Chapter 966 Night Attack

The staff of Sharp Blade was replenished and still maintained its original size of ten people.

Esdeath led them to start a sweep. Her target was the imperial intelligence forces hiding in the dark.

Starting from City No. 1, Esdeath found the locations of the intelligence strongholds one by one based on the clues provided by the captured intelligence personnel. However, her actions did not go as smoothly as expected.

After clearing the two strongholds, Esdeath discovered that the remaining intelligence forces had been transferred in advance.

These intelligence officers are not ordinary people. They know that if their operations fail, their positions may be exposed. Therefore, in order to avoid possible risks, they chose to move their base, leaving Esdeath in vain.

In the process of waiting and verifying the intelligence, Esdeath has given these intelligence forces enough time to transfer. It also made her realize her shortcomings in intelligence gathering and analysis.

Then she remembered this lesson and would never do it again next time!

In the original plot, Esdeath also grew up quickly and became more difficult to deal with each time. Her talents and talents in combat-related aspects are unparalleled.

Although nothing was found in this sweep, Esdeath was keenly aware of a strong murderous intention.

This killing intent came from an unknown corner.

It's just that the other party didn't choose to take action in the end, which made Esdeath a little regretful.

At the same time, on another roof in the city, Leonai and a reincarnation were lying on the edge of the roof, observing the movement in the distance.

"Is that... Esdeath?"

Her Teigu, the Belt of the Lion King, gives her beast-like intuition and perception.

After sensing Esdeath's aura, she was instantly shocked by the powerful aura, and her body tensed involuntarily, unable to move.

Although the reincarnation next to him knew the plot, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw Leonai's nervous reaction.

He thought to himself that although this Lion King's belt was powerful, it seemed to have its drawbacks. When encountering powerful and dangerous enemies, if the user cannot remain calm and rational, the power of this Teigu will be greatly reduced.

Thinking of this, the Samsara Man's original plan to take the opportunity to sneak attack Leonai and seize the imperial gear was quietly abandoned.

As time passed, Leonai's face gradually recovered from her paleness. She took a deep breath, as if she wanted to exhale all the fear and tension just now.

Her eyes were full of confusion, and she obviously didn't fully understand what had just happened.

"We actually want to kill such a monster?"

She murmured to herself, her voice revealing her deep fear of Esdeath's strength.

In her eyes, Esdeath was like an insurmountable gap and an invincible enemy.

However, now she was told that this seemingly invincible enemy had been defeated by Noxus.

"And such a monster was defeated by Noxus?"

Leonai repeated it again, her tone full of disbelief.

In her opinion, a being like Esdeath should be invincible. How could it be defeated by an organization like Noxus? This is like a fantasy.

However, the facts were before her eyes and she had to accept this reality. However, the doubts in her heart did not dissipate, but became more intense.

"But why can she move freely?"

Leonai frowned, her eyes flashing with thought.

In her opinion, if Esdeath was really defeated by Noxus, then she should be under strict supervision. How could she still be able to move freely?

This question troubled Leonai and she couldn't let it go.

However, she knew now was not the time to dwell on the issue. The most important thing now is to tell BOSS the whereabouts of Esdeath so that the organization can be prepared to respond.

So, she immediately told Najexitan about Esdeath.

Najiexitan is the person she trusts the most.

She believed that Najiexitan would understand the importance of this information and make corresponding arrangements.

Sure enough, Najiexitan immediately became serious after hearing the news.

She knew the importance of Esdeath to the empire and what this information meant to the organization.

"We must take action now!"

Najiexitan said decisively, her eyes shining with determination.

"Although Esdeath has been defeated, we cannot take it lightly. She is the ace of the empire after all. If she regains her strength, she will be a huge threat to us."

Najiexitan began to think quickly about countermeasures.

She knew that dealing with Esdeath required great strength, and although the members of the organization were all elites, defeating an enemy like Esdeath required more careful planning and greater strength.

During this process, Najexitan began to think about why Esdeath was able to move freely.

She felt that this problem was not that simple, and there must be some deep-seated reason hidden in it.

"It's impossible for Noxus to have no control over Esdeath."

Najiexi said to herself.

"They must have a way to control Esdeath so that she cannot regain her strength."

These thoughts gave her a deeper understanding of Esdeath's situation.

"Is Noxus planning to use Esdeath as a bait?"

Najesita suddenly realized.

"They deliberately let Esdeath move freely in order to attract the spies and assassins of the Empire to rescue her. In this way, they can follow the clues and find out the spies of the Empire lurking in Noxus, and then solve the problem of the chaos caused by the Empire's previous troubles."

"In this way, they can solve all the enemies lurking in Noxus at one time."

Najesita was very impressed.

She felt that Noxus's response and strategy were excellent. It not only solved the internal threat, but also cleverly used Esdeath as bait.

At the same time, she also felt a little fortunate.

Fortunately, they discovered this information in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous when Esdeath recovered her strength.

Leone suddenly realized: "So that's it! This is really a sinister plot."

Najesita nodded: "That's right. But this is also our opportunity. We can use this opportunity to get rid of Esdeath, the biggest threat, in one fell swoop."

So, they began to formulate a detailed assassination plan.

They knew that this operation would be very dangerous, because although Esdeath was weakened, she was still an extremely powerful enemy. But they also understood that only taking risks can lead to success.
