The Imperial Guard looked up and saw Wave, a man who was once quite famous in the Imperial Capital's Imperial Guard. Following his raised right foot downwards, they saw the head of a Imperial Guard, which Wave was stepping on as a warning, his foot pressed against the severely injured man's head.
"This... this is like being double-teamed..."
"The numerical advantage is no longer useful; they are all Teigu users... Although it's very unwilling, the difference in combat strength is simply too great."
Although the Imperial Guard were all men who risked their lives for the Imperial Capital, many of them were brave warriors. Even with a huge disparity in strength, they were prepared to fight to the death.
However, some of the Imperial Guard showed expressions of glee, which was so inappropriate that it greatly surprised Wave.
"What are you laughing at when you're about to die? Are you laughing at your own fate? Or are you laughing at this Imperial Capital?"
"Heh... I find you all laughable—our reinforcements have arrived! We contacted armed forces from surrounding areas and rushed them to the capital as soon as Minister Honest informed us!"
"Even you Teigu users aren't a match for so many of them... Heh, two fists can't beat four hands. I think you're the ones who should surrender!"
The Imperial Guard looked completely carefree, seemingly indifferent to their own lives, and were solely focused on killing Wave and Seryu. This kind of blind patriotism is hard to describe – should it be praised or ridiculed?
Wave sighed deeply, braced himself for a flying kick, and a blade of air flashed through the air, severing the throats of three Imperial Guard, instantly turning the scene into a bloody mess.
Looking at the remaining team members who were almost scattering like birds and beasts, Wave was about to give chase when he heard the sound of horns coming from all directions.
It was the sound of hurried footsteps, and just by feeling the frequency of the trembling earth, cold sweat broke out on Wave's forehead.
"This number is really not good..."
" Wave Seryu, former Imperial Guard the Imperial Capital Garrison, you two are surrounded!"
The leader's voice came through the loudspeaker. Behind him was a vast army of Imperial Capital guards. The dense black shadows were made up of tiny dots, and each dot was a well-trained and well-equipped Imperial Capital armed soldier.
"I advise you to lay down your weapons and surrender obediently, otherwise, you will have no chance of breaking through our encirclement!"
"Please allow me to refuse..."
Seryu spoke from behind Wave, but as she said this, she herself lacked confidence, just like Wave.
The ' Summoned Beast Berserk ' skill didn't last very long, and it might expire midway through the battle.
This berserk skill requires overdrawing one's life force and can only be activated once every few months. To be honest, Seryu didn't have enough confidence to deal with so many troublesome enemies while using Koro to protect himself.
Wave's situation is the same as Seryu's, or even worse—because the 'Asura Incarnation: Grand Chariot ' is an armored Teigu designed specifically for assassination and one-on-one combat. It can have a huge advantage in individual battles and small-scale melees, but it is extremely inefficient in situations where there are many opponents.
Perhaps if you're not careful, you'll be worn down and killed by the enemy.
"A war of attrition, huh... This is really troublesome..."
Lying on the ground, barely alive, Lan's wings had been almost completely burned off by the flames.
Having just faced the Destruction Orb without any protective measures, Lan had no choice but to use her wings to shield herself from the attacks.
Unexpectedly, the shelling was so penetrating. Even with the steel-like wings as a barrier, it still pierced through and shattered several of her ribs. Lan struggled to sit up.
"If even my wings can't withstand this kind of impact, what will happen to the members of ' Night Raid '...?"
Lubbock, are you alright?
By distributing all the threads equally among Mine, Leone, and the others, Lubbock meant that he would have very little left of the threads he had prepared for himself.
"Hehe... How could I? ----Something's up..."
Lubbock laughed as he spoke, but then his expression became uncontrollably ferocious, and he vomited a mouthful of blood.
"Seriously, what are you pretending for, Hero... you're such a worrying guy..."
Almost in tears, Mine went over to check on Lubbock's injuries again.
"Please scold me a few more times... cough cough..."
Lubbock was just like that; he seemed carefree and irresponsible most of the time, but he was always so reliable when it mattered most.
After a long slumber, Leone seemed to have finally awakened.
" Leone... you're finally awake?!"
Everyone looked at Leone, whose body was radiating a flowing, shimmering golden light.
Having suffered brutal claw attacks from Honest, Leone not only sustained superficial wounds but also had his heart, a vital organ, injured by Honest. Although he recovered thanks to Alucard's power, he ultimately did not obtain all of Power of Alucard, and thus it was only now that he was fully healed.
Unfortunately, she was then struck by the Destruction Orb of the Supreme Throne Shikoutazer. She should have been on the verge of death, but she recovered from her great injuries by relying on her special ability.
' The Lion Never Dies.'
The Teigu ' Lionelle: Lion King' enhances the user's athleticism, speed, and recovery abilities.
Its secret lies in its ability to restore the master's vitality in a very short time and extend this restoration period for a long time.
It's fair to say that Leone will remain in this indestructible state for a very long time to come.
"Where... is this... where is Honest? What is this monster?"
The Shikoutazer before them stood like a towering mountain, but a closer look revealed that it was not a magnificent natural landscape, but a man-made object composed of specially crafted metals and jade.
" Leone, we'll explain the details later. Right now, saving your life is the priority..."
Najenda said with concern.
"I wonder how Akame others are doing. Maybe we're destined to lose this battle, even if we don't want to..."
Everyone lowered their heads.
Although they were ordered by Lin Feng to fight to this extent, no one expected that the Shikoutazer would possess such terrifying power.
"I'm afraid even if Lin Feng came..."
"So, even if I've come, does that mean I'm here?"
A voice came from behind the group.
His red eyes, heavy black battle robe, and fair face were exactly like Lin Feng's, but his every move was completely unlike Lin Feng's.
