Delta Operation: Big Red Objects Mutate

"Don't let my youth fool you, I'm a seasoned collector. This is a specialty of Asara, used for making liquor."

After saying that, the young man took a deep sniff of the cup and showed a satisfied expression of praise.

"Old man, remember to save the best items for me next time. My standing in the collecting world depends on you."

The young man returned his old cup to the recycling stall owner, then left satisfied with his brand-new cup.

"this..."

Fudge watched the young man humming a tune as he walked away, speechless for a moment.

He watched Liu Yan pull that cup out of his crotch.

"Your circle is really messy." Fudge shook his head.

"Let's calculate how much these cost, I'm in a hurry."

After saying that, Fudge urged the old man at the recycling stall to hurry up.

After all, the betting tournament is about to start, and when Liu Yan and the others come back, the group still needs to go and buy equipment.

The recycling stall owner had been doing this for many years and was already very familiar with the process, so he quickly calculated the accounts.

“It’s worth about 265 million, but I’ll give you 270 million this time.”

Before Fuji could even be happy, the old man stretched out his hand.

"Hey, don't rush."

Looking around, the old man at the recycling stall leaned close to Fudge's ear and whispered:

“I know you’re with that guy. Tell him to get more of these kinds of items. It’s a business opportunity. I’ll share the profits with you.”

After saying that, the old man patted Fudge on the shoulder and grinned mischievously.

.....

School corridor.

As Liu Yan and his companion emerged from the mist, they immediately spotted the large group of students surrounding them.

The most conspicuous among them was Lin Han, who was spitting as he spoke.

“I know everyone is angry, but I am also helpless. After all, Liu Yan almost ruined us financially.”

"Now, it's only natural that they would do something like evading the deposit match; I expected it."

Upon seeing this, the surrounding classmates all showed expressions of disgust.

The situation was completely different for Liu Yan's classmates.

"Don't listen to his nonsense! There was definitely something fishy about the Bakshi incident!"

"Exactly! Yan Shen didn't avoid the bounty tournament either. He's already earned more than 600 million in just three games. He's definitely selling off his equipment now!"

Several classmates of Liu Yan tried their best to defend themselves, but their weak voices were completely drowned out in the corridor.

"Stop being a brainless fan, did that good-for-nothing drug you guys?"

"Exactly, they've been waiting at the entrance for ages, do you think he'll dare to come?"

Gathering the students in the corridor to denounce Liu Yan was not actually Lin Han's primary goal.

In fact, he did not want Liu Yan to run away, otherwise the special items he had prepared would have been wasted.

Even if he could overwhelm Liu Yan with his strength, it wouldn't be enough to completely crush Liu Yan's pride.

He wanted to make Liu Yan realize the gap between them in terms of capital!

"The betting contest can begin now, time's up."

Liu Yan's voice came from behind the door behind Lin Han.

"The God of Words!!!"

"I knew it! Yan Shen couldn't possibly be absent. These betting tournaments are just a way to give Yan Shen money!"

Upon seeing Liu Yan appear, the students, who had been feeling frustrated for half a day, immediately started shouting in unison.

Liu Yan's appearance was clearly somewhat unexpected for Lin Han.

Did this guy really use those few hours to earn the money needed for the deposit competition, just like those classmates said?

No, I don't believe it!

This guy must have gone in to apply for a loan! Yes! That's it!

Thinking of this, Lin Han chuckled and said sarcastically:

"I never expected that someone like you would have a decent credit history and still be able to get a loan."

"Don't say I didn't leave you a way out, your classmates are all here now."

"If you publicly admit the truth of what happened back then and give me another million to express my apology, I can agree to cancel the deposit competition."

At this moment, Guo Li, who was standing to the side, also jumped out to agree:

"Exactly, if a poor bastard like you loses the betting tournament, how long will it take your mom to attract customers?"

Upon hearing this, the two burst into laughter.

Some students who were just watching the show started laughing and joining in the commotion.

Upon hearing Guo Li's insults, Zhao Chuang instantly rushed forward, raising his foot to kick Guo Li away.

However, a figure passed Zhao Chuang before that.

Chapter 32 Open to the Entire School—Deposit Contest

At this moment, Liu Yan's right hand was in a claw shape, gripping Guo Li's Adam's apple.

Now, with just a little effort, he can deprive Guo Li of the right to speak.

Just as the students were shouting for the group to fight, a dignified voice rang out.

"You've already lost your humanity before even having much contact with the Third District!"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, the students stopped what they were doing and dispersed to both sides of the corridor.

The dispersing crowd formed a passage, and Liu Yan looked in the direction of the sound and saw the principal walking straight towards him.

Upon seeing Liu Yan's actions, the principal's expression turned even angrier.

"Damn it, Principal, listen to me." Zhao Chuang was only halfway through his sentence when the principal silenced him with a look.

"Are you planning to kill him here? This isn't District Three, where death is just a matter of life and death!"

With the principal's reminder, Liu Yan finally came to his senses and quickly put his hand down.

After the threat was eliminated, Guo Li hid behind Lin Han and wiped the sweat from his crotch.

Putting aside the oppressive feeling in his Adam's apple just now, Guo Li was already terrified just by seeing the claw marks on Liu Yan's cheek up close.

Normally, Liu Yan wouldn't be provoked by such words, but when he heard the other party insult his mother...

Anger and the lingering effects of it all led Liu Yan to make such an impulsive decision.

The principal's anger subsided somewhat after Liu Yan released Guo Li.

The principal was so tired of hearing Teacher Qi talk about Liu Yan's performance that he was practically sick of it.

If such a genius were to accidentally kill someone because of a few insignificant students, it would be a great pity not only for the school but also for the genius himself.

"For this incident, each of you will receive a major demerit!"

"Furthermore, since you want to resolve this through a betting contest, then make it public to the entire school."

"Regardless of what happened back then, let's let our strength speak for itself. After this, no one is allowed to mention this matter again."

After speaking, the principal looked at Liu Yan and Lin Han respectively.

When Lin Han heard that the news would be made public to the whole school, a hint of smugness appeared on his face, while Liu Yan looked completely indifferent.

Seeing that neither of them had any objections, the principal addressed the students standing nearby:

"Go to the school broadcasting station and announce that all teachers and students should assemble in the conference hall."

The student nodded vigorously and ran towards the broadcasting room with a heavy sense of responsibility on his face.

After the student left, the principal turned to look at Liu Yan and said coldly:

"If you lose, you won't be going to the elite sniper competition anymore. Your past record will be settled together with this one."

After saying that, the principal gestured for the two of them to enter the third section.

Lin Han snorted coldly, then led Guo Li and another teammate behind him, turning around and entering the mist behind the door.

Liu Yan patted Zhao Chuang, who was sulking beside him.

"gone."

After the group entered the fog one after another, the students nearby also headed to the school's conference hall.

Meanwhile, Liu Yan's classmates rushed to the front, eager to grab a good spot in the front row.

...

Third Zone – Trading Zone.

"Why aren't they here yet? They're already past the appointed time."

Fudge had already recycled the excess equipment and was now waiting for everyone at the entrance with nothing to do.

Before long, five figures emerged from the entrance.

"Why are you so slow?" Fudge complained when he saw the two people behind him.

Hearing the sound, Lin Han glanced at Fuji, then turned and asked:

"This is the teammate you went through so much trouble to find? They don't look very good."

Indeed, with his handsome face, middle-part hairstyle, and overalls, Fudge doesn't look like one of the most powerful people in District 3 at all.

She does resemble an idol singer or something similar.

Liu Yan ignored Lin Han's sarcasm and walked straight up to Fuji.

"Let's go buy some equipment."

Ignored, Lin Han spat angrily and followed behind Liu Yan.

Since the deposit match requires players to bring equipment of equal value, both players need to be present when purchasing the equipment.

At that moment, two military drones that had not yet gone into stealth mode flew up behind Liu Yan and Lin Han respectively.

Since there are not many students entering the third zone to begin with, even fewer choose to do so publicly.

As a result, only two military drones were allocated to the school for use by teachers to assist in teaching.

However, when Lin Han saw the military drone behind Liu Yan, a sinister smile appeared on his lips.

Quickly, the two teams began distributing their equipment.

Lin Han's team, all members have four sets of equipment, level 4 bullets.

The firearms were modified based on the team's total value, and the final value was exactly 300 million.

The newly joined team member was equipped with an unmodified AKM.

The money saved from the modifications was used to buy Lin Han an additional semi-modified M700 sniper rifle.

Such adjustments are permitted under the deposit tournament system, which only limits the total value of teams, not how it is distributed.

After all, the skill levels of the players in each team are not equal.

As for Liu Yan's equipment, no one had ever heard of it before.

"Brother Yan, are you sure you want to do this? If you do, won't you be facing three opponents at once?"

Zhao Chuang, standing to the side, looked worried.

Compared to Lin Han's steady build, Liu Yan was incredibly arrogant.

The promise that Fuji and Zhao Chuang would make up the numbers was, in a true sense, just to make up the numbers.

With an expenditure of 300 million, Liu Yan wore 5 headscarves and 5 armor pieces, plus two armor repairs.
