Absolutely Not! / Decapitation Plan

He still wouldn't give up.

Her intuition told her that something interesting was likely to happen next.

Wouldn't it be a shame not to go?

But Leizi was like a stubborn turtle that had swallowed a weight; she showed no sign of backing down on this matter, and even picked up her own staff, holding it up against the Nian in front of her.

She didn't intend to actually use force, but the act of raising her weapon was enough to express her stance.

She could be persuaded by Nian on other matters, but on matters of principle like this, absolutely not!

Helpless, Nian also lowered her head.

But a moment later, her eyes suddenly shifted.

"Leizi, I can't go to Chernobog, right?"

"... Yes, what do you want to do?"

Seeing Nian's state, Leizi became vigilant.

Her intuition told her that Nian was going to cause trouble again.

"It's nothing~ It's just that other members of our Sui Family went too~"

"Um?!"

"Hmm~"

Chapter 177 Absolutely Not Allowed!

Inside the Lungmen, a tense atmosphere began to spread.

Originally, in their eyes, the Reunion Movement was just a distant organization advocating the rights of the Infected that had sprung up in Ursus... Even knowing that those guys were acting radically, most people didn't have much of a reaction.

After all, disasters are everywhere in this world, Reunion Movement is just one of the more recent ones.

But when the other party actually appeared in front of them, they couldn't help but start to panic.

No one wants danger to appear before them.

Busy crowds began frantically buying food, and noise and chaos spread.

Meanwhile, Texas and Lappland were running at top speed.

The two worked together seamlessly, darting through the city's skyscrapers. Their close coordination made them feel as if they had returned to the days of the past.

"I thought you and your group of friends would wait patiently."

As she ran, Lappland turned her head to look at Texas beside her and let out a teasing laugh.

Texas, however, remained silent with a cold expression.

Anxiety was nagging at her mind.

Lappland curled her lip when she saw Texas's expression.

"Although we acted impulsively, we now have no idea where Ms. Maria is..."

"Rhodes Island will find out."

"Um?"

Lappland turned her head strangely and looked at Texas.

Are you so sure?

"... Um."

Texas gritted her teeth and finally nodded firmly.

If we were to ask who is most likely to find Lady Maria right now... without a doubt, it would be the people of Rhodes Island.

Texas knew that with their information network, they definitely couldn't find Ms. Maria, who had left Lungmen the previous night, and directly asking the Lungmen Guard Department would certainly not yield any answers.

Therefore, at this time, the best partner is Rhodes Island.

They came to Lungmen seeking to join Lungmen against the Reunion Movement, so they must know something.

Even if they don't know... Texas can still cooperate with them and log into that mobile platform together!

No matter what Maria wanted to do, this time, she would absolutely not let Maria leave her!

Texas took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and her expression gradually hardened.

A sharp aura emanated from her, and her eyes gradually turned fierce.

After noticing the other person's expression, Lappland gradually curled the corners of her mouth into a smile.

"What? You can still make that kind of expression...?"

"Shut up!"

"Hmph~"

Lappland's lips curled up, but she still kept her mouth shut quietly.

Before long, the Twin Wolves also arrived at Rhodes Island.

To their surprise, Hoshiguma and Chen were there too!

"Miss Texas? And..."

"Just call me Lappland, cute little bunny~"

Lappland chuckled as she carried her oddly shaped longsword, then turned to look around.

This appears to be a joint operation.

On the Lungmen side, Hoshiguma, Chen, and several fully armed soldiers stepped forward.

On Rhodes Island's side, the teams were a bit disorganized.

Two cats, one carrying a chainsaw, and the other surrounded by a pile of things that look like coffins.

A large dog that didn't look very smart kept looking around.

Then there's Rhodes Island's trio: Amiya, Kal'tsit, and that woman who calls herself the Doctor.

And a Blood Demon with a resentful expression.

This strange combination made Lappland's brow twitch slightly.

Although it's safe to assume this isn't the full force Rhodes Island has sent, Lappland was able to spot at least two minors in that brief scan.

Rhodes Island is sending its children to the battlefield?

Even families and gangs in Siracusa wouldn't do something like this, would they?

For a time, Lappland was filled with suspicion about the organization.

Texas, on the other hand, took the initiative to step forward and start talking to the others.

But after only a few exchanges, her expression turned rather unpleasant.

"Mrs. Maria... you didn't know?!"

Texas looked grim.

Meanwhile, Lappland was also frowning.

She decisively turned her head and looked at everyone present.

The gaze finally fell upon the Lungmen Guard Department.

Hoshiguma and the others were also somewhat helpless.

"We... we really don't know Maria's whereabouts."

To be honest, they were also a little flustered.

After all, in their calculations, the Chernobog platform should not hit the Lungmen for at least another week.

But they didn't know exactly what the Reunion Movement had done to shorten the journey so quickly.

Now, they only have one day left...

But there's no time to investigate whose fault it is.

The most important question now is how to stop the other side.

Therefore, they had no choice but to seek help from Rhodes Island.

The original plan remains unchanged... but instead of using the mobile platform that is still under preparation, they will use Rhodes Island's ships to force their way in!

Therefore, they had to make some concessions to Rhodes Island.

Fortunately, Rhodes Island did indeed intend to help... After several discussions, everything was settled, and they prepared to depart.

As for Maria...

Although Hoshiguma and Chen also care, there are clearly more important things to deal with right now!

"I'm sorry, we'll help with the search for Maria later, but right now, we have to act."

At this moment, Hoshiguma stepped forward, said a few words to the Twin Wolves, and then turned to leave.

They don't have much time left. If they aren't stopped quickly, who knows what will happen next!

But Texas, standing to the side, gritted her teeth.

"Let's go too!"

"Huh?"

"Let's go too..."

Texas's expression was serious. After taking a deep breath, she turned her head and looked at Amiya beside her.

"We want to go too!"

"But..."

Amiya seemed hesitant, but the Doctor reached out and gently patted the girl's shoulder, giving her confidence.

"In that case... I understand, Miss Texas, but I want you to understand that this operation is extremely dangerous. If you want to participate, you will need to follow our instructions!"

This was Amiya's only condition.

Although she didn't know why Texas and the others were so convinced that Maria was on the platform, things had come to this point, and they didn't have any more time to argue.

They were aware of Texas's fighting capabilities, and at this moment, having more helpers would be best.

However, the prerequisite is that Texas must follow orders and prioritize the overall situation.

Otherwise, not only will they be unable to find Maria, but their operations will also be affected!

This is absolutely unacceptable!

Chapter 178 The Decapitation Plan

"We have arrived at the target location and are adjusting our position..."

"The target distance is..."

"Warning: Enemy detected at the original login point. Requesting activation of the backup login point."

"Received, en route to the meeting point..."

On Rhodes Island, the members are working diligently to adjust their plans.

Right beside them, parallel to each other, stood a massive, imposing structure, its walls gleaming with the light of a giant rock formation. The structure itself was a sculpted, imposing presence. The surrounding landscape was a breathtaking sight.

Even so, the howling wind and smoke around them still filled one with despair.

"This is already the maximum distance; any closer, and Rhodes Island risks colliding with them."

The voices of the control team members came through the headphones.

They are doing everything they can to maintain Rhodes Island's current stability.

But the mobile platform on the other side thinks differently.

Its movement was like that of a drunkard, drifting from time to time. Fortunately, Rhodes Island was relatively small compared to this large platform, so it was able to dodge for a while.
