Chapter 184 Amber’s choice
The moonlight fell, covering the entire imperial capital with a layer of silver.
In a luxurious mansion near the palace, a giant man was constantly eating the meat in front of him.
As the most powerful minister in the empire, Ernest was almost the master of the country because the young emperor obeyed him.
Under such circumstances, the successive assassinations were simply a challenge to his authority.
If things go on like this, not only will other officials become panicky, but Ornest's own life will also be threatened.
This kind of thing must not happen.
"Report... report!!"
The guard's urgent voice sounded outside, and Ernest's expression immediately darkened after he was interrupted from eating, but he knew that something must have happened, otherwise no one would dare to approach this room.
"What happened?"
"My lord... Count Purple Flower was killed, and all his immediate family members, including him..."
"Just die, it's no big deal."
Ernest picked up a handkerchief and wiped the grease from his mouth, "If it's just because of this, you know what the consequences will be."
"No, sir, the count's family died extremely miserably, as long as you see it for yourself you will know."
The guard outside the door began to tremble with his legs. He knew very well the temper of his master. If he was unlucky, it was possible that he would be dragged to feed the dog.
"Yeah?"
Ernest stood up and opened the door, "Then let's go and have a look. It's just a good time to take a walk after dinner."
Those little thieves who attack at night are getting more and more aggressive. Perhaps Esdeath should be recalled.
Anyway, those alien races in the north will not be able to invade the empire for a while. Only by dealing with the bugs under your nose can you enjoy it more peacefully.
Zijinhua was an obedient and fairly capable dog, but if he was killed like this, many things would no longer be as convenient as before.
With thoughts in his mind, he got into the carriage.
A moment later, a commotion woke Ernest up. He frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Why are there untouchables in this place?!"
"Ugh...oh, sir..."
The coachman was speechless.
Ernest opened the curtain and immediately saw the house that had been turned into a sea of flames not far away, and the body that was hung on the street lamp with only the head still intact.
One, two, three...
In addition to the Zijinhua family, there was also a middle-aged man with a yellow face who was also hanging.
His mouth was penetrated by a sharp wooden thorn, the skin on his body was gone, and large chunks of muscle were exposed to the air.
The reason for the uproar was that this man was not completely dead yet.
Ernest's stomach was churning, and everything he had just eaten rushed into his throat.
vomit!
"Go! Go and call Esdeath back! Damn the revolutionary army, I will tear them into pieces!!"
Not surprisingly, this matter was placed on Ye Raid's head again.
…
…
In a jungle outside the imperial capital, An Bozai carefully washed the blood from his hands.
Today is short, but also long.
The anger that had been suppressed in his heart was finally released, and the enemy's wailing soothed his already somewhat twisted soul.
This is a world where there are only positions and no right or wrong. Whether it is the revolutionary army or the nobles of the kingdom, in Amber's view, there is not much difference.
In particular, what he couldn't accept was that in order to fight against the imperial army, the upper levels of the revolutionary army actually united with foreign races and signed some kind of mutual assistance treaty.
As the water rippled, Amber withdrew her hand, wiped it carefully with a towel, then turned and walked towards the fire that was almost burning out.
Click...
There was a sound of branches breaking, and he turned to look at the forest in the distance. After a moment, he looked back, took out the dried meat and bread that he had prepared and started to heat them.
"You have brutally murdered so many people, and yet you still have the appetite to eat?"
Chitomi was the first to appear holding the demon sword Murasame. Despite her small stature, in fact, as a killer specially trained by the empire, she had been injected with various strengthening medicines, and her physical fitness had already surpassed that of ordinary people.
Coupled with the lethal properties of the God Tool, she became the best killer.
Amber said nothing and continued to do his own thing. He didn't bother to explain anything.
For some unknown reason, Chitong did not take action after drawing the sword, but stood there and waited.
After a while, a plump woman with one eye and one arm walked out of the woods, followed by everyone from the night attack team.
Tazmi, who was walking on crutches, walked last. When she saw Amber, she had a very complicated expression on her face.
He learned the truth of the matter. The aristocratic family that warmly entertained him was actually a demon in human skin.
Two friends who came out of the village together died tragically in the warehouse.
Strictly speaking, Amber was still the benefactor who helped him avenge himself.
"I checked your information."
As the boss of the night attack team, Nadjeta was once the general in the empire second only to Esdeath. However, after seeing too much decay and darkness, she chose to join the Revolutionary Army.
"Amber, a villager from Apple Village, came to the Imperial Capital alone to look for his enemies because of the death of his parents and sister."
She stepped forward alone and came to a dangerous distance from Amber, which made Chi Tong a little nervous. "You killed nearly two hundred people in one day. I recognize your strength. Join the revolutionary army and come with us." Overthrow this rotten country!"
"Recognition? Ridiculous rhetoric."
Amber bit off a piece of dried meat. His hard teeth and strong bite force allowed him to easily tear into pieces the food that would be difficult for ordinary people to swallow. "I have no interest in creating a new country. Besides, the current slaughter The dragon master will one day become an evil dragon, and it is the civilians at the bottom who will suffer in the end."
"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"
When Tazmi heard what she just said, she felt an inexplicable closeness to Amber. He was also born in a remote village in the empire. Because life was too hard, he came out with his two friends to make a living.
"You have also been harmed by those nobles, so you should understand our ideals."
"I said, I have no interest in the revolutionary army."
Amber slowly raised his head. Perhaps because of too many killings, his eyes had turned blood red and looked very scary.
Tazmi was stared at and sat down on the ground, finding it difficult to breathe.
This made everyone's expressions change drastically, including Chitong's, and they all took out their imperial gear and prepared for it.
Leonai, who was tricked this afternoon, directly turned on the beast transformation.
In fact, it's not surprising that these people made such a fuss. After seeing the fate of Earl Purple Flower's family, Amber seemed to them to be almost a dangerous species in human form.
Only Nadjeta was thoughtful.
"I understand what you mean. Welcome to join the night attack team."
There are only two lineups in this world, the Empire and the Revolutionary Army. To put it another way, it is a choice between Esdeath and Chitong.
For personal reasons, I really don’t want to write a plot about Amber joining the Empire.
