Inuyasha: My job stats have no limits.

"If they knew the price of this Imperial Arm, they definitely wouldn't want to use it."

Having obtained the information, Bai Lan looked away, but did not put Chelsea down.

"I've already given you the message... Please, boss, have some decency."

"I am not human."

"Fine, fine, you're not human, then according to the rules of the Empire, you should treat prisoners like me who surrendered voluntarily with good treatment!"

"Which empire's regulations?"

"The new empire you're about to build, boss!"

At this point, Chelsea chuckled mischievously. Once she spent some time with the captain of the Thirteenth Division of Traitors, she would know exactly what Bai Lan was planning to do.

It can be said that Bai Lan's heart is known to all!

Of course, this is also why Bai Lan is too lazy to hide in front of these people, because there is no need. Just like Chelsea, even if she wanted to inform on them, she doesn't even have an Imperial Arms and can't even see the ministers, so how could she inform on them?

Not to mention, she was also a member of the resistance.

The moment she breaks out of the Thirteenth Division's stronghold, she will be killed by Kurohime in the next second.

"Can you read my mind?" Bai Lan turned her head slightly and looked up at Chelsea, whose limbs were bound.

"Chelsey, you seem pretty smug?"

"..."

Chelsea shuddered and chuckled awkwardly, "No way, I'm just a maid, how could I be so smug!"

"Since that's the case, I'll mercifully give you a choice."

Bai Lan smiled brightly and held up the "Military Music Dream" in her hand.

"Choose one: 'Military Dream', 'Cross Tail', or 'Thunder' which I possess?"

"Didn't we agree that you'd put me down after you gave me the message..."

“I never promised to put you down.”

"you!"

Chelsea glared with her beautiful eyes, but under Bai Lan's smile, she quickly gave in and could only shout helplessly.

"Bai Lan, wake up! No one can be your maid, subordinate, lover, prisoner, and toy all at the same time!"

"But you can."

"Well..."

-

The south, a temporary stronghold of the resistance.

"What should we do? There's a checkpoint guarded by Bud Town ahead, and we can't break through at all."

"Esdeath is also leading her army in pursuit from behind. The foreign tribes in the northwest are completely unreliable; they have no intention of helping us hold off Esdeath!"

"Rather than needing territory, I think they want to create their own duchy."

"They've been given the opportunity, and they've been promised that they can establish a duchy, on the condition that they help us hold off Esdeath!"

"Give up five cities today, and we'll cede ten more tomorrow!"

"What can we do if they don't give it to us? Are we really going to wait until Bud and Esdeath reunite and wipe us all out here?"

Listening to the arguing around her, Najendan quietly watched the people's faces turn red and made no comment.

A ragtag army is just that—a ragtag army. The more critical the moment, the more likely they are to falter and fail to come up with any ideas.

The argument went on for an unknown amount of time until a simple, burly man in the corner stood up, which moved Najendan.

"Chief, what are you doing...?"

"There's no other way, let's activate that forbidden Imperial Arm."

The leader grinned: "Najie, the important task of defeating Bud will be entrusted to your Night Raid team from now on."

"No, the impact of exposing this Imperial Arm is too great... The weak will become blood bags for the strong, and lives will become cheap numbers, no longer even considered human."

Najenda immediately shook her head and refused: "More importantly, we need someone to preside over the ceremony, at least an Imperial Arms user."

"It's simple, I'll do it. Although I'm clumsy and can't do anything right, as long as it's just controlling the ritual, even a useless guy like me can manage it."

"That's what the leader said."

As the leader spoke with Najendan, the other nobles, whether from the North or originally from the capital, involuntarily stopped arguing, a cunning glint in their eyes.

—Success!

After so many rounds of suppression and probing, this guy has finally decided to make a move...

Whether it's a night raid or not is not important...

The important thing is that they desperately need the leader of the resistance to die, otherwise they will not be able to bring the entire resistance under their control for a long time, which makes them feel very insecure.

The Imperial Arms [Hyperion: The Jar of Death] can do just that.

By launching a large-scale ritual, consuming the life force of a large number of offerings and the blood and spirit of the leader, all the wounded within range are instantly healed.

It's like killing the rebel leader and gaining a fighting force—there's nothing better than that!

"We've come this far, we can't just give up now."

Upon hearing this, Najenda knew she couldn't stop her leader, who was so single-minded.

She silently turned around and walked towards the temporary base where Night Raid was located.

Inside the tent of this makeshift medical outpost, the entire Night Raid team lay quietly together. Mine, Brand, and Tatsumi were unconscious, while Hill and Lubbock, whose injuries were less severe, had already regained consciousness.

Their Imperial Arms were also neatly arranged in a corner.

Just yesterday, the nobles of the resistance, seeing that the Night Raid members had lost their fighting ability, wanted to divide up the Imperial Arms to arm their own troops.

Najendan was powerless to stop it, but thankfully the leader intervened and stopped the ridiculous situation.

This also made her realize how ridiculous the current resistance was, no different from the current empire.

Upon entering the tent, a strong smell of herbs wafted towards you.

The leader, carrying the bronze urn, stopped in the center of the tent and placed the [Xu Kui E Ya - The Urn of Death] steadily on the ground.

Outside the tent behind him, the rebels who had initially volunteered to follow him stood in their places, awaiting their fate.

"If a person is wrong to even exist, wrong to walk, wrong to breathe, then the world must be wrong."

"This world shouldn't be like this..."

The leader looked at Lubbock and Hill and gave them a gentle smile: "My friends, don't be sad. I just selfishly chose to lead my good brothers to wake up from this eternal nightmare."

"From now on, everything will depend on you... Please, you must change the world!"

"Hitan, thank you for everything..."

When Najendan heard this, the stronghold burst into a dazzling light.

The rebel leader was killed in action.

In exchange—

—The entire team is fully revived after the night raid!

.....

One by one, the Imperial Arms were placed on Bai Lan's table.

[Five Perspectives Omnipotent - Observer], [Warcraft Transformation - Hundred-Armed Giant], [God's Hand - Perfector].

In less than a day, the Akame sisters had already retrieved the designated Imperial Arms. Even Bai Lan was somewhat surprised by their efficiency.

However, after listening to them say it, I suddenly felt it was perfectly reasonable.

Ran possesses an extremely convenient Imperial Arm that can be used for intelligence gathering, while Polus narrows the battle area. Kurome uses puppets to restrain the enemy, and finally Akame, who has been hiding in the shadows, delivers the fatal blow.

There was absolutely no one who could stop these three.

The battle will be over in just a few minutes...

As for why a whole day was wasted, it was entirely spent looking for people and opportunities.

"...Team leader?"

Will, who had been standing in the corner, called out somewhat shyly.

"Oh, it's Will."

Bai Lan nodded and then introduced him to Chi Tong and the others.

However, only Ran greeted him. Polus was too shy to speak, while Kurohime stayed glued to Akame and had no time to pay attention to the newcomers.

It's not as useful as a doll.

"Hello everyone..."

Will scratched his head awkwardly, feeling that none of them seemed easy to get along with.

His Imperial Arm is [Asura Incarnation: Noble Chariot], a successor to [Demon Possession], with superior performance, significantly improved in both defense and agility.

However, it lacks the characteristic of [Possessed by Evil Spirits] which grows and adapts with each battle, so it can only be said that it is slightly inferior in terms of potential.

Nevertheless, the Noble Chariot remains a formidable Imperial Arm, not to be underestimated on any battlefield.

However, Bai Lan was not specifically looking for this Imperial Arm.

The main reason he sought out Will was that Will was able to equip two Imperial Arms simultaneously and successfully control them.

“Will, come with me. I need to see your body structure.”

Will: ?
