<Warning: A critical situation has occurred that Icarus Operator cannot resolve alone. Sending a support request to all surrounding operators.>

- [Let’s lower the guns. Shall we talk for a bit?]
    
    "How about I trigger the detonator on that civilian’s device, annihilate both of you, and calmly walk away from here?"
    
- [Haha, what a joke. If that were possible, I would have done it long ago. Isn’t Icarus Operator someone who acts faster than words?]
    
    Silence.

    Morrison’s eyes narrowed slightly, and three afterimages appeared in his perfectly calm gaze.

    He was wearing a vest packed with a type of stick-shaped explosive device never before seen by any of them. Icarus Gear confirmed that it was an unknown new type of explosive.

    Its power was unmeasurable. However, considering the significantly advanced materials science and chemistry, it was highly likely that the dozens of kilograms of explosives wrapped around his body would produce a blast comparable to that of an aerial bomb.

    Morrison did not once take his aim off Hunter.

    The civilian woman was in a state of panic, so much so that she was urinating herself, unable to utter anything except that she did not want to die. It was an extremely difficult situation.
