A group of people hurried back to the "Night Raid" headquarters.

As soon as they returned, they saw the figure of BOSS Najeshitan, so Akame and others went up to say hello and inform her of the news.

"It's like this. Didn't the boss mention a young man some time ago? Now Chi Tong has found him. His name is Shen Yuan, and he's interested in joining us!"

"are you sure!"

Najeshitan swept her eyes over everyone, then fixed her gaze on "Shen Yuan", staring at this young man whose aura was as elusive as a shadow, and whose presence was difficult to detect without careful observation.

"Hello, Najeshitan, I have come to join you."

Shen Yuan's eyes under the mask were like torches, staring straight at the beautiful assassination team leader BOSS in front of him.

"Eh!!" Najeshitan's beautiful eyes widened when she saw Shen Yuan, "Are you really that boy?!"

"Replacement guaranteed."

Shen Yuan was also looking at the other person.

Najeshita is the leader of a professional assassin group and a former general of the empire. At that time, Esdeath was her deputy and colleague.

Today, Najeshitan's right arm is a modified mechanical arm, she wears a black mask on her right eye, and wears a well-fitting black suit, giving people the feeling of a big sister. The cigarette in her mouth reveals a sense of boldness.

"Unbelievable!!" Najeshitan seemed surprised that Shen Yuan was still alive and appeared in front of her intact. However, she had learned some information and had the idea of talking to Shen Yuan in private.

"You all, go back to your rooms and rest!"

Najeshitan glanced at the "Night Raid" members who were discussing something, then said to Shen Yuan, "Come on, follow me into the house. I want to talk to you alone!"

Interview?

However, this is Najeshitan's home court, so Shen Yuan did not refuse.

The two of them walked into the house representing the leader. Everyone else was forcibly sent back to their respective rooms. Shayu was also pulled away by Leona and the others. In the empty house, Shen Yuan and Najeshitan were alone together.

"Tell me, why are you targeting us?" Najeshitan sat on the sofa with a manly look and said directly, "What benefits will it bring to you if you join the night raid?"

"I have three targets I must kill. With my abilities, I can definitely assassinate any one of them, but the margin for error is low. Once something goes wrong, the difficulty will increase significantly. As a professional assassin group, Night Raid has the intelligence network, manpower, and resources backed by the Revolutionary Army."

Shen Yuan stated his purpose directly and told Najeshitan that he wanted to borrow the power of the sharp blade "Night Attack".

"Who do you want to kill?" Najeshitan took a deep puff of cigarette and puffed out smoke.

"The emperor, the minister, and the general." Shen Yuan said three names.

"That's easy for you to say. These three are also the ultimate targets of our "night raid", but it's not as easy to achieve as you think!" Najeshitan is a soldier, and she naturally knows how difficult this kind of assassination mission is.

"What's so difficult about it? I'll kill them with one blow if I get the chance!"

"What about the chances?" Najeshitan chuckled. "The Imperial high command has the Hunter Corps, the Three Beast Warriors who follow Esdeath, the Minister has his own personal executioner, and the four chosen masters of the Imperial Fist Temple, the Four Rakshasas. They are the pinnacle of strength among non-Imperial Gear wielders, capable of rivaling Imperial Gear users with their bare hands. Even the Minister's son has his own secret police force, the Wild Hounds. Beyond all that, General Budd himself is incredibly powerful..."

"What if Esdeath joins the Revolutionary Army?" Shen Yuan grasped Draktharr's Duskblade and said meaningfully, "What are our chances of winning?"

"Are you dreaming?! If Esdeath joined us, we wouldn't need all these assassination tactics. We could just overwhelm the Empire's top brass!"

Najeshitan said without exaggeration, "To defeat this madwoman, we'll need the combined efforts of at least 5 elite soldiers and over ten true Imperial Artifact users, including our assassin ace, Akame. What makes you think she'll join us? As her former colleague, I know her better than anyone else."

There is one thing to say, indeed.

In the original work, during the decisive battle in the imperial capital, Esdeath single-handedly fought against more than ten imperial weapon users and a million troops, showing unparalleled strength. However, because she was too immersed in the battle, she revealed a flaw and was hit by Akame Murasame. In order to fight against the curse, she had to cut off her wrist and replaced her right arm with an ice blade.

In the end, he was defeated by the cursed Akame who mastered the special skills. Having said that, Akame's attack mainly relied on the power of [One Hit Kill·Murasame], and the lethality was mainly reflected in single targets.

Esdeath is a group attack, just like the three admirals Aoki in One Piece. In the face of the power of the imperial weapon [Magic God Appearance: Devil's Essence] that freezes everything, even the entire time and space can be completely frozen.

"I have my own way to defeat her, but I can't approach her openly. I must be given a chance to approach her without being noticed."

"Tell me about it!" Najeshitan actually admired Shen Yuan's arrogance. If an assassin didn't even have this kind of self-confidence, he would probably never be able to complete any difficult task again.

"My Imperial Gear, the Duskblade of Draktharr, has a special ability called 'Shadow Magic.' It can gradually control the minds of others through nightmares, turning them into my puppets. If I can get close to Esdeath while she's asleep, I can invade her dreams and change her opinion of the Revolutionary Army."

"That's easy to say, but how can I get close to a sleeping Esdeath so easily... Wait, maybe there's a way I can do that!"

Najeshitan suddenly revealed a strange smile, as if she had a plan with a deeper meaning.

Chapter 38 The target is Esdeath!

"In the eyes of outsiders, Esdeath is a super S queen, ruthless to her enemies, and full of queenly demeanor. But in reality, like most women, she also has a little womanly side at heart, and hopes to have a normal relationship."

Najeshitan recalled that when she and Esdeath were colleagues, Esdeath seemed to have told her the criteria for choosing a partner.

"First, Esdeath values future possibilities. You must train yourself to become a general-level figure in order to catch her eye."

"Second, she has courage. Even with nothing, she dares to go hunting dangerous species with her."

"The third one, like her, grew up not in the imperial capital but in the border areas."

"Fourth, be younger than her, because that way she can easily dominate you."

"Fifth, preferably someone with a pure smile."

After Najeshitan finished speaking, she suddenly stood up from the sofa and circled around Shen Yuan a few times. The more she looked at him, the more satisfied she became. "Not bad, not bad. You basically meet all these requirements. Although the fifth one, a pure smile... that's only the best. If you excel in other aspects, Esdeath will also change her standards for choosing a partner."

"You want me to go on a blind date and seduce Esdeath?" Shen Yuan was stunned for a moment. Things were developing in a strange direction.

"For an assassin, this should be an essential skill, right? Besides, do you have a more suitable method?"

"If I can make Esdeath unconscious, then there's a way. I need the blood of a powerful, super-dangerous species. If I can obtain the blood or cells of this super-dangerous species, I'll have the power to defeat Esdeath..."

Shen Yuan said that after fusing with the super dangerous species, he would unlock the power of the [Heavenly Evil] Tribulation and his physical fitness would be greatly improved. This way, when he released the [Forbidden Secret! Instant Prison Shadow Killing Formation], the power would be doubled.

As long as all the power is poured on the enemy in an instant, even if that person is made of steel, he will be shattered into pieces by shadow magic.

"Hunting super-dangerous species? Hmm... that's just Plan B. If you want to have complete control of your chances of success, my suggestion is that you use your knowledge of the Imperial Assassination Department to disguise yourself and join the Hunter Corps as Esdeath's subordinate. While acting as a spy, you also need to keep in touch with us. I will try my best to have the Revolutionary Army inform you of the location of the super-dangerous species. You must find a way to convince Esdeath to hunt with you. With her help, you can easily obtain materials on super-dangerous species. Then, take this opportunity to contact Esdeath when she's off guard..."

Najeshitan made a gesture of wiping her neck. "Whether to kill or persuade you to surrender is up to you. But if both fail, we will find a way to support you and try to get you out safely! Then we can continue with Plan C. All professional killers, attack together!"

"That day will come soon." Shen Yuan nodded in agreement with Najeshitan's proposal. He had the same idea.

Because this is the only chance to get close to Esdeath.

As long as Esdeath does not take action, even if she cannot be persuaded to surrender and chooses to sit back and watch, with the help of the "Night Raid" killer organization and him, it will not be difficult to wipe out the top leaders of the empire.

"I wish you good luck in martial arts." After Najeshitan and Shen Yuan had communicated for so long, she showed her usual confident smile on her face.

No matter whether Shen Yuan succeeds or fails.

There will be no major losses for either her or the revolutionary army.

What if it succeeds?

Without giving it much thought, Najeshitan gathered all the members of the "Night Raid" into the hall again and began to speak.

"Everyone, I have a news announcement here today. This is Shen Yuan. You've all met him. From today on, he's our common partner! Of course, the girl who came with Shen Yuan is also our partner. Please take good care of her."

Najeshitan made the official announcement, but Tatsumi was the only one who looked anxious, as if saying: What about me? What about me?

"oh!!"

"Great!"

"We have another powerful partner! It is said that even Akame felt the pressure when facing him!"

"My fighting spirit is surging!"

"Also, I won't go into too much detail about Shen Yuan's strength. Instead, I'll give you a mission to coordinate with him. Also, from today on, Shen Yuan will be a special member of the Night Raid team. His future missions will alter the course of the entire Imperial Capital. You must obey his words as orders. Do you understand?"

When Najeshitan explained Shen Yuan's plan to assassinate Esdeath, everyone was shocked.

Apart from anything else, this courage alone is not something that ordinary people can possess.

"Yes! BOSS!"

"learn!"

......

At night, in the base camp.

Even for a group of professional assassins that targeted the corrupt nobles of the imperial capital, they didn't have missions to carry out every day.

The main reason for this is that the rumors of "night raids" have spread everywhere recently, and most nobles have begun to pay attention to their own safety. The garrison in the imperial capital is also significantly larger than usual.

The Imperial Capital's secret police force, "Wild Hounds," established in the name of a minister's son, becomes the opponent of "Night Raid." Their members are top masters from all over the world, most of whom are imperial weapon users.

But compared to the "Night Raid" that only killed corrupt nobles, they committed many evil deeds and acted cruelly, killing countless civilians.

However, at present, they have not found the location of the night attack headquarters.

During this rare free time, the Night Raid members would choose various ways to pass the time. Except for the eldest brother Brand who would pull Tatsumi to exercise in the yard, no one else seemed to practice their fighting skills.

Obviously, since the nobles involved in the night raid were all greedy, lustful, and greasy guys, it was not difficult at all. So much so that except for the eldest brother Brand who liked to challenge the strong in battle, everyone thought that "assassination was a very simple thing."

Therefore, they will die one after another in the future, and each death will be more miserable than the last.

In this regard, Shen Yuan felt helpless about the fact that everyone thought assassination was a simple matter, and decided to teach them a lesson for being lazy.

He released several shadow clones to attack these guys, showing their ugly appearance in front of everyone. No matter whether they were men or women, they were all knocked to the ground by the shadow clones, as if to tell them that if Shen Yuan was an enemy, they would be dead.

Chapter 39: Fusion Skills! Obtain the Phantom Spirit!

At first, everyone was dissatisfied with Shen Yuan's use of force to intimidate.

But when they began to challenge Shen Yuan one after another, they found that their so-called assassination skills and combat experience were simply a joke.

No one could get close to Shen Yuan, or hurt his real body.

He was like a ghost, switching positions with his shadow clone in an instant every time. Unless they attacked together, Shen Yuan's real body would be able to swing the sword to block the moves. In other cases, he would just passively take the beating.

But the most surprising and shocking thing is.

When they were about to confront Shen Yuan head-on, they found that Shen Yuan took out a magical sword [Spirit of Dreams] emitting a purple glow from his back as if by magic. This was a "legendary" weapon that Shen Yuan had obtained after traveling to this world through assassinations and exchanging the gold coins he had saved.

"Ding--"

A sound like the sound of a sword ringing out was heard. It sounded so pleasant, like the sound of a flowing spring, but it gave people a creepy feeling that made their souls tremble.

"Double Swords Hua Slash!"

"Instant Prison Shadow Killing Formation!"

Cardiopulmonary arrest.

The three shadow clones released by Shen Yuan actually waved the shadow copies of [Spirit of Phantom Dreams] at the same time, releasing the Demon Sealing Sword Soul's ultimate move "Sealing Dust and Absolute Thoughts Slash" in different directions!

At that moment, several huge slashes landed at the same time!

The sword energy crossed each other, turning the scarred earth into a crack leading to hell in an instant.

The shocked crowd was blown up by the strong wind, their clothes torn to pieces as they fell to the ground, and all of them lost their fighting ability.

This is more than just ridiculously strong.

The "Night Raid" members, shocked by the force, looked at Shen Yuan again with eyes filled with awe and fear. Only at this moment did they know what Chi Tong had experienced that day.

"You guys, take me as your goal and start training!"

Shen Yuan held the demon sword Phantom of the Night in his left hand and the demon blade Draktharr's Duskblade in his right hand, looking down at the group of "Night Raid" members who fell to the ground.

For a moment, there were only a few people who could still keep kneeling on one knee except Chi Tong and the eldest brother Brand.

At first, Shen Yuan didn't expect that the shadow clone could actually simulate the swordsmanship of the Demon-Sealing Sword Soul. But when he thought about it, the shadow clone was shadow magic, a part separated from himself, so the physical skills, swordsmanship and all other movements that he knew, the shadow clone should naturally inherit 100%.

This is also the reason why Feng Chen's Jue Nian Zhan was not just one strike, but multiple strikes occurred at the same time. The scene was simply spectacular.

It was like a clone brawl, with several heroes appearing at the same time and launching their ultimate moves together.

This undoubtedly greatly improved Shen Yuan's explosive power.

If you think about it this way, if you gain more hero abilities in the future, doesn’t that mean you can combine them freely?

For example, when Blade Shadow activates his ultimate to become invisible, he uses Nightmare's ultimate to fly towards the enemy, then uses the Instant Prison Shadow Killing Array to mark the target, then uses the Sealing Dust and Absolute Thoughts Slash to knock the enemy away, and finally uses the Gale of Death Slash to keep the enemy suspended in the air and unleash thousands of slashes.

After this, no one can survive, right?

It also means that the mage's skills can be combined freely. If there is a chance to unlock the Evil Little Mage's passive Supernatural Power, the Desert Reaper's passive Soul Drain, Thresh's Hell Curse, Feast of the Void, etc., and integrate these skills with super growth potential and infinite stacking layers into various mage skills.

Requiem, Energy Blast, Crowstorm, Flamestorm, Glacial Storm...

By then, any one of them will be at the super magic level.

......

"How about it, do you know my strength now?"
