Chapter 229 Who is the winner (Part )
There are still fifty-five minutes before the heavy rain starts.

Fang Yi stayed in [Night Raid] and the 'intelligent crow' Yajiu was conveying Fang Yi's instructions to everyone in [Night Raid].

“There are six main enemies this time, and Lord Fang Yi has already provided a strategy to deal with them.

"The battlefield will be fixed at the suburban mansion of the woman named Arya from last time.

"The enemy consists of three warriors who master 'momentum' and three [Imperial Equipment Users]."

Looking at everyone who had stopped what they were doing, Yajiu paused and began to convey Fang Yi's response strategy.

"Lord Fang Yi will strive to separate the enemy with a thick fog. [Imperial Weapon User] Lan, this persuasive enemy will be dealt with by Lubbock. Lord Fang Yi will discuss the plan with you in person after we reunite.

"Mr. Disma will deal with the [Imperial Weapon User] Daidas, who controls the 'momentum'. Gozchi hopes that Miss Akame will delay them for a while. Once we reunite, Mr. Fangyi will tell you how to deal with them."

"Mr. Brand, if you wish to fight, please ambush in the garden in advance. Lord Fang Yi will join you and together we will fight Zhu Tian and several [Imperial Tool Users].

"Miss Hill, please stay at the camp with Miss Myne. Miss Chelsea, please meet up with Master Fang Yi in advance. He will tell you your mission."

After hearing what Yajiu, who stayed behind in the [Night Raid] camp with Fang Yi, said, everyone in the [Night Raid] camp did not say anything, but just looked at each other.

Brand, who had not yet recovered, spoke first. He held up an iron spear and shook it, then smiled, revealing his two rows of teeth.

The strongest man in the [Night Raid] began to boost the morale of his teammates.

“As for the will to fight, as long as I can still move, I have only one answer.

"I will fight until the last drop of blood is drained from my veins!

"Although my injuries haven't healed yet, I can still make my contribution on the battlefield!
"Besides, I'm the strongest among these people, so naturally I have to pick the strongest enemies!"

After hearing Brand's remarks, Lubbock smoothed his hair and said jokingly.

“I’m really being looked down upon.

“Although I haven’t recovered yet, Fang Yi actually only assigned me the task of persuading the enemy?

"But since I've been receiving Fang Yi's treatment, I still owe him a favor. Even if it costs me my life, I will complete my mission."

The assassin simply gripped the knife in her hand and said in a low voice, "Goziqi, the enemy, is destroyed."

Then he added in his heart, "For victory in this battle, for Fang Yi, I will kill you, Goziqi."

Marin, who was still a little exhausted and had not yet recovered her fighting strength, was about to jump up and refute the crow's words after hearing the mission of staying behind.

Then, the pink-haired sniper remembered the promise he owed Fang Yi, so he suppressed his temper and replied unwillingly.

"I will protect the house. My body is so disappointing!"

The other members of [Night Raid] did not respond, but just checked their weapons.

The enemy in this battle is powerful and we cannot afford to be careless.

At this moment, there are still fifty-three minutes before the heavy rain falls.
-
There are still fifty minutes before the heavy rain starts.

Fang Yi, who had completed the strategic deployment, was forcing Arya to return to the suburban residence under the pretext of sorting out his belongings. While resting as the "Imperial Youth Fang Yi", he studied his own "momentum".

After completing two tasks and obtaining the knowledge related to "momentum" from the space, and after using the item "Fist King Temple Hundred Rift Fist: The Essence of Momentum and Fist Techniques" from the Minister, he had already vaguely sensed that his own "momentum" was about to emerge.

At the same time, the combination of [White Eyebrow Fist] and [Fist King Temple Hundred Rift Fist] is only one step away from forming a boxing-derived skill.

However, Fang Yi is stuck here now.

Although the improvement in his boxing skills was aided by the item given by the [Minister], it was obvious that he had acquired this knowledge in too short a time.

He obviously still lacks some precipitation and combat catalyst.

At the same time, one's own 'momentum' will be stronger because one uses too many and complicated means, but its creation will also be more difficult than that of ordinary people.

Before the action time designated for this battle, Fang Yi had been trying to recapture the feeling of using his skills in the past, trying to rediscover and catalyze his own 'momentum', but he still failed.

In the end, he had to put on the mask with some regret and exchanged identities with Chelsea, letting her play the role of [Imperial Youth Fang Yi] and go to meet up with Lubbock and Akame.

After testing the actual effect of [Diligent Learning] using the "momentum" on Disma, he wanted to tell Miss Assassin a good news.
-
There are still forty-seven minutes before the heavy rain starts.

Fang Yi briefly described to Lubbock the origin and function of the [Imperial Equipment User] named Lan.

He also learned about Lan's deep-seated ambition to "reform the empire from within," and the identity of the murderer of his student, who he had been pursuing, and who turned out to be a certain "Imperial Tool User" from the "Minister Camp."

Lubbock already knew how to convince his opponent to remain on the sidelines and "fix the match."

After assigning the task to Lubbock, Fang Yi looked at the assassin lady, grabbed her wrist in the face of her surprise, pulled her to a corner, and spoke to her in a serious tone.

"I'm sorry to assign you the target of Gozizi.

"But right now I'm not strong enough to fight, and I need your help.

"Our promise of 'exchanging killings' still stands. I will find a way to deal with Zhu Tian and several [Imperial Tool Users], then return and kill Goziqi.

"Please feel my 'power'. I can lend it to you temporarily as long as you need it."

Miss Assassin first nodded to indicate her agreement to fight Gozizi.

Just as Fang Yi was about to leave, the assassin lady firmly grasped Fang Yi's hand, looked at Fang Yi's face seriously, and asked the precise question that Fang Yi wanted to evade.

“So what’s the price?

"What's the price for borrowing your 'momentum' in battle? This convenient ability must come at a price.

"Don't lie to me, this ability comes at no cost."

Fang Yi looked at the assassin lady and thought to himself that this was not good.

[Why is this woman as hard to fool as Disma? Will she refuse to borrow my 'power' like Disma did?]

Seeing Miss Assassin's eyes becoming increasingly sharp, Fang Yi had no choice but to tell Miss Assassin the truth just like he did to Disma.

"To borrow my 'shi', my spirit will be exhausted."

Miss Assassin pressed on, "What else? You haven't finished yet, have you?"

[How come this woman has such good intuition? She's so hard to fool!]

*
Looking at the concerned look in Miss Assassin's eyes, Fang Yi had no choice but to add the price of borrowing "momentum".

“Right now, my [Spirit] attribute is insufficient.

"Therefore, when you borrow my 'momentum', my ability to use this skill will be weakened, and in extreme cases, it may become unusable."

Miss Assassin touched [Murasame] and looked at Fang Yi seriously and said.

"You will be facing the strongest enemy, so I will never take away your momentum during the battle.

"Even if I didn't have the momentum, I would have beaten Gozizi.

"This is my promise to you!"

Fang Yi was speechless and could only give Miss Assassin a hug and comfort her.

“The winner of this battle with Zhu Tian will definitely be me.

"Since you're unwilling to lend me your 'momentum', I can lend you the flaming and brilliant swordsmanship I used during our previous training.

"The swordsmanship I learned from my friend Tsugikuni Yoriichi is very powerful and will definitely help you defeat Gozic. I probably won't use it in battle, so I won't pay anything for lending it to you.

"Also, if you are in the worst possible situation, please boldly borrow my 'power' to ensure your own survival. I can defeat the enemy even without 'power'."

The assassin lady hugged Fang Yi tightly. In order to ensure that the man in front of her would have an extra "card" to use in the battle, the assassin lady, who actually had no confidence in her control of the "momentum" and was not sure of defeating Gozizi, told Fang Yi the first lie in her life.

“I’ll win too.

"I will definitely seize the opportunity in the battle and defeat Goziqi.

"The winner of this battle will definitely be me."

Looking at Fang Yi who was hugging her and comforting her, Miss Assassin added a sentence in her heart.

[I still can't accept other people's kindness as a matter of course.]

[This exchange of killings, where you reap the benefits while leaving the cost to others, is truly cunning.]

The assassin lady's mind flashed back to Goziqi, the 'father' who had deceived her and nurtured her over the past eight years.

It took her only a second to make the decision.

[The cost of killing Gozizi must be borne by me.]

【I will kill the enemy for the sake of justice.】

She said something secretly in her heart.

"If only one of us can survive this battle, I would like to give that opportunity to you, Fang Yi."

The assassin lady didn't notice that an aura of being able to cut through anything appeared on her body for a moment.

Then, this momentum disappeared just like the night she defeated Goziqi a few days ago.
-
After Fang Yi, Chi Tong and Lubbock met up not far from Arya's house and arranged their tactics, they released the iconic mist of [Death in the Mist] and headed towards Arya's house, implementing a strategy to attract the enemy.

Fang Yi, who already knew that the enemy had deployed dense firepower around the target of assassination, naturally did not intend to step into Gozizi's trap.

Instead, he chose to attack [Imperial Youth Fang Yi], the 'key figure' of the [Minister's Camp], forcing Goziqi to step into his trap.

Less than five minutes later, Fang Yi suddenly realized what was going on when he saw Zhu Tian, ​​Goziqi and several [Imperial Equipment Users] appear in his field of vision and felt the "momentum" in his body begin to ring and his palms move strangely.

Instead of chasing after illusory inspiration, it is better to push oneself to the limit with a hearty battle to accelerate the birth of "momentum" and boxing techniques.

【Then let’s fight.】

【I will definitely win this battle.】

Fang Yi thought so.

At this moment, there are still forty minutes before the heavy rain falls.
-
At the same time, Gozizi looked at the three enemies in the distance who were disguised to varying degrees, feeling a little annoyed.

He suspected that someone in the [Minister's] intelligence network had betrayed him.

Otherwise, how could the enemy know the address of Fang Yi, a crucial figure in the [Minister]'s plan, and know that there were spies nearby, and that only he was preparing for battle? Thus, they released a thick fog at the enemy's residence, precisely forcing him to abandon his carefully arranged position and step into the enemy's trap.

He took a look at the enemy in front of him, and looked at the three people who fled to Arya's house after he appeared in their sight, and began to assess their fighting strength.
“However, the enemy’s strength did not exceed my expectations.

"Why did they flee to that villa? Were there any companions waiting for them or ambushing them in the villa?

"The enemy's only remaining fighting force is probably the Imperial Weapon User named Hill or that unidentified enemy."

Goziqi looked at the spies who were keeping watch around him, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that 'Fang Yi' in the mansion was still alive.

After the cyborgs 'Ears' and 'Nose' reported to him the locations of Akadoe and Lubbock in the mansion using the fragments of Akadoe and Lubbock's clothing collected after the war, he issued his instructions to the members.

"Lan, you will be responsible for high-altitude reconnaissance and choosing the right time to support the battlefield. The soldiers can't come immediately, so you can act according to the situation.

"Zhu Tian, ​​take the two Imperial Weapon Users, Niu and Kosmia, away, and deal with the Death God in the Mist and the unidentified enemy.

"Daidas and I sneaked in from the side and headed to the warehouse to rescue Fang Yi while dealing with Akame and another enemy.

"The fog is also our cover!"

*
At the same time, Arya, who had returned to the warehouse under Chelsea's guidance, was already a little panicked when she saw the fog rising again.

She held Chelsea, who had transformed into Fang Yi, trembling constantly, and said in a trembling voice, "Let's go."

Chelsea looked at the young lady in human skin with pity, but did not take any other action.

After seeing that Disma, who was 'supposed to stay in the rich area', had changed his clothes and completed his disguise, he appeared not far away, holding a flintlock 'aiming at himself' in one hand and a dagger in the other.

When Akame appeared next to the collapsed warehouse, pulled out Murasame, and began to gesture to himself, telling him to execute Plan 2, and that Gozchi would be here in three seconds.

Chelsea took a deep breath to calm herself, then drew her sword and started fighting with Disma and Akame.

She didn't start her performance until she saw Gozizi appear not far away and officially enter the venue.

*
Gozizi and Daidas appeared near the warehouse. After sensing a force that appeared and then disappeared, their uneasiness grew.

So he quickened his pace and happened to witness a scene that broke his heart.

Fang Yi, holding a knife, protected Arya behind him and "barely" blocked Akame's [Murasame] with his knife.

However, he was hit in the torso by several tricky bullets from Disma, and blood was flowing all over his body.

Then Arya staggered and "actively" blocked Akagi's [Murasame] for Fang Yi, and the curse spread immediately and she died tragically in front of everyone.

Although Fang Yi was already at the end of his strength and didn't have much power in his hands, he seemed to be very angry about Arya's death.

His eyes were still determined, and he was fighting fiercely with Chi Tong.

Meanwhile, Disma had already put away his gun and instead drew his dagger and ran towards Fang Yi, obviously intending to take his life.

Gozizi and Daidas looked at each other and instantly understood their respective tasks.

This muscular man holding the [Imperial Weapon] [Two Great Axes - Belwak], suddenly exerted force with his arm muscles, and a weak but powerful "momentum" slowly unfolded.

As he moved, the [Imperial Weapon] [Belvak] in his hand split into two and he threw it with all his strength to stop Disma's advance.

Gozizi on the side drew out the [Ministerial Tool] [Kiri Ichimonji] in his hand, and instantly rushed in front of Akado, separating "Fang Yi" and Akado with a knife.

While gesturing to Fang Yi to go out and find the spy for treatment, he challenged Chi Tong.

"My 'daughter', how does it feel to hold my knife?
"You were lucky enough to defeat me in the last battle, but you didn't dare to kill me. You are truly an unqualified killer.

"I specifically asked the [Minister's] connections to ask the Empire's new alchemist [Ma Han] to repair this [Minister's Tool].

"I want to use this [Subjugation Tool] you used to kill you with my own hands. Shall we go to the side and finish it?"

Gozizi secretly observed the situation and thought about the battle plan in his mind.

[We must lead Chi Tong away and ensure that Fang Yi, the irreplaceable person in the [Minister]'s plan, can leave calmly.]

Akame pulled out [Murasame] and replied with just one sentence.

"Enemy, annihilate.

"The winner of this battle will be me."

【Fang Yi's enemy, I will kill him.】

[Chelsey, disguised as Fang Yi, won't be able to fool Goziqi if he gets close. We can't let him get close enough to ruin Fang Yi's plan.]

Then the two of them fought while tacitly moving the battlefield away.
-
Disma looked at Daidas, who was emitting "power" and holding a big axe in front of him, and felt a little disappointed.

Under the influence of the opponent's weak but highly effective "momentum", his attributes were limited. While blocking the opponent's powerful blow with a dagger, he was thinking about how to defeat the opponent.

A few minutes ago, when Fang Yi told him that he could lend him "power", the robber, although not well educated and extremely easy to be deceived, still realized that the price of this skill would be borne by Fang Yi.

After Fang Yi admitted that his combat effectiveness would decrease after lending his abilities, the bandit immediately rejected this tempting offer, saying that he had a way to defeat the assigned enemies.

Disma's ideas are simple and plain.

"Fang Yi has helped me so much, so much that I can hardly repay him.

"Without mastering 'momentum', I cannot provide support to the strongest enemy. I can only become a flaw. How can I greedily ask for support from him?

"He said he could deal with the enemy named Zhu Tian, ​​so I will trust him and complete the task he assigned perfectly."

Because Fang Yi never asked, the robber never told him about the effect of his [Talent].

His talent [Eradication of Evil], which he had not revealed to others, had been faithfully providing him with panel attributes beyond task completion.

He also never used the additional attribute gains and temporary enhancement effects brought by these [Talents].

Because all along he was either asked to act with the 'hyenas', or was assigned to weaker [Imperial Weapon Users], or was responsible for controlling prisoners.

Now, Disma, who has never exerted his full combat power, feels that it is time to show a little more strength.

Although he had not yet mastered the "momentum", after several battles, Disma was surprised to find that the enemy's strength was as weak as that of the pirate named "Flame Heart".

With the help of "momentum", the opponent, facing a nearly blank slate like me, was only able to suppress me slightly and was unable to quickly defeat me.

He touched the scimitar-shaped [Imperial Weapon] [Wind Blade Sword] he had obtained last time, and then looked at the [Belwak] held by Daidas, and his disappointment grew even stronger.

[This [Imperial Weapon] doesn't look like something Fang Yi would like, but it should be of some value.]

[After killing the opponent, according to the judgment of talent, I may gain 'momentum' if I kill a few more villains in the next few days.]

The robber thought so, and then he was thinking about when to activate his talent and quickly kill the opponent.

What if the enemy has some hidden cards? It's better to use all your strength first, then test some of their extra attributes and see how they perform.

[This is what Fang Yi taught me. It's better to be cautious and steady in battle.]

Faced with Daidas, who was already out of breath and had revealed all his cards, the robbers decided to learn from Fang Yi's fine tradition and hide a hand first.

However, he did not realize that the enemy in front of him had actually tried his best.

Fang Yi's daily hiding of his secrets is based on the plot foresight that only he possesses and the pre-determined plan in his mind.

The two of them started fighting again in a somewhat strange way.

*
Daidas, who fought against Disma again, was even wondering about one thing.

[Why does the enemy before me seem to have become a little stronger? ]

He thought to himself as he released his "momentum" once again to force Disma back.

"Did this guy just use some banned drug that temporarily increases his strength?

"As long as I can hold out for this period of time, I can regain the upper hand."

Looking at Disma who was a little out of breath, Daidas felt that his judgment was correct.

[If we hold on for a few more minutes, we will surely be able to kill him.]

Three minutes later.

Daidas felt that he was reaching his limit, but looking at Disma who seemed to be getting weaker, Daidas felt that he had to hold on a little longer.

five minutes later.

Looking at Disma, who pretended to have disordered breathing and seemed to be exhausted, Daidas became excited.

He used up his last bit of strength to throw out [Belvak], ready to take the life of the enemy in the 'Weak' state.

After throwing his weapon, Daidas shouted excitedly, "I am the winner of this battle!"

What answered him was the upside-down world and Disma's somewhat bland voice imitating Fang Yi.

"Wrong, the winner of this battle is me."
-
It was not until Daidas' head fell to the ground, his heart was shot again by Disma's flintlock, and his body was cut into pieces by the [Wind Blade Sword] that he realized something.

[The enemy is much stronger than me, and he hasn't used his full strength yet.]

【But why did he do this? 】

Filled with doubts, Daidas's world fell into darkness.

Looking at the enemy whose head he easily chopped off, Disma muttered to himself.

“It turns out that not everyone has a trump card.

“It’s a shame to have wasted so much time on you.

"It seems that the assassin named Chi Tong is also finished. I should go help Fang Yi."

At this moment, there are still thirty-five minutes before the heavy rain falls.

Daidas, the [Imperial Weapon User] and warrior of power, was easily killed by Disma.
