Imperial capital, imperial palace.

"Is it really okay to let the rebel army gather outside the imperial capital smoothly?"

Bude looked at the Qingxing Lantern in front of him and asked in a deep voice, the recent situation in the empire is not optimistic, it is completely a sign of the country's demise, Bude, who has guarded the empire for generations, is a little unable to sit still, if it weren't for Qingxingdeng's efforts to stop it, he would have to lead the guards to meet the rebels.

"Don't worry." Qing Xing Deng looked at Bude with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she made a special trip to dissuade Bude today.

"The situation of the empire can only be established after it is broken, and for more than a year, the general who believes in the behavior of the concubine and others has also seen it, so why not trust us again in the end?"

Bud nodded, sighed and said: "It's true that you have helped the empire a lot, and I also care about it, after all, people keep talking about these things in their ears, and I am also a little hesitant." ”

Many officials of the conscience faction said to Bud that the empire was going to fall, and the empire was going to fall, and they all came to persuade Bude to bring the guards to stop the rebel army.

"The general doesn't need to pay attention to those people, if they really look far enough, how can they be suppressed by the minister." Qing Xing Deng shook his head and looked at Bude, "General, guard the palace, protect the little emperor, and leave the rest to Xiaolai." ”

After all, the task is to save the empire, and if something happens to the little emperor, it is very likely that it will affect the task evaluation, otherwise Qingxingdeng will not bother to take care of the little emperor.

"......" Bud closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes and looked at Qingxinglan with a sharp gaze, Qingxinglan still had a smile on his face.

"After today, I am not feeling well and refuse to see visitors."

Bud withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice, then turned to leave the courtyard.

"Hehe, this link is fine." Qing Xing Lantern chuckled.

However, Qing Xing Lantern did not leave, but sat in place and waited.

A moment later, Yingcao trotted into the yard.

"Sister Deng, the palace is arranged." With a smile on her face, Yingcao held a handful of emerald green seeds in her small hand and sprinkled them in the yard.

Qing Xing nodded with a smile, stood up and rubbed Yingcao's little head.

"The concubine's body is also arranged, let's go."

"Uh-huh!"

The two slowly walked out of the palace, out of the inner city, and then set up in the imperial capital.

"When will the master return? It's been almost a month now. ”

In a small alley, Yingcao squatted on the ground and buried a seed in the corner, while still muttering, "Sister Chitong who went out to cultivate, they have all rushed back, but the master has not come back yet." ”

The fair-skinned slender finger pointed at the wall of the alley, and Qing Xing Deng said with a smile: "It won't be long before most of the rebel armies have begun to converge and then come towards the imperial capital, and they can send a signal to the master in a while to let the master rush back." ”

"Really? That's great. Yingcao clapped her hands and stood up, looked at it with satisfaction, and then turned around and waved her small fist, "When the time comes, you must let the master know that I can also help!" ”

"Little grass spirit, you're still a little short now."

Qing Xing Deng withdrew his fingers, looked at Yingcao and said with a smile, "You need to work harder." ”

"As long as you don't eat jam...... Yingcao pouted, and then looked at Qingxing Lantern eagerly, "Sister Deng......"

"Don't even think about it."

Clapping his hands, Qing Xing Deng pulled Yingcao out of the alley, "If you can't do it well, you still have to eat jam." ”

"Ah......h

Yingcao sighed in frustration.

Night.

In the space below Akatsuki's station.

Brand, the Spearmen, the Red Eyes, Mayin, Ciel, Tazmi, Sayo, Iyeas, and Ran, almost everyone was together.

Under the torches lit around him, Qingxing Lantern placed a large map on the table.

Lan looked at the map curiously, and he recognized at a glance that it was a map of the imperial capital and the surrounding places, and there were more than a dozen red crosses marked on the map.

"General Qing Xing Deng, this is ......" Lan made a puzzled voice in his mouth, of course he knew what he was going to do here, Qing Xing Deng had told him about Xiao's work before, and now it seemed to be the work of assassination.

"This is the location of the Imperial Assassination Force under the control of the Minister...... Qing Xing said softly.

The red pupil shrank.

"Empire assassination troops?" Brand clasped his hands to his chest and frowned, "Are we targeting these people?" ”

"I just came back from cultivation, and I just wanted to test it!" Iyeas grinned.

Bang! With a fist smashed on Iyeas's head, Sayo clasped his hands on his chest and said dissatisfiedly: "Don't be so careless, the Imperial Assassination Force, the enemy who can be called this name is not comparable to those stupid dangerous species. ”

"The Imperial Assassination Force, the former base camp was in the space below the imperial capital, but it was destroyed by the concubine." "But the Imperial Assassination Force has branches in other parts of the Empire, and in a way, they are a group of killers throughout the Empire. ”

"Nishinomiya, who was in control of the Imperial Assassination Force, died at the hands of a concubine, and later the Minister took over the Imperial Assassination Force and recalled them from all over the Empire to the Imperial Capital."

Red Pupil looked at the cross-fork marks on the map, pursed her lips and asked, "Are these their strongholds in the imperial capital?" ”

"That's right." Qing Xing Lantern chuckled and nodded.

The information gathered during the time spent treating the black pupils, plus some of the information provided by Nishinomiya, can finally come in handy now.

"Tonight's goal is to completely destroy the Imperial Killer Force and cut off a force of the Chancellor." Qingxing Lantern lit up the map, "Everyone, memorize the map, and then let's go, destroy as much as you can, it's better to destroy it completely." ”

"Don't let one run away!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded, and the red pupil narrowed his eyes, the place where he and his sister were once cultivated was also the place where he and his sister had to be separated......

Holding the village rain on his waist, he put on Xiao's black clothes and hat, and put on a ring.

Su Yuan got a lot of these little equipment.

"Let's go."

Running out of the imperial capital along the tunnel, the red pupil recalled and chose a place to move quickly.

To quickly destroy the Imperial Assassination Force, everyone is acting alone.

Imperial Assassination Force...... Many of the people inside were Akatomi's former companions......

There are also many people who are the companions of Black Hitomi.

But the so-called Imperial Assassination Force, the Imperial Assassination Force created by the minister's minion Nishinomiya, is not for the Empire, not for the common people......

It's just to kill the people who are hindering the minister.

"The longevity of a country and the stability of a country have always been between light and darkness, and the so-called justice has always been a difference in position, for the sake of the country, light is justice, and darkness is justice."

Walking among the trees, stepping on the fallen leaves, the red pupil gently read what Su Yuan had said to her.

Once when he was assassinating troops in the Empire, Red Hitomi also received some tasks to erase some people who were obviously not guilty.

"I ...... I owe you peace. ”

The confused eyes regained firmness, and the hesitant steps were decisive again, dressed in black, and rushed to the target location with the red eyes of the hat.

But I'll only slash lives with my sword, so ...... I will give you peace with the sword.

"Is this it?"

Lan in the air looked at the mountains in the distance, and there was a hidden base built between the mountains, if it weren't for Lan Fei in the air, he wouldn't be able to see the base hidden between the trees and rocks.

"Is this intentional, General Qingxingdeng?"

Lan smiled bitterly, "Touching these dirty ......"

"General Qingxingdeng really has high hopes for me."

If you want to change a decaying country from the inside, it doesn't just mean that you just need to handle government affairs well, you also need a sharp blade that can cut off the rotten flesh.

Burning rotten things will give birth to new kindling.

After making up his mind, Lan suddenly looked up at the sky, and layers of dark clouds were piling up.

"Huh? Is this going to rain? ”

Rustle rustle......

The red pupils, who were running quickly in the forest, were stunned, and looked up at the sky, where the rain was beating on the leaves around them.

Lowering his head, the red pupil continued to move forward.

"Here."

Ahead of Huo Ran was cheerful, and there was a small deserted village in the middle of a rainy night, and the small village revealed a desolate atmosphere.

Reaching out and pressing the hat, the red pupil slowly walked into the small village, and the raindrops hit the hat with a crisp sound.

"Come out."

Directly took off the hat, and the next moment, the rain instantly wet the long black hair, the red pupils like rubies, with an indescribable look, and glanced at the seemingly uninhabited environment around him.

"I didn't expect it to be you, Red Hitomi."

A voice burst on, and then a man with white hair and a wrinkled face slowly walked out of the rubble on the side.

"Betrayer."

Red Pupil looked at the old man, frowned slightly, and then asked with a little hesitation, "Are you Kelly?" ”

"That's right, that's me." Kelly smiled and looked at the red pupils, "Is it so old that you almost can't recognize it?" But there's no way around it, because you have to complete the task. ”

Then Kelly waved his hand and said in a cold tone, "Come out and meet the betrayer." ”

"It's a red pupil."

"I thought it was the intruder, but I didn't expect it to be you!"

"Betrayer, I met you here."

……

Masks and assassination uniforms emerged from all over the deserted village and stood behind Kelly.

"There's not much more to say now." Kelly looked at the red pupils.

The red pupil was silent, nodded, stretched out his hand and pulled out the village rain on his waist, facing the person in front of him.

The rainwater piled up on the streets of the small village, making splashes.

"There's nothing really to say."

The atmosphere fell silent for a while, and the enemies who had once been companions were now on opposite paths......

"The betrayer, one of the members of the selection group." As he spoke, the wrinkles on Kelly's face trembled with anger, and finally Kelly waved his hand vigorously.

"Take your medicine!"

Without speaking, everyone took out a small pill and put it in their mouths, and then drew their weapons at the red pupil.

Reaching out to put a pill in his mouth, Kelly took out two short swords and held them in his hands.

It's just swords against each other.

The terrible rain was falling, witnessing the next moment of fighting.
