   Reader note

   China's literary tradition is vast, its brilliance shining like stars under the high sun. Before us lie the legendary odes of the Qin and Han dynasties, and after us the grand odes of the Sui and Tang dynasties. Jia Yi's insightful words lamented the fate of the Han dynasty, while Xin Qiji and Yue Fei shook the barbarian lands. We, insignificant as we are, are but mediocre talents; all we can do is write poems to praise the nation's worthies.

   ① On the edge where reality and dreams intertwine, a group of nameless individuals lie hidden. This is not only a realistic portrayal of modern field agents, but also a profound analysis of the inner world of these unsung heroes—a magnificent epic blending blood and sweat, laughter and tears. ② [A Silent Oath] They are guardians traversing the darkness, silently building immortal achievements with wisdom and courage as their blades. Their names may be forgotten in the dust of history, but their deeds, like stars, illuminate the future of the nation. In every quiet night, they prove with their actions that true heroes never seek the spotlight, but rather embrace solitude, hearing thunder in silence. ③ [The Tenderness of Balancing Family and Country] Amidst tense battles and treacherous international situations, they are also ordinary people, with a deep longing for their families. The laughter around the dinner table, the playful antics with children—these warm daily moments are their strongest support and the source of their unwavering protection. The warmth of family and friends, like a lighthouse in the dark night, guides them through storms and back to the harbor of their hearts. ④ [Humor and Teamwork Within the Group] Within the combat team, they are not only comrades-in-arms who entrust their lives to each other, but also partners who laugh together in life. During breaks in tense missions, they use humor to relieve stress and a relaxed atmosphere to strengthen their bonds. This unintentional humor acts as a lubricant in battle, making the team more cohesive and demonstrating extraordinary teamwork and trust. ⑤ [A Battle of Combat and Wisdom] Every operation is a dual test of intelligence and physical strength. The close division of labor, rigorous focus, and flexible adaptation to missions among team members showcase the superb skills and strategic wisdom of modern special agents. On the brink of life and death, they calmly analyze every detail, interpreting "both wisdom and courage" with precise actions. ⑥ [Emotion and Suspense Coexist] The story is interwoven with emotional entanglements and plot twists. Every choice is accompanied by inner struggle and sacrifice, allowing readers to feel the brilliance and complexity of humanity amidst the tense pace. Curiosity drives us to delve into the inner world of each character, exploring their hidden secrets, and the resolution of each conflict is a resonance and release of the soul. --- In 2068, in City B, China, on a misty morning, the sun seemed to have dimmed its usual brilliance, the sky a pale, melancholic blue. A gentle breeze rustled through the treetops, bringing a subtle coolness; fallen leaves swirled slowly in the air before settling quietly on the damp ground, nature seeming to murmur a somber murmur. In that highly advanced technological age, as "A" was about to leave this world, soft, intelligent lighting in the room simulated the first rays of morning sunlight, gently falling on his face, attempting to add warmth to this final moment. On the walls, instead of static photographs, the latest light screen technology slowly played back the moments of their combat team members. On the screen, dynamic images flowed, snapshots of the years "A" and his team had shared: from arduous training grounds to perilous missions, and then to precious moments of leisure, when they sat together, sharing a virtual reality meal, their smiles so radiant they seemed to pierce through the screen, warming the hospital room. Everyday humor and intense focus during battles alternated on the screen... In a corner of the room, a smart assistant stood quietly, storing all of "A's" voice communications with his family. Now, it softly played their voices—loving words of advice and playful banter—like a warm breeze, dispelling the somber atmosphere of the ward. Outside the window, the skyline of a future city gradually emerged in the dawn light, towering buildings reflecting the rising sun, appearing both magnificent and desolate. Drones swept gently overhead, silently carrying out their daily tasks; this bustling yet orderly world was the result of their youth and passion. "A's" gaze slowly swept over everything, his heart filled with peace and relief. He knew that even as he was about to leave, new guardians would continue their unfinished work on this land, and his memories with his combat team members would be preserved forever through these advanced technologies, becoming a source of inspiration for future generations. In his final moments, he seemed to see himself and his comrades reunited in another world, a world without battle, only eternal peace and laughter. As "A" exhaled his last breath, the entire room seemed to be enveloped in an indescribable tranquility. The outside world continued to operate according to its own laws, but in this small house, time seemed to stand still, and everything was mourning the passing of this hero. At that moment, family and nature alike were immersed in a solemn and profound mourning, as if the entire universe was bidding farewell to "A's" soul, wishing him to continue guarding the light in another form on another journey. ---- [Entrance to the Underworld, in a dim light] "A" slowly opened his eyes, the scene before him making him momentarily dazed. The surroundings were no longer the familiar battlefield or the cozy home, but a bizarre and fantastical space, a fusion of technology and the underworld beyond imagination. He slowly stood up, trying his best to stay awake, and rubbed his long-dormant eyes. "Hey," he placed his hand on his face, a long-lost feeling surging back, "Am I younger?" He shook his head vigorously, calming his excited heart, and stretched his body to feel the youthful energy he hadn't felt in so long. "Ah, how nostalgic," he sighed... Just then, a screen the size of a person appeared before him, accompanied by a familiar electronic voice: [Underworld Intelligent Guide (AI Form)]: "Welcome to the Underworld Technology Zone, number E007. Are you a new soul? I am your personal guide; you can call me 'Guide 01'." "A" looked around, puzzled, and asked, "Where is this? Have I... Already left?" [Guide 01]: "Yes, you have completed your mission in the human world. This is the Underworld, but you will find that it is not entirely disconnected from your previous world. The tide of technological progress has also swept through the Underworld; we retain the data memories of all souls." "A" felt a surge of complex emotions. He asked softly, "Then, can I still see my family, my battle comrades?" [Guide 01]: "Of course. Here, through the Memory Corridor, you can access your cherished memories at any time, and even communicate with those souls who are already waiting here. Please follow me." Guided by "Guide 01," "A" entered a corridor made of light screens. At each point, fragments of his life appeared on the screens: heartwarming moments with his family, seamless teamwork with his combat squad during tense missions, and lighthearted moments during lulls in the fighting. "A" stopped before a screen showing his family gathered around him, tears welling in his eyes. He smiled and nodded, remaining silent. [Guide 01]: "Emotions and memories are eternal; they transcend the boundaries of life and death. In this dimension, you will have new understandings and experiences, but the connection with your family will never be severed." "A" nodded, a new strength welling up within him—an endless reverence and gratitude for life. A few minutes later, "DING, you have arrived at the memory review area. Please undergo memory inspection." At that moment, a light appeared before A's eyes, enveloping him... Time flowed by... In his memory, the daily life of the combat team vividly appeared before him: their sweat during training, their tacit cooperation during missions, and the heartwarming scenes of relaxed jokes and mutual support among team members during breaks. A hint of surprise flashed in [Guide 01]'s eyes, followed by deep respect. He saw "A" facing numerous crises alone during a mission to protect Chinese people overseas; he saw "B" using his wisdom to break through the enemy's network defenses in an emergency; and he saw "C" bravely shielding his teammates from danger with his own body at a critical moment. The surrounding souls witnessed this scene as well. One former comrade, who had seen the battle in "A's" memory, whispered excitedly, "They were like lightning in the night, silently breaking the dawn. Every action they took was a counterattack against the darkness. When they were surrounded, it was his calm command and strategy that turned the danger into safety, allowing them to escape unscathed." Another soul, a former medic, described with tears in his eyes, "C" and his team were an unbreakable shield on the battlefield, but also a warm home. When they were wounded, "C" was always the last to retreat, ensuring no one was left behind. The unwavering determination in his back is something I will never forget." The surrounding souls, whether former comrades or strangers, were deeply moved by the heroic deeds of "Shadow" and his team. A sense of admiration and pride welled up among them, as if they too had participated in that glorious history. Although they had never met in life, at this moment, their souls were connected by light. "Salute!" "Someone among the souls shouted, and they turned their resolute and reverent gazes toward 'A' and the members of the combat team in the light screen... Tears welled in A's eyes; he felt an unprecedented warmth. Though nameless, at this moment, all his sacrifices and struggles seemed utterly worthwhile... Meanwhile, [King Yama] silently watched this scene, his eyes deep... He gestured to his subordinates, who immediately understood. ---- [At the King Yama's Palace] Two enormous quantum doors opened automatically, their surfaces flowing with coded runes that writhed like living things, identifying the digital imprint of each soul. Behind the doors, a holographic bridge of helplessness floated in the void, its surface shifting with light and shadow, reflecting the intertwined scenes of the past and future, each step treading on the quicksand of time. 'A's' eyes widened. 'This is? The Cyber ​​King Yama's Palace?'" "A" cautiously entered the palace, stepping onto the Bridge of Helplessness that existed in the void... In the center, Yama, the King of Hell, sat on a throne constructed of photons, draped in a robe woven from dark energy. His face was majestic and mysterious, his eyes occasionally flashing with the light of data streams, as if he could see through the secrets of all souls. Beside him, a group of judges were not traditional figures, but highly intelligent AI avatars. They held photon pens, sketching the trajectory of each soul's fate in the void. "I'm doomed," A muttered, his legs trembling... [Yama] sat upright, staring into A's eyes, then suddenly grinned... "Ahhhhh," A cried out inwardly. Suddenly, a brilliant plan flashed into his mind, "My lord... My admiration for you is like a rushing river, an endless, boundless, timeless melody!" [Yama] grunted upon hearing this, then clicked on the light screen before him, pressing and releasing... A vanished instantly, only to reappear before [King Yama]... "M-My Lord, is there something you need?" A's heart trembled... "Hehe, no, I just wanted to chat with this junior." "Alright, let's get back to business," [King Yama] said solemnly. [Soul Walker, you have witnessed the vicissitudes of your life. Recalling the past, have you ever regretted any of your actions, even the most insignificant choices?] King Yama's voice was deep and magnetic, echoing in every corner of the Cyber ​​Yama Palace, as if resonating directly in the depths of your soul. After a moment of silence, A stared at the fragments of memory swirling in the void. He paused, then suddenly became serious, and slowly replied, "I have no regrets in my life. Every drop of sweat, every parting, even every drop of blood, has been poured into the soil that protects peace. Even if I were to start over, I would still choose this path, for my country, for the light, a thousand times over." "[King Yama] nodded and continued to ask: 'If time could turn back, and all possibilities were reset, how would you paint your life's picture? Would you stick to the old path, or forge a new one?' A pondered for a moment, a resolute glint in his eyes: 'If time could turn back and everything restarted, I would still choose this unknown path. Perhaps there would be more difficulties and challenges, perhaps more sacrifices would be required, but I know that every choice is an adherence to my inner beliefs, and every action is a practice of my patriotism.' 'I would choose to meet again with those comrades who fought alongside me, to share those unknown burdens, because in that journey, we not only accomplished our mission, but also gained irreplaceable friendship and trust. I would cherish every moment with my family even more, letting them know that even if I am in the shadows, my heart is always with them.' 'I am willing to go through those difficult decisions again, because in each test, I have become clearer about my mission and value.'" "I will be more courageous in battle and more gentle in life, making my existence a source of strength for others, and letting the light of my life illuminate even the darkest corners." "Therefore, even if I were to choose a thousand times, my answer would remain unchanged. Because this is not only my personal choice, but also a tribute to those unsung heroes, and an eternal pursuit of justice and peace. In the endless river of time, I wish to once again become that silent lightning, illuminating every corner of the world in silence." [King Yama] nodded. Finally, [King Yama's] gaze deepened, as if piercing the boundaries of time and space. He whispered, "Now that you have understood, I want to ask you, what is without regret, what is truly living?" A straightened his spine, his voice carrying a magnanimity and strength that transcended life and death: "Do not fear choice, do not regret the past. The beauty of life lies in its uncertainty and challenges. Embrace every moment, bravely love, dream, and create your own legend. Though we are nameless in this world, in each other's hearts, we are eternal heroes." Continue onward, until the light shines upon the earth, until our last breath, we will protect that hard-won peace. We have no regrets, for we are the guardians, the unsung heroes!

    Patriotic sentiment in "The Traveler Yue Lai": Wang Huan also slapped his master. Adding the Wind Walk attribute for added excitement, his attack speed was significantly faster this time, spraying the fire serpent like a showerhead, corroding half of its scales. The fire serpent roared, continuously spewing flames. A large vortex reappeared. This was Ying Gu's Water Walk technique. "Water Vortex"—the vortex contained endless water. The water flowed towards the giant fire serpent, freezing its form. At this moment, Ying Gu's figure had vanished. When she reappeared, she was already standing on the giant fire serpent's head, raising her sword and slashing down on its head. The fire serpent fell to the ground, rolling incessantly. This time, the giant fire serpent was completely defeated. With a bang, the fire serpent self-destructed, but without power, scattering colorful snake scales all over the ground. Fire Serpent Scales are one of the materials used to refine the Five Elements Armor, and are extremely rare. Therefore, after death, all of the cultivator's cultivation is transferred to the serpent scales, so it won't generate fire elemental power that can be absorbed by others, nor will it harm anyone. Isn't this like finding a treasure?
