The wind whistled in his ears, and the white clouds flew away from him.
"— — —!"
Accompanied by the clear cry of an eagle, a magnificent and huge city appeared in front of them.
At the same time, a deep voice sounded.
When others blindly pursue the truth, remember that everything is false.
When others are bound by morality or law, remember — all things are allowed.
We walk in the darkness and serve the light.
We are … assassins.
Boom!
Fangzheng slowly landed on the roof of one of the houses and gazed at the Imperial Capital under the night sky.
Under the moonlight, the city seemed so dark, prosperous, and full of a rotten smell.
Northern Empire … Even though I have no grudges with you, in order to help Ferut, yes … I think it's better for you to die early.
At the thought of this, Fangzheng lifted his head. In front of his eyes, the world immediately turned into a blurry space of black and white. Undead spirits and resentment, death and fear — everything emerged from within. Soon, Fangzheng locked onto one of the directions. He bent down and sped towards it.
Under the moonlight, White Robe flashed across the roof like the incarnation of a ghost. Soon, Fangzheng arrived in front of a secret warehouse in the noble district. The door of the warehouse was tightly shut. From inside, one could faintly hear screams and angry roars, as well as cruel laughter.
Two soldiers were standing guard outside the warehouse. They appeared to be bored to death, as if they did not notice that the shadow of death had already descended upon them.
In the next moment, Fangzheng jumped down.
He opened his hands and pressed them down on the necks of the two soldiers. At the same time, a cold blade suddenly appeared and pierced through their necks.
Under the hidden blade, all life is equal.
The two guards were dead the moment they fell to the ground. Fangzheng turned around and gently pushed open the door. Then, he flashed in. Soon after, he saw the scene in the room.
In the dark and cold warehouse, only the candlelight illuminated the darkness. A man dressed in noble attire was standing there with his hands behind his back, as if he was watching a play. Strictly speaking, there was indeed a drama happening before his eyes.
A play known as Les Miserables.
"Scream, scream for me!!!"
A golden-haired girl in luxurious clothes waved her long whip with all her might, whipping a young girl with long black hair who was hung up in front of her. That young girl gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound. On the other side, a young man was tied up, and a noblewoman was holding a notebook, staring at him with a smile, as if she was doing something.
Fangzheng could clearly see the resentment surrounding these people. Although on the surface, they looked like ordinary nobles, they were not ordinary nobles. However, the black and purple resentment that soared into the sky proved that these people were executioners with bloody hands.
Fangzheng slowly walked to the back of the noble man. He extended his hand and covered the man's mouth. Then, the hidden blade in Fangzheng's left hand pierced the man's heart from the back. The man's body suddenly stiffened, and then he slowly fell backward. As for Fangzheng, he supported his body and placed him on the ground. Then, he continued to stroll forward.
The mother-daughter pair didn't seem to notice Fangzheng's presence. The golden-haired girl was still engrossed in her work. The young man who was being tortured by her seemed to notice Fangzheng's presence. He widened his eyes and revealed a strange expression.
"Hmm? What's wrong? What's with that expression? "
Gazing at the young man's expression, the girl knitted her brows and turned around instinctively.
At the same time, Fangzheng's hidden blade had clamped on her neck and flashed by.
The golden-haired girl widened her eyes in astonishment. She widened her mouth, but soon, blood gushed out from her mouth. She clenched her fists in midair and fell to the ground weakly.
Fangzheng swept a glance at the young man who was tied up and walked forward again. This time, he arrived behind the golden-haired girl who was excitedly tormenting the black-haired girl. Perhaps because the whipping didn't have the desired effect, the girl threw away the whip in her hand and began to excitedly pick up a piece of soldering iron from the stove beside her.
"Let's see how long you can endure. Perhaps I should burn your damn hair …"
Fangzheng extended his hand and covered the girl's mouth. Then, the hidden blade in his left hand pierced forward once again.
"Ssss — — —"
The girl's azure eyes suddenly widened. Then, in the next moment, they completely lost their luster and turned into a pile of inorganic dead matter. Fangzheng bent down and gently placed the corpse in his arms on the ground. Then, he lifted his head and looked at the black-haired girl. Then, Fangzheng suddenly swung his hand and a throwing knife flew out, cutting the rope that tied the girl up. Then, the girl fell heavily to the ground and let out a muffled groan. When she lifted her head, a white cloak had quietly floated over and landed on her body.
"Shao!"
At the same time, the young man who was freed from the rope hurriedly ran over and helped the girl up.
"Are you alright?"
"I … I'm fine. How about you, Iyas?"
"Nothing serious. That woman wanted to force something disgusting down my throat. Fortunately, I didn't drink it."
Upon hearing her companion's answer, the girl named Shao revealed a smile. Then, she lifted her head and saw the figure in the white cloak was about to leave.
"T-That!"
Sayou hurriedly called out when she saw him.
"Thank you so much for saving us!"
Upon hearing Shao's answer, Fangzheng nodded to them.
"Come with me or leave this place. It's your choice."
After finishing his sentence, Fangzheng turned around and walked out of the warehouse. Iyas and Shao exchanged glances. Then, both of them stood up and followed the white figure out of this space filled with blood and death.
The strange death of the nobles had, of course, caused a huge commotion in the Imperial Capital. On the second day, many soldiers were on alert and searching for the murderer. Of course, it would be a miracle if they could find the murderer.
"I understand your situation now."
Fangzheng withdrew his gaze from the soldiers on the streets and turned around to look at the two young men behind him. Thereafter, he brought the two young men to a secluded hideout where Fangzheng learned about their background.
They were born in a poor village by the borders of the Empire. They hoped to become outstanding in the Imperial Capital so that their village would no longer suffer from hunger and poverty. But of course, they weren't familiar with the situation in the city. Therefore, after arriving at the city, they realized that they had nowhere to go.
While the two of them were at a loss of what to do, a noble girl named Aliya took them in. They thought that this young lady was a kind person, but they didn't expect that Aliya's family was actually a group of demons. They had been using such methods to deceive outsiders, lure them into their home, and humiliate and kill them for fun.
Shao and Iyas became their prey. But fortunately, they were rescued by Fangzheng in time.
"So what do you intend to do next? Are you going to leave this place and return to your village? "
Fangzheng stared at the two young men.
"This country is already rotten beyond redemption. It's completely hopeless. It's meaningless for you to stand out here. Everything here is a combination of filth and ugliness. If you want my personal advice, I think you should return to your village. Even though life might be tougher, at least you can still lead a peaceful life. "
As he said that, Fangzheng tossed a bag of coins over. This was what he had looted after killing the nobles yesterday.
"Thank you for your advice. But … No, we can't go back just like that …"
Iyas shook his head.
"So what are you going to do next?"
"We …"
Faced with Fangzheng's question, Sayou and Elias were rendered speechless. They didn't know what to say. After a few moments, Shao turned to Fangzheng.
"So, Sir, what are you doing here …?"
"Eliminating those greedy nobles and officials. You've seen it for yourself."
Fangzheng waved his hand. What he had to do this time was simple. Because the Northern Empire was a threat to Loganica, what Fang Zheng had to do was to prevent the Northern Empire from becoming a threat to Loganica.
And how was he going to do that?
It couldn't be simpler. He had to kill all the corrupt, evil nobles and officials from the bottom all the way to the Emperor. He would ensure that the country would be in turmoil and be completely finished. When that happened, the Northern Empire wouldn't be able to act rashly even if they wanted to do something to Lucania.
With Fangzheng's experience, it wouldn't be easy for such a huge country to get back on the right track. It might take a year or two to a decade to stabilize. Moreover, they had to pray that the surrounding countries that were eyeing covetously wouldn't lay their hands on them.
"Since you're unwilling to leave, why don't you join me?"
Speaking of this, Fangzheng finally got to the point.
Each soul stone had a unique ability, and so did the one he had. Through the "Declaration", Fangzheng learned that there was a special weapon called "Teigu" in the Northern Empire. In short, it was a very powerful magic equipment.
Only the right people could use it. But every Teigu holder had a very powerful power, and Esdeath was also one of them.
Because of this, the rebellion inside the Northern Empire was basically nothing, because most of the powerful Teigu and Teigu holders were on the side of the empire.
But Fangzheng was different. He didn't need Teigu. In fact, the soul stone he currently used could teach the characteristics of the profession of "assassin" to others and let them have the same ability. In short, the skill of Fangzheng's soul stone was somewhat similar to the mentor in the online game. Players could learn new skills after changing their profession from the mentor.
As long as they had these skills, even ordinary people like Shao and Iyeras could fight with Teigu holders.
So what Fangzheng had to do in this empire was very simple.
