Esdeath must have received the news that the Imperial Capital has been occupied by the Revolutionary Army and is now heading in their direction. Because according to the informant's report, Esdeath personally went to the battlefield and killed more than 100,000 people by herself, ending the war in the shortest possible time. Esdeath's strength is now beyond Najenda's estimation, and even an army of 200,000 cannot hold her back. And it is precisely because of Esdeath's powerful strength that Najenda, who understands her, made this unspeakable decision after constant discussions with the top leaders of the Revolutionary Army. Use 200,000 troops as abandoned pawns. Esdeath has no interest in the weak. Rather than slaughtering the weak, she would rather challenge those who are stronger. However, there is no one in this world who is stronger than her. Najeshitan concluded that as long as the information from the imperial capital was not passed on to Esdeath, the battle front there would continue for a long time. Leading troops in battle is also one of Esdeath's few hobbies. An army of two hundred thousand would not be wiped out so easily, and the location they chose was easy to defend but difficult to attack. If Esdeath did not take action personally, the battle over there would have lasted at least a month.

Therefore, they did not choose to attack immediately after Esdeath left the imperial capital, but instead continued to formulate and optimize plans. It was not until half a month after Esdeath left the imperial capital that Shirou Emiya killed the Emiya android, who posed the greatest threat to the Revolutionary Army. They decided to capture the Imperial Capital before Esdeath learned that it had lost its defenses. However, even if they possessed most of the imperial weapons in the entire empire, their chances of defeating Esdeath were still slim. This time, Najeshitan came here to negotiate with Shirou Emiya. You have to know that right now, Shirou Emiya is the strongest fighter among them as far as they know. The only chance of winning may really lie with a non-Imperial person. In fact, after the Revolutionary Army successfully occupied the Imperial Capital, Shirou Emiya prepared to set off for the front line where Esdeath was fighting. However, he was not familiar with the empire's route, nor did he know where Esdeath was fighting, so he went to ask Najeshitan. Naturally, Najenda stopped Shirou Emiya at the first moment and did not tell him the message about Esdeath. One aspect is that the intelligence has not yet been passed to Esdeath, and the revolutionary army in the imperial capital does not want to give up this hard-earned breathing time. If Shirou Emiya went to fight Esdeath right away, the fact that the imperial capital had been captured would soon be exposed. Because of Emiya's androids, the Revolutionary Army does not trust Emiya Shirou. Even if he provides the Revolutionary Army with the weapons he projected, the Revolutionary Army still does not trust Emiya Shirou. Of course, the most important reason is that Shirou Emiya is not from the empire. You have to know that in order to possess such strength, the Revolutionary Army must have collected information on Shirou Emiya. Shirou Emiya first appeared on the battlefield in the north, and there was no news about Shirou Emiya in any village within the empire. He couldn't have appeared out of nowhere. The only inference was that Shirou Emiya was not from the Empire. Whether it was the Revolutionary Army or the Empire, their attitude towards foreigners was extremely bad. If it weren't for Shirou Emiya's extremely powerful strength, the Revolutionary Army would probably order a night raid to capture Shirou Emiya and allow him to continuously provide weapons to the Revolutionary Army. The members of the Night Raid are not hostile to Shirou Emiya, but they have not developed a deep friendship with him either. If it were for the people of the Empire, I'm afraid the Night Raid would carry out the tasks of the Revolutionary Army.

As long as the top leaders of the Revolutionary Army don't reveal their true thoughts to Night Raid. If the people in the night raid understood that the Revolutionary Army wanted to capture Shirou Emiya and use him as a laborer, they would probably choose to communicate with Shirou Emiya secretly, and eventually report to the Revolutionary Army that Shirou Emiya had been killed by them. "Esdeath, I'm afraid we'll reach the imperial capital soon." Walking into the house, Najeshitan slowly sat down beside the wooden table and spoke in a slightly weak voice. Anyone who has not slept for several days and nights and continues to work and discuss will not be in a good mental state. What's more, because she had activated [Spirit of Evil] twice before, her physical condition was not as good as before. "How much longer?" "According to the army's speed, it will take Esdeath about three days to reach the imperial capital." {If Esdeath chooses to attack with the army} Najeshitan thought so in her heart. All of this is based on the premise that Esdeath still has no interest in them. If Esdeath, in a fit of rage, abandoned his army and headed straight for the imperial capital alone, then they would have no way to stop him. Although Esdeath is a compassionate person who is loved by her subordinates, no one can guarantee that her mood will not suddenly change and make people overwhelmed. "We can't let the flames of war spread here again." Shirou Emiya responded in a deep voice. The residents of the imperial capital had already suffered the disaster of war once, and Shirou Emiya did not want them to suffer this disaster that could have been avoided again. What's more, if he really fought with Esdeath, he might not have the energy to rescue them again. "I think the same thing. We can't just stay where we are. We have to take the initiative." Najenda nodded, agreeing with Shirou Emiya's idea. The imperial capital had already endured too much. Under the little emperor's [National Guardian Mecha "Supreme Throne"], more than half of the buildings in the imperial capital had been completely destroyed. It is still under repair. Moreover, in terms of military strength alone, Esdeath's army is not only equipped with the projected imperial weapons provided by the Emiya androids, but also far exceeds the number of the revolutionary army left in the imperial capital. After that battle, the Revolutionary Army had only dozens of soldiers left, except for the top brass and the imperial weapon users. It was impossible to stop the attack of those soldiers. Although each of the Imperial Equipment Users can defeat a hundred or even a thousand enemies at once, their physical strength is ultimately limited, and no one can control the [National Guardian Mecha God "Supreme Throne"] that only the Emperor's bloodline can control. There are almost no imperial weapon users who have the skills like Esdeath, who can kill thousands of people in an instant. Chapter 367: Plans Can't Keep Up with Changes Forty or fifty figures were constantly shuttling back and forth in the woods, following the pink kitten in front, which was running rapidly on the branches. Shirou Emiya still holds the opposite opinion from Najenda, and he does not know how powerful Esdeath is now. But based on Najensita's words and the explanations of those Emiya androids, it is certain that Esdeath's strength must be much stronger than the time when Emiya Shirou defeated her. At that time, Esdeath would need at least 10 elite soldiers and more than imperial weapon users including Akame to have a chance of winning. Now Najeshitan even asserted that the number of troops is meaningless in front of Esdeath now. Hundreds of thousands of troops cannot even consume Esdeath's physical strength.

Even an imperial weapon user is no different from an ordinary soldier in front of Esdeath. Those fifty Emiya androids actually have the fighting power of an Imperial Gear User, and to some extent they are even more difficult to deal with than an Imperial Gear User. Not only because of the several imperial tools they wore and the mental network they possessed, the combat coordination between them was even better than that of the Night Raid members. It can be said that the power exerted by Emiya android is definitely 1+1 greater than 2. But even so, they couldn't find any way to defeat Esdeath. Not to mention defeating Esdeath, even hurting her is impossible. Najensita believes that all hopes now rest on Shirou Emiya. If Shirou Emiya goes to fight and dies at the hands of Esdeath, then the Revolutionary Army will really have no chance of winning. In order to increase Shirou Emiya's chances of winning, Najenda believes that all the imperial tools users need to be sent to deal with Esdeath. Even if they cannot provide support to Shirou Emiya, being able to consume Esdeath's physical strength would already be a huge success. Shirou Emiya believed that this was an act of suicide, which had no meaning and would only make the Revolutionary Army weaker. In short, after a period of discussion, the final decision was that all the imperial weapon users should go to deal with Esdeath. Even such a powerful Esdeath could not withstand the Murasame in Akame's hands. If there was that chance, as long as Esdeath was scratched by Murasame, then everything would be over. Although the final decision was still in line with Najeshitan, the overall policy had changed. The original plan was to cover up Shirou Emiya and help Shirou Emiya kill Esdeath at all costs. After being reminded by Shirou Emiya, Najenda realized that she seemed to have over-deified Esdeath. No matter how powerful she was at this stage, she was still a mortal. Even if she was hit by Murasame, Esdeath would still lose her life. The plan once again returned to protecting Akagi and letting her find an opportunity to kill him with one strike. But now, the Revolutionary Army does not have more than 50,000 elite soldiers to drain Esdeath's energy and consume her physical strength. The focus of the battle is still on Shirou Emiya. If Akame didn't find an opportunity to kill Shirou Emiya with one blow before he was defeated, then everything would be over. They did not place too much hope on Shirou Emiya. It would be better to say that they had no hope of defeating Esdeath in the first place. The gap in strength is really too big. Esdeath's power is deeply rooted in people's hearts and has been felt by everyone. Although Shirou Emiya once confronted Esdeath head-on, no one knew the outcome of that battle. All we knew was that after that battle, Shirou Emiya did not appear in the imperial capital for three months. And in those three months, Esdeath became stronger and stronger, so strong that people could not see the end, and people could not feel any emotion except despair. "arrive!" As Chelsea, who had transformed into a kitten in the front, finished her words, everyone present slowed down their pace and stepped lightly on the soft soil. Although it should be impossible for Esdeath's army to discover them from the hill where they are now, these imperial weapon users still walked lightly. Sweat continued to flow from their foreheads.

The Revolutionary Army's Imperial Artifact-users team did not head directly toward Esdeath from the main road. People who can control the imperial tools or the ministerial tools generally have good physical fitness. And they needed to get rid of Esdeath before the army flattened the imperial capital they had just taken control of. So he chose to take a shorter but more dangerous route. There are countless dangerous species in the forest, but these dangerous species pose no threat in front of Shirou Emiya's sword arrows that almost automatically lock on. He also wanted to stop Esdeath as quickly as possible, so he took the initiative to eliminate all the dangerous species around him who wanted to attack them. The revolutionary army now has no power to stop such an army. Although the legion under Esdeath is extremely powerful, it also has obvious weaknesses. That is the extreme admiration for her. No one in the entire army has the influence that Esdeath has. Almost everyone highly worships and believes in Esdeath. To put it very bluntly, if Esdeath wanted to overthrow the empire, most of her subordinates would unconditionally support her in overthrowing the empire. Such an army has extremely high cohesion, but at the same time, it also has fatal weaknesses. That is, if Esdeath dies, the army will lose its combat effectiveness in an instant. To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. The only way to prevent the imperial capital from being breached is to kill Esdeath before she reaches the imperial capital. "How is this possible? The intelligence is wrong!" Chelsea, the first one to come out of the forest, looked at the deserted wilderness at the foot of the mountain and her pupils shrank involuntarily. According to the reports from the intelligence personnel on the front line, Esdeath's army should pass by here today. "Tazmi!" Tatsumi, who was in the team of imperial weapon users, quickly spread his wings behind him, grabbed Chelsea and flew down the mountain. "These footprints show that Esdeath's army has passed through this place completely, and it has been a day." Chelsea's expression became unusually bad. The reason why she was chosen to lead the Imperial Tool User team was because of her outstanding intelligence gathering ability. At least her role was very important before finding Esdeath. This shortcut was also provided by Chelsea. "Where would Esdeath be now?" Tatsumi asked quickly. Chelsea felt the footprints in the yellow sand beneath her feet and kneaded them in her hands. "I'm afraid Esdeath will soon arrive in the Imperial Capital!" The intelligence personnel did not expect it, nor did the Revolutionary Army, and certainly not Najenda, that Esdeath would choose to travel at night and force the legion to arrive near the imperial capital a day earlier. From a normal logic point of view, it is undoubtedly an unwise decision to let the exhausted army stationed around the city.

The army was already in a bad mental and physical state after a long journey, and now they had to keep on marching without any rest. It is difficult for the soldiers in the army to have enough spirit to defend or attack, and it can almost be said that they can easily be found opportunities for sneak attacks by the enemy. However, as long as Esdeath is still in the army, all conspiracies and tricks against the army will be useless. Chapter 368: War! War! War! ! !
