Chapter 443: Chaos! (1)

"I think this time we should help Matsui Yui and go to Scotland to support Matsui Yui’s father. After all, it will be beneficial for us in many ways. Firstly, Matsui Yui’s father’s strength is unquestionable, definitely stronger than all of us here combined. We have no reason to let go of such a powerful ally. Secondly, we can take this opportunity to deal with the Cult of the Cadaver and the Deep Diving Society members who went to hunt down Matsui Yui’s father. This can be considered as cutting off one of their arms, which would benefit our future actions. Lastly, and most importantly, we can use this opportunity to bring the Cult of the Cadaver to light, especially since they are likely involved in the murder case of Scotland’s real estate tycoon, Rogers." Alice said seriously.

Liu Xing nodded and said, "I agree with your point, Alice. As we discussed before, going to Scotland to help Matsui Yui’s father is essentially helping ourselves. So, this trip to Scotland is necessary. The question is, who among us will go?"

Yis People thought for a moment and said, "Firstly, Nan Xiaoniao definitely cannot go with us to Scotland. And Juri Sonoda cannot go either, as she needs to take care of Nan Xiaoniao. So, it seems like I’m the only one from my side who can go."

Just as Zhang Jingxu was about to speak, Chen Fuping preempted, "Because I’m going to pick up my friend Yuan Chen shortly, I’ll stay here to protect Juri Sonoda and the others."

Seeing Chen Fuping choosing to stay behind, Zhang Jingxu could only smile and say, "Since Junior Sister wants to stay, then Lu Tianya will come with me to Scotland. After all, it’s better to have more people for this operation."

So, except for Juri Sonoda, Nan Xiaoniao, and Chen Fuping, everyone else chose to go to Scotland.

After a while, Liu Xing and the others arrived at a secure rear entrance.

The rear entrance of the safe point was actually a long underground passage, and the exit of this rear entrance was the lowest level of a nearby underground parking lot.

Of course, this area had already been bought by the Manchester police department, and the cars that Liu Xing and the others left at the subway entrance yesterday were already parked in the underground parking lot.

So, Liu Xing and the other four remained in one car, while Lu Tianya was arranged by Zhang Jingxu to ride with Alice.

After all, if Lu Tianya was in the car, Liu Xing and the others would not be able to communicate.

As everyone settled in the car, Liu Xing couldn’t help but say, "It seems like this time we have to race against Bai Hecheng and the others. If they meet Matsui Yui’s father first, they will most likely choose to win over Matsui Yui’s father. Then our situation will be even more unfavorable."

Zhang Jingxu nodded and said, "That’s right. The strongest neutral NPC in this module should be Matsui Yui’s father. I think his strength should be comparable to the Gralki’s avatar in Panlong Town. So, if Matsui Yui’s father joins the Cult of the Cadaver, then we’re really in trouble in this module."

Ling Ishikawa chuckled confidently and said, "I don’t think Matsui Yui’s father would stand on the side of the Cult of the Cadaver. Judging from the current situation, Matsui Yui’s father is definitely a person of loyalty and righteousness."

"Yes, that’s what I think too. After all, Matsui Yui’s father specifically had Matsui Yui and Dogo Aige come to Manchester to hide. It must be worried that there might be some unexpected situations, and he can also divert attention for Matsui Yui. So, unless Matsui Yui also joins the Cult of the Cadaver, Matsui Yui’s father would not stand on their side." Yis People said seriously.

Upon hearing Yis People’s words, Liu Xing couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows, feeling like Yis People had made a remarkable prediction...

With that said, Liu Xing and the others chatted as they arrived at the port heading to Scotland. Chris had arranged a yacht ready to depart.

After entering the yacht’s lounge, Alice clapped her hands and said, "If I remember correctly, all of you are newcomers to England, so you might not be very clear about the situation between England and Scotland."

Ling Ishikawa thought for a moment and said, "Um, I just know that Scotland has always been planning something, preparing to leave your Great Britain Alliance. It seems like there have been several referendums."

Alice nodded, somewhat helplessly, and said, "That’s right. The Great Britain Alliance is composed of England, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales. But the reason why the Great Britain Alliance was formed back then was because England was relatively dominant, almost coercing Scotland and other regions to sign the Great Britain Alliance. But now, England’s influence has waned, so Scotland, which has never fully submitted to England, has been planning to leave the Great Britain Alliance."

"So, after we arrive in Scotland later, we must adapt to the local customs. If someone asks whether you support Scotland’s departure from the Great Britain Alliance, just express your support directly to avoid any accidents. After all, there are quite a few extremists in Scotland. And if I’m not mistaken, Rogers’ eldest son seems to be the leader of some extremist organization." Matsui Yui thought for a moment and said seriously.

Liu Xing frowned, feeling worried. "So, you mean, the Cult of the Cadaver also intends to make Scotland and other regions leave the Great Britain Alliance?"

With Liu Xing’s words, everyone fell into contemplation.

After a while, Alice, as a native of England, spoke up, "I think it’s very likely, because, as I said, in recent years, England’s influence within the Great Britain Alliance has been declining. Although it seems like only Scotland is constantly causing trouble and wanting to leave the Great Britain Alliance, Wales and Northern Ireland are also secretly preparing, waiting to see the situation. If Scotland officially leaves the Great Britain Alliance, then Wales and Northern Ireland will also choose to leave the Great Britain Alliance."

"So even if the Cult of the Cadaver manages to control the government of England, they still won’t be able to control the three regions of Scotland. Moreover, when the Cult of the Cadaver changes the government of England, it’s when England’s influence within the Great Britain Alliance is at its lowest. Therefore, at that time, there’s more than an eighty percent chance that Scotland will successfully leave the Great Britain Alliance, and Wales and Northern Ireland also have a probability of over fifty percent of leaving the Great Britain Alliance."

"So now the leader of the Cult of the Cadaver should understand that if he wants to control the government of England, then the Great Britain Alliance will inevitably become history. Unless he can move forward on all fronts and control Scotland and other regions simultaneously, but this possibility is not great. Therefore, I think the current plan of the Cult of the Cadaver is to use helping Scotland and other regions to leave the Great Britain Alliance as a bargaining chip, seeking the support of Scotland and other regions. Among them, helping Rogers’ eldest son commit patricide is very likely one of the steps." Alice’s words made everyone involuntarily take a cold breath. They hadn’t expected that the Cult of the Cadaver not only wanted to overthrow the government of England but also aimed to make the entire Great Britain Alliance history.

If the Cult of the Cadaver succeeds, it would be like a major earthquake in the world political arena, its influence absolutely comparable to the Northern Alliance that claimed to be unbreakable over twenty years ago when it announced its dissolution.

"This damned Cult of the Cadaver really knows how to make a grand entrance, stirring up such big news as soon as they arrive." Yis People sighed.

Liu Xing sighed and said, "Let’s not worry about what will happen later for now. Let’s discuss the current situation. If there are no surprises, the members of the Cult of the Cadaver and the Deep Diving Society should have already arrived in Scotland. So after we disembark, we need to quickly rendezvous with Matsui Yui’s father. But speaking of which, Matsui Yui, do you know where your father is?"

Matsui Yui nodded and said, "If the Cult of the Cadaver and the Deep Diving Society haven’t taken action yet, then my father should be in Glasgow, the largest city in Scotland. When I arrive in Glasgow, I should be able to sense my father’s whereabouts."

Soon, Liu Xing and the others arrived in Glasgow.

Glasgow is located in the estuary area, so the shipbuilding industry is very developed. Therefore, Liu Xing and the others’ yacht docked at a somewhat dilapidated shipyard.

In the shipyard, a bearded man was waiting for Liu Xing and the others.

"I’m John. Chris asked me to come here to assist you." John reached out his hand and smiled.

Alice smiled, shook hands with John, and exchanged information.

After a while, John left first, and Alice said with a serious expression, "The situation is somewhat unfavorable now. Rogers’ eldest son William is organizing a large-scale parade. The atmosphere in Glasgow is tense, and it is very likely to trigger unrest. So if we want to enter the city now, we may be involved in the unrest."

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised, "Oh, so Rogers’ son is called William. That’s actually a good name."

The William mentioned by Liu Xing refers to the famous national hero of Scotland, William Wallace, who led the Scottish rebellion against the rule of England.

Alice shrugged and nodded, saying, "By the way, Rogers’ family name is Wallace, claiming that their ancestors were William Wallace himself. Therefore, Rogers’ eldest son now claims to be the reincarnation of William Wallace and will lead the people of Scotland to resist the rule of England once again."

"It seems that this William knows how to capitalize on popularity. But I heard that there are many famous families in Scotland named Wallace, and these families all claim to be descendants of William Wallace." Lu Tianya said with a smile.

"Of course, because William Wallace is a national hero of Scotland. Plus, due to England’s deliberate suppression, the specific deeds and direct descendants of William Wallace are almost impossible to verify, leaving behind various legends. So many Scottish families choose to use the name of William Wallace." Zhang Jingxu said.

At this moment, Matsui Yui suddenly said, "Oh no, I can now sense my father’s location within the urban area of Glasgow, so we must enter the urban area of Glasgow."

Alice nodded and said seriously, "Well then, it seems we have no choice but to enter the urban area of Glasgow. Because William has applied for three days for this large-scale parade, we can’t wait until three days later to enter the urban area of Glasgow. Besides, this large-scale parade could turn into unrest at any time. But John has already helped us prepare local police cars and uniforms in Scotland. Let’s change into them later and enter the urban area of Glasgow. That way, we’ll be safer."

So, the group rested in the shipyard for half an hour before John brought three police cars and ten sets of uniforms.

After changing into the uniforms, Liu Xing and the others got into separate police cars.

Liu Xing, Ling Ishikawa, and Yis People were in one car; Zhang Jingxu, Lu Tianya, and Hu Li were in another car; Alice, Ryuzaki, and Matsui Yui’s couple were in another car.

The group drove the police cars into the urban area of Glasgow.

As John had said before, the urban area of Glasgow was already crowded with people, and the crowds participating in the parade had filled every street, so Liu Xing and the others’ police cars soon became immobile.

So, after some discussion, Liu Xing and the others decided to park the police cars on the side of the road and then walk.

"It seems that the situation is even more troublesome than we imagined. I didn’t expect so many people to take to the streets for the game." Liu Xing couldn’t help but sigh.

Alice sighed and said helplessly, "With the current situation, I think whether the Cult of the Cadaver can seize the government of England or not, Scotland will probably leave the Great Britain Alliance. After all, that’s the general trend."

At this moment, Matsui Yui, holding a map, finally determined his father’s location.

"I can now confirm that my father’s approximate location should be at Glasgow Cathedral, and the other clan members are around my father, and there have been no casualties so far." Matsui Yui said affirmatively.

Liu Xing glanced at the map and found that their current location, compared to Glasgow Cathedral, was not too far away.

This made Liu Xing couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "It seems that we came just in time..."

Before Liu Xing could finish, KP Li Shunchan suddenly spoke up, "Because all players in this module have arrived in Scotland, the sudden Mission of this module—The Great Chaos of Scotland—will commence in five minutes! Please prepare, players!"
