Chapter 210 [Death in the Mist] Encirclement and Suppression Campaign (I)

Imperial capital, 'inside the prison'.

After Gozizi witnessed and confirmed that Fang Yi had swallowed the poison, it seemed that his trust in Fang Yi had increased a lot.

His whole attitude changed from the previous murderous intent to a kind state, at least on the surface.

After promising that 'the [Minister] will definitely meet with you within three days', the [Minister's] right-hand man had a brief exchange with Zhu Tian.

Fang Yi only looked at these two Rakshasa Four Ghost-level figures. Using a simple question-and-answer method, they completed the exchange of Fang Yi's information in less than thirty seconds.

Realizing Fang Yi's value and learning about Fang Yi's "background setting", Goziqi began to "whitewash" Fang Yi.

'Hyena' was marked as a member of the [Minister's Camp]. The identity that this ace spy had previously prepared for Fang Yi was obviously no longer suitable for Fang Yi, who might now shoulder a heavier mission.

Therefore, Goziqi told Fang Yi that it would take some time to prepare a seamless, legal identity for Fang Yi that seemed to have nothing to do with the "Minister".

After consulting Fang Yi's opinion and knowing that Fang Yi had not yet contacted the spy agency.

The two finally determined Fang Yi's identity in the empire - a local army soldier who had served for several years but was frustrated.

For this reason, Fang Yi needs to stay in this "cell" for a while, waiting for the identity information to be completed and starting to familiarize himself with his identity settings before leaving.

Fang Yi also revealed more of his "role settings" at the right time.

He said that he had a friend named Disma who was separated from him due to a bandit attack on their way to the imperial capital, and he hoped that Gozizi could help find him.

After getting Gozizi's promise to help "find" Disma, Fang Yi showed "reassurance" in his body language and acted as if he was enjoying the comfortable "cell".

It was not until Zhu Tian and Goziqi left that Fang Yi, who had confirmed that he was not being monitored, finally relaxed and began to think about his next plan.

He planned to gain some reputation through some events before meeting the [Minister].
-
Shortly after Goziqi left, there were several rhythmic knocks outside the iron gate where Fang Yi, who was still outlining a plan in his mind, was. The knocks were clear but not urgent, as if they were some kind of signal.

Fang Yi frowned slightly, turned his head and looked at the door vigilantly.

After a moment, the knocking stopped, followed by the sound of light footsteps.

A waiter appeared silently, lowered his head and pushed a food cart out of the iron gate. After saying "please enjoy", he turned around and left silently, as if he had never existed.

There were several exquisite meals on the dining cart. Judging from the [Cooking lv7] skill, which was classified as a non-combat skill on Fang Yi's system panel, each meal had been carefully prepared, revealing refinement and luxury.

The style of the dishes was based on the private dishes and even French cuisine that Fang Yi had eaten. Of course, the portions were much larger than the small portions given by the Michelin tire shop that Fang Yi had eaten in his previous life.

In short, even people who don’t know the ingredients can see that these dishes are definitely not cheap.

At the same time, the certification of the space also told Fang Yi that the value of these things to the reincarnationists, especially himself, was not low.

The steak on the top of the dining car was grilled to perfection, with slightly browned edges and exuding an enticing meaty aroma. It was certified by the space as a consumable item with the effect of [accelerated mental power recovery speed].

The bowl of broth next to the steak has a golden luster and a warm aroma, and has the effect of [slightly increasing the body's recovery speed].

This is only the first floor of the dining car. Fang Yi took a look and found that each floor of the dining car had several kinds of food with different flavors, most of which were consumables with space authentication effects.

Even the accompanying cup of hot drink, which seemed to have taken Fang Yi's needs into consideration and emitted a light smoke, had the effect of [slightly increasing energy].

*
Fang Yi looked at the dining car and gained a new understanding of the [Minister Camp].

"The wealth of this [Ministerial Camp] and the benefits it can obtain are probably beyond my original expectations.

“I haven’t even officially joined yet, but I can enjoy this kind of benefits. Those who have made contributions will probably get even more benefits.

"No wonder the empire is full of the [Minister's] cronies and lackeys. This [Minister] really spends a lot of money to buy people off.

"Unfortunately, the [Minister's Camp] is in conflict with the two top fighters, [Esdeath] and [Bud], and also has irreconcilable conflicts with people like Disma and Akame. Regretfully, I can only ask him to die."

Fang Yi withdrew his thoughts and, while clearing out all the food on the dining car, he was thinking about how to use these consumables to quickly improve his strength.

"It seems that cooking with dangerous ingredients can produce consumables with good effects.

"The [Dangerous Species] keyword in the mission is also a way to discover good benefits and improve the strength of the reincarnation.

“After joining the [Minister’s Camp] or entering the [Fighter King Temple], I might be able to learn some techniques for cooking and processing the flesh and blood of dangerous species, and use them more efficiently.

"Combining my [Cooking Level 7] and [Dissection Level 4] skills should also allow me to gain more benefits from dangerous creatures."

Fang Yi thought for a few minutes and then collected his thoughts.

For the [Dangerous Species] reward line, I have already mastered the food processing rights for [Night Raid] and developed some rewards.

The rest will be gradually unlocked as your status improves, so there is no point in being anxious.

But there are several things that are more important right now.

For example, killing Gozizi.

Fang Yi had learned something about this elusive figure from the [Minister Camp] during his conversation with Zhu Tian.

The other side is preparing for a roundup of the [Death God in the Mist]. In addition to Zhu Tian's assistance, several [Imperial Equipment Users] from the [Minister Camp] will also participate.

Fang Yi, who had already experienced the benefits of gaining extra attribute points from [Imperial Weapon Battle], naturally did not intend to miss this wonderful opportunity to kill the enemy and improve his own strength.

After all, Fang Yi has always been very reasonable.

Since the other party has already set up the stage and is waiting for the appearance of [Death in the Mist], he will naturally not break his promise.

Fang Yi began to construct the strength of Goziqi and Zhu Tian in his mind and think about the solution.
-
First up is Gozizi.

According to Akame, there were several wounds on Gozizi's body that were inflicted by her using the [Ministerial Tool] [Kiri Ichimonji].

This [Servant's Tool] has the effect of causing wounds that won't heal, thus making the opponent's [Flesh Control] skill much less effective.

After losing [Murasame], the opponent's combat power is lower than that of the Four Rakshasa Demons and Horse Head that Fang Yi killed before, but the opponent has the resources of the [Minister Camp] and it is possible for him to obtain a new [Imperial Weapon].

It is a bit difficult, but Fang Yi feels that it can be solved after he improves his strength to a certain extent.

As for Zhu Tian, ​​after knowing the opponent's fighting style and "momentum" of this Rakshasa Four Ghosts, Fang Yi has already thought of many plans to kill him.

Now with Natasha's full support, Fang Yi will also include some members of [Night Raid] in his plan.

For example, [Lubbock] and [Maine] are good candidates for supporting roles. The former admires Nahette, and Fang Yi can easily command the opponent in the name of Nahette.

The latter had been cured by Fang Yi, and he believed that as long as Fang Yi made a request, the other party would definitely not refuse.

A control-type [Imperial Tool User] and a long-range fire support [Imperial Tool User] will greatly increase Fang Yi's combat power. Disma and Akame are also like this. After completing the murder commissions for two copper coins, these two people almost blindly follow Fang Yi's orders.

The three [Imperial Tool Users] of the [Night Raid], the new [Imperial Tool User] Disma, and myself as the "traitor" should be enough to deal with the combination of Gozchi, Zhu Tian and several [Imperial Tool Users].

After finalizing the candidates for the battle, Fang Yi crossed his legs, sat on the chair, picked up the new newspaper, and read his report on "Death in the Fog".

The [Oberg Assassination Society] controlled a printing factory, and the [Revolutionary Army] had a large number of manpower. With the combination of the two, the execution of the nobles by the [Death God in the Mist] had become the headline of the imperial newspapers and was spreading among the people at an exponential rate.

In other words, his own [Death in the Mist] 'suit' has become famous.

Fang Yi never fights an unprepared battle. Long before killing those nobles, he had already made preparations for fame and publicity.

He even wrote some shocking headlines for his deeds in advance.
-
The imperial capital, a place that appears to be a residence but is actually a prison.

Yuan Qi stood in the courtyard, scanning the simple meals brought by the servants, his brows slightly furrowed, unable to hide the disappointment in his heart.

[Minister's Camp] The man who called himself Gozizi seemed to have something urgent to deal with. After bringing me to this residence and telling me to wait patiently, he left in a hurry.

The food on the table in front of him was not bad. It was quite rich compared to ordinary people or even most people, but it was a little different from what Yuan Qi had expected.

When Gozizi was communicating with me, he had painted a rosy picture for me, telling me that the dangerous species in the [Minister's Camp] were very rich in flesh and blood.

In order to cultivate strong people and satisfy the appetites of the [Ministers], a number of dishes with good amplification effects on cultivation have been developed around the flesh and blood of dangerous species. As long as you join the [Minister Camp], you will have the opportunity to enjoy them.

Yuan Qi, who is currently practicing the [Dragon Elephant Prison-Suppressing Technique] and is absolutely confident in his own strength, is naturally looking forward to this.

He hopes that through these dishes, he can speed up his practice of martial arts and further improve his strength.

Therefore, the ordinary dishes that appeared in front of him made him a little annoyed.

He was clearly in the imperial capital, a "distinguished guest" of the [Ministers' Camp], but he was treated to such a simple meal, which made him feel a little suspicious.

He suppressed his anger and began to speculate in his heart.

Is this truly the way the ministers treat guests? Or is it that someone is pocketing the expenses for entertainment?

[Or, how much skill do I need to show to get these rewards?]

While his thoughts were wandering, Yuan Qi unconsciously picked up a newspaper on the table, wanting to use it to take a look at the outside world and recent developments.

The scent of ink still lingered on the paper, suggesting it was today's new newspaper. He scanned it quickly, searching for any useful information.

Then he saw a title that piqued his interest.

"Shocking the Empire! The Four Corpses of the [Minister] Shocked Everyone!"

Yuan Qi was shocked and thought to himself.

[Is this [Minister] also a necromancer? Then his strength needs to be reconsidered.]

Yuan Qi immediately unfolded the newspaper and began to read the article carefully.

Then, like other imperial people who unfolded the newspaper, he suffered a shocking "scam".

After reading the newspaper, Yuan Qi threw it away and became even more angry.

"Stupid, whoever came up with this title, this has absolutely nothing to do with [Minister]."

"Isn't it just a few useless nobles who died? And they created a 'Death in the Mist' who's holding a list and demanding his life.

"It's obvious that this person is a reincarnator from the reincarnation space, just carrying out a mission.

"They even reported on the [Minister]. Who wrote such a wicked article? It's a waste of my time."

Of course, the words "two [Imperial Equipment Users] and one Rakshasa Four Ghosts were killed" would not appear in the newspaper, so this information was quickly ignored by Yuan Qi.

He began to think about how to find an opportunity to show off his record of crushing Brand with one punch, so as to gain support from the [Minister Camp] more quickly.

[This [Minister Camp] hasn't been unlocked either. Could it be that the man named Goziqi is lying to me?]

While he was thinking, Yuan Qi heard a gust of wind in his ears and he subconsciously dodged.

However, after seeing that it was a feather with a paper tube, and realizing that the intention of this attack was only to convey a message, Yuan Qi put away his murderous intent towards the blond man wearing the feather-like [Imperial Gear] not far away, and instead began to unfold the paper tube and check the contents written on it.

"Hello, I am a [Teigu User], my name is Lan, and I possess a [Teigu] that can fly."

"I was invited by the [Minister's Camp] to encircle and suppress the [Death God in the Mist]. I want to tell you something."

"We here are all under suspicion by Gozizi of the [Minister's Camp]."

After reading the content, Yuan Qi nodded at Lan next to him.

He wrote a message on the margin of the paper and rolled it up tightly, but did not feather it and throw it back.

Instead, under the other party's surprised gaze, Yuan Qi simply exerted a little force with his wrist and nailed the paper tube into Lan's side like a nail.

After showing off a little skill and shocking the [Imperial Tool User] named Lan, the two began to exchange information.
-
A mansion not far from Yuan Qi.

Goziqi was checking his saber.

Zhu Tian looked at the unmoved Goziqi and became a little anxious, and spoke in a somewhat anxious tone.

"You've been watching people on the city wall for a long time today, and now you're looking at swords here.

"The mission to encircle and suppress the [Death God in the Mist] has not made any progress at all!

"Now we have no idea how to find and kill him!

"If this continues, how are we going to report to the [Minister]?"

Goziqi listened to his friend Zhu Tian's complaints, but did not refute immediately. Instead, he waited until Zhu Tian finished speaking before throwing out the "king bomb" in his hand.

"Don't worry, I already know how to find him.

“You know nothing about the [Minister’s] intelligence network, so naturally you don’t know that the enemy’s intelligence is already in my hands.

"And the man who calls himself the 'Death in the Mist' will die at our hands in a few days."

Looking at the intelligence in his hand, Gozizi felt that this mission of encircling and suppressing the "Death God in the Mist" was a sure thing.
