Chapter 188: Undercurrent of Enemies?
“What’s going on? Why is this happening?!”
As he scanned the ruins, he realized for the first time how insignificant his existence was...
"Bastards! Bastards! I want you all to go to hell together!!"
Lancer slammed the ground hard, completely ignoring his bloody right hand, but now no one could alert him...
------
Although Lanser speculated that this might be related to Fengshang, he didn't think so when he saw the other party's interested look. Although he suspected that this might be a trap, everyone here was using imperial tools, so what could ordinary soldiers do? So Lanser was secretly on guard, but he didn't say anything directly, and just quietly followed everyone forward.
However, an uneasy premonition lingered in him. Was it just an illusion?
When approaching the forest, Lancer stopped for a while on the pretext of being a non-combatant. When others expressed their concern for his safety, he answered, "No problem. I'm confident that we can escape." Then everyone entered the forest together.
Only Esdeath, who saw through his intention, just glanced at him. Lancer found it strange, but it was a good thing to avoid conflict for the time being.
------
"Ouch! It's Lancer! What's going on? Why are you here!"
Lubbock was startled when he suddenly saw Lancer appear from behind. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was Lancer. Today, according to Lancer's prediction, there will definitely be a clash with the hunters, and everyone is on edge. The Empire's General S is no joke, and Najeshitan also admitted that she is no match for him.
"It's okay. How can a member of the night raid be absent?"
"Hey! Let's not talk about this for now. It's best if you come. To be honest, I still have a trauma from that woman last time. It's much easier to deal with her with you."
"Leave it to me!" Having been "tricked" by Lansel last time, she probably wouldn't act rashly again.
------
"Lord Xila! Is the person below the target of this trip? That girl is so cute, she is indeed an angel! I wish I could treat her gently!" A man dressed as a clown twisted his waist, and ordinary people would probably feel sick. But this group of people probably had the habit, or were mentally abnormal, and chose to remain silent in the face of his pornographic remarks.
"Hehe~ That boy, that strong man, or a hot-blooded fool would be good. Ah, strong body, elegant posture, young and passionate, just thinking about it makes my heart beat..." Although she is a beauty, her words are disgusting. People around pretend not to hear it. Anyway, this woman is "interested" every day...
"Hmph! Foolish woman, don't go too far! My goal is actually..." After saying that, he pierced Esdeath with a passionate gaze. Which man doesn't want to conquer the legendary General S? Unfortunately, no one has succeeded so far.
"Tsk, I don't care about you! I just want to find an opponent worth fighting! Jiang Xue has been complaining to me recently..." After saying that, he stroked the knife as if he was stroking the lips of a lover, which made others shudder. If someone is said to have "out of control of desire", this person is simply a pervert. How can someone treat a weapon like this? It is clearly... "Pervert!"
"Nana, Sheila! Where are the test subjects you mentioned? Those pieces of junk are so boring!"
Facing his subordinates, Xila did not respond. Although he was seen as a conceited person by the outside world, as the son of a minister, how could he be without any scheming? Even though he looked arrogant on the surface, he was full of ambition in his heart - his goal was to defeat his father's minister and ascend the throne to become the lord of the capital.
"First and foremost, we need to eliminate these three people! Esdeath, Undertaker, and the stupid General Budd! If you can't deal with Budd, you can just become stepping stones!"
Intelligence shows that the night raid will take place today. This is undoubtedly the best time for Sheila! A good opportunity to solve the biggest problem in one fell swoop!
"Is today's purpose clear?"
"Of course~ But I don't know what kind of opponent we will face in the night raid. Is the legendary undertaker really real? Don't let him be an empty promise~" Cosmia chuckled and shook the imperial weapon in her hand, looking confident.
"Haha, Lord Xila, don't worry! The six of us will capture them all after the night raid and the showdown with the hunters are over!" Yanxin licked his lips, impatiently.
Although he looked down on his subordinates' arrogance, he was very different from those frogs in the well and knew Esdeath's strength. If both sides were to suffer losses, he might take action; otherwise, he would definitely evacuate the woman quickly. Although he wanted to kill her, his reason told him not to act hastily!
"In that case, let's go in!"
With that, he led the way toward where the hunter had disappeared.
-------
After finding Lubbock with the help of clues, the two came to the camp for the night attack.
"Mr. Lancer! Brother Lancer!" Unexpectedly, Tatsumi's call immediately turned into a painful groan, as if Brand had taught him a lesson.
"Idiot! The enemy may appear at any time and anywhere..."
"I'm sorry, brother, I'm just too excited..."
Looking at Tatsumi who was curled up in a ball, Brand shook his head and smiled bitterly. The scene before him reminded him of his youth...
