"Because of a single sentence, everyone in that village will be killed."
Chelsea simply couldn't stand by and watch this happen.
Hill shared similar thoughts on this, but...
"The captain only asked us to investigate and confirm whether the Empire has discovered our whereabouts. If we take action now, it would be tantamount to exposing Night Raid's activities in the surrounding area."
“You’re right, Hill, but what if we take out all those guys?”
As long as no one survives, it's a perfect infiltration.
As long as the enemy is completely wiped out, no one will betray us.
Upon hearing this, Hill glanced at the ranks of the Imperial soldiers.
"We're not sure if you have any Imperial Arms users inside. If you do, we might not be able to kill them successfully."
The term "Teigan user" literally means "person who uses Teigan armor."
The Imperial Arms were forty-eight artifacts created by the First Emperor after he established the empire in order to maintain the empire's rule. They were powerful and terrifying. As long as the right person mastered them, they could have combat power that was dozens or even hundreds of times greater than that of an ordinary person.
Chelsea understood these threats perfectly well.
NightRaid's plan is extremely important and should not be exposed at this time.
only--
"That's true, but I don't intend to just let them kill everyone in the village."
Chelsea believes that if she were in the shoes of any of the other characters in Night Raid, she would have similar thoughts.
Even Hill, who was trying to dissuade him, must have secretly wanted to save the village.
"If all else fails, let's send a group of people out and lure them away."
“Chelsie, this approach will only make the Empire think that the villages are being helped and covered by Night Raid members, which will only make things worse.”
……
Chelsea fell silent after hearing Hill's words.
Because things might turn out as Hill mentioned, bringing more trouble to the village.
"The heretics who rebel against the empire are inside the village!!"
At that moment, the two heard the soldier captain's announcement.
After he finished his lines, the Imperial soldiers planned to storm the village and complete their mission of destroying everything.
But at that moment, Chelsea and Hill's eyes widened.
The two were so surprised because they saw a group of little girls appear before the Imperial soldiers.
The girls seemed intent on stopping the soldiers' atrocities, but—
"Kill them!"
Without any hesitation, the soldiers immediately issued the order to kill.
Chelsea and Hill exchanged a glance and decided to make a move.
However, before the two could leave the bushes, they heard the soldiers' mournful cries.
They looked again at the forest road near the main gate of the village.
The troops gathered there were crushed!
"What's going on with those girls...?!"
"The soldiers are no match for them at all."
As Chelsea and Hill were making their assessments, the girls, whose bodies had suddenly undergone strange changes, blasted away a group of soldiers under the moonlight.
Someone swept across the battlefield from a distance, issuing the order "yiIV务肆揪VIII";
Someone swung a knife and destroyed the shield;
Someone used a long-range weapon to pierce through the arm of an Imperial soldier.
Clearly, these girls were holding back and did not intend to wipe out the entire force of imperial soldiers.
"So strong..."
"Completely crushed."
This was an unexpected turn of events that neither of them had anticipated.
The young girls, who possessed some kind of shapeshifting ability, directly defeated the Imperial soldiers, and none of them were hit by the enemy's attacks, which was a literal victory.
boom! !
As the final impact rang out, a soldier was stomped to the ground and fell silent.
“Chelsey…”
"Okay, let's go back and report."
Chelsea made a decision immediately upon hearing Hill call her name.
However, the new surprises did not end there.
Good evening, ladies.
"?!?!?!"
Hearing the voices of others, Chelsea and Hill looked back.
Maid?
And she was a very beautifully dressed maid.
They stood on either side, their golden and silver hair shimmering in the moonlight.
"Our master wishes to see you both; please come with us."
The blonde maid extended an invitation.
Chelsea bit into the candy in her mouth and refused.
"I'm sorry, we don't have that time."
As she said this, she put her right hand behind her back and reached into the hidden pocket of her short skirt.
Chelsea has no fighting skills, but she is skilled in assassination and has therefore prepared a variety of tools.
Unsure of the other party's identity and not intending to kill, Chelsea planned to use hallucinogenic powder to disrupt the enemy's judgment.
At the same time, Hill, now on high alert, gripped a giant pair of scissors.
Its true name is Imperial Arms: Soul Cutting, its blade so sharp it can cut through anything in the world.
Because of its high hardness, it can also be used for defense, so she stood directly in front of Chelsea.
Seeing their actions, the maid on the right, Griffith, whispered a reminder.
"Please don't do anything rash. We mean no harm; we just want to get to know you two."
"If they act recklessly, we will take action here."
The maid standing on the left, Rachel, had already raised her right hand.
However, this warning had no effect. (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
Chelsea, having taken the powder from her pocket, said loudly.
"We're very busy, goodbye!"
At the very moment she was about to drop the powder bomb, the space trembled.
Sensing something amiss, Hill immediately charged forward.
As it turned out, Leviel beat her to it, and with a gentle wave of her right hand, a magical shockwave that destroyed the earth swept across the scene.
Hill raised her scissors to block, but the impact destroyed her footing and blew her into the night sky!
Out of the corner of her eye, Hill glanced at the ground and saw Chelsea lying face down, unable to move.
"Chelsey!"
"You don't have time to worry about other people, miss."
Before she could finish speaking, the figure of the blonde maid appeared before Hill's eyes.
Not intending to use a killing move, Hill swung the scissors in her hand and smashed them against her target with the back of the blade.
But a new impact erupted from the air, directly blasting the Imperial Arm from Sheele's hands away!
"Well!"
"Alright, it's time to go see the master."
As Hill heard Ravelle speak, his entire body was bound by an incomprehensible force, and he plummeted to the ground.
However, before the terrible collision with the ground, Hill found herself floating, bound by an invisible force and beginning to move.
Like her, Chelsea also floated into the air, unable to move.
"I can actually fly."
Seeing that Sheele was easily defeated and her Teigu was even knocked away, Chelsea simply gave up resisting and began to find joy in her misery.
With a puzzled expression, Xi Junqi Qi Yi Er Ba Si 4 Ba Er stared at the backs of the two maids who looked quite out of place in the woods.
"You are..."
"Lord Baili's maid."
As Rachel answered, Griffith looked at the two of them from the side.
“Master… Lord Baili said that besides the two of you, there are seven other members in an organization called NIGHTRAID. However, only four of them are currently on standby at a distant base, so he wanted to talk to you first.”
"........."
Chelsea and Hill remained silent, their expressions remaining as unchanged as possible, but inwardly they were utterly shocked.
NIGHTRAI (Li Hao Zhao) D currently has nine members: Najenda, Akame, Leone, Mine, Hill, Brand, Lubbock, Chelsea, and Susanoo.
Brand, Lubbock, and Susanoo were all healing at headquarters, so apart from Sheele and Chelsea, only Najenda, Akame, Leone, and Mine were on standby.
