In July of the second year of the Demon King of the Wushuang Calendar, Da Jiqin, who was in the second position of the Yuanlu Zhijun, led an army of 180,000 troops, known as 300,000 heroes, and swung the army south to approach the Nanban. The scale of this battle can be said to be the largest after the destruction of the kingdoms, and in this state, the remnants of the Southern Barbarians of the Shu Kingdom, which only had more than 30,000 horses, sent a plea for help to the local rebels.

But in the face of this devastating blow from Yuanlu Zhijun, there were very few people who really replied that they could come to help, and seeing that the team that was not easy to form was about to be burned again, Zhao Yun, as the commander-in-chief, could be said to be anxious and restless.

In the Nanban camp, Zhao Yun in the main tent looked at the road map of Daji's army on the table, and the pain and sorrow on his face could be clearly felt even if he was far away.

At this time, a beautiful shadow broke into the tent, it was Huang Yueying, Zhuge Liang's wife who was rescued. I saw Huang Yueying saluting Zhao Yun, and then said with joy on her face: "The Southern Barbarian King Meng Shu has been persuaded that when Daji attacks, they will send troops to support, although there are only less than 20,000 men and horses, but it is also a tiger and wolf army, enough to fight." ”

Hearing the good news that Huang Yueying brought back, Zhao Yun's pretty face showed a hint of relief, being able to come to support in such a situation, even if he had the intention of holding together to resist Yuan Lu Zhi, but it was also sincere, compared to other guys who closed their doors as soon as they heard the news, it was much better.

"How's that guy in Sagasun City? Are you back? ”

Zhao Yun raised her head and looked at Huang Yueying, in order to seek support, she sent a large number of generals as lobbyists to various rebel armies to seek support, and Huang Yueying was a person who came back.

I saw Huang Yueying shaking her head, and looking at her appearance, she knew that there was still no news from Sun City. In the face of the combat power of Da Ji, which is several times that of his own side, and both the number of generals and the level of strategists are crushing level, even Zhao Yun, who has the name of a victorious general, feels that this kind of crisis has little chance of winning.

In the battle of the dragon ships, four people died in the tripartite forces. Shoot one fly, survive two. The target minister of this assassination survived "by luck", but the explanation to the outside world is a little vague, and the existence of Le Yuan was hidden by Liva, and Liva, who was seriously injured and returned from the entire dragon ship battle, was handed over to Estes.

"Is this the strength of the Night Raid? Just one Imperial Tool Envoy almost wiped out all of your three orcs, and it is indeed a prey worth hunting. ”

After listening to the whole debriefing. There was no sadness on Estes' face, as if his subordinates were dead and ordinary people were dead, just looking at the tombstones of Daidas and Niu.

Estes looked at Liva who was kneeling in front of him, his leather boots made a crisp sound on the ground, he walked in front of him step by step, pressed a hand on Liva's shoulder and said, "Daidas and Niou's grave has been chosen, you don't have to feel sorry for them." They will die, all because they are too weak, and you can survive because you are strong enough. Celebrate your strength. ”

"Master Estes, I'm ......," Liva stopped talking, just about to say something about this matter.

But I saw Estes's emotionless eyes facing Liva, and the cold air like a cold winter wax moon came to his face. And when Liva came back to his senses, Estes had already turned around and was about to leave, and her voice reached Liva's ears: "You rest for a while, and I will reestimate the strength of the two organizations, Night Raid and Night Scythe." It's enough for you to bring back the Imperial Implements of Daidas and Niou, though I don't know if it was the Night Raiders who took the bodies of the dead and their Imperial Tools. But I'll make them pay for killing my men! ”

Due to the casualties of Estes' subordinates, in order to replenish Estes's combat power. The minister of the imperial capital immediately summoned the imperial envoys known to the whole country, and finally received a total of six people who were summoned and notified, which was the imperial special garrison - hunters.

On the other side, in the secret base belonging to the Night Scythe, Chelsea looked at the [Devil Haunted] who was placed in the conference hall as an ornament and said in amazement: "Boss, this is the famous imperial tool. You actually brought it back, the night attack will hurt to death! This imperial tool is ranked very high among the 48 imperial tools. ”

"No matter how good the imperial tool is, someone must be able to use it, this guy rejects me, and your physical ability is not enough to wear it." Le Yuan glanced at the people present and sighed, he tried it the first time he got this imperial tool. Although it can't be called completely exclusive, it can't coexist with [Wind Boots] at all, and the load of the two is too great to use.

Looking at the group of Chelsea people who were squeaking and discussing the loot, Le Yuan suddenly noticed Sai Leu who was sitting in a daze in a position out of place, and slapped her on the shoulder with a palm, making Sai Leu stand up in shock and put on a fighting posture and said blankly: "Who?" Who attacked me? ”

"Seleuc, you're not in the right state, what's going on? How did you become so stunning? When Le Yuan asked, Sai Liu's head lowered even lower.

In the end, under everyone's questioning, Seleuc was embarrassed to say the reason.

"Master, the notice sent from the minister asks me to join a special security team as an envoy of the emperor, and my immediate boss is Estes. Everyone knows that our biggest opponent now is Estes, so I wonder if I want to refuse, I really didn't mean to hide it from everyone. ”

"Special Guards? Join in, Seleuc. "When Le Yuan heard this, how could he not understand that the super strong team composed of the emperor's envoy was about to be born, a team of men and horses that were stronger than the current night attack and night sickle alone.

"Huh? Are you serious? Master! Sai Leuc didn't expect Le Yuan to say that.

On the side, Chelsea raised her eyebrows and said, "Boss, do you want Chelsea to be an undercover agent?" It's impossible, with her character, it won't take much time for Estes to see the flaws of that master torturer, so isn't this sending her to death? ”

Always in charge of monitoring Estes's movements in the imperial capital, Chelsea was almost caught by Estes's beastly instincts several times, and with the record of his torture and torture skills in previous intelligence, Chelsea was one of the hundred people who were unwilling to send the Night Scythe to go undercover.

"yes, boss. Sister Seleuc is not suitable for undercover work, and it is almost the same to be replaced by a black-bellied little sister like Chelsea! Hiccup—" Leonay, who had just been drinking, couldn't help but get involved in this topic.

"I'm very interested in the team that Estes is about to be formed, and Seleuc is a very suitable person, as for the problems that will be exposed, I will leave it to me. By placing a small limit on your consciousness, you will never reveal who you really are, but you will not forget each of us, only the fact that you are a member of the Night Scythe. ”

For Sai Liu, who has not been outstanding, he gritted his teeth and decided to accept Le Yuan's stillness and went undercover among the hunters.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, almost a week has passed after all the hunters have gathered, and during this time, the imperial capital has been calm, although the assassinations continued, but no major battles broke out on the three sides.

"Boss, come and see this!"

Le Yuan, who was returning from hunting dangerous species, had just stepped into the store when she heard a voice from Leonay, and she was extremely excited with a notice in her hand and hurriedly came to Le Yuan's side and said, "Boss, how about we go to participate in this?" With our strength, we can win the first, second and third places, and that's no problem at all. ”

"What are you participating in?" Le Yuan took the notice from Leonai suspiciously, his eyes swept over it, and he said with a stunned expression on his face: "Citizen Martial Arts Conference? The organizers are...... Estes! ”

Just as Le Yuan was staring at this notice, Leonai on the side said, "What's wrong?" Isn't that possible? Our identity is an innocent 'citizen', oh, the night raider is not very good, I will probably regret it! ”

Leonai was very interested in this martial arts tournament, and winning money from his opponent was the best form of revenge for the night sickle, who had been forced to keep a low profile. And if you get such a large bonus, it will be tantamount to a windfall for Leonay, who has been short of money to drink.

"There is no limit to the number of applicants, as long as they are citizens of the Empire, they can participate; There are no restrictions on the battle, both with bare hands and with blades; Killing is forbidden in this martial arts tournament, and the killer will be disqualified from the competition, and the winner of the tournament may receive a special gift from General Estes in addition to the prize money. ”

"Little boss, will this be a fraud? Would someone like Estes hold such a martial arts tournament that doesn't kill people? Hill stopped reading and asked.

"It would be nice if Seleuc was here at this time. Just ask her about this undercover agent, and you can know if there is a so-called trap, and whether you want to participate in it or not? Leonay was reluctant to give up the bonus that was almost equal to nothing, and watched Le Yuan wait for him to make a decision.

"For this competition, you guys will be spectators. I'd like to take this opportunity to get a closer look at Estes, and this conference is likely to attract a lot of bad guys! When Le Yuan looked at this martial arts conference notice, he couldn't help but think of the other two players who were in the night attack, this notice was like a bait to attract wolves like traps, full of temptation.

C+-level side quest - Martial Arts Matchless

Description: In order to select a suitable candidate to inherit the Masterless Emperor's tool, Estes held this martial arts tournament

Requirements: Beat everyone else in the martial arts tournament to get the first place

When Le Yuan came into contact with the notice, he heard the prompt of the system, and Le Yuan, who had no chance to increase his stay time, naturally chose to accept the task. Although I don't know if the rewards of the other two people are the same as my own, it is definitely a task that can be triggered by everyone, and of course, only one person can get the reward in the end.
