Background

Jiang Yan Hai transmigrated into the world at the age of eight and grew up as an orphan in a rural village, where he met Cheng Cai and Xu Sanduo. Retaining an adult mind and driven by a desire to return to his original reality, he accelerated through school with the support of a primary-school principal. By eighteen, he had completed three degrees at Peking University. 1 2

He entered the military and was assigned to the Iron Fist Regiment's logistics farm. While there, the Red Star Engine awakened during extreme burpee training, beginning the rapid physical growth that transformed him from a poor recruit into a standout candidate for the Sharpshooter Fourth Company. 2 4 5

Appearance

Jiang Yan Hai is a tall, athletic young man with short hair, defined musculature, and the bearing of a trained soldier. His extensive weapons practice has left thick calluses on both shoulders. 59 187

• Stands approximately 1.8 meters tall. 59 604
• Has highly defined chest, abdominal, and shoulder muscles. 187
• Is considered notably handsome, even before adopting disguises. 123 266
• Can alter his posture, voice, demeanor, makeup, and silhouette well enough to pass as a woman under the identity Jiang Ling. 59 65 965

Personality

Jiang Yan Hai is highly self-disciplined, analytical, and goal-oriented. He repeatedly trains or studies without supervision, treating personal improvement as a constant obligation rather than an assignment. His superiors recognize that his perseverance—not only his intelligence—sets him apart. 2 52 842

He is confident in his abilities but generally rejects praise and special treatment. When called a hero, he instead credits comrades who died in service. He also refuses to pursue international recognition for its own sake, valuing recognition from his own country above awards. 45 484 970

His operational persona can be cold and manipulative when necessary. He uses fear, deception, and psychological pressure against hostile targets, but he draws a line around civilians and innocents. He has repeatedly risked missions or resources to protect people in danger, including Ivan and Natasha. 224 310 701 704

Away from operations, Jiang Yan Hai is thoughtful and protective toward Li Ruo Bai. He values privacy, ordinary life, and the peaceful civilian world that his military service helps preserve. 992 1164 1337

Story Role / Major Arcs

Rise from the Iron Fist Regiment

Jiang Yan Hai begins as an overlooked recruit assigned to a pig farm, then shocks Fan Tian Lei and the regiment through extreme self-training. His physical recovery, weapon handling, and marksmanship earn him entry into the Sharpshooter Fourth Company. 3 5 7 9

During the Wolf Fang exercise, he uses stealth, sniping, and the Coffin Board Skill to scout independently, counter enemy surveillance, and establish himself as far more capable than a normal recruit. 24 25 32 36

Information Warfare and Wolf Fang

After exposing major military-system vulnerabilities and completing extensive improvements, Jiang Yan Hai is transferred to the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade as an information-security consultant. He receives a First Class Merit and an early promotion to Captain. 45 50 52

He subsequently proves his utility in counterterrorism and law-enforcement operations, including the capture of Scorpion and the dismantling of hostile networks through surveillance control, infiltration, sniping, and command planning. 110 118 199 223

Undercover Operations

Using the identities Jiang Ling, Bai San, Third Master Bai, and others, Jiang Yan Hai infiltrates criminal and espionage networks. His disguises allow him to manipulate targets, secure intelligence, and coordinate arrests without exposing his military identity. 55 75 256 276 292

His work expands into overseas operations against drug traffickers, terrorists, assassins, and intelligence organizations. Though he adopts ruthless criminal personas, he repeatedly protects civilians and refuses cooperation with those who harm innocents. 310 595 601 704

Pilot, Researcher, and Instructor

He is eventually promoted to Senior Colonel and formally appointed Dark Blade's Brigade Commander. 1524

Star Gate and Interworld Operations

His role expands beyond combat: he oversees interworld logistics, technological development, alliance-building, and strategic defenses against threats from multiple worlds. 1037 1169 1369 1556
