Deep in the cave of Bailong Mountain, Xia Chuan stood still, his mind and senses attuned to the surroundings. He overheard the tense exchange of voices, the words carrying through the air like whispers on the wind.
"Group leader, have you found the spatial tunnel that is about to emerge?"
A voice full of concern rang out, cutting through the stillness.
"No, where is it so simple?"
Qin Changqing's voice, calm yet burdened with authority, echoed through the cave. "These spatial tunnels appear randomly. No one can predict their exact location. We only know that it is somewhere near Bailong Mountain Range, but the exact spot remains unknown. Our task is clear: the Special Affairs Bureau must monitor the area ceaselessly. Any movement, no matter how small, must be reported immediately. Not a single clue must slip through our fingers."
His voice carried the weight of responsibility, each word imbued with an authority that seemed to echo across the cavernous expanse of the barren waste land. Every agent present could feel the immense pressure in his tone, as though the very air around them thickened with the gravity of the situation. A spatial tunnel—such a phrase, once relegated to the realms of myth and legend—now had a terrifyingly tangible presence. The potential for disaster it held was beyond comprehension. An invasion from another world, a breach of the very fabric of reality itself—a threat so cataclysmic that the fragile balance they had fought so hard to protect hung by a mere thread.
"A spatial tunnel means not just a breach of our borders," Qin Changqing continued, his voice steady despite the weight bearing down upon them, "but a harbinger of destruction, an enemy beyond our reckoning. We cannot afford the luxury of ignorance, nor the comfort of hesitation. We must be vigilant. Every moment, every second, could decide the fate of countless lives."
"Understood, Group Leader," came the unified response. A chorus of voices, though steady, was laced with a subtle undercurrent of fear. The weight of their mission was not lost on them. It was not just their own lives that hung in the balance, but the lives of millions, perhaps even more. The safety of the realm, its people, and its fragile peace now rested squarely upon their shoulders.
