Comprehensive Manga: Beginning with the King of the Undead

Three days later.

The conference room of the General's Mansion.

Esdeath knocked on the table seriously, and the clear tone cheered up everyone in the room.

"Dr. has not returned for three days, and the soldiers responsible for the search have not found any information so far. Although he is temporarily classified as missing, it is speculated that there is a high chance that he was killed by a 'night raid'."

Seeing the heavy expressions of everyone present, Esdeath slowed down her tone and said, "I'm not blaming you for anything. Dr. fashion is a good reminder."

"Although the overall strength of our 'Hunters' is stronger than that of the 'Night Raid', we cannot take it lightly at any time because the enemy is hidden and we are clear."

Will scratched his head in distress, "That being said, things like this are hard to guard against. Who knows what dirty tricks the other party will do?"

Sai Liu raised his hand and spoke: "Can you use bait to lure them into the bait? Every time I use this trick against Xiao Ke, Xiao Ke will fall for it."

Gouzi, who was lying comfortably in Ximo's arms, instinctively stirred up. He raised his head blankly and looked around, his big black eyes showing some doubts.

"Well, 'Night Raid' shouldn't be fooled so easily, after all..." Will silently looked away from Gouzi and coughed twice.

"After all, the targets of the 'Night Raid' are very broad. If the bait is too ordinary, there is no guarantee that it will attract the opponent. If the bait is too special, the opponent will only be more alert." Lan added with a chuckle.

Everyone in the conference room nodded slightly, but did not show the slightest surprise. After all, Lan's analysis has always been a well-known difficulty in the imperial capital's response to 'night attacks'.

The difficulty of "Night Raid" is never due to its strong combat power, but its elusive whereabouts.

"Ximo, what do you think?" Esdeath directly named him.

What do you think? As long as you don't mind, I can stand and watch, sit and watch, lie down and watch... Ximo silently muttered in his heart.

He said calmly: "Personally, I think that at present we can only cope with the changes by staying the same. As long as the remaining members work in pairs, we should be able to prevent being assassinated by a 'night attack' in an instant."

"But the other party hasn't come out, so we'll just keep waiting like this?" Will couldn't help but frown. No matter what he did, he preferred to be the one who took the initiative.

"The other party will not tolerate it for long." Lan explained softly: "Since the establishment of the 'Hunter', the frequency of 'Night Raid' activities has been greatly reduced. They cannot allow this situation to continue for a long time."

"So, if they can't defeat us one by one, will they take the initiative to reveal their traces?" Esdeath nodded slightly.

She looked at everyone present and said, "So, about the grouping..."

Black Tong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised his hand and said: "Captain, I don't want to be in a group with that guy who smells like fish. It feels like my biscuits have turned into salted fish smell."

"..."

Damn it, he was rejected by a girl for such a reason... Will silently fell into autism.

Esdeath didn't care too much about such trivial matters and casually agreed to Heitong's request, "Then Heitong will be paired with Seleu, Will will be with Porus, and Ximo will be with Lan."

Naturally, Esdeath herself will not be included in the distribution plan. After all, even 'Night Raid' and 'Hunter' combined will have a hard time defeating her.

Seeing that there was no objection, Esdeath continued: "Then, the next topic is about the newly formed special department in the imperial capital, the Wild Hound."

Upon hearing this word, most of the people present showed disgust, and they didn't even bother to hide it.

While the 'Hunters' have always been committed to maintaining law and order, the 'Wild Hounds' have been bullying and do anything evil as soon as they appear. It can be said that they are a department formed by a group of scum.

The public security that had improved due to Esdeath being in the Imperial Capital had deteriorated again due to their actions.

It's just that because the leader of this organization, Sheela, is the son of a minister, even a 'hunter' can't attack them.

"Are we going to bring them to justice?" Will instantly became energetic and swept away the frustration of being rejected by Black Eyes.

"No, the minister proposes that both parties work together to solve the new dangerous species that have recently appeared near the imperial capital."

Esdeath used her usual calm tone to break Will's somewhat unrealistic fantasy.

The dangerous species near the imperial capital, isn't that what Sheela was released from Dr. Fashion's laboratory... Ximo muttered inexplicably in his heart.

Although he didn’t know what the opponent’s plan was, the Teigu [Dimensional Phalanx·Shangri-La] in Sheila’s hand was something he must take during this trip.

A Teigu that can be used for space teleportation as long as the coordinates are set can be said to be a strategic item.

However, it is not that easy to seize it directly. There are six people in the ‘Wild Hound’, and each one has considerable strength.

Moreover, the leader Sheila can transfer at any time with the [Dimensional Phalanx·Shangri-La], and any slight mistake will only make the opponent alert and escape.

Therefore, before starting the action against them, Ximo thought that he needed to find a few partners for cooperation.

He raised his head and looked around, his eyes sweeping past the indignant Will and the solemn-looking Lan.

One has a strong sense of justice and can't stand those guys doing evil, and the other seems to have a grudge against a certain member of the 'Wild Hounds'.

With their help, we might be able to try to deal with Sheela and those scum of the 'Wild Hounds'.

...

After the combat meeting ended, everyone left the conference room one after another.

Because he was assigned to be in the same group as Lan, Ximo openly invited the other party to discuss the follow-up action plan.

After getting the other party's consent, the two of them chatted and came to the forest avenue in the back garden of the General's Mansion.

There was no one on the shady forest road, except for the occasional chirping of birds. Lan asked straight to the point: "Vice Captain, do you have anything special to discuss with me?"

"We can't talk about special things, I'm just a little curious about your past." Ximo smiled softly.

"My past." Lan was stunned for a moment, then silently took half a step back, "I'm sorry, vice-captain, I have a lover."

"..." Ximo took a deep breath and explained in a deep voice: "You misunderstood, this is not what I want to talk about."

"I'm sorry, Dr. Fashion also started communicating with me in this way some time ago. It caused a big shadow on me, so I had such a reaction." Lan explained awkwardly.

Ah, this...did this happen before I didn't know about it? But in this case, I can understand it somewhat.

After all, with Dr. Fashion's special preference for the same sex, normal people will have some psychological shadows after experiencing it once.
