"Don't talk about that, we need to leave immediately! All of the Empire's fighting force is concentrated here, and if they find us..."
"If he couldn't deal with the enemy, do you think Mr. Baili would deliberately bring them to his own doorstep? To invite trouble for himself? That's impossible."
Katagiri Yuzuki interrupted Mine's speech.
Looking at the little girl in front of her, Mine frowned.
"Aren't you scared?"
"Don't be afraid, because Mr. Baili is right here, and I also want to teach those bad guys a lesson!"
"My goal is the same as yours, but I am very self-aware."
Mine was well aware of her own abilities.
With the powerful figures of the empire gathered here, she didn't think she would survive if war broke out with them. (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)
"Hundreds of thousands of people, such a massive number, is simply beyond our ability to deal with..."
Leone had only one thought.
There are too many enemies.
Even if it were hundreds of thousands of pigs, it would take several days and nights to catch them, let alone the powerful imperial warriors who possess Imperial Arms.
In this respect, Hill, Chelsea, and Najendan reached the exact same conclusion.
Therefore, Akame took a step forward and asked Baili.
"Your Excellency Baili, how exactly do you intend to resolve the current problem?"
Akame's expression was serious, and she desperately wanted an answer.
She was also worried that if the group were discovered by the Imperial soldiers, they would have no chance of escaping.
Upon hearing this, Baili looked at the imperial crowd that filled the vast plains.
"As I said before, I will let them solve their own problems."
"What are the specific steps...?"
"You'll find out later."
After Baili finished speaking, he turned to look at the hundreds of thousands of people he had controlled and teleported over.
Next-
It's Star God's game time.
On the plain.
Following a massive relocation event, Imperial soldiers, high-ranking officers, and elite troops were all teleported to the scene.
"Where...where am I?!"
An imperial prince slumped to the ground, his eyes filled with confusion.
He had never seen such a desolate scene—no city walls, no palaces, not even a single intact stone.
All that filled my vision were crowds of people and the distant, upside-down stars.
Such a bizarre scene made the prince feel nauseous and want to vomit.
"Guards! Where are the maids?! Where are my slaves?!"
Then they heard a roar again.
A nobleman dressed in fine clothes held a bloodstained thorn whip in his hand.
It was clear that he had just been disciplining his slaves when he was swallowed up by a force and ended up here.
"What the hell?!"
Then came another cry of despair.
A man with disheveled clothes was surrounded by men and women who were also dressed in similarly disheveled attire...
They looked around in horror and confusion, realizing that this place was completely different from the luxurious villa they lived in, which left everyone stunned.
Faced with such a bizarre scene, the nobles were about to speak when they suddenly shut their mouths and knelt on the ground a second later.
Directly in front of these people, Minister Ernest appeared alongside the young emperor.
Upon seeing the two, the nobles, the princes, and the surrounding soldiers all knelt down.
"What on earth is going on! Someone come and explain this clearly!!"
Minister Ernest roared angrily
"It wasn't just me; how could I allow His Majesty to come to such a filthy place!"
After saying this, Minister Ernest kicked a soldier beside him to vent his anger.
Someone quickly provided an answer.
"Nobody knows what happened."
"Oh! Isn't that General Bud? Let's get out of here quickly!"
To Minister Ernest's right, amidst the parted crowd, stood General Bud, one of the Empire's strongest men, a tall figure.
Upon seeing Bud, the emperor hurriedly ran over.
"Bud!"
"I'm sorry to have startled you, Your Majesty."
"I'm fine. Minister Ernest has been protecting me."
"Is it……"
Upon hearing this, Bud glanced at Ernest out of the corner of his eye.
He was the supreme commander of the Imperial Army, deeply trusted by the emperor, and was responsible for leading the palace guards. He served the empire wholeheartedly, with protecting the young emperor being his top priority.
Faced with this sudden change, Bud, feeling guilty, wants to find out what happened.
The first person Bud suspected was Ernest.
Although Bude followed ancestral teachings that military generals should not interfere in politics, he was aware of the corrupt practices of ministers and others but did not take action.
But this unusual situation has led to growing suspicions that Ernest may have done something to eliminate the entire upper echelons of the empire and ultimately seize power for himself.
However, Bud quickly thought of another point...
With Ernest now wielding immense power, he could do anything by controlling the Emperor, except for himself and Esdeath. It would be impossible for Ernest to take such a risky move.
Noticing the suspicious look in Bud's eyes, Ernest quickly explained...
"This incident has nothing to do with me. I'm also very confused right now. I wonder if General Bud has any answers?"
"No."
Bud, who had joined the emperor, shook his head.
After being transported here by the darkness and chaos, Bud thought about leaving the scene and going to a nearby high place to take a look, but found that he could not get out of the plain at all.
This place is like a super-large maze barrier that can hold hundreds of thousands of people.
"It might be the ability of some kind of Imperial Arm, but that's just speculation. After all, Imperial Arms generally can't selectively transfer people from the Empire."
Bud looked around and saw mostly imperial soldiers, high-ranking officials, nobles, and elite troops; there were almost no commoners.
"Ah! Dad!"
The shouts rang out again.
Ernest looked to his left and saw Sheila, the minister's son, come into view.
Not only him, but also the Wild Hounds, led by him, were with Sheila.
"I've told you so many times, don't call me that."
"Ahem... Minister Onetus, it seems you've been teleported here as well as we have."
After Sheila changed her tune, she spread her hands, indicating that she knew nothing at the moment.
The wild hounds following him were also very confused, not knowing why they had been teleported.
Before the words were even finished, the four demons, who were the minister's private executioners, arrived at the scene.
They did not communicate with the minister, but instead stood guard in four directions, vigilantly watching their surroundings to ensure the minister's safety.
Minister Ernest, having noticed this, felt somewhat relieved, but then looked at General Bud again.
"Well, General Bud, now that we have enough manpower, let us leave here. As for the reason why we were teleported here, we can talk about it later."
"I would like to investigate this thoroughly now to prevent such an accident from happening again, but... for His Majesty's safety, it's best to evacuate first."
After Bud finished speaking, he pulled the emperor away from Minister Ernest and placed him protectively beside him.
Ernest clicked his tongue inwardly and quickly followed Bud's footsteps.
Upon seeing this, the soldiers and nobles around them quickly moved as well.
After all, in their eyes, General Bud was no different from a savior.
But after advancing less than twenty meters, a voice reached everyone's ears.
[The game begins now. Once the countdown above your heads ends, you will be swallowed by chaos.]
what?
However, eliminating one person will extend the time by five seconds.
As Bude looked on in confusion, he saw a countdown above his head and the emperor's.
The number above is 20.
It's now 19...
It wasn't just them; hundreds of thousands of people around them were in the same boat!
However, some people have even fewer numbers, counting down directly from 5.
Before they could react, the five-second countdown ended, and thousands of people were instantly torn apart and swallowed by darkness, disappearing into the void!
This is real!
