Just two hours later, the car exited the highway. To Su Muchen's surprise, the car passed a sign that read "Military Area, Do Not Approach" and then arrived at a gate guarded by heavily armed soldiers.

Qian Yutang explained his purpose, and after the duty room reported to their superiors, their vehicle was quickly allowed to pass.

As soon as the car entered the gate, Su Muchen saw that there were many sentry posts around the area. In addition to these visible sentry posts, Su Muchen also discovered many hidden sentry posts around the area thanks to his keen senses.

Especially those sentries, the soldiers hidden in the shadows exuded a faint murderous aura, making the surroundings seem shrouded in a chilling atmosphere.

"Brother Qian, where is this place? I feel like we've driven into a military region."

"Hehe! Brother Su, you don't need to be so surprised. We are currently within the Jiangbei Military Region."

Seemingly noticing the puzzled look on Su Muchen's face and knowing what he wanted to ask, Qian Yutang continued:

"Brother Su, let me first introduce the situation here to you. Our Dragon Kingdom is currently divided into five war zones: the East, West, South, North, and Central War Zones, plus the Central War Zone. Jiangbei Province belongs to the Central War Zone, and the headquarters of the Jiangbei Provincial Military Region is located in Jiangmao City, which is the area we are in now."

"However, we are not in a military base now, but in a military family compound. The people living here are all senior generals of the Jiangbei Military Region."

"Oh, so that means Brother Qian's elder relative is a high-ranking general in the Jiangbei Military Region?"

Since Qian Yutang has been so blunt, the identity of the elder he is referring to is already obvious.

"That's right. The reason I didn't tell you about that elder's identity before was because his identity had to be kept secret. But now that there's no one else here, I won't hide it from you anymore. My elder is the deputy commander of the Chinese Theater Command, in charge of the Jiangbei Military Region."

Su Muchen was surprised. He never expected that the elder Qian Yutang mentioned was actually a deputy commander of a war zone. To become a deputy commander of a war zone, the lowest military rank is lieutenant general. This identity is too frightening.

"Brother Su, my elder brother's surname is Luo. He made great achievements in his youth. In particular, during the Sino-Vietnamese War decades ago, Elder Luo relied on his extraordinary military command ability to annihilate half a Vietnamese division with only one regiment in one battle. He killed nearly 3,000 people and captured more than 2,000. He was revered as the modern-day god of death, Bai Qi."

This is truly an impressive feat. A regiment of only about three thousand men faced off against five thousand and still managed to achieve a complete victory. Not only did they kill most of the enemy troops, but they also captured the rest. This is enough to show that General Luo has exceptional military command abilities.

"This Commander Luo is indeed remarkable. By the way, Brother Qian, could you tell me about the old general's condition?"

Such a distinguished figure, and a deputy commander of a war zone, should be highly valued by the country. How could he suddenly fall ill and never recover? Moreover, the country has been helpless in treating his condition for so many years, which indeed puzzled Su Muchen.

"Well, it's strange. Five years ago, the Chinese Theater Command and the Southern Theater Command conducted a military exercise in the deep mountains on the border with Vietnam. Uncle Luo was the leader of the Chinese Theater Command team. However, during the exercise, Uncle Luo had an accident and suddenly fell into a coma. He has been bedridden for the past five years, and the cause of his illness has never been found, so he has been unable to receive effective treatment."

Su Muchen frowned slightly. According to Qian Yutang, Commander Luo's illness was sudden. With the current level of medical technology, it was impossible that the cause of the illness could not be found. How could such a thing happen?

Could it be that Commander Luo wasn't actually sick, but rather harmed by some special means? After all, there are many things in this world that science cannot explain.

Take the cultivation world for example. It's something science can't explain. Dragon Kingdom has a cultivation world, and other countries also have their own cultivation systems. Perhaps Commander Luo was really harmed by cultivators from other countries.

"Brother Su, has something come to mind?"

Seeing Su Muchen frowning and thinking after hearing his words, Qian Yutang couldn't help but ask.

"It's nothing. There's no use saying more now. We'll only know the real cause of the illness after we see the patient."

At this moment, the car stopped in front of a traditional Chinese villa.

"We're here, Brother Su. Let's go, I'll take you to see that legendary figure in the military!"

At this moment, a middle-aged man in military uniform was already standing at the door of the house. He looked to be about the same age as Qian Yutang. However, judging from the military uniform he was wearing, with two bars and four stars on his shoulders, he was clearly an officer with the rank of senior colonel. His position in the military was at least at the deputy division level or above.

"Old Luo, why are you at home? Shouldn't you be at the base at this time?"

As soon as Qian Yutang got out of the car, he greeted the senior colonel warmly, clearly indicating that the two had a very special relationship.

"Old Qian, you know my father's condition. In his current state, how could I possibly stay at the base? That's why I came out to meet you personally after hearing the report from the gatekeeper."

The senior colonel's eyes were downcast, and his grief was palpable, indicating that his father's deteriorating condition had been a great blow to him.

"Old Luo, don't be too sad. I believe Uncle Luo will get better. Come on, let me introduce you to someone."

Qian Yutang patted the senior colonel on the shoulder to comfort him, and then introduced Su Muchen, who had gotten out of the car, to the senior colonel.

"This is my new acquaintance, Su Muchen. Lao Luo, don't let Su's young age fool you, he's incredibly talented and the most outstanding young man I've ever met."

Qian Yutang's introduction of Su Muchen caught the colonel's eye. Based on his understanding of Qian Yutang, few young people could catch his eye. The fact that he was praising a young man like this clearly showed that the young man had something special about him.

"Come, Brother Su, let me introduce you. This is Luo Heng, my childhood best friend. He's now the commander of an elite division in the Jiangbei Military Region, known as the 'Tiger Warriors'."

"Commander Luo, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

"Brother Su, there's no need to be so polite. I'm being presumptuous by calling you 'brother,' but you can just call me 'brother' like you do with Lao Qian."

"Okay, Brother Luo!"

The two exchanged a few polite words, and then Luo Heng looked at Qian Yutang with a questioning gaze, his meaning clear: he was asking why he had brought a young man with him at this time.

"Hehe, Lao Luo, don't let Brother Su's young age fool you, his medical skills are superb. I had to beg and plead to get him here."

Luo Heng was surprised. He didn't expect that the young man Qian Yutang brought would know medicine, but his age made him a little suspicious.

"So Brother Su is a doctor. It's truly remarkable that you've become a physician at such a young age. However, many medical authorities are helpless when it comes to my father's illness. I'm worried..."

Although Luo Heng didn't say the rest aloud, his meaning was clear: he obviously didn't believe in Su Muchen's medical skills.

"Hehe! Lao Luo, I know what you're thinking. At first, I was just like you, skeptical of Brother Su's medical skills. But after learning about one thing, I have no doubt about Brother Su's medical skills. Brother Su can be called a contemporary miracle doctor."

"What? A miracle doctor?"
