"By the Storm Emperor, thank you for your help."

"I am an official of the Treasury. I have always been loyal to the Emperor and the Fist of the Empire. I never expected that these damned rebels would cause trouble. They have chilled the heart of the Fist of the Empire. He has sacrificed so much for the Empire..."

The official said this, and Li Wei thought to himself, "Perfect."

People in the Treasury should know how to get to McCain's residence.

He ran all the way from the central city to the inner city, but unexpectedly encountered the assassins of the Deathbird's Voice on the way. Enemies meeting again, their eyes were filled with hatred.

In Li Wei's eyes, the so-called top assassin was nothing special.

too weak!

"I need to find Minister McCain now to avoid being killed by the rebels. Do you want to come with me?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" The high-ranking official was now seriously injured, and grabbing Li Wei was like grasping at his last straw.

"Alright, let's go."

Soon, led by the official, Li Wei arrived at the compound of residences of the Minister of Finance and other officials, where he killed some rebels who wanted to attack him.

This earned Li Wei a deep trust from the official.

"Your Excellency, this way. I know a shortcut that will get you to Lord Mackay's residence the fastest, but Lord Mackay is probably taking refuge outside and may not be at the residence," the official said.

Having a guide made things much easier, and Li Wei soon arrived at Maca's mansion.

"Sir, I'll wait for you outside. Please go inside and look for me."

The official was clearly worried that the mansion had been taken over by the rebels and dared not go in.

However, without Li Wei's protection, he dared not go to his residence alone. The power structure of the Holy City was about to undergo a major reshuffle, and he had to go home to take out his savings accumulated over the years and run away. He would make plans after the political situation stabilized. As an official of the Ministry of Finance, he had no way to suppress the rebellion.

Li Wei was naturally unaware of this man's ulterior motives; he simply needed him to lead the way. He stretched out his hands and placed them on the high wall of the McCarthy mansion.

McCain’s mansion was very large, and with Levi’s current intermediate vibration perception, he could only sense a small part of the area.

"There are people inside, and it seems quite chaotic," Li Wei thought to himself.

"You wait here for me, I'll go find Lord Mackay."

Li Wei ran to the other side of the wall, used the grappling hook to climb onto the wall, and then gently fell down.

He was on high alert, with his intermediate vibration perception fully activated. No movement within a 20-meter radius could escape Li Wei's keen senses.

Li Wei wore the Deathbird mask so that even if he was discovered, the blame would fall on Deathbird, and the Imperial Fist would definitely hunt down Deathbird's people.

The McCarthy mansion is very large, occupying probably hundreds of acres of land in this prime inner city, and it is extremely luxurious.

Along the way, signs of fighting could be seen everywhere, indicating that the rebels had already arrived. Li Wei quickened his pace, fearing that the ambergris statue would be snatched away by the rebels first.

"According to the customs of the world's nobles, idols are most likely placed in churches and used for prayers every morning."

Inside McCain’s mansion was a private chapel. Levi went there first and saw a priest in a purple-blue robe lying on the ground, already dead.

Inside the church, the sounds of fighting could be heard.

After getting closer, Li Wei sensed that there were four people inside.

The spider senses didn't give any warning, and from Li Wei's perception, there weren't any powerful figures of the Great Knight level inside.

He acted decisively and went to the window. Sure enough, he saw two groups of people fighting inside. One group was probably a rebel leader fighting against the guardians of McCarthy's mansion.

"They are all knights, and even the weakest among them are mid-level knights."

Finally, in front of the church, Li Wei saw a giant oil painting depicting a turbulent sea with dark clouds looming overhead, its surface turbulent and swirling with purple-blue lightning—a scene of an apocalyptic storm.

Between heaven and earth, a towering figure stands on the sea, surrounded by storms and clouds. He wears a crown and has eight ancient war drums arranged in a circle behind him.

This is a portrait of the Storm Emperor, a deity worshipped by the Tuva Empire, who is said to have a poor relationship with the Heavenly Father.

There is a small statue of a deity placed on the shrine below.

It is a miniature version of the Storm Emperor statue.

Even from this distance, Li Wei could smell the refreshing scent of ambergris.

"That's right, that person didn't lie to me."

Without hesitation, Li Wei made his move.

The two groups of people who were locked in combat clearly did not expect someone to suddenly break in.

After the man entered, he immediately ran to the shrine, grabbed the ambergris statue, and started running.

They also noticed the death bird mask that Li Wei was wearing.

"Who are you? Stop!"

Both the rebels and the guards attacked Li Wei without prior agreement.

This is the most valuable thing in this church. They risked their lives to take it, and now it has been taken by a third party.

"Those who block my way shall die!" Li Wei roared, drawing his longsword!

Golden Cross Slash!

The life seeds within his body—the black snake, the siren, the giant bear, the giant rhinoceros, the wild bull, and others—roared simultaneously, unleashing terrifying power!

Click.

Like a demon king descending, Li Wei cleaved a mid-level knight in two, armor and all, with a single sword strike.

This terrified the three people present.

What kind of monster is this?

To kill a mid-level knight so easily and pierce through his armor, could this be a Grand Knight?

Did the Deathbird's Voice send two great knights over?

"Brothers of the Deathbird's Voice, what do you want? We hired you not to rob us," said the surviving rebel knight.

Li Wei didn't waste any words. He had already given these people a chance to live. He didn't want to waste too much time here, after all, this was the inner city, full of experts, and the Imperial Fist or other great knights could appear here at any time.

But these people didn't know what was good for them, so he had no choice but to kill them!

Li Wei gradually grew taller and more robust, no longer concealing his physique.

A surge of power swept in, and Li Wei began a one-sided massacre.

Among these people, there are mid-level knights and high-level knights.

In Li Wei's eyes, there was no difference.

"Die!" Taking advantage of the moment when Li Wei was fighting with the others, one of the guards jumped high into the air, over the two men, and slashed at Li Wei's face.

Li Wei held Frostmourne in his right hand, blocking the man's slash. His left hand quickly formed hand seals, and he chanted incantations before striking the man's face with a palm strike!

boom!

A torrent of blazing flames swept out!

The high temperature scorches the air, distorting the void.

The next moment, amidst endless agony, the man's head was charred by the intense heat of Li Wei's Flame Stream Seal. He was not completely dead yet, but the unbearable pain made him wish he were dead.

"Witchcraft? Who are you?" The others panicked and began to flee, but all of them eventually died under Livy's Frostmourne.

Suddenly, the spider sense returned, and Li Wei stared at the hairs that had suddenly stood on end.

Without bothering to loot the corpse, Li Wei fled the mansion without any hesitation.

A few minutes later, inside the McCarthy residence.

The Minister of War appeared here, and behind him, a figure like a raging beast came galloping from afar. It leaped across the rooftops, each landing stomping on a rooftop with a rumbling sound like an earthquake.

"Insects! All they do is run away?"
