He has a calm personality and can clearly analyze the situation and clearly identify the pros and cons of something. However, knowing the pros and cons does not mean that he will definitely pursue the direction of 'profit'.

Lan smiled bitterly.

Hell is empty and the devil is in the world. Even if the other party really has ulterior motives, he can only eradicate the evil spirits wreaking havoc in the world first.

...

General's Mansion Garden.

Hearing the familiar footsteps, Ximo, who was lying on the lawn thinking about life, opened his eyes and looked at Lan, who had a complicated expression in front of him, with a faint smile on his face.

"As expected, you came back to me."

Lan Wenyan smiled bitterly, "Everything was planned by Your Excellency, wasn't it? I seem to have no choice."

"You have fulfilled your long-cherished wish for revenge, and I just wanted to get some Teigu." Ximo sat up and said easily, "So please rest assured, this is just a mutually beneficial transaction."

orchid:"......"

Just? That’s all?

At the beginning of the establishment of the empire, it took the whole country to produce 48 pieces of Teigu. Why do you think they are just like ordinary commodities?

He frowned and asked: "Not to mention the problem of wavelength matching, with our physical quality, it is impossible to use two Teijin at the same time. Even if you get it..."

"I can collect it myself or give it to others. This doesn't seem to be an issue that you should be concerned about?" Ximo said with an unchanging smile.

"Indeed." Lan was silent for a moment, "Then what are you going to do? The 'Wild Hound' is not an easy target to solve."

"Of course, so we need more companions." Ximo looked towards the direction of the martial arts field in the general's mansion.

Although there was a long distance between them, the two of them could still hear Will's exaggerated roar during training.

Well, it seems to be particularly loud today, probably stimulated by the news that the 'Hunter' is going to cooperate with the 'Wild Hound'.

"Do we have to involve them?" Lan was a little reluctant.

Hearing his words, Ximo rubbed his forehead helplessly and said, "How do you know their attitude if you don't ask them? And with Will's character, maybe he can't help but do it himself."

Lan hesitated for a moment and had to admit that this was indeed a possibility.

Perhaps as a man who grew up in the sea, Will's sense of justice is stronger than that of other Hunters. If he directly witnessed what the Wild Hound did, he might really be unable to control his emotions and take action.

but......

He glanced at Ximo sitting on the ground and asked, "Can I negotiate with Will and the others?"

Are you worried that I will use words to induce Will and the others to join... Ximo smiled softly in his heart, then nodded and agreed to Lan's request.

He had never planned to deal with such a troublesome matter personally, so it would be great if someone could do it for him.

"The 'Night Raid' has been silent for so long. It is very likely that there is a new assassination plan. Remember to pay attention to safety when cooperating with the 'Wild Hound' the day after tomorrow." Ximo reminded.

The action will be taken the day after tomorrow, will the blame be thrown on the 'Night Raid'... Lan nodded silently, and then walked towards the martial arts field.

...

Ximo was not interested in Lan's entire negotiation process, but the final result undoubtedly satisfied him.

Except for Black Eyes, who remained neutral, even Porus, who had always been kind to others, chose to participate in the action because he did not want his wife and daughter to live in unstable danger.

Time flies by.

In a blink of an eye, the day came for the action to begin.

It seems that because they are not good at hiding their worries, most people have a look of anxiety on their faces, so the atmosphere in the team setting off on war horses became a little solid for a while.

Ximo glanced at everyone speechlessly, his expression almost like having the words "I have something to hide" plastered on his face.

But luckily, Esdeath didn't seem to notice, or in other words, she noticed, but didn't really care.

As long as no one blatantly disobeys her will, some minor problems are not important.

Soon, six strange figures appeared in everyone's field of vision.

The leader was a tall man with a strong physique and deep cross scars on his face. He was wearing a super short tight white top and slightly long leggings.

He is the leader of the ‘Wild Hounds’, Sheila.

Beside him were the Japanese samurai Izo, the blond lolita Dotya, the purple-haired bunny girl Kosmia, the pirate Yanxin, and the very fat clown Shangpu.

Ximo glanced at Lan beside him.

Although he still looks gentle and gentle on the surface, it can be seen from the hands holding the reins tightly that his mood is not as calm as imagined.

"General Esdeath, we meet again."

Silla's eyes swept across the black-eyed body, and finally looked at Esdeath with a slight smile.

If he could conquer this iceberg-like woman, it might be a good challenge. Unfortunately, he didn't want to die so quickly.

But you can try something else...

"Obviously we can easily solve the problem, but we must work out a cooperation. I hope your subordinates will not disappoint me."

Esdeath glanced around at the 'Wild Hound' and said coldly.

She was dissatisfied with the frivolous attitude of the other party. If it weren't for the minister's face, this guy would have no right to stand here and talk to her.

"Of course, they are experts I have recruited from all over the world. They should be no less than the general's adjutants from foreign countries."

As Silla spoke, she looked at Ximo on the horse, with no concealment of the arrogance in her eyes.

At the same time, several people around him also showed signs of being ready to make a move.

Ximo: "..."

Although I know these guys are mentally ill, do they dare to be so arrogant in front of Esdeath?

No, maybe the other party’s original purpose was to test the skills of the ‘Hunter’ members, so they created a so-called ‘cooperation’ situation.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Really? Maybe we can learn from each other if we have the opportunity. I'm also curious about what's so special about the 'Wild Hound' who is so famous in the Imperial Capital."

"Handsome little brother, if you don't mind, I can chat with you alone and get to know each other better."

The blonde loli stroked her short blond hair tied with a blue bow with a hint of shyness, and her seemingly cute tiger teeth were exposed at the corners of her mouth.

Get to know me more deeply? Are you afraid that you just want to suck me dry... The corners of Ximo's mouth twitched slightly.

As an alchemist who has undergone numerous physical transformations, although the other party looks like a young girl, she is actually quite old.

However, with the tooth-type Teigu installed in the mouth [Blood Collection·Extremely Rapid Absorption], Dotya can suck people into mummies by sucking blood, and use it for self-healing and improving their own strength, while maintaining their appearance.

Stay young in order to live forever.
