If it weren't for Kanna Ryoko's intervention, so of the Red Eagle rcenaries would undoubtedly have descended into temporary madness upon encountering these horrifying Monsters for the first ti, causing a decrease in their SAN value. In the worst-case scenario, if soone entered an aggressive temporary madness state, the Red Eagle rcenaries would plunge into chaos.
"The current situation is not bad. Red Eagle rcenaries haven't lost anyone yet; we've only wasted so ammunition. Besides, that commander showed so skill; he quickly identified the weaknesses of the artificial Deep Ones. It seems he is the leader of the Red Eagle rcenaries, Sagami Hayato," Yin En nodded and said with a smile.
Liu Xing gazed into the darkness in the distance and said, "In that case, the Dark Willow Gang will have to regroup. However, they don't have much ti left. The gunfire from earlier should have alerted soone, and there will definitely be people calling the police. So, the Dark Willow Gang has, at most, two or three hours. If the Ziwu City police reinforcents arrive, the Dark Willow Gang will be caught in a pincer attack, and their defeat is certain."
"Liu Xing, you're right. Unless the Dark Willow Gang wants to go down with us, they are probably trying to break through the Red Eagle rcenaries' defenses. But, to be honest, I don't think Mikageichi will choose to forcefully charge the Red Eagle rcenaries' lines. After all, Mikageichi just tested the Red Eagle rcenaries' firepower with those artificial Deep Ones. Even if real mythical creatures show up, the outco will only be death under a hail of bullets," Gu Jun said calmly.
At that mont, Yin En's phone suddenly rang.
Yin En answered the call and activated the speaker.
"Honda Koichi, didn't you say that those fish-headed Monsters had strong defenses? How co they were taken down so quickly by the enemy?" A young man's voice could be heard, and everyone knew it had to be Mikageichi's voice, as only Mikageichi would dare to speak like that to Honda Koichi, who was a Ghoul.
"Mikageichi, you misunderstood . When I said that, I was referring to those artificial Monsters injected with Deep One blood. Their scales are indeed very tough, but that's about it. They are not real Deep Ones, so apart from their scales, their bodies are not much different from ordinary people. Once they are hit in vital areas, they'll die," Honda Koichi chuckled.
Mikageichi snorted and continued, "Alright then, Honda Koichi, let ask you another question. You said that as soon as we release those Deep Ones, the Red Eagle rcenary Group would fall apart on their own. Why is there no reaction at all now?"
Honda Koichi hesitated for a mont and then said sowhat frustratedly, "It's possible that these rcenaries have strong willpower, so they didn't have a ntal breakdown upon seeing the Deep Ones. But Mikageichi, you should also rember that when your people saw for the first ti, several of them were scared out of their minds."
Mikageichi sighed and said helplessly, "I don't want to discuss this with you anymore, Honda Koichi. Just tell what we should do next. Ryochuan Taro, that old dog, probably knows we're here by now. He has probably sent his n our way. If we can't defeat the Red Eagle rcenaries within the next two hours, we'll be sitting ducks."
"Don't worry, Mikageichi. I've already prepared plan B. I've arranged twenty artificial Monsters injected with Ghoul blood to sneak around to the rear of the Sawada Family's mansion. Once they're in position, they will directly attack the Sawada Family's mansion. According to the timing, they should be launching their attack soon. When the Sawada Family's backyard catches fire, we can take advantage of the chaos and launch another attack," Honda Koichi said. After saying this, he hung up the phone.
Yin En didn't hesitate and imdiately dialed Sawada Yinyin's number, informing her of Honda Koichi's plan.
However, Sawada Yinyin revealed that she had already made preparations. Behind the Sawada Family mansion was a garden where various flowers and trees were planted, attracting animals from the nearby mountains. Sawada Yinyin had built a wall, installed an electric fence, and placed surveillance caras. So, as soon as those artificial Ghouls approached, she could activate the electric fence, trapping them.
Furthermore, the Sawada Family mansion had over twenty private bodyguards and advanced security asures, so Sawada Yinyin believed that these artificial Ghouls wouldn't pose a significant threat.
After hanging up, Yin En put down his phone, and Liu Xing asked curiously, "Yin En, who was that person who called you? They managed to infiltrate Mikageichi's side and pass you information."
Yin En chuckled and pointed to Chen Wenbin, saying, "This is all thanks to Chen Wenbin. He didn't accept the undercover mission at the police station that day, so I ntioned it when I went to et Sawada Tsuo. As a result, Sawada Tsuo recomnded to take on this mission. That's how I t Takayanagi Aoyin, who was also undercover. But according to Sawada Tsuo's warning, Takayanagi Aoyin is actually a double agent arranged by Ryochuan Taro. She is investigating both the Dark Willow Gang and us because Ryochuan Taro already knows about what happened at Ziwu City Airport that day, so he's very interested in our affairs."
"So, I and Takayanagi Aoyin pretended to join a nightclub under Dark Willow Gang's jurisdiction, but there was an incident on the way. We were discovered by a Dark Willow Gang mber, which led to Dark Willow Gang chasing us. Fortunately, both Takayanagi Aoyin and I are trained, so we quickly escaped the pursuit."
"However, since Takayanagi Aoyin had appeared in front of Dark Willow Gang a few tis, they quickly found out about her family and kidnapped her family mbers, forcing Takayanagi Aoyin to work for Dark Willow Gang. But because I overheard the phone conversation, I decided to help Takayanagi Aoyin. So, Takayanagi Aoyin pretended to join Dark Willow Gang and secretly provided with information about Dark Willow Gang. I also located Sawada Yinyin and confird the location of Takayanagi Aoyin's family mbers. The Sawada Family's people should have already rescued them."
Yin En grinned proudly.
"So be it. This way, we can stay inford about the Dark Willow Gang's movents and prepare in advance. But for now, I'll go downstairs to inform Sagami Hayato, the leader of the Red Eagle rcenary Group, to prepare," Gu Jun said and went downstairs.
Liu Xing turned to look at the Sawada Family mansion and noticed that the artificial Ghouls had already launched an assault, exposed under the spotlights.
However, as these artificial Ghouls climbed the wall and attempted to enter the Sawada Family mansion, a deep blue arc suddenly appeared on the wall, followed by a series of sparks. The artificial Ghouls let out a cry of pain as they fell.
The well-prepared private bodyguards did not give the artificial Ghouls a chance to escape. They rushed out for the final blow, and to deceive Mikageichi and Hisanobu Ito, the gunfire sounded sowhat chaotic.
As for Sagami Hayato, who received Gu Jun's ssage, he quickly made a decision. He ordered a team of rcenaries to pretend to rescue the Sawada Family mansion, while they were actually hiding behind another building.
With their excellent coordination, Mikageichi and Honda Koichi were indeed fooled. Protected by over ten artificial Deep Ones, dozens of artificial Ghouls launched an attack against the Red Eagle rcenaries.
"I can't believe it. Did Mikageichi transform all the remaining Dark Willow Gang mbers into Monsters? This is insane!" Yin En said incredulously.
Liu Xing nodded, saying with frustration, "Mikageichi seems to have abandoned all restraint to capture Mian Gu Lu. He has transford all his subordinates. It seems he won't be appearing in the human world again."
"Burning one's bridges. If Mikageichi can capture Mian Gu Lu and obtain the blood of the gods, then Honda Koichi can transform Hisanobu Ito and Mikageichi into gods. Then, what would Mikageichi, as a god, have to fear?" Gu Jun mocked.
"Gods may indeed exist, but they certainly won't be created by humans!" Yasaka Mashiro spoke up.
At that mont, Sagami Hayato gave the order, and the Red Eagle rcenaries hiding behind the other building rushed out, joining the others in firing at the artificial Monsters.
However, sothing unexpected happened. A blue shield suddenly appeared in front of each artificial Monster, and bullets hitting the shields made no sound.
"Damn, Honda Koichi is making a move!" Gu Jun furrowed his brow, worried. "Honda Koichi must be hiding among those artificial Ghouls, providing shields for them. With Honda Koichi's strength, those shields can withstand at least a hundred bullets. Now that Honda Koichi is in command, if these artificial Monsters advance and retreat strategically, they may break through the Red Eagle rcenary Group's defenses unhard and engage them in close combat, which is the strength of these artificial Monsters!"
As Gu Jun had said, when the artificial Monsters charged to within five hundred ters of the Red Eagle rcenary Group's defense line, the shields in front of the artificial Deep Ones began to crack. So shields had even shattered.
But at that mont, the artificial Ghouls replaced the artificial Deep Ones at the front. Although these artificial Ghouls were only about two ters tall, less than half the size of the artificial Deep Ones, they seed incapable of blocking bullets for the Deep Ones. However, under Honda Koichi's command, so of the artificial Ghouls managed to jump on top of the artificial Deep Ones, effectively shielding most of their bodies.
"Wow, Akashi Izumi is indeed a sharpshooter. She seized the mont when the shields of the artificial Monsters cracked and decisively pulled the trigger, killing both the artificial Deep One and the artificial Ghoul on its head," Yin En exclaid in shock.
Just as everyone was watching in amazent, KP Li Shunchan suddenly spoke up, "Alright, you've all seen enough of this scene. No matter how it continues, you players are going to be nothing more than spectators, and you might even et your doom. So, I'm starting a Plot Encounter now. Players have two options: the first is to wait and watch, continue to observe, or wait to be sitting ducks. The second is to take advantage of the chaos and leave with Mian Gu Lu, seeking a lifeline. Now, you can cast your votes. You have one minute. If no decision is made within a minute, we'll roll the dice to decide. The final result will follow the majority."
KP Li Shunchan's words were followed by a one-minute countdown on Liu Xing's display.
Everyone exchanged glances, hesitating, and no one imdiately made a decision.
After thirty seconds, Chen Wenbin, who was considered the "conservative," spoke first. "Personally, I think we should follow the Thirty-Six Stratagems. It's better to leave now. After all, those artificial Monsters are at our doorstep. We can't afford to wait and be sitting ducks."
"I agree," Yasaka Mashiro, standing next to Chen Wenbin, nodded.
Liu Xing sighed, about to express his agreent when he suddenly thought of a possibility. He smiled and said, "I object. I believe we haven't lost yet because Otonashi Takuya hasn't returned. KP is now deliberately trying to guide us to leave with Mian Gu Lu and lead us into a trap! "
Five seconds remaining!
Yin En, who had been a steadfast ally of Liu Xing, naturally sided with him without hesitation. Gu Jun, usually calm and collected, also agreed with Liu Xing's idea after so thought.
As for Yoh Asakura, he gritted his teeth and said, "Even if we leave now, we won't be able to escape Mikageichi's pursuit. So, I choose to stay!"
