret technique of the Xilin family proposed by Earl Xilin.

Therefore, after a little contemplation, Qin Ran said.

“I need to think about it.”

"certainly!"

"Things like this must be considered!"

The young Count who was not rejected immediately was overjoyed.

The worst situation did not happen, which was enough to represent the hope of fulfilling his long-cherished wish.

As long as he shows enough sincerity!

Thinking of this, the young Count made a decision secretly.

Qin Ran did not pay attention to the thoughts of the young count beside him. When the other party mentioned the "Snake Sect", Qin Ran thought of the leader of the Snake Sect who escaped the net.

And, naturally, from the other party, I thought of the seven pieces of parchment paper.

Qin Ran was quite sure that the other party would not give up the seven pieces of parchment paper. He just needed to use this as bait and the other party would definitely appear.

However, compared to this method, Qin Ran has a better way.

Ga!

A command was issued, and the fire crow, who was in the same mind as Qin Ran, whistled, and flew into Lealdri like a flash of lightning.

Although the fire crow is magical, it still cannot reach the level of locking a certain target in a city with a population of 100,000.

But it is absolutely possible to do the opposite.

Fire Crow cannot lock a target.

But it is OK to let some people lock in the Fire Crow.

For example: Crows!
