Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm

Qian Rui glanced at the new recruits and smiled with some difficulty: "As long as we wear this military uniform, everything we do has meaning."

He immediately fulfilled the duties of a squad leader: "What are you all doing gathered around here? There's still a chance of Yetis appearing nearby, Deng Yanping alone staying to take care of me is sufficient."

The "Deng Yanping" he mentioned is the name of the medic.

No sooner had he finished speaking.

A sound came from a distance.

A bus drove toward this side.

The bus came to a stop nearby, the vehicle barely stopping before the door opened.

The driver was the first to jump off, followed by a crowd of passengers.

"Where is the squad leader?"

"Quickly get the squad leader onto the bus."

"We just called the hospital; they're already prepared over there, and a doctor will meet you at the entrance."

Soon enough.

Qian Rui was carried onto the bus by a group of people working together.

Feeling the softness beneath him, his throat felt somewhat choked up.

The passengers had spontaneously taken off their cotton coats and down jackets, placing them on the bus floor to form a bed of cotton.

There is an ancient saying in Great Xia — One who lights the fire for others should not freeze to death in the wind and snow.

The Great Xia people used their actions to interpret this saying.

Over a dozen kilometers away.

Lingya Park.

The news of the first Yeti appearing quickly spread over.

The highest officials of the Fifth War Zone, Colonel Ankai Kingdom, and Director Zhang of Liren Lijiang Branch, together arrived beneath the new Crow's Nest.

Liu Hei flapped his wings and descended, speaking: "I have already seen the Yeti; this world is becoming increasingly dangerous."

Director Zhang's tone was full of admiration: "Mr. Spirit Crows predicted it again, even calculating the exact time the Yeti would appear."

The appearance of Yetis is, naturally, the result of Cold Abyss's power infiltration.

It brought a global cold wave, transformed the Arctic into a terrifying icefield, and spawned Yetis.

Not only did Yetis appear in Linjiang City, but soon they would appear all over the world.

Yang Fan had already foreseen this and reported it to Great Xia, so Great Xia prepared in advance, began large-scale troop training, and equipped each outpost with weapons.

Had that been all, Director Zhang wouldn't be so impressed.

The key is, Yang Fan's prediction timing was only one day earlier.

Yesterday, there was a high probability that Yetis had already been born, though Great Xia did not monitor them.

This perfectly aligns with Yang Fan's judgment.

Colonel Ankai Kingdom sighed: "Yetis are far more dangerous than Poisonous Mosquitos, this time it's estimated many more will die worldwide."

Liu Hei nodded, reporting a number: "The master said, within half a year, the casualties might be in the tens of millions."

Colonel Ankai Kingdom was shocked: "That many?!"

Liu Hei replied: "The master conducted another observation, the Yetis born on Canglan Star might be more than previously estimated."

Colonel Ankai Kingdom's expression became serious, asking: "Is there a need to deploy more outposts in cities within Great Xia?"

Liu Hei conveyed Yang Fan's suggestion: "It can be increased by twenty percent."

Colonel Ankai Kingdom nodded appreciatively: "I'll report to the superiors immediately."

Liu Hei changed the topic: "I saw that squad leader's arm was broken; how do you plan to treat him?"

Director Zhang answered this query: "The squad leader has already signed up for the Superpower Research Institute's 'Mechanical Combat Arm' project.

"The researchers plan to equip him with a mechanical arm, not only as flexible as a normal arm but also greatly increasing combat effectiveness."

Liu Hei nodded his bird head: "Sounds good."

Director Zhang added: "But the project is still in its initial stages; it is estimated to take 3-4 years to develop a mature product."

Liu Hei snickered: "That slow?"

Director Zhang felt a twitch on his face.

Slow?

Integrating humans and mechanics, even the Mermaid thinks it's a promising research project.

The Mermaid also said, given Canglan People's current standards, 3-4 years is already remarkably fast.

Liu Hei said: "The master is interested in this; the master said he would take action, allowing the Superpower Research Institute to deliver the mechanical arm."
