Chapter 503 Operation Plan

This area north of the North was commonly addressed by Watchmen as Area 46 of the North.

With water and vegetation, it was a better place for human life than the wild places of the North.

Many nomadic peoples lived in this area and gathered together to form villages or tribes.

Of course, they lived a modern life as well. They sold their cattle and sheep to the outside world, and

they had amazing milk tea.

They lived on the grassland and were carefree.

Unfortunately, they encountered a night they would never forget. They saw meteors in the sky, so they

wished on them, and then the meteors fell on them. Strange creatures jumped from the meteors and

rushed into the villages, tearing people to pieces.

The place instantly became a tragedy. Some fled, some hid, and many died for good.

Four hours were not exactly long. Twenty-one cars quickly arrived at their first destination, which was a

collection of yurts. By this time, the place was a mess. Most parts were burned, and there was a

pungent smell of blood.

Right now, a squad from Night Watch was carrying out the search and rescue work.

Those twenty-one cars arrived. Other than Gerald and the others, the rest were all dressed in Night

Watch’s uniform with a piece of red cloth on their arms. It was a symbol, indicating that they were from

Elite Teams.

Seeing Gerald and the others, the captain of the rescuing team from Night Watch, who was searching

the place, immediately ran over with cold sweat on his forehead.

Countless Watchmen were in the North. However, it was rare to see hundreds of members from

Elite Teams showing up together. The man was only the captain of an ordinary squad from Night

Watch, so he was under some pressure when he saw them.

When he saw the hilts of the two sabers on Gerald’s back, he even trembled. Then he looked at the

people next to Gerald and couldn’t help but swallow.

He thought, for three years, no one has seen Team 11762, and its former members have all become

captains.

Gerald, the legend of Night Watch, has disappeared for three years. Yet a few months ago, the

organization announced that Team 11762 would be reorganized, and the former members began to

hand over their work and prepare to return.

Now, apparently, the legendary squad of Night Watch has reappeared.

He looked at Gerald and couldn’t help but swallow. Then he walked up and said in a low voice

seriously, “I am Owen Tate, the captain of Team 18534 from Night Watch, Watchman No. 2450.”

Gerald let out a breath and looked at the messy ground. “What is the situation now?”

Owen sighed and then said in a serious tone, “There is… no one alive inside. I don’t know if anyone

has escaped. From the M.O., I believe Blue Elite Ghosts were the chief culprit. We have four squads

from Night Watch at the nearest point, but we are not that good on average, so we have been stationed

on the edge of the North. From the report of our men… Elite Ghosts are dispersing, and it seems that

they want to destroy. Also, those teams took a lot of casualties.”

Gerald frowned. He sensed that the reason why these Elite Ghosts had landed here was not because

of some deviation. Instead, it was intentional.

Triston frowned and walked up. “A lot of casualties?”

“Yes. It’s true that we are not very capable, and it’s hard for an entire team to fight one Blue Elite

Ghost,” Owen smiled bitterly and said. “If possible, I would like to go in and search. Yet we drew lots,

and I was left behind to search and rescue.”

Owen’s eyes were complicated.

He was indeed a Watchman. He knew that he might die by going inside, yet he did not hesitate.

Sometimes, being alive was a kind of torment.

As he spoke, his eyes turned slightly red.

Gerald glanced at Owen, patted his shoulder, and said, “Go ahead and do your work. Now that we’re

here, we will take care of it. Don’t worry.”

“Watchman No. 0, please. Fix them as soon as possible. Let our people come back safely and help

more ordinary people,” Owen said with red eyes.

Gerald pounded his chest with one hand and said seriously, “I promise.”

Owen nodded. After Owen left, everyone looked at Gerald.

“Shit! I am Watchman No. 0, OK?” Triston could not help but curse.

Yet he was ignored. Even Troy, who usually didn’t see eye to eye with Gerald, looked at Gerald and

said, “Tell us what you are thinking.”

Gerald did not waste any time. Instead, he had to grasp every second. He exhaled and said, “Trying to

get all these people together now is obviously not going to work. Give me the tablet. I want to see the

map.”

Beside him, Kristen had already pulled up the map and handed the tablet over to Gerald.

Gerald slowly let out a breath and said, “This is a huge area, and there are only twenty-one teams even

counting us in, which is not enough. So, I suggest that we split up.”

“What?” Everyone looked at Gerald in surprise.

“We are all from Elite Teams. For most of us, I believe it’ll take five people at most to deal with a Blue

Elite Ghost. So, we should split up, and each team will be responsible for a region. In each region, you

will get to decide how you want to divide your teams. I’m not that familiar with the strength of each team

right now.” Gerald exhaled. “Also, I suggest that we leave the cars here. We are much faster than cars

on the snow.”

It was already snowing in the North in October.

Troy nodded and said, “Fine by me.”

“OK,” some of the other captains hurriedly said.

Triston muttered, “Actually, that’s what I am thinking, too.”

Gerald looked at Triston, feeling speechless for a second. Then he quickly and calmly continued,

“Let’s plan our routes now. Agepsta Mountain is near this mountain, which makes it more dangerous,

so our team will be in charge.”

The others nodded, and then each of them asked for a route. In such a case, the area they were about

to search for was pretty much covered.

After making sure the routes were set, Gerald exhaled and said, “Everyone has a communication tool

and a code name. If you find something, tell the people around you as soon as possible, and they will

rush over to help. We need to minimize the damage.”

Then he looked at Triston intently and said, “Lastly… Most importantly, if you encounter Red Elite

Ghosts…”

He let out a breath and said, “Don’t try to fight. Whatever it is doing, run at once and let me know, and

I’ll get there as fast as I can. Red Elite Ghosts… aren’t something you can handle now. Each of them

qualifies to be in the top three on the Sun List.”

“Why the fuck are you looking at me when you’re talking?” Triston was frustrated. “Am I that stupid? Do

you think I will act on impulse?”

Many people nodded.

“Alright now. Let’s go back to our teams and get our stuff together. When we’re done, we will set off,”

Gerald said.

Everyone went back, and Gerald also walked to his team’s car. He glanced at the team members and

said, “Everyone knows the plan now. My suggestion is that we split into four groups.”

Theo frowned and said, “Boss… All eight of us can fight Blue Elite Ghosts alone. Why don’t we just

split into eight groups?”

Gerald shook his head and said, “I want to be safe. Our team’s route is actually the most dangerous.

According to them, Elite Ghosts are heading outside the North. We’re on the border and near Agepsta

Mountain, so there’s a good chance we’ll bump into Red Elite Ghosts.”

Then he exhaled and said, “I don’t want anything to happen to any of you. So, we four super experts

will take one each, and we will fight in four groups.”
