Just as all three men fell in the secret chamber, a faint rustling sound came from a nearby ventilation duct. A few minutes later, a slightly chubby raven squeezed out of the duct.
This raven was the last marker for locating the targets, with its primary task being to help Leonard Ethan pinpoint the specific locations of people inside the chamber and guide him to launch his attacks using his skill.
Although these people did check the ventilation ducts and make some defense before the negotiation, they never expected that an animal could pass through such a complex network of pipes.
Of course, to avoid being detected, the raven did not directly enter the secret chamber through the ventilation duct but chose to pinpoint the locations from a bend in a nearby pipe by listening.
Ravens have much better hearing than humans, so even the slightest sounds inside the chamber would be captured and used to locate the targets' specific positions.
