Anime Crossover: My Cheat Code is Myself

He hasn't damaged the US embassy yet, so the other side shouldn't have any reason to interfere in his internal affairs.

However, this behavior is also quite reasonable.

After all, the other side initially sent that host to the US embassy simply to give the US military a reason to intervene.

It wasn't that they really wanted Xia Yan to back out of the embassy.

After Xia Yan made it clear that he wanted to flatten the US embassy and began to take concrete actions, the US military had a pretext to act.

We can't wait until Xia Yan does something before we start making arrangements.

The battlefield was just ahead, and Xia Yan had no intention of using the group behind him as a shield.

"I'm going to buy some oranges. You all stay here and don't move."

Looking at his followers who stood obediently in place after hearing those words, their eyes filled with only numbness and fear, Xia Yan felt a sense of boredom.

Of course, if anyone dares to take advantage of him by responding to his jokes, he'll definitely smash their head in.

After arranging the atmosphere team, leaving one Black Ghost to guard the area, Xia Yan barged straight into the position set up by the US military.

It wasn't that Xia Yan wanted to play some kind of one-against-a-thousand trick.

He was merely using himself as bait to attract the attention of the American troops, thereby creating a more convenient situation for him to act.

Like a dark cloud, IBM surged from his body, coalescing into dozens of winged humanoid monsters that surrounded him like guards.

At the same time, more black phantoms scattered in stealth form, flying towards the American troops.

The confrontation has already begun at this moment.

……

"Report! Ajin Natsuhiko has entered the sniping position! Should we begin firing?"

Ten kilometers away from Xia Yan, in a specially made large armored vehicle, the soldier responsible for maintaining communications was transmitting intelligence to the commander.

After yesterday's battle, they have realized how dangerous Xia Yan is.

Therefore, for safety reasons, the command post was set up inside an armored vehicle to prevent Xia Yan from sending Black Phantom to carry out a decapitation assassination.

If necessary, it can be moved by car.

It's a world of difference compared to the Self-Defense Forces' foolish behavior of hiding their commanders in the ranks in an attempt to conceal their presence.

"Free firing permitted!" Bu.

Chapter 170 The US military believed it had a significant advantage.

"Snipers, fire freely and force him into the minefield!"

The middle-aged commander, with his slightly graying hair, issued orders with great enthusiasm.

But the response he received was beyond his expectations.

"Report! Contact has been lost at the A-1 sniper position!"

"The B-3 sniper position has also lost contact!"

"A-5 sniper position lost contact!"

An eerie silence fell over the small command center...

In just ten seconds, all eighteen sniper positions lost contact.

Even the ace snipers who had carried out numerous sniping missions didn't leave behind a single useful piece of information before losing contact.

It was as if they had vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace.

Thinking of this, the commander couldn't help but gasp.

It's important to understand that these elite snipers didn't operate alone during this mission.

Just in case, he set up sniping positions, each operated by a four-person squad.

One sniper, one spotter, one assistant, and one additional guard specifically responsible for monitoring the surrounding environment.

But even under these circumstances, not a single abnormality was detected.

Even the commander, who always believed only in firepower and not in gods or Buddhas, couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"Are the drones used to capture the footage still usable?!"

"Yes! The drones were not interfered with, and the footage can be played from the front. It seems that the other side has not noticed the existence of these drones."

As the communications technician answered, he pulled up the drone's playback footage and projected it onto the large screen.

The sniper teams waiting at their positions were suddenly attacked by something unseen; all four of their heads exploded almost simultaneously, looking like crushed tomatoes.

Then an unseen hand, dipped in the blood on the ground, drew a squinty-eyed smiley face in the most conspicuous place.

It is terrifying yet also contains a touch of absurdity and comicality.

Clearly, the other side wasn't unaware of the drones; rather, they deliberately left them behind to transmit a signal.

I know all your arrangements!

"It's the IBM of the Demi-Jin!"

Although the scene was bloody, the commander who witnessed it calmed down and figured out the reason.

"Although Xia Yan's IBM has always presented its true identity, that doesn't mean it can't hide! Keep those guys in the 'Special Observation Group' on their guard!"

"Return all the teams that have been sent out. The enemy has some kind of reconnaissance method that we don't know about!"

"Abandon ambushes and assassinations, concentrate our manpower to maintain firepower superiority!"

The commander issued orders methodically, and the entire legion operated like a precision instrument.

The so-called special observation group was actually a group of demi-humans that were specially transported from the United States overnight.

This was to prevent Xia Yan from using tactics such as making IBM invisible and launching attacks directly from within the military.

There are only eight people in total.

But this already accounts for half of the anonymous Ajin population in the United States.

After all, if a demi-human doesn't die once, they won't even know their own identity, so capturing a demi-human largely depends on luck.

The fact that they took out half of their inventory at once, just to gamble on a guess, is enough to prove how much they value Xia Yan.

As it turns out, their concerns were valid.

"Report! Legion One has detected twenty stealth IBMs approaching! Elimination in progress!"

"The Second Legion has also detected IBMs, numbering seventeen, and engagement has begun!"

"The Third Legion has been attacked by IBM, numbering twenty-one! Thirteen casualties so far. We are concentrating our firepower on the attack!"

"Report……"

……

One battle report after another reached the commander's ears amidst the voices of the messengers.

Hearing that the special observation group's arrangements had indeed worked, and that although the legion still suffered some casualties, the losses were all within a controllable range, the commander smiled with satisfaction.

Although IBM is transparent, it is because the particles that make it up have 100% light transmittance, not because IBM can become invisible.

The bullet that hit IBM would get stuck inside its body.

These bullets floating in mid-air will reveal IBM's location.

The subhuman observers who could see IBM were each armed with firearms loaded with special bullets containing luminescent chemicals.

Hitting IBM would clearly reveal their location.

"Dispatch a swarm of drones to launch a saturation attack on Xia Yan's main body, regardless of losses. At the same time, mortars and machine gunners should provide fire support to prevent the regenerated IBM from flanking us again!"

"Have the legions eliminate those invisible IBMs as soon as possible, then tighten the encirclement and confine them to a certain area!"

"Subsequent snipers will all be equipped with specially made tranquilizer bullets, and cryogenic equipment will be prepared so that they can be frozen immediately once they are under control!"

"Hmph, this damned demi-human is so stupid. Without thinking, it walked right into our ambush, and now it's a sitting duck."

It was as if he could already see himself successfully capturing Xia Yan, bringing him back to the United States, and then getting a promotion and a raise.

The commander wore a smug smile.

"They just started to think they're something special after defeating the Self-Defense Forces."

"The difference in strength between our US military and those stupid yellow-skinned monkeys from that island nation is like heaven and earth!"

……

"Huh? The Black Phantom suffered heavy losses? They shouldn't be able to see my Black Phantom..."

Sensing the mass deaths of the Black Ghosts sent out to launch a sneak attack, Xia Yan tilted his head in confusion.

Unfortunately, the black phantom is not a shadow clone.

Once it's broken up, it disappears completely (1.4), and the memories aren't transmitted back intact.

However, upon seeing the ghosts who were still able to move and were carrying flashbangs, Xia Yan instantly understood what had happened.

"I see, so other demi-humans have gotten involved."

"Honestly, we should be on the same team, have we been tamed...?"

"Whatever, it doesn't matter anyway..."

Looking at the Hive drones, armed with machine guns and explosives, that surrounded him, Xia Yan shrugged with a relaxed expression.

IBM particles, as dense as black mud, filled this space.

The scattered black phantoms crawled out from behind him again, roaring wildly to the sky like a resurrected demon.

"I'll win in the end anyway!"

Boom boom boom——

The explosions continued in succession.
