Chapter 466: Arrival of Miguel
Liu Xing looked at Isabella and said seriously, "So, Miss Isabella, would you be willing to help us deal with the Cult of the Cadaver?"
Isabella nodded without hesitation and said with a smile, "Of course, I would be willing. If you hadn’t come here today, I was planning to find you in a safer place. My damned brother is preparing to retaliate against me. The reason he possessed Wang Qi’s body is because I commanded a Ghoul to ambush him, forcing him to abandon his original form."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xing remembered that the Ghoul in EinsCastle had actually been controlled by Isabella. So, when Gary entered the basement, Isabella had already manipulated the Ghoul to attack him, leading Gary to choose ’soul projection’ and possess Wang Qi’s body.
Finally, everything made sense.
However, Liu Xing’s main concern now was whether Isabella genuinely wanted to help them or not because Isabella was a cunning fox.
"So, Miss Isabella, how do you plan to cooperate with us?" Zhang Jingxu suddenly asked.
Isabella rubbed her chin and smiled, saying, "I can provide you with a lot of intelligence on the Manchester branch of the Cult of the Cadaver because I have a reliable undercover agent embedded there. When necessary, I will have that undercover agent assist you."
Liu Xing raised an eyebrow, knowing that the undercover agent Isabella referred to was most likely the Ghoul.
"Okay, Miss Isabella, what do you need us to do?" Alice continued to inquire.
Isabella shrugged and said, "As long as you can eliminate the Manchester branch of the Cult of the Cadaver. However, I must inform you of one thing now: the Cult of the Cadaver is preparing a major event in Manchester. So, you need to speed up your actions."
Yis People furrowed their brows and hastily asked, "Oh, Miss Isabella, do you know the specific plans of the Cult of the Cadaver?"
Isabella shook her head, somewhat helpless, and said, "I’m not very clear about the specific plans because my undercover agent hasn’t reached that level of intelligence yet. But what I can confirm now is that the Cult of the Cadaver has begun preparations. The reason is simple: many followers of the Cult of the Cadaver have been entering the Manchester city area in batches recently, and the door in the cave behind EinsCastle has also been opened recently."
The door?!
Liu Xing was astonished. "Miss Isabella, you mean the door that leads to Dreamrealm?"
Isabella nodded, affirming, "Yes, that door does lead to Dreamrealm. The other end of the door is the territory of the Ghouls. My damned brother joined the Cult of the Cadaver after entering Dreamrealm and making contact with the Ghouls. Moreover, the Magic Spells he used to possess Wang Qi’s body were taught to him by an elder Ghoul."
"Miss Isabella, have you been to the Ghoul territory in Dreamrealm? What are the Ghouls like there?" Alice asked.
Isabella thought for a moment and said, "I have been to the Ghoul territory in Dreamrealm, but that was decades ago. With the strength of the Ghouls at that time, they should have easily occupied Manchester because there were over a hundred thousand Ghouls."
"Gasp."
Liu Xing and the others were shocked to hear that there were so many Ghouls.
"But you can rest assured. The door was restricted by a powerful entity long ago, so now, even stronger Ghouls cannot pass through it to our world. Therefore, it’s impossible for the Ghouls from Dreamrealm to launch a large-scale invasion of Manchester. I suspect the reason the Cult of the Cadaver opened that door is to seek some technical and material assistance from the elder Ghouls in Dreamrealm, such as some kind of formation!" Isabella first reassured everyone, then sent their hearts racing.
In the Cthulhu RPG Game, if Magic Spells were like a flintlock rifle that often misfired, then formations were like powerful cannons.
Although the casting requirements for formations were high and required a large amount of materials to construct, once successfully deployed, the effects of formations could change the entire module’s layout.
Suddenly, Liu Xing’s mobile phone rang.
Looking at the caller ID, it was Miguel.
Liu Xing remembered arranging for Miguel to come to England to help him a few days ago. But because the current Miguel couldn’t arrive in England through normal means, he had said he didn’t know how long it would take him to reach England. So, Liu Xing had almost forgotten about it.
Realizing this, Liu Xing knew that Miguel had been watching him just now.
So, Liu Xing answered the phone, "Hello, Miguel, are you nearby now?"
"Yeah, I’m on the rooftop of the building behind you, Master. But I just found a suspicious-looking vehicle parked at the entrance of the villa area, with four people inside, all strapped with remote-controlled bombs!" Miguel said seriously over the phone.
Liu Xing furrowed his brow. Miguel’s abilities were unquestionable. After all, after undergoing modifications by the Migo, the current Miguel was comparable to an advanced version of the Terminator. So, Liu Xing was sure Miguel wouldn’t be mistaken.
Moreover, it was obvious that the four people with suicide bombs in the car were from the Cult of the Cadaver. Because, at this time, the only organization planning terrorist attacks in Manchester was the Cult of the Cadaver. Moreover, if this terrorist attack succeeded, it would kill or severely injure Liu Xing’s group, Isabella, and even wipe out high-level figures in Manchester. Then, the administrative efficiency of Manchester would be greatly compromised.
So, what should be done now?!
Before Liu Xing could think, Miguel sounded a bit urgent, "Master, the people in the car are making phone calls now. I’ve started to monitor their conversation... They’ve confirmed your location and are about to drive in for a suicide terrorist attack. Should I take them out directly?!"
"Yes!" Liu Xing said without hesitation.
A moment later, the sound of dice rolling could be heard.
One second later, Liu Xing heard four muffled gunshots.
"Master, I’ve successfully killed the four individuals. However, the remote-controlled bombs on them haven’t been detonated. It seems that the detonators are not on them. Should I detonate the bombs directly?" Miguel asked.
Liu Xing thought for a moment and said seriously, "For safety reasons, Miguel, you should detonate those remote-controlled bombs. But try to minimize casualties. After the detonation is successful, leave immediately. We’ll contact each other by phone."
"Understood."
Miguel hung up the phone.
Then, Liu Xing heard a loud explosion coming from the entrance of the villa area.
"Liu Xing, what’s that explosion?" Zhang Jingxu looked at Liu Xing in surprise.
And so did Ling Ishikawa and the others.
