Chapter 440: Chapter 282: Fear of Insufficient Firepower?_2

For Chen Yun, however, it was different.

He could directly see seven hundred meters underground, and after strolling around Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum Park, he had a good grasp of the structure and details within.

Complex constructions, intricate mechanisms, a vast array of accompanying treasures, dried-up Water Galaxy...

Indeed, the whole view was quite stunning.

That emperor, whose reputation varied in history, was ultimately deeply buried here as time passed.

No living being can escape time.

This realization made Chen Yun quite contemplative.

Chen Yun felt as if he was standing on the edge of the river of history, looking at those names that once shone brilliantly but now were nothing but dust and legends, stirring an indescribable emotion in his heart.

Time flies, and even emperors who once wielded great power and commanded reverence from all over the world could not escape the ravages of time and eventually faded into silence.

He realized,

In the face of the boundless Universe and eternal time, all lives, no matter how powerful or insignificant, were merely fleeting existences.

This realization triggered a subtle shift in Chen Yun’s state of mind.

He couldn’t help but ponder the question again, what would it mean if he could escape the shackles of time through continual Evolution?

Does this imply that he could witness more historical changes, experience more eras, and possibly become the only life form that could contend with time?

If it were truly possible to transcend time, perhaps loneliness and responsibility would also follow?

Chen Yun couldn’t help but imagine what it would be like to experience immutability while everything around him changed.

Seeing friends and family go through generations while he remained constant, was the underlying feeling one of endless loneliness or transcendent wisdom?

Chen Yun knew all this was still hypothetical.

There was a long road ahead, and too many unknowns.

But it was this exploration of the unknown and a deep understanding of time that made him cherish every moment even more and walk his path with greater resolve.

Constantly moving forward, constantly evolving!

Perhaps, one day, he could indeed touch the boundaries of time and glimpse a corner of eternity.

Regarding the future of the Longevity Species,

all in all, Chen Yun was hopeful.

With these reflections, he carefully explored Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum Park.

It took nearly an afternoon before he left.

Afterward,

Chen Yun had no plans to continue exploring Xi’an.

He had carefully examined the Terracotta Army and Emperor’s Mausoleum.

He had already seen many other places in Xi’an, more or less, during his travels.

He planned to leave tomorrow.

For now, he could stay a bit longer tonight.

Thus, Chen Yun went to the well-known Datang Buye City for his final stop, a popular cultural and tourism spot carefully crafted by Xi’an locals.

Datang Buye City, located in the Yanta District of Xi’an City, Shanxi Province, China, is a large commercial and travel pedestrian street in Qujiang New District built around the background of the prosperous Tang Dynasty culture, with Tang-style elements as the main theme, characterized by experiential consumption.

This project aims to recreate the bustling prosperity of the Tang Dynasty’s golden era, allowing visitors to feel as if they have traveled back in time to that glorious age.

Here, there are not only various commercial shops but also a wide variety of cultural and entertainment activities, such as musical fountain performances, light shows, and street art, attracting many domestic and international tourists.

As evening fell,

Chen Yun stayed in a relatively large square.

Casually, he pulled out the snake meat sandwich he had leftover from lunch and discreetly used thermal sight to heat it up through the air as he enjoyed it.

At the same time, he carelessly used the broad range of his Transparent World Perception to sense everything lively around him.

Various performances were taking place in the square.

The sound of countless voices mingling was amusing to hear.

Although he didn’t move around much, Chen Yun could watch all the performances simultaneously.

However, at one moment, he couldn’t help but pause,

directing his attention towards the news on a television in the corner of a shop on the square.

It was an ordinary restaurant.

A TV was broadcasting news inside the shop, below which a few customers were eating their meals.

[News report: According to our observations and data analysis, the recent lightning outbreak in the Xi’an area resulted from the interaction of a unique atmospheric pressure system and humidity conditions. We observed a low-pressure trough meeting a high-humidity environment, which caused instability in the atmospheric electric field, thereby leading to the concentrated outbreak of lightning.]

[However, this is not a phenomenon that requires panic. Indeed, this natural occurrence, although rare, can happen under specific conditions.]

[We urge the public to remain calm and not to worry excessively. Following standard safety guidelines for thunderstorms, like avoiding outdoor activities, staying away from trees and metal objects, and remaining indoors, can ensure safety.]

[Currently, the electric company is dealing with potential power grid fluctuations caused by today’s lightning, and our emergency response team is prepared to handle any unexpected situations...]

Watching the seemingly serious explanations on the news.

Chen Yun couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

Experts are indeed experts, they really know how to bluff.

No one knew better than Chen Yun what those lightning strikes were all about.

What low-pressure trough and high-humidity environment intersection, causing instability in the atmospheric electric field?

Chen Yun could readily produce a lightning storm every time it rained.

Regarding this,

Chen Yun, with disdain, was about to retract his perception,

but suddenly noticed the next piece of news.

[In the coming days, the military will conduct an exercise code-named Mountain Shield in the Qinling area to enhance mountain warfare capabilities, please do not panic when travelling in the following areas...]

[To ensure the local residents’ lives are unaffected, relevant authorities have taken a series of measures, including temporary traffic control and enhanced communication signals.]

Regarding this news,

several customers in the restaurant looked up.

They did catch a glimpse of the various equipment and personnel movements flashing on the television screen.

The scale seemed quite large.

Conducting large-scale exercises in such a mountainous area like Qinling was indeed something novel.

"Wow, that’s quite a large scale."

A customer couldn’t help but comment.

His companion laughed and said, "You think this is large? I often feel inferior because our village isn’t allocated a heavy infantry brigade. Our country’s firepower is still lacking."

After speaking,

the two exchanged smiles.

Chen Yun was observing all this from a distance,

and couldn’t help but chuckle softly to himself.

Alright, alright.

So it’s really a universal fear of insufficient firepower among Hua Country people.

Hua Country only has 29 heavy infantry brigades in total, and just taking a few out could dominate most areas outside the Wuchang area.

And yet, there are people who think each village should have one.

Perhaps a village’s population isn’t even as much as one heavy infantry brigade?

After rolling his eyes helplessly,

Chen Yun realized he might have a bit of that firepower deficiency fear himself.

Honestly,

with his current strength, being the Supreme Emperor of Earth wouldn’t be too difficult.

But he still chose not to stir trouble recklessly.

Partly because he wanted to avoid the hassle,

and also because he wanted to grow until he could "Supernova" with one punch to truly feel at ease.

However...

Such a disorder seemed to have no impact.

It could even be said that the existence of this disorder is more beneficial than harmful for survival.

Chen Yun decided not to change it for the time being.

And compared to changing this disorder,

the information revealed by this news is what he should be more concerned about now.

Military exercises near Qinling?

And the scale looks so big?

Clearly.

They were looking for him.

Or more precisely, they were looking for whatever was causing a big commotion in Qinling.

He wasn’t afraid of official attention.

But neither did he want to get too involved.

"It seems, it’s indeed time to move on to the next stop."

While reflecting,

Chen Yun firmed up his decision to leave Xi’an the next day.
