If he could kill Liva before tomorrow night, Lin Chen would not only get the Teigu, but also gain more say after joining the Night Raid with his head. After all, Lin Chen didn't have a Teigu, and joining the Night Raid with the help of Tatsumi, a newcomer, was completely different from being able to kill the famous Three Beast Warriors.
Moreover, Liva's weakness is very obvious. He must have sufficient water or other liquids, otherwise his strength will be greatly reduced.
According to the soldiers, Niu rarely comes to the barracks, and Daidas just came yesterday and will not come again in a short time. Now Liva is the only one in the barracks.
Lin Chen worked hard to collect information about Liva and make full preparations for the assassination tonight.
Chapter 41 The assassination begins
As night falls, the thousand-year-old imperial capital becomes completely different.
The bustling daytime scene of the city is covered by a mysterious veil, replaced by a dazzling night scene.
The entire imperial capital was ablaze with countless lights at night. The ancient streets were lined with lanterns, and the colorful lights swayed in the breeze, illuminating the narrow alleys and wide avenues.
From any corner of the imperial capital, one can look up and see the splendor of the imperial palace. The emperor's glory covers all the subjects of the imperial capital.
And at the edge of the imperial capital, the streets that are getting farther and farther away are also filled with lights.
Although the peripheral areas of the imperial capital are not as lively as the bustling center, they still shine with their own glimmer.
After a busy day, Liva sorted the revised documents into categories and kept them in order.
As the only one of the three beast warriors who works, he has a lot of tasks to deal with every day, but he enjoys it.
Facing the floor-length mirror, looking at his neat black outfit, neatly styled bangs and ponytail, Riva was quite satisfied.
Even in the military camp, he would not wear military uniform, but would dress similarly to the butler.
When Esdeath asked him to manage the army, the soldiers didn't think that this white-haired old man could manage it well. Being an imperial weapon user was completely different from managing an army. But in the end, they all bowed down to him. Many people were curious about how he got his management ability.
In fact, if you change the title to General Liva, everyone will understand.
It's just that no one has connected General Liva, who is famous in the southern part of the empire, with Liva, the servant who calls himself General Esdeath.
From the moment he was rescued by Esdeath, the Imperial soldier Riva had already died, and naturally he would no longer wear a military uniform.
"Alas, I don't know when Lady Esdeath will come back. Until she comes back, I will help her protect everything."
Liva touched the ring on his hand and left the barracks.
On the way home, Liva found that there were a lot more pedestrians on the road, all of them were hurrying forward, and the temperature was getting higher and higher.
Curious, he asked passers-by, "What's going on? Why are they all rushing forward?"
"I heard that in order to support General Esdeath who is fighting against foreign races in the Far North Fortress, one of the general's admirers paid a large sum of money to invite the entire imperial capital's theater troupe to perform General Esdeath's achievements. All citizens can watch for free. One of the performance spots is in front of us."
"Look at the torches beside the road. What's called a 'Ten Mile Long Lantern'? We need to pray for General Esdeath all night long."
Leva was suddenly curious.
"I never thought that the General has such a loyal admirer who is willing to spend so much money to promote Lady Esdeath."
"It's just that...actually, if we can just give the money in cash to the general, he would probably be happier."
Liva knew the general very well. She loved war to her core. She would not spend a penny on promoting herself and did not care what the people thought of her. Her only principle was to invest all the money in military expenditure and start endless wars.
"Forget it, forget it, I'll go over and join in the fun."
Liva noticed that there were several wooden barrels placed at short intervals between the torches on the roadside, with the words "Please do not touch fire prevention materials" written on them.
When I got closer, I found that there was an open wooden barrel. I touched it with my hand and found clear water.
Liva nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that the organizer is very capable. He even took care of the fire prevention details. He is a talent. Let's see if there is a chance to bring him in to work for the general."
Clapping his hands, Riva continued to walk forward slowly, in sharp contrast to the hurried passers-by on the road, and soon he was left behind and alone.
But there is nothing he can do about it. As Esdeath's most powerful confidant in the empire and a user of imperial tools, he has many dignitaries who curry favor with him. He has seen all kinds of dramas praising Esdeath and he is so familiar with them.
Riva, who was walking slowly, soon saw a decadent young man who stuck a signboard into the ground and sat listlessly beside it.
Glancing at Liva who was approaching, the young man lowered his head and said smoothly: "Go forward from the dramatic point and follow the torches to the end. Thank you."
Liva asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
The young man grumbled, "Oh, I don't know what the boss is thinking. Is it possible that someone will go wrong just by following the torches? Why does he have to ask me to show the way?"
"Indeed, but thank you for your guidance."
"You're welcome."
Liva said goodbye to the young man gracefully and continued on his way.
"Revenge mark, water flow speeds up!"
Liva, who had just turned around and was about to leave, suddenly felt a deadly murderous intent coming from behind.
"No, there's something wrong with this person."
His half-life of battlefield experience and the high bonus from the Imperial Gear [Water Dragon Possession·Black Horse] enabled him to react, and he immediately rolled down to avoid the attack without caring about his image.
The decadent young man Lin Chen secretly smacked his lips: "As expected of an imperial weapon that controls water, the intelligence bonus must be amazing. But even if you dodge the vital points, how can you do it without paying a price? My sword is not that easy to dodge."
"Hereby."
The blade of the Qinghong Sword scratched across Liva's back, leaving a cut nearly 10 centimeters deep and 2 centimeters long, and blood flowed out uncontrollably.

(Note: Lin Chen's white quality binoculars cannot see any of the attributes of the Imperial Equipment. The Imperial Equipment will exclude the observation of the white reconnaissance equipment, not to mention the effect of the Imperial Equipment. Binoculars are not that powerful. White quality reconnaissance equipment can only observe 50 points of attributes that are slightly above the limit, and will not exceed 60 points at most. The later it is, the more difficult it is to cross the level. Reconnaissance equipment: white can see the apprentice level, green can see the 1st level, blue can see the 2nd level...)
"You can't even see strength and agility? It seems that your high intelligence has blocked my observation. The reconnaissance equipment must be replaced as soon as possible."
Lin Chen was speechless when he saw the reconnaissance results full of question marks.
Chapter 42: The Fall of Liva
Where the lights are ten miles long, under the illumination of tens of millions of torches, the night is as bright as day.
Liva dodged Lin Chen's backstab in a panic, then drew his sword and put it behind his back to block Lin Chen's subsequent attacks, which was similar to the ancient Chinese sword technique "Su Qin Prepares the Sword".
This was the first time that someone escaped Lin Chen's backstab.
"Exquisite swordsmanship, very quick reaction, at least 80 or even 90 points of intelligence."
Lin Chen secretly admired him, but he did not stop drawing his sword. While Liva was on the ground and it was difficult for him to exert force, Lin Chen's sword was faster than the last and he pinned Liva to the ground and made him unable to get up.
Liva roared: "Water Block Bomb!!!"
He barely mobilized the clean water in the nearest wooden barrel and shot it directly at Lin Chen's head. At the same time, he used his sword to block the Qinghong Sword and took the opportunity to kick Lin Chen's abdomen with his legs.
Lin Chen didn't want to fight any more, so he decided to quit while he was ahead. It was obviously impossible to expect to kill the enemy in one breath.
[Liwa] HP 74%, the effect is not bad, after all, this is the real world, not a computer game where you can be alive and kicking even if you only have 1 drop of health left. The reality is that ordinary people will feel dizzy and uncomfortable even if they catch a cold.
Lin Chen casually praised: "That's pretty impressive, old man!"
Liva held the sword and gasped for breath, blood flowing down his back. The sword was full of pits and holes. It was obvious that after a few more fights with the Qinghong Sword, the sword would be scrapped.
But it doesn't make much sense. If Lin Chen wanted to, he had many ways to resist the water bomb and cut off the sword, but Liva could use the water from the water bomb to protect himself at any time.
The imperial device used by an imperial device user is his real weapon.
"Who are you? Night Raid?"
"No. Night raids are only carried out against corrupt dignitaries and the wealthy class who have committed many evil deeds."
"Why are you trying to kill me? The minister or someone else?"
Lin Chen slowly approached with his sword in hand and chuckled, "What does this matter? Now only one of us can survive, so let's talk with swords."
"Let the sword speak, then give it a try. With this imperial weapon given to me by the master, I will let you understand the power of the imperial weapon!!!"
Liva dropped his tattered sword, and the ring on his right middle finger began to flicker. With a wave of his right hand, all the nearby fire barrels were broken open, and a large amount of liquid flew out.
"It's now!!!"
Lin Chen seized the opportunity and threw three flash bombs at Liva in a triangular shape before Liva could mobilize the liquid to be around him.
"Mental shock!!!"
At the right moment, Lin Chen activated his only control skill. With Liva's will and intelligence, the mental shock could only have a forced effect of 0.5 seconds.
However, Shadow's teachings came to Lin Chen's mind: "Lesson 2, as long as you control the distance, speed and strength are secondary."
Lin Chen: "As long as you seize the opportunity, there is no difference between 0.5 seconds and 5 seconds!!!"
At first, Liva didn't know that it was a flash bomb. When he reacted with his high intelligence and wanted to close his eyes to dodge, he was directly controlled by Lin Chen. He was distracted and failed to dodge the flash.
"Oh no, the Devouring Snake is haunting me!!!"
The vast expanse of white made Riva's heart sink. He covered his eyes and quickly activated the imperial weapon's effect, the Devouring Snake, to protect himself.
A large amount of liquid gathered towards Liva and under control, it formed a devouring snake more than ten meters long that tightly wrapped around Liva.
If Lin Chen wanted to break the Devouring Serpent's guard and attack Riva at this moment, it would be impossible to do so. After all, Lin Chen couldn't even cut off Riva's fine iron sword in one go. Once Riva recovered, Lin Chen would face a fierce counterattack.
Lin Chen is not as resistant as [Haunted by Evil Ghost], and is now in a desperate situation. He must either retreat now or fight to the death.
“Everything went as planned, great!!!”
Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had rehearsed it in his mind hundreds of times, he was still a little nervous before he succeeded.
Whether it was the three flash bombs or the mental shock, Lin Chen deliberately broke Liva's sword just for this moment, so that the Abyss Snake could entangle him.
Liva wrinkled his nose: "No, the smell is wrong. Why is the smell of the abyss snake so pungent?"
"Oh no, it's kerosene!!!"
"The Abyss Snakes must be dispersed immediately!!!"
Liva's face changed drastically. There were torches all around. Once the kerosene was lit, his whole body would be entangled by the abyss snake...
“It’s too late!”
"No, the time is just right!"
The Molotov cocktail thrown by Lin Chen just hit the Abyss Snake, and the fire began to burn the entire snake's body.
Lin Chen looked at the long flaming snake rising into the sky: "How beautiful!"
Except for a few open barrels that contained water, all other barrels were filled with kerosene. The kerosene content of the entire Abyss Snake was as high as over 95%. Once ignited, the consequences would be...
"Ahhhh!!!"
Sharp screams resounded through the sky. Residents of several streets could see the fiery snake in the sky. Then it completely shattered and set fire to a dozen nearby shops.
