Chapter 232: Seven Hundred
The search in the capital ended after three days, and although it was turned upside down, nothing worthwhile was found.
The night wind blew, and the capital was particularly quiet today.
Su Xiao took out a tarot card and turned it over in his hands.
— Contractor? He was able to kill them so quickly and escape, I wonder, " Su Xiao came to a suburb of the capital where no one was around.
After that, he summoned Bubtni.
As soon as it appeared, it began to swirl around Su Xiao, but Su Xiao leaned the tarot card against Bubtney's nose.
— Track down the smell.
Bubtney sniffed the map for a while, then raised his head to the sky.
A moment later, Bubtni began to run, and run to the capital.
Su Xiao was stunned. This person dared to stay in the capital after killing two people from the Jaeger group?
Half an hour later, he was speechless as Bubtni brought him to Kurome's house.
Su Xiao frowned. - Look for another source of smell.
Bubtney's ears drooped. He saw that Su Xiao wasn't very happy.
This time, Bubutni searched for more than two hours near the capital. Just as Su Xiao was about to go to rest, Bubtney suddenly barked.
— Did you find it? Su Xiao was surprised. After such an amount of time, Bubtney was able to find a person with such a smell.
Bubtny nodded and lowered his body, as if telling Su Xiao to sit on his back.
Bubtney immediately ran forward and sometimes stopped.
After stopping seven or eight times, Bubtni arrived at a forest that was a bit far away from the capital.
— Woof-woof~, " Bubtny barked a few times and stopped in his tracks.
— What happened?
Bubtney began to shuffle around uneasily, but he clearly wasn't going to move forward.
Su Xiao started checking the surroundings, and after a couple of seconds, he found an anomaly.
Faint cold reflections were reflected in the forest.
They were metal threads.
— A simple warning trap? So that's it... Su Xiao thought about something and a smile appeared on his face.
— Bubtney, let's go back.
Su Xiao didn't make his way forward and went back to Babble.
After returning to the capital, Su Xiao put away the Bubtni in his inventory and entered the house.
----
At noon the next day, the four members of the Jaegers and Esdes gathered in the assembly hall.
— Byakuya, tell me what you found, " Esdes said.
— Last night, I found the Night Raid headquarters in the suburbs of the capital. To be precise, I found a simple trap for alerting strangers that could only be created by one member of a Night Raid. I didn't go any further. If I'm right, then more than 90% of the Night Raid participants are there.
The room fell silent.
— We must restore justice and honor the memory of our fallen comrades, " Wave slammed the table with bloodshot eyes.
— If my information is correct, there are a total of seven people in the Night Raid right now. Even if there are only five of us, we will win. All members of the Jaegers should be ready to fight, " Esdes said, not even mentioning revenge.
In Esdes ' opinion, death represented only weakness, and the weak were not worth taking revenge on.
The night Raid was just enemies that needed to be killed.
— General, are we going to go with the army? Wave asked.
— No, we will strike today. It doesn't make sense to lead less than a thousand soldiers there, and gathering more than a thousand soldiers will be too easy to detect. We will attack them and drag the Night Raid into a long battle, and at that time the army will begin to converge on their headquarters and surround the Night Raid.
Esdes ' plan was a good one.
With Su Xiao as their guide, they quickly arrived at the right place.
A total of five people arrived at the entrance of the forest: Esdes, Su Xiao, Kurome, Wave, Balls.
— Is that where the Night Raid headquarters are located? They are located in such a place... no wonder they weren't discovered earlier, " Esdes held a map in her hand, and this map showed the area of the forest.
The terrain of this place was very suitable for setting up a secret headquarters — difficult terrain, valleys and rivers everywhere...
— Kurome, you're in charge of the rear.
Given Kurome's ability, it was a logical choice.
— Balls, Wave, you two move together.
Since Bols wasn't strong in close combat, Esdeath decided to send Bols and Wave together.
— Byakuya, you will have to stop Murasame's owner, Akame, after the operation begins.
— Forward!
The huntsmen began to move, and several people rushed in different directions. Tens of thousands of soldiers at this time had already started to slowly converge on the forest and they would completely surround it after the battle started.
At the Night Raid headquarters.
Lubbock suddenly felt several of his threads twitch.
— Someone has broken into our territory! Lubbock shouted, and the other members of the Night Raid quickly gathered around Lubbock.
— How many are there?
Since Najenda died, Akame became their leader.
— In total... five people, they have entered our forest from four different directions and are moving directly towards us, what should we do?
Leone and the others looked worried.
Their headquarters were discovered.
— We follow our strategy. If the situation becomes unfavorable, we will retreat.
There were six participants in the Night raid, not seven as Esdeath had thought.
Akame, Tatsumi, Mine, Leone, Lubbock and Shelly.
There was actually another person, but this person wasn't part of the Night Raid.
Su Xiao stood still and didn't move.
— It looks like we were destined to meet again so soon — " the man in front of him was playing with a tarot card with one hand.
It was Karl, a member of the Ghost Brigade troupe and the eleventh contractor in the group.
— Who knows? a dragon flash appeared in his hands. Contractors who were in different factions could only kill each other in a world like this, for the competition in this world was merciless.
— Since we're not friends, let's see if you're lucky today — " a tarot card appeared in Karl's other hand. "Water, wind, fire... three elements? Looks like you've had some bad luck today.".
As a member of the Ghost Brigade, Carl certainly wasn't weak. He was a mage who had mastered more than 700 spells.
That's right, he knew more than 700 magic spells.
