There was no one in the study, so Anastasia pushed the door open and walked in, found a chair and sat down, and Esthers also walked in.

"Sister Anna, why did you come to me today?"

After sitting down next to Anastasia, Esdeth, who couldn't stay idle, asked aloud, with deep curiosity in his words.

Anastasia, who was holding the doll, shook her head, "I don't know, but Uncle Kong Ming never does things without purpose."

Although Estes didn't get a result, he didn't feel impatient. He folded his newly slender legs and waited silently with his elbows on the table.

Not long after, Zhuge Kongming walked in quickly with a goose feather fan.

"Sorry, I had some business to deal with just now, that idiot Iskandar always messed up the details of some things."

"It's okay, we didn't wait long." Anastasia responded with a smile, "But what does Uncle Kong Ming need to ask Esdeth?"

Estes didn't speak, and directly cast his eyes on Zhuge Kongming standing in the center of the study, various possibilities emerged in his mind.

"Do you want to ask about the current situation of the Baluts tribe? Or do you need to entrust any hunting missions for dangerous species? But it seems that these things should be discussed with my father..."

Just as Estes was guessing, Zhuge Kongming, who was shaking his lupine, turned his head to look at her.

Although it was a candidate recommendation from the old man of the mountain, Zhuge Kongming actually still had a lot of doubts in his heart.

Can this underage girl in front of her really be able to shoulder such a heavy task?But other than that, there is no better choice.

"Hey, the old man of the mountain can trust people with his eyes, and I also saw the extraordinaryness of this little girl with my forensic eyes."

The silent Zhuge Kongming finally made up his mind, walked up to Esdeth, and announced loudly:

"I'll get straight to the point. I've come to you this time for only one purpose, and that is to let you break into the core of power in the capital of the empire as a secret!"

ps: Well, the entire imperial capital is full of undercover agents, silently mourning for the poor minister...

ps: Please recommend a ticket

Chapter 380 The Seventh General’s Plan

"Anzi? Want to break into the power center of the empire?"

Estes was taken aback, but an interested smile appeared on his face.

"Due to the recent drastic changes in the upper echelons of the empire, our comrades who have entered the imperial capital have been unable to access valuable information. This 'general' plan is proposed to open up a new situation!"

Zhuge Kongming's words are simple and straightforward. As the direct planner of the plan, he has unparalleled confidence in the success of the plan.

"As for the specifics of the plan, here I can only give a brief overview, that is, through the army, people can gain a lot of military merits to be promoted quickly. The time from soldier to general is tentatively set at two years."

"It seems that you should have prepared sufficient plans, but why is this very important candidate me?"

Estes was curious about this. In her opinion, her own strength was nothing in Liangshan City where monsters gathered, and there were many people who were more qualified for latent tasks than her.

Let’s not talk about it far away, just sister Anastasia sitting across from her.

The noble temperament emanates from the inside, and one can easily mix into the ranks of the high-ranking nobles without much dressing up, and most of the power of the empire is also in the hands of these people, so it is really easy to inquire about the news.

In addition, Uncle Cu Chulainn is also a rare warrior on the battlefield. If he joins the imperial army, he will definitely open up the situation very quickly. It is estimated that he will be promoted to the imperial general and enter the upper class of the imperial capital in just three or two battles.

Although Estes has an arrogant and stubborn personality and never easily admit defeat to others, he is also very self-aware of his ability and will not do things beyond his control.

"You were recommended to me by the Old Man of the Mountain. He thinks that you can accomplish this project well."

Zhuge Kongming obviously understood the doubts in Esdeth's words, and smiled and gave some explanations to dispel the doubts in the girl's heart.

"And because you are pure enough, such a person will generally not arouse others' suspicion, and this is precisely the most important thing for a lurker."

Without waiting for Estes to ask, Zhuge Kongming found a chair and sat down, then continued:

"At the same time, the others have more or less already met the Empire's General Liwa, and these restless guys who like to behave indiscriminately can't be lurkers."

Zhuge Kongming explained this on the surface, but he sighed heavily in his heart, feeling that the heroic spirits are too individual.

Needless to say, the man on the mountain will go away after Hassan, Iskandar is full of conquest, Qianzi Village is obsessed with sword casting, Lu Bu Fengxian is an out-and-out fighting madman, Anastasia Ya is as cold as an iceberg to people she doesn't know well, and Cu Chulainn has always had bad luck.

The last time Gouzi was sent out to detect an enemy situation, all of them could be exposed due to a broken branch. When it was the turn of this more demanding latent work, Zhuge Kongming was the first to screen out Cu Chulainn.

Otherwise, ghosts don't know what kind of magical posture this guy will use to screw up the mission.

"Hey, it's not easy to lead a team." Qi Qiran, the military adviser, sighed in a low voice, "Sure enough, there are still too few people available..."

After listening to Zhuge Kongming's answer, Esdeth also expressed her understanding, except that she did not expect Lord Alsace's nomination, other aspects were almost the same as what she had expected.

"No problem, I've accepted this task, only challenging things are worth doing!"

Zhuge Kongming was not surprised by this, because Esdes himself was not a cowardly person, and the military master could see this very clearly.

"This plan must be kept strictly confidential. You can only tell your father Bartos at most, and you must keep it secret from other people."

Estes felt Zhuge Kongming's kindness, but shook his head in rejection.

"No, the secret plan has to look like a secret plan. I will leave a letter saying that I have gone out to practice, and my father won't take care of it."

Hearing Esdes's answer, Zhuge Kongming didn't say anything more.

"Well, go back and pack your luggage now. Tomorrow, you will take the caravan to the imperial capital of the empire. There will be someone there who will arrange everything in advance and send you into the army."

"In the early stage of the plan, you can stay in the barracks to train and fight. Miss Mata Hari will open a tavern in the imperial capital. If you have any news or needs, you can go to her."

Estes kept Zhuge Kongming's words firmly in his heart, and then got up to say goodbye and left with Anastasia.

Leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Anastasia stopped and turned to look at Esdesh behind her, and sighed.

"Hey, I knew Estes that you would definitely agree to this matter. Is it because of the Hiram incident last time?"

Seeing Anastasia's worried expression, Estes laughed and walked over and patted the princess on the shoulder.

"Sister Anna still understands me. There are some reasons for this, but in the end I still want to do it myself. The blood debt owed to me by the empire to the Baluts must be paid back by myself to make sense!"

Listening to Estes' sonorous oath, Anastasia realized that she no longer needed to persuade her too much, so she encouraged her with a smile:

"I knew it would be like this, Estes is careful in everything, when you come back, my sister will buy you a drink, and then we sisters will get drunk again!!"

After hearing this, Estes, who was still in high spirits just now, turned pale. She looked at the prince who was so excited that she seemed to be about to take out tons of vodka. Alcohol horror.

"Okay... okay... I will definitely have a drink with Sister Anna!" Esdeth said bravely.

When talking about drinking, Anastasia, who was usually cold and cold, seemed to have changed, and her enthusiasm was like a raging flame.

"Okay! That's it. I remember that you still like drinking oolong tea. You can drink as much as you want by then."

Seeing Anastasia's smiling face, Esdeth nodded with a few drops of cold sweat on his white forehead.

Anastasia stretched out her finger and poked Esdeath's flaky cheek. The girl with a bit of a black-bellied little devil character had already noticed Esdece's strangeness, but she just didn't say anything.

"Haha, she is really my good sister, so I won't tease you."

Estes breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the words. As an alcoholic Baluts, it was the first time in her history that she was so afraid of drinking with others.

Along the flat streets paved with bluestones, the young girls walking together were chatting and laughing. From time to time, they uttered silver bell-like laughter to attract the attention of passers-by, but there was always a moment when the road was finished.

Standing at a fork in the road, Estes stopped, stepped forward to hug Anastasia, and said:

"Sister Anna, I have to hurry up and go back to pack my luggage, let's part here."

For a while, Anastasia, who was very talkative before, became silent, but still whispered something in Esdece's ear.

"Must, come back safely."

ps: Ask for a recommendation ticket...

ps: Next, it's time to jump time and enter the timeline of Zhan Tong anime. When I talk about this, I think of Tatsumi's friend and childhood sweetheart who died really badly.

Chapter 380 Eight Assassin Assassination Squad Begins

Late at night, Beicheng, Imperial Mountain.

In the misty night, the vigorous and agile figures quietly climbed over the city wall and invaded the capital of Shanbei County.

Shanbei County, located in the north of the empire's territory, is the only way for the northern border and other places to go south to the imperial capital, and has extremely important strategic significance.

Under the leadership of Zhuge Kongming and Iskandar, the Liangshan uprising army successfully brought the northern border, northern border, northeast county and northwest county of the empire under absolute control in six years, and the next step is to continue to attack the south .

Therefore, this Shanbei County has become the new target of Zhuge Kongming's black hand calculations, and it is a key node in advancing his uprising plan.

In order not to provoke the sensitive nerves of the high-level officials of the imperial capital too much, Zhuge Kongming still had the idea of ​​secretly controlling, and wanted to take Shanbei County silently, preferably without bloodshed.

As the invincible sharp knife in the hands of the great military division, the Assassin Order took over the task duty-bound.

And this crucial task has also become the last graduation assessment for the new generation of Assassins by the Shadow Lantern Hassans.

That's right, the group responsible for carrying out the mission is not the generations of Hassan, but the novices such as Chitong and Nahaxiu who have gone through six years of cruel training.

The new-generation Assassin team has a total of eight people, three men and five women, and each of them was assigned a task objective in this assessment.

The eight assassination targets are scattered in various parts of Shanbei City, so this assassination mission must be completed by a single person independently, and there is no room for opportunism.

Climbing and jumping from the towering city wall, the moment Chitong landed on the ground, he rolled and pounced forward. After removing the impact from his body, his legs kicked and rushed into the shadow of the house. All movements were completed as quickly as flowing clouds and flowing water. .

The hidden girl vigilantly scouted the surrounding area, and after confirming that there was no one nearby, she ran in the street in the right direction.

Her mission target this time is the sheriff of Shanbei City.

In order to deal with emergencies in the city, the sheriff usually sleeps in the police station at night, and it is not easy to invade the police station to assassinate.

What's more, in order to test the true level of Chitong and others, they are forbidden to carry court equipment or Teigu during this assessment.

This undoubtedly made the completion of the task even more difficult, but Chitong and Chelsea were full of confidence, because they firmly believed that they were already qualified and excellent Assassins.

Of course, the imperial envoy Fangdi who stayed in the prefect's mansion of Shanbei City had already been beheaded by Kuangxinzi alone, so there was no need to worry that Chitong and the others would encounter unsolvable opponents during the mission.

Only Tegushi can deal with Tegushi.

This old saying that has been passed down for thousands of years in the history of the empire is indeed true, but it will not be tried on the heroic spirits.

Dodging the patrolling soldiers and the secret sentries, Chitong managed to reach the location of the Shanbei City Security Bureau, and took out his dagger to make a move.

"Although there are not many people staying at night, are there still six people in total? It's a little tricky."

After investigating the enemy's situation clearly, Chitong jumped onto the roof of the police station. The sheriff's office is on the third floor at the top. If he wanted to avoid alarming others, he could only try to do it from here.

Recently, the weather has been relatively hot, especially in inland areas like Shanbei County.

The windows of the police station are still open at night, which is really convenient for Chitong, and makes her actions less troublesome and hindered.

Chitong didn't spend too much time confirming the location of the target because he had seen the internal structure diagram of the police station beforehand.

The girl with rich experience in assassination was as careful as a lurking cheetah. She gently pried open the lock and pushed the door in. When she saw the snoring sheriff curled up on the cot, she sealed her throat with a knife, and her movements were crisp.

Then, she looked at the dead man's face by the moonlight to confirm that she had completed the task.

"Target confirmed, funeral is over!"

Chitong murmured softly, opened the window of the office and jumped out, and quickly evacuated from the crime scene without looking back.

At the same time, the other Assassin team members who sneaked into the city with her also successfully completed their tasks one after another, and began to retreat by the route they planned alone in advance.

Compared with the other seven people, Chelsea's physical ability is the weakest, but it is not a problem to fly over the wall.

This assessment task was the most difficult for her, but fortunately, she completed it without any risk. After getting back Tegu's 'Transform Free Gaia Foundation', Chelsea's assassination ability will definitely be so strong People are timid.

At dawn, the Assassin assassination team reassembled in the deep mountains.

Nahashu, Cornelia, Guy, Green, Chikushi, Akahito, Black Hitomi, Chelsea, three men, five women, and eight of them.

With the powerful ability to manipulate the shadows, Shadow Lantern Hassan has already confirmed their achievements, and they all completed the tasks very well.

Looking at the eight young people standing in a row in front of them, Hassan, Curse Wrist and Baimao, understood that the old man in the mountain who will be the leader of the new generation will surely be born from them.

As for who it will be, that is something that the old man of the mountain will consider.

"Congratulations, you have officially become a member of the Assassin Order from today, but this is just the beginning!"

As the instructor who has the most contact with the students, most of the lectures are done by fanatics, and as a fanatic, she has indeed successfully cultivated a new batch of supporters.

"Next, I will announce the new arrangement for you. Those whose names have been called come forward, grab your weapons and set off immediately!"

Kuangxinzi's face turned serious, causing Chitong and the others to stand up straight subconsciously, their eyes fixed on the instructor in front of them.

"Nahashiu, Guy, and Green are on the line. You have been assigned to the assassination agency in the army. Your main job is intelligence and counter-espionage."

The few three teenagers in the team responded and ran to Cursed Arm Hassan to get back the treasured weapons handed in before the mission—the thousand-layered garment, the rattlesnake, and the water dragon sword.
