The incident of the internal affairs officer being kidnapped at the execution ground soon caused a sensation in the Imperial Capital. Everyone who heard about it was dumbfounded. Not to mention, the judge who announced the Emperor's order was also killed on the spot. This was simply a blatant disrespect to the Emperor!
In an instant, the entire Imperial Capital was mobilized. Whether it was the guards or the guards, they patrolled 24 hours a day. The entire Imperial Capital was completely sealed off. Anyone who came and went had to go through the strictest inspection. The Imperial Capital also implemented a curfew.
Initially, the high-ranking officials thought that under such a strict order, those bastards who dared to offend the Emperor's authority shouldn't appear anymore. But the reality was completely different from what they imagined. As the Imperial Capital's security level increased, the frequency of these 'grim reapers' actually increased as well!
A group of guards who were patrolling late at night didn't return on time. By the time they were found, they were already dead in the alley.
The guard captain in charge of patrolling the area ordered someone to prepare breakfast. As a result, when his subordinates returned with breakfast, they found the guard captain and two of his subordinates sitting in the office completely dead.
The adjutant of the guards was found dead in the toilet bowl.
The petty official in charge of inspecting the market was found hanging from the railing on the street.
The furious Imperial Capital soldiers would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let go of a single person. They even arrested and imprisoned the ordinary people in an attempt to use this method to threaten the ghosts who came and went without a trace. However, the people who did so were usually found dead on the street in less than two days.
Under such circumstances, the Imperial nobles were also infuriated. They even sealed off the entire city and ordered all troops to search and monitor every street! As a result, the Imperial Capital was even more tense than during the war preparations period.
But what they didn't expect was that on the same night they sent all of their troops to search the outer city of the Imperial Capital, the other party made a move in the noble district of the Imperial Capital and killed a high-ranking civil official.
This frightened the nobles. They hurriedly ordered all troops to return to the noble district in the inner city to protect themselves. As for the ordinary people in the outer city, the nobles obviously didn't care about them.
But when it concerned their own life and death, it was an entirely different matter.
As a result, most of the troops returned to the inner city and the patrolling level in the outer city was reduced to its original level.
No, it should be said that it was even lower than before.
Reality was not a game. There were no unlimited spawn of soldiers. Everyone only had one life. In the beginning, the garrison and the Imperial Guards were indeed furious, especially when the other party treated them as nothing and killed whoever they wanted. What made them even more aggrieved was that they didn't even know who their opponent was!
If it was a night attack, they could at least take a few portraits to find the culprit. But now, they didn't even know if the culprit was a man or a woman, human or ghost. They wanted to catch someone, but they didn't even know who they should catch. The feeling of punching the air was quite uncomfortable.
However, after the anger reached its peak, it turned into fear.
That's right, more and more people suspected that the Grim Reapers might really be the Grim Reapers. They were hiding in the darkness, mercilessly reaping the lives of others. As for why those people died, even if the general public didn't know, there were bound to be people who knew why. It was due to this that the morale of the soldiers became increasingly low, especially after the nobles withdrew most of their troops to the inner city in order to protect their own lives and left only the most basic armed forces in the outer city.
Under such circumstances, the patrolling soldiers were becoming more and more lazy. Many of them were simply doing their routine work and walking around casually. Their superiors couldn't do anything about it. After all, the law couldn't punish the masses. If they were to lock up all the soldiers for neglecting their duties, it would cause a mutiny immediately.
Moreover, once they did that, they might be the next ones to die.
After all, the idiots who vented their anger on their subordinates because they couldn't catch the Grim Reapers didn't live to see the next day when the sun rose.
This was also why most people believed that the Grim Reapers were the Grim Reapers. If not, it couldn't explain why they were so aware of the situation around them. It must be known that many people died under heavy guard, but those soldiers either didn't discover anything, or died together with them.
Besides, judging from their situation, they didn't even have the time to send out any information.
But not everyone gave up.
"Leader …"
The brown-haired young lady stood in the room and gazed at the empty desk. She gritted her teeth and turned toward the door. As soon as she opened the door, she saw a short-haired young man blocking her way.
"Miss Selu, where are you going?"
"I'm going to patrol."
Facing the young man's question, the young girl named Selliu gave an answer.
"Those villains will definitely be on the move again. Without the guards patrolling, they will be even more unscrupulous. I can take this opportunity to ambush them and capture them!"
After saying this, Selliu picked up the white puppy beside her and walked out. However, the young man hesitated for a moment and chased after her hurriedly.
"Miss Selu, I'll go with you!"
"Tatsumi?"
Selu stared blankly at the young man while Tatsumi stared at her.
"I still remember that when I first arrived in this city, I was cheated of all my money. It was you, Miss Selu, who helped me and recommended me to join the guards. Captain Oka also treated me well. I … I won't forget what happened that day! I want to avenge Captain Oka and kill those villains who wreaked havoc in the Imperial Capital! "
Tatsumi clenched his fists. He was infuriated as he witnessed the bustling Imperial Capital turn cold and desolate. He didn't know who exactly wreaked havoc in the Imperial Capital, but it was because of them that the Imperial Capital turned into this state. Besides, even Captain Oka died in their hands!
He would never let them off!
"You might die?"
Selu stared at Tatsumi and said softly. Tatsumi smiled.
"I won't die that easily."
"Good. Follow me then, Tatsumi."
Selu revealed a smile after hearing Tatsumi's answer.
"Let's use absolute justice to destroy those villains!"
Night fell.
It was already late at night, and on the cold streets of the Imperial Capital, two figures were running along the street.
"Ah, it's all because of those Grim Reapers. It's so difficult for us to carry out our mission."
Mine complained in a low voice as she sprinted. Upon hearing her complaint, the bespectacled young lady who wore a cheongsam, purple long hair, and a pair of glasses beside Mine smiled slightly.
"But the mission is better than anything else."
The purple-haired girl was also a member of the night raid. Her name was Hill. Like Mine, she was also a holder of Teigu. This assassination was completed by her and Mine.
"Yeah, now those guys from the guards don't dare to show up … so … huh?"
However, before Mine finished her words, she seemed to notice something, and hurriedly raised her head and looked back. At the same time, a figure suddenly flew out from the forest and rushed towards the two of them!
"There's an enemy!"
Mine hurriedly turned over and dodged backward, and the purple-haired girl also grabbed her scissors and dodged to the other side. Almost at the same time as the two dodged, the figure had hit the ground heavily like a cannonball.
"What's wrong with this guy?"
Mine stared at the figure who slowly stood up in front of her with a dignified expression.
"I can't feel her presence at all."
Hill also slowly raised the scissors in her hand and looked forward. At this moment, the smoke dispersed and they could see a brown-haired girl and a puppy standing in the middle of the street.
"It seems that she's not on the same level as those guards who completely exposed their presence."
"…"
The brown-haired girl didn't care about their conversation. She just silently picked up the wanted poster in her hand and glanced at it.
"Sure enough, her appearance is the same as on the wanted poster. She's determined to be Hill from the night raid. From the Teigu she holds, the woman in the same group also belongs to the night raid … "
Saying until here, the girl opened her mouth and revealed a sinister smile.
"We finally meet, night raid!!! In the name of absolute justice, we're here to punish evil! Go to hell! You evil thieves!!! "
"Boom — — —!"
There was an explosion.
"Huh?"
Standing at the top of the tower, Fangzheng turned his head and looked at the direction of the explosion.
Over there … there shouldn't be any assassination plans today, right?
Thinking until here, Fangzheng narrowed his eyes. At the next moment, the scenery in front of him instantly zoomed in like a telescope. Then, Fangzheng saw the battle that was breaking out in the deserted square.
"That's … three people and a … dog?"
Fangzheng clearly saw that one of the girls with pink pigtails was holding a huge gun-like thing in her hand and was fighting with a dog that seemed to be inflated. She fired countless bullets at the dog, penetrating its body and even blasting it away with light beams. But soon, the big white dog returned to its original form and continued to attack.
On the other side, a girl with long purple hair and wearing a cheongsam held a pair of scissors that was about the same size as her and fought with a girl wearing a guard armor.
"That's … the one from the night raid, right?"
Fangzheng took out a wanted poster and took a look. By the way, the style of this country was so messy that it made Fangzheng speechless. Unlike the pure fantasy, western, or Chinese styles, this country's style was completely a hodgepodge. In this country, Fangzheng saw people wearing kimonos, suits, cheongsams, armor, sailor suits, and Gothic lolis … What kind of cultural fusion is this?
What the hell is with all the ancient and modern cultures?
Forget it, these are all small matters. Don't worry about it.
"Iyeas."
Fangzheng lowered his head and looked to his side.
"Yes, Teacher."
"The night raid and the guards seem to be fighting. Let's go check out the situation and clean up the mess."
"Yes."
After saying that, Fangzheng stood up and walked to the edge of the tower. Then, he opened his arms. At this moment, a pitch-black falcon descended from the sky and circled the entire tower.
"— — —!"
With an eagle's cry, Fangzheng leaped down from the tower and disappeared into the darkness.
