Chapter 487: Beheading Operation

Chapter 487: Beheading Operation

Liu Xing and the others improvised, gathering tables and chairs from nearby shops to set up a temporary base.

At the same time, many panicked civilians ran out from the buildings on both sides of the road.

"We need some people to take charge of evacuating the crowd, directing them to leave North Point directly," Chris said.

With officers managing the crowd evacuation, the situation looked somewhat better.

However, the incessant screams from the buildings never ceased.

Seeing this, Chris said helplessly, "Chette, looks like I’ll have to prepare my resignation letter this time."

Liu Xing nodded. Although it was said above that they would receive the so-called "death quota," judging from the current situation, the number of ordinary civilians who died in North Point was probably over a hundred. Therefore, it was impossible to cover up, and someone needed to step forward as a scapegoat.

And Chris, the police chief from Manchester, was naturally the best scapegoat.

Of course, this time, Liu Xing and the others would definitely not bear this blame because they couldn’t bear it.

At this moment, a blood man finally appeared on the street.

And this blood man was obviously under the control of the Ghoul.

"Alice, Yuan Chen, do you know how extensive the Ghoul’s control over this blood man is? We must find that Ghoul now. Even if we can’t kill it, we must force it to leave," Liu Xing asked.

Alice shook her head, while Yuan Chen hesitated and said, "My grandfather once said that the Ghoul’s control over the blood man isn’t too far-reaching, probably only about three to four hundred meters. But this is just a guess. Don’t blame me if I’m wrong."

Liu Xing nodded and said, "If there’s only one Ghoul in North Point, then that Ghoul should be in the center of North Point. Let’s go trouble that Ghoul now!"

Everyone nodded in agreement, and then Liu Xing found Chris to explain the situation.

"The current situation, Mr. Ryuusei, as you can see, we can’t spare manpower to accompany you on the beheading operation. Besides, we haven’t confirmed where that Ghoul is," Chris shrugged.

Liu Xing nodded and said, "I understand what you mean, Mr. Chris. Right now, you just need to give us a few more hand grenades. After all, that Ghoul probably has quite a few blood men protecting it. We need hand grenades to clear the way."

Chris thought for a moment and had someone fetch fifteen hand grenades for Liu Xing.

"This is the most hand grenades I can give you now. After all, we also have a group of Ghouls to deal with here," Chris said somewhat helplessly.

Liu Xing nodded and said, "Then we’ll go find that Ghoul first. Mr. Chris, we’ll see you later."

So, Liu Xing and the others left the large group.

Alice looked at the map and pointed to a tall eight-story building ahead, saying, "That should be the highest point in the North Point area, also the central location of North Point. So, if there’s only one Ghoul in North Point, it should be here."

Liu Xing nodded. Indeed, this building was the highest point in North Point, and it was a very old-fashioned department store.

The trouble with these old department stores was that there were many routes up and down.

"Let’s not split up with so few of us. Let’s just charge straight up," Ling Ishikawa said.

Liu Xing nodded. If they split up now, it would be no different from sending themselves to die.

But before going up, Liu Xing also asked Miguel and Hu Li, "Miguel, Hu Li, do you feel the presence of the Ghoul now, or anyone else?"

Miguel nodded, pointing to the rooftop, "I can feel it now. There are many different auras on the rooftop, and among these auras, I can sense two familiar ones, apparently Romero’s wife and son!"

Liu Xing frowned. He hadn’t expected Romero’s wife and son to be here. It seemed likely that the Ghoul was also here.

"Yes, I estimate that there are more than thirty different auras up there, and they’ve also released some kind of interference factor, making it impossible for me to determine whether they are human, Ghoul, or blood men. But I can feel they’re spread out on different floors. For example, on the first floor, there are four or five different auras scattered around each entrance. This means that as soon as we enter the building, they will definitely detect us," Hu Li said seriously.

But the feeling of winning without much effort was indeed nice.

Liu Xing’s group’s journey of effortless victory continued.

Soon, Liu Xing and the others arrived at the rooftop.

Along the way, it was basically "big brother taking care of everything," so Buke and Jack didn’t need to replenish their ammunition. Ryuzaki effortlessly solved the Cult of the Cadaver followers, acquiring four more rifles in the process.

And these four rifles were allocated to Miguel, who was skilled in various firearms, Yuan Chen, who had firearm experience in the United States of America, and Liu Xing and Ling Ishikawa, who were just bystanders.

When handing the rifles to Liu Xing and Ling Ishikawa, Ryuzaki also explained, "I’ve set these two rifles to single-shot mode because full-auto mode isn’t suitable for you novices. In reality, full-auto mode doesn’t have much use because the recoil of rifles is too strong. Continuous full-auto shooting would not only injure the shooter’s shoulder but also greatly reduce bullet accuracy. So, in the real world, rifles are mainly used in single-shot or burst modes."

Liu Xing nodded. He had seen this information in a video about misunderstandings caused by gunfight games in the real world. The biggest misunderstanding was that rifles were primarily used for full-auto shooting.

In the real world, except for some African "uncles," almost all other countries’ forces used rifles primarily for single-shot or burst fire.

Returning to the topic, Liu Xing and the others had now arrived at the entrance to the rooftop.

Once bitten, twice shy.

This time, Ryuzaki kicked open the iron door directly and quickly retreated into the corridor.

There was no sound.

Ryuzaki gestured to Buke and Jack, and the three of them cautiously moved out, each looking in three different directions to guard against possible Cult of the Cadaver attacks.

"It’s temporarily safe. Everyone can come out now," Ryuzaki said.

Liu Xing and the others then entered the rooftop.

However, the moment they stepped onto the rooftop, Liu Xing and the others felt something was wrong because there were too many objects cluttering the rooftop, such as various air conditioning units and pipes, turning the rooftop into a maze.

At this moment, Hu Li shook her head and said, "Sure enough, the Cult of the Cadaver used some kind of information interference substance on the rooftop. I can no longer determine their specific positions."

"Yes, I can’t detect the positions of the Cult of the Cadaver followers on the rooftop either," Miguel nodded.

This was troublesome.

If they couldn’t determine the positions of the Cult of the Cadaver followers, then their group would be at a significant disadvantage. After all, knowing the enemy’s location was crucial. The Cult of the Cadaver followers could attack Liu Xing’s group at any time while remaining hidden.

"Let’s just sweep clockwise. That way, those followers won’t be able to hide," Ryuzaki took the lead again.

So, Liu Xing and the others proceeded cautiously.

Seeing this, the Cult of the Cadaver followers realized they couldn’t launch an attack and deliberately made some noise.

Liu Xing and the others followed the sounds and saw over a dozen Cult of the Cadaver followers each hiding behind various covers, while Romero’s wife held Romero’s son and stood beside the Ghoul wielding a wooden staff.

It seemed they were prepared for a direct confrontation.

But for Liu Xing and the others, this wasn’t bad news. After all, in a direct confrontation, their group wouldn’t be at a disadvantage. With over a dozen hand grenades still in their hands, Liu Xing’s group had the upper hand.

At this moment, Romero’s wife suddenly said, "You guys are really annoying. Wherever I go, you follow. But now you should know the situation. We, the Cult of the Cadaver, have absolute superiority. So if you’re willing to join us, we, the Cult of the Cadaver, can easily forgive and forget, and give you a way out."

Liu Xing raised an eyebrow. He hadn’t expected Romero’s wife to be so confident at this point. After all, judging from the current strength on paper, their side was definitely in the lead. In the face of over a dozen guns, a single

Ghoul wasn’t much of a threat, unless that Ghoul possessed some Magic Spells that could change the tide of battle.
