Chapter 378 A Great Victory
Fight! Or run?
Sika hesitated, her former pride gone.
He admitted that he had underestimated the night raid.
Nine Imperial Arms users, that's quite a generous gesture!
Although there are quite a few Imperial Arms users within the Empire, gathering nine Imperial Arms users is not an easy task.
"I admit I underestimated you all. I lost this time, but I will definitely win next time!"
After saying that, Sika turned and left.
If he wants to leave, most people really can't stop him.
"It's a bit too late to leave now."
In the forest, Lubbock leaned against a large tree, a cold smile playing on his lips.
He hadn't forgotten the beating he'd received yesterday, so after the battle began, he slipped into the forest and set up a trap beforehand.
"So it was you!"
Sika stood still, because he knew that the forest must be full of threads now.
The Thread Imperial Arms is completely countered by this kind of environment.
"Aren't you fast? Run! I won't stop you!"
Lubbock readily stepped aside, seemingly hoping the other side would charge forward and die.
"I'm not fighting anymore, I surrender!"
The few remaining guards dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground, trembling.
They came with more than a hundred people, but now only eight are dead.
"what to do?"
Tatsumi stood in front of the guards, sword in hand, unable to bring himself to strike.
"Kill them all."
Najenda's cold words came, and Leone did not hesitate, reaching out to snap the throats of these people.
"They all surrendered, why kill them!"
Tazmi angrily rushed up to Najendan to protest.
"Shut up, Tatsumi!"
Brand stopped him and gave him a hard knock on the head.
"Big brother!"
Tatsumi looked up, his eyes filled with incomprehension and anger.
"I'll explain later; the battle isn't over yet."
Beneath the armored mask, Brand sighed softly. Tatsumi was still too naive; he was simply not suited to be an assassin.
"You think you can stop me?"
Sika glanced at Lubbock with disdain, and a gust of wind rose from beneath her feet.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Jessica took to the air.
"I will come back."
Looking down at the Night Raid base, Sika thought that this time it wasn't a complete loss. At least she got detailed information about Night Raid and learned about the Imperial Arms they used.
Sika, who had just left, took one last, unwilling look at the Night Raid base.
He quickly became uneasy because he saw a person walking on the treetops in the forest, following beneath his feet.
"Surprised? Unexpected?"
Hao Yun looked up and chuckled, then suddenly leaped up and swung his sickle at the enemy.
Sika quickly adjusted her posture and increased her flight altitude.
Hao Yun wasn't surprised at all when the sickle missed its target.
call out!
With a powerful flick, the sickle spun and flew towards Sika.
Sika caught the flying scythe, paused for a moment, then gave a cold smile.
You scared me! I thought you really had a way to kill me, but it turns out that's all you've got.
"Kill him!"
Lubbock's voice echoed through the forest, and countless threads flew out, forming a step beneath Hao Yun's feet.
Thanks!
Hao Yun stepped onto the stairs, his body rising higher once more.
Sika, who was standing still and about to mock Hao Yun, suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Buzz!
The sickle shook violently, and a blood-red ripple shot out from the blade.
Jessica realized something was wrong, but it was too late to let go.
With a scream, Sika's legs were severed by blood-red ripples.
Having lost his shoes, Shika fell from the sky using the Teigu Hurricane.
"My weapons aren't so easy to get your hands on."
Grabbing Sika by the collar, Hao Yun's lips curled into a smile as he stepped down the stairs Lubbock had built.
"I've given you the person; you can handle it as you see fit."
Back on the ground, Hao Yun casually tossed Sika in front of Lubbock.
Thank you.
Lubbock sneered and stepped on Sika's face, speaking in a deep voice.
"Weren't you so arrogant? Keep going!"
"Don't be so smug. Even if I die, you won't have it easy. General Esdeath will be back soon, and your good days are over!"
Sika revealed a sinister smile, and her eerie laughter echoed through the pitch-black forest, becoming particularly chilling.
"Enough with the nonsense!"
Lubbock flicked his wrist, and the silk threads wrapped Sika tightly, also tending to his wounds to prevent him from bleeding to death.
"I almost forgot something more important, Hao Yun! Hao Yun! Did you see where the Imperial Arms fell down?"
Sika's severed legs fell from the sky and landed in different locations.
Lubbock only found one leg; the other leg was missing somewhere.
"I didn't see it. Look for it yourself."
Hao Yun, heading towards the base, had no interest in accompanying Lubbock to find his broken leg.
Back at base, the rest of the squad was dealing with the body.
"Boss, are we going to have to move bases again?"
Leone looked at the blood-stained ground and the mountain of corpses, and had no desire to deal with it.
"Go pack your things, we're moving soon."
Najenda was in a real bind; she had just changed bases not long ago, and now she had to change again.
"These annoying guys have made me reorganize my closet again."
Mine returned to the base grumbling and began organizing her enormous wardrobe.
Since everyone was moving anyway, no one bothered to deal with the corpses or anything like that.
Instead of wasting time like this, you might as well pack your bags.
"Has the escaped Teigu user been caught?"
Upon seeing Hao Yun return, Najendan asked him a question.
"Yes, I caught him. I handed him over to Lubbock. Where did the others go?"
"I'm packing my luggage. You should go too; it's not safe here anymore."
"All right."
Hao Yun shrugged and went upstairs to start packing his luggage.
After quickly packing his clothes, Hao Yun began loading supplies onto the dangerous flying creature.
"Boss, where's Susanoo? You're leaving me to carry it all by myself?"
"He has other things to do. You can move first. The others will come down to help when they're done."
After Najendan finished speaking, she turned and left, quickly disappearing from sight.
"Depend on!"
With a low curse, Hao Yun tossed the box onto the back of the dangerous flying vehicle.
Brand and Tatsumi, who had the least luggage, quickly came down to help, and the three of them finished moving the supplies in just half an hour.
"I suspect these girls did it on purpose!"
Having just finished moving the supplies, Mine came out carrying large and small bags, followed by Akame and Hill.
Hao Yun snorted and sat on the back of the flying dangerous creature, waiting to depart.
