Chapter 644: Electromagnetic Restraint
After issuing the final order, Jin Yicheng slowly sat back beside the monitoring center, motionless.
Lin An, who broke into the Double Star Base, was like a wolf rushing into a flock of sheep.
The broadcast attempt at contact drew no response.
They sent death warriors to try to negotiate, but no one could utter a complete sentence in front of Lin An.
Especially in another direction, there was a black bear in the laboratory.
Besides wanting to dig out the laboratory, the other side ignored any attempt at communication.
From the start, they paid no attention to the other side, using troops to encircle and suppress, up to now...
He only hoped the other side would say a word, what exactly their intention was?
Combined with the other side's movement trajectory, they actually looted everywhere throughout the base.
This clearly meant that the other side had never scouted the base's situation in the early stage, even...
Jin Yicheng seriously suspected that perhaps the other side didn't even know what they were secretly doing at first.
Are these two people Awakened Ones from other places in Great Han?
Only upon seeing the escaped test subject did they suddenly decide to go on a killing spree?
He felt a heavy depression in his heart.
What do you want? Let's negotiate!
With such strength, I, Jin Yicheng, am not a fool; I know when to advance or retreat.
Even if our guess is correct, this person is rescuing the Huaxia Awakened Ones imprisoned in the laboratory.
He also had enough confidence to persuade the other side to stop.
He had offered enough benefits; he didn't believe the other side wouldn't be moved.
Moreover... cooperation might not be impossible.
At worst, he would later give up capturing the Hua Guo nationals stranded in Great Han.
Earlier, he had used Fushan survivors for experiments; he had done it before.
But what Jin Yicheng didn't know was...
Lin An was indeed as he had thought, acting on a spur-of-the-moment idea.
At first he only wanted to threaten them a bit, collect a 'protection fee' and be done.
If nothing happened, destroying a base for fun—Lin An wasn't that perverted yet.
But on a whim, wanting to test his strength, he changed the plan.
Days felt like years; time trickled by bit by bit.
The red alarm light never ceased.
In less than a minute, the other bases that Jin Yicheng wanted to contact almost simultaneously replied.
"Defense pressure is huge; we cannot provide support."
"Please resolve it yourselves."
"If faced with an irresistible threat, you may retreat toward the Fushan Station direction."
"We can accept some survivors."
Fushan military, external troops stationed there.
The messages from the leaders of the two Safe Zones were almost identical.
From their words, a strong sense of distrust was clearly conveyed.
Especially the US Military Base in Korea, whose wording was unusually harsh, mocking them for not playing any tricks.
Two Awakened Ones, killing them to the point that the Double Star Base began calling for help?
Is it because the transformation materials are insufficient? Wanting to trick our people into going over?
Since the start of the transformation experiments, the reputation of the Double Star Base abroad has become infamous.
For the lower ranks, most survivors are unaware of the inside information.
But for the higher-ups, and even for powerful Awakened Ones...
They know how the Double Star Base was established.
Therefore, Jin Yicheng's plea for help was directly ignored.
Looking at the messages from the two forces, he couldn't help but feel his face twitch with anger.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't believe there could be such a powerful Awakened One, acting so arrogantly.
He felt somewhat powerless.
After a while, Jin Yicheng suddenly stood up and gave his subordinates a new order.
"Bring back the Electromagnetic Restraint Props."
"If these bastards don't believe me, then we'll all perish together!"
The Electromagnetic Restraint Props were obtained by exchanging prestige earned from completing a high-difficulty task, which the base had painstakingly finished and gathered everyone for, from the system.
Originally, it was used to prevent that coastal monster from landing.
It can be said that the frontline could allocate part of its forces to control the port, relying precisely on this prop to restrain that monster.
Once taken away, the consequences would be unimaginable.
But right now, Jin Yicheng felt he had been driven to a dead end.
Those two people virtually ignored the artillery bombardment.
Awakened Ones were utterly powerless to fight back.
If the delay continued, he truly feared that the next second he would see Lin An appear before him.
People die, and then they have nothing left!
This is a madman!
Listening to the bad news constantly coming from his subordinates, his heart was dripping blood.
If the Twin Stars Base had tactical nuclear bombs, I estimate I would not hesitate to throw them over, just hoping to blast the enemy to death.
This unknown oppressive force is really too great.
Just as the atmosphere in the command room was heavy, an officer from the frontier region suddenly stood up.
What!!
Among the people brought by those two Awakened Ones, does anyone know that person's information?!
Seeing the emergency information sent from the outer soldiers, the petty officer chief hurriedly reported to Jin Yicheng.
At the same time, amidst the alarm sounds outside the door, several remodeled mechanical soldiers also escorted Han Youzhen and others rushing in.
Hands bound behind back, complex expression.
Han Youzhen opened her mouth, looking at the somewhat excited companion beside her, wanting to say something.
Fifteen minutes ago, they were already controlled by the Twin Stars Base.
And the survivors in our team actually speculated that the mysterious person might be Lin An.
In their agitated state, these few people were about to report to the Twin Stars Base.
Is it you? You know what happened to those two people?!
Jin Yicheng disregarded his own position, stepping straight up to a female student, gripping her collar tightly:
Who is that person! What do you know?!
In their agitated state, the oppressive aura brought by the Awakened Ones forced the girl to have difficulty breathing.
She, somewhat fearful, opened her mouth and uttered those words from her throat:
It... it's Lin An!! That person might be Lin An!
Just as the voice fell, hundreds of Awakened Ones in the command room all turned their gazes over, many faces filled with intense shock, as if they had misheard.
The name Lin An, they are too familiar with it.
Jin Yicheng heard the voice and was stunned, not really believing it, he quickly asked:
Why say that?
What evidence do you have?!
The girl being questioned, disregarding Han Youzhen's unpleasant expression, eyes showing recollection:
We are not his allies; we met him on the road.
That person's strength is terrifyingly strong, so we followed him.
Just a few hours ago, at the inn, we encountered a very strange mutant.
When that monster was dying, it chanted a bunch of names.
Among them was Lin An!
After hearing that, Jin Yicheng dazedly released the girl's collar, the two characters 'Lin An' flashed like a bolt from the blue across his mind.
Lin An!?
Is it Lin An!?
Suspected Huaxia Awakened One... great strength... and deliberately targeting them...
What the girl said is probably nine out of ten true!
Damn it!
This demon deceived the authorities and still isn't enough; now it comes looking for trouble for me!?
No matter how he thinks, he can't figure out how the other party could cross tens of thousands of kilometers and appear here.
Is it because... I didn't fall for the auction's trick?
