Chapter 129 Psychological Warfare

In an instant, blood soared into the sky!

Karen staggered and fell. Li Tianran struck his life-weakness point with a knife, and his life force gradually faded away.

But a cold smile still hung on his face, as if mocking Li Tianran for ultimately falling into his trap!

The office was deathly silent.

The Xijiang Chief, Gang Ya, clenched his teeth.

All efforts, all possibilities, vanished like bubbles with Li Tianran’s strike.

Li Tianran dropped the broken knife in his hand. He had many ways to prove that Karen wasn't Fiers, but he didn't do it. The reason was simple: whether Karen's true identity was discovered or not, the fact that he had broken into the Xijiang Military Region couldn't be changed. Moreover, the fact that he possessed Gu Yao-level (ancient medicine) crops was obviously known to the Chief and others.

Li Tianran understood the principle that a common man is doomed by his wealth.

In this special environment, Li Tianran didn't think that killing a jackal for the Xijiang Military Region would make them politely send him home!

No matter the purpose, the Xijiang Military Region would attack him.

Since the future was unavoidable, there was no need to verify Karen's true identity!

Innocence, right and wrong, were they important?

Not at all!

"You've made all our efforts… go down the drain!" The Xijiang Chief clenched his fists, his voice filled with anger.

Li Tianran turned to look at him, not saying the words, "Actually, I saved you again," because it was completely meaningless.

Karen was dead. Li Tianran didn't stay any longer. He picked up Yuan Wen and said softly, "I've taken back what was stolen. Now everything is resolved… Let's go!"

"There are at least twelve thousand people waiting for you outside. As soon as you show your face, they can blow you to pieces! How are you going to leave?" The Xijiang Chief thundered, "You can't leave!"

…

The Xijiang Military Region headquarters building had almost become a battlefield.

The most elite special forces were on the innermost side, and extending outward were the mech teams and artillery teams, a dark mass resembling a sea, and the number was still increasing, with troops pouring in from all directions.

Li Tianran stood by the window, looking at the distant military formation. The Xijiang Chief strode up behind him and said sternly, "The headquarters has two divisions, nearly ten thousand people, and the nearby sub-war zones will send reinforcements after receiving orders! Do you think you can break out of here?"

Below, heads swarmed. Helicopters circled in the sky, and infrared rays from sniper rifles flickered incessantly in the distance, so numerous that they seemed to weave a large net in the night sky.

"This is the most elite force in the world. They are battle-hardened, and their firepower can capture seven major cities in three days!"

"How are you going to get through their encirclement?"

The Xijiang Chief stood beside Li Tianran. Since Karen had been killed by Li Tianran, the Chief seemed to have no more concerns, and that fierce aura returned.

"I don't need to get through their encirclement," Li Tianran said calmly. "I will make you send me out personally."

The Xijiang Chief stared at Li Tianran and said expressionlessly, "You're joking."

Li Tianran opened his palm, and a sky-blue, crystal-ball-like object appeared in his palm.

"Miniature neutron bomb, a special tactical nuclear weapon. The explosive effect is very weak, but the radiation is very strong… only effective against living organisms." Li Tianran said calmly, "The radiation area is three kilometers, covering the entire military district command system."

"There are now more than ten thousand people outside this command building. As soon as it explodes, everyone will die from radiation… That's right, except for us, because we are Evolvers and immune to radiation," Li Tianran said calmly.

The Xijiang Chief's brow furrowed.

He looked at the "miniature neutron bomb" in Li Tianran's hand and suddenly smiled: "Are you bluffing me?"

"I also know something about neutron bombs. There is no nuclear weapon in the world that appears in this state."

The neutron bomb in Li Tianran's hand looked like a cheap crystal ball from a store, emitting a blue light, completely different from the image of nuclear weapons stored in the world.

"It may be a neutron bomb, or it may be a music box… Do you want to take a gamble?" Li Tianran asked softly, "Of course, the consequences of losing are serious. The Xijiang Military Region is severely damaged, the entire Xijiang border is lost… The European Union takes advantage of the situation…"

"I don't want to be a sinner in history either."

Li Tianran said softly, "So, don't force me."

"You're playing psychological warfare with me." The Xijiang Chief said very seriously, "You are deliberately exaggerating the consequences to cover up your guilty conscience."

"Then let's try it," Li Tianran said, instantly exerting force with his five fingers, and pinching down on the crystal ball in his palm.

*Pa!*

The Xijiang Chief directly pressed down on Li Tianran's palm, stopping his action.

After a long while, he slowly said, "If it were just me here, I would definitely bet with you! Because I am ninety-nine percent sure that this is a toy! But there are tens of thousands of soldiers outside this building, and they are the foundation of the Federation. Even if there is a one percent chance that it is a neutron bomb, I will not let them take the risk with me. You win!"

Although the Xijiang Chief absolutely did not believe that the ghost thing in Li Tianran's hand was a neutron bomb, he really didn't dare to gamble, not only because of the tens of thousands of lives outside the command building, but also because Li Tianran's previous performance was indeed too mysterious.

A person who can possess the ability to "distort space-time," even if the ghost thing in his hand is not a neutron bomb, he must have the ability to get a real neutron bomb!

Li Tianran's momentum was too strong just now.

So strong that it made people feel unsure, so strong that it made people dare not gamble!

Although the Xijiang Chief had been in a high position for a long time and was well-informed, even the emperors of feudal dynasties would be in awe when faced with such "miraculous" performances.

After all, people are people, and they will have a sense of dread and fear for things beyond their knowledge.

…

Ten minutes later, Li Tianran, carrying Yuan Wen and Hanhan, boarded a helicopter with the Xijiang Chief, and then drove towards the border line.

The tens of thousands of troops outside the command building watched Li Tianran and the others leave without anyone stopping them.

Because this was the Chief's order.

When the helicopter left the Federation's borders and flew to a vast sea, Li Tianran breathed a sigh of relief. It was only then that he realized that his clothes were soaked with cold sweat, and at the same time, an extremely strong sense of fatigue surged up.

Faced with the encirclement of tens of thousands of troops, although he had shown extreme fearlessness before, the fear in his heart was only known to him!

"According to the agreement, I have sent you out of the country, you can leave." The Xijiang Chief looked out the window with a calm expression, without any unease of being coerced: "From today, you will become the number one wanted targets of the Yanhuang Federation. As long as you dare to show up, you will definitely be strangled!"

Li Tianran had expected this result, and he didn't expect that the first country to become hostile to him would actually be his homeland.

He could only say… things are unpredictable.

"That… is that thing really a neutron bomb?" The Xijiang Chief raised his chin towards Li Tianran's palm.

Li Tianran hesitated, and then reached out and pinched down hard.

In an instant, colorful lights filled the entire dark helicopter cabin.

At the same time, melodious music sounded.

"Don't look at me as just a sheep, the sheep's intelligence is unimaginable!"

"No matter how high the sky is, my mood is still unrestrained!"

"Chasing the sun every day!"

"Happy Sheep! Beautiful Sheep!"

The colorful light shone on the Xijiang Chief's face, he slowly closed his eyes, and cursed in a low voice:

"Son of a b*tch…"
