The Axis Cult was established very smoothly, and its layout developed very quickly. As long as you remain the sixth person for a while, you will be able to perfectly control the overall situation.
But the problem is that the empire is too strong now.
Esdeath and the many Teigu users are a force that cannot be underestimated, so someone needs to contain and consume their strength to accelerate the weakening of their influence.
"Let me tell you, I am currently the boss of a third-party force. Why do I have to be an undercover agent myself?"
Xiao Lin felt something was wrong.
Generally speaking, doesn't the boss sit at the back and plan the whole situation, using foresight to defeat the opponent? How come there are still people who go into battle personally? !
It turns out there is no one, so that’s okay.
Hill, Brand, and Liva, they are obviously dead and are not suitable to appear here, and the Axis Cult does not have any outstanding and reliable talents.
After much thought, he was the only one who was the most suitable.
Najexitan is right, the number of talents is the key to guiding the battle situation.
"But I didn't expect that they actually closed all the shops. I told them clearly that they would not leak information."
Sigh deeply.
Not only the stores opened in the imperial capital, but also the secret bases and handover points for night raids were all moved.
That's right, in the eyes of the other party, he is a traitor and an enemy who will expose his own existence. Naturally, he must cut off anything that may expose his traces.
Is it myself who caused the crisis of trust?
"Yeah, my justice detector reacted!"
A girl wearing a police uniform, holding a canine creature in her hand, immediately stepped forward after seeing Xiao Lin and Liu Zi standing there wandering around.
Very enthusiastic to lend a helping hand.
"Do you two need help? The Imperial Guard Seliu is a partner of justice! No matter what the difficulty is, we will help you!"
Did you mistake your search for a stronghold for getting lost?
He then heard her muttering softly: "...No, I have joined the special forces now, so I shouldn't be able to use the name of the security force. Forget it, never mind."
Seleucid Eubiquitas was the murderer of Hill.
Xiao Lin didn't hate her much, he just thought she was pathetic.
His parents and master were killed. He harbored twisted ideas in his heart and believed himself to be righteous. He did not see the darkness of the imperial capital, or rather, he saw it but thought it was justice punishing evil.
Wait, can we take advantage of it a little bit?
Xiao Lin rolled his eyes slightly.
"Hey~ hello~ are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable if you haven't talked all this time?" Sai Liu asked with concern.
Xiao Lin shook his head: "Thank you for your kindness. I'm fine."
"Very good."
Sai Liu smiled sweetly, his gentle and cute look completely incompatible with the distortion.
But knowing how twisted she is, I wouldn't think so.
"By the way, are you lost?"
"...So be it."
"Okay, then let me take you out!"
She greeted the two of them warmly and walked in front to lead the way. Seleu, who has a strange sense of justice, will never hurt someone once he determines that he is a good person.
Xiao Lin did not hesitate and followed quickly.
Today is a special day. General Esdeath wants to select strong men who can adapt to the Teigu. He has opened a large arena in the center of Imperial Street. Many people gathered there to watch the excitement.
Therefore, the two people wandering in the alley attracted more attention.
Sai Liu met them on the way to maintain order, so he extended a helping hand.
"I see, thank you very much, Miss Sailiu."
"You are welcome!"
Sai Liu smiled brightly again.
...so dazzling!
Xiao Lin blocked the direct sunlight from his eyes with his hands.
Walking out of the alley, Sai Liu asked kindly again: "I don't know where you are going. If you have nothing to do, you might as well go and see the martial arts competition held by General Esdeath for the citizens of the city. It is quite lively!"
"Of course, our original goal is also over there."
"Okay! We can go together again! Is this the reward for a just act? I'm so happy!"
Seleu seemed very happy to be accompanying him next.
After hearing this, Xiao Lin narrowed his eyes and asked meaningfully: "Miss Sailiu, what is justice to you?"
"Do good things, help good people, and kill bad people!" She answered simply.
"Then what is evil?"
"The opposite of justice is evil!"
"……I see."
Xiao Lin understood the chaos in her heart.
Seleu's definition of justice is very vague. He follows his own heart and believes that anything that does not meet his definition is evil.
If I have to say it...
"My heart and my conduct are as clear as a clear mirror, and everything I do is righteous."
How about it? Are you taller?
But one thing is that Sailiu is not as determined as Fanny Valentine (Big Boss T), and is still at the stage where he can change.
"arrive!"
Not long after, the three of them arrived where the crowd was gathering.
"Miss Sailiu, can I ask you for one more thing? I want to participate in this conference. Can you please take me to the registration office?"
"Sign up?"
"That's right. Don't look at me like this. In fact, I am quite confident in my own strength."
"okay, I get it!"
With Sai Liu's help, Xiao Lin successfully registered.
"Should I take you to the waiting area?"
"Then please... No, no need. I saw my companion. I'll just meet her later."
Just as he was about to agree, Xiao Lin spotted a wild blonde beauty from the corner of his eye who was cheering in the crowd.
"Yeah, see you later."
Sai Liu didn't care, he said hello and walked in the direction of his companion.
Xiao Lin waved his hands and walked in a certain direction.
"——Ah, I didn't expect there to be so many people."
Leonai, who relied on his physical ability to force his way to the front row, wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Well, there are so many people."
"By the way, can Tazmi win? The others don't look like weaklings... Well, he has been trained by some of us, so he should be fine."
"Indeed, after not seeing him for a while, he seems to have grown a lot."
"Right, right!"
Hearing the compliment, Leonai looked very proud and said with a bad smile: "Okay, it's decided! Let Tazmi buy me a drink after he wins!"
"Are you going to cheat him out of drinking money again?"
"Don't say it so harshly...eh?"
Leonai finally realized something was wrong. She turned her head and looked at the people beside her who agreed with her.
He smiled and said, "You really haven't changed, Leonai."
"...Xiao Lin?"
Leonai shouted his name blankly, and the next second she was so angry that she was about to use the Teigu to transform, but Xiaolin held her shoulders and forcibly controlled her.
"Don't be impulsive. Don't you want to see who is on the stage?"
"...Tsk."
Leonai clicked her tongue softly in displeasure.
Esdeath on the stage was too strong. If he caught the other party's attention, he would definitely be subdued. Not only would his identity be revealed, he would also be very likely to implicate Tazmi and other people in the night attack.
be patient!
"Well, you have grown up, Leonai."
"Don't talk to me with a happy face!"
Leonai pushed his hand away and asked angrily: "Xiao Lin, what is the purpose of your appearance now? Have you joined the empire?!"
"No, I didn't join the Empire."
Xiao Lin looked directly into her eyes and said seriously: "I will not join the empire, never, I can guarantee you this."
Unfortunately, it was completely unconvincing and Leonai didn't believe him at all.
Xiao Lin chuckled lightly and didn't explain much.
"As for why it appears here..."
"Next game!"
Coincidentally, the list of the two sides for the next battle came on the stage.
"Northern blacksmith Tazmi and... Imperial City clockmaker Xiaolin! Please come to the stage!"
