Chapter 99: Early Season Update and the Invasion Begins
Chapter 99: Early Season Update and the Invasion Begins
Just as Zhao Yu was planning how to arrange the upcoming invasion of the operators and Gherros, a sudden notification made Zhao Yu's eyes narrow.
Because of the many changes that have occurred in Delta World recently, [Security Director] Demulan has reinforced the space base.
The new season will be updated early.
[The update for Operation Asara will begin after the garrison mission concludes. Please check back for details.]
"Update?" Zhao Yu began to investigate the update content.
Before coming to this world, he had seen many official Delta Force update previews, and he didn't know what the differences were between the updated Delta Force in this world and the Delta Force in the previews of his previous life.
Zhao Yu began to browse through the update summary provided by the system.
In this update, Hafk Group's Global Security Director, DeMullan, has chosen to reinforce the space base in response to the recent spate of unauthorized intrusions.
The terrain of the space base has been altered in some areas.
[A new boss, Hudson, has been added to the space base...]
The dam flooding mode has been disabled.
[A new mode, "Red Owl Hunt," has been added.]
……
Zhao Yu browsed through most of the content, but in fact, most of it didn't have much impact on him.
In the Crimson Owl Hunt mode, operators can play as Said, and the Crimson Owl squad they play will not be in the same battle as Said.
This is good news for the operators, since the Crimson Owl Squad is no match for Zhao Yu and his large number of super-powerful guards.
Said of the Red Owl Squad doesn't have godlike armor or health.
However, this change has little impact on Zhao Yu. The Crimson Owl Squad will reduce the appearance rate of Said in various war zones, but it cannot reduce his appearance rate, since he is also properly matched.
It's just that the matchmaking result might not be to the operative's liking.
Next, we'll discuss the changes that will affect him.
Because [Security Director] Demulan had reinforced the space base, Zhao Yu and his guards faced much stricter restrictions when entering the space base. Normally, in the space base's classified/top-secret combat zone, he could bring a guard team of up to 16 people, including adjutants and chief guards.
But now, because the space base has been fortified and its defenses are more stringent, the number of guards and adjutants has been reduced to six.
This has some impact on Zhao Yu, but not a significant one.
The only difference is that he can no longer declare war on the entire map directly like before. As long as his armor mechanism and health remain the same, even if he can only fight one-on-one in the space base, his dominance will still remain.
In contrast, there is the balance brought about by the season update.
He acquired a new melee weapon called "The Executioner," and since he was the leader himself, his Executioner was already upgraded to level 4.
At the same time, he will also receive two new adjutants for free: Hakim Ziani and Karim Ben Ali. Both are Red Owl Guards and are operator-type adjutants. Hakim, like Flame Dragon, is a rocket soldier-type adjutant, while Karim is a flamethrower-type adjutant.
"Not bad, now we have two wire-controlled missile adjutants." Zhao Yu slowly stood up and, in the guise of Saeed, walked out of the East Building manager's office.
At this moment, the east wing of the administrative building in the administrative district was already packed with Asara's guards. Outside the manager's office in the east wing, Zhao Yu's guards had assembled, along with two adjutants stationed in the Zero Dam area.
They also came to Zhao Yu's side.
Although the vast majority of Asara Guard soldiers were masked, Zhao Yu still felt a chilling sense of oppression in the air. The impending invasion by Geheros weighed heavily on the hearts of all the Asara Guard soldiers gathered at the dam, like dark clouds.
"Molten Prison, I have an important task for you!" Zhao Yu looked at the flamethrower adjutant, Molten Prison, and then spoke.
"Yes, sir, please give your orders!" Rongyu looked at Commander Said in front of him and saluted respectfully.
"The administration building is the core of the entire dam. In terms of troop strength, we are at a significant disadvantage. A direct confrontation with Hafk would be detrimental to us." Zhao Yu first glanced at the Molten Hell, laying the groundwork, before continuing:
"So, I tightened my defenses and concentrated all my forces inside the administration building. However, upon closer inspection, I realized my deployment has a fatal flaw," Zhao Yu continued. "Underground."
He repeatedly used underground passages to enter the administration building to confront the operators, but it's hard to guarantee that no operator might enter the administration building from underground to disrupt his plans.
After all, launching a home-based matchmaking campaign during Gherros' invasion was a risky move. While it would allow GTI operators to fight against Gherros and Hafk, it would undoubtedly also bring trouble, because those GTI operators were much more difficult to deal with than Hafk soldiers other than Gherros's personal guard.
Even the Blue Eagle helicopter is nothing more than a slightly troublesome ant in the eyes of GTI's elite operators.

"Sir, you're right. What should we do?" Rongyu looked at Zhao Yu and asked anxiously.
"What should we do? It's simple. You take the flamethrower soldiers to guard the underground area, mainly the entrance to the underground passage. Concentrate your firepower, do you understand what I mean?" Zhao Yu looked at the Molten Hell in front of him and said.
"Understood, sir. You and the other brothers are guarding the first and second floors of the administration building. I need to guard the entrance to the underground passage so they can't interfere with you, sir," Rongyu said, looking at Zhao Yu.
"Smart." Zhao Yu nodded.
Flamethrower soldiers deal high damage and are among the most annoying special units in Asara's Guard and Hafk's faction.
Zhao Yu had four flamethrower soldiers under his command, plus his flamethrower adjutant, Molten Prison, making a total of five.
Zhao Yu felt that although there was a big gap between the Asara Guard soldiers and the GTI operators, it should still be fine to have five flamethrower soldiers do nothing but keep their flamethrowers ready to fire at any time and just guard a small opening.
"Don't worry, sir, as long as we're here, we'll hold the position!" Rongyu patted his chest and looked at Zhao Yu.
"Gentlemen, Asara is great, but we have nowhere to retreat."
If Dam Zero falls into Hafk's hands, it will not only allow Hafk to expand his sphere of influence and restart the machines beneath the dam, enabling him to seize Asara's resources in a more ruthless manner, but it will also give Hafk a Damocles' sword hanging over the entire Asara region.
The waters of the Ummukh River will become Hafk's best weapon to suppress Asara and fight against the GTI. I have no doubt that Hafk and his gang of heartless lunatics are capable of doing such a thing.
"Go, this is the last order I give as your commander. If I fall on the battlefield, do not falter. Fight to the last moment against these self-proclaimed civilized invaders for Asara."
"Tomorrow, when the sun rises, only one of me and Geheros will be alive on this land."
"Asara Guard, prepare for battle!"
"loyalty!"
