92: Manipulating the rules? Real-world intervention begins.

General Lin Zhan's voice over the communicator was like a volcano suppressed to its limit, each word carrying scalding anger and anxiety.

"The entire squad... wiped out!"

"Academician Zhang... is missing!"

The moment the news arrived, the air in Su Yuan's room seemed to have been sucked dry.

Wang Yi punched the wall hard, and the sturdy special alloy surface actually bore a shallow fist imprint.

"Bastards!"

His eyes were bloodshot, his body trembling slightly with extreme rage. Those sacrificed security personnel were soldiers he had once led, brothers he had rolled in the mud with! Now, they had died silently on their own soil, and the national treasure they had sworn to protect had also fallen into enemy hands.

He couldn't swallow this anger!

"General, I'll lead a team out now!" Wang Yi's voice seemed squeezed from between his teeth. "Even if I have to turn the whole of Jiangnan City upside down, I'll find Academician Zhang!"

"Calm down, Wang Yi!" Su Yuan's voice was not loud, but it was like a bucket of ice water dousing Wang Yi's furious flames.

He stood up, extinguishing the cigarette that had burned down to the filter in his hand. The smoky smell permeating the room couldn't mask the icy killing intent emanating from him.

"Anger won't solve the problem." Su Yuan's gaze was terrifyingly calm at this moment. "Since they dare to flip the table in the real world, I'll play along to the end. I'll flip the table with them still on it."

He walked up to Wang Yi and patted his shoulder.

"Trust me. Give me ten minutes, I can find them."

Wang Yi jerked his head up, his bloodshot eyes filled with astonishment.

General Lin Zhan on the other end of the communicator also heard it, his voice carrying a trace of urgent disbelief: "Comrade Su Yuan, what did you say? You can find them in the real world?"

This wasn't a dungeon; there were no system prompts, no map markers. Finding a well-trained, premeditated enemy special forces squad in the vast sea of humanity was like searching for a needle in a haystack. Comrades from the State Security and intelligence departments would likely need a significant amount of time to investigate leads.

Ten minutes? How was that possible!

"I have some special methods." Su Yuan offered no further explanation, his tone filled with unquestionable confidence. "They think this is a shadow war. In my book, this is an open hand. Wait for my news."

After speaking, he directly hung up the call with Lin Zhan and sat back down in front of the computer.

Wang Yi stood behind him, looking at Su Yuan's back. The fury and anxiety in his heart miraculously subsided. He didn't know how Su Yuan would do it, but from this young man, he sensed a terrifying power capable of turning the tide.

Su Yuan's consciousness was completely immersed in the administrator system.

The moment the other party broke the game rules, the system's notification tone had already appeared.

【Detected that the 'Lighthouse Country' faction is illegally utilizing arena resources to interfere with real-world order.】

【Balance mechanism judging...】

【Judgment complete.】

【Administrator 'Su Yuan's' permissions temporarily elevated. 'Reality Interference Module (Beta Version)' unlocked.】

Since you show no mercy, don't blame me for being ruthless!

Su Yuan's eyes were filled with coldness.

On his system panel, a brand new module emitting a faint golden light slowly materialized.

He clicked on it without hesitation.

【Reality Interference Module (Beta Version)】

【Function One: Causality Tracking. Can consume personal points to track the causal chain of a specified target in the real world, locking onto their physical coordinates.】

【Function Two: Reality Data Synchronization. Can access and analyze all public and non-public network data streams in the real world.】

【Function Three:... (Insufficient permissions, not unlocked)】

Su Yuan's heart pounded wildly.

This was practically a divine skill tailor-made for the current situation!

"Track the overall commander of the Lighthouse Country's Ghost Plan, codename: Death!" Su Yuan issued the command in his mind.

【Target locked: Death.】

【Initiating Causality Tracking... Requires consumption of 10,000 personal points. Confirm payment?】

"Ten thousand points?" Su Yuan's mouth twitched.

His hard-earned little nest egg was about to be drained by nearly half in one go.

"Damn it, killing those motherfuckers is worth any cost!"

"Pay!"

As his thought solidified, the balance of his personal points on the system panel instantly decreased by ten thousand.

Simultaneously, the world network data flow diagram before his eyes began to undergo earth-shattering changes.

It was no longer simple lines and red dots.

Countless invisible golden threads representing causality materialized from the void, connecting the sources and terminals of those previous encrypted communications.

Su Yuan's perspective seemed to instantly elevate to an unimaginable dimension.

He saw those awakened agents, saw their methods of contact, saw their secretly established strongholds.

And one of the thickest, darkest golden threads ultimately pointed to one location.

At the same time, the 【Reality Data Synchronization】 function operated at full power.

All of Jiangnan City's surveillance camera networks, traffic flow data, mobile phone signal tower data, power grid load... a torrent of information flooded into Su Yuan's system like rivers converging into the sea.

The system, with computing power exceeding human imagination by billions of times, rapidly performed comparisons and screenings.

"Abnormal signal source locked..."

"Abnormal power consumption locked..."

"All life sign signals within the area are being blocked... Consistent with high-level military operation characteristics..."

In less than three minutes, all clues pointed to the same coordinates.

A high-definition satellite map instantly expanded on the screen before Su Yuan, a red marker blinking frantically on the map.

"Found it."

Su Yuan picked up the communicator and reconnected with General Lin Zhan.

"General, target coordinates are locked."

"West outskirts of Jiangnan City, abandoned Third Cold Storage. Coordinates: 118.43, 32.17."

"Academician Zhang should be there. Their ace, the one called Death, is also there."

Dead silence on the other end of the line.

A full five seconds passed before General Lin Zhan's voice, mixed with extreme shock and wild joy, suddenly exploded: "Coordinates received! I'm mobilizing the garrison troops immediately!"

"Wait, General." Su Yuan interrupted him. "For this operation, send the Dragon Team. Sending regular troops will only increase unnecessary casualties."

Su Yuan's eyes turned cold.

"This is a war between superhumans, and it must be resolved using superhuman methods."

"Agreed!" Lin Zhan decided immediately. "I grant you the highest operational authority! Wang Yi, did you hear that?"

"Received!"

Wang Yi stepped forward, his gaze as cold as Siberian ice.

He spoke into the communicator, word by word: "General, rest assured."

"We will bring back Academician Zhang, and the heads of those scum as well."
