338: Familiar smell

Because of the noise from these arguments, the crowd couldn't hear it.

Therefore, everyone just continued to busy themselves.

Now, on the battlefield, the corpses of Hafke Soldiers were everywhere.

And the equipment on their bodies were all extremely important war supplies.

Step—step—

Just as everyone was busy.

An abrupt sound of footsteps caught everyone's attention.

Every step of those footsteps sounded as if it were landing on metal.

But on the current battlefield, there was no such environment.

Liu Yan was also attracted by these abrupt footsteps.

For a moment, everyone looked toward the source of the sound at the same time.

"Is this person flying??"

An incredible scene unfolded before everyone.

A figure was seen walking down from high in the sky, neither hurried nor slow.

And the abrupt footsteps from just now were coming from under his feet.

But in everyone's eyes, there was nothing under the figure's feet.

The figure seemed to be walking on thin air.

The moment they saw this figure, Liu Yan, Fuji, and Cai Ning were all stunned on the spot.

Many Xia Country Operatives also had faces full of confusion at this moment.

What they were puzzled about wasn't how the other party managed to walk on air.

But rather, many of them were very familiar with this figure.

"Old man?! Why are you here??"

"Old geezer?"

"Old man?"

Fuji, Cai Ning, and Liu Yan exclaimed simultaneously.

The owner of the footsteps just now was the old man who had collected equipment in the Third District.

Because of his habit of offering low buyback prices but paying in cash instantly.

Most people here had an extremely deep impression of him.

And during the period just before the arrival.

It was also he who had almost monopolized all the equipment.

Liu Yan understood this even better.

After all, it was he who had collaborated with the old man at the time.

Besides that, some Xia Country Operatives who had never entered the Third District.

Were also not unfamiliar with this face.

Because many people here had also visited the Hafke restaurant.

What surprised everyone was, why would this money-grubbing old man appear on the battlefield now?

And, coming down from the sky step by step in such a bizarre way.

Just as everyone was confused, the old man had already reached the ground.

He first looked around the surroundings.

Soon, his gaze locked onto Liu Yan and Fuji.

He smiled and raised his hand to greet Liu Yan.

"We meet again so soon."

At this moment, Liu Yan noticed that on his left eye, the position of Jacob Havoc that he had originally tracked.

The other party's position, and the position of the old man in front of him.

Completely overlapped...

Judging by Liu Yan's expression, Jacob seemed to know what the other party had discovered.

Immediately after, he revealed a meaningful smile and nodded at Liu Yan.

"Working with you was very pleasant."

"I just don't know if we will have the chance to collaborate again in the future?"

If the other party hadn't played his cards openly like this.

Liu Yan would rather believe that there was a problem with his tracking of Jacob.

If one were to talk about the person who helped him the most in this world.

The old man in front of him could definitely rank in the top three.

No, it should be said, for the help to the entire Xia Country.

If the other party hadn't helped him with the monopoly.

Then the situation where the equipment of the Xia Country Operatives far crushed other countries would not have happened.

After all, after monopolizing the level five and above helmets and armor at the time, Liu Yan took out the majority and gave them to Long Wu.

And these pieces of equipment were currently being worn by the Xia Country Operatives.

"Old man... you're here to ask me for the meal money... right?"

Fuji swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Through that special entrance method just now, the expression when he looked at Liu Yan, plus that meaningful sentence.

Fuji also roughly guessed the other party's identity.

However, he was equally unwilling to believe it.

It wasn't because of any feelings for the old man.

But because, if he really was Jacob.

It meant that in the previous battles, Hafke had never shown his trump card.

And, Jacob had absolute confidence.

Otherwise, in the Third District at that time, he would have had enough time and opportunity to do all sorts of things.

He could also have tampered with the equipment.

Given Hafke's technology, that shouldn't have been difficult.

On the contrary, not only did he not do that.

He even helped everyone quite a bit.

Hearing Fuji's question, the old man smiled and shook his head.

"Of course not."

"The meal money you owe, consider it my treat."

"After all, it's possible for us to work together in the future."

Upon receiving this answer, Fuji's expression changed instantly.

Crack——!!

He almost instantly crushed the ruby in his pocket.

His whole person instantly disappeared from the spot and appeared inside the cockpit of the storm red mech.

Hum——!!!

Immediately after, a humming sound came from various parts of the storm red.

Seeing Fuji's such reactive response, Jacob pursed his lips with a headache.

This feeling is just like you haven't even pressed a basic attack.

And the other party immediately used their ultimate.

On the other hand, Liu Yan's reaction was not as intense as Fuji's.

"I hope you know that my appearance here is your last chance."

"A chance to stay away from war, restore peace, and join Hafke."

"I have seen the performance of everyone present just now."

"From your eyes now, I can roughly tell that you all hate war immensely, right?"

"And the needle of Hafke is precisely to let all worlds completely end war!"

"Besides here, there are countless worlds that are facing war at every moment."

"Even if there is occasional peace, what is hidden underneath is the undercurrent of various forces."

"Hafke can provide you with any resources you want, and you don't have to worry about dying in future battles."

"Hafke can use the most cutting-edge cloning technology to restore a body with 99% similarity."

"Then use consciousness uploading technology to complete resurrection, with unlimited times."

"We can also provide you with advanced weapons."

"In addition, the people you care about in this world can continue to live happily here."

"Afterwards, Hafke will also restore the buildings of this world, and even raise the technology to a level you cannot imagine."

After Jacob finished speaking, he waited for everyone's response.

He did not expect everyone to agree.

But in his view, with such conditions, after experiencing the cruelty of war and witnessing countless deaths.

Most people would inevitably yearn for such a warm safe haven.

Almost the moment Jacob finished speaking, Cai Ning asked with a frown:

"Old geezer, why didn't I notice it before."

"Your technology is so advanced, when your mother gave birth to you, could she have injected the fetal protection needle into your head?"

Even now, Cai Ning still couldn't fully accept this fact.

When he was in the Third District, the old man was one of his few friends.

Before Jacob could make a move, all the Xia Country Operatives made their answer.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang——!!!

"Screw you!"

Boom——!!!

Countless bullets and artillery fire poured toward Jacob at the same time.

Even Su Mulan, who was on the side, was eager to get involved.

Slap——

Just as Su Mulan was preparing to rush up and fire a couple of shots at Jacob, Sayyid pressed her shoulder with a serious expression.

"Mulan, you should stay away from here."

"What?" Su Mulan, who was stopped, turned her head with a confused look.

At this moment, Sayyid's tone was somewhat unnatural.

Su Mulan could even hear Sayyid's heartbeat becoming increasingly intense.

That emotion was a combination of anger and nervousness.

"I know where Liu Yan lost last time..."

"I smelled a lot of familiar scents."
