All eyes are on me! I have an announcement to make: I am the commander-in-chief!

“Lin Yuan!”

Barton roared, and the aura around him exploded!

“What do you mean by this?! Are you looking down on me?!”

Lin Yuan finally turned his head and glanced at him, his expression like he was looking at an unreasonable, troublesome brat.

“You are loud.”

He spoke three words indifferently.

“You!!”

Barton was trembling with rage. He suddenly raised his mechanical arm and aimed it at Lin Yuan again!

“Fine! Since you won't show your strength willingly, I'll force you to make a move!”

“Take this attack!”

He was completely enraged. This time, he held nothing back!

Energy several times more terrifying than before rapidly gathered in his palm!

However, just as he was about to fire.

Lin Yuan's figure vanished from the spot without warning.

No, not vanished!

But fast!

Extremely fast!

So fast that none of the experts present, including Barton, who was in the Late Stage of Gathering Essence Realm, could track his movement trajectory!

When everyone finally saw clearly again.

Lin Yuan had already appeared in front of Barton.

The distance between the two was less than half a meter.

Barton's mechanical arm, which was gathering terrifying energy, remained raised, but his body was frozen in place as if paralyzed, unable to move a muscle!

His forehead was covered in large beads of cold sweat.

His entire body was shaking violently!

Because, a finger.

A finger, seemingly fair, slender, and unremarkable, was gently touching the center of his brow.

Lin Yuan maintained his lazy demeanor, his other hand still tucked into his pocket.

He looked at the White Eagle Country expert before him, whose face was pale as if he had seen a ghost, and impatiently curled his lip.

“Can you be quiet now?”

“I really just wanted a bottle of cola.”

As his voice fell.

The finger resting on Barton's brow gently flicked outward.

“Bang!”

A soft sound.

The next second!

Under the horrified gaze of everyone present!

The Deputy Director of the White Eagle Country, the terrifying Late Stage Juyuan Realm expert, “Falcon” Barton, his tall and robust body was hit head-on as if by a massive siege cannon!

He turned into an afterimage and flew backward at an unimaginable speed!

He directly smashed through the human wall of the White Eagle Country team behind him, then consecutively collapsed several rows of metal equipment crates, before finally crashing heavily onto the wing of a “Raptor” fighter jet a hundred meters away!

“Rumble—!!!”

The sturdy alloy wing was forcibly bent downwards, letting out a piercing shriek!

Meanwhile, Barton slid off the wing like a pile of mud, fell to the ground, spat out mouthfuls of blood, and instantly passed out.

One finger!

Merely a flick of the finger!

A Late Stage Juyuan Realm expert, defeated!

The entire world fell completely silent at this moment.

Dead silence.

A silence like that of a tomb.

The central flight deck of Shield Island seemed to have been muted in that instant.

Thousands of top experts and warriors from around the globe were all petrified, as if a mass petrification spell had been cast.

They maintained various expressions of shock, motionless, as if even their breathing had stopped.

The air solidified.

Time seemed to have stopped as well.

Everyone's gaze was fixed intently on two points.

One was the young figure who still had one hand in his pocket, the other hand, having just finished flicking his finger, was being impatiently withdrawn.

The other was the unconscious mass of flesh, like a puddle of mud, lying beneath the shattered wing of the “Raptor” fighter jet a hundred meters away.

If not for the iconic black combat uniform and the silver mechanical arm still sparking with electricity, no one would have recognized that pile of mud as “Falcon” Barton of the White Eagle Country, who had been so arrogant and high-spirited moments ago!

Late Stage Juyuan Realm!

The Deputy Director of the White Eagle Country's “Imperial Shield”!

A top-tier expert with a formidable reputation worldwide!

Just like that... was he flicked away... by a finger?

And damn it, he was flicked unconscious?!

What... what the hell just happened?!

“Gulp.”

Someone swallowed hard.

This slight sound was like a drop of water falling into a calm pan of hot oil.

Instantly!

The entire flight deck erupted!

“Hiss—!!!”

The continuous sounds of sharp intakes of breath merged into a terrifying symphony!

“Wha... what the heck?! What did I just see?!”

“Barton... Deputy Director Barton... he...”

“One finger! Just one damn finger!!”

“F-fake, right?! This must be an illusion! Deputy Director Barton is a Late Stage Juyuan Realm expert! How could he...”

“Illusion my foot! The wing of that Raptor fighter jet is practically broken! Are you telling me this is an illusion?!”

Everyone went crazy!

Their worldview was utterly, ruthlessly ground into dust at this moment!

If they had harbored a trace of doubt about the intelligence previously sent by Dragon Summer Country, which claimed Lin Yuan annihilated the Blood Fiend Emissary—thinking it might be propaganda to exaggerate their achievements.

Then now, having witnessed this scene with their own eyes.

All doubts vanished!

Only endless Fear and shock, stemming from the deepest part of their Souls, remained!

A Late Stage Juyuan Realm expert was like an ant before him, easily flicked away.

Then why would it be strange that the legendary Blood Fiend Emissary, who was at the Peak of the Juyuan Realm, was annihilated by him?!

The intelligence... the Dragon Summer Country's intelligence was not exaggerated at all!

In fact, it was damn conservative!

How could this be merely an expert?

This was clearly a God... walking among mortals!

After more than ten seconds of stunned silence, the White Eagle Country team finally reacted.

“Quick! Go check on the Deputy Director!”

“Medic! Where is the medic?!”

Several team members scrambled over, hastily lifting the mud-like Barton, and the scene descended into chaos.

Meanwhile, Isabella, the Saintess of the Oulu Alliance, whose beautiful face had always maintained its elegance, was now utterly pale. The hand holding her staff trembled uncontrollably.

As a top-tier Mage, she could sense that the moment Lin Yuan flicked his finger, there were no earth-shattering energy fluctuations.

There was only pure, back-to-basics... power!

It was the terrifying effect produced by compressing the application of power to the absolute extreme, enough to pierce through anything!

This meant that the opponent's control over power had reached a Realm she could neither fully comprehend nor even imagine!

Ivan of the North Bear Country, the smile on his wild face had long since frozen.

He lowered his head to look at the massive alloy Warhammer in his hand, then looked at the lazy figure in the distance, and swallowed.

He suddenly felt that the thing in his hand was no different from a mere fireplace poker.

As for the Dragon Summer Country team.

Yan Wu Xiaolie, Ice Sword Cold Moon, and the other Prodigies were completely dumbfounded.

They knew Lin Yuan was strong, but they never dreamed he could be this strong!
