Inuyasha: My job stats have no limits.

boom--

A silent roar echoed in my ears.

As Mine spoke, she felt as if she were in a steel furnace, with a fiery and golden aura rising before her eyes.

It felt like a burning blade was pressed against his forehead, and his body instantly stiffened.

"careful!"

Hill's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

She grabbed Mine and, using the momentum of her sidestep, rolled into the corridor, her soft body pressing Mine beneath her, almost suffocating her in Hill's arms.

Almost simultaneously, a golden sword aura struck, slicing through the wall and door frame where the two had just stood, leaving a smooth, clean cut.

"They attacked while talking to themselves, and chatted amongst themselves."

Bai Lan stepped out of the hole in the wall, leaving behind a series of bloody footprints in the corridor.

"...What did I do to deserve such disrespect? You treat me like a dead fish on a chopping board, a night raid?"

The boy speaking from a short distance away spoke calmly, but even a fool could sense the surging anger within him, like magma beneath a volcano.

Just waiting for the right moment, the erupting volcano will burst forth and break through the sky.

...This was actually an act.

Bai Lan's emotions were not affected by this small action; she just wanted to test the strength of the main characters.

Especially Mine...

"Hey, this isn't good..."

Sensing that aura, Mine struggled to peek out from under Hill, cold sweat trickling down her forehead.

“Hill, we might have encountered the real monster in this attack... Even Brand doesn’t possess this kind of aura.”

Should we retreat?

Upon hearing Hill's disheartened words, Mine immediately perked up: "Who wants to retreat? I'm a shooting genius! With Pumpkin and me here, I can defeat any opponent!"

——【Romantic Turret Pumpkin】, a gun-shaped Imperial Arm that does not require ammunition and fires using mental power. The greater the crisis faced by the user, the greater the power it unleashes. In addition, its energy is also related to the user's emotional fluctuations.

This Imperial Arm is the standard protagonist template, its greatest strength being overcoming the strong with the weak!

In the original story, 'Pumpkin' was unleashed at full power, even blasting General Bud to death head-on!

Although Bai Lan once suspected that there was something fishy going on, and that General Bude might be fixing the match.

"Hill, let's go!"

"it is good!"

Hill didn't say much, but showed her unconditional trust in her companion through her actions. She held the [Soul-Stealing] weapon horizontally with both hands, locked her gaze in Bai Lan's direction, and then jogged up.

However, before she could rush to Bai Lan's side...

Bai Lan, wielding the Heavenly Feather Blade in one hand, vanished the moment she leaned forward, leaving only a wisp of dust behind.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Hill.

So fast!

Hill instinctively moved across the metal blade of [Soul-Stealing], blocking Bai Lan's path of attack.

The moment the two weapons collided, the lightning current exploded along the blade of the [Heavenly Feather Slash], and Hill couldn't help but groan and stagger.

Bai Lan did not give her a chance to adjust.

Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!

The unrestrained slashes came like a storm, with almost no pause between strikes, and the splashing sword energy left fine sword marks on the surrounding walls.

Hill felt as if an insurmountable mountain was crushing down on him, unstoppable and insurmountable.

Finally, in another clash, the blade emitted a loud, clear sound, and Hill was sent flying, falling to the ground in a sorry state.

"ended."

Bai Lan struck with the power of Iaido.

Da da da da da—!

Countless energy bullets, accompanied by dense explosions, poured in from the side, while Mine's [Romantic Turret - Pumpkin] was firing high-density beams of light at a frequency far exceeding normal levels.

Bai Lan halted her pursuit, wielding the [Heavenly Feather Slash] amidst the hail of bullets, its blade precisely meeting each incoming bullet.

Each shattered bullet burst open like a miniature firework.

This attack, this speed, is really weak. Because I've always played in high-level games, I rarely encounter a low-level game where I can crush the opponent like this. It even made Bai Lan burst into a maniacal laugh.

"Useless, useless, useless, useless!"

...Unless Mine unleashes her full power now and delivers an attack that obliterates General Bud, it will be difficult to secure victory.

Bai Lan strolled leisurely amidst the hail of bullets.

During the time that Mine was suppressing Bai Lan, Hill readjusted her stance and once again raised [Soul Ecstasy] to charge forward.

"So beautiful!"

Amidst soft shouts.

The [Soul-Stealing] weapon in Hill's hand suddenly emitted a bright light, as if someone had thrown a flashbang into the enclosed space.

Bai Lan's eyes were instantly stimulated by the bright light, and tears welled up uncontrollably from the corners of her eyes. Her vision was instantly covered by layers of white light.

"it's over!"

"Yes, it's time to end this."

Let's see where your limits are.

Bai Lan gripped the [Heavenly Feather Blade] tightly with both hands, and violent lightning suddenly exploded along the blade. Arcs of electricity spread wildly through the corridor, and the dazzling light dispelled all the darkness. Even the air trembled slightly under the pressure of this power.

—Thunder Roar Cannon!

Golden lightning condensed on the blade, emitting a dazzling light from the guard to the tip.

At the moment when the thunder and light reached their peak, Bai Lan suddenly swung down the Heavenly Feather Blade in her hand.

The dazzling lightning burst forth with unparalleled brilliance and power in that instant, like a torrent that had been compressed to its limit and finally burst open.

A bolt of lightning, several times more powerful than the lightning wave unleashed by the Thunder Beast Chieftain at full strength, roared upwards, carrying the kinetic energy to shatter everything, and swept out along the center of the corridor.

The entire corridor was completely occupied by the lightning pillar at this moment. Fine cracks appeared on the stone bricks on the walls under the cover of light, and everything in front of us was swallowed by the lightning, turning into a complete pillar of light pouring forward.

Hill stood there blankly not far away, his body beginning to twist, as if he would melt away under the Thunder Roar Cannon at any moment.

"Hill!!!"

Mine felt as if she were exposed to an unprecedentedly harsh and extreme environment. Her instinct for self-preservation was screaming, and her almost boiling emotions were being channeled into the pumpkin in her hand as exaggerated emotional energy.

"I will never let you die here, and we will not fall before the dawn of victory! We must be the ultimate winners!"

She gritted her teeth, and then a beam of energy no less powerful than the 'Thunder Roar Cannon' was unleashed.

After unleashing an attack that resembled a laser cannon, the powerful recoil also threw Mine's slender figure away.

After firing this ultimate energy cannon, Mine, whose mental energy was exhausted, fell into a coma and collapsed weakly to the ground. Even the barrel of the [Romantic Turret - Pumpkin] in her hand developed a crack.

Hill did not back down; she stepped forward and stood in front of Mine.

Holding the ancient scissor-shaped Imperial Arm, 【Severing All Things - Soul-Sealing】, horizontally with both hands, she held it in front of her chest in a defensive posture.

【Severing All Things - Soul-Shattering】 can be considered one of the earliest Imperial Arms to be created, and it even participated in the battle to annihilate the Dragon in the Clouds.

Therefore, its ability is quite simple: it can cut through anything in the world. In addition, its weapon is very hard, so it can also be used for defense. Its ultimate technique is to emit a wide range of dazzling light as cover.

"Soul-stirring, block him!"

boom!!!

The pumpkin's attack collided violently with the Thunder Roar Cannon, and a huge explosion resounded. The air was compressed into a visible shockwave, which surged outwards to both ends.

Mine and Hill's figures were instantly engulfed by the impact...

"Where did that bastard Ernest find so many amazing guys... This captain of the Thirteenth Traitor Division is a superman in every sense of the word!"

"This battle didn't even involve using Imperial Arms, yet they were able to unleash a technique comparable to the ultimate art of an Imperial Arms!"

Feeling the deafening explosion beside her, Chelsea pressed down on her newly put-on red plaid skirt with one hand and held down her hair with the other.

"Hill and that idiot Mine, they can't really be dead here, can they...?"

Once everything had calmed down, Chelsea breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Mine and Hill had disappeared from the corridor.

And just then, a firework rose into the night sky, bursting into brilliant light.

This also signifies the success of the night raid.

Berlik was beheaded; it was time to retreat.

"I can't retreat..."

Chelsea looked at Bai Lan standing at the door, tears welling up in her eyes: "Everyone from Night Raid, will we ever see each other again? It seems like my wish is about to be fulfilled under these inexplicable circumstances."

"Did they escape?"

Looking at the empty corridor, Bai Lan put away the Heavenly Feather Blade, thinking to herself that the rule of "no harm even with smoke" still works for her.

"But so be it, you've already escaped. Anyway, my purpose wasn't to come here for you... Anning Road, son of the minister, Brand is my prey!"

Seeing the signal for takeoff, Bai Lan smiled. With Berlik dead, the uprising in Anning Road was inevitable.

The empire that had ruled for a thousand years had reached a critical juncture on the verge of collapse.

Chapter 90 Dimensional Array, The Death of Sheila (3K2)

The bedroom of the mansion.

Leone twisted Beric's head off and then looked at Susanoo.

"Susanoo, has the signal been given?"

"Yes, it's time to retreat."
