Chapter 819: Death Battle 5

With a bitter laugh, the senior military officials exchanged a glance.

Normally, to obtain the disaster mitigation reward, the best way is to open war zone warfare and seize the enemy's flag.

Sending small teams to hunt the enemy has little effect.

Killing a hundred is still not as good as capturing the flag for one hour, let alone the fact that our side also suffers casualties during the hunt.

To be frank, if not for the Huaxia Military's fighting spirit, which has been number one in the world since its founding.

At this point, they were somewhat desperate.

Earlier, the various war zones that had secretly allied for some reason all violated the agreement.

No matter how generous and sincere the conditions they offered, these war zones seemed bewitched, joining the Euro-American alliance without hesitation.

"Have you found any trace of Lin An?"

In the midst of assessing the situation, a senior official suddenly spoke up.

Under various circumstances, they have consistently kept a high level of attention on Lin An.

But for some reason, this person seems to have vanished.

He shook his head; the Awakened One in charge of organizing intelligence also showed a hint of suspicion.

"None, including our few scouts planted in other war zones, have not sent back any news of Lin An."

"I even wonder whether he didn't participate in the Death Battle at all, or simply hid himself."

The Awakened One who asked the question was startled, his face showing a strange expression.

"He probably doesn't dare to come in, right.."

"But it's also normal; he has so many points, and the system seems to target him, prohibiting the transfer of points."

"The cost of his death is too great.. If it were me, I'd probably be too lazy to enter the Death Battle. With so many points, keeping them to cultivate my own power is not much worse than fighting to the death..."

Just...

Under the disaster, if Lin An truly chose this approach, it would indeed make people feel disgusted.

"Captain Lin, time's about up!"

He patted his buttocks, Zhang Tie contentedly let out a belch, glanced at the nearly empty training square.

"Hmm, let's go."

He gave a soft hum, Lin An drew Cain's Blade with a backhand and headed straight for the light pillar.

"Layer selection: 3, entry point: defensive range of the Korean war zone."

"Confirm?"

The system prompt sounded, and he unhesitatingly selected confirm.

"Hum-"

A slight buzzing, the two instantly vanished from the spot.

At the moment of disappearance, a flash of killing intent passed through Lin An's eyes.

I suppose many people must be waiting anxiously...

"Still haven't tracked down Lin An?"

Death Battle Layer 3, garrison of the Korean war zone.

They, numbering around two hundred Awakened Ones, gathered together somewhat irritably.

Compared to the lower layers, layer three is obviously much safer, to the extent that they had nothing to do before the great battle erupted.

"No, that kid is as if he never entered."

"Nothing on the compass!"

Holding the south-pointing needle device, an Awakened One bearing a giant crossbow replied irritably.

Under the scorching sun overhead, the layer three battlefield was like a furnace.

On average, they asked once per hour.

Especially the North American war zone, after learning an hour ago that they had made no progress, directly threatened them that if they still couldn't find Lin An, they should prepare to be "flag sacrificed."

The compass device is an accessory of the mechanical compass.

It was obtained after Lin An left Busan; the Korean side, to prevent this monster from attacking again, deliberately mobilized large manpower to acquire this device.

It is highly targeted.

The south-pointing needle can roughly locate the position of a meme or an anomalous entity.

Of course, for them, its greatest function is to use the accessory's characteristics to track Lin An's whereabouts.

"Damn!"

He cursed quietly.

The frustrated Korean high-level officials couldn't help but clench their fists tightly.

The North American war zone uses them as tools, the neutral alliance doesn't want them, let alone the Huaxia war zone.

It's almost the third day, and the honor they've obtained is pitifully little.

They are few in number and weak in strength; if not for this device that can track Lin An, the North American war zone wouldn't even let them join.

Even as a dog, one must know how to bite.

Looking at the unresponsive compass, the Awakened One bearing the giant crossbow grew ever darker in expression.

If Lin An really didn't enter, or if they are utterly useless.

No need to think; when the time comes to distribute rewards, the North American war zone will definitely not give them any disaster mitigation reward at all!

Or simply find an excuse to kill them and gain honor!

It's like riding a tiger—hard to get off.

In a situation of three-way polarization, they can't even hunt down other small war zones.

Just thinking about the desperate situation their war zone was about to face, this enormous pressure almost drove them crazy.

"Coward! Trash! Weakling!! Worthless!"

"He Lin An is so arrogant!! Come out if you dare!!"

Curses rang out.

Only by finding Lin An could they receive the reward.

Although they knew that if they really encountered Lin An and he fled directly, they wouldn't be able to catch him.

Even in a firefight, their side would suffer heavy losses.

But as long as Lin An revealed his whereabouts, the entire allied forces would swarm out to surround and kill him.

They, however, weren't worried about anything.

The entire third level was stationed with half of humanity's top combat power.

Irritated, they guarded near the Korean flag.

At this moment they wished the compass needle would move a bit, so they could catch a glimpse of Lin An.

A teammate beside him watched the emotionally uncontrolled giant crossbow man and couldn't help but sigh.

Since encountering Lin An, their vast war zone, with the full might of a nation, actually felt so stifled.

Damn trash!

New and old grudges, plus the Huaxia Survivors rebelling everywhere within their own war zone.

Toward Hua Guo people and Lin An, they truly loathed them to the bone.

Amid the cursing, the Awakened One standing behind the giant crossbow man unconsciously glanced at the needle in his hand.

0.1 seconds later, he seemed to see an unbelievable scene.

"Park Chan-yeom... the... the... needle.."

The previously still south-pointing needle twitched slightly, its tiny movement as if pointing toward the sky.

Huh!?

The giant crossbow man looked at him in surprise, then suddenly realized.

He lowered his head, and when he likewise saw the moving needle, a look of ecstasy flashed across his face.

He appeared! Lin An appeared!

Was he hiding in the nearby skies?

Before he could think of contacting the North American war zone, a mocking laugh accompanied a burst of brilliant white light.

"I heard."

"Are you looking for me?"

Under the scorching sun, it felt like falling into an ice cellar.

He heard the sound of something tearing through the air.

He stared, then looked up.

Lin An... how could he... appear above our heads!!
