"I have no objection."
Leone, who deeply loathed the Empire, was delighted to see it completely annihilated.
Mine, who shared the same idea, nodded.
She didn't stare at the projection, but looked towards Bai Huaili.
"If Mr. Baili can really do it, please be sure to impose even more terrifying sanctions on them!"
NIGHTRAID's ultimate goal is to destroy the Empire, and now, Baili has achieved their goal—a goal they were willing to risk everything for—within ten minutes.

Chapter 223: The Annihilation of Hundreds of Thousands of Imperial Soldiers! The Path of Destiny Joins the War! Minister Ernest Rebels!
The imperial people, gathered on the vast plains, heard the latest announcement.
The mysterious person who teleported them here offered new terms.
After three minutes, the top fifty players with the longest accumulated time will have the opportunity to leave.
The moment this condition was announced, the imperial soldiers, nobles, and elites who had originally intended to kill their comrades for a few minutes of survival were all dumbfounded.
Because if this condition is followed, it means that there will be more than 99.9% casualties on site, and the number of survivors will be less than one in ten thousand.
Without a doubt, the powerful figure lurking in the shadows intends to wipe out almost all of the empire's fighting force here!
"Those who survive must be the strong ones..."
"Run! Run away! No matter what, we only have this one choice!"
"Aside from the hunters and powerful assassination squads, there must still be spots left! Those spots are mine!"
The Imperial soldiers had different ideas.
Some people planned to flee the scene, even if they would eventually return to the same spot, they still chose to take a step away;
Some decided to join the brawl in hopes of securing one of the remaining spots left by the stronger fighters, and thus rushed toward the vicinity.
Chaos erupted once again, and the battle of hundreds of thousands filled the plain with cries of agony and the sounds of clashing swords.
The stench of blood, carried by the howling wind, swept across the land. Esdeath, her brow furrowed, looked ahead.
There was only one hill there.
However, despite appearing very close, it is unreachable.
Because once you leave the plains, you will unconsciously walk back to the starting point under the guidance of some special force.
"Everyone... has gone completely mad."
Seryu looked around and saw nothing but infighting.
However, the area where they were located was relatively safe.
After all, the warriors of the Empire knew very well that the combined forces of General Bud and General Stedes were enough to crush everyone on the plains.
Not to mention the assembled hunter troops and wild hounds, along with the four demon Rakshasa, which led outsiders to believe that the area was the place of the ultimate victor.
Surrounded by the lieutenant general, the emperor looked around and asked the minister Ernest and General Budde beside him.
"Is there no way for us to escape?"
“Unfortunately, Your Majesty, I have sent people to investigate beyond the plains, but each time they return to the scene, it proves that this area is under the control of someone.”
"Who is the one?"
"I don't know... but he must be a very powerful guy, otherwise he couldn't have easily teleported hundreds of thousands of people from the Imperial 437 Kingdom."
General Bude looked around again. The soldiers in the chaos of battle still ignored the emperor and his entourage, only wanting to steal time from the others.
"This can't go on forever."
Black Eyes suddenly spoke.
Her right hand rested on the hilt of the knife.
"Sooner or later someone will exceed our time."
"That's right! Hey! Sheila! Go and capture a few of the people who have plenty of time!! Don't kill them directly, wait for His Majesty and me to deliver the final blow."
Upon hearing what Black Eyes said, Minister Ernest immediately gave orders to his son, Sheila.
Sheila did not refuse for the sake of the emperor.
Without saying a word, he led the Wild Hounds out.
Among the troops led by Sheila are Dortya, an alchemist who looks young and wears a cute long dress; and Kosmia, a witch who wears a suspender dress, rabbit ears, and holds a microphone.
Just as Sheila was about to order them not to kill indiscriminately, she found that the two figures were suddenly surrounded by chaos.
"Huh?! What?! What?!"
While Dortya was puzzled, Kosmia, who was in the same situation, used her ability to shatter the earth, but it was to no avail.
Three seconds later, Sheila watched helplessly as they were swallowed by the chaos and disappeared from the scene!
Puzzled, Sheila grabbed a few people and brought them back to the central area, only to find that Kurome and Seryu, who were with Esdeath, were also gone.
"Lord Ernest! Suzuka and the horse's head have been swallowed by darkness!!"
At this moment, two of the four Rakshasa demons spoke to Ernest, and their two female companions were also taken away by some unknown force!
However, Ernest didn't care about any of that, and instead quickly had everyone gather more time for him and the emperor.
Faced with this twisted chaos, General Bud looked at Esdeath.
"Aren't you worried about those two little girls suddenly disappearing?"
"Worrying won't help."
Esdeath, her brow slightly furrowed, calmly returned.
"What we really need to do is figure out how to break through the bizarre situation we are facing."
Do you have new plans?
“General Bud, you just heard that mysterious person explaining the new rules to us, which proves that they are very likely observing us near this plain, but that mysterious person is being protected by some force.”
"That's certainly a possibility..."
"Then we can try to find out who it is."
Esdeath walked forward.
She first targeted the hill closest to the plain.
"If consciousness can be affected by this plain, does that mean the power will be different?"
As Esdeath raised her right hand, the Imperial Arm mark on her chest, symbolizing the manifestation of the demon god's demonic essence, began to glow faintly.
The next instant, the surrounding air condensed into frost flowers!
Immediately afterwards, as if the ground had been torn apart by an invisible hand, countless sharp icicles rose up from the ground like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, breaking free of the earth's constraints and soaring into the sky with a deafening roar.
These icicles were not static; as if they were alive, they quickly intertwined to form several huge ice spikes, each powerful enough to pierce through a steel fortress.
Then, at Esdeath's command, these enormous ice spikes shot towards the hill like arrows released from a bow, with tremendous force.
Wherever they went, ice and snow raged, the earth cracked, and soldiers in the chaotic battle were frozen, encased, and blasted away!
However, Esdeath ignored all of this and intended to destroy the hill in her sight.
Before the devastating ice spikes could shatter the hill, a powerful force quietly descended.
The once unstoppable ice spikes suddenly came to a halt, as if they had encountered an invisible wall.
Immediately afterwards, the terrifying slashes and impacts shattered the ice spikes.
"really……"
Esdeath watched the melting and crumbling ice, her gaze falling towards the hills.
"Is the enemy there?"
"At least that hill responded."
In response to General Budo's gaze, Esdeath and the two-piece set of the Empire's strongest combined force charged straight ahead.
Baili watched the chaotic battle unfold before him, noting that the number of soldiers was rapidly dwindling.
During this period, Baili mobilized his forces to transfer those he was interested in to the Chaos Space.
"Those girls will be handed over to you for training; they might have other uses."
As Baili spoke, his gaze fell on Griffia.
The latter nodded and asked respectfully.
How many people are there?
"Six."
"I understand."
At this point in their conversation, Akame ran to Hyakuri's side.
"Was Black Eyes suddenly disappearing from the screen also due to Lord Baili's ability?"
“That’s right, I’ll see if she can make a difference.”
"Kuro-tomi... she received the Empire's education, and she's definitely still distorted. I'm afraid it won't be able to change her in a short time."
"If nothing changes, then there is no need for the proposal to exist. We can see how she performs afterward."
Baili had just surveyed the scene and collected all the girls he thought were worth nurturing.
If you can't change the distortion in your heart, you can only try other methods.
Back to the present, Mai Sakurajima and Asia, who were beside Baili, took a step forward.
The two noticed that amidst the chaos, a strikingly beautiful blue-haired female general was striding towards the hill where they were. (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
"Has it been discovered?"
(ccci) That's possible.
"But it's okay."
