Chapter 486: Preemptive Strike

Chapter 486: Preemptive Strike

To fail is to embrace martyrdom.

Though Liu Xing wanted to discuss with Zhang Jingxu and others, there was no opportunity to convene a Private Room session at the moment. Thus, Liu Xing had to take a gamble and act without consulting, relying on his luck.

"KP, please assist me with an inspiration judgment now," Liu Xing said, taking a deep breath.

KP Li Shunchan chuckled, replying, "Well then, I can only wish you good luck."

Liu Xing, 4/5, succeeded.

?! In the instant the judgment result appeared, Liu Xing, who had thought he was done for, was surprised to find that his inspiration judgment had succeeded.

"Heh, it seems your luck is quite good, Liu Xing. Congratulations, you’ve obtained some special intelligence!" KP Li Shunchan said with a smile.

With the judgment result, a bold idea suddenly emerged in Liu Xing’s mind. According to the information provided by Isabella, there were numerous followers of the Cult of the Cadaver entering North Corner. Coupled with the mafia members who were originally under Alexander, the over one hundred blood men they had just killed were definitely not all!

More importantly, those foreign tourists released by the Cult of the Cadaver might not just be used for propaganda, but could also be sleeper agents!

Thinking of this, Liu Xing immediately turned to Alice and asked, "Alice, do you know where Chris went?"

Looking at Liu Xing’s sudden excitement, Alice replied somewhat surprised, "You mean Chris? I think he should be at the temporary headquarters. Right now, the higher-ups of the Manchester police are having a meeting."

Frowning, Liu Xing hurriedly ran towards the temporary headquarters.

The temporary headquarters was actually an armored command vehicle. At this moment, the rear door was closed, and two officers were guarding it.

Seeing Liu Xing rushing over suddenly, the two officers immediately raised their submachine guns and pointed them at him, asking, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Without delay, Liu Xing ignored whether his Hu Li Magic Spells would frighten the two officers and said directly, "Let me in. I have urgent business to see your chief, Chris!"

Indeed, the two officers were stunned by Liu Xing’s words. Although they couldn’t understand the language he was speaking, they understood the meaning.

Seeing the officers staring blankly at him, Liu Xing decided to take matters into his own hands. Without further ado, he pushed open the door.

At this point, the two officers finally reacted and aimed their weapons at Liu Xing again.

Meanwhile, everyone inside the command vehicle had their eyes on Liu Xing.

Fortunately, Chris was inside the vehicle.

"Mr. Ryuusei, what’s the matter?" Chris asked, surprised.

Liu Xing nodded and asked directly, "Mr. Chris, do you know how many foreign tourists released by the Cult of the Cadaver there are? Where are they now?"

Frowning, Chris replied, "If I recall correctly, there are one hundred and twelve foreign tourists released by the Cult of the Cadaver. Initially, we planned to compensate them for their mental damages and then send them back to their respective countries. However, due to the Thick Fog issue, these foreign tourists and their relatives who came to pick them up are all stranded in the country. They are currently accommodated in the hotels they originally stayed in, with all expenses covered by us... Wait, Liu Xing, what do you mean?!"

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, acknowledging that Yis People’s idea was indeed good.

Since they couldn’t find more help and didn’t receive additional support, launching an early attack on EinsCastle wouldn’t result in any losses. Moreover, it might catch Bai Hecheng and his group off guard. After all, they wouldn’t expect Liu Xing and the others, who had been on the defensive, to suddenly launch an attack.

So, Liu Xing nodded and said, "I agree with Mr. Liu Xing’s idea. The longer we delay, the more unfavorable it becomes for us. So, launching an early attack on EinsCastle is a good choice for us now, especially since most of the Cult of the Cadaver’s attention is focused on the city of Manchester."

Therefore, Liu Xing and the others unanimously decided to launch an attack on EinsCastle tomorrow night, aiming to destroy the imitation corrupt wood sculpture.

At this point, Chris, accompanied by several senior police officers, emerged from the command vehicle.

Then, the final sweep of the North Corner began.

Liu Xing and the others still followed Chris’s lead, but this time, they were accompanied by dozens of police officers, conducting searches building by building.

During this time, they encountered many uncooperative residents and some mafia members who attempted to resist. However, these people were just outlets for Chris’s frustration. He didn’t bother much with them. If they didn’t cooperate, he would simply take action, subdue them, tie them up, and leave them on the roadside until the sweep was over.

Under this rough approach, the speed of the final sweep was very high, and half of the North Corner Area was quickly cleared.

However, what puzzled Liu Xing and the others was that the Cult of the Cadaver seemed to have disappeared completely, as if evaporating into thin air.

"Damn it, I always feel like the Cult of the Cadaver is preparing to give us a big surprise!" Zhang Jingxu muttered under his breath.

Liu Xing nodded. This abnormality hinted at something sinister because there were still many Cult of the Cadaver followers in North Corner, and now that the Cult of the Cadaver had started causing trouble, how could those followers not be involved?

So, there was only one possibility now: the Cult of the Cadaver was planning a major event.

At this moment, a voice came over the walkie-talkie, "Damn it, this is the second squad. We’ve encountered a group of blood men attacking the residents in a building... No, not just one building, we have at least five buildings here under attack by blood men! We need support!"

As soon as the voice fell, another voice came over the walkie-talkie, "Damn it, we’ve also encountered blood men here, attacking ordinary residents in the building!"

Sure enough, the Cult of the Cadaver had started to act forcefully.

Chris frowned, picked up the walkie-talkie, and said, "Don’t even think about rescuing those residents because with your current firepower, it’s simply impossible. So, to avoid unnecessary sacrifices, I order you to establish defenses on the spot and prepare to ambush those blood men. Start firing warning shots now to let the survivors still in the buildings know to evacuate quickly!"

Liu Xing couldn’t help but nod. Chris had made the most correct choice now.

At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly heard gunshots not far away, but these were pistol shots.

It seemed that civilians were under attack by blood men, and they were fighting back.

Liu Xing estimated the distance of the gunshots and realized they were about a hundred meters away.

"It seems the blood men on our side are just ahead. Let’s try to push forward to their location and set up defenses. Hopefully, we can rescue more residents!" Chris said, opening the way for action.
