380: Liu Yan, the Trisolaran

"Sir, look at this..." Wafa took out his phone and handed it to Sayyid, who was currently watching a clip of the live broadcast.

"Come look at this, everyone!" On the other side, Mai Xiaowen had also found a clip of the live broadcast and was gathering the GTI Operators together to watch.

"I really... gave you face..." Soon, Liu Yan's voice from earlier was played out loud.

As the person involved, Liu Yan couldn't help but feel his face flush red. "I think the volume could be a bit lower..." The feeling was quite strange.

At the time, with his anger rising, saying some strange things didn't feel like much. But now, having a group of people huddled together watching footage of him that had just been filmed was one thing. But doing it with the volume turned up so high was another.

"Ugh! Damn it!" Suddenly, Wang Yuhao raised his hand and swung it heavily through the air. This sudden reaction startled the Operators who were intently watching the video, causing them to look up.

Immediately after, Wang Yuhao sighed in extreme annoyance and muttered, "How did I never think of such a pretentious line before!"

The other Operators immediately rolled their eyes in silence. "Seriously, are you sick?" "Don't regret it, you're already pretentious enough." "During the previous raid, when you smashed through the window and shouted 'The Posture of a Flood Dragon', it was pretty pretentious too, not any worse than his."

Facing the teasing from the other Operators, Wang Yuhao ignored them. Instead, he silently committed that incredibly pretentious line to memory.

After the interlude, the group continued watching the clip. "Wait! Is that... a power propulsion device?!"

Upon seeing the power propulsion device worn at Liu Yan's waist in the footage, the pupils of all the Operators constricted simultaneously. They almost instinctively looked at Wang Yuhao. The latter shrugged, looking equally confused.

"It can't be mine; I'm still wearing it." Wang Yuhao pointed to the power propulsion device at his own waist. Immediately after, everyone locked their gaze on Liu Yan.

"Would you believe me if I said it came with me from the factory?" Liu Yan didn't intend to hide it, but that was assuming they would believe him. Everyone shook their heads in unison.

Mai Xiaowen couldn't help but ask, "Rather than where it came from, I'm more curious about how you managed to use it?" "There aren't many people who can use a power propulsion device."

Liu Yan scratched his head helplessly. Although they hadn't known each other for long, these Operators had made a very good impression on Liu Yan. Even when they were out on missions, if they had time, they would occasionally ask if Liu Yan was getting used to staying at headquarters. This kind of thoughtful concern made Liu Yan not want to hide the truth. But the problem was that no one believed the truth.

"It's innate..." After Liu Yan replied, the Operators exchanged glances. Since Liu Yan didn't want to elaborate, they wouldn't pry further.

Unlike the others, Wang Yuhao looked at Liu Yan in shock. Then, he silently committed this sentence to memory. Liu Yan was just too good at being pretentious!

The Operators didn't dwell on where Liu Yan got the power propulsion device and chose to continue watching the clip. In the subsequent footage, no one made a sound. In the entire Amiya Town, only the sounds of fighting from the clip remained, along with the faint, intermittent sobs from the town residents' houses.

At this moment, whether it was Sayyid and Wafa or the Operators, their eyes were practically popping out and pressed against the device. They had almost never heard of or seen Liu Yan's fighting style before.

Countless questions appeared in their minds. Whether it was withstanding an explosion without taking any damage, a gun that didn't need reloading, marksmanship that didn't require aiming yet hit headshots every time, the force of a leg sweep that shattered skulls, a large dagger that could directly pierce the bulletproof glass of a blue eagle helicopter, or the power propulsion device that could be used indefinitely to maneuver in mid-air, and even the military shell Liu Yan threw at the end.

"This... isn't very scientific, is it..." "From the moment he started firing to the end, he must have fired at least nearly two hundred rounds." "And that, kicking someone's head until it exploded? Even the instructor couldn't achieve that level of force..."

"A power propulsion device requires kinetic energy to be built up before it can be used again. Moreover, the thrust can only push a person up a short distance; it is absolutely impossible to fly directly with it!"

Every frame, every scene made them feel that this video had been edited.

"These bloggers nowadays have absolutely no bottom line when it comes to grabbing attention. Let me switch to another clip." Mai Xiaowen unhappily marked the clip as 'not interested' and simultaneously blocked the blogger. Immediately after, she searched for other clips related to what had just happened.

"So annoying, why is everyone pirating the video?" But as she scrolled through, all the clip videos were exactly the same as the previous one. By this time, except for the stubborn Mai Xiaowen, everyone else already had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

"Wait, over there... there's a camera..." Golden Luna keenly noticed the camera scattered on the ground. "It has the unedited playback; we'll know if we watch it..." As she spoke, Golden Luna couldn't help but swallow. From the identical videos she had just seen, she already vaguely believed that the unbelievable events had actually happened.

"Wait, I'll go get it." Roy quickly ran forward and picked up a camera covered in blood. Two minutes later... The group turned off the camera and swallowed in unison. This absurdity, no less shocking than the arrival of the Three-Body aliens on Earth, was actually... real.

Smack! David Ferrer dazedly raised his hand and pinched Roy's lower back. "Ah—damn it!!" "What the hell are you doing?" Roy immediately screamed in pain, rubbing his lower back repeatedly.

Seeing Roy's reaction, David Ferrer finally fully accepted the fact. "This isn't a dream..." "Why the hell don't you pinch yourself? Why pinch me!" Roy rubbed his waist and glared at David Ferrer indignantly.

After confirming that the clip had not been edited at all, both the Operators and the Asala Guard subconsciously took two steps back. At this moment, the way they looked at Liu Yan had an extra hint of fear and vigilance. It was the fear that humans instinctively feel towards the unknown.

"All Soldiers, retreat! Treat today's events as if they never happened." Sayyid waved his hand and turned to leave Amiya Town. For someone like Liu Yan, who was shrouded in mystery and extremely bizarre, to appear in Asara—under normal circumstances, Sayyid would not let him stay, no matter the cost. But as it happened, Liu Yan had helped them. Therefore, the only thing he could do was to pretend he hadn't seen anything.

After the Asala Guard left, the Operators also looked conflicted. Wang Yuhao was the first to snap back to reality, his expression exceptionally serious. "Xiaowen, don't just stand there, hurry up and scrub all the clips circulating online. Once the video spreads on a large scale, Liu Yan..." "He might be in danger."
