On the second day after the siege of General Bude, the head of General Bude was hung on the east gate of the imperial capital at some unknown time. No one knew when it was hung, but when it was discovered At that moment, the entire imperial capital was shocked.
The patron saint of the royal family died, and died silently, not even a single person was disturbed. Moreover, General Bude's head was hung on the city gate, and all the soldiers who were on duty that day were invited back to the Hunter to assist in the investigation.
And at the morning meeting on the day when General Bude's head was discovered, the face of the little emperor sitting on the throne was already full of fear. The little emperor, who had more confidence in General Bude than himself, still couldn't believe the fact that General Bude was dead until he saw his head.
"How could it be possible? How could General Bude die? He... he is the strongest in the empire!"
The little emperor's face has become distorted due to excessive fear and denial of reality. It does not look like the face of a child, but like an evil ghost who has been driven to extremes.
Minister Ernest, who had always been at odds with General Bude, also lowered his face at this time and carefully looked at the head of General Bude that was presented. After research, Minister Ernest had to admit that this was indeed the head of General Bude, his mortal enemy.
For Minister Ernest, although General Bude is a troublesome old stubborn and political enemy, he is also a good chess piece, which is very useful for him to control the royal family and deal with the rebels.
Even though he had made up his mind to find an opportunity to deal with General Bude, he never expected that he would die so early and in such a meaningless way.
Gritting his teeth, Minister Ernest was thinking about how to clean up the next mess. Le Yuan, who was standing next to Esdeath, said directly to the little emperor: "Your Majesty, after the death of General Bude, the palace lacks overwhelming power. As a defensive force, I think General Esdeath should ensure the safety of you and the palace. After all, General Bude also disappeared and died in the palace. In order to prevent the enemy from using this trick on you again, I think it is better to use General Esdeath will take over General Bude’s job.”
"Uh-this is indeed a problem."
The little emperor is innocent, but that doesn't mean he was completely fooled by Minister Ernest. At the very least, he still attaches great importance to his own life and safety. As soon as he heard Le Yuan mention the security work of the palace, he couldn't help but look at the person standing on the throne. Esdeath below.
At this moment, Esdeath also took a step forward and saluted the little emperor. Looking at the dumbfounded little emperor, Esdeath raised his head and said: "Since the imperial capital now has the wild hounds of Sheila, the son of Minister Ernest, to hunt down the rebels, then our hunter force is just the right one. I am responsible for your safety, I think with the ability of the wild hound, we don’t need the help of hunters, right?”
Being squeezed like this by Esdeath, Minister Ernest was speechless for a long time. He didn't have too deep feelings for his son, but he still valued Silla, who he had finally cultivated, especially now that he occupied such an important department. If he bowed his head and surrendered as soon as he started, he would not be himself. Is it a slap in the face to admit lack of ability
Minister Ernest turned his head and glanced at Esdeath, who seemed to want to seize power today. Then he turned his head and looked at Le Yuan. It is impossible for Esdeath's character to be attached to power. The only person who can encourage her to do this is Le Yuan, her "boyfriend".
Minister Ernest chose to accept the call calmly, with a smile still on his face. He said to the slightly nervous little emperor: "Your Majesty, General Esdeath is willing to bear the responsibility of General Bude." Responsibility is a great thing, and the empire needs pillars like General Esdeath right now to extinguish the fire of unrest in the hearts of the people!"
Le Yuan, who was opposite, couldn't help but frowned when he heard Minister Ernest's compliments. He and Esdeath suddenly launched an attack today. They originally expected to receive fierce resistance from Minister Ernest, but they didn't expect that Minister Ernest would react violently. How could he be so calm
"Really? I also think that someone is needed to take over the position of General Bude. Unfortunately, there is no descendant of General Bude who can take charge of his own affairs. So before that, General Esdeath will take over the position of General. How about guarding the palace?" The little emperor raised his scepter and announced, and then seemed to ask Minister Ernest.
Minister Ernest nodded, and then showed an exaggerated expression of distress on his face. As if he wanted to say something intimate, he said to the little emperor: "Your Majesty, it is naturally a good thing for General Esdeath to become the general of the country. However, it would not be too wasteful if the hunter troops also became the guards of the palace. ? I think it’s better to take this opportunity to join the wild hounds of the dog Sheela and become a force to suppress rebellion. Isn’t this the best use of everything?”
Minister Ernest's words made the little emperor nod his head, and he seemed to be quite moved by this figure. How could Le Yuan let the people on his side be poached by Minister Ernest? He quickly stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, have you forgotten the lessons learned from General Bude? Although Esdeath is not weak in strength, I am afraid it will be difficult for you to take care of your Majesty. The power of a hunter is necessary..."
Upon hearing Le Yuan's words, the little emperor wavered again. He seemed to think that Le Yuan's words were reasonable. He couldn't help but cast his eyes on Minister Ernest, hoping to get help from him.
And how could Le Yuan give Minister Ernest room to play freely? He quickly continued: "However, the minister's son and his wild hound are indeed a bit weak, and it is understandable that he wants to use the power of the hunter. Esdeath is not a stingy person, we will send a few people to temporarily assist the Wild Hound's operations, which we can still do."
Minister Ernest looked at Le Yuan with a rather evil look. He did not expect that Le Yuan, who he thought was just being supported by Esdeath, would have such a mind.
The two had a very heated discussion in the meeting hall, about how many hunter members to send and which hunter members to assist. With constant wrangling, the list was finally finalized.
Black Eyes controls the Teigu [Eight Rooms], Will controls the Teigu [Noble Chariot], and Ran controls the [Fallen Angel]. These three men were assigned to assist the Wild Hounds in wiping out the remnants of Night Raid and Night Scythe.
Also temporarily joining the Wild Hounds is Le Yuan, a non-staff member of the Hunter Force. As a close confidant of Esdeath, Le Yuan is considered to be half of the Hunter leader. This time he joined the Wild Hounds as the person in charge. .
On the way to the Wild Hound headquarters, Lan, who had been gloomy all the time, suddenly said to Le Yuan: "Mr. Le Yuan, please wait a moment!"
"Huh? What's the matter?"
Lan, who has always been gentle and elegant, can be said to be the lubricant of the entire Hunter. She has good relationships with everyone among the Hunters. She has never shown such a terrifying look in her eyes. This is the first time that her bloodthirsty gaze like an evil ghost has appeared. Now on his face.
"There is a clown named Shang Pu among the Wild Hounds. Can you let me deal with it?" This Shang Pu is the sinner who once tortured and killed Lan's students in Lan's hometown. Even Lan himself did not expect that he would be in this kind of situation. situation to see him again.
"No problem, but remember one thing." Le Yuan didn't ask too much and agreed immediately, and then said solemnly: "You and Heitong and Will's lives belong to the hunter, but Qian Qian Don’t throw it away casually, if the four of us go together, we will come back together, do you understand?”
"Understood!" the other three replied in unison.
The headquarters of the Wild Hounds is in an unknown courtyard in the slums, and the choice of such a place as the headquarters is not only for concealment, but also to meet the special needs of some perverts among the Wild Hounds.
There are seven wild hounds, including Shira. Others include Izo, who surpasses all others with his sword skills alone, Dotya, who possesses the whip-shaped Teigu [Wraager], and the singer with a magical voice. Cosmia, the pirate Yan Xin who is also good at swordsmanship, the serial killer clown Shang Pu, and Ling Lu, one of the four ghosts of Rakshasa who was released by Le Yuan.
In a one-on-one competition, it can be said that none of the Wild Hounds, except Sheila, are any match for the Teigu user. However, this does not mean that they do not have the means to kill the Teigu user. There is also a reason why they can be selected into the Wild Hound. of.
"Snapped-"
The door to Wild Hound's headquarters was suddenly kicked in, and the loud sound caused Wild Hound members to rush out of the house one by one and form an encirclement to surround the intruder.
I saw Le Yuan carelessly walking in with three people with black eyes. Looking at a group of men with ferocious faces, he raised his head and said, "Call Sheila out. We are hunters who are here to assist."
"Pah-pah-pah-"
With a burst of applause, Silla walked out of the room. Looking at Le Yuan who was taking the lead, Silla said with a fierce expression on her face: "You are so courageous. You dare to lead people straight into the headquarters of Wild Hound like this. You are really very courageous, Mr. Le Yuan! "
When she said Le Yuan's name, Silla was already gritting her teeth. Then his eyes lit up and he stared closely at Heitong who was eating biscuits in small bites. Suddenly a malicious smile appeared on his face, and he said lewdly: "I don't know that you hunters still have such high-quality goods. As long as you call that girl to accompany me, I will mercifully forgive you today." No disrespect, this deal is a good deal!"
"Accompany you? Accompany your sister! Cut him off for me!" Le Yuan waved his hand, and the next second the Heitong trio behind him moved.
