Yan Fei had a huge battle with the South Korean navy last night, causing enormous losses to them. However, due to political considerations, the South Koreans dared not publicize the incident and acted as if it never happened. On the South Korean Internet, there wasn't the slightest hint of anything unusual. Not only that, but they were actively covering up the aberrations that had occurred last night in Xingzhou County, attributing them to a joint military exercise between South Korea and the US. This allowed Yan Fei, the instigator, to escape the consequences scot-free.
Yet Yan Fei didn't take the South Korean reaction too seriously; he was more focused on watching TV news, hoping to obtain information about the third Upgrade Essential Item from the broadcast. But after watching a whole day's worth of news, he hadn't found any useful intelligence, which left Yan Fei incredibly disheartened; his hope for a rapid drone upgrade seemed unlikely to be fulfilled smoothly.
