Chapter 233: Chapter 43: Bad News

Traveling with Bubute Ni made the journey easier, Su Xiao no longer needed to walk.

Although Bubute Ni is an Imperial tool, it needs regular feeding to maintain vitality, which is common to biological Imperial Equipment.

Bubute Ni only needs to eat once every three days, but its appetite is quite large.

Su Xiao glanced at the half-eaten Water Buffalo; it seemed that the buffalo barely satisfied Bubute Ni’s meal.

Bubute Ni licked the blood on its mouth. Although it was the first meal, it seemed quite interested in eating, delighted while eating.

"Let’s go."

Hearing Su Xiao’s voice, Bubute Ni quickly ran over, showing no attachment to the remaining meat.

Su Xiao keenly sensed that Bubute Ni’s dark eyes were sneaking glances at the pile of meat, seeming to long for more.

There seems to be no problem with loyalty points.

Su Xiao rode on Bubute Ni, signaling it to continue on the road.

Three hours later, in front of a small village.

This is the village where the Terry family resides, and Su Xiao once promised to deliver the gemstone to Terry’s wife and daughter.

Su Xiao would fulfill promises made, but now it seems there is no chance.

The village where the Terry family lived is charred black, with wisps of smoke rising, all the buildings turned to charcoal, the burning stench traveling far.

"Bu Bu, go in."

Bubute Ni cautiously stepped into the charred village, eyes flashing with the light of a wolf. It wasn’t stupid in the face of potential danger.

Bubute Ni suddenly lowered its head, its sensitive nose seemed to have caught a scent.

Soon, Bubute Ni ran to a burnt building, barking twice.

"Hmm?"

Su Xiao looked at Bubute Ni puzzled, unclear about its intentions.

Bubute Ni moved to a pile of charcoal, extending sharp claws from its front paws, starting to dig in the pile.

Su Xiao jumped off Bubute Ni’s back, looking at it in confusion.

A minute later, Bubute Ni dragged a charcoal-covered human figure from the pile.

This was a man with extensive burns all over, limbs charred, barely clinging to life.

Bubute Ni placed the man in front of Su Xiao, baring sharp teeth, ready to bite if the man moved.

Bubute Ni inherited canine loyalty and the ferocity and sharpness of a wolf, finding a survivor in such a place highlights its keen sense of smell.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Severe dry coughing followed, waking the severely burned man.

"Kill... me, please kill me."

The agony of being burned drove this man to seek death.

"What happened here, answer and I’ll make it quick."

"In... Incineration Troop, kill... kill me."

Su Xiao understood, the Incineration Troop had been here, explaining the tragedy.

"Where is the Terry family?"

"First house by the village entrance, please... it’s so painful."

Su Xiao got the answer he wanted, signaling Bubute Ni to deal with him.

Understandingly, Bubute Ni immediately bit down on the man’s throat.

"Let’s go."

Riding on Bubute Ni’s back, Su Xiao indicated towards the village entrance.

Reaching the village entrance, the scene was even worse than before, houses reduced to frameworks, with no survivors possible.

"It seems the whole family perished together."

Su Xiao took out the gemstone bag, tossing it into the nearby charcoal.

The sound of the bag shattering was heard as various gemstones became conspicuous amidst the blackened charcoal.

"Let’s go, this direction."

Su Xiao pointed towards the Imperial Capital, and Bubute Ni sprinted forward.

He had been away from the Imperial Capital for three days, with two days left before he had to return.

Su Xiao began the long journey back on Bubute Ni, finding its endurance impressive, running for seven hours without panting.

In some ways, Bubute Ni was better than a car for travel, not only comfortable but also ignoring rough terrain.

Su Xiao mused that if he had Bubute Ni earlier, Leone and Red Eye couldn’t have escaped.

Su Xiao tested its smell, several times stronger than regular dogs, useful when hunting down enemies while riding Bubute Ni.

Imagine this, enemies fleeing in front, he chasing them riding Bubute Ni, such pursuit saves energy and effort.

After traveling for about ten hours, Su Xiao returned to the outskirts of the Imperial Capital.

Here, he put Bubute Ni away, placing its core in storage space.

Suddenly having an extra Imperial tool was hard to explain, or simply impossible.

The Empire recorded the appearances and functions of forty-eight Imperial tools, and Bubute Ni wasn’t among them.

If Esdeath saw Bubute Ni, she’d recognize it; Bubute Ni looked too much like Giant Wolf Fenrir.

The Imperial Capital remained unchanged, Su Xiao made appearances around the Royal Palace, then the Third Shadow Department, Esdeath’s camps, to mislead others.

Walking onto the street, Su Xiao sensed a strange atmosphere in the Imperial Capital, when a black-haired girl led soldiers towards him.

"Bai Ye? Where have you been these days?"

Approaching was Black Pupil, with the long knife Jaegers at her belt, an army following, ready for battle.

"I went to the outskirts searching for Night Raid Team’s base, both escapees ran towards the outskirts."

Black Pupil didn’t suspect anything.

"Something happened, Dr. Fashion and Lan were killed."

Su Xiao was shocked.

"When did this happen?"

"Last night, both killed at home, no sound heard by nearby residents, and this card left at the scene."

Black Pupil produced a Tarot Card, seeing it Su Xiao’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Taking the Tarot Card from Black Pupil, Su Xiao examined it closely.

The back had mysterious patterns, the front blank with faint burn marks.

"Left by the killer?"

"Yes, dozens left at the scene, all identical."

"I’ll keep this one."

"Shall we find the killer together?"

Su Xiao nodded, partnering with Black Pupil, avoiding suspicion about his whereabouts.

Su Xiao and Black Pupil led soldiers checking the Imperial Capital.

Though Black Pupil wasn’t warm to Hunter Troop companions, her sense of companionship was intense, almost pathological.

Black Pupil once killed a dying companion with Jaegers to ensure seeing them again.

The Hunter Troop’s formation met by two deaths angered Esdeath, sending troops to thoroughly eliminate suspects.

Su Xiao joined the search but awaited something else.
