Starflare Fighter cut through the sky. Inside the fighter plane, Lin Yi was sitting in the cockpit. He thought for a moment and then ordered, "Starflare, help me connect General Staff-Zhou Donglai."
The communication system responded immediately, and soon the voice of Zhou Donglai sounded in the cockpit, "Comrade Lin Yi?"
Lin Yi was not polite and went straight to the point. "Chief of Staff Zhou, I am heading to Dragon Abyss Command Center now. I expect to arrive in 30 minutes. I need to meet Li Commander."
There was silence on the other end of the communication for a moment, and Zhou Donglai's voice was somewhat solemn. "Of course you can see Li Commander directly, but Li Commander is ill." He paused and said in a tactful tone, "The time should not be too long, he needs to rest."
Lin Yi nodded. Although Zhou Donglai couldn't see his movements, the affirmation in his tone had been conveyed. "I heard about this matter, and I came here to solve it."
Zhou Donglai's heart moved, and he keenly captured the deep meaning of Lin Yi's words, but he didn't ask any more questions, and just solemnly said, "Okay, I will help you arrange it."

Dragon Abyss Underground Command Center, Medical Area.
This place is completely different from the intense and busy life of Command Center. The air is filled with the smell of disinfectant. There are heavy explosion-proof doors on both sides of the corridor, and behind each door is an independent medical unit.
Outside the deepest ward, two armed guards stood at attention, scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes.
In the ward, Li Zhenguo was lying on the hospital bed. His originally strong body looked extremely thin now.
The so-called illness comes like a mountain. This old Commander, who once dominated the battlefield, has now lost a lot of weight. Only his eyes are still as sharp as before.
Zhou Donglai knocked on the door softly, then pushed the door open and entered with very light steps.
He walked to the hospital bed and whispered, "Commander, Comrade Lin Yi want to see you."
Li Zhenguo Although his physical condition has declined significantly, when he heard this, he still had a smile on his face, "Oh? He is coming? Is there any good news or any new ideas?"
Zhou Donglai nodded, with a bit of excitement in his tone. "Yes, Comrade Lin Yi attacked Abyssal Beast two days ago and killed Star Core level."
"Star Core level?"
Li Zhenguo's eyes suddenly lit up. He struggled to sit up. Zhou Donglai quickly stepped forward to help him, "This is a good thing, haha. Since Comrade Lin Yi has been able to kill Star Core level, maybe it won't be long before we can take action against those Abyssal Beast in the main nest."
The old man's laughter echoed in the ward. Although he was out of breath, he was still heroic, "Unfortunately, I don't think I will see the day when Lin Yi kills the main nest."
At this point, Li Zhenguo's expression became serious. "It just so happens that he didn't come originally, so I invited him to come. I have to explain some matters clearly to you two while I can still manage, to ensure a smooth transition and no trouble."
"While Comrade Lin Yi hasn't arrived yet, let me say a few words to you first." He looked at Zhou Donglai with a deep gaze. "Donglai, times have changed. The future is the era of source energy, and our ideological positioning must change. From now on, we must mainly assist Comrade Lin Yi to protect it."
"Hey, what are you talking about?" Zhou Donglai smiled and tried to lighten the atmosphere, "Didn't you always say that Lin Yi is Child of Miracles? With Child of Miracles here, you don't have to be so pessimistic."
Li Zhenguo also laughed, with a bit of relief in his smile, "Yes, Child of Miracles"
The two chatted for a few more words, then Zhou Donglai glanced at his watch. "Time Gap We are running out, I have to go out to pick him up first."
Soon, Zhou Donglai came from the deepest Medical Area to the apron outside Dragon Abyss Command Center.
Although he had a smile on his face, there was still a hint of worry in his brows.
In the distance, a dark blue light spot quickly enlarged. The optical camouflage on the surface of Starflare Fighter gradually faded away, revealing the streamlined fuselage. The source energy engine made a low hum, landed slowly in an elegant manner, and finally came to a complete stop.
The hatch opened silently, and Lin Yi stepped out.
He was still wearing the simple combat uniform, but the aura emanating from his body made the air around him freeze.
As soon as Zhou Donglai saw Lin Yi, he went up to him.
"Comrade Lin Yi, welcome to Dragon Abyss." Zhou Donglai made an invitation gesture, "Li Commander is already waiting for you."
Lin Yi nodded in greeting, "Sorry to trouble you."
The two walked side by side into Command Center. When the officers and soldiers along the way saw the two, they all stood at attention and saluted.
Their eyes showed not only respect for Zhou Donglai, but also admiration for Lin Yi.
The elevator descended slowly, and Zhou Donglai suddenly spoke, "Comrade Lin Yi, Li Commander's physical condition is more serious than it appears. The doctor said that this is a decline in organ function caused by long-term fatigue and age."
Lin Yi didn't say much, just replied, "Yeah."
The tone was very light, but Zhou Donglai could feel the confidence contained in it, which increased the expectations in his heart.
In fact, Lin Yi didn't think so much at all. He just felt that it was coming soon. It would be more intuitive to wait and see the effect for Zhou Donglai.
The elevator door opened and the two of them walked towards Medical Area. They arrived outside the ward amidst the salutes of the guards along the way.
Zhou Donglai opened the door and the two entered the ward.
Li Zhenguo is not lying down, but leaning against the bed.
"Comrade Lin Yi, you're here." Li Zhenguo said with a smile. Although his voice was weak, it was still cheerful.
Lin Yi walked to the bed and his eyes stayed on the old man's face for a moment. "Li Commander, I have brought a solution to your physical condition."
Li Zhenguo A flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Oh? What method?"
Lin Yi didn't speak, but his thoughts moved slightly, and a dark purple Spirit Shine Crystal with golden clouds floated out of his belt.
"This is a Spirit Shine Crystal that Star Core level Abyssal Beast dropped." Lin Yi said, Soul Power pressed the crystal lightly.
"Crack!"
The crystal shattered in response, turning into bits of starlight and dissipating in the air. In the place of the original crystal, a potion emitting soft blue light slowly emerged, suspended in mid-air.
He guessed what kind of person Li Zhenguo was after just thinking about it for a moment.
He asked, "Have you heard about my health before?"
Lin Yi smiled and did not answer the question directly.
Instead, he talked about something else.
"When I was cleaning a large nest, I got a Source Energy Evolution Fluid. However, you have to get started with the source energy before you can use it. You can directly reach Stardust level."
"But the disadvantage is that unless the source energy control is raised to the normal Stardust level level, it will be difficult to practice on your own. That one, I gave it to Nie Chang."
"At that time, I thought that according to the rules of items dropped from crystals, there might be evolutionary fluids with better effects in more advanced crystals, either by lowering the threshold or making the effect stronger."
"Later I heard about your story, so I decided to try my luck. Now it seems that my luck is really good."
"It's really good luck"
Li Zhenguo's eyes were very complicated. He silently repeated in his heart, "Fortunately, nothing happened to him."
Then, Li Zhenguo coughed lightly and said, "Comrade Lin Yi, based on my understanding of you, if I was absolutely sure, I would have dealt with Leader level Abyssal Beast, right? So, in fact, Star Core level should be close to the limit."
He sighed and continued, "I don't think you should take risks. Without me Li Zhenguo and Comrade Donglai, you are irreplaceable. You are more important to Xia Country than me."
