Their commission was suspicious.

The power of the Herald of Knowledge is only suitable for use when dealing with enemies, and then completely destroying them.

Memory sealing and memory modification are like external avatars; they could become time bombs at any time.

If the people who attacked the bar find out about this and then go to the bar to complain, or if it becomes common knowledge, the trouble will be even greater.

Anyway, given the foreshadowing of the Fate Line ability, and the current situation, even if Chen Luo doesn't intervene, Tatsumi, Sayo, and Ieyasu will be included in the night raid. So why doesn't Chen Luo just sit on the sidelines and watch the show?

There are no perfect crimes, only undiscovered clues.

"Speaking of which, that girl named Sayo used an Elf Bow, right?" the Herrscher of Knowledge asked after the Night Raid members had all gone off to do their work and scattered.

"Yeah, so what?" Chen Luo replied casually.

"You're really willing to give her the tools you used when you first rose to power?"

"It's just a copy, and she gives a random reward."

I didn't want to either, but she gave me just too much.

"Lolo, why do you always seem so nonchalant? Tell me, are you getting impatient with me?" The Herald of Knowledge complained, seeing Chen Luo's nonchalant reply.

"...Who did you learn from?" Chen Luo shifted his gaze from the talent panel back to the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Danzhu taught him. But not me, he taught the old fogies." The Lawbringer of Knowledge decisively betrayed Danzhu.

“Teach Fu Hua? Dan Zhu? Forget it, Mercury Lamp, did you hear that? Never listen to anything that Dan Zhu says again.” Chen Luo said, rubbing Mercury Lamp’s little face as she sat on his shoulder.

"Yes, Father. Don't worry, Father, I will never be impatient with you." The clever Mercury Lamp not only learned by analogy, but also knew how to do the opposite.

“Emmm…” The Herrscher of Knowledge looked at the Mercury Lamp in surprise.

This little guy's got some skills.

"Oh, right, by the way, I wasn't being impatient with you just now. How could I be impatient with you? I just drew a rather special random reward." Chen Luo, who had instantly learned how to please the opposite sex from the clever Suigintou, said decisively.

Chen Luo was slightly moved, never expecting that one day he would be teaching Mercury Lamp how to coax people.

"At your age, you're still plagiarizing Suigintou's lines. Forget it, what did you just say? A random reward?"

"Yeah, when I saw that family photo of you guys standing under the Blood Moon, my talent panel suddenly notified me that I had successfully checked in and gained 20 Primogems. So I just casually drew a random reward. I have to say, standing under the moon while also standing on a line floating in the air is really cool." Chen Luo couldn't help but admire Lubbock's aesthetic sense.

Whether it's practical or not is another matter, but this way of making an entrance is really cool.

Speaking of which, it seems like Chen Luo hasn't triggered the traveler's scenery (CG) check-in mode in a long time.

I just successfully checked in. It must have been triggered from Tatsumi's perspective, right?

"What kind of random reward is it? Is it amazing?"

"Well, it's hard to say if it's really that powerful, but it certainly looks impressive." Chen Luo said as he pulled an umbrella out of his backpack.

A... oil-paper umbrella.

……

"Please, let me go... I still have... my daughter..." Arya's father, the somewhat chubby nobleman who always had a kind smile, was being lifted up by one hand by the neck, which made it difficult for him to even speak.

"Don't worry, you'll see each other again over there soon," Leone comforted him, one hand gripping the other's neck.

Your daughter will be coming to visit you soon.

“Even my daughter… Are you all so heartless?” The nobleman looked at Leone, who had cat ears, in disbelief.

“Compassion? Ha, you really have the nerve to say those two words.” Leone sneered.

At the same time, Leone forcefully snapped the nobleman's neck, and after he was completely motionless, he threw his body aside.

"Pattern"

"Huh? Is it raining?" Leone looked outside when she heard the sound of raindrops hitting the window.

"This is perfect weather for killing, but... lions don't like rainy days."

For Leone, whose hearing is extremely sensitive after using Beast King form, the sound of rain is considered noise.

This will seriously hinder Leone from chasing down enemies.

"Young Miss, come this way quickly!" In the mountains and forests, a bodyguard responsible for protecting Arya was grabbing Arya's hand and frantically fleeing in a certain direction.

The light drizzle dampened the path through the woods, but since the rain had only just begun, it wasn't slippery enough to make anyone fall. However, the feeling of the rain soaking her clothes annoyed Arya.

At this moment, only the lantern in Arya's hand could offer her warmth.

"What exactly happened?" Arya asked, gripping the lantern tightly in her hand, somewhat flustered.

"Please hide in that separate warehouse first; it's safe there." The guard didn't have time to explain further and, after leading Arya to a warehouse that looked very sturdy, prepared to leave.

"We've found you."

"Miss Arya, are you alright?"

At that moment, the voices of Tatsumi, Sayo, and Yeas came from not far away.

The guards and Arya were overjoyed to see the trio rushing over, panting and each holding their own weapon.

"Sayoo, Ieyasu, and Tatsumi? How did you wake up?" Arya, who had finally arrived at the warehouse entrance, stopped and asked the three of them in surprise, holding a lantern in her hand.

Based on the dosage of that sleeping pill, the three of them should still be asleep.

"You've come at the right time. We need to escape to the warehouse and wait for the garrison to come to our rescue. In the meantime, we'll have to ask you to hold off the enemy," the guard said to the three men in front of him without any politeness.

"Huh? We're here to hold them off? Isn't that a bit reckless?" Tatsumi exclaimed in surprise.

Seriously? I only had one meal at your house, and I haven't even stayed there yet, and you want me to pay with my life?

"Bang!" Before Tatsumi could finish speaking, a heavy thud was heard.

Akame, wielding Murasame, descended from the heights behind Tatsumi and the others.

"Since that's the case, then we have no choice but to go for it." Tatsumi said through gritted teeth after turning around and seeing Akame.

No one is sure whether these ruthless killers will kill themselves after killing Arya.

Tatsumi and Sayoieyas each drew their weapons and aimed them at Akame, who was not far away.

After hearing Tatsumi's words, Akame decisively charged towards him.

Just as the four were about to clash, Akame said, "Not the target."

After saying that, Akame leaped up and, while the three of them were wondering what she meant, she stepped on Tatsumi's head, jumped over him, and rushed towards Aria and the guards behind her.

"Damn it." Seeing Akame relentlessly pursuing him, the guard also drew his gun, ready to fight to the death.

"Target……"

Seeing the bullets hurtling towards her, Akame nimbly dodged them one by one, then got up and stepped forward.

"Buried!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of light appeared, and the guard was instantly decapitated.

Seeing this, Arya took a step back in fear and then slipped and sat down on the ground.

Akame slowly approached Arya, raising the knife in her hand expressionlessly.

"Buried!"

Chapter 871 The Most Vicious, Bizarre, and Mysterious Imperial Arms—The Soul Lamp

"Whoosh!" The sound of an arrow slicing through the air rang out.

Akame tilted his head and dodged the arrow.

But Akame felt that the arrow wasn't aimed at her head at all, but rather at her sword.

It's less about killing yourself and more about stopping yourself.

"Stop!" Tatsumi and Iyeas's voices rang out.

As the longsword and spear slashed past, Akame leaped back, dodging the attack.

“You are not the target… there is no need to kill you,” Akame said, looking at the three of them.

"But you were planning to kill this girl, weren't you?" Tatsumi asked, on high alert.

Ieyas held his spear horizontally in front of Arya, while Sayo provided longbow support from a distance.

"Mmm." Akame nodded obediently.

"You actually admitted it so obediently?"

"If you get in my way again, I'll chop you up," Akame threatened.

"Even so, we can't just run away like this. Since Miss Arya helped us, it's only natural that we repay her."

“That’s right,” Iyas echoed Tatsumi.

"I see. Then I have no choice but to destroy you all." Akame raised the sword in her hand.

She'll resort to violence at the slightest provocation—that's Akame's style.

Before becoming a member of Night Raid, the Revolutionary Army's assassination organization, Akame was one of the Empire's Seven Assassins.

Being decisive and efficient, and not letting personal feelings hinder the execution of tasks, is a basic quality.

Tatsumi and his two companions are quite strong. They have been trained by retired soldiers in the village since childhood, making them powerful and their teamwork is excellent.

Tatsumi faced Akame head-on, with Ieyasu using the advantage of his long spear to disrupt Akame's attack rhythm, while Sayo suddenly fired an arrow from the side to distract Akame.

However, Tatsumi, Ieyasu, and Sayo are no match for Akame in terms of direct strength, and even when the three of them are fighting one person, they still gradually fall into a disadvantageous position.

"Saya, can you still unleash that terrifying sword strike from before?" Tatsumi asked without turning his head while fighting Akame.

“No, that sword strike just now drained most of the Elf Bow’s wind element reserves. Although we can use stamina to replace it, we used up a lot of stamina on the way here, and we also need stamina to condense the arrows,” Sayo said.

The reason Liu Wenxuan gave Chen Luo the Elf Bow was because Chen Luo said he was a user of the Wind Elemental Eye. If one doesn't possess wind elemental power, using the Elf Bow would require expending a lot of stamina to condense arrows, or using wind elemental power.

After being converted to gold, the Elf Bow's quality improved, and while its consumption increased, it also gained an energy supply: the Elf Bow could accumulate the power of the wind to recharge.

You can slowly recharge over time, or you can quickly use the power of the wind to attack in a windy environment.

But the attack just now had exhausted all the wind power, and now it's just drizzling with no wind, which is putting Sayo in a difficult situation.

Finally, after less than 20 rounds of fighting, Tatsumi slipped and revealed an opening, and was stabbed in the heart and sent flying. Ieyasu rushed to check on Tatsumi's condition.

Although the guardian statue given to Tatsumi by the village chief, which was placed on his chest, saved his life, there was no one left to defend Aria.

Akame glanced at Tatsumi lying on the ground and Ieyasu supporting him, then instantly abandoned them and rushed towards Aria. But just as her raised sword was about to strike Aria, Sayo used her teleportation skill to block Aria from the side.

Akame still hadn't given up on killing her target. Since Sayo was trying to stop her, she might as well take her down with her.

Although it's normal for archers to have close-range abilities, Sayo has no weapons, only a bow, so she naturally can't block the sword.

"Sayon!" Tatsumi and Ieyasu exclaimed.

"boom!"

But the imagined scene of flying blood and gore did not occur.

Akame's sword didn't strike Sayo or Arya, nor did it hit Sayo's bow; instead, it struck a suddenly appearing door.

"Huh? What's going on?" Not only was Akame bewildered when she saw the door suddenly appear, but even Leone, who had rushed over but had been watching the show for a while, was surprised.

Because he was watching the play, Leone was able to see everything clearly; the door really did appear suddenly.

"Although I don't know why the bar door can't be opened, the door itself seems to be a super armor." Sayo breathed a sigh of relief.

The door disappeared the next moment.

Just as Akame was about to change direction and launch an attack, the door blocked her sword again.

After several attempts, Akame discovered that the once incredibly sharp Murasame could not leave even the slightest scratch on the door, which made her somewhat impatient.

"...Is this some kind of Imperial Arms?" Akame asked, taking two steps back and calling out to Leone, who was taking shelter from the rain under a tree.

"As far as I know, there's no Imperial Arm in this world that can summon a door. But this door looks really sturdy." Leone received the message.

“You were the busty girl back then…” Tatsumi noticed Leone, who had arrived nearby, because of Leone’s voice.

Enemies meeting are bound to be filled with hatred.

Tatsumi's first lesson in the capital was taught by Leone.

“That’s right, it’s me, beautiful sister.” Leone walked out from under the tree, stepped into the rain, and came to Akame’s side.
