176: Who else doesn't want to be here?

After landing, Liu Yan moved the corpses on the ground.

He cleared a space and sat on the curb next to Cai Ning.

"Want one?" Cai Ning offered Liu Yan a cigarette.

"No, thanks." Liu Yan waved his hand.

At this time, the Soldiers and Chen Yu and others were still fighting Asara and Hafke's Soldiers.

Liu Yan didn't plan to participate, mainly because he actually felt tired.

Previously, with the boost of the physical strength enhancer, Liu Yan hardly ever felt tired.

But that was in the action area; after each clear-and-retreat, his condition would recover.

It was different after the Descent; there was no such thing as recovering physical strength.

And Liu Yan hadn't been idle all day today; he was busy in the action area during the day, and then the Descent suddenly happened in the afternoon.

It was already past midnight now.

Almost all of Bin City had been cleared by Liu Yan alone, with the help of the Soldiers.

During this time, the Soldiers had rested in shifts, but Liu Yan had not rested at all.

Both mentally and physically, Liu Yan felt exhausted.

About 30 minutes later, the gunshots that had been echoing everywhere gradually grew weaker.

Until finally, the entire Location fell silent.

Technology could not be used after the Descent, which meant that lights also could not be turned on.

At this moment, to see clearly, one could only rely on the moonlight.

Fortunately, for Liu Yan, this had no impact whatsoever.

Besides him, only one other person in this night had unimpaired vision.

"How about it, if I had wanted to just now, I could have sniped you down with one shot."

"During the Sniper Elite Competition, if I had waited for you to roll and stand up before shooting, wouldn't you have been blown to bits?"

Shen Cangsheng walked over to Liu Yan, carrying his sniper rifle.

Liu Yan nodded noncommittally.

At that distance just now, even with a sniper rifle, he might not have hit Shen Cangsheng.

A few hundred meters was not a problem for Liu Yan, but above a thousand meters, it was a bit difficult.

But he also didn't believe that Shen Cangsheng could hit him at that distance.

Seeing and hitting were two different things.

"Stop bragging, you've been talking all night, can you take a break?"

Fuji grumbled unhappily from the side, then plopped down on the curb.

After fighting all night, Shen Cangsheng's voice in the helmet hadn't stopped.

For example, 'You're going against me? One miss and you're dead! And then, kid? No, buddy, should you have dodged that bullet? If I sniped you at that moment, wouldn't you have been blown to bits? Right, kid?'

The pressure!

At this moment, Chen Yu and Zhao Chuang also walked over one after another.

They had already removed their helmets.

Compared to accidentally getting shot in the head by a Soldier, they were even less willing to listen to Shen Cangsheng babbling endlessly.

Zhao Chuang was in close-quarters combat, while Chen Yu and Fuji were in mid-range combat.

This distance was already very dangerous, and the Soldiers weren't strong, but that was just for them.

For ordinary operatives, these were life-threatening battles.

They already needed to be fully focused, but there was someone constantly talking in their ears.

Shen Cangsheng, on the other hand, was different; he just lay there, set up his sniper rifle, and was not in any danger at all.

This made him bored stiff; fighting these Soldiers was like shooting at live targets for him.

He even switched to a rifle to clear out some of the closer Soldiers directly.

Only occasionally, when some Soldiers might threaten Zhao Chuang or Chen Yu, would he use his sniper rifle for a direct headshot.

"Location has been completely cleared," Chen Yu walked forward, took off his mask, and said to Liu Yan.

Liu Yan nodded, then couldn't help but point to the mask.

"Looking at your age, you should be over 30, right?"

Chen Yu nodded.

"Then why are you still so chuunibyou??" Liu Yan asked with a suspicious expression.

"This mask, besides looking cool when worn, offers almost no help in combat."

"In fact, the obstruction on both sides of the eye sockets, including the obstruction to breathing, even has some negative effects on combat."

"You endure so many negative effects just to look cool?"

Chen Yu didn't answer Liu Yan, just silently sat down to rest.

Liu Yan shook his head helplessly at the sight.

Indeed, men are boys until they die... The feeling of exhaustion still swept over Liu Yan, and he sat on the curb like that, lowering his head and closing his eyes to rest.

And his Soldiers also successively finished their battles and sat down not far behind Liu Yan.

"We need to go to the safe zone now!!!"

"I came here to travel, and then I encountered something like this; this is due to The Authorities not being prepared enough!"

"I don't care, you contact The Authorities for me now and get me home, or take me to the safe zone immediately."

"I refuse to wait here!"

A shrill-voiced woman kept shouting.

Zhang Ning, while leading everyone, helplessly and soothingly comforted the crowd.

Besides that woman, there were also some others who kept complaining.

Chen Yu's fingers tightened slightly at the sight, but after seeing Liu Yan resting with his eyes closed nearby, he made no move.

"Brother Chen, what should we do about these survivors?"

Zhang Ning walked up to Chen Yu and asked.

Chen Yu was about to speak when the shrill-voiced woman spoke again.

"What do you mean, what should we do? Of course, escort us to the safe zone and then send us home!"

"Exactly, it's so dangerous here, when did the national defense become so bad? The enemy has already entered the city!"

Shen Cangsheng explained from the side:

"No, it's the original Third District, which is the action area, that descended, appearing suddenly."

The woman looked at Shen Cangsheng with disgust, her brows furrowed tightly.

"Where did this little brat come from? Get lost, is it your turn to speak?"

"I'm telling you, don't prioritize escorting him just because he's a child!"

"I'm a woman!"

Shen Cangsheng spread his hands helplessly and patted the AWM on his back.

"Ma'am, don't you see I have a gun on me?"

"If it weren't for me..."

The woman spat fiercely at Shen Cangsheng's feet, then looked at Zhang Ning and Chen Yu with even more resentment.

"Why do you give this child equipment but not us? We also need means of self-preservation!"

As soon as these words came out, the attitudes of the other survivors also changed at this moment.

"Yeah, why don't you give it to us!"

"Is it just because he's a child? I think he just graduated, right?"

Cai Ning's eyes widened, he glanced at Liu Yan, then breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said to the woman:

"This T0, I beg you not to say any more, he might actually wake up in a bit!"

The woman glanced at Cai Ning.

"Where did this damn hobo come from? You even manage hobos, but you don't care about us?"

"I'm an executive! My contribution to society is much greater than his, a stinking hobo!"

"Damn you, who are you calling a hobo?" Hearing someone insult his father, Fuji instantly stood up.

Cai Ning pulled Fuji back.

"This T0, if you don't want to die, you'd better not do this anymore."

After speaking, Cai Ning glanced at Liu Yan, praying in his heart that Liu Yan hadn't heard.

Seeing this scene, Shen Cangsheng, who was being glared at by everyone, felt a bit helpless.

He was indeed still a student and had only graduated a few months ago.

Even when facing enemies and operatives, he could remain calm and composed.

But in the face of this situation, he completely didn't know how to handle it and could only look at Chen Yu.

At this moment, Chen Yu was trembling all over; from the constantly bulging masseter muscles on his cheeks, it was clear that he was clenching his molars so hard they might shatter.

Chen Yu looked at Liu Yan, then took a deep breath and explained in a deep voice:

"He is an operative fighting with us."

"The Authorities arranged for us to come, so of course he has a gun."

"And we've been fighting non-stop until now, we just asked you to wait here!"

"When The Authorities' logistics arrive, they will take you to the safe zone!"

"Not just here, the situation in other cities isn't much better, and we have to go to other cities later."

"Now all the Soldiers here have been killed by us, this place is damn safe!"

Chen Yu became more and more agitated as he spoke, and the nails on his clenched left hand, placed below, had already dug into his flesh.

He wished he could shoot the woman right now, but constrained by Liu Yan's presence, he didn't do so.

Their relationship had just barely eased; if he handled this matter improperly, it could be more trouble than it was worth.

But the survivors did not accept Chen Yu's explanation.

"What the hell are you guys? Are you so great? You killed all of them?"

"My son just died at the hands of those Soldiers! This is your dereliction of duty!"

"And me! My husband just died too! It's all because of The Authorities' dereliction of duty!"

Shen Cangsheng also felt a little unbearable at the sight, his expression somewhat remorseful.

From the time he started school, he had been called a prodigy.

But now that disaster had struck, as a prodigy, he should have stood in front of everyone.

But he failed to do so.

"My parents are also in danger right now, and I can't even go back home."

"So I can completely understand how you feel."

"Everyone just needs to wait here for a little while, and soon The Authorities' people will come and take you to the safe zone."

"Or, if it really comes down to it, I'll escort you to the safe zone."

After speaking, Shen Cangsheng looked at Chen Yu inquiringly.

Chen Yu ignored Shen Cangsheng, rolled his eyes, and looked speechless.

And the shrill-voiced woman from before rolled her eyes and glared fiercely at Shen Cangsheng.

"What does your parents dying or not dying have to do with me? Do you not understand what I'm saying?"

"I want to go to the safe zone now!"

"Immediately, right now!"

"The streets are full of disgusting corpses here, it stinks!"

"I don't want to stay here for another second!"

The woman's voice was shrill and piercing, waking up the half-asleep Liu Yan.

Dudududu — — — —!!!

Two shots to the chest, one to the head.

The woman fell to the ground instantly.

Liu Yan held the giant wave assault rifle in his right hand, its muzzle still smoking.

He rubbed his face with his left hand, forcing himself to be more alert.

Then, he slightly raised his head, looked at everyone, and asked indifferently:

"Is there anyone else who doesn't want to stay here?"
