The BCIA staff have been struggling with this problem for a long time.

(A variant of C·I·A, where "pretty" equals "beautiful," you get it? Let the author just add some defensive armor!)

It has been confirmed that Yan's network technology has developed so rapidly that even they cannot achieve this level of sophistication.

With this level of skill, you can't even lock down an IP address?

What is this if not a prevarication?

Yan Kingdom officials: "We don't know either. We've been researching it for a long time, but we still haven't figured it out!"

"I was hoping that once you guys figured it out, I could get some information from you."

"What? You haven't figured it out either? You have no clue? Oh no, oh no, who's forcing Yan Kingdom to close its borders?!"

America: ...Is this the Ministry of Foreign Affairs? Or perhaps the Strategic Deception Bureau?

This is utter nonsense.

There's no time to waste with Yan Guo right now, so all I can do is angrily threaten them, telling them to quickly resolve the issue with the livestream room, as leaking military secrets would mean the US reserves the right to pursue legal action.

Yan Guo was speechless. If you're so capable, then find it first!

Do you really think they'll fall for threats?

I knew before, but there was nothing I could do. Bitter fruit is still fruit, and I had to swallow it.

Let's see if Yan Kingdom will still pay attention to you now.

After hanging up the phone, the message was relayed to Liu Yun, indicating that the United States already knew, but it was fine; as long as it was known, there was no need to worry about it.

Little did they know, the United States had relayed the footage to the Chinese government, while the spies were still at home waiting for their hefty bonus.

The money hadn't even arrived in my account yet, but Uncle Hat came to check the water meter first.

They caught them all with flying colors. This round of targeted arrests has cleared out some of the American spies, which is really gratifying.

Although it's impossible to catch all spies, and they might just expand their network as long as the benefits are enough, catching a few today and a few tomorrow will eventually reduce their numbers.

If the cost is too high, you'll always have to weigh the pros and cons.

They should also pay more in benefits.

With insufficient budget, the ability to bribe two people that was previously possible can now only be used to bribe one, which is a good thing for Yan Kingdom.

The US questioned too hastily, never expecting to expose its weakness.

Is the locking skill of the Yan Kingdom also Schrödinger's cat?

No, that's directional.

It can be locked when needed, but when not needed, the technology isn't up to par, haha...

Behind the scenes, numerous clashes have occurred between nations, and the commanding marshal's actions during the exercise were all the more legitimate.

After hanging up the phone, the American command felt something was wrong, but couldn't quite put their finger on it, so they focused on cleaning up the mess left by the war.

If an exercise turns out like this, there will definitely be a lot of things to do afterward.

Liu Yun smiled as Aqi relayed the communication back to her: "They're all talented!"

"The head of the exercise command center did not clearly inform them of the subsequent losses. It is likely that their command headquarters in China had no idea that so many fighter jets had been destroyed."

"With the live broadcast shut down and the signal blocked, the information from the domestic command center fell behind."

"Therefore, while the top leader's request for retaliation was agreed to, the extent of the retaliation was not specified, nor were the results or scope defined."

"There's a lot of room for maneuver here. Let Tenglong pass this information on to the elders. They'll definitely have a way to make this exercise, which is turning into a real battle, even more intense and exciting."

Ah Qi observed a moment of silence for America, then immediately went to find his friends to gossip.

The reason the United States didn't think of it for the time being is that they were in a dire situation and too busy to spare any attention for it.

The commander-in-chief was trying to conceal the truth; the matter was urgent.

As an outsider with a clearer perspective, and having witnessed the entire process, Liu Yun was able to see the consequences of incomplete information.

When the top leader is too eager to make a name for himself and wants to cover up his mistakes, he will inevitably resort to harsh measures.

The United States will certainly not admit its mistakes; it will only shift the blame to others, which will only lead to more trouble.

At the exercise site, the participating countries were still frantically contacting their superiors, hoping that their national leaders could step in and quickly explain the situation to the United States to prevent a war.

We hope the exercise can end as soon as possible.

As for public opinion and face, they don't care anymore. The thought of going to war with the United States makes their legs go weak.

Just as the heated exchanges between the countries were still yielding no results, many people noticed that the weapon ports on the US aircraft carrier were being opened.

Many people were terrified, but there was nowhere to escape.

The complaints and mockery in the live stream suddenly disappeared, and the chat was completely clean because the camera had locked onto the American fleet.

The direction of the cannon's muzzle was perfectly clear.

The screen even displayed virtual effects, directly marking the missile's trajectory.

There's more than one.

After all, there are so many weapon ports; it seems like they all need to be fired!

All the viewers could see where these weapons would hit, and they locked onto many targets.

Many people in front of the camera had their eyes wide open like saucers, so they didn't have time to scroll through the comments.

After a long pause, someone tentatively asked, "Really? Does the US do things like this?"

"Yeah, those munitions that just bombed the sea prove they were live ammunition. If they had hit... oh dear..."

"Hilarious, America actually managed to treat all its targets equally."

"This attack is probably the most unreserved strike the aircraft carrier has ever made since it entered service!"

"Wow, Guo Yong is really not afraid of being surrounded and attacked. He actually took care of all his opponents?"

"Haha, this is fun and exciting! Even Japan is within range, hehe... Awesome, awesome..."

"Could it be that the US thought their fighter jets turning into fireworks was done by an ally, but since they didn't know who did it, they launched an indiscriminate attack?"

"Huh, aren't they allies? Who are you targeting?"

Amidst gasps of disbelief, all the weapons fired.

The trajectory marked on the screen was perfectly accurate, flying precisely towards the fleets of the various nations.

Meanwhile, on the sea, the air raid sirens of the fleets of various countries were blaring frantically, their sounds echoing across the sky and being broadcast live to many corners of Yan, shocking countless people.

The US must have had a lot of confidence to launch this attack!

Shocked, but also envious.

At least Yan Kingdom may not be as weak as everyone sees, but it rarely dares to strike so hard.

This confidence comes from the strength of the nation.

It's not true that a powerful nation can just talk the talk and actually walk the walk.

The command centers of the various nations' fleets could sense which of their ships were being locked on, and panicked, their first instinct being to flee.

But where can one escape to on the sea?

"Quickly, activate defense, activate interception..."

A series of commands were transmitted, and all means were activated to their maximum potential.

However... there are differences in the weapons and equipment themselves.

Some can be intercepted, some cannot.

A series of loud explosions echoed across the sea and soared into the sky, seemingly obscuring a corner of the heavens.

Fire and smoke filled the sky, blurring the live stream feed.
