Chapter 408 Wood: Do you want to come and discuss it?
"So what if General Esdeath is coming back! How many days are the so-called days? Five days? Or ten days?
The minister is just perfunctory with us. Now the night attack has completely gone crazy. Who knows if I will die in my own mansion tonight.
He himself is at ease, hiding in the palace all day long, and the women playing tricks on the old emperor are protected by the guards just like the young emperor, so they naturally don't need to worry about night raids coming to the palace to assassinate him."
The person who spoke was the unlucky guy whose head had just been pressed on the table by the minister. This guy was lucky. Although the minister was a giant man, his combat power was obviously not high.
Although his head was cut open and his head was bleeding, luckily he did not die on the spot.
After being hit by the minister like this, this guy finally came to his senses. After leaving such words, he covered his bleeding head and left the palace, leaving the others looking at each other in shock.
Everyone knows the truth, but what can they do? Originally, they were interested in the ministers holding great power, so they joined the other faction.
And during this period of time, they have indeed followed the minister to enjoy the hot and spicy food. Now if they are asked to betray the minister, they do not have the courage.
The only thing they can pray for now is that the "night attack" will not attack them first, and that Esdeath can return to the imperial capital as soon as possible.
"You're saying that Esdeath guy is going to return to the Imperial Capital in the near future?"
In the stronghold of the night attack, Najiexitan, who had gathered everyone, directly broke the heavy news to the people in front of her.
"Well, the news should be correct. It was a key member of the minister's faction who informed me of the news through some channel."
Najexitan held the cigarette in her hand and took a puff, her expression became slightly solemn. She knew better than anyone else what it meant for Esdeath to return to the imperial capital.
"A person from the minister's faction? Can what such a guy says be trusted?
And is Esdeath really as strong as the rumors say? No matter how strong she is, there is only one person..."
"Don't underestimate Esdeath, she is far more powerful than you imagine.
Moreover, it is meaningless to her to compare based on the number of people alone. She once relied on her own power to instantly kill more than 10,000 foreign elite troops in the southwest."
Before Ma Yin finished speaking, she was interrupted by Najiexitan.
Except for Wood and a few people in Lubbock, no one else in the night attack had seen Esdeath take action.
Even Chitong and Brand, who once served in the empire, had only heard of Esdeath's power, but had never seen it with their own eyes.
"With his own power, he instantly killed ten thousand alien troops in the southwest... Is that guy still a human?"
Mayin is also one of the ethnic minorities on the border, but they are a weak and bullied tribe. As for the southwest border that Najiexitan mentioned, the foreign people there are fierce and powerful, so they attack the empire all year round.
the border of
But such a powerful alien race can actually kill more than 10,000 troops in an instant! This is no longer just described as strong, but a real monster level!
"The source of the information should not be wrong. The minister faction who disclosed the information voluntarily donated most of his family property and became an internal agent of the revolutionary army. Now he just hopes to survive and not to become one of the assassination targets.
.”
For those nobles who regard wealth as their life, if they are willing to donate tens of millions of wealth, it means that the pot is really broken.
And taking the initiative to disclose such important information to "Night Raid", it is estimated that the minister will not be able to tolerate the other party, and now there is absolutely no way back.
"We can't have exact information on the specific day Esdeath will come back, but in the near future, we'd better choose to hibernate and not go to the imperial capital for the time being.
With Esdeath's character, she won't stay in the imperial capital for long. We will continue our action after she leaves."
It's not that Najesitan is too cowardly, but that the shadow Esdeath left on her was too great.
To put it bluntly, if you go out to perform missions in two-by-two groups at night, if you encounter Esdeath, except for Wood, it will be difficult for anyone else to come back alive.
Chi Tong's Teigu is very strong, but it is the final trump card, and even if Chi Tong uses the trump card, he may not be Esdeath's opponent.
The time is not yet ripe, and Najiexitan doesn't want to fight with Esdeath just yet.
After Najexita dismissed everyone, everyone in the night attack did not just leave, but started chatting.
Among them, the one who talked about the most was naturally Esdeath, who even Najexitan was very afraid of.
"Brother Brand, is that general named Esdeath really as strong as the boss says?"
It has been a month since Tazmi joined Night Raid. Now he is much more mature than before, and his strength is increasing at a daily rate.
First he killed the minister's cousin, and then he killed the murderer Zank who had the imperial weapon "Five Sights", so the cute boy has been a little bloated recently.
In his opinion, the so-called Esdeath, no matter how powerful he is, is just a Teigu user, and when they attacked here at night, except for himself, the others were all Isui Teigu users.
The strength of Brother Brand and Wood is obvious to all, and Chi Tong is also incredibly strong. With a lineup like theirs, is it really necessary to be afraid of an imperial general?
In fact, people who have similar thoughts about this are not just Tazmi. Even the bellicose Leonai punches with his right hand and his left palm, looking like he wants to compete with Esdeath.
"Boss is not lying. Esdeath is really strong. When we were just sentenced to escape from the empire, she was the one who came to hunt us down.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When the BOSS and I faced each other, we were almost powerless to fight back. In the end, Wood stayed behind and reared, and we were able to escape.
After that battle, Wood, who survived and returned, was unconscious for nearly a day and night due to physical exhaustion. Anyway, for a guy of Tazmi's level, Esdeath would not be able to fight against a hundred or so people.
It’s too big a problem.”
Lubbock, who had been leaning against the wall, suddenly spoke at this moment, and hoped that his companions would not do some foolish behavior and take the initiative to find Esdeath to kill him.
"It's equivalent to a hundred or so me..." Tazmi pointed at herself, never expecting that one day she would be reduced to a unit of measurement of combat power.
"Since you are all so curious about Esdeath's strength, and you have nothing to do now, why not let's discuss it.
Speaking of which, we have been companions for so long, but we haven’t really competed with each other yet, right?”
Seeing the expressions of Tazmi and Leonai, especially Leonai, Wood knew that no matter how much Najexita and Lubbock said, Leonai, who was very strong at heart, was still somewhat dissatisfied.
In order to prevent Leonai from becoming too competitive, she would challenge Esdeath alone in the future, and Wood and the others would collect her body in the end, so Wood thought that his companions should clearly understand what the difference in strength was.
"That's a good suggestion. I've been wanting to compete with you for a long time!"
"Let me get involved too, just think of it as today's intensive training!"
As soon as Wood finished speaking, Leonai and Brand nodded in agreement without hesitation, and judging from their gearing up movements, it was obvious that they had been looking forward to this moment for more than a day or two.
Everyone in "Night Raid" knows that Wood is very powerful, but Wood is also very low-key. Even among his companions, they rarely see Wood take action.
In addition, the target of their assassination has never been a particularly powerful character, so Brand and others are still at the stage of hearing about Wood's power.
He wanted to spar with Wood, but this guy would always run away for various reasons. In addition, his companions were not very serious about each other, so competitive people like Leonai and Brand kept suppressing their fighting spirit.
Now that Wood has taken the initiative to propose the idea of discussing, Leonai and Brand will naturally not refuse. Not only will they not refuse, they also feel quite excited.
"Is this really good? If we are both Teigu users, if there is a fight, one of them will die, right?"
Seeing Leonai and Brand who were full of fighting spirit, Tazmi couldn't help but think of the iron law of the Teigu that he had told him about the God's Gear Zanke before, and what his companions had told him.
"If it's just a normal sparring, it'll be fine if you don't have murderous intentions." Chi Tong beside Tazmi said, and he also took a step forward, obviously preparing to participate in this sparring.
among.
Ma Yin and Hill were not very interested at first, but seeing that Chi Tong and Leonai were both involved, and they also wanted to use Wood to know about Esdeath, who was so afraid of Najexitan.
, how strong is the strength.
As for Lubbock, he still leaned against the wall and said, "Forget what I said. I am quite aware of Esdeath's strength, so there is no need for further confirmation."
Lubbock spread his hands and said that he would not participate in the discussion. On the one hand, he knew Esdeath's strength clearly, and on the other hand, he did not want to be tortured by Wood.
Others had only a partial understanding of Wood's strength, but as Wood's childhood friend, Lubbock clearly understood what kind of monster the other party was.
The injuries he received from being beaten by Leonai for peeping a few days ago are now healed. He doesn't want to lose his glory due to sparring again.
"Brand, do you want to go first, or let me do it?"
Looking at Brand, who also had a fighting spirit on his face, Leonai asked directly. There were not many opportunities for Wood to take action. Although Leonai was anxious for Wood to fight, he felt that Brand should test Wood's strength first.
Not bad.
"Don't bother me, it'll be fine if you both come together.
Of course, if you use the Teigu, in order to avoid being beaten to death, I will also use the Teigu."
After hearing what Wood said, the Night Raid members present all showed displeasure.
It is undeniable that they admit that Wood is very strong, but it would be a bit too arrogant for one person to challenge them all.
"Wood, are you kidding me..."
Before the grumpy Leonai finished speaking, Wood in front of her suddenly disappeared from her sight. When her beast-like intuition sensed danger again, Wood's figure appeared without warning.
He got behind her, and the moment she turned around, a straight punch hit her in the face!
Seeing the fist coming towards him with the sound of breaking through the air, Leonai only had time to react, and he could only cross his hands in front of him to protect him.
"boom------!"
The moment Wood's fist hit Leonai's arms, a huge wave of air swept all around instantly. However, although Wood's attack was resisted in a hurry, Leonai could not be regarded as completely blocking it, because the next second
His body was like a cannonball, flying backwards at high speed and smashing through the wall on the side.
"Do you understand now? I let you go together, not because I am arrogant, but because of my own strength. If you choose to fight alone, you will probably not be able to survive a few rounds in my hands before the battle will be over."
Seeing Leonai being knocked away by a punch, everyone present at Night Raid was stunned. Excluding Brand and Chitong, Leonai should be the best at close combat among everyone present.
But just like this, Leonai was suppressed by Wood in an instant, and was even knocked away with a punch.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! To put it bluntly, if Wood had not attacked Leonai just now, but had attacked Hill, Ma'in, or even Tazmi,
, they are probably unable to fight now.
After all, not everyone can have beastly intuition and reflexes like Leonai.
Almost within a few breaths of Leonai being knocked away, a figure present quickly approached Wood, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and struck Wood down with all his strength.
"Ding------!"
The swords collided with each other in the air, not only making a clear sound of metal clashing, but also splashing out a lot of jumping sparks.
"It's okay to use weapons. After all, I'm better at using weapons than fighting with bare hands."
Brand was holding the still unexpanded Teigu "The Haunting" with both hands at the moment, colliding with the Teigu "Winter Knight" held by Wood with one hand in a stalemate in the air, and looked at Wood's face with a look of fighting intent.
said, bowed
"No need to worry about anything, I'm better at using a sword than fighting with bare hands.
Speaking of which, our Teigu are of the same type, and if I remember correctly, Brand, the weapon you are best at using is not a sword, but a spear, right?"
"Haunted by evil spirits and operating armor" is the Teigu owned by Brand. Like Wood's Teigu, Brand's Teigu is also an armor-type Teigu.
The armor-type Teigu made from the ferocious dragon-shaped dangerous species "Thailand" has a defensive power as strong as an iron wall, but it places a great burden on the wearer. Ordinary people will die if they wear it.
Only a strong body can withstand the side effects of this imperial weapon.
