Chapter 281: The Appearance of the Police
🕑 Added 2025-01-25 11:57:49 +0000 UTCAmeliana listened attentively, occasionally nodding to show that she was following along.
After a while, Mio finally finished her story. She then looked at Ameliana, hoping that the story was helpful enough. "That's what happened. Many people left because they were afraid of the consequences of the fight that was said to occur—between the Anbu and a group of crazies they referred to."
"Strangely, even though they looked intimidating, the Anbu still helped those who couldn't leave on their own, like the elderly or the sick, to leave the Southern District. I don't mean to defend them, but at least they were responsible for the warning they gave. That's why I chose to trust them and leave."
Mio finished her sentence with a firm tone, showing that she was confident in her decision.
Ameliana looked at Mio thoughtfully. "Alright, Mio. Your information is very useful. We will investigate further soon."
The atmosphere around them fell silent, only the sound of breaths from the police officers could be heard as they processed the new information.

Meanwhile, in a hidden location, several figures were seen watching a building from a distance. The silence of the night was only broken by the rustling wind carrying a tense aroma. Suddenly, a masked man emerged from the shadows.
"What’s going on?" Haruto asked with a serious face, his sharp eyes fixed on the masked man.
"The police have appeared," replied the masked man, who turned out to be one of the shadow clones disguised as an Anbu member.
"Damn! Why did they come so quickly? Aren't the police supposed to always arrive at the end?" Haruto grumbled in annoyance, his jaw tightening in frustration.
"So, what should we do?" The shadow clone immediately asked, its voice sounding a bit rushed.
"Just hold them off for a few minutes," Haruto said coldly, his mind racing. "I will start detonating all the Explosive Tags."
The shadow clone nodded. "Understood." In an instant, the shadow clone vanished into the darkness, leaving Haruto and his group.
"Then, should we start now?" asked another shadow clone standing next to Haruto. The clone's face, obscured by the mask, showed readiness to act.
"Yes, let's begin. Give orders to the first group to issue a warning, and to the others to launch an attack immediately," Haruto replied, nodding his head, his expression remaining serious and focused.
The shadow clone in the first group quickly moved, disguising themselves as Anbu. They swiftly issued orders to launch the attack.
Meanwhile, the third group, which had previously scoured the Southern District to warn the residents, began activating the Explosive Tags they had planted. Carefully, they chose strategic locations, ensuring that the explosions would not only destroy the underground area but also the surface of the Southern District.
This third group, besides being tasked with warning the residents to leave the area, also secretly attached Explosive Tags at various key points. Every step they took was meticulously planned, ensuring total destruction would occur when the final order was given.
The goal of these explosions was clear: to kill as many Soul Collectors as possible while expanding the impact to encompass the entire Southern District.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Explosion after explosion shook the night air, echoing throughout the Southern District. The flames shooting high into the sky could be seen from afar, forcing everyone from other districts to turn and witness the destruction unfolding before their eyes.
The second group, realizing that the attack had begun, quickly moved into action. They started activating various Explosive Tags that had been planted in strategic locations during their infiltration mission into the underground. Every step they took was calculated, ensuring that no corner would escape destruction.
