Chapter 4 National Response
If the miracle in the ICU is an isolated case, and the frenzy in the copy is localized, then what happened at the Kunlun outpost at an altitude of 5,000 meters is even more moving.
This is the western gate of the Longxia Kingdom, where snow accumulates year-round and temperatures drop to minus forty degrees Celsius.
Two young sentries huddled in a sheltered spot, their eyebrows covered in frost. They were new recruits, on their first time at such a high-altitude outpost, and the combination of altitude sickness and extreme cold had made them somewhat disoriented.
"Squad leader... I'm cold..." the young recruit shivered, his lips turning blue. "I miss home, I want to eat my mom's dumplings."
The veteran sergeant rubbed his hands together, took off his coat and draped it over the new recruit, even though he himself was freezing and his bones ached.
"Hang in there, the replacement guard will be here soon. Remember the oath you took when you enlisted. We stand here, with the lights of thousands of homes behind us."
Although that's what they said, the old sergeant's leg was aching terribly from a long-standing injury. It was a lingering problem from the last time they fought off a snow monster swarm, and in this kind of weather it felt like a drill was drilling into his bones.
Sudden.
The wind stopped.
The biting wind, which could freeze a person to the bone, suddenly became gentle.
A warm current appeared out of nowhere in their bodies. The feeling was not like warming themselves by a fire, but more like coming home from school in winter as a child and burying themselves in a thick quilt that had just been dried in the sun, or like drinking a bowl of steaming ginger soup, the warmth burning from their throats to their stomachs and then spreading to every part of their body.
The recruit looked up in surprise, his previously bluish-purple lips quickly regaining their color. He touched his face: "Squad leader... I'm not cold anymore? How come it suddenly got warm here?"
The old squad leader was even more shocked. He tried to move his legs, and the excruciating pain that had tormented him for years had vanished without a trace, replaced by a powerful sense of lightness.
He subconsciously stood up and looked towards the border.
Atop the snow-capped mountains stretching for thousands of miles, a vast expanse of purple mist stretches for 30,000 miles, resembling a giant purple dragon coiled above the national gate, overlooking this land.
The old sergeant's eyes reddened, and he snapped to attention and gave a military salute.
"An auspicious omen...this is an auspicious sign for the nation's destiny!"
His voice choked with emotion as he shouted to the naive young man beside him, "Attention! Salute! The nation is watching us! This heating is provided by our motherland!"
……
This night was destined to be a miraculous night that kept the entire Dragon Xia Kingdom awake all night.
Zhongnanhai, a top-secret conference room.
The long conference table was filled with people: generals in military uniforms, elderly men in Zhongshan suits, and scholars with thick-rimmed glasses. All eyes were fixed on the map of Longxia Kingdom covered in purple on the large screen.
The elderly man sitting at the head of the table had graying temples, but his eyes were sharp.
"Has the situation been verified?" The old man, codenamed "Long Yi," spoke in a low but authoritative voice.
"Report." A middle-aged man stood up. He was the director of the National Supernatural Abilities Security Bureau. "Verification complete. Starting at 19:35 PM tonight, an unknown high-purity energy reaction has been detected simultaneously throughout our country, including territorial waters, airspace, and all disputed border areas."
"Nature?" Long Yi asked.
"Absolutely beneficial." The director took a deep breath, seemingly still processing the fact. "This energy is extremely gentle and has no side effects on the human body. Preliminary statistics show that in the past half hour, the vital signs of critically ill patients in major hospitals across the country have recovered by an average of 400%, and thousands of near-death experiences have been successfully resuscitated. The old injuries and illnesses of military personnel have almost all healed. And... the mana and stamina of all professionals across the country are recovering at a rate that defies common sense."
"What about the weather bureau?"
"Natural disasters have been ruled out, and..." The director paused briefly, his tone becoming somewhat strange, "The coverage area of this energy is extremely... astute. It precisely matches our border, not an inch more, not an inch less. Even in a disputed area in the southwest, our outposts were covered, but enemy outposts just a few hundred meters away didn't get a single thing."
A slight commotion arose in the conference room.
It's like God drew a circle on a map with a ruler and said: I'll protect the people inside this circle; those outside, get lost!
"And another thing." The director pulled up a chart. "According to feedback from the geomantic monitoring towers across the country, this energy seems to have awakened some dormant geomantic will. The activity level of the dragon veins in the capital has tripled, and the spiritual energy of the Yellow River and Yangtze River water veins is also surging. This is not just about restoring health and mana; it's about... recharging our nation's fortune."
"top up……"
An old general pondered the word, then suddenly grinned: "What a wonderful word! This is an auspicious omen! Heaven blesses Longxia!"
Long tapped the table lightly with his finger and pondered for a moment.
"check."
A single word carries immense weight.
"This is an auspicious sign, but also a variable. Such a huge commotion cannot be concealed. Whether it's some reclusive master or some ancient artifact that has appeared, we must take the initiative."
Long Yi raised his head, his gaze sweeping over everyone present: "But remember, if it's deliberate, then it's an ally. And a strategic one at that! When you investigate, be discreet, don't alarm them, and certainly don't put on any intimidating act. We must demonstrate the sincerity and magnanimity of our nation."
"clear!"
……
Old town area, tenement buildings.
Su Yun sat on the sofa, watching the news flash that was being broadcast urgently on TV.
"...According to the meteorological observatory, a rare atmospheric optical phenomenon will occur in most parts of my country tonight. Experts say this is a special type of ionospheric activity that is beneficial and harmless to the human body. The public is advised not to panic..."
The scene shifts to an excited face of a middle-aged woman doing square dancing: "Oh, reporter, let me tell you! I've had a herniated disc for over ten years! Tonight, while I was dancing, the pain suddenly stopped! I feel like I could dance all night long!"
Su Yun's lips twitched, and she silently picked up her water glass and took a sip.
"This commotion seems to be bigger than I expected..."
He rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache. He had only intended to test his talent discreetly, but he had inadvertently given the entire nation a boost.
Although he knew he couldn't hide his abilities for long, the fact that they were exposed so quickly still caught him off guard.
However, it's a good thing that the skill can mutate and become even stronger.
So he simply left the skill active, allowing the general public to enjoy the blessings.
(Of course, what he didn't know was that the government had already located him, but chose to remain inactive because of Long Yi's orders.)
Su Yun glanced at the system panel.
The effect of "Auspicious Purple Qi from the East" has lasted for almost half an hour. Apart from the initial 10 points of mana I wanted to consume, all subsequent consumption was compensated by the primordial energy of heaven and earth. I have to say, the system is amazing.
"But it's almost time."
Su Yun snapped his fingers.
"receive."
Without any warning, the purple clouds outside the window quietly faded away, and the viscous energy in the air began to slowly dissipate. Although the remaining energy was enough to sustain this "auspicious" effect for a while longer, the terrifying rate of mana regeneration eventually stopped.
Su Yun breathed a long sigh of relief, feeling a sense of lightness in her body.
"However, we must consider the possibility of defeat before we consider victory. With such a big commotion, the country will definitely spare no effort to trace the source, and I estimate they will find me very soon. And those rats hiding in the shadows will probably also be drawn by the scent."
If you only have one support skill, even a god-level support skill, you're likely to be treated like a "power bank" or a "mascot" and kept under house arrest.
To gain true respect and freedom in this world, compassion alone is not enough; one must also have ruthless methods.
Before you get approached, why not make this feast even grander?
Su Yun's gaze fell on an icon next to the skill tree and the Breeze Totem.
That was an F-rank skill that looked like a closed eye.
[Scout Guard (LV1)]
Quality: F (Common Product)
[Effect: Places a scout ward, providing vision of the surrounding area. Duration: 3 minutes.]
[Note: Besides preventing ganks (ambushes), it can also be used for spying... ahem, observing enemy movements.]
Now that all friendly units on the map are fully healed, let's do some cleaning at home while we're at it. It's disgusting to see news reports of heretical sects or foreign forces causing trouble every now and then.
Those rats and bedbugs hiding in dark corners, which usually require a lot of effort to find, can now be exposed while this auspicious energy is still going strong.
"system."
Su Yun called out in his mind.
"Designated skill: [Reconnaissance Ward]".
"The talent [Territory is Territory] has been confirmed."
"Area locked...the entire territory."
Su Yun pointed his finger into the air.
