Chapter 413 Dawn Military Hospital
The surprise Li Chenglong felt from the overnight power-ups of those superhumans that morning made him feel like he'd forgotten something. Just as he was driving towards the Dawn Army headquarters, Yun Lan called.
Li Chenglong answered the phone via voice control, and Yun Lan immediately asked, "Quickly check what level the crystal in that spiritual energy space is now. I'm so curious." Only then did he realize what he had forgotten—it was this.
After pulling over, Li Chenglong probed his spiritual energy space and discovered that after a night of nurturing, a level 11 crystal had actually condensed in the natural area. However, upon closer inspection, he found that the crystal had stopped condensing energy, suggesting that with his current abilities, he could only produce a maximum of level 11 crystals.
Li Chenglong immediately told Yunlan the news. Yunlan said in surprise, "It can actually condense a level 11 crystal. It's much better than I thought. I thought the highest level would be level 8 or 9. You can set a timer and see how long it takes to condense a level 11 crystal. That way, you can keep making them."
Li Chenglong laughed and said, "Is this some kind of hen that's used to lay eggs, and it keeps producing crystals? But it doesn't have to be that complicated. I found that after the first crystal is condensed, it will automatically start condensing the second crystal. Moreover, I checked my own spiritual energy and the state of various parts of the spiritual energy space, and found that it did not have any impact. This is good news, so we don't have to worry too much in the future."
He then added, "This morning I had Susie and Li Yunhao leave Dawn Tower and go play somewhere else, so the little guy could see what's outside Dawn Tower and observe various parts of Dawn City. It will definitely be helpful for his growth. Don't worry about safety; we have the Crystal Network Sky Eye System, and the little guy also has a bracelet on his arm, so nothing will happen."
Yun Lan replied, "Okay, I understand. I'll bring him with me when I come to the mech brigade base tomorrow. I'm a bit busy here, so I'll hang up now. See you at headquarters at noon." After Yun Lan hung up, Li Chenglong heard someone knocking on his car window. He turned around and saw it was a traffic police officer from Shuguang City. When Li Chenglong rolled down the window, he realized it was a neatly dressed female traffic police officer. Her body camera was already on, and there was a police motorcycle parked behind her.
Upon seeing that it was Li Chenglong, the female traffic police officer paused slightly, then looked at the license plate before saluting and saying, "Hello, Lord Li, I am the traffic police officer in charge of this area. My name is Liang Xiaohua, and my badge number is JT00157. You are currently parked in a temporary parking area. According to the traffic laws of Shuguang City, the maximum parking time in a temporary parking area is five minutes. According to the alert from the Crystal Network Sky Eye System, I have found that your car has been parked for more than six minutes. Therefore, you need to pay a fine and move your vehicle immediately. If there is any problem with the vehicle, I can help you contact a tow truck."
Li Chenglong glanced at his watch and realized he was indeed late. He got out of the car and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work. It's thanks to traffic police like you who are so dedicated to your posts that traffic in Shuguang City can always flow so smoothly. Can I pay the fine electronically?"
The female traffic police officer smiled politely and said, "Sure, this is our payment QR code, and this is the ticket. If you have any objections to this penalty, you can bring the receipt and ticket to the lobby on the first floor of the Shuguang City Traffic Department within 5 days to provide feedback. Alternatively, you can log in to the Traffic Department's official website through Jingshi Network and submit a review application on the relevant page. We will give you a satisfactory reply within three days."
After Li Chenglong paid the fine, the policewoman recorded it using the special equipment issued to her department, handed the receipt to Li Chenglong, and said with a smile, "Okay, please leave quickly." After giving Li Chenglong a standard salute, she started her motorcycle and drove away.
Although Li Chenglong paid the fine, he was still very satisfied with the work of the Shuguang City Transportation Department and the traffic police, especially the traffic police's attitude, which was commendable and showed that their usual training was definitely in place. With that thought, he started his car and sped towards the headquarters.
Upon arriving at headquarters, Zheng Yong and Feng Tian eagerly told Li Chenglong about the large number of newly upgraded Level 11 ability users that had appeared overnight. Although he already knew, he patiently and attentively listened to their story. Zheng Yong smiled and said, "With these newly upgraded Level 11 ability users, plus the original ones, our Dawn City now has over 600 Level 11 ability users. Add to that you advanced Awakened Ones, and with this fighting strength, even if aliens attack immediately, we won't be afraid."
Feng Tian continued, "Moreover, we received contact from other bases early this morning. Due to the influence of the colorful orb that you released during your upgrade yesterday, which covered all of China, many of their level 10 ability users also upgraded to level 11. However, the impact was not the same for all bases. The closer a base was to our Dawn City, the greater the impact of that colorful orb, and the more ability users upgraded overnight."
After hearing their good news, Li Chenglong said seriously, "Although the number of Level 11 ability users has increased significantly, you must also warn the entire army not to be arrogant. The strength that the aliens have shown so far is probably less than one-fifth of what they have. We must be prepared for a protracted war and a tough battle. Moreover, after defeating the Asian campaign commander-in-chief, Arales, the aliens will definitely take action, and the battles that follow will be even more dangerous."
Zheng Yong, Feng Tian, Qi Guoan, and the others nodded in agreement. After chatting for a while, Li Chenglong went to the Dawn Army Hospital, which treated wounded soldiers. He had come to test the life energy he had gained from the G-Crystal after reaching level 13. Based on his understanding of life energy, he believed it could achieve miraculous effects such as limb regeneration.
The Dawn Army Hospital is not very large, because there are many level 11 and 10 wood-type ability users in the Dawn Army, as well as some water-type ability users with healing abilities. Most injuries can be treated on the battlefield, and only more serious ones are brought to the hospital.
Li Chenglong entered the hospital, greeted the staff, and then, accompanied by the hospital director and vice director, began to tour the various wards. The wards at Dawn Military Hospital were all luxury rooms, each with only two beds and all the necessary amenities.
Someone shouted, "The commander is here! The commander is here!" Immediately, many wounded soldiers emerged, some skipping and jumping, others supported by nurses, and still others pushed out in wheelchairs. The hospital director said, "Commander, we have a lot of disabled soldiers here. In just a few days of fighting the aliens, we've admitted over 1000 disabled soldiers, and more than 100 are still hospitalized. Among them are those with superpowers, but most are ordinary soldiers. We do our best to treat those who can have their limbs preserved, but some soldiers arrived already like this, with no limbs to be found, so we can only provide general treatment."
Li Chenglong nodded, expressing his understanding of the hospital's efforts. Seeing the condition of these soldiers, he believed the hospital had done its best. Li Chenglong walked over and shook hands with each of the heroes, exchanging brief greetings. Some of the soldiers had lost both arms; Li Chenglong first gave them a solemn salute, then patted them on the shoulder.
After shaking hands and exchanging greetings with each soldier, Li Chenglong stood in the middle of the group and expressed his gratitude and respect to all the soldiers who fought bravely in the battle. He also thanked all the medical staff of the Dawn Army Hospital for providing the soldiers with the highest level of medical care.
Having informed Yunlan beforehand, Li Chenglong ate lunch with the soldiers at the hospital, taking the opportunity to check on the hospital's food service. He was quite satisfied with the result; his sudden arrival meant the hospital hadn't had time to prepare, indicating that the delicious and nutritious meals were what the hospital usually provided. He also asked some soldiers, who all expressed satisfaction with their hospital life but longed to return to the army and be with their brothers.
