If I made you a special forces soldier, would you become a terrestrial god?

The capital city, the highest command headquarters of the Central Military Commission, was filled with a solemn atmosphere.

Outside the window, the night was deep and impenetrable, with sparse starlight. Inside the conference room, however, the lights were bright, the cold, pale glow making everyone's faces appear even more serene. All the core members of the Central Military Commission, regardless of rank, were present. The leader sat upright in the main seat, his weathered face now displaying a mixture of deep thought and a barely perceptible sense of satisfaction.

The huge electronic screen in front of him was updating in real time with the latest intelligence from the disaster area in Sichuan Province. It showed high-definition panoramic images captured by drones from Miao Zhiyuan's troops, as well as live footage of the Kunlun Division's rescue efforts, all so clear it was breathtaking.

"Report!" A reporter's voice trembled, not from fear, but from barely suppressed excitement. He spoke rapidly, almost in rapid succession. The documents in his hands seemed to weigh a ton. "In less than twenty-four hours, the main transportation routes in the core earthquake zone have been initially cleared. Temporary camps are taking shape, having already accommodated tens of thousands of affected people. Field medical stations have treated hundreds of seriously wounded soldiers; all critically injured patients are in stable condition, and there have been no fatalities!"

Inside the conference room, a collective gasp filled the air, a sound far more profound than the darkness outside the window.

"We have successfully rescued more than 2,000 survivors so far. In the county town in the core earthquake zone, the team led by Commander Su personally rescued more than 700 people, including dozens of children trapped under the ruins of an elementary school building. There were no casualties!" The reporter's voice grew louder and louder, as if to imprint these astonishing numbers on everyone's mind.

"Communications restored! Power system repairs are underway, and power is expected to be restored to some areas within 48 hours!"

Each set of data exploded like a thunderclap in the conference room. This wasn't a victory report from the battlefield, yet it was more shocking and impactful than any battle report.

"Twenty-four hours... more than two thousand people rescued, with not a single seriously wounded dying?" An elderly general with white hair and beard gripped the documents in front of him tightly. His breath was ragged, and every word was filled with disbelief. "This... this is simply a miracle! Let alone a million-strong army, even if you gathered all the professional rescue forces in the country, you couldn't have done this!"

Another general leaned back in his chair, his gaze complex. They weren't unaware of the Kunlun Division's strength. The exercise in the Xishan conference room had shown them the unit's extraordinary capabilities. But that was, after all, an exercise, a demonstration within a controlled environment. What they were witnessing now, however, was a real natural disaster, a battle between steel and concrete and flesh and blood. The Kunlun Division's power had far exceeded their wildest imaginations.

The big boss's gaze was fixed on the center of the screen. Su Chen's team moved through the ruins, their agile figures carrying a power beyond human limits with every wave of their hands and every leap. He had witnessed Su Chen flatten a mountain of mudslides with a single palm strike and personally pull a terrified child from beneath layers of rubble. He knew better than anyone what those roads cleared by the Kunlun soldiers with their bare hands, those boulders moved by their bare hands, and those lives snatched from the jaws of death with elixirs—each one carried a heavy weight and signified something profound.

"Section Chief Kunlun has rendered unparalleled service to the nation and its people!" The leader's voice was deep, yet carried an undeniable power, echoing clearly in the conference room. "This achievement is worthy of being recorded in history and remembered for generations to come!"

"I propose that the Kunlun Division be awarded the highest collective honor! Division Commander Su Chen shall be awarded a Special Merit! All officers and soldiers who participated in the battle shall be awarded a First-Class Merit!" A member of the Military Commission stood up, his face flushed with excitement, and was the first to express his opinion.

"agree!"

"I second that!"

A chorus of agreement rose and fell; not a single person objected. The formidable strength displayed by the Kunlun Division, and their unwavering determination to serve the people in the face of natural disasters, transcended all rewards. It wasn't about merit; it was a heartfelt mission, a responsibility etched into their very bones.

However, the big boss didn't make a decision immediately. His fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, the sound particularly clear in the silent conference room, like some kind of premonition, knocking on everyone's heart.

"We will not be stingy with rewards; they deserve them." The leader's voice shifted, becoming as deep as the night sky outside the window, instantly pulling everyone's attention back from the joy of victory. "More importantly, we must clearly understand what the appearance of Master Kunlun means."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over every face with a penetrating intensity.

"They are no longer a military force in the conventional sense. They have surpassed the limits of current technology, and transcended the physical abilities and cognition of ordinary people. In a sense, they represent a new kind of power, an extraordinary existence."

"This earthquake relief effort was less of a rescue operation and more of the Kunlun Division's first real-world demonstration of their capabilities to the world. It was an unreserved display, carrying the dual impact of strength and humanity."

In the conference room, everyone held their breath. They understood the profound meaning behind the boss's words.

"The extraordinary power of the Dragon Kingdom has been forced to be exposed to the world." Every word the leader spoke resonated like thunder in everyone's hearts, deafeningly loud. "How will the United States, and other countries with ill intentions towards us, view us? How will they deal with us? They won't just see our rescue efforts; they will only see our power, and the threats hidden behind that power."

"We once thought that the Kunlun Division was our trump card to deter villains and safeguard national security." There was a deep concern in the boss's tone. "But now, this trump card has been revealed ahead of schedule in a way we never expected."

He cast his gaze out the window at the dark night sky, as if he could see countless eyes beyond the borders, greedily and warily watching this land.

"What will be the consequences? Will it be a deterrent, or will it provoke even more frantic probing and retaliation? A global competition of extraordinary achievements may already be inevitable."

A deep silence fell over the conference room. The power of the Kunlun Division was undoubtedly a double-edged sword. It could protect the Dragon Kingdom, building an impregnable fortress. But equally, it could provoke other powerful forces, igniting an unpredictable struggle. The consequences were uncertain.

"We must immediately activate the highest-level extraordinary military strategic deployment!" The leader slammed his hand on the table, the sound particularly abrupt in the silence. His eyes were as sharp as a hawk's. "Notify Kunlun's research department to accelerate the mass production of 'Dragon Blood One' at all costs! Speed ​​up talent training and expand the size of the extraordinary forces! Notify the intelligence department to closely monitor the movements of major global powers, especially the United States and those ancient families hiding in the shadows! We must not give them any opportunity to exploit!"

He pointed heavily at the flashing rescue images on the electronic screen, his speech quickening, each word carrying an undeniable resolve.

"At the same time, we must maintain a high degree of restraint in our external relations. We must continue to demonstrate the bravery and spirit of sacrifice of the Kunlun Division in the rescue efforts, as the 'People's Liberation Army.' But internally, we must be prepared for the worst! Our fists must be strong, our fangs must be sharp, but we must also know when to draw them and when to hold back."

The big shot finally turned his gaze back to Su Chen on the screen, a hint of relief appearing on his face.

"Comrade Su Chen, he did a great job." He said softly, as if talking to himself, yet also as if announcing to everyone present, "He demonstrated the strength of the Kunlun Division, but more importantly, he demonstrated the 'humanity' of the Kunlun Division. This is far more effective in winning hearts and minds and in deterring villains than mere strength! He showed the world that we are not only powerful, but also have a strong faith and mission."

"Inform Comrade Su Chen that the Central Military Commission will provide full support for all his actions! He can have whatever personnel, funding, and equipment he needs! We must not allow him to have any worries whatsoever!"

Orders were issued one after another, and the entire military machine of the Dragon Kingdom, driven by the "extraordinary" performance of the Kunlun Division, began to operate at an unprecedented speed. At this moment, the prelude to an era revolving around extraordinary power was fully unveiled, and the Dragon Kingdom was ready to meet the challenge.
