Chapter 220: Chapter 30: Scattered and Fleeing

"Cough, cough, cough."

Red Eye bent over, coughing dryly, blood spilling from her mouth.

The burning pain from the energy within her body caused her to tremble all over, but Red Eye made no sound.

Tazmi in the distance wanted to rush forward to help, but just as he made a move, an orange laser hit the ground in front of him, leaving a finger-width hole with smoke rising from it.

Mine’s intention was clear; don’t go forward to die. If Red Eye couldn’t face the enemy, you definitely couldn’t handle it either.

Red Eye’s current state was not optimistic, with multiple fractures throughout her body and a penetrating wound in her chest.

"9, 7, 3, 7, 9."

Red Eye shouted a sequence of numbers loudly; it was clearly a code.

Tazmi had just joined the Night Raid Team and was unfamiliar with this code, but Mine understood.

Three orange lasers shot toward Tazmi’s front, gradually closing in on him, signifying a retreat.

Red Eye, dragging her injured body, began to gradually retreat, and Mine’s firepower disappeared. Tazmi also understood the situation roughly and began to retreat slowly.

Red Eye stared intently at Su Xiao, hoping he would pursue her.

Su Xiao glanced at Red Eye, then at Mine in the distance, and finally at Tazmi. The three were retreating in different directions; he could only chase one.

"Forced to use such a method, huh."

Su Xiao suddenly surged, charging at full speed toward one person.

His target was Tazmi! He didn’t believe Red Eye would let him die.

Red Eye gritted her silver teeth, realizing the enemy was a hundred times more cunning than she imagined; she could only abandon her original strategy.

At this moment, Tazmi understood the situation; he had become a burden.

Realizing this, Tazmi felt as though a heavy stone was pressing on his chest; his gaze gradually became determined, and this young man was slowly maturing.

Tazmi looked at Su Xiao rushing toward him, then glanced at the bottomless river three meters away.

With a leap, Tazmi jumped from the dock into the river, an act requiring great courage, knowing his entire chest had been slashed open, and even if not drowned, he might die from an infection.

With a splash, Tazmi fell into the water.

"A boy with guts."

Su Xiao changed his running direction toward Mine.

In the distance, another splash was heard as Mine also jumped into the river. Although Mine wasn’t old, she was a seasoned Anbu.

Su Xiao halted his step; it was a shame these Night Raid members weren’t in a diving event.

"As you wish."

This time, Su Xiao pursued Red Eye. After noticing Tazmi and Mine’s dive, Red Eye turned and fled, moving faster than a rabbit.

If it weren’t for the blood trail along the way, Su Xiao would doubt whether this girl was injured, as she ran incredibly fast, plus Red Eye was highly familiar with the layout of the Imperial Capital.

Su Xiao was somewhat hesitant in pursuit, wondering if he should continue.

Since noon, he had been chasing down enemies, and now with the sun setting, it seemed less like a life-and-death struggle with enemies today and more like attending a sports event.

First was a marathon (chasing Leone)

Then mud jump (leaping over visible swamps)

Then watching the diving contest (witnessing Tazmi and Mine jumping into the river)

Now, a new marathon (chasing Red Eye)

Red Eye’s escape direction was toward the interior of the Imperial Capital, where the environment was complex and more suitable for her escape, whereas Leone chose the Forest earlier due to the influence of the Imperial Tool Lion King, with ’Wild Beasts’ preferring nature.

A bloodied young girl was running ahead, followed a few minutes later by a sword-wielding man.

This scene frightened the residents of the Imperial Capital, with some notifying the guards in the city.

Chasing someone down the streets of the Imperial Capital, of course, was not allowed, so a large number of guards were dispatched.

They failed to intercept Red Eye in front, but half an hour later, they stopped Su Xiao.

"Stop, drop your weapon, you thug."

A Guard Captain raised a strangely designed gun, as guards in the Imperial Capital were equipped with hot weapons.

"Assassination Squad business."

Su Xiao showed his identification for the Assassination Squad.

"Sir, I apologize."

After revealing his Assassination Squad credentials, the Guard Captain’s attitude turned 180 degrees.

"I’m pursuing a member of the Night Raid. Notify your head captain immediately, seal all exits of the Imperial Capital, the fugitive is a girl about eighteen or nineteen, armed, in black clothing, injured. Suspend any similar suspicious individuals from entering or leaving the Imperial Capital."

"Yes!"

The Guard Captain stood straight, now covered in a cold sweat.

These guards might be arrogant in front of civilians, but they all turned into obedient sheep in front of the Assassination Squad.

The Assassination Squad typically is under the direct command of the Royal Family or various Generals, with the right to act without prior approval. Even if they killed someone in the street, the guards would have to accept their fate, and the family wouldn’t receive compensation.

This is the Imperial Capital, where power is everything, and those with power can trample others’ dignity and bodies at will.

The destruction of such an Empire was only reasonable.

The Imperial guards were quickly mobilized, with all entrances and exits sealed, as a Night Raid member infiltrating the Imperial Capital was no trivial matter.

Entering a small alley, Su Xiao crouched down by a bloodstain on the ground.

Touching the bloodstain with his fingers, he found it still somewhat warm, indicating Red Eye had just left, and he was getting closer to her.

Nearby, some white cloth strips were scattered, stained with large blood patches, presumably used by Red Eye to bandage her wounds by tearing off her undergarments.

Su Xiao laughed softly; the wound on Red Eye’s chest had been cut at an angle after Dragon Slash penetrated, making it exceedingly hard to bandage, especially since it was on her chest, making it even more difficult to bandage.

Following the blood trail, Su Xiao hunted through the Imperial Capital, with Red Eye darting around like a wounded deer.

"Let’s see how long you can last with severe blood loss."

Following the tiny blood droplets in pursuit, Su Xiao found the surrounding buildings beginning to deteriorate twenty minutes later, occasionally spotting some utterly drunk people by the street.

This was the slum, the most chaotic and poorest area of the Imperial Capital.

If an attractive woman dared to walk alone in this slum, she would probably be seized, only to appear on nearby Flower Street the next day.

The chaos here far surpassed imagination: women being abducted wasn’t the most terrifying; the real unfortunates were those drunkards by the street, who might end up on some cold laboratory table by dawn, facing insane human experiments.

First passing through an alley as black as ink, Su Xiao soon arrived at a bustling street.

The sky gradually drew darker.

This street was primarily lit with pink and red glows.

The street was lined with pointy building rooftops, featuring two-story or three-story buildings. Glazed tiles topped the buildings, with round or square lanterns hung in front of them.

Soft music blended with cheerful laughter on the street, while numerous men and women fondly leaned against each other.

Glimpses of scantily clad women could be seen on the balconies along the street, leisurely holding long smoking pipes, their eyes scanning passersby below, seemingly searching for a bedmate or an easy target for the night.

Su Xiao had arrived on the Flower Street of the Imperial Capital, the liveliest place in the slum.

Not only had Su Xiao reached Flower Street, but he entered wielding a sword, his bloodstained clothing signifying recent violence.

This scared the Flower Street guests, with couples running off.

Su Xiao entering Flower Street with his sword affected certain people’s interests, prompting immediate concern.
