Inuyasha: My job stats have no limits.

However, his idea came to an abrupt end.

The moment Bai Lan touched the 'Cross Tail', the Imperial Arm seemed to come alive, moving along his arm, wrapping around it, and binding it, perfectly equipping Bai Lan's forearm almost in the blink of an eye.

?

Lubbock's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets: "How did you do that?!"

"Well..."

Bai Lan was captivated by the crisp mechanical sound of the system. No matter how many times she heard it, it was always so beautiful, even more intoxicating than CCB!

Chapter 77 How could the power of thunder be such an impure thing?

This is it, this is exactly what I wanted!

Although [Thousand Transformations - Cross Tail] is not the Imperial Arms I desire.

But for Bai Lan, becoming a [Teigu User] was enough, and all the time he had wasted was worthwhile.

When he opened his eyes again, the scenery around him had changed.

Lubbock, carrying Leone, has disappeared, and the battle between Akame and General Budo in mid-air has also come to an end.

The once sharp and fierce girl knelt amidst the ruins, Murasame bracing herself against the ground to keep from collapsing.

At this point, Akame had not experienced any intense battles, nor had she killed any of her comrades to gain Murasame's approval and thus unlock the powerful secret technique of En no Kakunobu, which could also be called "Poisonous Curse Possession." Therefore, her strength was far from reaching its peak.

General Budo wields an armored Imperial Arm, which is completely immune to the 'One-Hit Kill Murasame', so the idea of ​​a curse poison that could kill in one hit is utter nonsense.

It can be said that armor-type Imperial Arms are Akame's natural nemesis. Even when she was still in the Empire, she was defeated by an Imperial Arm called "Demon Possessed".

Therefore, when facing General Budo, one of the 'strongest', Akame was no match at all and was completely crushed like a punching bag.

"Accept your death, you rat!"

As General Bud's calm words fell, a bolt of lightning as thick as a bucket struck down, hurtling towards the swaying black figure in the ruins.

Before it could even touch Akame's figure, countless silver threads as thin as hair surged out and intertwined wildly above Akame, condensing into a dense, multi-layered mesh shield!

—The Shield in the Clouds!

boom!

The lightning collided with the silk threads with a deafening roar.

Blinding blue-white arcs of electricity spread wildly outwards along the gaps in the wire mesh, and the charred wires exploded into a sky full of ashes.

The shield in the clouds was shattered by the attack, but it also perfectly blocked the lightning.

"Lubbock?"

Akame knelt on the ground, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth with her fingertips, and subconsciously glanced behind her.

Lubbock is not here, nor is Leone.

Akame only saw the pervert who had previously launched a fierce attack on her chest.

However, when those crimson eyes fell upon the silver-white silk thread wrapped around Bai Lan's arm, they paused slightly.

"Consider helping you this time as a thank you gift for that guy's voluntary gift of the Imperial Arm." Bai Lan also saw Akame's eyes and said, "It's clear that guy values ​​his comrades quite a bit, that he doesn't even have any attachment to something like the Imperial Arm."

"Are Lubbock and Leone alright?"

"Giving them the Imperial Arms is enough, why kill them after all?"

Bai Lan countered with a question.

"..."

Akame's expression immediately turned blank. As a former assassin, she believed in eliminating all traces of the enemy.

Faced with Bai Lan's words, I really didn't know how to respond.

As the two were chatting, Bud looked down coldly at the silver-white figure below, like a god high in the clouds scrutinizing a tiny ant.

"Very well, I forgot about you, you little rat! Well then, you shall die along with the rats that raided the night!"

A blinding blue-white arc of electricity suddenly exploded on the dark gold gauntlet, crackling and popping. The once calm clouds overhead began to churn violently, with lightning flashing intermittently within them.

If someone familiar with Bud were here, they would immediately recognize that he was about to unleash the ultimate technique of the Imperial Arm 'Thunder God's Wrath'.

——The Thunder Emperor is here!

Seeing this, Bai Lan put away the Cross Tail. This Imperial Arm is more suited for reconnaissance and support than combat. If it were used as a combat tool, it might shatter in the next second.

So he has to do it himself.

Then, the demonic power began to roar, and golden lightning transformed into fine arcs of electricity, flashing among his silver-white hair that fluttered in the wind.

It's a pity there wasn't a single coin left, otherwise I could have cosplayed as Pao Ge.

"You actually control Thunder too?"

Bud spoke, somewhat surprised: "But you're not a Teigu user... wait, isn't the Teigu you possess the 'Cross Tail,' which you just stole from Night Raid?"

"How could the power of thunder be such an impure thing?"

Bai Lan said solemnly, "Bud, have you ever heard of the name 'Dog God'? It is said that as long as you sincerely pray to this 'Dog God', this omnipotent god will bestow blessings upon you!"

"And the thunder you yearn for is nothing but a toy in the hands of this god. So, come and convert to the Dog God Cult with me!"

"Absurd!" Bud shouted. "The Empire doesn't need any false gods; worshipping the Emperor is enough!"

"No matter how you obtained the power of thunder, once we capture you, the truth will be revealed!"

"It's something to look forward to."

Bai Lan simply replied calmly.

Just as the air became extremely still, and the crackling of electricity could be heard, a series of heavy footsteps suddenly came from the far end of the street.

Bai Lan and Bu De frowned and looked into the distance.

A group of Imperial soldiers clad in dark armor were seen jogging towards them, with a burly man at the front.

"Captain of the Imperial Capital Garrison, Oni no Ouka!"

Akame said softly upon seeing the newcomer.

This was their assassination target for the night raid, and also the person they used to test the new recruit's abilities...

Unfortunately, too many unforeseen events occurred along the way, causing the mission to fail before it even began.

"General Bude..."

And this demon Ouka, who could make countless minor nobles and commoners tremble, knelt on one knee after seeing Bud again.

He said sincerely.

"Fifteen minutes have passed since you left the palace. The minister asked me to convey to you that he hopes you can return to the palace as soon as possible to guard His Majesty... so as to prevent any unforeseen accidents from occurring during this time."

"Is this a threat?"

"No, the minister was just offering a well-intentioned reminder, a kind piece of advice."

Bud remained expressionless, but the lightning emanating from his gauntlet gradually weakened, and the lightning in the clouds vanished without a trace.

Ernest... he's really getting more and more outrageous...

It's time to consider their opinions. How can the Empire be run well when it's with the insects?

He then met Bai Lan's gaze, his eyes brimming with murderous intent.

"People of the border, let's postpone our battle for a while!"

"This won't take too long!"

After saying that, without waiting for a response, he turned and flew towards the palace.

'What a pity...' Bai Lan clicked his tongue. He had been coveting the Imperial Arms on General Budo for a long time... If he were to plunder it, he might be able to further evolve the lightning power within him.

He lowered his eyes slightly and glanced at the job panel.

The Raider's level is not high enough.

However, when the Raider successfully plundered the Cross Tail, it leveled up by one level.

You only need to level up two levels to get another chance to 'plunder'.

It won't take too long.

Pulling her thoughts back from their jumbled thoughts, Bai Lan looked at the demon Ouka in front of her and asked.

"Did the minister send you?"
