Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 255 The Dark South China Sea

Kai's arrival brought a lot of vitality and life to this lifeless intensive care unit, although the pure and bright smile that she once had is no longer visible on her face.

However, after experiencing those extremely cruel things, Nero took relatively good care of Kai, a descendant of the same clan. At least Kai no longer looked haggard, and his face finally had some flesh on it.

However, the sadness in her eyes cannot be soothed for the time being.

……

Milo tried his best not to mention anything about the town of Icam, and the conversation focused more on Nanvi City, such as asking what she had been doing lately or whether Nero had processed her enrollment.

Kay seemed to deliberately avoid mentioning Icam's past, not saying a word about it.

The only time the two of them crossed paths was in Ikham.

It must be said that Kay is indeed a lovable child. Her care for Rebecca is incredibly devoted, just as she did when she single-handedly cared for several younger orphans in Ikm. She's not just lovable, but also deeply heartbreaking.

She immediately asked Nero to visit her after learning that Rebecca was seriously injured, and the two apparently had an argument about it at home.

The exact details of the argument are unknown to Milo, but it's clear that Nero wasn't as assertive in front of Kai as he was in front of Milo.

Kai's arrival, however, made Milo feel a sense of pressure.

It's not so much pressure as a responsibility?
After all, he now had to protect two women who were completely defenseless.

Of course, Kay was unaware of the potential dangers in the intensive care unit. All she knew was that Rebecca had held her tightly during her most helpless and devastating time in the town of Icam. Now that Rebecca was seriously injured and collapsed, she felt obligated to do her part.

For the next few days, Kai was responsible for wiping Rebecca's body, changing her clothes, and paying close attention to her condition.

Milo spent most of his time sitting on the bench by the door.

Oh right, and that black cat too. It spends most of its time on the bench, sitting up straight, and seems even more alert than Milo.

Moreover, it didn't seem to like Kai very much. It was willing to fawn over Milo and rub against him, but it wouldn't let Kai touch it, not even once.

When it gets tired, it will quietly return to the ward, crawl into Rebecca's bed and take a nap. After waking up, it will go back to the door to keep watch.

Milo had no idea where the kitten had come from, nor how it had dealt with the two zombies. The only thing he was sure of was that this creature was definitely not as harmless as it appeared.

Because it can see the seven exiled members.

Yes, this little guy can see Eric and the others.

……

At first, Milo didn't even notice this.

It was once when Kai had prepared a meal and brought it to Milo that he casually remarked, "Why is the little kitty staring blankly at the wall?"

Milo looked up and saw Eric's shadow on the wall.

Just like when it first met Nero, the little black cat bared its teeth and hissed at Eric's shadow, letting out a low growl.

Surprised, Milo could only casually say, "Maybe it saw something dirty. That's what I heard from the old folks."

Kai was skeptical.

Only Eric on the wall made a questioning gesture—"Dirty stuff?"

...

……

For the next few days, Milo stayed at St. George's Hospital, on duty 24 hours a day.

He is very patient.

He was especially vigilant at night compared to during the day.

Because zombies are afraid of strong light, the probability of them attacking during the day is basically zero; nighttime is the best time for them to be active.

However, several days passed without any living corpses appearing in St. George's Hospital.

However, Milo patiently waited for his prey to come to him. The only cleanup work that needed to be done after the Glaqi incident was dealing with these remaining undead, or rather, his abandoned servants.

Without Glagi's guidance, these wandering undead will probably only remember the last killing order they received.

With Milo guarding Rebecca, Nanwei City finally entered a brief period of stability, although the gloom had not completely dissipated.

……

...

Meanwhile, on the islands in the southeastern sea, thousands of miles away from Nanwei City.

The person who started it all already knows how this whole mess will end.

In a cemetery covered with countless primeval plants, the raven had just emerged from the watchful gaze of the undead that had been lingering for dozens of years.

His face looked a bit more haggard than before.

But when he opened his eyes, his gaze was clearer and sharper than before.

News from Nanwei City has confirmed that his prized student failed to deliver the corpse of the Spirit Visioner.

"Your defeat was foreseeable, but I didn't expect that the ancient Great Old Ones would also lose. Perhaps my decision to postpone my return to the interior was wise."

"Valrokan is no ordinary psychic."

The raven already knew of Sansa's death.

But his face showed no trace of sadness.

Perhaps he never truly regarded that descendant of the clan as a student, or perhaps the concept of a student was no different from that of a tool to him.

Compared to Sansa's death, the defeat of a surviving, fully-formed Great Old One is more worthy of Raven's deep reflection.

The Monsis school he inherited did not contain the reverence for ancient beings found in traditional church covenants, but he was well aware of how small and helpless weak humans were when they faced these ancient beings head-on.

However, the unknown young man in Nanwei City successfully drove away Graki all by himself.

This was something the raven never expected.

The main purpose of summoning Glachi was not simply to kill Milo; the deeper purpose was to create chaos within the church.

He wanted to know how the Contract Organization would respond when an ancient being descended upon the city where the state religion was born.

Unfortunately, throughout the entire incident, the Contract Organization ultimately failed to appear.

The raven was somewhat unwilling.

But he quickly calmed down the meaningless negative emotions in his heart and shifted all his thoughts to the work at hand.

……

Although the plan to be located far inland has fallen through.

But in the archipelago, Raven finally found the tombstone he had been searching for all along.

Furthermore, he had thoroughly understood the life of the tomb's occupant.

……

The name engraved on this moss-covered stone tablet is Fenich Wilfred.

The compiler of that evil manuscript that was scattered throughout the world.

Now, there is no longer a need to painstakingly collect all two hundred-plus fragments that have been circulating in various corners of the world.

Because all the contents recorded in the manuscript had already entered the raven's mind.
