Chapter 445
Thirty kilometers north of the imperial capital.
The town of Cosmotan.
It has turned into a scorched earth, like hell on earth, and the one who caused all this is the middle-aged man who turned into a demon.
After doing all this, he still moved slowly towards the direction of the imperial capital, like a tireless killing machine.
Trying to burn everything in front of him!
On the cliff not far away, Esdeath also led the hunters to temporarily station here, overlooking the figure in the distance from bottom to top.
This time, even Esdeath was a little surprised, "The power of fire? It seems to be a good opponent to counteract me."
And Dr. Fashion behind her saw this, but put his hand on his right cheek and spoke elegantly.
"Is this the power of the divine tool? It's really a fashion that makes people obsessed..."
However, compared with this, Will on the side looked at the town that had turned into scorched earth below, and hurriedly asked, unwilling to delay even a moment.
"Lord Esdeath, when will we take action? We can't let that guy go on recklessly!"
But facing the question, Esdeath said very calmly, "Now is not the time to take action. If we take action now.
Then we will probably be attacked by other divine tool holders."
But Will couldn't accept it, and even plucked up the courage to refute.
"But if those guys don't take action, won't more people die in the hands of that monster?!"
But Esdeath responded to this without caring, "This world is the law of the jungle, and these civilians will die only because they are weak."
Hearing this, Will was stunned.
Subconsciously, he turned his head to look at the other people in the team, but they seemed not to hear him, or they didn't care about the lives of civilians at all...
Until this moment.
Will felt that he was so out of place in the team, and he even doubted whether he should really join the hunters...
The petite Hei Tong on the side was holding a snack bag in his hand, constantly tasting delicious snacks, not caring about it at all.
As for Dotya in the crowd, the corners of his mouth were raised, and he panted excitedly, "It seems that this fight for the divine tool will become quite interesting..."
...
At the same time.
Tatsumi and others also arrived here, on the cliff on the south side of the target, exactly opposite to the direction of Esdeath and others.
When the people of the night raid arrived, they couldn't help but look solemn after seeing the miserable situation below.
Marin looked at the moving figure below, and felt her hair stand on end, and her throat rolled inadvertently.
"What a terrible killing intent. How many people did this guy kill?"
Leona, who had already completed the transformation, could clearly feel all of this. The beast's instinct kept warning her.
The monster below could easily kill her at any time. This time, even she couldn't laugh, "This is the first time I've met such a terrible guy."
But even so, she still turned her head to look at Tatsumi beside her, and said in a slightly coquettish tone, "I'll have to ask Tatsumi to protect me later~"
But Tatsumi didn't respond.
At this moment, he looked down with a serious expression, and asked in his heart, "Ajuromaru, can you sense the existence of other sword masters now?"
Ajuromaru in the sword immediately responded to this question, "Esdeath is in the mountains to the north of you, and there are many people, about a hundred people, including six imperial weapon users..."
After receiving this response, Tatsumi subconsciously clenched his teeth.
But Ajuromaru didn't care and continued to say, "Of course, in addition to them, the aura of the masked man also appeared in the nearby forest, but that guy was alone."
For such a result.
Tatsumi was still a little surprised, but he was also slightly relieved, "I'm sorry to bother you this time, Ajuromaru."
Hearing the familiar thanks, Ajuromaru's mouth corners inadvertently raised, and gave the same familiar answer.
"Who makes you the master of the sword."
...
Outside.
On the cliff, Tatsumi, who came back to his senses, turned his head and looked at the night raiders in front of him, and then he said his thoughts with a serious expression.
"I just asked Ajuromaru, now the masked man and Esdeath are hiding nearby, no matter who takes action first, they will be at a disadvantage.
And Esdeath has brought six imperial weapon users100-man army."
When it came to this, the expressions of the people present also became heavy, but Brand stood up at this time and spoke out his own opinion.
"That is to say, under the premise that no other forces come to compete for the divine tool, we are the weakest party here!
For now, we can only wait and see. The best situation for us is to wait for Esdeath and the others to take action first, and wait for the masked man to join in the melee. Then, our possibility of grabbing the divine tool will be the greatest..."
That being said.
But is it really that simple?
In response to this, Rab on the side also took up the conversation, "In that case, it depends on who loses patience first, after all, the monster's target is the imperial capital.
With the speed of that guy, he will arrive the day after tomorrow at the latest, and Esdeath and the others will definitely choose to take action at that time!
As long as they take action, the masked man will definitely not miss such an opportunity, but the problem is that who knows how many innocent people will die in this way..."
This topic is very heavy, but he still put it on the table.
But they have no choice now.
...
As time goes by.
The sky gradually changes from night to dawn.
But from beginning to end, no one chooses to take action, and at this moment, the nearest town to the evil ghost can be reached in less than half an hour at most.
And behind this town is the imperial capital!
Now no one from the three forces has taken action, and they are all observing in secret, waiting for the best time.
Only the hunter side, Will finally stood up and said, "Lord Esdeath, let me evacuate the civilians in the town ahead! "
But Esdeath frowned and thought about this.
At this point, Night Raiders, including the masked man, have not taken action. It seems that they are sure that they will take the lead.
After all, the evil ghost's target is the imperial capital.
But Esdeath is not stupid, and naturally will not be the first to take action. As for Will's question, she also decided to accept it.
"Okay, but you can't go alone." As she said, she turned her head and looked at Dr. Fashion in the crowd behind her.
"Fashion, let your people try to guide the evil ghost to change its direction. "
