Van Dyke was blown away by the broadcast. Erik's taunt kept replaying in his mind, the image of Volkov's head so clear. Everyone was talking about the broadcast in the room. The rebels' morale rose dramatically.
Van Dyke quickly focused on the task at hand, checking his phone for the message Erik had previously sent him.
The message said that Richard was heading to the tunnel, and Van Dyke had already dispatched a trusted team to ensure his safe passage, but it said nothing about Volkov.
Erik went far beyond just saving Richard. He killed Volkov, and that was essentially a turning point in the overall situation. The broadcast also did a lot.
