Smoke billowed across the land, enveloping the nearby residential areas and streets.
Upon hearing that the Wild Hunt were coming, the residents of the Second District closed their doors and windows and stayed indoors. The slum dwellers even preferred to dig holes and hide rather than breathe.
Looking out the window at the smoke drifting by, the once clear sky seemed to be covered with a layer of dust under the smoke and fire. Everyone sincerely hoped that the Wild Hunt would leave.
However, on the battlefield filled with smoke and fire, everything will soon seem calmer than before.
" Koro, foot!"
Seryu said coldly.
Seryu was once a girl with a twisted sense of justice who shared a deep hatred for all evil.
After meeting Lin Feng, she gradually changed her stubborn, person-centric personality, began to think about problems more comprehensively, and began to regulate her emotions more rationally.
Now, facing this heinous man, is the perfect opportunity for her to unleash her emotions.
Koro's calves swelled up, followed by his thigh bones, and finally, just one of the dog's knees was enough to cover several car windshields.
Countless bursting, high-density muscles, as hard as steel, are assembled together, rising high and then slamming down, repeating this motion without gaps, with the force never diminishing.
Koro continued to trample on Enshin's corpse. He had just been severely injured by Mine's heavy cannon, and was quickly crushed into a pile of minced meat by ' Hundred-Handed Giant Koro '.
" Leone, are you alright?!"
Mine jogged over to check on Leone. Smoke was even rising from her body, and her clothes and the bandages on her chest were charred black. However, her condition was better than Mine had expected.
"This is a minor injury, it won't hurt or itch, and it will be fully healed in a few hours..."
Leone revealed a somewhat pained expression as she spoke. Indeed, the Teigu ' Lionelle: Lion King' granted Leone terrifying recovery speed and vitality, but Mine's heavy cannon power was also astonishingly strong when she was overwhelmed by emotions.
Having taken that blow head-on, even if Enshin were immediately sent for treatment afterward, he would likely suffer a lifelong disability, but Seryu didn't give him that chance.
" Lin Feng told me about the atrocities committed by you people... I had heard about them a long time ago, and seeing them with my own eyes confirmed it."
" Koro, stop!"
In an instant, the strange creature, its body covered in muscles and a metallic skeleton, reverted to its original form, transforming into a gentle and adorable puppy.
It seemed to have no recollection of its earlier atrocities, nestling at Seryu's feet, wagging its tail and begging for mercy.
Such a contrast and such terrifying brute force sent chills down the spines of Mine and Leone.
Seryu looked at the two people in front of her. There was no hostility in her eyes, but her expression did not relax at all.
"The members of ' Night Raid '... are enemies of our Imperial Capital Imperial Guard, but Lin Feng said that this time we are cooperating... Although I despise you, I will obey orders from above."
"..."
Upon hearing Seryu's words, Leone's constantly tense claws finally relaxed, and Mine also lowered the handle of the cannon.
Suddenly, a crystalline light shone in the eyes of the girl, Seryu.
" Lin Feng... it's been so long!"
A man's voice came from behind Mine and Leone.
"Yes, Seryu, you're really punctual... Well done."
Mine immediately turned around. The man was dressed in a majestic long robe, with a clean and handsome face, and his black hair was full of energy. His Akame eyes reminded Mine.
That cold feeling was exactly like Akame's; he undoubtedly resembled the person in the photo that Boss Najenda had once distributed.
' Lin Feng, the newly appointed Grand General of the Imperial Capital ' is truly a man shrouded in mystery.
Leone, standing beside Lin Feng, trembled and couldn't speak when she saw his face.
"Oh, I know you, blonde woman—you're that out-of-towner who's short two gold coins to go home, right?"
Lin Feng looked at Leone and said with great interest.
Even in her beast form—her revealing and provocative attire, her beautiful yet mature face, her shimmering blonde hair, and the hormones released by her excessively large breasts—all left a deep impression on Lin Feng.
"You... you are the new Grand General of the Empire... is that so?"
Leone immediately threw herself down in front of Lin Feng, disregarding her own dignity.
"Hey, Leone, you..."
"No need to say anything more, this is what I have to do!"
Leone bowed deeply to Lin Feng and said slowly,
"I apologize for offending you before. I am not a stranger, and as you can see, I am indeed Teigu."
"My desire for money was just a momentary lapse of judgment; it has nothing to do with my companions. Please let them go."
Mine looked at Leone in surprise, but Leone was an extremely flexible and adaptable woman, Mine understood what she meant.
Leone and Mine both came from the slums; they didn't care about dignity, only whether they could safely change their deteriorating situation.
However, the Imperial General is right here. Regardless of Lin Feng's strength, both Mine and Leone are exhausted, and they have an extremely powerful Imperial Guard behind them.
If Lin Feng gave the order, not only Mine and Leone, but the entire ' Night Raid ' unit would likely be doomed.
Looking at Leone's humble appearance, Lin Feng could only think of the hardships of life.
He too came from the slums and spent so many difficult years working in restaurants.
And now, even his former companions may not be able to change their fate, begging those wealthy gentlemen to show mercy and bowing their heads to life.
"You look badly injured. Don't push yourself. Get up."
I want to hear your reply...
Do I look like I'm going to be your enemy?
Lin Feng gave Seryu a look, then smiled for the first time in a long time.
It had been a long time since we'd seen her. This young woman had been diligently and conscientiously training and working hard in the Imperial Guard, and now she was an outstanding Imperial Guard captain.
" Seryu, come with me, as well as the two of you from ' Night Raid.' Although I won't attack you now, you must help me accomplish something."
Lin Feng said with a slight smile.
"I assure you that I will not threaten your lives, however... you may need to make some major decisions or face some unavoidable changes because of this."
