“Did you bring back any Awakening Crystals?”
“Yes, but the Awakening Crystals we brought back were all bought with money. For that, all the money we had deposited in Nord City was spent. In total, we have 150 ordinary Awakening Crystals.”
“Good, hand them all over to me.”
“Uncle Jike, you should go rest first.”
“Right, for the next few days, the affairs of the Territory will be handled by you and Derrick.”
“Yes!”
Taking the 150 ordinary Awakening Crystals brought back by Jike, Yang Zhiwen chose to return to his room, open the Space Gate, and go back to Blue Star.
When Yang Zhiwen returned to Blue Star, it was just past 4 AM.
Yang Zhiwen did not hesitate and immediately drove his electric tricycle towards Anji Mountain in the county.
Around 5 AM, Yang Zhiwen arrived at the foot of Anji Mountain.
Seeing the warning sign prohibiting passage ahead, Yang Zhiwen got off his tricycle and chose to hike up the mountain.
The reason Yang Zhiwen came to Anji Mountain was naturally to inform the country about the existence of the Space Gate.
Anji Mountain was the highest mountain in the county where Yang Zhiwen resided.
And since Jiang Province, where Yang Zhiwen was located, was a coastal province, there was a Radar Station on the summit of Anji Mountain.
This Radar Station could monitor an area spanning thousands of kilometers, so to ensure its safety, there was a Company of Garrison Soldiers stationed there.
Yang Zhiwen chose Anji Mountain naturally because he intended to go to the Radar Station and make direct contact with the military stationed there.
The reason for choosing the military at the Radar Station was twofold: firstly, it was the only military post in Yang Zhiwen’s county; secondly, the special nature of the Radar Station granted the Garrison Soldiers stationed there the authority to directly connect with the Jinling Military Region as a company-level unit.
As long as he could contact the Jinling Military Region, Yang Zhiwen’s matter could be quickly conveyed to the highest levels.
The Jinling Military Region was one of the five major military regions of Huaguo. Furthermore, since the Jinling Military Region was responsible for the defense of several coastal provinces, its rank among the five major military regions was among the top, and its Military Strength and equipment were also considered among the top two of the five major military regions.
Anji Mountain Radar Station.
“Report, Company Commander, the surveillance detected someone entering the restricted area.”
Wang Fuhai watched Yang Zhiwen swagger into the restricted area without much tension, as Yang Zhiwen looked extremely ordinary on the monitor.
Entering the restricted area so brazenly clearly meant he wasn't a spy or saboteur, as such people would surely be cautious—extremely cautious—when approaching the Radar Station.
Therefore, Wang Fuhai assumed Yang Zhiwen was likely someone hiking in the morning who took a wrong turn.
This kind of thing had happened before.
“Squad Leader of the Third Squad, take two men and deal with it.”
“Yes!”
……
Yang Zhiwen proceeded up the mountain along the winding road.
He noticed that since becoming a Transcendent, his physical fitness seemed much stronger. If he had climbed a mountain like this before, he would at least have been breathing heavily, but now, after climbing for nearly half an hour, Yang Zhiwen found his face wasn't red and he wasn't out of breath.
“Stop! This is a military installation ahead, do not approach!”
Just then, three soldiers appeared in front of Yang Zhiwen.
Seeing the three soldiers, Yang Zhiwen immediately approached them enthusiastically.
The three soldiers opposite him, seeing Yang Zhiwen not only fail to stop but continue approaching, immediately raised the guns in their hands.
“Halt! Do not move forward!”
Looking at the three dark muzzles, Yang Zhiwen immediately stopped in his tracks.
Although he was now a Transcendent who could turn his body into metal to enhance his defense, and Yang Zhiwen had experimented before, ordinary blades couldn't scratch his skin.
However, Yang Zhiwen didn't know if a Rifle could penetrate his defense.
One must know that the Type 95 Assault Rifle held by the soldiers could penetrate an eight-millimeter Steel plate at one hundred meters.
“Comrade, I have extremely important matters to discuss with your leader.”
“Comrade, this is a military installation. If you have any difficulties, you can go to the Police; there is a police station at the foot of the mountain.”
“Comrade, what I need to discuss is extremely important; only the military can handle it.”
Seeing the sincere expression on Yang Zhiwen’s face, Li Weiliang naturally didn't believe him, but considering he was just an ordinary person, he followed Yang Zhiwen’s lead and asked.
“Comrade, what important matter do you have?”
“I am a Superpower User!”
Zhang Weiliang: ?????
Hearing Yang Zhiwen’s words, the first thought that flashed through Zhang Weiliang’s mind was, *I am Qin Shi Huang, give me money.*
Then, Zhang Weiliang looked at Yang Zhiwen speechlessly.
“Comrade, this isn't funny…”
Before Zhang Weiliang could finish the word "funny," he saw Yang Zhiwen’s face and exposed hands instantly take on a metallic texture.
Zhang Weiliang glanced at the two behind him, and then all three were completely bewildered.
After transforming into metal, Yang Zhiwen didn't stop his demonstration; he immediately clapped his hands together, and the sound of metal colliding rang out.
Fearing they still didn't believe him, Yang Zhiwen raised his right hand and slammed it hard onto the ground.
“Bang!”
Yang Zhiwen’s hand made zero-distance contact with the concrete ground, and under this strike, a handprint actually appeared on the concrete surface.
Seeing this, Zhang Weiliang immediately realized that what Yang Zhiwen said was true, so he quickly grabbed his walkie-talkie to contact Wang Fuhai.
When Wang Fuhai heard Zhang Weiliang’s report, the first thought that flashed through his mind was also, *I am Qin Shi Huang, give me money.*
However, after Zhang Weiliang guaranteed with his own future that the matter was true, Wang Fuhai immediately took it seriously.
He knew Zhang Weiliang’s character well.
There was no need to lie to him about something like this.
“Zhang Weiliang, bring the person into the base immediately.”
“Deputy Company Commander, from now on, the base enters Level Two combat readiness. Everyone equips live ammunition.”
“Restrict all communications within the base.”
With Wang Fuhai’s authority, he could only put the base on Level Two combat readiness. As for the higher Level One combat readiness, his rank as Company Commander was insufficient to initiate it.
But Level Two combat readiness was already the highest alert level the base could currently reach.
After receiving Wang Fuhai’s order, Zhang Weiliang quickly brought Yang Zhiwen into the Radar Station.
He arranged Yang Zhiwen in a room, guarded outside by a Squad of soldiers.
Not long after Yang Zhiwen entered the room, Wang Fuhai arrived before him.
At the same time, a person carrying camera equipment also entered.
“Hello, Comrade. I am the Company Commander of the Anji Mountain Radar Station. I wonder if you could demonstrate your ability again?”
“Certainly.”
Yang Zhiwen released his ability once more.
And after witnessing Yang Zhiwen’s ability with his own eyes, Wang Fuhai’s eyes widened.
The existence of Superpowers was truly beyond the scope of what they knew.
Wang Fuhai quickly regained his composure. He immediately recognized Yang Zhiwen’s importance, as Superpower Users had never appeared before.
And now, a Superpower User was right in front of him; perhaps he was the very first Superpower User in Huaguo, or even the entire world.
“What should I call you, Comrade?”
“Just call me Yang Zhiwen.”
“Comrade Yang Zhiwen, may I ask you a few questions?”
“You may.”
“When did you acquire this Superpower?”
“Just a few days ago.”
……
Jinling Military Region.
“Report, Commander, the Anji Mountain Radar Station in Jiang Province has used wartime communication to send a message.”
Upon hearing it was a wartime communication, Li Guangren immediately stood up.
The Anji Mountain Radar Station was responsible for monitoring the eastern ocean, so anything warranting the use of wartime communication to contact the Military Region directly must be an extremely urgent matter.
Could it be that America had sent aircraft into Huaguo’s airspace again?
But the last time such a thing happened was a long time ago.
Since Huaguo developed its own stealth aircraft, America’s planes had never intruded into Huaguo’s airspace again.
“Connect it immediately.”
