Chapter 207
【You have killed (Elite Creature) Fenrir.】
【Fenrir is an elite creature, obtained 2.6% of World Source, currently obtained a total of 2.6% of World Source.】
【Your talent 'Soul Eater' has taken effect, permanently increasing mana by 15 points, current mana is 488 points.】
Fenrir died while struggling, a blue treasure chest fell to the ground, Su Xiao walked up quickly to pick up the treasure chest and pulled out Checking Zhan Long Shan.
The ice layer on Esdeath's body gradually dissipated, and blood dripped down Esdeath's arms.
"A beautiful slash."
Esdeath's chest heaved violently; the battle with Fenrir lasted less than five minutes, but it was exceptionally dangerous.
Esdeath's silver-gray dress-style military uniform was torn with large holes; her attire was already very sexy, and after such a tragic slaughter, she was seriously exposed.
Esdeath pulled her clothes up with trembling arms, blocking the exposed part that was already two-thirds visible.
"What did you see just now?"
"General, you are exposed."
Su Xiao's straightforwardness made the veins on Esdeath's forehead bulge, but after thinking about the training Su Xiao received in the dark department, Esdeath sighed helplessly. She was now the superior, and Su Xiao, as a member of the dark department, of course had to answer the facts of what he witnessed, no matter what he saw.
"If you dare to say it out, I'll cut off your tongue."
"I won't tell outsiders, but General, you are exposed again."
"Shut up."
The corners of Esdeath's mouth twitched. If Su Xiao's identity wasn't a cold and ruthless dark department member who had undergone cruel training, Esdeath might have silenced him.
"Give me your clothes."
Su Xiao took off his coat and threw it to Esdeath.
"Help me bandage the wound, I've lost too much blood."
Esdeath leaned weakly against the rock wall; Fenrir's claws just now had hurt her not lightly.
Su Xiao took out bandages from his close-fitting clothes, which made Esdeath somewhat surprised.
"You carry this thing with you?"
Su Xiao walked to Esdeath's front with the bandages.
"Yes, a companion once bled to death in front of me. I don't want to die yet, so I carry hemostatic bandages with me."
Su Xiao was just talking nonsense; these bandages were taken out from his storage space.
When helping Esdeath treat the wound, it was inevitable that more spring scenery would be exposed. Su Xiao saw everything he should and shouldn't see, but Esdeath didn't say anything. She had lost too much blood, and if she didn't treat the wound as soon as possible, she would die. It was true that she was a woman, but she was also a warrior.
This was the weakness of Imperial Arm users; although their abilities were powerful, their physical fitness was not excellent.
Of course, this was only relative. According to Su Xiao's guess, Esdeath's various attributes should not be worse than his, and might even be higher.
Cleaning the wound, suturing, bandaging, Su Xiao's movements were skillful; he was also often injured.
"Thanks for that slash just now, no... that was already your duty. You saved my life just now, so from now on, replace Jerome as my adjutant. Jerome is already very old and no longer suitable for marching and fighting; going to the Imperial Logistics Department is not bad, very suitable for retirement."
Although Esdeath was cruel to her enemies, she was very generous and caring to her subordinates.
As long as it was a subordinate recognized by Esdeath, she would restrain her S-type personality.
In the original work, Esdeath's subordinate Wave carelessly let the Night Raid troops go, but Esdeath only punished Wave slightly.
【Hunter has joined the Imperial faction, current position: General's Adjutant.】
【Hint: Because the Hunter is the first to join the Imperial faction, rewarded 1% World Source, currently obtained a total of 3.6% World Source.】
Su Xiao's expression was as usual, but he breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.
Becoming Esdeath's adjutant was not a low status, but it didn't mean Esdeath trusted him completely.
Su Xiao was a dark department member from another country who was parachuted in. Esdeath wanted to arrange him by her side, which could both play a role and serve as surveillance. If it were Su Xiao, he would do the same; this was human nature.
Trust could not be built overnight; this required a process.
After helping Esdeath treat the wound, Esdeath leaned against the rock wall wearing Su Xiao's coat.
"I'll sleep for a while, wake me up in three hours."
After saying this, Esdeath closed her eyes, her breathing gradually becoming light. In this cold climate, only Esdeath could sleep.
Although Esdeath used an ice wall to seal the cave entrance, the temperature inside the cave was not high, so Su Xiao had to find a way to maintain body temperature.
Coming to Fenrir's corpse, Su Xiao took a fancy to this giant wolf's fur; this thing must have good heat preservation effects.
After skinning the wolf, Su Xiao came to the ice wall that sealed the cave, Checking Zhan Long Shan slashed a hole in the ice wall, and Su Xiao walked out of the cave with the wolf skin.
Esdeath's beautiful eyes opened slightly, and finding that Su Xiao had left, Esdeath didn't say anything, just continued to rest.
Coming outside the cave in the ice and snow, the cold wind whistled. Su Xiao used accumulated snow to clean the snow-white wolf skin, draped it over himself with the fur side facing inward, and the speed of body temperature loss decreased significantly.
This was not enough, Su Xiao began to search nearby.
Twenty minutes later, Su Xiao, whose head was covered in snowflakes, returned to the cave. At this time, he was holding a pile of wood in his arms; he had found a dead tree nearby, and after slashing the dead tree into pieces, he obtained relatively dry firewood.
In less than five minutes, a bonfire rose, and the temperature inside the cave gradually increased.
Two hours later, Esdeath woke up leisurely. The wounds on her body had eased somewhat, but the large amount of blood loss left her still weak.
The cave was already very warm, and a meaty aroma drifted over. Esdeath sat up in confusion.
"Is it Fenrir's meat?"
Su Xiao was roasting a few pieces of beast meat over the fire.
"No, I've tried Fenrir's meat, it's very coarse and contains trace amounts of toxins. This is rabbit meat."
After Su Xiao shared the roasted meat with Esdeath, he ate silently. He hadn't even had a drop of water since entering the derived world.
The roasted rabbit meat didn't taste good, the meat quality was very old, and it was very hard to chew.
After the meal, Esdeath tried to stand up, and after noticing that her body was roughly fine, she left the cave with Su Xiao.
Outside the cave, the cold wind was still whistling. Esdeath, who was wrapped in bandages, and Su Xiao, who was draped in wolf skin, looked exceptionally interesting.
Half an hour later, the two returned to the Far North Fortress. This time, Su Xiao's identity was already different.
After Esdeath whispered a few words to the former adjutant, the eyes of that adjutant, who was over fifty, actually turned a bit red.
"General... I."
The old adjutant wanted to say something, but Esdeath waved her hand.
"Rest assured and retire in the Imperial Capital. No one dares to provoke my subordinates in the Imperial Capital."
This was not Esdeath being arrogant; the facts were indeed so.
The situation in the Imperial Capital was somewhat complicated. Although the little Emperor in the palace had real power, he lost his parents when he was young and was later brought up by a minister who was a confidant of the former King.
When the little Emperor was very young, that minister began to brainwash him. Nowadays, the little Emperor could be said to be obedient to that minister; that minister was cultivating the little Emperor as a puppet.
It was no longer the little Emperor who ruled the Empire now, but that minister.
Although that minister didn't look like much and had a bloated figure, his IQ was very high.
The little Emperor's parents were poisoned by the minister. After more than ten years of management, the minister held a lot of real power. If it weren't for the existence of the Supreme Imperial Arm, the little Emperor would have been disposed of long ago.
The Supreme Imperial Arm must be activated by the royal bloodline, otherwise it was just a pile of scrap metal.
If there was anyone the minister feared in the Imperial Capital, that person must be Esdeath.
