"Woof woof!"

The little guy was very happy to receive the praise. After placing the Teigu he had just received at Seryu's feet, he kept barking.

"..."

The sudden situation left Shil and Bols somewhat bewildered, unsure of what was going on.

Shil was wary of the girl in front of him. He clearly remembered that she had been taken away by Clara, so how did she end up here again?

Bols initially thought Seryu was there to help, but the fact that she stole his Teigu left him confused.

"That's enough. Just get the Imperial Arms. Don't kill him."

"It was also Clara and Svarog's idea."

Seryu picked up the Imperial Arms and turned to speak to Shil.

Bols was actually a pitiful man, especially his wife and daughters, who would have suffered a terrible fate without anyone to rely on.

Chapter 53 Esdeath's Terrifying Power

It's quite normal for a corrupt empire to treat the families of heroes who sacrificed their lives for it well, and to resort to oppression when they have no one to rely on.

In the original manga, Bols, as a loyal soldier of the Empire and a user of Imperial Arms, dutifully completed one mission after another.

However, after he sacrificed himself for the empire, his wife and daughter were discovered by Shura, the son of a minister, and other members of the "Wild Hunt" while they were sweeping his grave. They were raped, insulted, and died tragically.

This country is beyond saving.

"..."

Shil was initially unmoved, but stopped moving after hearing her mention Clara.

That's settled then. Anyway, without the Imperial Arms, the other party is no longer a threat.

"Seryu, you..."

Looking at Seryu in front of him, Bols finally understood that this member of the Jaegers was actually connected to Night Raid.

The Night Raid even revealed that they had planted an inside agent within the Jaegers organization.

"Live well, and protect your wife and daughters. The Empire may not necessarily take care of your family..."

"You definitely won't be able to accept the way we take care of you."

He didn't say much to Bols, just warned him a few times, then spoke a few words to Shil, and took Little Bee away from the area.

"..."

On the other side, looking at the angelic man in the sky, Mine aimed at him, but missed several times.

On the contrary, Lan above used the Imperial Arms Soaring Flight Mostima to fly in the sky. With each flap of her wings, a large number of feathers shot down like a rain of arrows.

Although they were all narrowly avoided...

"Will this work, Mine?"

Beside Mine, Lubbock couldn't help but use silk threads to block the feathers, but this wasn't a solution, as he couldn't reach them at all.

"This guy is too agile in the air, it's impossible to hit him."

Mine was also very anxious, firing several shots but missing by just a hair's breadth each time. She was very worried. Damn it, if only the boss used it, he could definitely hit her in one shot.

Another reason is that it's not easy to aim at a target at night.

"It's time to end this!"

After several attempts, Lan in the sky wasted no more time and unleashed Mostima's Secret Technique.

"Feather of God!"

The next moment, a large number of energy feathers shot towards Mine and Lubbock, and the two quickly sought obstacles to avoid them.

But with such a large area, there's simply no way to escape.

However, at that moment, several beetle robots appeared nearby and immediately deployed a defensive force field.

[Arrived at the target... location...]

[Force field... deploys...]

Layers of defensive force fields blocked Lubbock and Mine, completely blocking Ran's Divine Rain.

"Clara's Automaton Soldier!"

"Have all the surrounding Security Forces been dealt with?"

Seeing the robots appear, Lubbock and Mine breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, they looked around and found that other Automaton Soldier were coming to support them.

I felt a strong sense of security in an instant.

These robots had clearly cleared out the surrounding enemies before coming to provide support.

After all, the robots' previous priority was to stop those Security Forces.

Besides the beetles, other Automaton Soldier also arrived one after another, simultaneously displaying their missile launchers and locking their cannons onto Lan in the sky.

Under the scanning line of the Automaton Soldier's mechanical eye, the darkness does not affect the slightest deviation whatsoever.

[Target locked...]

[Ready... to fire...]

The robots locked onto Lan, and their cannons began bombarding the air.

"What?!"

Lan, high in the sky, sensed danger. He noticed that not only were his attacks blocked by the robots, but also that many more powerful bombing robots were targeting him. He dared not stay there any longer, having witnessed the power of these robots firsthand.

Without a second thought, I immediately prepared to leave.

His Imperial Arms not only grants him the ability to fly, but also allows him to fly at extremely high speeds.

However, no matter how fast it flies, it is still a bit lacking when facing the robots' missiles.

Even though they managed to dodge it immediately, they were still damaged by the blasting missiles and fell from the sky after a short time.

Their fate is unknown.

Let's return to Clara's perspective.

While everyone was busy dealing with the Security Forces and Jaegers, Clara was naturally not idle either.

However, her purpose was very clear: first, to be wary of Esdeath, who had not yet made a move, and second, to deal with that perverted doctor, Dr. Fashion.

Dr. Fashion, hidden in the shadows, watched the battle between the Jaegers, the Security Forces, and the Night Raid. He had initially thought it was a game of catching mice, with little suspense, but he never expected it to turn out like this.

Instead, the Jaegers and Security Forces here are about to be captured by the Night Raid raiders.

The main reason is those Mechanical Construct that appeared out of nowhere...

However, although the Jaegers were not in a good position at the moment, Dr. Fashion did not think they would lose today, because Esdeath had not yet made a move.

If this person makes a move, the outcome is truly uncertain.

For now, he'll remain hidden and quietly wait for things to come to an end.

Although I didn't get the top credit, it's not unacceptable.

However, while he was thinking this, he was completely unaware that he was being watched.

A girl's voice, no, it should be a loli's voice, rang out beside him.

"Clara has found you!"

"Who goes there?!"

The sudden sound startled Dr. Fashion, who instinctively looked in the direction from which it came, and then saw, in the brief moonlight, a white-haired, barefoot loli sizing him up.

Although the girl in front of him looked harmless, Dr. Fashion dared not be careless.

It seems rather unusual for a little girl to appear in this place at this time.

The more harmless a person seems, the more dangerous they may be.

"Little sister, who are you? What are you doing here?"

Although he was wary of the girl in front of him, Dr. Fashion showed a gentle smile.

"Dr. Fashion Gentleman..."

Clara, however, addressed Dr. Fashion directly by his name, showing great politeness.

Dr. Fashion became even more vigilant upon hearing the girl call him by his name, preparing to either strike or retreat at any moment.

"Could you give your Teigu to Clara? Clara really needs it."

Clara took a step toward Dr. Fashion and spoke to him very politely and earnestly, but the content of her words made Dr. Fashion's heart sink.

"Imperial Arms? Children shouldn't play with such dangerous things."

"Uncle has a toy here that would be perfect for you. How about I give it to you?"

As he spoke, Dr. Fashion pulled out a reagent from his person and threw it at Clara with a smile. As the reagent was about to reach the girl, his expression instantly turned ferocious.

However, the next moment, a robot appeared out of nowhere and immediately blocked Clara's path, intercepting the reagent.

The reagent exploded, releasing a large amount of toxic gas.

However, a barrier blocked Clara's body.

Upon seeing the robot, Dr. Fashion had a bad feeling and turned to flee without lingering.

However, he stopped after running only a few steps, his gaze sweeping over his surroundings with an extremely grim expression. He was now completely surrounded by a large number of robots.

"Dr. Fashionable Gentleman, you can't escape now. Can you give the Teigu to Clara now?"

Clara's expression was very calm. When she had previously drawn the attention of the detective robot to Dr. Fashion, she had kept her eyes fixed on him.

Naturally, he had already arranged for some Automaton Soldier to surround him, making it impossible for him to escape.

Clara will surely obtain the God's Hand today.

"There's really no other way!"

"Since you want it so much, little cutie, then I'll give it to you."

Completely blocked, Dr. Fashion seemed to have given up resisting and took something out of his person.

However, this is not an Imperial Arms, but an injection, the best Danger Beast drug he has developed so far, which can grant him extremely powerful Danger Beast abilities!

As for handing the Imperial Arms to the girl in front of him in order to save his life?

No, it's no use.

Even if he hands over the Imperial Arms, the other party will definitely kill him; Dr. Fashion is certain of that.

Since that's the case, then let's fight to the death.

It's not entirely hopeless; all we need to do is keep the girl in front of us under control.

Holding the Danger Beast drug, Dr. Fashion plunged it into his own neck and injected it. Accompanied by his painful screams, the drug immediately took effect.

His body began to grow to enormous size and possessed the characteristics of a powerful Danger Beast.

Having gained immense power, Dr. Fashion immediately targeted Clara, rushing towards her in an attempt to capture her.

This can be used as a breakthrough point.

However, the moment he made his move, the other Mechanical Construct also reacted and attacked him collectively.

Meanwhile, another part protected Clara.

Dr. Fashion Infusion's power is extremely strong, no less than that of a regular Teigu user, and even surpasses it in pure strength.

However, being surrounded by such a large number of Automaton Soldier, the outcome was already predetermined.

[Execute... destroy...]

[Cutting in progress...]

The Automaton "Wolf" raised their chainsaws and charged toward Dr. Fashion, their chainsaws cutting wildly.
