Chapter 482: Chapter 151 Code_Name_1

It seemed that the other members of Absolution were also keen to wrap up tonight’s regular meeting as soon as possible.

So, they all seconded Zheng Qing’s opinion.

"So, before we assign aliases, I need to reiterate one question... Is everyone clear about their respective positions in the hunting team?" The young scholar, wielding a piece of chalk, looked around.

"I’m the main hunter!" Zhang Ji Xin thumped his own chest once in emphasis, causing Zheng Qing’s mouth to twitch warily, fearing he might have broken his ribs.

"Substitute tracker." Blue Bird replied succinctly.

"What a coincidence, I’m also a substitute tracker..." Dylan, leaning against the lectern, fiddled with his cufflinks and added cheerfully, "I thought that students from Starry Sky Academy were more suitable for auxiliary or main hunter positions."

"No, no." Xin Fat Man shook his hands back and forth, "I can’t run, you two better not argue with me over the position of auxiliary hunter... By the way, am I Left Auxiliary or Right Aide?"

It was clear that he was unsure about his own position and looked at Xiao Xiao for clarification.

"You’re the Left Auxiliary, playing the role of meat shield for the main hunter, and when necessary, you need to be able to draw the attention of the hunt." Xiao Xiao caressed her notebook, her voice somewhat weary: "What have you been doing these days? I thought you, having grown up in the wizard world, would be a little more reliable than our captain..."

"What’s it to me!" Zheng Qing bristled, "I’m a wandering hunter, I remember!!"

"I also remember that I’m the auxiliary hunter, but just as some people often get their left and right hands mixed up," Xin started to justify himself, babbling, "Confusing Left Auxiliary and Right Aide isn’t anything new... As long as both people always follow the main hunter, there won’t be any mistakes."

"Start the agenda!" Zheng Qing slapped the blackboard with his palm, cutting off the fatty’s prattle.

"Swordsman." Blue Bird, breaking his usual reticence, spoke first, confirming his alias.

This caught everyone’s attention.

"I actually think ’Iceman’ suits you quite well." Zheng Qing shrugged, noncommittal.

"BB isn’t bad either." Xin Fat Man scratched his head, saying regretfully, "I thought hard for a very long time before I could come up with that alias for you."

"What is ’BB’?" asked the young scholar, intrigued.

"’Blue Bird’, Blue Bird, short for ’BB’." The fat man boasted.

"Isn’t that 2 ’B’s though..." Lin Guo questioned weakly from the side.

"My alias, Swordsman." Blue Bird squinted and, unusually for him, used a complete sentence to slowly repeat his preference.

The members of the Absolution hunting team immediately raised their hands and unanimously approved the alias.

"My alias is ’Gentleman’," Dylan adjusted his stand-alone collar and cufflinks leisurely, "In this room, is there anyone more gentlemanly than me?"

Zheng Qing didn’t say anything, but audibly gagged a couple of times.

"I remember there is a very famous hunting team in Europa called the ’Gentleman Hunting Team’," Xiao Xiao looked at Dylan, guessing.

"I have nothing to do with that team." Dylan tilted his head to deny, "Originally I wanted to use ’Duke’, but Friedman had already used that alias... Therefore, I had to take a step back and simply be a ’Gentleman’."

Xiao Xiao nodded, not asking any further.

Nobody else had any objections to Dylan’s choice, thus, the second alias of the hunting team was approved.

"Then..." Zheng Qing turned his inquiring gaze on Xin Fat Man.

"I think my alias ’Fatty’ is good." Xin slapped his stomach, causing a wave of flesh, and nonchalantly suggested.

Zheng Qing thought this was a case of a pot breaking that didn’t care about breaking anymore.

But he had to admit, the alias was very appropriate - no one would forget Fatty’s alias.

"Then my team alias will be ’Elder’," Zhang Ji Xin decided, bending his fingers to make a confirmation.

This was the nickname given to him by Li Meng and it seemed that Zhang Ji Xin was very willing to let the little witch call him by this nickname.

"I’ve always wondered why Li Meng gave you the nickname ’Elder’." Xin looked at the red-faced wizard suspiciously, guessing, "Could it be that you already have the title of ’Elder’’ in the Zhang family?"

"I just turned 18 this year! I’m still in school!" Zhang Ji Xin countered hastily, "Whose family has such a young elder!"

"Maybe it’s just because he looks old." Zheng Qing added with a teasing grin.

That assertion was unexpectedly reasonable.

Almost everyone stared at Red Face with curious glances, quietly nodding in agreement. Zhang Ji Xin snorted in indifference.

"As for Xiao Xiao," Zheng Qing paused for a moment, smacked his lips, "I’ve actually thought of a lot of codenames for you..."

"You say it, I’ll choose one." Xiao Xiao continued taking notes without lifting her head; her brush swiftly gliding across the paper.

"Smiley, Crybaby, Doctor, Watermelon Head, Glasses Guy..." Zheng Qing reeled off suggestions as he counted on his fingers.

"Let’s go with Doctor," Xiao Xiao lifted her eyelids, her gaze slipping past the black rim of her glasses to glance at the young student and interrupt his rambling.

"Ah, oh... don’t you want to hear more? I have plenty of other ideas..." Zheng Qing waved his arm enthusiastically, yearning for more.

"Just Doctor," Xiao Xiao repeated her preference, picked up her pen, and once again lowered her head to scribe and scribble in her notebook.

Zheng Qing shrugged and stopped wasting everyone’s time.

"What about my codename?" Lin Guo eagerly raised his hand, a glint of excitement in his eyes.

Zheng Qing hesitated for a few seconds.

Truth be told, as the manager of the Hunting team, Lin Guo didn’t have a chance to enter the Hunting Ground and therefore didn’t really need a codename.

However, he couldn’t just bluntly deflate the youthful enthusiasm of the young wizard.

"’Genius’ or ’Black Sheep’, you can choose." The young student came up with two codenames on the spot.

"Hmmm... genius, black sheep, genius, black sheep..." The young wizard pondered and after some deliberation determined, "Let’s do Black Sheep, Genius seems a bit too conspicuous... the books always say one needs to be low-key."

"So you want to be a sheep," Xin Fat Man wobbled his head, turning to look at Zheng Qing, "He’s Black Sheep, are you planning on being Fox?"

"No, no, no," Zheng Qing waved his hands dismissively, "Fox has nothing to do with me..."

"Very self-aware." Xiao Xiao commented mysteriously, "With your intelligence level, being a fox might be a bit of a stretch... how about Black Cat?"

The other members of the Hunting team were unaware of Zheng Qing’s cat transformation story, so everyone curiously looked at Xiao Xiao, hoping for a more detailed explanation.

"My codename is ’Sir’!" Zheng Qing hurriedly banged on the blackboard, drawing everyone’s attention back.

He certainly did not want to turn into a cat in the future and get his tail pulled by a bunch of big fellas.

"Why ’Sir’?" Xiao Xiao was clearly interested in the origin of this codename.

"Because I want to be a person like Sir." Zheng Qing sighed, offering no further explanation.

"In that case, let’s conclude the first order of business." Xiao Xiao tapped on the desk with her pen, rapidly summarizing, "Lead Hunter, Zhang Ji Xin, codename ’Elder’."

"Yes!" Red Face lifted his chin triumphantly.

"Left Auxiliary, Xin Bana Schmidt-Bayer, codename Fat Man."

"Right Aide, Xiao Xiao, codename Doctor."

"Number One Wandering Hunter, Blue Bird, codename Swordsman."

"Number Two Wandering Hunter, Dylan O’Brien Tabbot, codename Gentleman."

"Stray Hunter, Zheng Qing, codename Sir."

"That’s all!"
