Originally, their line of work was actually quite leisurely.
Even if I have to work the night shift, there's not much to do; I just sleep somewhere else.
Because the beds they could lie on were made extremely comfortable.
No matter how comfortable or how soundly you sleep, you'll be jolted awake by such a sudden alarm, leaving you bewildered and frozen in place.
In the past, satellites would occasionally lose contact, but we wouldn't call it that.
It's nighttime in Yan Country, but it's daytime in many other countries, around the time when people are just starting their workday.
Yan Kingdom will not admit it; that was intentional.
Some people have already arrived, while others are still on their way, but the alarm can be heard right at the gate.
Some people were taken aback and started running frantically, but they couldn't do anything at all.
In fact, the alarm sound of a single satellite is very short, less than a minute, before it is detonated by the halo.
However, satellites are always at varying distances from planets, so their destruction occurs at different times. As a result, the alarms sounded one after another, lasting for several minutes.
But what can you do in just a few minutes?
Not to mention those still on the road, even those at the monitoring center are not sure what they can do.
Satellites are in space, after all, and even if they discover a major problem, they are helpless.
Even a few minutes might not be enough to completely get out of the monitoring center. What can we do?
I didn't dare touch the buttons on the desktop, and could only stare blankly at the chaotic scene.
"Bang!" The door was kicked open with great force.
The visitor rushed in, saying frantically, "Quickly check the last images the satellite sent back. Also, check the space station and see what happened!"
With such a large commotion and such a wide area, even if the space station is far away, it should be able to see the satellite's situation!
Even if you can't see it, there are still detection instruments!
"It's easy to say. Can you just call a space station anywhere? How much energy does it consume per use? You need to apply for permission..."
"Then hurry up! Do you have any other ideas?"
If we do nothing, what will we have to say about it later?
Having something to do but being unable to do it, and not doing it at all, are two different things.
At least, if I still can't avoid taking the blame, then this blame will be lighter.
In Yan Kingdom, everything was so peaceful and beautiful.
Because many people pay attention to the night sky, they can see almost any slight change.
Under the black sky, any unusual light was very noticeable.
Among those waiting were people who urgently needed to urinate, and others who had other symptoms.
"I wonder when the fireworks will start. I'll go grab a couple of cans of beer first..."
The person who spoke had just stood up when they felt a soft light flash above their head.
Everyone was taken aback and subconsciously looked up, only to find large patches of white light appearing against the black background. It was not dazzling, but rather soft and gentle. It did not turn the night into day, but rather shimmered with a magical brilliance.
Especially some streamers who agreed to wait together and then livestreamed, were originally chatting with the audience and making wild guesses.
The camera was always pointed at the starry sky.
Someone had just made a quick escape to pee, but then something suddenly happened, and everyone's eyes widened.
"Holy crap, is that... the aurora borealis?"
"This way of presentation is indeed very similar, but have you ever seen a white aurora?"
"But no one can guarantee it won't happen! All sorts of colors can appear, right? White is a color too."
"That's right, transparency is also a color!"
"Didn't the trailer say there would be a spectacular fireworks display?"
"Is the nation really this romantic? Is it just to remind us that this is a miraculous celestial phenomenon, unlike anything ever seen before in history?"
"I'm right at the door now, you can see me, coordinates..."
"I can see the coordinates too..."
Perhaps everyone wanted to witness such a wonder with their own eyes, so many people put aside their phones and came outside to look up.
Even the streamers who had rushed to pee earlier, upon returning, disregarded the camera and began to enjoy the show on their own.
Hmm, I need to take out my phone and record this properly.
I don't know who started revealing their coordinates first, but many people are also posting their locations.
Then it was discovered that it might actually be visible to the entire nation.
What? Other countries can't see it?
I'm sorry, Liu Yun had Aqi use Yan Guo's satellites and some kind of advanced refraction technology to "blind" the sky outside of Yan Guo, so it's normal that you can't see these lights.
Although Liu Yun didn't expect the official national account to play like this, and although there were signs of showing off, she still had to help them since they were one of their own.
Since it's supposed to be a grand fireworks display for the entire nation, it certainly can't be allowed to be shared by people from other countries.
This is the unique sense of happiness that belongs to the people of Yan.
Before long, under this white aurora, "stars" would occasionally appear, suddenly magnified and extremely bright, just like fireworks, shining brightly for a few seconds before disappearing.
Here it lights up, there it lights up, and some even leave a trail, turning into shooting stars.
Although there was no large-scale meteor shower, the aurora borealis created a breathtaking spectacle, with meteors scattered here and there.
"Incredible, it's so beautiful!"
"It was truly a spectacular fireworks display that I never imagined."
"I don't like white at all, but I've never thought white was so beautiful."
"Are there any experts who can explain what this astronomical phenomenon is?"
Experts: ...They were just admiring it; it wasn't really research.
I'm completely baffled!
Can you please not ask?
They don't know the answer to this question; they can't even come up with one.
"I'm so glad I'm in Yan Kingdom right now."
"That's absolutely true. I just contacted a friend abroad, and nothing happened."
"I even contacted a friend at a foreign border, who couldn't see it at first glance. He said... once you step into the Yan Kingdom's territory, you'll be able to see it. Isn't that amazing...?"
When this topic came up, many people were surprised and asked questions, while others were confirming and discussing it repeatedly. After all, aren't we seeing the same sky both inside and outside the national border?
Why can you see it once you cross the line?
That won't work outside.
Someone contacted a friend who happened to be on the border and jokingly suggested an idea: what would you see if you had one foot outside and one foot inside?
The answer is that one side is picturesque, while the other is calm and peaceful.
It's as if there's a transparent wall along the border, separating the inside from the outside into two worlds.
The crowd gasped in surprise; no one had believed it before.
But someone filmed what they saw, and if the phone had been positioned right on the boundary line, it would have captured the sky on both sides.
The video is proof; you have to believe it whether you believe it or not.
"I used to think that the internet in Yan was a barrier, but I never thought that I could actually feel it in reality."
"Could it be that the Yan Kingdom really has a protective barrier?"
"Good idea. Is this light some kind of good thing that we're preventing from flowing out?"
"Hey buddy/sister, what are you doing at the border? Are there really that many Yan people? What strange things happen, and someone just happens to be there?"
