LRAB Chapter 112 Assault
Chapter 112 Assault
When the advance team was ambushed by the insect-like monsters, the scout who had been sent ahead to observe the movements of Wansheng Shopping Mall reported the situation of the "Nest" to Wang Xiao.
"Boss Wang, before you arrived, a large number of worm-like monsters left the nest."
After listening to the scout's report, Wang Xiao asked, "How many were there? Do you have the specific time?"
"There were probably three or four hundred of them, about an hour and a half ago."
The scouts gave the group a rough estimate of the quantity and time.
Qin Huai'an spoke up: "It seems the advance team has successfully drawn the insects' attention as planned. Boss Wang, shouldn't it be our turn to act now?"
Looking at the nest in the distance, Wang Xiao took out the map drawn by Wan Menghuai and placed it on the ground, and began to confirm the area he was responsible for with the various forces again.
Wansheng Shopping Mall has a total of six major areas.
Wang Xiao divided these six areas into A to F.
Area B, which covers the largest area, is primarily managed by the Qin Group, which has the largest number of members and the strongest overall strength, with two intermediate forces assisting and cooperating.
The number of players reached nearly 250, accounting for almost one-third of the entire main team.
Wang Xiao said seriously, "President Qin, Area B is Wansheng's food area. According to Wan Menghuai and his team's intelligence, it's also where the insects gather the most. Please be careful when cleaning it up."
Qin Huai'an smiled and said, "Boss Wang, as your only partner, please rest assured about the strength of our Qin Group."
Wang Xiao said with a solemn expression, "I believe in the strength of the Qin Group, but the insects are evolving too fast, and the information brought back by Wan Menghuai and his team is not comprehensive. We can't say for sure what might happen inside..."
Upon hearing this, Qin Huai'an also put away his smile and replied with a serious expression: "Don't worry, Boss Wang, if we really encounter a situation that even the Qin Group can't solve, I will have someone contact you immediately."
As the absolute helmsman of the Qin Group, he naturally understood the caution in Wang Xiao's words, but he had enough confidence in his team.
Compared to the Qin Group, which once needed the Peace Hotel's assistance, the Qin Group today is far more powerful than it was back then.
Whether it's the number of people, the equipment, or the number of ability users, they hold an absolute advantage among the surrounding forces!
If it weren't for concerns about Wang Xiao's Peace Hotel, the Qin Group would have already forcibly integrated the surrounding forces.
Although the Peace Hotel prevents the Qin Group from openly taking action against the forces involved in this operation without a suitable reason, it does not prevent them from demonstrating their current strength at this time.
After all, instilling fear in other forces is also a means of domination.
A large part of the reason Qin Huai'an was willing to accept this operation was that he wanted to take this opportunity to solidify his leading position in Chenghua District.
Regarding Qin Huai'an's ideas, although Wang Xiao intended to support other forces, he did not intend to interfere excessively.
Because his only goal from beginning to end was stability...
Wang Xiao's most important goal right now is to ensure the smooth operation of the Peace Hotel, and any force or monster that tries to trample on this bottom line will be his enemy!
Wang Xiao never showed mercy to his enemies, just like these insects that had come to this world from the abyss.
Seeing Qin Huai'an's confident expression, Wang Xiao said no more and nodded, "Okay, then Section B will be up to you, President Qin."
After speaking, Wang Xiao's gaze returned to the map, and he pointed to several other areas.
"Area C is the central atrium area of Wansheng Shopping Mall. The terrain here is relatively open, but there are also quite a few insects, making it one of the potential nesting locations."
According to the plan, the Dawn Mutual Aid Association of Chairman Li, along with Boss Liu and Commander Peng, will carry out a joint cleanup operation.
As for who will take overall command, that's for you three to decide among yourselves. Do you have any problems with that?
The three forces—Li Changsu's Dawn Mutual Aid Association, Liu Dao's Blood Flag, and Peng Shan's Hunting Group—are all currently rated as intermediate forces by the hotel.
If these three forces choose to unite, even a powerful group like the Qin Group would have to carefully consider whether its teeth are sharp enough and its appetite is large enough to swallow them up.
After a brief discussion, the three decided that Li Changsu of the Dawn Mutual Aid Association would take on this responsibility.
"Boss Wang, you can rest assured and leave Area C to us."
With the heads of the two major areas, C and B, determined, the remaining four areas became relatively easier to manage.
Area D is a storage area. Although it is not particularly large, the environment is complex and the possibility of insects lurking cannot be ruled out. However, compared to Areas C and B, it is significantly less dangerous. Wang Xiao entrusted it to two small forces.
Zones E and F, and Zone A, are respectively the mall's underground parking lot, the mall's main sales area, and the connecting auxiliary buildings.
Since the three locations are basically connected, apart from the "Iron Wall" which is in charge of the advance team and another medium-sized force, the remaining medium-sized force and a small force will act together with the Peace Hotel.
At this point, all 1100+ people from thirteen factions, including the Peace Hotel, have been deployed to the operation to eliminate the insects.
2:30 PM.
Outside Wansheng Shopping Mall, the main team's various squads have arrived at their designated positions as planned.
In order not to alert the "nest", the insects along the way were dealt with by the most skilled stealthy ability users in each squad.
But everyone knew this was only a temporary phenomenon.
Once the various forces penetrate deeper into the nest, according to the intelligence gathered by Yue Man and his group, the insects inside will soon discover them.
Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the operation as much as possible and not give the Nest any chance to react, attacking is their best option at present.
The advantage of doing this is that even if the commander inside the nest realizes that it is under attack, there will be a brief delay because it is facing attacks from all sides at the same time.
Of course, this is just the most ideal scenario predicted by Wang Xiao and others.
The true situation can only be known once you go inside.
After all, in battle, the situation rarely goes as planned.
Insects evolve very quickly, and no one can say for sure what new monsters will emerge from this batch of disgusting insects.
After finding his way to the vicinity of the shopping mall, Wang Xiao stood in front of the window of an abandoned commercial building and carefully examined the situation of the mall.
This once bustling shopping mall has been completely transformed by the insects that have taken over it.
Most of those smooth, reflective glass windows are now shattered, revealing the dark interior of the shopping mall.
The exterior walls were also covered with all sorts of strange, unidentified viscous substances.
The entire building exudes an extremely dangerous aura.
Xue Wu stood beside Wang Xiao and began to report on the situation of each team:
"Boss, the Qin Group has entered the outer perimeter of Zone B, the Dawn Mutual Aid Association has entered the passage to Zone C, and the two forces in Zone D are also in position. We are ready to launch our assault."
Wang Xiao nodded and said calmly, "Proceed according to plan. Once the teams have completed the encirclement, launch a unified attack."
Xue Wu, you are the commander-in-chief in this battle. No one here can match your command and coordination skills. Manage all personnel effectively and stay alert for any unusual situations.
Knowing the heavy responsibility he bore, Xue Wu bowed and said, "Yes."
Wang Xiao's gaze fell on the main entrance of Wansheng Shopping Mall.
Even from a great distance, he could see something wriggling in the dimly lit space inside.
According to Yue Man and his team's intelligence, the first and second floors of the mall are covered with a large number of insect eggs. The higher up the mall, the more insect eggs there are, and the denser the insect patrols become. The location that commands the insects is very likely on the top floor.
This means that to destroy the nest, you have to clear it layer by layer.
Just then, Qin Huai'an's voice came through the communicator: "Boss Wang, our Qin Group is ready and can begin at any time."
Immediately afterwards, Li Changsu's voice rang out: "The Dawn Mutual Aid Association is in position."
The heads of the other regions also reported on the situation.
Wang Xiao picked up the communicator and slowly said, "Start the operation!"
