With the ability to transform, I am a judge.

This is understandable, after all, Yang Li bypassed several small towns along the way and finally stopped here after flying for most of the day.

As one of the few large cities in the capital, the governor of this place is said to have been exiled from the capital. It seems to be very close to the border.

Wearing the fox mask again, Yang Li, petite and nimble, walked through the crowd. As 'Akami Homura', she was able to handle most problems.

After walking on the street for about thirty minutes, Yang Li had a lot of snacks in her hands. As for where the money came from?

Don't you know about the newbie monster called "Little Rascal"? It's a newbie monster that drops a small amount of experience and a little money.

Yang Li, having happily finished the braised chicken leg in her hand and placed the mask on the side of her head, had already narrowed her eyes slightly.

She really liked this chicken leg and would definitely go back to buy some more later; it tasted quite good.

"boom!!"

"Prefect! The Prefect has been assassinated!!"

Suddenly, a burst of fire erupted in the distance, instantly throwing the nearby streets into chaos. Yang Li, looking completely bewildered, calmly finished eating a cotton candy.

Yang Li threw away all the bags in his hands, then gripped the eight-panel belt hanging from his waist with his right hand, his lazy eyes narrowing...

That's the direction of the prefect's residence. It sounds obvious that the prefect has been attacked, and the entire prefect's residence is in chaos.

A large number of guards and soldiers were running around inside the governor's mansion. The attackers should still be inside the mansion, but the situation would be different if the attackers were Teigu users.

Teigu users are beings that ordinary people cannot resist, even the weakest Teigu users. Teigu often possess various special abilities.

Yang Li strode forward, then gradually disappeared into the darkness of the street, silently making his way towards the Prefect's residence.

Yang Li's intuition told her that she might have caught a big fish this time. It didn't matter who killed it or what happened; there was no time to lose...

Her petite figure flashed quickly through the street, the sharp glint of her blade gleaming with a cold, menacing light.

PS: 1. I should be able to update three times today.

2. The number of favorites has finally reached 2,000. It's really not easy. After all, it was listed too early and the growth rate of favorites has never been high.

3. I expect this book to be at least three million words long, considering it's already over 500,000 words and the protagonist is only at the second tier... This seems quite different from my initial estimate of one million words!

Chapter 228, Section 234: The Beautiful Girl Named Black Eyes

Chapter 228: The Beautiful Girl Named Black Eyes

The petite girl, who was only about 1.6 meters tall, was running quickly across the rooftops. Just now, she had assassinated the highest-ranking official in the area.

Now, this girl with short black hair, dressed entirely in black except for her tie, is ready to shake off all those chasing her.

The prefect's mansion was in complete disarray. Although some of the guards inside were skilled, they were still far inferior to her.

Only the captain of the guard was still in hot pursuit, but it was only a matter of time before he was outrun, since he was not a Teigu user and was far inferior to her in both stamina and speed.

She moved with the speed of the wind, her short, light black hair fluttering gently, her lovely face expressionless, even though she had just killed someone.

Having served in the Imperial Assassination Squad for so many years, she had killed countless people, regardless of their morality, and had long since become completely accustomed to the feeling of killing.

Not to mention that her personality is very plain; in short, she's a natural airhead. Although she has a yandere side, it's not something everyone gets to see.

Thinking about where to buy some snacks later, the girl's face almost fell as she considered her nearly empty snack reserves.

The next moment, the petite girl who had just jumped up changed her expression. A very familiar longsword appeared in front of her. There was clearly nothing there just now!

Unable to dodge in time, the girl immediately turned to the side with all her might, while simultaneously raising both arms in front of her to block the incoming sharp blade that pierced into her arm.

The splattered blood stained the long sword. The wounded black-haired girl stared blankly at the familiar long sword, then kicked it out with all her might.

Yang Li blocked the girl's kick with his knee, and as he began to fall, he used the leg he was using to brace against hers again.

His body jerked upwards, and his other knee struck the other man's abdomen. The two men, who had been suspended in mid-air for a moment, fell to the ground.

The short-haired girl with black hair, who hadn't been able to resist at all, fell heavily to the ground, and Yang Li easily snatched the long knife from her waist.

Through a surprise attack and the ability to stop time, Yang Li can be said to have won a great victory this time. She played with the two identical long swords in her hands, and the expression on her face gradually became strange.

At this moment, Yang Li felt that it was all fate. She had just beaten up her older sister and was now beating up her younger sister. Neither of the sisters had much luck.

"Imperial Armament [March of the Dead - Hachifusa]? You're Kurome from the Imperial Assassination Squad, right?"

Although she used a question, Yang Li's tone was absolutely certain, because of the black leather shoes, black socks, the rather tacky black sailor uniform, and the short, shoulder-length black hair and pupils...

The girl who is dressed entirely in black except for her tie seems to be the only one in the entire story.

In particular, the long sword in Yang Li's hand displayed a data subtitle that Yang Li had seen once before, which was exactly the same: "The March of the Dead - Eight Houses".

This Imperial Arm is one of only two long sword-type Imperial Arms in the entire story. It belongs to the younger sister of a pair of sisters and is known as the 'Cursed Imperial Arm' because of its ability to fool the dead.

【Xenfeld】Floating in mid-air, Yang Li checked her opponent's data as usual, a new hobby she had recently developed.

[Comparing the user's and the subject's mental attributes and soul strength... Comparison complete! The user's current mental attribute is 1.21 times that of the subject, and their soul strength is 1.70 times that of the subject! The user will obtain 100% of the subject's data!]

[Reconnaissance Data:]

Name: Black Eyes

Gender: Female

Type: Human

Health: 61%

Mana: 1017

Power: 32

Agility: 35

Physical condition: 32

Spirit: 27

Charisma: 30

Holding capacity:

1. Body Modification LV.17: After undergoing body modification by the Empire, HP +1000 points! Note: By overdrawing potential and physical strength, combat power is greatly enhanced, and the body becomes extremely resilient due to the effects of drugs. Unless the head is cut off or the heart is shattered, the person is virtually immortal!

2. Imperial Assassination Technique LV.9: Can slightly conceal one's aura, minimizing the possibility of being detected, making it easier to capture the enemy's vitals in battle!

3. Sword Master LV.1: Increases damage dealt by swords by 183%, and increases nerve reflex speed by 30.5%; grants immunity to most mental control abilities!

4. Killing Intent Stun LV.4: Having slaughtered countless lives, the killing intent alone can stun opponents, reducing their physical defense by 12 points!

5. Physical Exhaustion LV.10: Due to the drug development carried out by the Empire, his body has reached a critical point, and he has at most one year left to live!

6. Drug Poisoning LV.10: Requires frequent ingestion of specific drugs; otherwise, physical attributes will rapidly decline (all attributes except Charisma -10), and physical pain will occur, making it impossible to concentrate in combat!

……

At first glance, aside from its formidable attributes, it appears to have many flaws. This is the result of the Empire's over-exertion of its potential, leading to its current precarious state.

The side effects of the drug development have already penetrated her body. Unless she is given a new body, Hei Tong's fate will definitely be tragic.

With both arms pierced, her abdomen struck hard, and her Imperial Arms taken away, she should have given up normally. However, under Yang Li's gaze, Kurohime struggled to her feet.

Yang Li was not surprised by this. Although Hei Tong did not seem to have a high level of affection for the Empire, after being brainwashed and transformed by the Empire, it would be difficult for Hei Tong to give up the struggle before he died.

A pale fist dripping with blood slammed down, and in reality, Yang Li, in the form of the Akemi Homura card, was slightly shorter than Kurome.

Moving nimbly left and right, Yang Li observed Kurohime's clumsy close-combat skills and figured that this girl was probably like Akame, knowing nothing but a longsword.

Her slender thighs swung up, and her black leather shoes stopped beside Yang Li's face, because Hei Tong's ankles were tightly held in her hands.

To Yang Li's surprise, as soon as Hei Tong began to fight back, his physical condition began to decline rapidly.

Originally, Kurome might have been able to fight Akame to a standstill, but now she's about to be instantly killed; the difference in skill level is too great.

"Black eyes, black... your panties are showing."

The tense atmosphere was instantly shattered, and Hei Tong's face, which had been contorted by the pain in her body, showed obvious surprise.

The next moment, under Yang Li's sudden exertion, Hei Tong, who was pulled away, was knocked unconscious by a chop to the neck because her attributes had dropped drastically and she didn't have time to react.

Holding a girl as slender as herself in her arms, Yang Li silently changed the card; someone was already approaching.

As if the air was gradually distorting, Yang Li's eyes turned into a brilliant gold, and a faint black mist enveloped the two of them, covering them with the power of [Word of Power: Netherworld Illumination].

Section 235, Chapter 229: Depriving the Puppet

Chapter 229: Stripping the Puppet

Girls are very fragile. Even Hei Tong, who had undergone countless modifications and was already somewhat inhuman, was unconscious for several days due to the backlash from the drugs and the blows.

Of course, Yang Li believes that these so-called fragile girls have nothing to do with her, after all, her soul is still that of a pure, strong man.

Finally waking up from hunger, Kuro's eyes, which had just opened, were incredibly blurry as she stared blankly at Yang Li, who was studying the Imperial Arms of Hachifusa.

In her hands, the two identical Yafusa were completely unaffected by any rejection or resistance. Both Yafusa had fully accepted Yang Li, and she was perfectly capable of becoming the master of both Imperial Arms.

Perhaps the original author imposed two major restrictions on the Imperial Arms to prevent them from being misused, thus tightly binding the people of this world.

1. Because the Imperial Arms contain residual dangerous species consciousness, people whose wavelengths do not match the Imperial Arms cannot use them.

If used forcibly, either the Imperial Arm's ability cannot be utilized or it will harm the host. The user's first impression of the Imperial Arm is also extremely important, which greatly limits the number of people who can use Imperial Arms.

2. It is not possible to use two or more God tools at the same time.

The reason is that using one Imperial Arms already requires a great deal of physical strength and energy, and using multiple Imperial Arms at the same time would put even more strain on the user.

This prerequisite restricts the use of multiple Imperial Arms, but it is not an insurmountable problem for Yang Li.

Among the cards she possesses are Ikaros and a female version of Kaneki, both of whom are extremely powerful in terms of both endurance and recovery.

Perhaps if Yang Li uses just one of them, he can recover and keep up with the consumption, which would make it possible to use multiple Imperial Arms at the same time.

"Hmm? You're awake."

Seeing the bloodless black eyes open on the bed beside him, Yang Li, who was studying the Imperial Arms, slightly raised his eyes, then continued to immerse himself in the study of the Imperial Arms.
