Running A Cemetery in North America-Chapter 418 - 289: The Arrival of a Formidable Enemy
Evening, San Francisco Port.
An old car parked in the corner, inside were four people holding binoculars, carefully observing along the coastline.
Soon, a cargo ship sailed into the dock and stopped at the shore.
A group of people disembarked, among whom was a strikingly dressed elder in ancient attire.
"Rick, it’s Xu Fu. Xu Fu has really appeared."
A man with binoculars inside the car couldn’t help but exclaim excitedly.
Sitting in the front passenger seat was Rick, the international police officer who had previously approached Sun Yan.
Hearing his colleague’s excited reaction, Rick immediately scolded sternly, "Shut up, Barr. Xu Fu isn’t an ordinary person; any noise might be noticed by him. Do you want to get us killed?"
Saying this, Rick took out the phone and dialed the number Sun Yan had left, wanting to inform Sun Yan about Xu Fu’s arrival in North America.
But just then, there was a sudden knock on the car door from outside.
Everyone was startled and looked up to see an elder standing outside the car window.
He was looking at everyone inside the car with a calm smile and knocked on the car window glass with his hand.
Xu Fu!
Rick’s eyes widened instantly, his hands subconsciously trembling.
He never thought Xu Fu would have already noticed their presence.
Regarding this mysterious figure, always considered dangerous by the International Criminal Police Organization, Rick had always treated him cautiously, trying to locate and arrest him.
But now, with Xu Fu suddenly standing in front of him, Rick was directly at a loss.
"Are you looking for me?" Xu Fu asked with a smile through the car window at the people inside.
"You, you..."
A international police officer sitting in the back seat immediately became nervous and silently pulled out a gun from his pocket.
If Xu Fu showed any abnormal movement, he would shoot without hesitation.
But just then, his neck suddenly snapped, and his head fell to the ground, scaring the international police officer beside him, who immediately drew his gun: "WTF!"
"I know you’ve been investigating me in secret all these years, but I’m no longer in the mood to play cat and mouse with you."
Xu Fu’s smile gradually turned cold, and he placed his hands on the car roof. Instantly, the entire car began to freeze, the surface solidifying into a thick layer of ice.
Seeing this, Rick hurriedly fired at Xu Fu through the car window, but as soon as the bullet left the gun, it stopped at the glass.
"What?" Rick was shocked.
This was clearly not the expected power of the bullet; against Xu Fu’s methods, their firearms, meant to be their means of survival, were rendered ineffective.
The cold inside the car intensified, and the temperature continuously dropped.
The bodies of the international police officers inside began to show frost, even ice mist formed on their hair.
They started losing sensation in their limbs, and as they pleaded, mist sprayed from their mouths, quickly turning into ice beads.
But pleading was of no use, and soon the car interior was completely frozen over, Rick looked at the phone he had managed to connect and shouted with all his might: "Xu Fu, has come to San Francisco..."
As soon as he said this, his body froze into an ice sculpture, losing consciousness completely.
The entire car interior became an icy wonderland, ice solidified everywhere.
With a casual wave, Xu Fu turned and left, not considering for a moment that Rick and the others might survive.
As a Human Immortal, though his mana was inferior to those of Earth Immortals and Celestial Immortals, it was more than enough to kill a few mortals without any problem.
"Who were those people?"
Seeing Xu Fu return, Zhu Tianlin asked indifferently.
"A few troublesome ants, no need to mind them, come with me, I’ll take you to find that Tomb Guardian."
...
"Hello, Rick, what is it, hello?"
In the graveyard, Sun Yan answered the call from Rick, asking in confusion.
But at that moment, Rick’s voice suddenly came from the other side.
"Xu Fu, has come to San Francisco..."
Then the call was abruptly cut off, leaving a sense of uneasiness.
Sun Yan called back, but the other end showed that it was turned off.
"Xu Fu..." Sun Yan frowned. Rick called him, presumably to warn him of this matter.
As an international police officer who had been secretly watching Xu Fu all these years, Rick had always been pursuing Xu Fu in secret.
But when he truly encountered Xu Fu, something happened to Rick.
Although the exact situation on the scene was unknown, it was not hard to guess that Rick was likely already dead.
"Xu Fu has arrived in San Francisco, it seems things have gotten serious."
It’s right when the Six-Star Task appears, but Xu Fu suddenly shows up too, making it hard not to suspect there’s some connection between them.
Especially since Sun Yan has dealt with Xu Fu before and knows he’s an extremely dangerous person.
This visit to America must have some undisclosed purpose.
"Sosia, there needs to be heightened vigilance in the graveyard recently. Take Dahuang and patrol a few extra rounds to prevent any unknown persons from appearing around the graveyard," Sun Yan turned to remind Sosia sitting on the sofa.
"Got it."
...
As night fell, an unexplained large expanse of white fog spread outside the Evangelical Town Cemetery, enveloping the surroundings of Gospel Town.
The scarecrows in the wheat field were shrouded in the fog, adding an inexplicably eerie atmosphere.
Bam!
A slippery hand like a fish fin suddenly reached out from behind the scarecrow, grabbing it and forcibly tearing its entire body into two halves.
Revealing a half-human, half-fish monster standing behind.
It strode through the wheat field, and in the thick fog, near this monster, gradually more and more monsters emerged.
They moved in unison towards the Evangelical Town Cemetery, surrounding it inside and out.
"Woof! Woof! Woof!"
Soon, the sound of dogs barking echoed within the cemetery.
The moment the first monster crawled into the cemetery, the Demon-Slaying Crossbow Tower immediately activated, shooting Demon-Slaying Crossbow Arrows one after another.
The monster was unfazed, swatting them away, but seriously underestimated the power of the Demon-Slaying Crossbow Tower.
After swatting away the first Demon-Slaying Arrow, came the second, third, fourth... a mass of Demon-Slaying Crossbow Towers pinned its chest.
Directly turning this monster into a pincushion, causing it to collapse to the ground on the spot.
Yet the monsters behind showed no fear, even seeing their companion die miserably, they continued to charge towards the cemetery.
As Sun Yan made money, he was generous enough to install a large number of Demon-Slaying Crossbow Towers within the cemetery, totaling up to twenty.
The shooting range covered every corner of the cemetery, ensuring no invading demon monster could dodge the shooting area.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
As more and more monsters invaded, all the Demon-Slaying Crossbow Towers were activated.
A dense web of arrows weaved into action.
For a moment, no monster could breach the defense to approach the main house.
But this commotion quickly caught Sun Yan’s attention in the second-floor bedroom.
He hurried to the window, poking his head out to see the chaos occurring in the cemetery.
"What’s going on," Sun Yan remarked in surprise.
Tonight isn’t the eighth day, and his cemetery isn’t connected to Hell, so why are there so many monsters appearing?
These monsters could not break through the blockade of the Demon-Slaying Crossbow Tower, leaving a pile of corpses in the yard.
Soon a loud roar echoed from the mist surrounding the cemetery, and a gigantic monster measuring seven to eight meters long emerged from the fog.
It crouched on the ground, moving on all fours, resembling a devolved fish-person, covered in dark green scales, its blood-red eyes fixed on Sun Yan who poked his head out from the second floor. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
It swiftly charged into the cemetery, like a heavily armored tank, as the Demon-Slaying Arrows shot at its body became ineffective.
They were deflected by the monster’s scales, causing no damage whatsoever.
Seeing the massive monster about to crash into the main house, then the Celestial Thunder Altar, which had been unresponsive, suddenly activated.
A colossal blast of Celestial Thunder as thick as a barrel shot down from the sky, precisely striking the gigantic monster’s back.
Boom!
The power of Celestial Thunder was astonishing, even though the massive monster’s scale armor was solid, it couldn’t prevent the defense from breaking.
Numerous scales flew, and the electric current penetrated the body, charring its flesh, causing the monster to scream in agony.
The Celestial Thunder Altar continued to rotate, relentlessly controlling the Celestial Thunder for continuous bombardment.
No matter how resilient the gigantic monster’s body, its flesh remains pitifully inadequate in the face of Celestial Thunder.
After more than a dozen strikes of Celestial Thunder, the gigantic monster fell completely to the ground, incapable of moving.
Its body emitted wisps of blue smoke, proving it had been roasted to a crisp.
Woof woof woof!
At this time, Dahuang emerged from the backyard, leaping onto the corpse of the gigantic monster, barking fiercely towards the outside of the cemetery.
It seemed there were even more dangerous enemies lurking in that fog.
