In reality, Lin Bai had always held a deep fascination for the Seven Star Lantern. After all, as a visitor from Earth, he had only encountered the legendary tales of the Seven Star Lantern in the classic novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms." In the story, it was said that Zhuge Liang attempted to borrow life from heaven using the Seven Star Lantern. However, due to a series of unfortunate coincidences, the lantern was extinguished, leading to his failure in borrowing life.
Zhuge Liang's failure was partly due to Wei Yan accidentally intruding into the camp and causing the wind to blow out the lantern. On another level, it was also a matter of fate; heaven had no intention of allowing him to extend his life. Did this mean that as long as the Seven Star Lantern had been extinguished, Zhuge Liang could have successfully borrowed life as he wished?
What was even more critical was that there were no detailed descriptions of the Seven Star Lantern on Earth. It had never existed there, and even on Blue Star, it was merely hearsay! But now, he finally had the chance to exchange for comprehensive information about this mysterious object from the system. How could this not make one feel an overwhelming excitement?
In this tranquil moment of silence, with night deepening around him, Lin Bai tightly closed his eyes. His expression appeared calm and serene, yet within his mind, he could hardly contain his excitement. He eagerly opened the system store, focusing intently on that familiar entry.
[Seven Star Lantern Detailed Examination: A mysterious artifact with flickering flames, carrying hopes of extending life. Can extend life for seven days upon exchange; one-time use. Required reputation for exchange: ten thousand points.]
In the next moment, without a hint of hesitation, he resolutely chose to exchange! The relevant information about the Seven Star Lantern instantly surged forth like a tide. Lin Bai barely needed to read more than a few words.
His heart felt as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer, shaking him to the core. It turned out that it involved those profound and mysterious things! The Seven Star Lantern was an artifact of extreme mystery. Its core operating principle was intricately connected to the mysterious rays from the depths of the universe.
The Seven Star Lantern could trigger a very special cosmic ray. When the human body was precisely illuminated by this ray, it could achieve the miraculous effect of prolonging life. However, there was a crucial condition: before the ray reached the human body, the light within the lantern must never extinguish; otherwise, the cosmic ray would fail to lock onto its target. Only by continuously guiding and positioning it until the ray successfully enveloped the person could the goal of prolonging life be achieved.
The Seven Star Lantern first appeared in 3000 BC, and since then, throughout the long passage of time in history, no one had ever successfully utilized it. Now, this incredibly mysterious Seven Star Lantern lay deeply hidden underground in Shannan Province, Hanchen City, with no one able to discover its trace!
At that moment, filled with immense shock and fully focused on reading the complete information about the Seven Star Lantern, a dazzling blue light suddenly burst forth like lightning. In an instant, it penetrated through the hospital room's window, completely enveloping Lin Bai!
The light flashed only for an extremely brief moment. If Lin Bai had not been so shocked that he slightly opened his eyes, he would have never noticed that fleeting beam of light.
In that instant when he was surrounded by this mysterious glow, Lin Bai felt an indescribable warmth wash over him. It was as if countless gentle hands were softly caressing every inch of his skin, every single cell. His body involuntarily trembled slightly—a mix of tension and anticipation—as the light permeated through him.
He could clearly feel a cool current flowing through his body. Wherever it went, the heavy fatigue and weakness that had weighed him down seemed to dissipate little by little. His breathing became smoother, and the heaviness in his chest gradually lifted. However, this wonderful sensation was fleeting.
As the light faded, Lin Bai distinctly felt a sudden alleviation of his physical weakness. But that was all there was to it. He understood very well that this was undoubtedly the tangible benefit brought by exchanging for the Seven Star Lantern. His lifespan had been extended by seven days!
Although seven days wasn't a long time, he now had another clear goal: to do everything in his power to find the real Seven Star Lantern! Initially, when he decided to exchange for information about the Seven Star Lantern, his main purpose was to gain this extra seven days of life. In his original thoughts, the so-called Seven Star Lantern was merely a uniquely designed object, one that people had forcefully imbued with various legends and stories. The related information was nothing more than confirming this point.
However, at this moment, after truly exchanging for the information about the Seven Star Lantern, he was astonished to discover that it actually existed and was genuinely usable! No wonder this information required a staggering amount of reputation points to obtain. Given that this was the case, as long as he could successfully locate the Seven Star Lantern and strictly follow the detailed instructions provided in the information to use it directly, wouldn't he be able to accomplish an astonishing feat that even Zhuge Liang could not achieve?
However, one must be fully prepared in every aspect, leaving no stone unturned. It is imperative not to make the same mistakes as Zhuge Liang.
Lin Bai lay on the hospital bed, his heart racing with excitement. Yet, the entire hospital seemed oblivious to any unusual circumstances.
Indeed, fifty kilometers away, in an obscure valley, alarms suddenly blared, echoing through the skies! The members stationed there were from the Dragon Kingdom's Special Affairs Bureau.
The Special Affairs Bureau, officially known as the Special Affairs Administration, was established ten years ago following the onset of the Awakening Era. Its primary responsibility is to manage all matters related to Exotic Species.
Despite the historical distortions that have occurred, resulting in a limited number of Heroic Spirits that the Dragon Kingdom can awaken, it is important to remember that the Dragon Kingdom is a grand nation with a history spanning five thousand years. Beyond those ancestors who are known due to these distortions, there exist many others who are less renowned but equally significant. Their contributions have been overlooked throughout history, yet this has allowed their legacies to endure and eventually awaken.
The Special Affairs Bureau comprises those individuals who have successfully awakened as Heroic Spirits from the Dragon Kingdom. Among them are soldiers from various units, students still pursuing their education, and diligent farmers. Their common trait is a deep sense of patriotism, willing to selflessly dedicate everything for the Dragon Kingdom!
