Molfi base, common regional meeting room.

All five of the clan's chiefs were here—four of them were accompanied by one, either a guard or a lover.

Thinking about it this way, Murphy is really harmonious and friendly, isn't it? Reins thought idly. You have to bring a bodyguard to a meeting between allies...... Well, Hua Shao and Huck were the other way around, and so was that Sanger Ryan and his wife. It seems that only the boy is the real escort, and even if Gail is Yura's bodyguard, he will also be Yura's lover, in the future.

That's why she had to bring Lillian over in order to be "gregarious", oh, what a disaster.

Not everyone present brought one with them, so Ilo Ganillo was very comfortable coming by herself, and ran to Lillian's side and talked to her with a shy face, even though Lillian made a stinky face. Whereas...... Ah, of course, there's one more person too.

She let her gaze away from a blonde man present.

They are here today because someone in Sanger Ryan's family has found traces of the Soul Wounded Beast in the Toyk Forest.

"This is the information reported by that member, you can take a look at it first." Sanger Ryan's wife, Ozra Ryan, distributed the information to everyone.

Reins focused on this clear and concise report. The member listed the key items one, two, three, and four, and then put all the details of what he saw at the end. It must be said that this is her preferred way of reporting, which not only highlights the important points, but also does not miss a single detail.

The report wasn't lengthy, so she read it quickly, and she began to think a little while her fingers unconsciously tapped on the table. When she finished her thoughts about the Soul Breaker, she realized that everyone else was already looking at her.

"How?" She raised an eyebrow and asked, "What kind of eyes are you looking at, waiting for me to be the first to speak?" ”

"I think you know the most about soul wounding beasts." Hua Shao explained, "And we know almost nothing about them, so I hope you can teach us." ”

"Oh no, I can't be a teacher." Reins lazily placed the report on the table, "I'm just giving you what I know - this is supposed to be the Soul Wounding Beast's lair." ”

"Lair?" Huck asked, "But this member only observed a soul-wounding beast wandering outside. ”

"That's the point of judgment, Mr. Huck Wright."

Reines sat up straight.

"Driver, keep an eye on your own report, don't look at me, I have to provide information based on this report." She took the water from the mechanical machine in the conference room, and put it on the table, "The Soul Wounding Beast is not a magical beast that can walk around and play when there is nothing to do, it was created for only one purpose, and that is to kill. However, it has only been observed to wander along a certain area of the forest, and occasionally hunts some animals and takes them to a certain place - suggesting that it is patrolling and searching for food for its young. ”

"Cubs?" Yura exclaimed slightly, "I thought the creature wouldn't have cubs. ”

"Ah, it's clear that Roseos is using some hack that we haven't mastered yet." Reins smirked, "No, don't ask me what Roseos is just yet, you just need to know that this name belongs to the agency that created the Soul Wounding Beast, which is now our common enemy." ”

Reins took a sip of water from her glass, giving them time to remember the name Roseos.

"Alright, let's move on. Soul Breaker cubs are neither aggressive nor defensive until they reach adulthood, so they need adults to forage for food outside and guard their own nests. ”

"So if that member had followed the Soul Wounded Beast to their lair, would he have been able to destroy the cubs?" Nadeau asked.

"Thank you, Goddess, he wasn't really that reckless, otherwise we might have only been able to hear from this member in a few days." Reins scoffed, "Remember, the Soul Breaker won't leave its cubs, and if it does, it means that there are other Soul Breakers guarding them." ”

The leaders' faces changed.

"Two soul-wounding beasts?" Iloh rubbed his chin and said - the movement looked strikingly similar to Lillian's, "That doesn't look good......

"I hope you're not serious about that, Mr. Ganillo." Reinth picked up the report and flicked it lightly, "This is just their initial lair, as there will only be a maximum of two full-grown soul wounding beasts. If there are more than two, there will be more than one of your members patrolling the outside. ”

Iroh's expression looked like he had seen the end of the world.

"It's just 'primary'?"

"That's right." Reins said crisply, "There's more to come...... Come on, don't put on a face like that, even if it's a high-level lair, something that can be solved with a single Fili mercenary group. ”

“…… Is there still after Premium? Like super or something? ”

Reins looked at Ilo like a fool.

"Super lair? No, there's no such naming, it sounds as stupid as Leanne. She ignored the latter's complaints, "There are only four nests: newborn, primary, intermediate, and advanced, and nothing else." Don't bother with the first one, there is only one Soul Breaker and a different number of cubs, and Soul Breaker will easily die to protect the cubs. ”

Hua Shao wrote something on the report with a pen and asked, "So we can determine the situation now, right?" A primary lair with two soul-wounding beasts, and a portion of the cubs inside. That is, the main thing we need to deal with is the two soul wounding beasts, and we should decide the combat power for this. ”

"Although that's generally the case." Reins fixed his gaze to one of the entries in the report, "But we need to pay attention...... There is always a moment when the cub grows up, and unfortunately, the growth of the soul wounding beast does not need to be counted in years. ”

Hua Shao's pen paused, and she looked up at Rheins, the expression on her face was very grim.

"I can't fail to praise your members." Reins pointed her finger at the one item on the report, "He's very careful, yes, very careful...... He provided a specific difference between humidity and temperature within the range of the Soul Breaker's activity, which allowed us to calculate how long it would take for the cubs to grow. ”

"Oh, of course, that's what Apaya reminded us of." Hua Shao glanced at the blonde man sitting not far from them, and then looked back at Reins, there was an imperceptible unnaturalness on the mercenary's face, "Even a change in the ambient temperature can represent something special, so don't let go of any detail...... He came back to tell us after a visit to the ruins, and I think he got your advice. ”

"Maybe ......," Reins said softly, and then immediately turned back to business, "according to this information, we have only two weeks at the shortest, and a month at most to deal with this. I think it's best to prepare in the shortest possible time...... Although this time is a little tight. ”

Hua Shao looked at Reine's expression inquiringly, but she didn't say anything about her bizarre performance in the end.

"What special preparations are needed to deal with the Soul Wounded Beast?" Hua Shao picked up the pen and looked like he wanted to continue recording, "Isn't two weeks enough?" ”

"Oh no, I'm sure you didn't understand what I meant, dear Shao." Reins looked a little embarrassed, "There's nothing wrong with the Soul Wounding Beast itself, as long as you don't get scratched by it, there's no problem - the point is, I think you need to run in with the battle members of the family and the mercenaries first." ”

Hua Shao blinked.

"I think you have a point. If the family and the mercenaries can cooperate smoothly, the combat power should be even better. ”

"And I didn't even expect the two sides to work together." Reins seemed to think of something, and her expression became complicated, "As long as they can not attack each other in battle, this is a blessing...... I don't know what happened to the other mercenaries, but the Fili, especially the one next to me, is not a master who can stay where he is and attack, and I wouldn't be surprised if she suddenly appeared in front of your cannon fire. ”

"Huh?!" Lillian looked very unhappy, "Am I that stupid?" ”

"There's no doubt about it, Leanne." Reins said unceremoniously, "You have." ”

Lillian looked like she wanted to open her mouth to bite her to death.

"So I think the two sides need to practice working together in advance." Reins turned her gaze to Hua Shao's face, "There is still a way to deal with the accidental injury here, if you hurt your teammates in the lair of the soul wounding beast, then you may not be able to come out alive." ”

"If it's like what you said, it's really necessary......"

Hua Shao looked like he wanted to laugh. Although the run-in is an inevitable and necessary process, the other party's merciless taunting of Lillian makes this matter a little ridiculous.

"I said you can't save face?" Lillian grumbled, "I just accidentally bumped into the muzzle of Imi's gun one time." ”

They walked back to the corridor of the station, the meeting had already decided on a specific plan for the battle, and now they just needed to go back and make some preparations. The mercenaries involved in the battle this time were Reins and Lilian.

"If I save face for you sometimes, you'll definitely question who I am first." Rhines snorted disdainfully, "Come on, White-Eyed Wolf. ”

Lillian snorted heavily, then put herself on Rheins' shoulder.

"It's been a week, Rhein. Are you two going to be at such a stalemate? ”

"I don't think it's a stalemate." Reins sighed softly, "Isn't that obvious? He couldn't accept my affairs, so he gave up. ”

"Ella doesn't think so." Lillian said, "She said she could still see that the souls of the two of you were inseparable—in fact, not in the slightest waver. ”

“…… Maybe Ella was wrong. Reins avoided Lilian's gaze, "There are so many soul breaths, she may not have been able to tell the difference-"

"Do you need me to hit you?"

“…… No, thanks. Reins pouted, "So what do you want me to do?" Why don't you go to him and ask him directly, 'Can you accept those things and give a good talk?'" ”

"That's right." Lillian said as a matter of course, "Why can't you ask?" ”

Reins wanted to throw her to the ground, but before that, Lillian had continued.

"You don't want to take the initiative to work on your relationship for once?"

She stopped, and Lillian straightened up from her, then stared at her tightly.

"It's no one else's business, it's your own." Lillian said, "If you don't even take the initiative to try it yourself, why do you want it to succeed?" ”
