Otherwise, sharing memories would be like me bumping into myself.
Now that I'm back in my own world, this feeling feels somewhat unfamiliar.
"Is this what it feels like to be 'alive'?"
"The needle is good..."
While marveling at the aroma, Xia Yan followed the scent into the living room, where he saw Hashimoto Eimi placing the last plate on the table.
The television was turned down to low volume, and the morning news was playing.
At first glance, Xia Yan felt a sense of everyday life about it.
It's like a newlywed wife thoughtfully preparing everything for her husband in the morning and then watching him leave for work.
However, this feeling only lingered in his mind for a moment before he forgot about it.
After all, what respectable young wife would wander around the living room naked in an apron first thing in the morning?
"Oh my, Lord Natsuhiko! You're awake already! Breakfast is ready."
Seeing Xia Yan come out, Hashimoto Eiyuki said in high spirits.
You wouldn't guess from how she was crying and begging for mercy last night.
"Breakfast... I'll just leave it there for now."
"Huh? Is it not to your liking? I specially learned Chinese dishes online."
After hearing Xia Yan's words, Hashimoto Eimi looked somewhat disappointed.
But soon, she forgot all about feeling disappointed.
Because Xia Yan had already pressed her onto the table in a position where she was 'not fully recovered'.
"No, I just feel that I should eat you first."
……
After finishing their morning exercise, Xia Yan and Hashimoto Eimi, who looked quite full, ate their cold breakfast while watching the news on TV, which was constantly being broadcast on a loop.
"...A famous TV Tokyo presenter checked into the U.S. Embassy at 6:00 AM this morning..."
"These idiots, can't they even put on an act?"
Seeing the news appear more than ten times in the past hour, Xia Yan couldn't help but frown and complain.
"Lord Xia Yan, they probably want you to clash with the Americans, and then get the US military stationed in Japan involved."
"Should we find a way to assassinate him?"
"Issue Eimi's voice was a little hoarse," she said.
I ate the breakfast I made step by step following the tutorial, rather haphazardly.
They don't seem very hungry.
"No! Let's just raze the embassy to the ground. I didn't intend to leave such a thing on my future territory anyway."
Xia Yan said this with great confidence.
Clearly, after experiencing the war against the Self-Defense Forces, he has a clear understanding of his own capabilities.
They do not believe that the so-called US military can do anything to them.
Although he didn't know where the enemy's confidence came from, Xia Yan could already guess what they were thinking.
They simply believe they can defeat the Self-Defense Forces because the Self-Defense Forces are too weak. They think that if it were the US military, they would be able to withstand the pressure and successfully contain them with their superior combat power.
It is estimated that they believed that with the equipment and combat skills of the US military, they could eliminate IBM faster than they could be summoned.
This allows them to expose their weaknesses and find an opportunity to attack their main body.
but!
It should be noted that when he fought against the Self-Defense Forces, he won head-on without using any tactics or anything like that.
Putting everything else aside, the fact that a black phantom can become invisible is something no army can handle.
Others can see the black phantoms he releases because he unrestrainedly unleashes his killing intent on everyone, but that doesn't mean Xia Yan can't control his killing intent towards others.
Even in the worst-case scenario, if we really can't beat him, we can still run away.
Although he hasn't tried it yet, he is actually capable of using "Phantom Appearance" to teleport.
If you piss him off, he'll teleport right to Amei's place and let the world's police experience some pain.
It's important to know that among all the abilities Natsuhiko JoJo acquired, the one with the strongest destructive power to the environment is not "Magician Red," which can instantly melt steel.
Rather, it was the Stand ability of that fat Arab man who didn't even have a name—
--"sun"!
If he wanted to, he could make any country understand just how great Hou Yi's actions were.
"As expected of Lord Xia Yan! You are the strongest!"
Upon hearing Xia Yan's answer, Hashimoto Eimi's eyes sparkled with infatuation.
If before Xia Yan defeated the Self-Defense Forces, she only regarded Xia Yan as a pillar of support, as a dependence she could not leave behind.
After Xia Yan's victory, she completely regarded him as a god-like being.
But what she said made Xia Yan feel a slight chill in his waist.
There was a vague feeling of phantom pain.
Could this woman be the mole?
Why do you always plant your own flag?
Chapter 169 Xia Yan Approaches the US Embassy
After having a long-awaited breakfast, Xia Yan began his task for the day once again.
Upon arriving at the agreed location, the group of people that Xia Yan had subdued the day before were already waiting there.
It's not because they are particularly loyal.
They're all a bunch of people forced to follow Xia Yan out of pure fear of death. What kind of loyalty do they have?
It's just that Xia Yan said yesterday when he left that if he didn't come, he would be included in the cleaning category again.
As one of the seven out of ten survivors, they naturally wouldn't risk their lives to help others increase their chances of survival.
They dared not gamble that they had the luck to be among the lucky three out of ten.
After a day of hard work yesterday, Xia Yan had already sifted through a quarter of the city, but the news that was broadcast continuously this morning gave him a new target.
Therefore, instead of following the original planned route, he replanned his route with the embassy as his destination.
Perhaps due to the popularity he had accumulated during yesterday's live stream, Xia Yan's simultaneous online viewership exceeded 100 million as soon as he started broadcasting, and it was increasing rapidly every moment.
The screen was filled with all sorts of fancy flattery, and for a moment Xia Yan even wanted to start a live-streaming sales event.
what is this?
Reborn as a news anchor in an island nation?
Should I ask you to follow me?
If I had a live streaming tipping system right now, I'd probably be invincible in no time.
Unfortunately, Xia Yan's system still doesn't have many functions; his cheat is still himself, so he still has to work hard.
Not bad though.
At least he is now able to try to conquer the country on his own.
While pondering those miscellaneous matters, Xia Yan was not idle either.
After two days of fermentation, it's safe to say that at least throughout the entire island nation, there's no one who doesn't know him.
Let him have a good time experiencing the thrill of being bowed down and subdued by others.
However, as a man of principle, Xia Yan would not violate the rules he had set just because the other party surrendered readily; he would still kill them if necessary.
After all, the country's population is a bit too crowded; reducing it by three-tenths would be just right.
The procession was long and impressive, reminiscent of a temple fair during Chinese New Year.
For some reason, the people following him seemed rather lifeless and lacked energy.
Just as Xia Yan was pondering whether to come up with a slogan similar to "Starry Sky Immortal," implying boundless magical power, to get them to join in the fun, he discovered that a large area ahead was completely deserted.
It was as if they had received some kind of notice and were evacuated in advance.
Instead, a well-equipped, modern mechanized force was deployed.
The only drawback is that the troops are somewhat mixed in terms of race.
White people, yellow people, and farm tools all stood together, which didn't look very harmonious.
To be fair, in terms of sheer force of presence, they are indeed far superior to the Japanese Self-Defense Forces that were previously defeated by Xia Yan.
The equipment is also significantly a level above.
The battlefield setup was quite comprehensive, with drones, tanks, armored vehicles, trenches, and mines all in place. More than a dozen snipers were also positioned on various high points.
Unlike the previous Self-Defense Forces' simple and unpretentious approach, which involved no special operations and was simply a F2A attack.
This group of US troops stationed in Japan truly showed Natsuhiko what the art of war is.
Unfortunately, their efforts were completely wasted.
Under Xia Yan's all-seeing gaze, covering a radius of twenty kilometers without any blind spots, everything was exposed without a doubt.
"Hmm, so that's the plan..."
Watching the American troops, whose deployment was quite thorough yet still bustling about like tightly meshed gears, Xia Yan stroked his chin, trying to fathom their intentions.
For any strategy game, preventing your opponent from deciphering your intentions and plans is a crucial condition.
Clearly, the American troops on the other side had no idea that Xia Yan had secretly activated a full-map cheat.
Xia Yan was actually somewhat surprised that the American troops had made preparations in advance.
