Chapter 488: Confidence

oxg The official beside him also did not dare to speak again, his eyes full of doubt.

After a moment, he couldn't help but speak:

"General Fan, Lin An won't just rely on the missiles on the fighter jet to bomb the other seven families one by one, will he?"

"Does this approach mean his strength is insufficient?"

"Are we really just going to watch?"

They started passing the buck.

In the early Apocalypse, humanity's main means were still technological weapons, especially for attacking people...

The political officials couldn't help but want General Fan to give some ideas; he didn't really want to offend any of the three factions.

The Wangjiang Military Region's remarks sounded like nonsense to him.

It might be fake; the Wangjiang Military Region has long joined the faction behind Lin An, otherwise why would they keep saying they haven't found Lin An?

General Fan glanced at the political official who seemed worried but actually wanted him to take the lead, and couldn't help but snort.

"You don't want to offend one of the three factions, but I do?"

Especially the situation in the capital is so strange; up to now, no orders have come from above.

After thinking, he closed his eyes, focused, and slowly said:

"It hasn't come to that yet."

"In theory, the missiles mounted on the fighter jet are enough to destroy several of the Deadly Combat forces, but this move can only be used once."

"That is, the Grain City gathering place is foolish, thinking to concentrate fire and kill Lin An, which led to this situation."

"If they had merely dispersed and taken cover, a single missile could not have wiped out so many people."

"As long as Lin An lands, they still have a chance."

Behind him, Bai Yu hearing this, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

"What do you mean, the Grain City Awakened Ones are stupid?"

"Obviously we hadn't thought of that earlier..."

"In the previous discussion, General, you also thought that gathering together and concentrating fire to kill Lin An was the optimal solution, right..."

"However, Lin An's initial performance gave people the impression that he was still acting on his own."

"Not daring to argue, Bai Yu sighed and began to analyze:"

"As for the other major forces, we won't concern ourselves with them."

"Actually, Lin An's approach precisely confirms my earlier guess."

"He expended a large amount of mental power at the outset just to create that scene."

"A very smart move."

"First make everyone think they should gather together and preemptively concentrate fire, then use the missile to cause that idea to fail."

"Thus, the other forces are neither gathered together nor not gathered; if they don't gather, they will be picked off one by one."

He felt a sense of admiration.

"I have to say, Lin An's tactical thinking at this point still has some merit."

"But..."

Bai Yu shook his head and smiled:

"This also shows that he actually lacks confidence in taking on so many forces alone; I even guess his mental power has already been depleted by more than half."

"Otherwise, he could have saved the missile as a final trump card to counter the Modern Safe Zone."

"Using this backup so early actually shows his strength is insufficient and he has no confidence in himself."

"Therefore, we don't need to worry about anything."

"The official nodded, half-understanding, and pointed at the high-speed fighter jet on the screen:"

"So, Lin An is actually at the end of his rope. He doesn't dare to act again?"

"Putting it bluntly, using this backup so early might reveal his decline in the upcoming battle."

"Hearing the official's question, General Fan nodded somewhat hesitantly."

"What Bai Yu said is correct; according to common sense, that is indeed the case."

"Once the other forces realize this, the missile's effectiveness will be greatly reduced."

"Lin An must engage in ground combat no matter what."

"No disrespect to Lin An, but in his estimation, Lin An's behavior clearly means that at most two or three bursts will exhaust his mental power."

"Perhaps the other forces could literally drag him to death."

"Moreover:"

"That's the case."

"The Modern Safe Zone has weapons and equipment supported by our military."

"They not only have large armored corps, but also air defense. Originally, the Huanjiang Military Region thought anti-air weapons were useless at this stage and gave them to them to be refitted for fighting mutants,"

"but now they can actually be surprisingly effective."

"Under anti-air fire, although the Modern Safe Zone lacks precise instruments to lock onto fighter jets and cannot directly shoot them down,"

"but blocking the missile's trajectory is still possible."

"As long as Lin An dares to leave the fighter jet, he won't even have a chance to land."

"Therefore, the Modern Safe Zone is actually sufficient to counter Lin An."

"Saying this, he gestured to the staff behind him to replay the footage of Lin An's second \"landing\"."

"Look, Lin An himself has no flying ability."

"His method of moving in the air is actually somewhat like stepping on air to change direction."

This point is actually somewhat like a special Awakened One under my command.

He can also achieve a similar ability.

However, this ability has a fatal flaw: it is extremely susceptibleible to explosions, impacts, and interference.

Speaking bluntly, as soon as Lin An launches his fighter jet, he cannot maintain movement in the air amidst explosions.

Even if the air defense system can't kill him, the blast effect alone can render him immobile.

Bai Yu listened and wholeheartedly agreed.

He also thought the same.

If Lin An were to attack from the ground, setting aside that his position would be exposed in the livestream, as long as he dares to land, no matter how far away...

As long as he is discovered...

No, under the system display, Lin An cannot hide.

Lin An on the ground cannot withstand artillery barrage.

After all, psionic Awakened Ones aren't that fast.

Even if he can accelerate briefly, he cannot charge into the modern Safe Zone.

Therefore.

Bai Yu and Fan Jun Zhang exchanged a glance and involuntarily relaxed.

Lin An wants to win, so he can only take the initiative.

After all, time is on their side.

As long as the capital side settles the situation, we believe the higher-ups will issue orders.

Then, we will have nothing to do with them.

Inside the modern Safe Zone.

Zhang Ming looked at the screen with confidence and slowly gave the order:

"Activate air defense! Prevent Lin An from approaching!"

"Armored corps on standby, ready to bombard Lin An's landing point at any time!"

"Everyone take cover in fortifications! We must prepare in advance!"

"All Awakened Ones enter combat readiness, stop the hundred-person squad following the Second Level Awakened One Lin Han! Kill them on sight!"

His gaze confident.

Compared to the panicked leaders of other factions, Zhang Ming, a military veteran, remained as composed as ever.

Except that he was indeed shocked at first.

But now thinking about it, if Lin An truly only has this much ability...

Come on, Lin An.

I will let you know the gap between the military and private forces.

Sometimes, the gap in strength cannot be made up by scheming and trickery!
