Within the Western Front Command, the silence lasted a full three seconds.
Until the communication officer responsible for monitoring the battlefield spoke in a voice trembling with incredulity:
"Confirmed: energy readings in the uninhabited area have zeroed out! The signal for Blood River Typhon has vanished!"
The entire command room seemed to come alive.
The staff officer with the rank of Major breathed a sigh of relief, the tension in his throat eased.
He grabbed the communication device:
"Have Lieutenant Qin report his status!"
After a few minutes of delay, the communications channel, now fully open, transmitted Qin Shi's steady breathing.
Followed by a calm voice:
"The target has been repelled. Requesting medical support."
The tone was so mundane, as if it were just a routine training session completed.
With the definitive response, the Western Front Command erupted instantly.
"Incredible!"
