Inuyasha: My job stats have no limits.

Bai Lan glanced at Suzuka, forgetting that this guy was a masochist, so his usual hobby was to train his body in order to endure more and get more pleasure.

It seems I'll have to put in a lot of effort to gain this guy's loyalty.

Indeed, with great power comes great responsibility!

"Lady Bai Lan, we are best friends!"

Suzuka still held her face in her hands, her watery eyes looking at Shirai, her plump legs rubbing together involuntarily.

"No, we are not best friends, and I am not a masochist."

Bai Lan withdrew her gaze and looked at Najenda. During the night raid, only Mine would be able to completely exhaust her mental energy, or Tatsumi would be able to resist him if he wore [Demon Possessed] and continued to evolve.

Unfortunately, either of them is now unconscious, or the other has not yet inherited the [Possessed by Evil Spirits] technique.

In other words, if Bai Lan were willing to take action, at least half of the Night Raid members would be eliminated here.

"Since they can't reach a shared ideal, and haven't taken action yet... are they trying to make a deal with Night Raid?"

Najendan also saw through Bai Lan's thoughts, so she took the initiative to offer her chips.

"There are still three Wild Hounds who haven't been dealt with: Clown Champ, Swordsman Izo, and Alchemist Dortya, who ran away halfway through our fight."

"If you don't want the news of your killing of the minister's son to spread, you must kill these three. Night Raid can also help you!"

"not enough."

"The entire Night Raid team will assist you with one assassination mission free of charge, limited to their capabilities and limited to Imperial personnel."

"not enough."

"call--"

Najendan took a deep breath: "You're being a bit greedy!"

"No amount of money to buy life is too much."

"You really think you've got me cornered?"

Najenda said coldly, "Don't forget, I am also a Teigu user, and my Susanoo's power is by no means inferior to yours!"

If she hadn't seen that the three Imperial Arms users were all being treated as if nothing had happened by Hakuran, she would have already ordered Susanoo to attack.

If you want to be seated at the table, you at least need to demonstrate your strength.

"So you're planning to trade a third of your life for a piece with me?"

"If you are really that greedy."

Bai Lan turned her head and glanced at the silent humanoid Imperial Arm behind her.

If this world has a clear hierarchy, and Esdeath and Bud can be called the "strongest," then Susanoo in his "manifested form" should be second only to those two in strength.

"How petty! I'm not a greedy person."

Bai Lan said, "But before we make a deal, let's settle some old scores. First, Chelsea infiltrated to try and assassinate me, and then your two pink-haired members tried to humiliate me during your night raid..."

Before she could finish speaking, Najenda said, "No need to add any more chips. If you want the Imperial Arms, I can give you the [Bow of Guaranteed Hit - Radiant Wings]."

"Is my reputation only worth this Imperial Arm?"

Bai Lan said coldly, "The Bow of Guaranteed Hit seems very strong, but in reality it has too many flaws and limitations."

Just like a sure-hit arrow in a secret technique, Bai Lan's Thunder Roar Cannon was enough to annihilate this nonsensical secret technique; it was all about hitting the target but had no real value.

What exactly do you want?

"Brand's Imperial Armor, 'Manipulated Armor: Demon Possession,' and the fact that Night Raid spread the word that you would kill the minister's son, this is good news for you as well."

Najendan:....

How audacious! How greedy indeed!

You want to eat it all!

"What do you take us for? A walking Teigu merchant, huh?! How could we possibly entrust our comrades to you!"

Lubbock said angrily.

"I'm not gay, I don't want your people, I just want the Imperial Arms."

Bai Lan played with the [Shangri-La], pondering that if she could also plunder the [Evil Spirit Possession] and trade it with Anning Dao, the purpose of her trip would be perfectly achieved.

Both of these Imperial Arms are extremely useful. One can be used to search for super dangerous species across the world and can also be used to save one's life. The latter is the best material for Bai Lan to use for "plundering"!

However, it feels like there's no need to continue the conversation now; we need to let these people experience the crisis before they can make a decision.

They cannot be killed, because Bai Lan still needs these people to continuously attack and kill high-ranking officials in the capital to pave the way for the resistance.

A month is really a bit restrictive.

Seeing that Najendan remained silent, Bai Lan turned and gave the order.

"What a bunch of ignorant fools, Polus, burn everything in front of you to ashes."

"Roger that, Captain!"

Borus, who had been hiding in the shadows, makes his appearance wielding a jetpack.

【Purgatory Summoning】As an Imperial Arm, fighting an enemy alone is undoubtedly the most foolish idea. The real way to unleash the full power of this Imperial Arm is on the battlefield.

When those flames, which cannot be extinguished by water, roam the battlefield, the power they bring is enough to make everyone despair!

This is a very standard Anti-Military Imperial Arms among the Imperial Arms!

Once the 48 Imperial Arms are assembled, they form the royal guard of the founding emperor a thousand years ago. All the Imperial Arms can be combined with each other, and with the addition of an army, they are virtually invincible, thus enabling the empire to achieve unification.

—Flame-breathing!

A giant fire serpent burst forth from it, but was severed in two by Susanoo's sword.

But the fire serpent did not die out; instead, it splashed out like liquid, instantly igniting the open space and Berlick's mansion. The raging fire illuminated half the sky, and scorching waves of heat rolled incessantly.

"continue."

As Bai Lan finished speaking, flames roared from the muzzle of the jet gun in Polus's hand, spreading rapidly along the ground to both sides, creating a complete circle of fire around the Night Raid members, trapping them in the center.

"Hahaha, you've finally met your match!"

Horse Head and Suzuka, hands on hips, chuckled as they approached from either side, ready to attack anyone who dared to step out.

Bai Lan stood quietly beside Polus, not allowing anyone to approach.

This is not good...

Najenda frowned as she watched the circle of flames shrink. Susanoo could break through the fire defense, but what about the rest of them?

Are we just going to let them be engulfed by flames, or let Matou and Suzuka rush in and finish them off?

"Boss, if you're confident, let Susanoo go!"

Lubbock gave a thumbs-up and grinned, "There's no need to worry too much about us, as long as we win in the end!"

Just as Najenda was about to speak, the dying Brand struggled to open his eyes, and before he could utter a word, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his breath immediately fading away.

If he hadn't received help, this gay man would have died from blood loss, and Lubbock would have been in a similar situation.

"Hand over the armor... BOSS."

"We can't let everyone die here because of the armor... Don't worry, before I became a Teigu user, I was the Hundred-Man Slayer, Brand!"

"Even without 'possessed by evil spirits' and without the Redback Shrike, I, Brand, am still no less than any Teigu user!"

Chapter 92: It burned out, leaving only white ash...

"Purgatory!"

Accompanied by Polus's whisper,

The already blazing ring of fire exploded in an instant.

The original circular fire suddenly contracted inward, transforming into a scorching wave of fire that engulfed the entire area within sight.

The air was distorted and changed by the burning flames. The intense heat scorched the wounds, turning the blood into dark charred marks. Even the raindrops were evaporated into fine white mist.

Layers of steam rose up, piling up into a dense white curtain in the firelight and night, as if the entire battlefield was being enveloped by a giant steamer.

In this situation, the night raiders could not hold out for more than a few dozen seconds.

"Roar, my burning soul!"

A short, sharp explosion erupted at the center of the flames.

A visible wind pressure suddenly spread out from the throwing point, even suppressing the raging infernal fire, which spread close to the ground as if it were being pressed down on its back.

Immediately afterwards, a blunt knife shot out, hurtling towards them like a meteor.

"Captain, watch out!"

Polus instinctively shouted it out.

Bai Lan raised her hand and firmly grasped the blunt knife that had shot through the flames.

[Possessed by the Demon of Plunder, Plunderer class experience +560]

[Raider level increased to 7/10, gain 1 more raid attempts]

It's finally here...

Bai Lan couldn't help but smile. Now she had the materials, and she also had the loot...

He raised his head and looked towards the center of purgatory.

Brand remained in the throwing stance, but in the next second, blood gushed from his entire body, and he slowly fell forward.

It burned, burned out, leaving only white ash...

"Captain, should we take back the flames?"

Bai Lan nodded, then said to Najendan, "Don't forget our agreement."

"Night Raid will not break its promise!"

Najendan gave Bai Lan a deep look.

Susanoo carried Brand and Lubbock on his left and right sides respectively, while the heavily injured Tatsumi was carried on his back.
