280: How about we call it the Flame Dragon Armor?

The middle-aged man in front of him looked to be in his forties or fifties. Seeing the Police Captain respectfully leading the way in front of him like a subordinate, Su Yu knew without a doubt that this person's identity was absolutely extraordinary.

The Captain's face showed a respectful expression, then he turned and introduced the middle-aged man behind him.

"Leader, this is Mr. Su Yu, the one you wished to meet."

"Mr. Su did not leave after resolving the matter; instead, he has been sitting here waiting for you."

The Captain's words were artful, simultaneously introducing him to the leader and subtly hinting to Su Yu.

Su Yu, of course, hadn't stayed because he was waiting to meet the middle-aged man in front of him. Before just now, he had never even seen this person.

He didn't leave because he knew that carrying a strategically significant weapon like the nano battle armor meant he couldn't just go anywhere he pleased.

The Police Captain not keeping him for a conversation was because his rank was not high enough.

The person who truly wanted to find him would only appear after patient waiting.

Presumably, this middle-aged man, whose aura seemed out of place with his surroundings, was the one.

"You must be young Mr. Su! Indeed, you are young and handsome!"

After scrutinizing Su Yu from top to bottom, the middle-aged man, who had been stern-faced and serious, unexpectedly burst into laughter, then couldn't help but pat Su Yu vigorously on the shoulder.

The serious demeanor of a superior that was on his face moments ago vanished instantly, replaced by the look of an elder meeting a promising junior he was very pleased with.

Seeing this, Su Yu was also momentarily stunned by the stark contrast and surprise.

"You are...?"

He subconsciously blurted out.

Then he immediately closed his mouth, no longer asking questions.

The middle-aged man smiled and nodded, "Young Mr. Su, could we speak privately? It's not very convenient with so many people around."

As he spoke, he pointed to a Coaster parked not far away.

Su Yu nodded.

Actually, the moment the middle-aged man appeared, he had vaguely guessed the identity of the newcomer.

Who else could a leader, whom even city police respectfully led, be, if not someone from higher up?

So, the two, one in front and one behind, boarded the unassuming Coaster official car, with guards following at a distance.

This was Su Yu's first time riding in a Coaster.

He had initially thought, from its exterior, that it was just an ordinary bus, as ordinary as could be.

But who would have thought that as soon as he got on the car, he was immediately drawn in by the luxurious setup and spacious interior? The inside of the Coaster that appeared before him was nothing like the space of a car.

It was practically a high-end, elegant, and classy reception room!

The middle-aged man returned to his seat and gestured for the attendant in the car to pour Su Yu a cup of tea.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Duan Zhongping. The overall commander of the troops you met during the earthquake relief in Wen County was my former soldier and also my student."

With that simple sentence, Su Yu instantly knew the identity of the middle-aged man in front of him!

The other party must be a big shot from the military.

No wonder when Su Yu first saw him, he felt a sense of martial prowess from the middle-aged man! This feeling could only be possessed by an old leader who had spent his life in the military.

He just didn't know what kind of position the other party held.

As his thoughts raced, Su Yu stood up and quickly bowed respectfully.

He felt that this bow was absolutely necessary, both for public and private reasons.

It was not only out of respect for the other's identity but also the basic respect of a junior for an elder.

"Old Duan, do you think it's appropriate for me to address you like that?"

Duan Zhongping saw that the young man in front of him, after meeting him, was not arrogant but rather modest and sensible, and the smile on his face grew wider.

"Young Mr. Su, please make yourself at home. There aren't so many rules and regulations with me."

After bowing, Su Yu returned to his seat and sat down, quietly waiting for the middle-aged man to continue speaking.

Although he already knew the other's identity, he was actually very confused.

According to his guess, after the nano battle armor was publicly unveiled, he would definitely receive notification from relevant state departments.

Whether it was to talk to him or to learn and research his technology, these notifications should have come more from National Security or research-related departments.

But Su Yu never expected that with so many people wanting to find him, it was actually a big shot from the military who found him first.

The middle-aged man looked deeply at Su Yu, then continued to speak.

"Young Mr. Su, aren't you curious why, with so many people across the country wanting to find you at this time, I am the first one to approach you?"

Su Yu calmly replied.

"I am curious, but if Old Duan you are unwilling to say, asking would be futile. So, I will just listen to whatever you say."

Duan Zhongping sighed and slowly began.

"Hmm—actually, I also only received the news after being temporarily instructed by higher-ups."

"Young Mr. Su, I believe you should also know what day is approaching, right?"

Su Yu pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up sharply, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

"Army Day?"

Duan Zhongping nodded with satisfaction.

"That's right, Army Day is in two days."

"According to the military's plan, this year's military parade will be held uniformly on August 1st."

"In other words, this year's October military parade has been canceled and incorporated into August."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu's heart began to beat uncontrollably fast.

Although the news about this year's military parade being moved to August had been released a long time ago, as Su Yu, whose daily focus was entirely on his live streaming career, this was the first time he had heard of it.

As the most watched national event during anniversary celebrations, the military parade always garnered high attention.

If it weren't for the Global Robot Competition recently, the anniversary military parade would likely have been the most watched event by people nationwide for the past week.

Su Yu did not interrupt Duan Zhongping's words, continuing to listen attentively.

Duan Zhongping paused, looked at the young man in front of him, and continued.

"Young Mr. Su, what is the name of the flying armor you wore in today's robot competition? I know many young people online seem to call it something like iron man nano battle armor, but I want to know its true name."

The name of the nano battle armor?

Su Yu was taken aback by the question.

Come to think of it, since the armor's debut, he really hadn't given the battle armor he made a name.

He couldn't call it Lackey, could he? That's the name of the AI.

Seeing Su Yu momentarily speechless, Duan Zhongping's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had guessed something.

"Young Mr. Su, you haven't named the battle armor you designed yet?"

Su Yu scratched his head awkwardly.

"Then how about this, what if I give it a name?"

As Duan Zhongping spoke, his emotions became increasingly excited.

"We are descendants of Yan Huang, and also descendants of the dragon. This battle armor emerged in China, shocking the world. How about we call it the Blazing Dragon Armor?!"
