Chapter 961: Action Is Coming
The Empire, a behemoth with a thousand-year-old civilization, once stood at the top of the world, and its glory was unmatched. However, on this vast map, the only country that could rival the Empire was the Western Kingdom.
In contrast, the southern islands and the frozen land in the north appear to be relatively barren and backward, while the eastern island countries are even regarded as uncivilized wilderness.
In the original plot, the military strength of the Western Kingdom was astonishingly strong. The elite troops of the Empire seemed so vulnerable in front of them that they were easily invaded into the territory of the Empire.
Such a gap in strength has plunged the Empire into an unprecedented crisis. If it weren't for the sudden appearance of Esdeath, who was known as the "Ice Queen", the Empire would probably have fallen into dire straits at this moment.
It is indeed a good choice for the reincarnations to develop the Western Kingdom into the fifth party force.
The key is that the victory of the camp is the real victory. The Western Kingdom has not made any move so far. It is very likely that it has no interest in taking action against the Empire, or it just wants to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, waiting for the Empire, the Revolutionary Army, the Southern Noxus Empire, and the Anning Dao to fight to the death before taking action.
It is still unknown what status the reincarnation can get in the Western Kingdom. After all, the original plot does not mention the general situation of the Western Kingdom.
Esdeath took the Emperor's sharp blade and started to act. As a general who charged into battle, Esdeath's level in this aspect is actually not bad, at least better than most people.
At the same time, Scathach was also leading the novice assassins of the "Assassin's Court" to act.
Chang Wei asked the two of them to act separately just to see who is more useful.
In Chang Wei's view, it is a waste for Esdeath to lead the army.
This world does not value the number of armies, but the strength of individuals. A strong man like Esdeath can easily annihilate an army of hundreds of thousands.
So it is more appropriate to let Esdeath be the commander and leader of the elite troops.
With the sharp blades of the ten emperors cooperating with Esdeath's actions, even if she encounters the combination of Night Raid + Susanoo, Esdeath can conservatively win.
Before the invention of Maha Bottom, Esdeath still had a lot of possibilities to lose to Susanoo·The state of the evil spirit appearing.
But now Chang Wei has given her a very suitable treasure.
Originally, Chang Wei was thinking about whether to give Esdeath the Ice Heart, Ice Fist or Ice Staff, and then thought that Esdeath seemed to prefer close combat, and her ice power was more of an auxiliary.
Especially Esdeath's power that can shake meteorites with one punch, the Ice Fist is obviously more suitable, and it can also make Esdeath fearless of the curse poison of the imperial weapon·Murasame.
For all members of Night Raid, Chang Wei's advice is to read more books, and it is only when you read less that you will be deceived.
And, letting them die for their ideals and pursuits is the greatest kindness, and it is nothing if they don't die, on the contrary, Chang Wei never cares about them.
Then, Scathach was the one who produced the fastest results. She caught the suspicious person. Scathach did not kill the suspicious person immediately, but used her unique Rune ability.
It can directly touch the depths of a person's soul and obtain the most real information from it. Scathach gently touched the forehead of the suspicious person, and the power of the Rune instantly poured into the other person's mind.
Under the effect of the Rune, the memory of the suspicious person was stripped out bit by bit.
His past experiences, the secrets he knew, the people he contacted... everything unfolded in Scathach's mind like a scroll.
She carefully sorted out this information, looking for clues related to the Empire.
Soon, Scathach found the key information. The suspicious person turned out to be an intelligence officer planted by the Empire in the enemy, who was responsible for collecting the enemy's military dynamics and strategic deployment.
Scathach followed the clues provided by the intelligence officer and successfully found nearly a hundred intelligence officers related to the Empire.
Scathach did not give these people any chance. She quickly mobilized her subordinates to catch these intelligence officers in one fell swoop. These intelligence officers were sent to the cell, awaiting further interrogation and execution.
Scathach's move undoubtedly dealt a huge blow to the empire.
As for Esdeath, she had not made any good progress and was not used to it for a while.
Esdeath found that she was not good at intelligence warfare.
She used to be an excellent general, good at commanding operations and formulating strategies, but she seemed powerless in collecting and analyzing intelligence.
She tried to collect information from various channels, but often only got some fragmentary and vague news.
She tried hard to analyze the intelligence and tried to find some useful clues from it, but the results always disappointed her. She couldn't help but begin to doubt her ability and whether she was really suitable for this brand new field.
However, just when Esdeath was in trouble, a turning point appeared. It was a quiet night, the moonlight was like water, and Esdeath wandered alone in the courtyard.
Suddenly, a mysterious figure appeared in front of her. This person was wearing a black cloak and a mask on his face, making it difficult to see his true face.
The mysterious figure passed some important intelligence to Esdeath.
He told Esdeath that the Empire had no idea why she was free to move, and they thought she was imprisoned by Noxus.
The Empire's high-ranking officials did not understand why Noxus would be so careless as to allow such a powerful enemy to move freely.
Are they really so confident that they can defeat Esdeath again? Or do they have other plans and plans?
At the same time, the sharp blades of the ten emperors also attracted the attention of the Empire.
They were regarded by the Empire as the personnel to monitor and supervise Esdeath.
But this is not a problem. Even if these ten people are Noxus's Noble Phantasm users, as long as General Esdeath cooperates with them, they also have many Imperial Phantasm users. If they unite, they can ensure the rescue of General Esdeath!
Esdeath felt that the opportunity had come. No matter how the people of the Empire thought, they would not know that she had betrayed the Empire and became a Noxus.
"Imperial Phantasm User?"
Esdeath felt that this was a good record, but she didn't know how many Imperial Phantasm users there would be. Let's take them down in one fell swoop.
Will and the others received the news and prepared to take action to kill the ten suspected Noble Phantasm users who were monitoring and controlling General Esdeath in Noxus, and then rescue General Esdeath!
"Noxus..."
Will looked out the window with some complexities. After he came to Noxus, he felt that the people here lived a good life.
