Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 966 Night Attack
The staff of Sharp Blade was replenished, and it still maintained the original size of ten people.

Esdeath led them in a large-scale sweep. Her target was the imperial intelligence forces hiding in the dark.

Starting from City 1, Esdeath found the locations of those intelligence bases one by one based on the clues provided by the captured intelligence officers. However, her actions did not go as smoothly as expected.

After clearing out two strongholds, Esdeath discovered that the remaining intelligence forces had been moved in advance.

These intelligence officers were not ordinary people. They knew that if their actions failed, their positions might be exposed. Therefore, in order to avoid possible risks, they chose to move their base, leaving Esdeath empty-handed.

In the process of waiting and verifying the intelligence, Esdeath had given these intelligence forces enough time to transfer. This also made her realize her own shortcomings in intelligence collection and analysis.

Then she remembered the lesson and never made the same mistake again next time!
In the original plot, Esdeath also grew very quickly and became more and more difficult to deal with each time. Her talents and abilities in combat-related aspects are unparalleled.

Although this sweep yielded nothing, Esdeath keenly sensed a strong murderous intent.

This murderous intent came from some unknown corner.

It’s just that the opponent didn’t choose to take action in the end, which made Esdeath feel a little regretful.

At the same time, on another rooftop in the city, Leone and a reincarnation were lying on the edge of the roof, observing the movements in the distance.

"Is that... Esdeath?"

Her imperial weapon, the Lion King's Belt, grants her bestial instincts and perceptions.

After sensing Esdeath's breath, she was instantly shocked by the powerful aura, her body involuntarily tensed up and she was unable to move.

Although the reincarnationist next to him knew this plot, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw Leone's nervous reaction.

He thought to himself that although the Lion King's belt was powerful, it seemed to have its drawbacks. When encountering a powerful and dangerous enemy, if the user could not remain calm and rational, the power of this imperial weapon would be greatly reduced.

Thinking of this, the Reincarnationist's original plan to take advantage of the opportunity to attack Leone and seize the imperial weapon was quietly dispelled.

As time went by, Leone's face gradually recovered from its paleness, and she took a deep breath, as if to exhale all the fear and tension just now.

Her eyes were full of confusion, and she obviously had not fully understood what had just happened.

"We are actually going to kill such a monster?"

She muttered to herself, her voice revealing her deep fear of Esdeath's strength.

In her eyes, Esdeath was like an insurmountable gap and an invincible enemy.

However, now she was told that this seemingly invincible enemy had been defeated by Noxus.

"And such a monster was defeated by Noxus?"

Leone repeated it again, her tone full of disbelief.

In her opinion, an existence like Esdeath should be invincible. How could she be defeated by an organization like Noxus? This was simply like a fairy tale.

However, the facts were before her, and she had to accept this reality. However, the doubts in her heart did not dissipate, but became even stronger.

"But why is she able to move freely?"

Leone frowned, her eyes flickering with thought.

In her opinion, if Esdeath was really defeated by Noxus, then she should be under strict surveillance. How could she be able to move freely?

This question troubled Leone and she couldn't let it go.

However, she knew that now was not the time to dwell on this issue. The most important thing now was to tell the boss about Esdeath's whereabouts so that the organization could be prepared to deal with it. So, she immediately told Najeshitan about Esdeath.

Najeshitan was the person she trusted the most.

She believed that Najeshitan would understand the importance of this information and would make corresponding arrangements.

Sure enough, Najeshitan immediately became serious after hearing the news.

She was well aware of Esdeath's importance to the empire, and also understood what this information meant to the organization.

"We must act now!"

Najeshitan said decisively, with a determined light in her eyes.

"Even though Esdeath was defeated, we cannot let our guard down. After all, she is the empire's trump card. If she regains her strength, she will be a huge threat to us."

Najeshitan began to think of countermeasures quickly.

She knew that it would take great strength to deal with Esdeath, and although every member of the organization was an elite, in order to defeat an enemy like Esdeath, she would need a more careful plan and even greater strength.

During this process, Najshita began to think about why Esdeath could move freely.

She felt that this problem was not that simple and there must be some deep-seated reasons behind it.

"It's impossible that Noxus has no means of controlling Esdeath at all."

Najeshitan said to herself.

"They must have a way to control Esdeath so that she can't regain her strength."

These thoughts gave her a deeper understanding of Esdeath's situation.

"Is Noxus planning to use Esdeath to fish?"

Najeshitan suddenly realized.

"They deliberately let Esdeath move freely in order to attract the Empire's spies and assassins to rescue her. In this way, they can follow the clues and find the Imperial spies lurking in Noxus, and then solve the chaos caused by the Empire's previous actions."

"That way, they can eliminate all the enemies lurking in Noxus at once."

Najeshitan was very impressed.

She felt that Noxus' response and strategy were excellent, not only addressing the internal threat, but also cleverly using Esdeath as bait.

At the same time, she also felt a little relieved.

Fortunately, they discovered this information in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous when Esdeath recovered her strength.

Leone suddenly realized what was going on: "I see! This is a really sinister plan."

Najeshita nodded. "That's right. However, this is also our opportunity. We can use this opportunity to get rid of Esdeath, our biggest threat, in one fell swoop."

So they began to develop a detailed assassination plan.

They knew that this operation would be extremely dangerous, because although Esdeath was weakened, she was still an extremely powerful enemy. But they also knew that only by taking risks can they succeed.
