You Say You Believe in Science, But You Fly on a Sword - Chapter 56
Chapter 56: Spiritual Energy Revival?
Su Qin’an read the message and didn’t dare to delay for a moment.
Let alone what the Yunnan-Myanmar borderline means, even for the sake of the soldiers’ lives on the borderline, he couldn’t afford to delay.
A black sword energy soared into the sky, resembling a meteor in the night sky, cutting across the heavens and rushing towards the South.
A moment later, a white sword shadow soared into the sky and followed.
“They’ve made their move. ”
Su Qin’an’s expression was extremely unsightly: “They’ve already started attacking the Northern Myanmar borderline. ”
“I know. ”
Xie Yingqing nodded slightly: “There are no casualties… their purpose should not be destruction, but to force us to reveal ourselves. ”
“It’s to force the entire Huaxia Cultivation World to reveal themselves. ”
Su Qin’an said coldly: “After this is over, we’re afraid we can’t keep it secret anymore. ”
“Fortunately, isn’t your research almost finished? ”
Xie Yingqing said, handing her cell phone to Su Qin’an: “Look at this video. ”
Su Qin’an took the video, his expression gradually becoming stern: “Have they gone mad? Do they really want to have a showdown with mortals? ”
The content showed two tiny figures fighting in the air, with occasional blade light and sword shadow flashing; the perspective was from the ground, filming the sky.
“Don’t worry, look at the comments below. ”
Xie Yingqing smiled: “I’ve discovered that China’s development over these years… wasn’t in vain after all! ”
Su Qin’an steadied himself and opened the comments section.
Want to marry Han Xin: Wow, what fellow Daoist is sparring here? Let me join!
0009: Spiritual Energy Revival… Am I finally going to live a life where I’m neither better than my elders nor better than my juniors?
Holding hands with weasel: Spiritual Energy Revival! Long live Cultivation!
The last beggar: Fellow Daoist, may I have a word with you!
After reading a bunch of comments, Su Qin’an’s hanging heart finally died… no, finally calmed down.
“I knew this generation of netizens has a future! ”
Su Qin’an let out a long sigh of relief: “I thought we would have to make an effort, but it turns out they can self-destruct locally! ”
“What do you mean? ”
“Antonym, everything’s going well. ”
…
“Good, the Chinese people are completely panicked! The… public pressure on their side must be very serious too! ”
Saintly Radiance, the Sect Master sitting at the front, looked at the comments under the video: “They’re still fantasizing about Spiritual Energy Revival… when we show ourselves, let’s see what you’ll do! ”
“Sect Master, we should now… ”
“Tell the people of the Hidden Sect to seize the opportunity to add fuel to the fire. We must completely plunge China into chaos! And those people over there, after China is in chaos, they can quickly strike! ”
“Yes! ”
…
In just a few minutes, the two people had already arrived at the China-Myanmar borderline.
As the southern gateway of China, the defense here has always been extremely strict, with many soldiers armed with guns and very advanced weapons.
At this moment, the garrison here has implemented scorched-earth tactics, and the already tight defense line is even more airtight, making people hesitant to approach.
As soon as the two approached, a group of soldiers immediately surrounded them. The Captain, holding a gun, walked out, gave them a military salute, and said loudly: “Are you two Minister Liu Qiming’s people? ”
Su Qin’an nodded: “We are. We are commissioned by Minister Liu to deal with the haunted incident in Northern Myanmar. ”
“Please follow me. ”
The Captain waved his hand, signaling the others to disperse, then took out his radio and reported the situation to his superiors.
A moment later, the Captain led the two into a large conference hall.
There was no one else in the conference hall, only a middle-aged man in military uniform.
The Captain saluted the man respectfully, then closed the door and went out.
There wasn’t a single extra movement throughout the process, showing his high level of training.
For a moment, only Su Qin’an, Xie Yingqing, and the middle-aged man were left in the huge conference hall.
“Let me introduce myself, my name is Wu Lingyu, Commander-in-Chief of the Yunnan-Myanmar Borderline. ”
Wu Lingyu got straight to the point: “Since you two are people introduced by Minister Liu and guaranteed by Minister Zhang, you must have a way to deal with the current situation. I wonder how we can cooperate? ”
“I want to understand the situation first. ”
Su Qin’an said: “Do you have any relevant materials here? ”
Wu Lingyu nodded and turned on the large screen in the conference hall: “This is footage taken by our soldiers when they were out on reconnaissance, attacked, and retreated. It might be helpful to you. ”
An image appeared on the large screen.
It was very clear, but it was constantly shaking, showing that the cameraman was very nervous.
When border defense soldiers were patrolling as usual, they discovered a group of semi-transparent creatures with ferocious faces, looking very much like ghosts, constantly approaching the borderline of Yunnan Province.
The team leader immediately warned them, but the other side ignored them and continued to move forward.
The captain issued a second warning, but they remained unmoved.
The captain frowned, half-bent, holding his gun, vigilantly watching the other side.
“I warn you for the third time, you are illegally approaching the China borderline! If you don’t stop, you will be considered illegal entry, and we will take military self-defense measures! ”
The “ghosts” on the opposite side seemed to be enraged. After a silent roar, they launched a charge. Soon, they were less than ten meters away from the squad.
“Calling superiors, calling superiors, this is Patrol Eighth Squad, we have an emergency situation, there are more than a dozen people illegally approaching our border, I have issued three warnings, and the other party still ignores them, request to open fire! ”
“Approve a trial attack. If the other party doesn’t care, you can strengthen the attack as appropriate, prioritizing your own safety! ”
“Received! ”
The captain received the instructions, immediately organized the entire squad to occupy advantageous terrain, and then fired the first shot.
Unexpectedly, the bullets hit those ghosts, but caused no damage at all, just passing through their bodies.
It was as if they hadn’t hit anything at all, even the captain wondered if he was seeing things.
A team member disbelievingly fired another shot, with the same result as before.
The ghosts on the other side even managed to show a contemptuous expression, then continued to move forward.
“Calling superiors! Calling superiors! ”
The captain immediately called for help: “Our weapons cannot cause effective damage to the other party, request support! ”
“Immediately conduct a strategic retreat, we will send people to reinforce you! ”
After the Eighth Squad retreated, reinforcements were immediately sent here.
Because the Eighth Squad captain said, “Our weapons cannot cause effective damage to the other party,” the reinforcements specially brought anti-tank guns, single-soldier rocket launchers, heavy machine guns, and other weapons.
After all, the reason for fear is always insufficient firepower!
Unfortunately, no matter what kind of heavy weapon, it could not cause effective damage to these ghosts.
Helplessly, the border guards had no choice but to carry out scorched-earth tactics, stalemate with the other party, and immediately report the situation to the Ministry of Defense.
Fortunately, the ghosts on the other side did not have any intention of invading, only stopping a meter or two beyond the borderline.
It was not very harmful, but extremely insulting. The bl00d-blooded captain wanted to go out and die with them on the spot.
The footage ended here, and Wu Lingyu’s voice sounded: “Do you two have a solution? “
