Delta Operation: Big Red Objects Mutate

At this point, Sayed paused, then said very reluctantly:

"Of course, I'm not a threat to you."

"But you know, I've already killed all my derivatives."

"Once you kill the real Reis and all his derivatives, this will all be over."

"As for Raven and Tyrant... they are indeed a bit difficult to deal with, but they shouldn't be a big problem for you."

"But do you think it's possible to dismantle Hafk?"

"Let's not even talk about how you're going to fight against those Blue Eagle helicopters and countless other vehicles all by yourself."

"Just talking about Demulan's strength, you know it better than anyone else."

Sayed's words plunged the young man into a brief silence.

Then the young man slowly spoke:

“If you tell me now that everything you said before was a lie, I can try to dismantle Asara right now.”

"In the experiences you've shared with me, aren't you all victims?"

“Now, you have come to my homeland with Hafk, which is no different from Hafk invading you.”

“In my eyes, you were all enemies.”

"But since I met you, I've realized that you're different from them."

"And you also told me about your experience."

"Anyone with a brain knows whether it was Hafk or Asara who caused all this!"

Is there a victim-blaming mentality?

"You want me to choose the simpler Asara and wipe them all out? To restore peace to my homeland?"

"Give me a few more cans of wine. You're so stingy, and you call yourself a leader."

Finally, the young man gave Said a few shoves, clearly annoyed.

"Alright, alright, I'll take it now."

Sayed slapped the young man's arm aside in annoyance and took out four more cans from his chest bag.

"That's all, it's all for you, drink your fill."

"I'll go with you tomorrow."

After accepting the wine, the young man didn't rush to drink it. Instead, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket.

Snap!

A flame appeared, and with the young man's inhale, the cigarette butt was quickly lit.

"call--"

The young man slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.

"I said, it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death, whether it's you or Cai Ning."

"Survival is more important than anything else."

After saying that, the young man opened the can and started drinking.

After finishing his drink, the young man offered him a cigarette.

"Would you like one?"

Saeed waved his hand and said sarcastically:

"No, I need to live, what if I get lung cancer?"

"Tch, showing off." The young man scoffed and put away his cigarette.

"Why didn't Cai come with you today?" Said asked.

The young man waved his hand.

"I told him I'd go by myself, but he insisted on coming with me. Isn't that just making things more complicated?"

"But that makes sense. If I die, he won't live much longer either."

"He's probably writing his will at home right now. It's just the two of us in the whole world, and I don't know who he's writing it for."

Hearing this, Sayed sighed again.

"You're starting to complain now? You killed at least half of your own people, didn't you?"

"I've advised you so many times to cooperate with them; at least there's strength in numbers."

The young man waved his hand dismissively.

"Don't be naive. Do you not understand human nature, or do you not understand war?"

"Putting aside the fact that they each control their own territories and are constantly engaged in small-scale wars, what if they betray me at a crucial moment? What should I do?"

"Everyone has ulterior motives; killing them will only bring peace."

After hearing the young man's answer, Sayed was speechless for a moment, and finally could only shake his head helplessly and say:

"What about Cai boy?"

“You have the power, you can make the choice. It’s your business if you can’t bring yourself to dismantle Asara, but do you want him to die with you because of your choice?”

The young man did not answer, but took out a quantum storage device from the inside pocket of his clothes.

"I have this."

The young man took out a crystal-clear diamond from it.

“I tried telling him to end the war, but it didn’t work. I told him to get out of here, but that didn’t work either.”

"But I think if I want him to live, I should be able to do it."

"After all, the gap is huge. Letting him live is far better than ending the war or getting you out of here."

Saeed shook his head.

"It's because there's no hope left in your world, so..."

Said didn't continue speaking, but sighed helplessly again.

After finishing all four cans of wine, the young man stood up and stretched.

"Alright, it's getting dark, I need to find a place to sleep. My things might get stolen by those soldiers if I stay here."

"I have to fight one last battle tomorrow, I can't let them hold me back."

"By the way, Lao Sai, if I die, don't forget to collect my body."

"I don't want to die and be put on a brain machine by Hafk."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing. If you have time, help me beat up your Asara soldiers."

"I was already at a disadvantage, and they still fucking started shooting at me!"

Said looked at the incessantly chattering young man in front of him and couldn't help but give a wry smile.

But Sayyid memorized every single word the other person said.

Because he knew that this was the last time the two of them would meet.

“Those soldiers are all derivatives; their original forms are long gone. Why bother arguing with them?”

“Once you die, I’ll feed your corpse to the crocodiles, so that Hafk will never be able to put a brain machine in you.”

After hearing what Saeed had to say, the young man burst into laughter.

"Okay, it's settled then. I'm leaving."

The young man waved his hand and turned to leave.

Said sat on the hillside, his gaze lingering on the direction in which the young man was about to disappear.

The afterglow of the setting sun cast dappled light and shadow on his face, reflecting his complex expression.

Resentment, worry, and a touch of indescribable admiration.

The last rays of dawn faded from the horizon, and night was about to fall.

The scene seemed to imply some kind of outcome, causing Sayyid's heart to sink to the bottom.

"Liu Yan! Even knowing the outcome, are you still going to insist?!"

Saeed finally couldn't hold back any longer and stood up abruptly, his voice sounding somewhat hoarse in the twilight.

Liu Yan didn't turn around, but simply raised his arm and waved it lightly.

"We have to try, otherwise are we just waiting to die?"

This simple gesture is both a farewell and a silent promise.

Liu Yan's figure eventually disappeared into the deepening night.

Said was left standing alone on the hillside, letting the evening breeze from Dam Zero whip his clothes.

And that line that echoed through the mountains.

"We have to try, otherwise are we just waiting to die?"

Chapter 145 Brilliant Star

"How difficult is it to cross?" Liu Yan joked.

Liu Yan's voice interrupted Said's recollection.

"What did you say?" Said looked at Liu Yan in disbelief.

"I said, how difficult is the name of this wine, which is 'Guan Shan Nan Yue' (meaning 'difficult to cross mountains and passes')?"

Liu Yan said with a smile, but Said remained stunned for a long time, his eyes fixed on Liu Yan.

After staring at it for a while, Sayed shook his head with a self-deprecating smile.

The possibility is too low.

Even though the two people share the same name, it is still just a very common name.

Moreover, the person I knew had been dead for 30 years.

Although the level of skill the person in front of me displayed in the administration building vaguely resembled that of that person, the difference in strength between the two was not insignificant.

The person in front of me is still too weak.

After all, back then, that person was the one who chased and beat him up, instead of being chased all over the administration building by him.

Furthermore, their personalities are completely different.

Back then, that man, out of consideration for himself, did not show excessive dislike for the Asara Guard soldiers.

But that's all. After all, in his eyes, he and Hafk were both foreign invaders.

Not to mention that they put all their effort into these soldiers.

boom----!

A soldier fell beside Sayed, interrupting Sayed's thoughts.

Although the soldier fell, he was not nearly killed as he had been before.

Liu Yan just saw that the soldier tried to mitigate the impact before landing.

"Not bad, there is progress."

"There's not much time left. You can gradually improve your skills from here on out. The real training is about to begin."

As Liu Yan spoke, he retrieved the Horizontal and Vertical Array from the quantum storage, then stood up, looked down at Said sitting on the hillside, and asked:

"Said, why don't you come and play some games with me?"

Saeed waved his hand.

"I can't wear that. I can't wear it."

Seeing this, Liu Yan didn't say anything more, turned around and led the soldiers to start the next round of training.
