"Boss, are you leading troops before your injuries have healed?"
The half-vampire with two general stars on his uniform looked at Kovi with some concern.
Despite his waist being wrapped in bandages, he insisted on wearing that familiar suit, ignoring everyone's objections.
“That’s right, Minister of War, let’s wait until the injury heals before we talk about it!” The other vampires chimed in with their advice.
However, Kovi did not listen to them. Instead, he skillfully put on white gloves, and as he opened and closed his hands, the gloves immediately emitted a blue glow.
Hmm, it fits pretty well!
Kovi nodded and walked to the mirror to tidy his clothes.
A gentleman, even a thug in a suit, must maintain proper etiquette.
As he tugged at his tie, Covey suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen.
That was the injury caused by Fagga's punch last time!
After all, he wasn't a pure-blooded vampire. Compared to Bourne, who was injured and then recovered, only to be inexplicably taken to the Outer Rings by Misa and Blackfa to die, Kove's injuries still hadn't healed after going through the whole process.
But Cove hid it well, secretly wiping the sweat from his brow, and no half-vampire noticed.
"Don't worry so much, it's just catching a mouse."
Kovi, adjusting his tie, addressed the crowd with feigned nonchalance.
Incidentally, he slipped his fluorescent phone into his suit pocket. On the faintly glowing screen, he saw a text message from the clan elder—
[Kovi, take your troops to the southwest corner of New Elidu. I've sent you the coordinates.]
The rat has sent another message to the outer ring: this time, we must catch her no matter what!
"Sigh, this is all I can do after getting injured."
Kovi sighed, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
Ever since he was severely injured by Faja's punch, the tribe has been showering him with praise, but the real, lucrative positions have been clearly reduced.
Previously, they could also carry out special operations and command troops.
Now all Kovi can do is catch mice, which is really embarrassing.
"Never mind, I'll get promoted once I've recovered from my injury."
Thinking this to himself, Kovi immediately shouted, "Don't just stand there! Hey, you big oaf, are you ready with the five companies I asked you to gather?"
Big Black was stunned for a moment, his flowing eyebrows full of surprise: "Boss, one rat doesn't need five companies, does it?"
Keep in mind that a company has at least a hundred people!
Five companies, that's close to six hundred people!
"Just go and call it! That mouse is incredibly slippery; catching it is too much trouble! Besides..."
He had only spoken halfway when Kovi suddenly cut himself off, his eyes narrowing and his gaze slightly hostile.
The next second, Kovi squinted and bowed slightly:
"Miss Misa, have a pleasant afternoon. May I ask what brings you here? If you are merely here to relax, then it would be best for you to leave this military-controlled area as soon as possible."
Although Misa held a prominent position within her tribe, she had unknowingly caused Bourne's death in the Outer Rings, which troubled Kovi and made him increasingly unhappy with Misa.
"Don't be like that! Bourne's sacrifice wasn't my fault, you should be looking for Blackfa!"
Misa tilted her head, gently covered her mouth, and smiled slightly.
Kovi frowned: "What do you mean?"
Perhaps due to the significant impact of the situation, even the title of "Kovie" has been lost.
"It doesn't mean anything, I was just saying... Remember, I didn't say anything. Whatever you're thinking is just your own wild guess, it has nothing to do with me!"
Misa chuckled softly, covering her red lips with her hand.
She quickly wiped the smile off her face and said seriously:
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. I have something else to ask you about. Have you spread the false information about me not being afraid of sunlight?"
"The news has spread. Whether that rat believes it or not, or whether it relays the message back to the outer ring, is none of my business."
Kovi answered casually, and seeing that Big Black had returned with several neat rows of soldiers standing behind him, he waved his hand and shouted, "Let's go!"
At the same moment, the five squads received their orders and quickly arrived outside the parade ground to find their respective troop transport vehicles.
A few seconds later, Kovi, who had already boarded the troop carrier, closed the door. Looking in the rearview mirror, he saw the entire army assembled and ready to go. He closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"
Ding ding~ Buzz!
With the engine roaring, the troop carrier sped away.
Ten minutes later, the troop carrier arrived at the southwest corner of New Elidu.
Before the troop carrier could stop on its own, Kovi immediately jumped out of the window. A sharp pain suddenly shot through his abdomen, but Kovi didn't utter a sound. After his face contorted a few times, he quickly walked forward.
The scene before my eyes was one of ruins, with towering buildings behind me, windows nearly shattered, and shop signs drooping as if a slight gust of wind would knock them to the ground.
Kovi took two more steps forward, and the soldiers all jumped off the troop carriers and stood scattered, awaiting Kovi's orders.
"The location signal disappeared two minutes ago, meaning the mouse only ended communication with the outer ring two minutes ago..."
"Then she must not have gone far!"
Kovi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately shouted, "All troops, listen up! Carpet sweep..."
Bang!
