433: You are the rule.
As his voice trailed off, Liu Yan raised his arms like a musician.
His fingers twitched rhythmically as well.
Zing!
Under Geheros's disbelieving gaze, a variety of firearms flew out from Liu Yan's quantum storage.
These firearms all moved in unison with the rhythmic twitching of his fingers, floating around the two of them.
"You just said that your gun was modified, right?"
Liu Yan looked at the ASH-12 combat rifle in front of Geheros with an amused expression.
The latter nodded in a daze.
He hadn't heard a word of what Liu Yan said.
He was completely stunned by the scene before him.
"What a coincidence. After I discovered my guns could fly a few days ago, I found another special ability while practicing."
Liu Yan pointed a finger at one of his own firearms.
It was also an ASH-12 combat rifle.
"I can modify guns too."
After saying that, Liu Yan brought his hands together, aiming them at that gun.
Then, Liu Yan abruptly spread his hands wide!
Snap!
In an instant, the ASH-12 floating in the air was completely disassembled into parts.
"What?!" Geheros leaned his upper body forward abruptly.
Liu Yan ignored his shock and, using the same method, raised his hand toward the remaining firearms.
Then, under his manipulation, the other firearms were also disassembled one by one into various parts.
Finally, Liu Yan made a splicing motion with his hands, and the parts from several different firearms were forcibly fused together!
"This..." Geheros was lost for words as he looked at the exaggerated firearm that combined the features of several different guns.
"It's certainly exaggerated, but aside from the guns being able to fly and the process of disassembly and fusion being rather dramatic..."
"At the end of the day, isn't the final result just a gun with a high rate of fire, low recoil, and a large caliber?"
After Geheros finished speaking, Liu Yan nodded.
"True."
"But I haven't loaded it yet."
"Even if you load it with a... larger... what the hell is that?!"
Looking at the dozens of military shells floating in the air, Geheros stood up abruptly.
"I told you, I hadn't loaded it yet." Liu Yan looked at Geheros with a smile.
Then, Liu Yan aimed his index finger and thumb at the military shells and made a pinching motion.
Immediately, the shells, which were originally similar in size to the gun, instantly shrank.
After repeating the operation a few times, all the shells were loaded into a specially made magazine.
Click!
After Liu Yan loaded the magazine, he pulled the bolt.
A recoil-less, high-rate-of-fire, "large" caliber gun.
It was presented right there in front of Geheros.
The face under Geheros's mask was twitching wildly, and his mouth was hanging wide open.
After a moment of silence, his tone sounded a bit unconvinced.
"It's alright, I guess. All flash and no substance."
Looking at his open mouth beneath the mask, Liu Yan couldn't help but grin.
"Then why don't you close your mouth? Why make such an exaggerated expression?"
Upon hearing this, Geheros was stunned for a moment, then looked sharply at Liu Yan.
He was wearing a mask!
Seeing what Geheros was thinking, Liu Yan raised his hand and pointed to his own eyes.
"It's nothing."
"Just a little X-ray vision."
Geheros was speechless for a long time before he finally couldn't help but blurt out a few words.
"So, you have this many abilities?"
Liu Yan thought for a moment and shook his head.
"A lot of the things I see are different from what others see."
"For example, when you speak, I can see subtitles."
"And some other miscellaneous stuff."
"But as for the unusual things I've discovered so far, there are probably about ten or twenty of them?"
After listening to Liu Yan, Geheros slumped back into his chair.
This time, he really felt a chill down his spine.
He had originally thought they both had similar experiences.
It should have been roughly the same.
But this, damn it, was too big a difference.
"If that's how you're going to play it,"
"when someone comes to the prison to cause trouble, handle it yourself. Don't bother me with it."
Geheros said, sounding annoyed.
After Liu Yan retracted all the guns, he slumped back onto the sofa.
Compared to before, Liu Yan was in a much better mood after showing off.
Most importantly, interacting with Geheros gave Liu Yan a very comfortable feeling.
Perhaps, just as he said, they might have actually known each other before.
"To tell you the truth, a few days ago, I even thought about committing suicide."
"Since I arrived here, I thought I was just an ordinary transmigrator."
"Then I slowly discovered one unique trait after another."
"Within a few days, I accidentally discovered something."
"I'm invincible."
"And this invincibility is really in every sense of the word."
"It's like I'm cheating."
Liu Yan sat on the sofa speaking, while Geheros sat in his office chair, hands resting on the desk, listening.
Although what Liu Yan was saying was very exaggerated and abstract, one could see that his expression was very serious.
"But later I slowly discovered,"
"the only one who is invincible... is me."
"The people around me, they are living, ordinary people."
"Inadvertently, I end up causing them a lot of trouble."
"Asara, Hafke, GTI, these complicated relationships..."
"make me not know how to handle them."
"There are people I care about in GTI, and in Asara too."
"I don't have any affection for Hafke, but Jacob has helped me, although I didn't need his help."
"But I keep things separate."
"This kind of war really makes me hate it."
Geheros listened quietly as Liu Yan finished speaking.
After pondering, he also spoke up:
"Originally, I just didn't have any good feelings towards GTI."
"But since I woke up that day, I found that my goal has shifted."
"Other than wanting to kill that Raven, I don't really care about anything else."
Liu Yan glanced at Geheros and sighed helplessly.
"Then he's really unlucky."
"Did he kill your whole family in your past life or something?"
Geheros shook his head.
"I don't know."
"Let's get back to you."
"After you experienced all that, your final choice was to escape, right?"
"Otherwise, you wouldn't have appeared here."
Liu Yan nodded noncommittally.
Geheros changed the subject and continued:
"Since you don't like this kind of war,"
"you can completely call it off."
Hearing this, Liu Yan shook his head and scoffed.
"Call it off? Their messy relationships, the internal moles they have in each other's organizations, do you know how chaotic it is?"
Geheros nodded.
"I know, I'm from Hafke."
"I can't even tell right from wrong, with all the conflicting interests and injustices—how can I call it off?" Liu Yan continued to ask rhetorically.
Geheros leaned back and waved his hand.
"You don't need to distinguish."
"They each have things they care about and goals they want to achieve, which is why the current situation has formed."
"But what does that have to do with you?"
"You're so strong that you don't even seem human anymore."
"You don't need to follow their rules, nor do you need to follow the rules of this world."
"Because, you are the rules."
