177: Shen Dafo
Everyone’s breathing hitched at this moment.
The survivors stared wide-eyed, looking at Liu Yan in disbelief.
“Didn’t The Authorities send you to save us?”
“They should meet our demands.”
“But now, he actually shot and killed a survivor?”
“How could you…”
Beep beep beep ————!!
“Next.”
Liu Yan’s voice was calm, but to everyone’s ears, it was like thunder.
This time, no one dared to speak again.
They couldn’t even run, because their retreat was already surrounded by Soldiers.
From the moment Liu Yan fired, in the eyes of these Soldiers, all these people were enemies.
Besides the survivors, Zhao Chuang, Zhang Ning, Shen Cangsheng, and Fuji also looked at the two corpses in shock.
Only Cai Ning seemed accustomed to it, merely lighting a cigarette and shaking his head helplessly.
This was only because Liu Yan’s perception had been altered by the heart of africa.
If it were the old Liu Yan, all these people would be dead.
In other words, Liu Yan wouldn’t save them at all; he would use the simplest method to completely clear out the city.
He would kill anyone who might affect his victory; his only goal was to win.
Chen Yu’s expression was also different from the others.
His gaze towards Liu Yan was filled with the excitement of finding a kindred spirit.
In such a special period, what’s the point of keeping people who don't understand right from wrong? To cause trouble?
“Chen Yu, what were you wasting your breath on them for just now?”
Hearing Liu Yan’s words, Chen Yu’s mouth twitched uncontrollably.
He thought to himself, 'If you weren't here, would I be putting up with this nonsense? I would have blown her head off long ago!'
'Who knew you were just like me!'
Liu Yan slowly stood up, a hint of fatigue still visible in his eyes.
“Find any shop and have them wait inside.”
“I’ll tell Long Wu the address later so he can pick these people up.”
After speaking, Liu Yan looked at the group of survivors.
“Those who wish to leave can do so at any time from the shop later.”
“If anyone wants to go to the safe zone now, they can raise their hand.”
With that, Liu Yan changed his magazine.
All the survivors stood obediently in place, not daring to breathe loudly.
They were afraid that this lunatic in front of them would have another episode.
“Very good, if no one is in a hurry to go to the safe zone, then go to the shop and wait.”
Upon hearing this, the Soldiers nodded, grabbing a survivor with each hand.
They found a random shop and settled the survivors inside.
The shop door remained wide open, but no one dared to step outside.
No one dared to voice any opinions either; they all waited obediently inside.
If it were with the attitude of Shen Cangsheng, Chen Yu, or Zhang Ning earlier, they might still dare to make some unreasonable demands.
But facing Liu Yan, they didn't dare, as opening their mouths meant risking a bullet.
After settling the survivors, Liu Yan contacted Long Wu via the military radio and informed him of the address.
After Liu Yan put away the military radio, Shen Cangsheng’s voice sounded from the side.
“Doing that just now… wasn’t very good.”
“After all, they are also victims, and didn’t you just say their families were also harmed…”
Cai Ning’s eyes nearly popped out, and he quickly covered Shen Cangsheng’s mouth.
Cai Ning had a good impression of this young fellow, Xiao Shen.
But at this moment, saying such a thing, was he sure Liu Yan wouldn't just shoot him twice on a whim?
If it were the old Liu Yan, and Shen Cangsheng raised such a question, Liu Yan would consider this person a threat, a seed already planted in his heart, and he would have to kill him.
Seeing that Liu Yan made no move, Cai Ning secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Liu Yan’s personality wasn't as bad as before.
Liu Yan helplessly patted his forehead, then put away his giant wave assault rifle.
He pulled out a mandel brick with colorful ripples from his right hand, turned, and handed it to Shen Cangsheng.
“This contains an enhanced power propulsion device.”
Shen Cangsheng looked puzzled as he took the mandel brick.
“What does this have to do with what I just asked?”
Then, Liu Yan put his arm around Shen Cangsheng’s shoulder and pointed in a direction with his other hand.
“Of course it does.”
“Look, this is the southwest direction; you fly straight in this direction.”
Hearing this, everyone looked confused.
“At the speed of the enhanced power propulsion device, you should reach Sanchuan Province by morning.”
“There’s a scenic area there called Leshan, and inside it, there’s a giant Buddha.”
“You tell him to get up, and then you sit there.”
After Liu Yan finished speaking, Chen Yu immediately gave a thumbs-up from the side.
“Exactly, Xiao Shen, you’re more suited to sit there.”
Shen Cangsheng still didn’t understand what he meant.
“How do you know my home is in Sanchuan Leshan?”
Fuji, Cai Ning, and Zhang Ning burst out laughing.
Although Liu Yan killing those two people just now shocked them, they didn’t feel it was inappropriate.
Chen Yu couldn’t help but want to applaud.
From the moment Liu Yan pulled the trigger, his image in Chen Yu’s mind completely changed.
It’s rare to find a kindred spirit in life.
Given the situation just now, the person who should have been most enraged wasn't Chen Yu, nor Cai Ning, but Shen Cangsheng, as his parents were directly attacked.
But Liu Yan could also understand Shen Cangsheng.
After all, among these people, in terms of psychological age, Shen Cangsheng and Zhao Chuang were the youngest.
Zhao Chuang’s brain capacity wasn’t enough to support him thinking so much.
Seeing Shen Cangsheng still looking bewildered, Chen Yu explained helplessly:
“Xiao Shen, if you had taken these survivors to the safe zone yourself just now, it’s not certain if you would have survived the journey.”
“They wouldn’t believe you could protect them; they only know one thing: the equipment on you can protect them.”
“These ordinary people have long been scared out of their wits.”
“One should not harbor intentions to harm others, but one must guard against others harming them.”
After Chen Yu finished speaking, Shen Cangsheng frowned slightly.
“Even if you say that, Brother Chen, your vigilance is too strong…”
Chen Yu threw his hands up and rolled his eyes.
“I just graduated, my quantum storage hadn’t even warmed up, and it was already ambushed by others.”
“From then on, I understood that to protect myself, I must consider all possible bad outcomes.”
“This is how the world is.”
“If you are kind to them, what awaits you might be their retaliation.”
Liu Yan also shrugged.
“That’s right, I learned it from Chen Yu.”
Hearing Liu Yan’s words, Chen Yu’s mouth twitched wildly again.
“When I first met you, those operatives cursed you, but I didn’t.”
“I just asked your name, and you shot!”
“What, did you learn that from me too?”
After roughly understanding Liu Yan’s personality, Chen Yu’s favorable impression of Liu Yan also increased slightly.
Seeing that Shen Cangsheng still didn’t quite believe it and was frowning in thought, Liu Yan had no choice but to take off his helmet and show Shen Cangsheng the bullet mark on the back of it.
Shen Cangsheng was not good at understanding human nature, but he could tell at a glance from the bullet mark that this happened when Liu Yan was unprepared and the shooter’s aim was extremely poor.
Combining this with what Chen Yu had just said, how this bullet mark came to be was already self-evident.
“This…”
Shen Cangsheng looked at Liu Yan in disbelief.
Then, he looked at the survivors’ direction in dismay.
“Can people… really be that bad?”
Liu Yan did not answer.
Chen Yu also did not answer.
No one could answer that question.
Everyone also stopped discussing this topic.
Liu Yan looked around at everyone.
Deep in their eyes, weariness could be seen.
Only Chen Yu’s mental state was the best.
“Aren’t you tired?” Liu Yan asked, somewhat puzzled.
Chen Yu shook his head.
“I injected 5 physical strength enhancers.”
Hearing this, Liu Yan nodded thoughtfully.
He still had many physical strength enhancers, but he hadn’t injected any, originally intending to save them for the Soldiers.
At the time, in the combat zone, a game lasted at most half an hour, and he recovered afterwards, so physical strength enhancers weren't very useful.
But looking at it now, they were still very important.
“Then I’ll inject a few more too.”
Saying that, Liu Yan took out a powerful vacuum cleaner, and then pulled out a large handful of physical strength enhancers from it.
This amount was certainly no less than the m1 muscle injector Zhao Chuang pulled out at the time.
“Wait a minute! How many have you injected?” Chen Yu stopped Liu Yan.
“3.” Liu Yan replied without looking back.
“Then at most, inject one more, and don’t inject any more after that; exceeding 4 will have side effects.” Chen Yu’s expression was very serious.
Liu Yan was stunned; he really didn’t know about the side effects of exceeding 4.
Then, Liu Yan looked at Zhao Chuang.
“Zhao Chuang, how many m1 muscle injectors have you injected?”
Zhao Chuang counted on his fingers, then scratched his head.
“Brother Yan, I forgot.”
Liu Yan sighed, but he didn’t blame Zhao Chuang.
He only blamed himself for asking what he shouldn’t have asked again.
“He injected a full 71 during his fight with Reis alone.” Fuji explained from the side.
“Adding the previous 7, it’s now 78.”
During that battle, Chen Yu went to fight the guards in the middle and didn’t see clearly.
But Fuji counted them one by one from the side.
“What?”
“78?!”
