Taking advantage of the darkness, Lan Se also quietly changed into her hunter suit. Although her defense was not very good, it was at least lighter. Moreover, it was better to use Stealth than armor, right? After all, his main mission this time was to go into Stealth mode, and his Clairvoyance skill was pretty good. Although it was not like in the game where he could automatically lock onto the Boss's location, his enhanced vision was still very helpful.
As the soldiers at the main gate were eyeing them covetously, there were not many defenders in the other directions. Lan Se used her clairvoyance ability to easily find a position with a longer patrol interval.
Although Lan Se did not have any Ninjas under her command, she had killed quite a number of them along the way. Lan Se had also found quite a few useful items from them, such as the Flying Claws.
Although it was his first time using it, he was already proficient in throwing. He had no problem throwing flying knives and rocks. After two tries, he always hooked it well.
However, there was trouble again. He had no idea how the entire city wall was built, and there were almost no gaps. Then, he could only hold the rope with one hand and use the short sword with the other hand. As for the two blades that he used, they were naturally modified from Sickle Crab materials. After all, the only ones with higher slashing power in the Lower Realm were the Exploding Dragon series. However, the most powerful weapon in the Lower Realm needed to be upgraded again, so he was using the Sickle Crab Dual Swords now.
After quietly climbing up the city wall, he first confirmed that he had not been discovered. After observing and making sure that there was no one around, he quietly used the Flying Claw to descend into the city wall again. Then, he began to summon the soldiers.
When a full 200 people appeared in the city, they could not hide anymore. After all, there were too many people. The remaining space in Heavensguard Tower was not that big. Lan Se simply led her people to attack directly.
When Yuan Shura expressed his goodwill, he was not sure if the Oda family was eating and that they would not attack the city for the time being. He was relieved and returned to his residence to prepare for dinner. However, he heard the sound of fighting halfway through dinner.
"What's wrong? Is the Oda family attacking again?" However, he did not pay too much attention to the Ashikaga clan's progress since he had learned from Ashu Kigami that it was going smoothly. After all, this kind of probing attack was meaningless. It would only exhaust the strength and stamina of both sides.
"My lord! Not good!"
However, after eating a few mouthfuls, his subordinate rushed in.
" What's wrong?!" Normally, if someone dared to barge in like this while he was eating, he would definitely get his subordinates to cut them down. However, his heart was tense now, and he had no time to care.
"That 'Ghost Warrior' suddenly appeared in the city and is attacking the city gate with more than two hundred soldiers! I'm afraid…I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for long!”
"What?!"
……
Although what she told him was the truth, what she didn't say was that even though the Viper Oil Field had an advantage in the battle, based on the number of soldiers consumed, there would probably be no more soldiers left to attack the Oda family.
Therefore, she had basically given up on the idea of the Oda family taking the initiative to retreat.
However, she was not very worried about her own safety. After the Viper Oil Field was taken down, the general named Lan Se did not launch a major purge. Instead, she let the daughter of the original city lord take over. Although she did not like to admit defeat, she could only choose to surrender in a helpless situation. After all, as long as she was alive, everything was possible.
As for Yuan Changshi? He did not think that the other party would let him off. After all, letting go of women and children could be said to not like killing, but letting go of the ruler of an enemy country? That was simply stupid. Even if that man let him go, the Oda family's retainers would probably not let him go, right?
'That idiot Yuan Changshi! I really misjudged him!
As she thought about her hatefully, she tidied up her clothes. After all, even if the city gates were breached later, she still needed to maintain the dignity of the daughter of the Ashikaga family.
However, at this moment, she heard a series of hurried footsteps. After hearing the footsteps, she could not help but frown. Who else would come at this time? Those ignorant maids had also run away long ago. How stupid. Didn't they know that it was better to stay by her side than to escape to the chaotic city? He deserved to die later.
However, at this moment, the door was roughly opened.
"Changshi! What are you doing here? " Didn't you say..." She didn't expect Yuan Changshi, who had just left, to come back. Moreover, his condition seemed a little off, especially the tachi on his waist, which made her hair stand on end. However, considering that they were still in a state of war, she forced herself not to think of the worst.
"Ah Shu! You love me, right?"
"Huh? Yes! I love you!" Although she didn't know what was wrong with him, she chose to go along with him when considering the current situation.
"I love you too! But it seems that the Oda family doesn't have much time left for us! I wonder where that guy sneaked into Heavensguard Pavilion with his men. Now that the gate has been broken through, he's probably coming over soon, right? Unfortunately, if he had known about the situation with the Ashikaga clan a few days earlier, he might have been able to change the situation.”At this point, he could not help but shake his head.
"Since the Oda family is about to attack, why are you here?”
"No, I can't! I just feel that I have no regrets marrying you in this life.”
"Is that so?" Although the other party's feelings for her could be said to be deep, she realized that she was regretting it more and more. How did she fall for such a man in the first place?
"That's right, but it's precisely because of this that I'm here to complete my final duty.”
After he finished speaking, he pulled out the long saber at his waist under Ah Shuji's incredulous gaze.
"It's an insult to you that your life was taken away by the enemy! That's why I won't allow it to happen! Then let me explain it to you.(When a Japanese samurai performs harakiri, there will usually be someone beside him to help cut off the head of the harakiri. This way, the harakiri will not suffer too much.) Then I will commit suicide and follow you.”After saying that, he handed a shorter tachi to Ah Shuji.
"No, I can't! I refuse! Why? Why do I have to commit suicide because of your mistake?”
"Ah Shu?" Yuan Changshi never thought that the woman he loved would speak to him like this.
"Although I am your wife, I am also the princess of the Ashikaga family! Even if it was to threaten my brother, the Oda family would never kill me! So please go on your own, for the dignity of the Yuan Family.”
"Haha! You're not…you're not Ah Shuji! That's right! You're definitely not her! Speak! Who are you? Where did you hide my Ah Shu Ji? Ah!" After saying that, he pulled out his weapon and slashed down.
However, he was best at archery. His tachi was more of a decoration. After becoming the head of the Yuan family, he slacked off. Now, even a young man who had just become a samurai could defeat him, right?
However, it was also because of the degeneration of his body that Ah Shuji managed to avoid being slashed by the other party. Although her kimono had been slashed by the other party, she could not care less now.
"It's all your fault! That's right, it's all you! You were the one who pretended to be my favorite Aki and then tempted me to declare war on the Oda family! You are a spy for the Oda family! You…"
Ah Shuji quickly tore off her tattered kimono and ran to hide behind the dressing table. However, the dressing table could not stop Yuan Changshi from going crazy. Like a madman, he only wanted to destroy the things in front of him. He even completely abandoned Ah Shuji and chopped the dressing table before continuing to chase after her.
"I was the one who told you to declare war on the Oda family! But weren't you the one who gave the final order?”
"You…you witch! It's all because of you that the Yuan Family is finished! I'm finished too! I'm going to kill you!"
As if he had been stabbed by something, he roared and drew his saber before charging forward.
"Oh, killed? Wouldn't that be a pity? If you don't want it, give it to me!"
No one expected Lan Se to suddenly appear in front of them.
"Who is it? " You are…" It was obvious that although Ah Shuji had heard of Lan Se's name, she did not know him at all. However, she would probably have to remember him after today.
"Oda's 'ghost'?" Yuan Changshi's expression was extremely ugly, and his expression had even changed. However, he knew the difference in their combat strength. He had been defeated in the area he was best at, not to mention the saber technique that he was not good at.
"Save me! The general of the Oda family! Please save me! I am the princess of the Ashikaga clan! As long as I'm alive, my brother won't dare to continue attacking the Viper Oil Field!”They were clearly enemies, but Ah Shuji shouted at Lan Se as if she had seen her savior.
Unfortunately, Lan Se did not even look at him. Instead, she looked at Yuan Changshi with a strange smile.
"It's me, but you choose. Do you want to be captured by me or be defeated by me and then tied up by me?”
"Bastard! Do you think you have me? Even if I can't kill you! But don't even think about it…"
However, Lan Se had seen too many bosses who liked to go offline. She did not wait for him to continue talking nonsense before she took out a strange-looking short sword and slashed at him. Then, under Ah Shuji's terrified gaze, Yuan Changshi fell to the ground.
"Humph! My Great Death Paralysis is the strongest Paralysis attribute weapon in the Lower Realm!”Lan Se laughed as she walked towards Ah Shuji.
"Are you Ah Shuji, the one that guy from West City wants me to kill? Didn't it look like what he said?”
"West City? Do you think that guy's words are worth believing? He was the man who betrayed Yuan Changshi! Since he had betrayed her once, he would definitely betray her a second time!”
It was obvious that Ah Shuji had also remembered what she had instigated Yuan Changshi to do, but even if she remembered, she did not intend to explain anything. Instead, he chose to pour dirty water on West City. After all, this was the only way for him to have a higher chance of survival.
"Oh? From what you said, it's indeed possible.”
Hearing Lan Se's tone, Ah Shuji quickly added.
"That's right…"
"But what does this have to do with you? I'll send someone to monitor that guy, but do you think I'll let you off? If I remember correctly, you were the mastermind behind the Yuan family's declaration of war against the Oda family, right?”Lan Se did not hesitate to interrupt him and then gave him a strange smile.
"What are you trying to do? You can't kill me! If you kill me, my brother won't let you off!”Looking at the slowly approaching Shuji, she realized that the other party was not her savior at all. Instead, she had just escaped from the wolf's den and entered the tiger's den.
"No, I can't! No! No matter what your brother thinks, I don't intend to let him off. But why would I kill you? I'm planning to try many things on you that I've never tried before.”After saying that, Lan Se clapped her hands. Following that, Fenghua, who was holding the jade stick, walked in with a few Zu Qing and warriors.
"Fenghua, take this man away and look after him. Also, tell the people monitoring West City to be careful. Tonight, they will patrol according to the previous arrangements. If there is nothing important, don't disturb me.”
"Yes."
Lan Se heaved a sigh of relief as she watched Fenghua leave. To be honest, she had always been afraid that the favorability on her stats window would drop. She did not want to repeat the embarrassing incident with Chaotic Ball, but perhaps this kind of thing was normal in this era. Or perhaps Fenghua, who had lost her memory, did not have any opinion on these things.
Regardless of the reason, it was good news that his favorability was not deducted.
However, he was too lazy to think about other things now. After all, there was a little white sheep waiting for him!
