"Did the other party really say that?"

The boss of the night raid, Nadezhda, sat on a chair and looked at Maine in front of her, who nodded indignantly.

"That's right, Boss. The man said we were not professional enough, so he had no intention of cooperating!"

At this point, Mayin was also very angry. The next day, Fang Zheng sent her and Hill out of the city, and then the two returned to the Night Raid's base. Mayin also reported what happened yesterday to the other members of the Night Raid. After learning that they had finally contacted those elusive death gods, the other members of the Night Raid were also very excited, but what Mayin brought back was not good news...

"There is actually such an organization..."

Nadezhda was also silent, frowning and thinking. Although Nadezhda was currently the leader of the Night Raid and one of the representatives of the Revolutionary Army, she was also a general in the Imperial Army. However, Nadezhda had never heard of the existence of such a group of assassins. But now it seems that they do exist.

"Main, do you think what the other party said makes sense?"

Looking at Maine who was complaining to her partner, Najeta asked, but when Maine heard Najeta's question, her face suddenly changed.

“Uh… this…”

To be honest, Marin really wanted to say, "That's totally wrong. We are also very good at night raids!"

But recalling the previous battles and the scene on the execution ground, she really couldn't say such words against her conscience.

"In fact, I also think that what the other party said is right."

"Boss?!"

Hearing this, the others looked at Nadezhda in surprise, while Nadezhda smiled bitterly.

Although Maine relayed Fang Zheng's words in an indignant tone, Nadezhda knew very well that the other party had completely seen through the weakness of their night raid.

That is, "Isn't it just using the imperial tool to bully people?"

Yes, in fact, the nature of the Night Raid is like this. Nadezhda was once an officer, and she certainly knows the importance of discipline in an organization, but others are different. In the Night Raid, except for Akame, Brand and Lubbock, who were once imperial soldiers, all others were born civilians. The reason they appeared here was entirely because they had imperial tools.

But in other respects, it is simply impossible for them to act like a military.

All along, the reason why Night Raid's operations have been successful is largely due to their possession of super-powerful imperial weapons, and even if their enemies have strong abilities, they cannot be compared with imperial weapons. Since imperial weapons are very person-dependent, only "qualified people" can use them, and others cannot use them at all, which also makes Night Raid seem to be cheating in battle - it's as if everyone is a player of the same level, but they can hold epic weapons, while the opponent can only be elite or legendary at most.

Apart from anything else, the damage they inflict is different.

Nadezhda had always been worried that there would be problems with the night raid, and this was proven to be the case.

Last night, Maine and Ciel suffered a severe blow in the battle with the imperial weapon holder... This is not surprising, but...

"Do you know?"

Nadezhda raised her head and looked at the other members of the night raid.

"When I came back from the Revolutionary Army, my superiors gave me an order to contact these... assassins at all costs."

At this point, Nadezhda seemed a little depressed.

"They have already accomplished what we have not been able to do during our night raids for so long. Think about it, they have only been in the imperial capital for less than a month, but now, the entire imperial capital is almost at a standstill."

The Imperial Capital is the capital of the empire. It goes without saying what the cessation of the capital's operations means to the entire country. Esdeath is currently on a conquest in another country and cannot return for the time being. The stagnation of the Imperial Capital's functions has also slowed down other parts of the empire. Under such circumstances, the progress of the Revolutionary Army has also become much smoother. Therefore, they are eager to contact those "Death Gods" and preferably get them to join the Revolutionary Army. In this way, their victory will be just around the corner.

But now it seems that the other side is not interested in the revolutionary army.

Nadezhda was also very disappointed, because this was supposed to be a night raid mission, but unexpectedly it was completed by an unknown organization, and the other party was not fighting for the Revolutionary Army...

But this can't go on like this.

This has to change.

"Main."

Thinking of this, Nadezhda made up her mind. She raised her head and looked at Main.

"I have a very important task for you."

"yes!"

Hearing what Nadezhda said, Main's expression became serious.

"Whatever the mission is, I will complete it!"

Ma Yin said so and did so, but...

"What are you doing back again?"

Fang Zheng folded his arms and looked at Ma Yin in front of him, but this time the person behind her was not Hill, the girl with glasses and wearing a cheongsam, but a girl with long black hair, wearing a sailor suit and holding a samurai sword.

“Woo…”

Faced with Fang Zheng's question, Ma Yin was speechless. She gritted her teeth and hesitated for a moment before speaking.

“We want to learn…”

"study?"

"Yes, this is what Boss meant..."

At this point, Mayin was also depressed. She originally thought that Najeta was going to assign her some tasks, but what Mayin didn't expect was that the other party actually wanted her to find these assassins and learn from them! This made Mayin very upset. After all, she had just made a harsh statement in front of Fang Zheng, saying that "night attacks are the strongest", but now she turned around and wanted to learn from him...

"Well, it doesn't matter."

Fang Zheng shrugged his shoulders. He really didn't care. Assassin's Creed was not as simple as an ordinary organization or force. When they understood it, they would know what they really wanted to do.

"If you want to join the Assassins, you can... Well, who is this?"

Fang Zheng already knew Ma Yin's name, but he didn't know the name of the girl with black hair and red eyes beside her.

"Red pupil."

The black-haired girl looked at Fang Zheng and silently gave her name.

"So you are here to observe, learn, and see how we act?"

"Yes... that's right."

Ma Yin nodded with a bitter face. After all, she had just turned around and left in the morning, with an expression that said, "I will never come back to see you even if you kill me." But in less than half a day, she was already really attracted to him...

"You've come at the right time. In fact, we have an assassin who is going to be promoted to a master today. You can also come and watch our ceremony."

"ceremony?"

Hearing this, Ma Yin was stunned for a moment, but Fang Zheng did not say anything else. He just turned around, pushed open the door, and walked towards the depths of the sewer. Seeing this scene, Ma Yin hesitated for a moment, then pulled Chi Tong, and the two followed Fang Zheng into the dark sewer.

“When was this passage built?”

Looking at the sewer in front of her, Marin felt a little confused. She was sure that this was not something that had existed before. After all, Night Raid also had a map of the imperial capital. She knew very well that if there was such a sewer in the imperial capital, it would have been closed long ago.

"I bought it with my own money. It cost me a lot of money before."

Fang Zheng complained silently, and Mayin was even more speechless.

“Spend money…?”

Can this sewer be bought with money?

It was a little unbelievable to Ma Yin, and in fact it was also unbelievable to Fang Zheng.

In the Assassin's Creed game, players can enable fast teleportation mode by purchasing a sewer door in an area. Of course, in reality, no one would sell this thing to you at a fixed price, but Fang Zheng discovered that as long as he paid enough money to buy some shops or houses, a new sewer passage would appear in the area for fast teleportation, as if Fang Zheng had really spent money to open an underground passage himself.

This is also one of the characteristics of this soul stone.

Soon, the three of them arrived in front of a big door. Fang Zheng pushed it open and walked in. Ma Yin and Chi Tong looked at each other and followed him into the door.

Inside the gate was a place that looked like a meeting hall. A bright red carpet stretched from under their feet all the way to the end in front. On both sides of the carpet, Myne and Chitong saw several figures wearing the same robes as Fang Zheng standing there quietly.

Fang Zheng gestured for the two to stand aside, then he walked to the brazier at the end of the carpet and stood in front of it.

"Teacher, we are ready."

"Um."

Fang Zheng nodded, then turned around. Then, a figure in a white cloak slowly walked over along the carpet. She walked in front of Fang Zheng, stretched out her hand to her chest, and bowed respectfully to Fang Zheng.

"Laa shay'a waqi'un moutlaq bale kouloun moumkine."

Fang Zheng returned the greeting, and then Iyeas beside him reached out and took out a red-hot pair of tongs from the brazier, and the other party also raised the ring finger of his right hand. Fang Zheng stared at the girl in front of him, and then spoke.

"When others blindly pursue the truth, remember..."

"Everything is empty."

The girl lowered her head and responded in a low voice.

"When others are subject to moral or legal constraints, remember that ..."

"Everything is permitted."

The assassins lowered their heads and chanted softly, while looking at this scene, Ma Yin and Akato seemed a little dazed. Although they didn't know the meaning of these words, they instinctively felt that this seemed to be a completely different style from their night raids.

“We walk in darkness and serve the light.”

Fang Zheng raised his head.

"We are... assassins."
