Chapter 111

As dusk fell, the Jaegers and Security Forces assembled, and Dr. Fashion arrived at the meeting point with his private army.

Dr. Fashion has many subordinates, and none of them are normal people; they have all undergone human modification by him.

Some of them were successfully modified, but most were defective products.

Besides the three detectives—eyes, ears, and nose—

There's also Doloma, skilled in ambushes. Tobi, a cyborg with a fully mechanical body and a flying car devoid of pain. Jasan, Horn Walker with a highly defensive body.

Even cyborgs with bodies perfectly integrated with firearms and missiles. And a large number of defective products, that is, ordinary grunts.

Some of their bodies have undergone mechanical modifications, giving them the ability to self-destruct. Others have undergone biochemical modifications with Danger Beast, granting them certain abilities of those Danger Beasts.

They no longer appear to be human, but rather Danger Beast, their forms incredibly distorted.

"These people..."

Will, a former Imperial Navy soldier, looked at the cyborgs brought by Dr. Fashion with extreme disgust; he found it hard to accept such modifications.

This must be torture!

That's too evil.

Lan's expression wasn't too good either. He wanted to change the empire from within, but it seemed that the situation was much more difficult than he had imagined.

But he didn't say anything...

Other than that, no one else seemed to care; they were basically indifferent.

Whether it's Esdeath or Kurome, all they care about is their own goals; everything else is irrelevant.

"Let's get started! Tonight, we must find those assassins from the Night Raid."

Esdeath didn't care about anything else and simply gave the order: find those targets. She only wanted the results.

"Lady Esdeath, leave it to me. I'm sure I can find those rats hiding in the shadows."

After speaking, Dr. Fashion turned around and ordered the three detectives (eyes, ears, and nose) to lead a team to the target area to conduct a search, with the Security Forces following closely behind.

With a population of nearly 10,000, even a single real mouse could be found!

Seeing a large number of people enter the jungle, the Jaegers were not in a hurry, but simply prepared for the upcoming battle.

"Little Bi, we're leaving too."

Unlike the other Jaegers, Seryu suddenly took Kobi and followed the members of the Security Forces.

Esdeath and the others glanced at her but didn't pay much attention, assuming she just wanted to find her target as soon as possible, and that it was no big deal.

Her Imperial Arms is quite effective at finding people.

Once Seryu was out of sight of Esdeath and the others, she immediately pulled out a small mechanical mouse from her person.

After turning on the mechanical mouse, she quickly said a few words to it and then put it down.

Beside Esdeath, all the Mechanical Construct on her body were in dormant mode, otherwise they would very likely have been detected by that person. There was no doubt about Esdeath's abilities and intuition.

I didn't expect to find the approximate location of the Night Raid base so quickly. If we keep searching like this, it shouldn't be long before we find Night Raid. I have to tell Clara about the operation...

After gaining their freedom, the mechanical rats quickly entered stealth mode and headed towards Clara's location.

However, even without Seryu's notification, the Night Raid team, who had already deployed a large number of robots near the base, would have noticed the large-scale search by so many people.

"..."

"Boss, we've been exposed."

"A large number of Security Forces are conducting a thorough search towards the base, and they will find us soon."

At this moment, the Night Raid members gathered together, and the atmosphere was very oppressive. Leone patted the head of the Automaton Soldier dog next to him and explained the situation around them.

There were spies that had approached the base before, but their numbers were small, and the risk of exposure was minimal after quickly eliminating them.

After all, the forest here is vast, Night Raid base is hidden in this secluded place, so finding it won't be easy.

But this time was different from before; nearly 10,000 troops were conducting a search in the vicinity of the base.

There is absolutely no chance of getting away with it.

"More importantly, our escape route has been cut off. It's too late to evacuate now, and we'll definitely be exposed."

Akame stood to the side, calmly recounting her discovery. Upon noticing the situation, her first priority was to determine the escape route.

However, the situation is not optimistic.

Behind the evacuation, the figures of those Security Forces also appeared!

"It's already this fast. Looks like I'll have to face her after all, Esdeath..."

Nadjeshda sat in her seat with a very heavy expression. She didn't want to confront Esdeath directly, but now it seemed impossible.

Not long after, Esdeath came knocking on their door.

Although Esdeath hasn't been seen yet, Nadjeshda is a given; it's definitely her doing, and Esdeath is watching from outside.

"In that case, boss... let's fight our way out."

"It's still uncertain whether we'll win or lose."

Although the situation was a bit bad, everyone was not desperate. There were quite a few people coming, but they also had a lot of fighting power!

It's not like before. Now that Clara's robot friends are guarding the base, who can be sure who will win or lose?

As for Esdeath, they've only heard about her from Nadjeshda, and without witnessing her strength firsthand, they have no reason to be afraid.

"Clara will help too."

Clara raised her little fist and said very seriously.

Although Esdeath's arrival was somewhat sudden, she was not afraid. Mr. Svarog had long wanted to test his skills against this super-S general.

"That's right, it's not over yet."

"Now that they've come knocking on our door, we can't be afraid of them."

Nadjeshda did have some psychological trauma from Esdeath, but after hearing Clara's words and thinking about the fighting strength of Svarog, she changed her mind.

With Svarog's help, they weren't necessarily without any chance.

There's no point in dwelling on it now; all we can do is give it our all.

"Well then, everyone, get ready for battle! I'm counting on you all this time."

Nadjeshda slammed her hands on the conference room table and issued the battle orders, even if this time she would be facing Esdeath.

"Yes, boss."

Everyone was full of fighting spirit.

Then, not daring to waste any time, they began to make arrangements for the battle, especially regarding the Automaton Soldier.

The key to victory or defeat lies in the battle between these Automaton Soldiers and Svarog and Esdeath, so the key is Clara.

Currently, there are about 600 to 700 fully Automaton Soldier near and within the base, while there are more than 3,000 simple, unintelligent robots.

Of course, this is only the number currently at the base. It's not easy to deploy too many at the Night Raid base. Several thousand other robots have entered hibernation mode and been placed into the system space by Clara.

It can also be taken out and turned on at any time...

However, in a battle against an enemy force of tens of thousands, there's no need for so many robots.

Let's wait until the final battle to show the Empire and the Revolutionary Army what a mechanical frenzy is all about.

The existing Mechanical Construct, including both intelligent and non-intelligent ones, only number a little over 30,000 across all the branch bases, which is far from enough.

The main problem is a lack of raw materials, insufficient mining operations, and a significant shortage of rare metals needed for the Creation Engine.

If we had enough raw materials and Origin Energy, the production speed wouldn't be so slow; it could be many times faster.

Although the base doesn't have many Mechanical Construct, they should be enough to deal with the Security Forces.

The Night Raid members' target was naturally the Jaegers.

It's a battle of kings against kings, and generals against generals!

On a cliff not far from the Night Raid base, Dr. Fashion's three cyborg eyes, ears, and nose detectives used their superhuman senses to lead the group to the location.

Although it was well concealed, my eyes still spotted something clearly wrong below.

It's highly likely they'll launch Night Raid on the base.

"Found it."

"Fashionable Master, we've found the Night Raid's base; they're down the mountain."

After confirming with his eyes, ears, and nose that there was nothing wrong, he quickly went to inform Dr. Fashion.

"Not bad, as expected of my fashion transformation work, it found its target so quickly."

"Then what are we waiting for? Go and call our fashion unit and destroy the Night Raid."

Having confirmed the location, Dr. Fashion smiled with delight and immediately issued the order.

"Aren't you going to inform Lady Esdeath?"

Hearing this, he was stunned. There were so many Security Forces, and it was just these members of the fashion unit who went there?

Snap!

A slap landed on Ear's head. Due to the hearing impairment caused by Ear's alteration, Dr. Fashion's slap caused Ear's ear to bleed.

The excruciating pain caused Er to collapse to the ground in agony.

"Don't you understand what I'm saying? It's just a mere Night Raid; there's no need for our Lady Esdeath to personally intervene."

Dr. Fashion was completely unconcerned about the situation with Ears, his gaze fixed calmly on the Night Raid base.

Chapter 50: All Cyborgs Annihilated

On a dark and windy night, the sky was as if it had been splashed with thick ink, pitch black, with even the stars hidden deep in the clouds, without a trace of light.

The wind, like an invisible blade, cut through the silent night, emitting a piercing howl, seemingly foreshadowing some ominous sign.

Such nights are the perfect opportunity for ambush and attack.

The darkness provided perfect cover for the infiltrators, allowing them to approach their target silently with little to no observation.

The strong winds fueled their arrogance, making them even more reckless in their actions.

Under Dr. Fashion's orders, a large number of his cyborgs approached the target location ahead of the Security Forces, ensuring they would get the first kill.

To Dr. Fashion, Night Raid, despite its infamous reputation, was merely a hidden assassin organization.

Once exposed, even those with considerable strength will only become prey.

He understood the power of the Teigu users, so... those defective cyborgs all possessed the ability to self-destruct, enough to deal with those assassins.

Even if the bombs couldn't kill them, he had prepared some terrifying chemical alchemical toxic fog on the bio-modified personnel. It was a powerful toxin that could weaken even the Special Class Danger Beast, making it foolproof.

Dr. Fashion thought that this mission didn't need those useless Security Forces at all, but he didn't expect Esdeath to make such a decision.

Unable to say anything to Esdeath in rebuttal, he could only take the lead and claim the vast majority of the credit.

In exchange for these merits, they could gain some benefits from the empire...

In order to perfect his ultimate dream plan, he created the strongest Imperial Arm that is comparable to the legendary Imperial Arm, which is also the source of all Imperial Arms, the Supreme Imperial Armament, the Imperial Arm of the National Defense Machine God.

Dr. Fashion was well aware that only members of the Imperial Family could pilot the Supreme Imperial Armament, and creating an Imperial Arm comparable to that was his ultimate dream.

A large number of cyborgs slowly approached the Night Raid base under the dark moon, making very little noise and generally difficult to detect.

But just as they were about to arrive at the base, before the dozens of cyborgs could even react, their bodies exploded.

Suddenly, dozens of Mechanical Construct appeared nearby, and the cyborgs were blown up by these robots without any warning.

"Oh no, we've been discovered."

"Careful!"

The remaining modified people only realized what was happening at this moment and hurriedly reminded their companions around them.

At this moment, even more Mechanical Construct emerged from the shadows and launched a cold attack on them.

[Intruder detected, immediate counterattack!]
