"Now you don't have to worry... Find a way to take Little Red Riding Hood Mercenary for a longer walk, about half an hour to an hour. Soon, you will see the wolf..."
"you sure?"
At this critical moment, Texas couldn't help but ask this question.
"I'm sure. And, in a little while, this drama in Syracuse will also be coming to an end."
Xio spoke in a calm and reassuring tone, then hung up the phone. Texas remained silent, put the phone away, let out a long breath, and continued walking forward, quietly slowing his pace.
There's nothing I can do... From now on, I can only believe what Xio says.
........................
At the same time, during the time when Little Red Riding Hood visited Texas, the war between Thumb and the Bellone family was in full swing.
However, in fact, both sides seem to be acting.
After all, the ultimate goal wasn't a real fight... but to lure out Zaro, the Wolf Lord of the Bellone family.
About twenty minutes into the battle, Bernardo called for help from Zaro - he deliberately made the Bellone family appear to be in a state of retreat, in order to tell Zaro that your fangs are no longer effective, and if you don't make any more moves, something bad might happen.
So, after much persuasion from Bernardo, Zaro was finally persuaded. After all, this wasn't a game between Wolf Lords. Furthermore, after learning who the Thumb's leader was, Zaro felt that resolving this issue would be a simple matter of words.
Then, Zaro transformed into a mist-like shape and rushed towards the battlefield between Thumb and the Bellone family... It was during this rush that the situation on the battlefield changed.
It wasn't Zaro's charge that directly caused the drastic changes on the battlefield—it wasn't that.
Instead, a new force joined the battle at that moment.
Saluzzo family.
From the moment Zaro revealed his presence, only about twenty minutes had passed. Within those twenty minutes, the Saluzzo family quickly dispatched a large number of personnel to the battlefield where the Thumb and Bellone families were clashing, joining the battle...
The guy who was leading the charge and was there to counter Zaro was a wolf, a wolf with deep blue scars on its body.
A large, potentially bad wolf. Abnormality, WAW-level, uninhibited.
So, on the battlefield, Zarrow was targeted by a large and potentially bad wolf and was instantly entangled. In the distance, Xio smiled at this.
"Go on...come on harder."
Inside T Company's headquarters, Xio watched the scenes unfold through the screen, a smile on his face. Meanwhile, when he saw the scene in the corner of the screen, his smile deepened.
On that screen, there was an image of a crimson mist rushing towards the battlefield.
Chapter 165:161 The Crimson Mist Enters, Da'at is 'Captured' by Saluzzo
Of course, Hugh knew what was going on.
In fact, it's clear that the big, potentially bad wolf has been in the Saluzzo family from the beginning.
Hugh's guess is that the big and possibly bad wolf may have triggered some kind of "territorial" mechanism... From the moment it arrived in Syracuse, the big and possibly bad wolf chose a family, regarded it as its territory, and most likely a very brutal struggle took place.
The exact course of the struggle is unknown. However, judging by the outcome, the large and potentially bad wolf emerged victorious. Meanwhile, it harbored a greed for more territory.
As a result, the Saluzzo family began to show abnormal hostility. According to Xio's guess, it was most likely a large and possibly bad wolf, who was driving the Saluzzo family's behavior in pursuit of more territory.
The moment Zaro appeared, the big and possibly bad wolf smelled the scent of its own kind, and at the same time, the desire to fight was triggered. For it, the existence of two "wolves" in such a narrow range was almost impossible.
So, it set out, bringing the entire Saluzzo family with it to join the battlefield. It was as simple as that.
And what happens next... also makes Xio look forward to it.
He knew where Da'at had gone... He knew it well. After all, they were both fundamentally "urbanites." That night, Da'at had quietly left the house, actually heading to the Saluzzo family. Through some time manipulation within T Company, Da'at had infiltrated the Saluzzo family. Currently, he was leaving the Saluzzo family and heading for the battlefield, acting as a distraction for Carly.
From the very beginning, the targeting of this action was quite obvious——
——Xiu doesn’t believe that the Little Red Riding Hood mercenary can handle the violent wolf alone, plus a Zaro, and may even have to face the entire Saluzzo family... But, what if, say, there is a Crimson Mist?
That is the purpose of Hugh, the purpose of Da'at.
"Alright, next, let's watch the Crimson Mist perform... Oh, by the way, don't forget Little Red Riding Hood... She's completed her mission, and now it's time to reclaim her."
With a slight smile on his lips, Xio murmured to himself and turned on the communicator.
........................
On the other side, at this moment, Texas received a call from Hugh.
"Now, head towards the battlefield. The wolves have appeared."
Xio spoke decisively at the beginning of the call. Before Texas could ask anything, the Little Red Riding Hood mercenary beside him turned his head, a glint in his eyes.
"I smell... I smell a wolf."
"so far?"
Texas turned around in surprise and looked at the Little Red Riding Hood mercenary next to her, but she had already swung her legs and ran out at full speed. Texas was stunned for a moment, and then she heard the voice on the phone that seemed to have a cruel smile on it:
"If... you still want to witness a good show, I advise you to go over now."
Texas was silent for a moment, then sighed and hung up the phone. She put away the communicator, slung her gun behind her back, and began running forward.
Then... let her also take a good look at what kind of grand performance that Xio was talking about.
........................
At the same time, on the battlefield.
The two clouds of smoke collided, and then, at the same time, they took shape. The large, potentially vicious wolf bit into Zaro's body. Immediately, Zaro let out a howl, a fierce look on his face...
Bernardo, who was standing at a considerable distance, watched the scene through a telescope, let out a long sigh, and a look of worry appeared in his eyes.
Can you kill it?
And the next moment, just as Zha Luo broke free, landed on the ground and prepared to fight back, everything around him seemed to slow down a lot... A drone flew through the sky, and at the moment it flew past, a time delay device landed accurately on Zha Luo's body.
So, taking advantage of the moment when Zaro threw away the time delay device, the wolf opened its huge mouth again and bit Zaro. But at this moment, a gunshot rang out of nowhere, and the Little Red Riding Hood mercenary arrived as expected, with scarlet flames rising from her feet.
"...All Thumbs, retreat. Your mission is over... Now, let the rest of you take over the battlefield."
At this moment, these words rang out from the communicators of all the Thumb soldiers. It was Texas' voice.
The boss's orders cannot be questioned.
Then, the thumbs on the field receded like the tide... The people of the Bellone family were a little confused for a moment, and didn't understand why the show suddenly stopped... But soon, people from the Saluzzo family emerged and began to raid the members of the Bellone family.
A little further away, Alberto Saluzzo was walking behind the team, frowning as he looked at the battlefield in the distance which had suddenly become chaotic.
Then he glanced at Da'at standing next to him and fell silent.
She is clearly a captive...but why is she smiling so happily?
Looking at Da'at, who was smiling like a flower beside him, Alberto couldn't help but think so in his heart.
Da'at was captured by the Saluzzo family mid-march. During the Saluzzo's march, she suddenly appeared among the rebels, wearing the insignia of the Bellone family, and surrendered, becoming their captive. The subsequent events were unclear, but in short, the captive was ultimately placed under Alberto's personal care.
Alberto thought this guy was quite suspicious... Therefore, he personally questioned Da'at along the way. But no matter what he asked, Da'at changed the subject and just kept smiling.
And now, when Da'at still smiled...for some reason, Alberto felt a bad premonition in his heart.
At that moment, the situation on the battlefield shifted. Amidst the chaotic battle between Zaro, the Little Red Riding Hood mercenaries, the big, potentially bad wolf, the Saluzzo family, and the Bellone family, a red figure, braving the drizzling rain, slowly stepped onto the battlefield. She tossed the Mimic EGO from her shoulder and calmly gazed at the three monsters before her.
Carly, entered the battlefield.
"...What the hell are you doing here again?"
Then, Carly let out a long breath, a look of annoyance in the corner of her eyes. At this moment, Alberto noticed that Da'at's smile beside him became brighter than ever before. Then, she suddenly put away her smile.
"Hey!—This way!—"
Suddenly, Alberto heard Da'at shouting.
Then, Abelto saw that the woman who had just stepped onto the battlefield almost suddenly turned around and looked in his direction.
A feeling of being hunted... no, being targeted by the god of death, arose in Rupert's heart.
Chapter 166:162 Carly: Five minutes to kill you all
"Hey……"
So, Carly carried the Mimic EGO on her shoulders, just like the silence before the storm, the explosion seemed to last only for a moment... Alberto quickly looked at Da'at beside him, then turned around and looked at Carly in front of him.
"Wait a minute, I think..."
"No, you don't want anything."
However, Alberto was greeted by a single word from Carly, instantly cutting off his words. The Mimic EGO flew out of his hand, and in a flash, it was already in front of Alberto.
At that moment, Alberto's pupils suddenly contracted.
He seemed to see death.
Will Carly, who is furious, listen carefully to what Alberto has to say?
In anger, urgency, and anxiety, Carly...
Is it possible that he would listen carefully to what Alberto said?
The answer seems obvious – Carly, no.
For Carly, there is only one thing she needs to do right now:
"Give Da'at back to me!"
He lowered his body and suddenly jumped up. In an instant, he crossed most of the battlefield and came straight to Alberto. Then, he grabbed the mimic that was nailed to the ground. In just a moment, he raised his hand and roared.
Then, the mimicry was pulled up from the ground, exploding with chunks of earth and rocks. Then, the mimicry's blood-red light flashed by, ending everything here.
After one cut, Alberto's head fell from the air, and blood gushed out from the clean cut.
When Carly raised her mimicry again, she looked around and found that Da'at, who had been with Alberto earlier, had disappeared and it was unclear where he had gone... She looked around and found that Da'at had been among the Saluzzo family without her knowing when.
Damn, when exactly...
Carly gritted her teeth, and at that moment, without hesitation, she raised her mimicry again...
...Then kill him.
Until Da'at is brought out.
Then, EGO appeared. A blood-red coat was draped over Carly, and at the same time, a one-eyed helmet was put on her head, emitting a creepy red light.
Then, Carly slipped and dodged into the crowd of Saluzzo. Suddenly, corpses were everywhere, and the crowd was being harvested at an extremely fast speed...
It was at this time that Company T quickly joined the battlefield from outside the field, becoming the last force to join the battlefield in this sudden conflict.
Likewise, it may also be the force that benefits the most.
T Company quickly took away those who were still barely breathing. As the blood rained down, T Company rescued many people from the field. At the same time, Carly finally broke into Da'at's side, and the surrounding area was now empty.
The EGO display was partially lifted, and Carly's face reappeared from under the helmet. She inserted the mimic into the ground, looked at Da'at, her lips seemed to tremble, and then she slowly stretched out her hand.
"...Da'at?"
"Well, I'm here."
Then, Da'at spoke softly and responded.
After Da'at responded to her words, Carly began to breathe heavily. A rare smile appeared on her face. Da'at slowly walked towards her and gently grasped Carly's hand.
For a moment, Carly's hands froze, and then she obediently let Da'at hold her hands.
Similarly, this action blocked the question that Carly was about to ask.
Those unimportant issues...let's ignore them for now.
Carly thought secretly in her heart.
Anyway, judging by the outcome, Da'at has returned. Those things can be understood later... Right now, the important thing is to get Da'at out of here quickly...
"let's go."
Thinking of this, Carly immediately grabbed Da'at's hand and, while speaking, raised her legs and prepared to walk out. But Da'at paused, raised his head, and shook his head slightly at Carly.
"...Our mission in Syracuse isn't completely over yet."
Then, Da'at spoke softly, looking in one direction. Carly followed Da'at's gaze and saw three guys still fighting over there.
Zarrow, the Little Red Riding Hood mercenary, the big and potentially bad wolf.
"...I'm not quite sure what happened, but if we just beat all three of them, everything will be over, right?"
Then, Kali let out a breath, the previous hue returning to her eyes. She cracked her fingers together, picking up the Mimic from the ground. Then, she looked at Da'at beside her and paused for a moment.
"Wait for me here... Three minutes. I won't make you wait longer than that."
Afterwards, after leaving these words, Crimson Mist glared at the members of the Saluzzo family who had not yet escaped, and scolded:
