National Fate: Eight Yin Generals Guard China from Their Sleeping Coffins

Thousands of miles away, in the Bald Eagle Kingdom's territory.

David slammed his palm hard on the "Personal Enhancement" light panel.

A healing beam of light poured down from the sky, peeling away large patches of dead skin charred by the high-pressure rays, revealing newly grown muscle fibers with a dark red metallic sheen.

High temperatures erupted from his internal organs.

David roared, and a dazzling golden flame burst forth from his pores, enveloping his entire body.

S-level superpower: Flame Protection.

David raised his right hand, feeling the surging, violent energy in his veins.

Right now, in terms of muscle density and energy output alone, he is more than five times stronger than he was ten minutes ago.

He suddenly turned to the side, his right fist wreathed in a blinding golden flame, and slammed heavily into the wrecked pulse cannon beast armor beside him.

"boom!"

The three-ton dark alloy remnant shattered into pieces, with the central fracture instantly melting into glaring molten iron.

David shook his wrist, wiping the molten metal off his knuckles.

He glanced coldly at the mangled limbs of the newcomers who had shielded him from the gunfire, a sinister sneer creeping onto his lips.

Are those brain-dead people in China still working for the country for free?

Once I've built up my power to invincibility in this godforsaken place, I'll cross over to that region sooner or later and burn those few tattered corpses and that broken coffin to ashes.

In this world where strength reigns supreme, survival and becoming stronger are the only true goals. What does it matter how many lowly fodder die?

..........

The scene shifts to the Japanese front.

Tanaka slumped in the muddy water and abruptly pressed the enhancement option.

His broken bones instantly healed, and his previously loose skin transformed into a bluish-black steel color in an instant.

A-level superpower, steel-hardened skin.

Tanaka pulled the broken katana from the ground and chopped it down hard on his left arm.

"clang!"

Sparks flew everywhere.

The katana chipped, leaving a nick, but his arm wasn't even marked with a white mark.

Tanaka's cloudy eyes darted around rapidly, and a sickly excitement crept onto his gloomy face.

This body can withstand high-energy rays and sharp claws.

When the next wave of monsters arrives, he can simply stand in front and pretend to be injured, then push those useless new substitutes into the monster pile to buy time.

As long as he survives, he can become the emperor of the new world.

On the front lines of the Russian Empire, the newly appointed captain, Ivan, felt his bones explode like firecrackers under the golden light.

His height increased by one meter out of nowhere, approaching the three-meter mark.

Its body was covered in thick brown mane, and its fangs protruded from its lips.

B-level superpower: Berserk Giant Bear.

Ivan let out a beastly roar and stomped on the rock in front of him, crushing it.

On the White Elephant Kingdom's battlefield, ten semi-transparent spiritual arms sprouted from A-Jie's back.

He controlled the twelve broken spears and ruined swords on the ground with his mind, and the broken blades danced wildly in mid-air, cutting through the sand and dust.

The foreign contestants, having shaken off their previous dejection, unleashed a dazzling array of supernatural abilities across various battlegrounds.

The global live stream was instantly flooded with enthusiastic comments from netizens on foreign websites.

[God bless! David's flames were definitely over 3,000 degrees Celsius! This is what a superhero is!]

【Our Japanese Mr. Tanaka is invincible! The Yamato people will never admit defeat!】

What's so special about the necromancy of China? David could just throw a fireball at them and burn them all to ashes.

[Ivan's slap could shatter the armor of a main battle tank! Hurrah!]

[The Chinese are too stupid! For the sake of their so-called national destiny, they're even willing to forgo the reward of survival. They'll soon die of exhaustion beneath the city walls.]

[Ah Jie's Thousand Hands Illusion is the strongest group battle skill; he's invincible in White Elephant Kingdom!]

With these superpowers, modern firearms can become obsolete. Our nation, the Bald Eagle, will remain the undisputed ruler of Earth!

China's good fortune has run out; let's see how they withstand an even stronger monster.

【..........】

Before the gates of Huaxia City, the yellow sand remains.

Chen Xiao is beside the black wooden coffin.

Guan Shan sat cross-legged on the ground, wiping the blood-stained iron knife with a gray cloth.

Ma Ling leaned against the blue bricks and closed her eyes to rest.

Old Luo was smoking a pipe.

Ji Yuan folded the yellow paper.

Liu Bai closed the dark red wooden box.

Jiang Chen played with the rusty hemp rope.

Su Qingyi's ten fingers flew as she wove black threads.

All eight of them, along with the black wooden coffin, without exception, chose to enhance the nation's fortune.

A grand, ruthless mechanical sound suddenly exploded in the depths of everyone's mind around the world.

[System notification.]

[On the front lines of the Chinese national campaign, all nine participating units have confirmed they are forfeiting their individual rewards.]

[New round of supplementary rules triggered! National fortune bonus increased to 1.5%!]

[The fundamental source of China's national destiny has increased by 60%! The cumulative increase has surpassed 260%!]

The moment the announcement ended.

The golden flames burning on David's body suddenly contracted, flickered twice, and almost went out.

He stared intently at the huge number on the screen, his Adam's apple bobbing, and his forehead instantly covered in cold sweat.

Two hundred and sixty?

What does this mean?

The current national fortune of the Bald Eagle is negative 20%, a figure that is far beyond his common sense.

Are those Chinese people really courting death?

Tanaka's arm, which was about to show off in mid-air, froze.

He didn't know that Chinese athletes could improve their strength through the national fortune; he only saw eight reckless people sacrificing themselves for the country.

A fine layer of goosebumps rose uncontrollably on his bluish-black, tempered skin.

He stared at the eight gatekeepers in the Huaxia live broadcast room, whose expressions hadn't changed at all. His heart clenched, and a nameless fear rushed from his tailbone to his head.

At this moment, athletes from all the surviving countries around the world looked up in unison, gazing towards the direction of the Chinese camp.

His face was ashen.

China's homeland.

The sky cracked open.

It wasn't a single beam of light, but thousands upon thousands of dazzling golden beams of light, piercing through the clouds like divine punishment, precisely striking all directions of the land of China.

The composition of the air undergoes a complete qualitative change.

The originally ethereal spiritual energy suddenly surged in concentration, condensing into visible golden light particles in mid-air.

Light particles drift with the wind, landing on dry riverbeds where springs gush forth; landing on barren mountain rocks where exotic flowers and plants sprout from the stones.

The meridians of 1.4 billion Chinese people are expanding wildly in this torrential rain of spiritual energy.

...........

Yanjing, a top-secret high-altitude training ground for the military.

The "Dragon Soul" special forces are currently conducting a weighted march.

A sudden burst of golden light pierced through the air-raid shelter dome and landed precisely on a 30-person squad.

Captain Li Meng's bones crackled like popping beans.

He grunted and threw away the 100-kilogram tactical backpack on his back.

The moment the backpack hit the ground, his feet defied gravity, and he was uncontrollably suspended ten meters in the air.

Immediately afterwards, the 29 team members behind him floated off the ground one after another.

No auxiliary equipment is needed; one can fly by relying on the surge of spiritual energy within their body.

The mark of a Primordial Awakener: Stepping into the air!

Jiangnan City, an old residential area.

Wang Jianguo, a 70-year-old retired Chinese language teacher, sat on a rattan chair on the balcony with his eyes closed, resting and playing with two pairs of walnuts in his hands.

Golden light swept across the residential buildings.

The old man suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp blue glint flashing in them.

He dropped the walnut and opened his right palm.

Golden light particles in the air frantically converged towards his palm.

In less than three seconds, a fist-sized blue ball of light, formed entirely from pure spiritual energy, spun rapidly in his hand, radiating a chillingly high temperature and destructive power.

Wang Jianguo was startled. He flicked his wrist, and the ball of light flew out of his hand and smashed into the security door.

There was no explosion.

Only the piercing sound of melting remained.

The solid security door, five centimeters thick, was pierced by this ball of light, leaving a hole half a meter in diameter, with molten iron dripping from its edges.

The old woman, who was cooking in the kitchen, peeked out and saw the broken security door and the smoking door frame. With a sudden burst of strength, she snapped the handle of the kitchen knife she was holding.

"You old geezer, what are you doing?!"

My wife roared with all her might, her voice making the balcony glass vibrate.

Such scenes are playing out simultaneously across China's 9.6 million square kilometers of land, in tens of thousands of urban corners.

An office worker smashed his desk with a single slap; a food delivery driver took a step and appeared ten meters away; a paralyzed patient who had been bedridden for many years not only stood up but even bent the steel pipes of his hospital bed with his bare hands.

The data terminal was refreshing rapidly.

China's underground strategic command center.

On the massive holographic data waterfall, the red values ​​are soaring exponentially.

Intelligence Department staff officer Li Meng strode to the command platform, his military boots thumping heavily on the alloy floor. His voice, slightly trembling with shock, reported: "Sir! According to the latest data from the Skynet Vital Signs Monitoring System, the number of people nationwide whose spiritual energy levels have exceeded the critical point and reached the 'Innate Level' standard has increased in the past three minutes..."

Staff Officer Li swallowed hard. "The number has exceeded 1.2 million!"

Zhou Yaoguo stood in front of the huge sand table, his full head of black hair neatly combed.

He looked at the densely packed, lit golden coordinates on the sand table, pressed his hands against the edge of the sand table, and his knuckles bulged from the force.

One million two hundred thousand innate awakeners.

This is not just an army; it's about elevating the 1.4 billion people of China to an incredible, extraordinary level of civilization.

Those foreign contestants dare to make a fuss just because they got some crappy superpower?

Any random square-dancing grandma in China these days is physically capable of tearing apart a giant beast with her bare hands!

"Pass on my orders!"

Zhou Yaoguo suddenly straightened up, a piercing light flashing in his eyes, his voice booming.

"First, immediately mobilize all grassroots police forces, neighborhood committees, and military units nationwide to comprehensively expand the registration scope for awakened individuals. Classify them according to their strength; do not allow any disruption to order!"

"Second, any members of the 'Dragon Soul' special forces who have broken through the limitations of flight capability will be immediately incorporated into the rapid response sequence to fill the gap in border air defense firepower."

"Third, tell Lin Yuan that we will refuse any transactions with those countries internationally. The fate of China was won by our ancestors and the heroes who defended the city with their lives. Who dares to let foreign refugees or mercenaries enter the country at this time..."

Zhou Yaoguo's eyes turned cold. "Kill them without mercy!"
