120: Red light reappears

The three followed the address on the business card and arrived at the Third District’s Special Operations Personnel Office Hall.

As soon as they entered the hall, the receptionist at the door walked directly up to them.

"Hello, please show me your ID card."

Liu Yan handed over his ID card. After a quick glance, the receptionist’s eyes lit up as he looked at Liu Yan.

"You are Liu Yan!?"

The receptionist’s voice wasn't quiet and instantly drew the attention of everyone else.

"Liu Yan? Is that Liu Yan, who is hailed as the strongest operative of all time?!"

"Holy crap! I actually saw him alive!"

"Last night, a member of the exploration team told me he saw Liu Yan at Babel Tower and was instantly defeated in one encounter."

Fuji and Zhao Chuang turned their heads, one on each side, to look at Liu Yan in the middle.

"Iron Egg, your fame is now finally catching up to your strength."

"Brother Yan, you’re famous."

Liu Yan awkwardly smiled at everyone and turned to the receptionist, saying:

"I'm here to pick up a resuscitation ventilator. Long Wu said he's already made arrangements."

Upon hearing this, the light in the receptionist’s eyes grew even more intense.

Long Wu!

As expected of the strongest operative of all time, he could even get Long Wu to open a special channel.

"Alright, please follow me!"

The receptionist quickly made a gesture to invite them, walked out of the hall, and led Liu Yan to the special item collection point on the side of the hall.

At the counter, the receptionist first greeted the administrator of the collection point and explained Liu Yan's situation.

The administrator looked at Liu Yan and smiled politely:

"Please wait a moment. There's another special person here. Once I'm done with him, I'll get yours."

Liu Yan nodded slightly.

As the three were about to sit down and rest, they saw a familiar figure.

"Chen Yu again?" Liu Yan rubbed his eyes.

Why did it feel like he ran into him everywhere he went?

Clearly, Chen Yu was also an officially certified special operative.

Chen Yu, who was waiting for his item at the counter, had already heard Liu Yan's voice.

But after only a quick glance, he no longer looked in Liu Yan's direction, pretending he hadn't seen him at all.

Even with his back to Liu Yan, Chen Yu felt like he was sitting on pins and needles and quickly said to the counter:

"Could you please hurry? I really don't have time to wait here."

Seeing Chen Yu's urgency, the administrator at the counter apologized repeatedly, then quickly produced a heaven is round, earth is square and handed it to Chen Yu.

"Hello, your quota for this month has been used up. You'll have to wait until next month to collect more. I hope you understand."

Chen Yu took the heaven is round, earth is square, stuffed it into his satchel, and then turned to leave.

Bang — — — —!!

A red light instantly appeared above Chen Yu's head!

Ding — — —!

At the same time, the sound of the heaven is round, earth is square shattering in Chen Yu's backpack clearly reached everyone's ears in the hall.

Everyone present, every single one, including Liu Yan, widened their mouths in shock.

"Hiss ~ Is this what a special person is!? His awareness is terrifyingly strong."

"No wonder he said he was out of time just now; he already knew!"

"Yeah, if the heaven is round, earth is square had reached him a little later just now, he might have..."

At this moment, the staff in the hall looked at Chen Yu with nothing but admiration.

One could only say, as expected of an officially certified special operative!

Even far beyond the Third District, he possessed such foresight!

"Brother Yan... this guy has such great luck!"

Zhao Chuang was equally surprised. That red light just now was clearly a bullet aimed at Chen Yu's head.

Only a smoothbore gun could do that. Liu Yan had previously told Fuji and Zhao Chuang about Chen Yu being killed by a smoothbore gun.

After his initial shock, a face flashed through Liu Yan's mind.

John!

He had just told him Chen Yu's name, and the next day, a smoothbore gun bullet arrived!?

Chen Yu's face was now black, then green, then red.

At this moment, his molars were almost ground to dust, and the veins on the hand clutching his satchel bulged.

"Whew — — — —"

Chen Yu exhaled heavily, calming himself down.

"Liu Yan, I beg you, can you stop trying to kill me?"

He had suddenly come to collect the heaven is round, earth is square today, and Liu Yan just happened to appear at the same time.

And it was a smoothbore gun again!

Who would believe it wasn't Liu Yan's doing?

"Damn you! Does my Brother Yan need such despicable and underhanded methods to kill you?"

"Even if he fought you fair and square, could you beat him?"

Hearing Chen Yu slander Liu Yan, Zhao Chuang immediately stood up.

Seeing the other party stand up, Chen Yu subconsciously took two steps back.

Fortunately, Fuji held Zhao Chuang back, and only then did the latter snort coldly and sit back down.

At this moment, both Chen Yu and Liu Yan looked like they had eaten dirt.

Zhao Chuang, by himself, had inadvertently cursed them both.

But then again, Chen Yu should actually thank Liu Yan.

If Liu Yan hadn't been behind him, making him feel a bit uneasy and urging the administrator to quickly give him the heaven is round, earth is square, he would have truly died just now.

Finally, Chen Yu sighed, glanced warily at Liu Yan, then limped away.

Chen Yu thought to himself: I need to find a way to get more heaven is round, earth is square quickly. God knows how many smoothbore guns this guy has prepared for me!

"Why are you limping again?" Liu Yan frowned, looking at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu had been crippled by him before, but with Red Wolf's exoskeleton, it wasn't obvious in the operational area.

Could it be that resurrection by the resuscitation ventilator doesn't completely cure the after-effects?

Hearing Liu Yan's question, Chen Yu paused, gritted his teeth, and said:

"If you have time, go to the Aerospace Base, and you'll know."

With that, Chen Yu limped out of the collection point's hall... Yesterday at six in the afternoon.

Confidential Aerospace Base — President's Office.

"Brother Chen, this Aerospace Base is nothing special. We took down the president directly." Zhang Ning said, searching a body and turning to shout at Chen Yu.

Shen Cangsheng looked disdainful, loading his awm sniper rifle.

"Tch, I alone killed ten people. Of course, it's easy when you don't have to do anything."

"But then again, the Aerospace Base is better than Bakshi; I can finally utilize my sniping skills."

"Then why don't you mention that Brother Chen killed 15? And six isn't a small number for me either!" Zhang Ning retorted, unconvinced, to Shen Cangsheng.

Chen Yu tidied his backpack, then stood up and looked at the two.

"Alright, it's time to evacuate. I've inquired; evacuation here isn't like pulling the lever at Bakshi. We need to go to the Blue Room and the Centrifuge Room to pull the levers."

"I'll go to the Centrifuge Room to pull the lever; you two go to the Blue Room."

Chen Yu stated directly, then headed straight for the Centrifuge Room.

Shen Cangsheng and Zhang Ning were almost constantly bickering. If they weren't made to quickly accept each other, the cohesion of this small team would be very poor.

Seeing that Chen Yu left no room for discussion, Zhang Ning and Shen Cangsheng exchanged a glance, then each snorted coldly and turned their heads away.

"You wait here; I'll go myself."

Shen Cangsheng dropped that remark and headed directly for the Blue Room.
