# Chapter 1647: Vampires Should Turn to Ash!
Manchester city center.
This was the zone with the most intense fighting outside the airport.
Currently, on Sir Matt Busby Way, between the River Irwell and the Arena.
Over a dozen Vampire Soldiers and over a dozen Star Realm Soldiers were using buildings and vehicles for cover, fiercely exchanging fire with their assault rifles.
One side, relying on their supernatural skill, excellent night vision ability, and powerful physique that allowed them to disregard hits to non-vital points, managed to suppress the other side while moving at high speed.
"Fuck! What the hell is going on? These damn monsters are practically MAX-level moving targets!"
Private First Class Safang, who originated from the Demon Slayer World's Mexico, cursed from behind an Infantry Fighting Vehicle.
He often boasted that his marksmanship was the best in the entire Company, but now, even with the assisted aiming from his tactical goggles, he found it difficult to hit the enemy.
"Huff—huff—, I'm doing alright, I've hit three already, but none were vital points. I think that's the most troublesome part!"
"Their self-healing speed isn't as fast as the 'Demons' in the 'Reincarnation Paradise', but it's still quite fast."
"My thigh was shot through, and they were able to move normally again in just about ten seconds!"
Next to him, Private First Class Malwan, who originated from the Empire Arms World's Qin Empire, had a helpless look on his face.
Safang looked back at him speechlessly.
If he was just boasting, then Malwan truly had the best results.
Just then, Malwan fired another three-round burst outwards.
He successfully shot through the chest of an attacking Vampire Soldier, knocking it to the ground.
But he didn't dare to linger for a second.
He quickly pulled back, listening to the sound of the Infantry Fighting Vehicle constantly under attack.
"If I get a chance to return alive, I must get a Nichirin Blade as soon as possible."
Safang understood his meaning.
Their beautiful Regimental Commander, Major Olivia, had just shared intelligence with them via the bone conduction function of their tactical goggles, stating that wounds caused by Nichirin Blades could accelerate the rotting of vampire flesh and blood.
The problem was that aside from a minority of Shi-level and Lieutenant-level military officers, others simply didn't have Nichirin Blades.
The standard issue weapon they were given was ordinary long sabers.
Of course, some people had enough military merit to exchange for a Nichirin Blade.
But they felt it wasn't a necessity, as there were many available weapons to choose from.
Or perhaps they planned to save up to exchange for a high-grade resource that could change their fate.
However, right now, the Nichirin Blade seemed very precious.
Combined with the Breathing Style sword skill they practiced, perhaps they could contend with those red-eyed monsters in a critical moment!
"Don't think about that much right now. Once the magazines are empty, we'll have to draw our blades and go in."
"Vampire skin isn't as hard as a 'Demon's'. As long as we can cut off their heads, we can kill them!"
Safang said in a deep voice to Malwan while throwing grenades outwards.
The latter didn't reply. That logic was sound.
The problem was that they themselves were ordinary people.
Their Demon Slayer Breathing Style realm had basically only reached the level of 'Total Concentration'.
Meaning they could only burst forth with strength to resist the monsters for a short period after each deep breath.
And this consumed a lot of stamina; they would feel fatigue after using it a few times.
And those Vampire Soldiers?
They had personally witnessed scenes where, after closing in, they could cut people in half at the waist just by using their palms while wearing white gloves!
This was equivalent to the realm of 'Total Concentration: Constant'.
At the same time, they possessed the ability to rapid self-healing of wounds, and they were all well-trained elite soldiers.
So, once melee combat began.
It was hard to say how many lives it would take to exchange for one Vampire.
"All units pay attention, estimated two minutes from now, the 'Milky Way' transport plane flying from the direction of Liverpool will deploy a drone swarm over Manchester."
"Each drone will carry ten 'anti-vampire silver bullet magazines' and deliver them to the location of each squad. Please receive them yourselves based on the standard of two per person."
Suddenly, the First Regiment, both officers and enlisted, heard Yuri's announcement.
This made them all show expressions of delight, and their morale greatly increased.
Clearly, King Bradley very clearly understood what they needed most at present and how to deliver it to the battlefield immediately.
Of course, fortunately, the distance between Liverpool and Manchester was only a little over twenty kilometers.
At this moment, besides the First Regiment here, the Second Regiment on the south side, which was also under attack by vampire troops, received the same notification.
As for why these 'silver magazines' weren't distributed to the troops in advance.
It was mainly because producing a large quantity of silver bullets itself took time.
After all, this type of bullet had never been prepared before.
Moreover, transporting them from the Giant World to this State Religion World, and then from Ireland Island to Liverpool, also took a period of time.
Originally, this first batch of silver magazines was planned to be transported via armored vehicle tomorrow.
Unexpectedly, they encountered this kind of matter this evening.
Fortunately, the efficiency of the transport plane + drone swarm was high enough.
Soon.
As a huge 'Milky Way' transport plane arrived over the city under the cover of night.
Hundreds of crude drones, temporarily rushed to produce by the Fourth Heavy Combined Brigade's base factory.
Carrying ten silver magazines stored in their internal space.
Flashing blue light spots, swarmed out from the open tail hatch.
This scene was like dense blue fireflies constantly spreading in the dark night sky, flying towards all directions of the city.
The scene was truly magnificent.
"They're here!"
Safang's face was full of surprise when he saw the drone flying towards them.
Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately took out his two magazines from the automatically opening internal space and put them into his pocket.
Then he took out another two magazines and handed them to Malwan, who was firing next to him.
Just then, Malwan had finished firing his bullets, and his magazine automatically ejected and fell to the ground. Malwan took the opportunity to insert the silver magazine he had received.
[Click!]
[Tat-tat-tat!]
Another three-round burst precisely hit a Vampire Soldier jumping on the wall, attempting to pounce from the air.
[Splurt----]
Its waist was shot through by bullets, and a large amount of blood splattered out.
Originally, it didn't care about this.
But this Vampire Soldier discovered in horror that the wound was not only experiencing extreme pain but also showed no signs of healing at all.
"Ahhhhh, these are silver bullets!"
"They have silver bullets!"
A piercing scream echoed throughout the entire area, and it immediately fell heavily onto the road, head broken and bleeding, moaning in suffering.
But it was immediately completely killed by over a dozen incoming silver bullets.
This also represented that more and more Star Realm Soldiers had switched to new magazines.
[Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!]
Don't know if it's an illusion, but the gunfire seemed even more intense than before.
But one thing is very clear.
Both sides have switched offense and defense; the Star Realm Soldiers began to come out of cover, freely suppressing the Vampire Soldiers retreating towards the River Irwell.
Because now, as long as the latter is hit by a bullet.
No matter which position, it is enough to make them lose combat ability.
Even if it's just an arm, it will produce extreme pain.
Because silver is a natural enemy-like potent poison for these low-level Vampires!
Of course.
Even high-rank Vampires.
Unless they have an ability like Dead Zone, being hit in a vital point will still kill them.
Oh right, including the werewolves of this world.
At the same time.
Inside Manchester city, the Star Realm Soldiers, under Olivia's leadership, began a full-scale counterattack.
There were more and more vampire corpses on the streets.
The blood flowing out spread on the ground like demonic tendrils.
Indeed, Vampires should turn to ash when they die, it saves people a lot of trouble.
