"And although Leonai has an impulsive personality, she is not a fool. She can control her sense of proportion."
She and Tazmi are not on the empire's wanted list, so as long as they don't do anything wrong, they shouldn't be in any danger.
And if we just sit here all the time, we won't gain anything. Instead of keeping our spirits in a tense state, it's better to choose to relax at the right time."
Wood has said so, what else can Lubbock say? Indeed, he also understands the characters of Leonai and the others.
Everyone in Night Raid has their own very distinct personality traits. Under normal circumstances, only the BOSS can suppress everyone. If it were another person, even the extremely powerful Wood, it probably wouldn't be able to do it.
At the same time, on the Imperial Capital side, during the two days that Najiexitan returned to the Revolutionary Army Headquarters, Esdeath, the strongest general in the empire, had also returned to the Imperial Capital and went to the palace to meet with the young emperor.
Unlike General Bude's foolish loyalty, Esdeath actually doesn't care who becomes the emperor of the empire.
Even if she could see that the ministers were the real rulers of the empire and the little emperor was just a puppet, she was completely indifferent.
Esdeath's philosophy is that "only the strong can survive". Obviously the little emperor is not a strong man, so he can only be reduced to a plaything in the hands of the ministers.
She, Esdeath, was only loyal to the empire, not to a specific emperor in general, so she ignored the puppet-like little emperor.
As long as the minister doesn't risk his own life to cause trouble for her, Esdeath is too lazy to argue with a fat man. What she likes is fighting and fighting, not intrigues.
From this point of view, I have to say that the minister is quite discerning. Not only does he never go against Esdeath, he even responds to her requests.
"Suppressing the foreign tribes this time has been a hard work for you, Sir Esdeath. Apart from the Teigu users from various armies of the empire that you wanted to call before, do the Qing family have any other requirements?
No matter what the request is, it is okay. I will try my best to meet any request of the Qing family, just as a reward for the Qing family after returning from this great victory."
The person who spoke was the little emperor sitting on the throne, but what he said was instructed in advance by the minister who was standing next to the throne and pulling pieces of meat.
"In that case, I do have one wish, and that is to get married."
When he heard Esdeath's request, the little emperor's originally expressionless face was obviously even more stunned at this moment.
Because the request made by Esdeath was completely different from the script the minister had given him before, the little emperor was at a loss as to whether to agree to Esdeath's request.
According to what the minister said before, when Esdeath returns from a victory, the rewards given to the opponent should be as responsive as possible.
Regardless of whether the other party wants treasure, territory, or even control of the army, you must try your best to satisfy the other party.
The minister knew Esdeath very well. With the opponent's strength, if he was really greedy for power, the entire empire would have fallen into the opponent's hands long ago.
But Esdeath did not do that. She just wanted to fight and was not very interested in power and other aspects. This is why the minister was so tolerant of Esdeath.
On the one hand, Esdeath's combat power is too strong, and he has nothing to do with them. On the other hand, since Esdeath has no ambition, what if she is given military power?
Just reduced to a weapon in his hands?
It was also for this reason that the minister asked the young emperor to meet any of Esdeath's requirements today.
But now Esdeath's request to get married was obviously beyond the minister's original expectation.
Not only is it not treasure, but it is not territory or military power. This is different from what was promised before, so the little emperor looked to the minister as if asking for help.
In fact, even the most powerful and powerful minister in the city did not expect that the murderous Esdeath would actually make such a request. He was so surprised just now that he even dropped the meat in his hands to the ground.
.
But fortunately, the minister was thick-skinned enough, and he quickly adjusted himself, wiped his greasy mouth with his sleeve, and said casually: "Your Majesty, General Esdeath has made great contributions to the empire, and I think this is just a request."
, Your Majesty should be satisfied.
I suggest that you immediately issue an order to summon all the handsome men of the right age in the empire for General Esdeath to choose... All of them should be given to General Esdeath."
What men pursue in life is nothing more than money, power and women. Now it seems that even a woman as strong as Esdeath is not immune to this.
However, this made the minister feel relieved. Previously, Esdeath had no desires and desires, which made it difficult for the minister to take action.
But now that I know that Esdeath is good at this, it will be much easier in the future.
"I think you may have misunderstood, minister. What I want is a normal relationship and eventually marriage, not the so-called popularity."
Seeing Esdeath's displeased gaze, the minister did not expect that his flattery would be slapped directly on the horse's leg, so he quickly used his eyes to signal the little emperor to smooth things over.
"Don't be angry, General Esdeath, the minister also cares about the general.
Then can I ask, General Esdeath, what kind of marriage partner do you want?"
Hearing the little emperor's inquiry, Esdeath also withdrew his gaze, and then said with a look of longing on his face: "I have the following requirements for my marriage partner...
1. No matter what you compare, the most important thing is to pay attention to the possibilities of the future. I hope to train myself with the goal of becoming a general-level figure.
2. Have courage. Even if you are empty-handed, you can hunt dangerous species with me.
3. Like me, I grew up not in the imperial capital but in the border areas.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! 4. He is younger than me, because he is easily dominated by me.
5. It is best to be someone with a pure smile.”
Hearing Esdeath's five demands in succession, the little emperor and the minister were stunned again.
Because Esdeath's standards for choosing a mate are completely different from those of ordinary women.
That is to say, she does not require the other party to have money or status, nor does she require the other party to be good-looking, but she requires the other party to be courageous, have dreams, be younger than her, and be from the country!
Originally, the minister wanted to recommend his son, but Esdeath's several requests almost blocked all the nobles in the imperial capital.
"General Esdeath, I can understand the above four requirements, and if you search a lot, you should be able to find many such people in the imperial capital.
But your fifth requirement, ‘a person with a pure smile’…, what does this look like specifically?”
The little emperor was a little confused. There were many kinds of smiles, but he really didn't know what a so-called "pure smile" was, nor how to define it.
So he wanted to ask Esdeath whether the fifth requirement could be relaxed appropriately.
"No! Having a "pure smile" is the most important thing.
Since His Majesty cannot meet my request, how about giving me the right to search and screen in the imperial capital on my own?"
With the minister's nod, the young emperor gave Esdeath this right very simply, and issued an edict stating that as long as Esdeath liked anyone, as long as he was from his empire, he had no right to refuse.
"General Esdeath, the matter regarding the border has come to an end. Can we now talk about matters in the Imperial Capital?
I believe you also know the reason why His Majesty called you back to the Imperial Capital in such a hurry this time."
The night raids are becoming more and more rampant. A large number of nobles died on the dragon boat, which has begun to shake the foundation of the minister, so now he just wants to get rid of the hateful "night raids" as soon as possible!
"The assassination organization that killed the "Three Beast Warriors" under my command? It is said that the assassination organization was formed by Najiexitan.
Najesitan, a talented person with a fiery heart but the ability to fight calmly, plus the boy beside her, I am not surprised that they can defeat Leva and the others.
I asked Your Excellency, the Minister, to help me summon the Teigu envoys, did you, Your Excellency, do it for me?"
When talking about Najexitan, Esdeath thought of the young man holding a long knife before. He lowered his head and looked at the scar left on his collarbone. Esdeath also had a very expression on his face.
of fighting spirit.
"We will meet again soon, Wood!"
After resigning from the little emperor, Esdeath was taken to a room by the guards, and there were several people waiting in this room for a long time.
Among them were burly men, Lolita who kept eating snacks, handsome guys with elegant manners, young teenagers, and scientists who looked like madmen.
And these people here are the elite subordinates summoned from various armies of the empire by the minister to help Esdeath, and they are all Teigu users!
The black-haired girl who keeps eating snacks is named Black Hitomi. She is the younger sister of Chi Hitomi. She has almost the same appearance as Chi Hitomi. They both belong to the assassination agency of the empire. Their personality is more bloodthirsty than her sister Chi Hitomi.
But outside of the time of performing tasks, Black Eyes is a cute girl with nothing but cuteness. The Teigu she masters is called "March of the Dead - Eight Rooms".
Will, formerly a member of the Imperial Navy, is a young man with black hair. His personality is quite similar to Tazmi. He is also good at complaining and being cute, and he is also a country boy.
The Imperial Equipment he mastered is called "Shura's Incarnation: Noble Chariot". Like Wood's and Tazmi's Imperial Equipment, it is an armor-type Imperial Equipment.
Seryu Jubiquitas, a former member of the Imperial City Guard, has twisted ideas in his heart, but he believes in justice. He believes that as long as he is guilty of sin, he must die to apologize, even for petty theft or even coercion.
exception.
He looks harmless on the outside, but in fact he is very crazy. The ghost Oka is his master. It was Sailu who broke Hill's arm before.
The Imperial Equipment he masters is called "Warcraft Transformation: Hundred-Handed Giant" - a biological dog-shaped Imperial Equipment,
Lan, a handsome young man with short blond hair, has a calm personality and can clearly analyze the situation in a duel.
The Imperial Equipment "Ten Thousand Miles of Flying - Mostima" - the Imperial Equipment of Wings.
Dr. Fashion is a mad scientist in his middle age. He has an extremely narcissistic and arrogant character, but his observation skills are very keen.
The Teigu is the "God's Hand, the Perfect One" - it can trigger precise movements of fingers hundreds of times, making it easy to make various precision weapons, and can also be used to examine and treat human injuries.
Porus, a soldier wearing a strange mask, formerly served in the Incendiary Corps. He claimed to be shy. Although he was tall and tall, his behavior was completely different from his appearance. He was very careful and gentle.
The Teigu he possesses is called "Purgatory Summons Ruby Gund", and it can emit high-temperature flames.
The above six people are the Teigu user subordinates that the minister summoned from various armies of the empire to help Esdeath.
Because they were from various military units before, due to the nature of their work and their own personalities, although the six of them were in the same room, they had no communication.
As a guy who is good at stimulating atmosphere, Will was new to the Imperial City. He originally wanted to communicate with the two girls in the team, but he knew that neither Seliu nor Heitong paid any attention to him.
It wasn't until Esdeath appeared and suppressed everyone present with his powerful aura, and announced the formal establishment of the "Hunter", that the scattered sand was barely unified.
As for the other side, Wood, Tazmi, Leonai and Mayin, who rushed to the imperial capital, started to separate as soon as they returned to the imperial capital.
Leonai has been hanging out in the imperial capital all year round, has a lot of friends, and has his own intelligence channels, so he left early with Tazmi.
"Let's go, Ma Yin, I'll take you shopping. Haven't you always wanted to go shopping in the imperial capital? Today I will fulfill your wish."
After hearing what Wood said, Ma Yin was obviously stunned for a moment. Although she agreed to come out this time just to relax, Ma Yin never forgot that their main purpose was to collect intelligence.
But the suggestions made by Wood were so tempting. Her biggest hobby was shopping, and she had long been yearning for the food and clothes in the imperial capital.
"Huh, I'm just going to walk with you for a while. Our main task is to collect intelligence. Don't let me forget about the real work."
She obviously looks eager to try, but she still pretends to be reluctant. This is also one of the characteristics of a tsundere girl.
In a snack shop on a certain street in the empire, Ma Yin looked at the ridiculously exquisite snacks in front of her, carefully took a bite with a sterling silver spoon and put it into her mouth, and then her little face showed a happy look.
A few dozen minutes ago, Ma Yin thought that Wood was taking her shopping, eating and buying clothes, but only to the civilian areas of the imperial capital.
However, when Ma Yin was led by Wood into this luxuriously decorated dim sum restaurant, Ma Yin was immediately stunned.
Ma Yin is a homebody, but she likes to read some magazines. Although she rarely comes to the Imperial City, she also knows the famous luxury goods in the Imperial City.
The area that Wood just took her into is obviously the most luxurious shopping street in the imperial capital. Those who can spend money here are undoubtedly wealthy nobles.
Just like the small piece of cake in front of her, the unit price is estimated to be enough for civilians in the imperial capital to live for several months.
