Chapter 53 The Enforcer's Obstacle



The onlookers' curiosity grew even stronger upon witnessing this scene.

What exactly does this holy water taste like that could make someone look so intoxicated?

The refugees rushed forward to queue, while those in the safe zone, who seemed to know about the water, also stood at the back and waited.

Since the Holy Son said that everyone has a share, he will surely do so.

Therefore, the people in the safe zone are not in a hurry to compete with the refugees, since doing so would damage their own image.

Soon, migrants from other places lined up at the front of the queue.

With trembling hands, he reached out the tattered plastic container and carefully filled a small cup with holy water.

Amid the curious gazes of onlookers, the refugee tilted his head back and drank the water.

A sweet taste instantly flowed smoothly down my throat.

The refugee's eyes widened instantly, filled with disbelief. He had never imagined that water could be so sweet and delicious.

In this desolate world of torrential rain, refugees like him had long been accustomed to the polluted water mixed with acid.

Dirty water always leaves people with a dry throat after drinking it, and can sometimes even cause illness and suffering.

But this time, the refugees experienced an unprecedented freshness and purity.

It was as if a magical spring of life was flowing through his body, awakening every thirsty cell within him.

His face showed surprise and disbelief, and he couldn't help but shout:

"This...this is real water!"

Then, overcome with excitement, he shouted again:

"It's holy water!"

After gaining the approval of the refugees, the surrounding refugees all rushed forward, eager to taste the legendary holy water.

Every migrant's face was filled with anticipation and curiosity.

After they reached the front of the line and drank the miraculous holy water, the refugees all showed expressions of satisfaction and surprise.

"What does this holy water taste like?" Fu Xiyao was extremely curious as she watched the refugees' reactions, her eyes filled with longing.

Li Yu also wanted to try it and see what this holy water, praised by everyone, tasted like.

Just as the two approached, intending to join the queue at the back.

Li Yu suddenly saw the person standing in front of the water tank, and her expression immediately turned cold.

It's that executive officer.

"Line up properly, don't cut in line!" the executive officer repeatedly shouted.

It was the same officer who had confiscated their coal who was now standing upright in front of the water jug, maintaining order among the displaced people.

"No need to take it." Li Yu suppressed his anger and spoke in a deep voice.

With this executive officer around, even if he went up in line to collect it today, I'm afraid they wouldn't give it to him.

Moreover, since Li Yu killed the assassins sent by the executive officer, the executive officer might only recognize him on the spot when he sees him later.

Fu Xiyao had been looking forward to tasting the holy water, but now it seems that her chances are completely over.

She glared angrily at the executor in front of the water tank, never expecting there to be such a wicked person in the shelter.

Looking at the arrogant executive standing in front, Li Yu frowned.

"That won't do."

It seems that this executive officer is in charge of the circulation of various supplies at the main gate.

As long as this executive officer is here, Li Yu will be subject to his control in every way.

This is only the issue of coal and water.

If the executive officer continues to obstruct the process and identifies him as the murderer, it's likely that Li Yuxin's long-cherished desire for the portable house will be completely dashed.

If this person is not eliminated, he will not be able to get any closer to the shelter.

With this in mind, Li Yu steeled her resolve and finally made up her mind.

Even at the risk of being discovered by the shelter, he was determined to eliminate this executive officer and remove any future threats.

With a more powerful crossbow and his superhuman ability granting him exceptional range, Li Yu was now fully confident in defeating him.

Moreover, Li Yu did not believe that the shelter could easily find him.

Even if they do manage to find him, at worst he'll just continue migrating after being discovered.

In any case, Li Yu never intended to stay in the shelter forever.

Thinking of this, Li Yu began to carefully observe her surroundings, and then looked at the many refugees queuing in front of the water jugs.

There are also people standing in line in the safe zone behind them; it will take them at least a while longer before they can all collect their holy water.

This also means that the executive officer must remain outside the high walls until all the refugees and people in the safe zone have received their water.

This is truly a fantastic opportunity.

Otherwise, once the executioner returns to the high walls, he will no longer have the opportunity to strike.

"Let's go." Li Yu subtly tugged at Fu Xiyao.

The two of them, holding Xiao Hei's hand, quickly and quietly left the crowd without attracting anyone's attention.

After walking a distance, Li Yu led Fu Xiyao onto Xiao Hei's bicycle.

Just then, an idea suddenly popped into Li Yu's mind, and he turned around and asked:

"Which direction is Zhang Biao's team in?"

Fu Xiyao immediately closed her eyes and carefully sensed that a large number of people from the Black Mountain Safe Zone were currently staying in the western direction.

“Over there!” Fu Xiyao pointed to the place where Zhang Biao’s team was resting.

Li Yu patted Xiao Hei, and Xiao Hei quickly ran in the direction Fu Xiyao was pointing.

Soon, they spotted the Black Mountain Security Zone team resting ahead of them.

Upon getting closer, Li Yu observed carefully.

Sure enough, this was Zhang Biao's team.

Li Yu stealthily circled around to the very back of Zhang Biao's group, then found a higher spot and climbed down.

Taking a deep breath, Li Yu steadily set up the crossbow and roughly aimed it in the direction of the shelter.

Then he took out a black arrow from his person.

"Switch to secondary weapon."

Switching successful

[Carbon Fiber Arrow LV5: Effective attack range +50 meters, aiming time: -1 second]

Speaking of which, this arrow was from the Montenegro safety zone.

Because the material was rare and scarce, Li Yu had never been willing to use it, but he never expected to have to use it this time.

Seeing that he was just short of gaining enough experience points, Li Yu activated his Qi Cyclone with all his might and quickly accumulated enough.

[Carbon Fiber Arrow LV6: Effective attack range +60 meters, aiming time: -1 second]

Although the improvement isn't huge, every little bit helps...

Li Yu placed the black arrow into the crossbow's quiver.

After stringing the bowstring high, Li Yu gently held the crossbow and asked in a low voice:

"Can you help me calibrate it? Are you ready?"

“I’m ready,” Fu Xiyao said softly.

Her voice carried a hint of nervousness, after all, this was the first time she had truly helped Li Yu aim.

Fu Xiyao also lay down beside Li Yu, intently sensing the subtle changes in the heavy rain, following the aiming direction of the crossbow.

Li Yu actually had no need for the scope on the crossbow.

Because in his eyes, there was already the aiming circle that had shrunk to its smallest size.

However, because the distance was too far, Li Yu could not see anything beyond a kilometer.

Therefore, Li Yu couldn't be sure who he was targeting, and could only wait for Fu Xiyao's confirmation.

Fu Xiyao stayed close to Li Yu, carefully sensing the executive officer's every move in the direction he was aiming.
