Chapter 327: The Power of the 3S Female

Chapter 327: Chapter 327: The Power of the 3S Female

After retracting her spiritual power threads, Shi Lan had He Hanshi check his collapse value again.

He took a look. It had been 12% that morning, but now it was back at 0.

’My wife is amazing, just as I thought. So efficient in such a short amount of time—fast and flawless.’

He couldn’t resist hugging her and praising her over and over. "Lanlan, you’re amazing. My wife is the most outstanding female. I’m so lucky."

’Bai Feng really had it backward. It wasn’t that Shi Lan was lucky to marry me; it was that I was lucky to marry *her*.’

His praise made Shi Lan’s cheeks flush. She buried her head in his chest and mumbled, "Alright, alright, let’s sleep."

"Okay."

He Hanshi agreed, but still lowered his head to press a kiss to her lips. He had intended to be restrained, just a light touch, but with the partner he yearned for lying right beside him, the longing in his heart surged forth like an unstoppable tide.

By the end, Shi Lan’s lips were as red as her cheeks. Only then did He Hanshi pull away, still wanting more.

Shi Lan, panting and pliant, snuggled into the crook of his neck. Her warm breath fanned across his exposed collarbone.

Heat crept up He Hanshi’s ears, and he shifted uncomfortably, bending his knees.

’Lanlan is pregnant.’ He didn’t dare entertain any improper thoughts. He subtly shifted upward until the sensation on his collarbone was less distinct, and the heat coursing through him slowly began to subside.

After the kiss, sleepiness washed over Shi Lan again. Before long, the ragged breaths against his neck softened into even, quiet ones.

He Hanshi held his partner, completely content. The tension in his brow smoothed out, and he closed his eyes, finally at ease.

Ten minutes before the end of their break, his body’s internal clock woke him instinctively.

He had only slept for a short while, but he had to admit his body felt significantly lighter. The fatigue had vanished. He looked down at the female still sleeping peacefully in his arms, placed a gentle kiss on her forehead, and carefully slipped out of bed.

He left a sticky note and then headed out.

However, just a few minutes after he left, Shi Lan woke up.

She subconsciously reached out to his side of the bed. The sheets were still warm; he clearly hadn’t been gone long.

Shi Lan activated her chip to check the time. She was here to work, after all. Not allowing herself to laze about, she immediately climbed out from under the covers.

As she dressed, she glanced around He Hanshi’s room. It was almost too clean and tidy, with very few personal belongings—the unmistakable quarters of a male living alone.

Shi Lan stealthily retrieved the Xia Donghua from her Space Chain. She had dried the flowers to preserve them permanently.

This was the bouquet He Hanshi had given her when he proposed. She couldn’t bring herself to use the flowers from his very first confession.

Freshly picked Xia Donghua lasted a long time, but not as long as dried flowers.

She arranged the Xia Donghua in a vase on his bookshelf. Instantly, the cold, sterile room seemed to gain a spark of life.

Satisfied, Shi Lan walked to the door. Looking up, she saw the sticky note he’d left. It read: "My wife, I’ve gone to work. Message me anytime if you need anything. To get to the medical station, turn left out the door, walk straight past eight doors, and turn right at the very end. If you get lost, remember to stay right where you are and wait for me to come find you."

Shi Lan had been wondering how to get to the medical station. With He Hanshi’s note, she no longer had to worry.

However, when she read the part about getting lost, she had to admit there was a high probability of that happening. After all, if Levito hadn’t shown her around the base last time, she would have been completely disoriented, unable to tell north from south.

The military base had far too many doors, and the corridors all looked remarkably similar, making it easy to get lost.

Thankfully, He Hanshi’s directions were clear. Shi Lan simply followed his instructions, counting the doors as she went.

Even though she still had no idea where she was in the grand scheme of things, she found the medical station without a hitch.

As soon as she arrived, she sent him a message.

Vina was a little surprised to see her. "What are you doing here so early?"

Shi Lan deactivated her chip. "I thought I’d come get more familiar with the work," she said. "And I wanted to ask about the work schedule."

Vina was very pleased with her attitude. "Our break starts around the same time as the males’, but it lasts half an hour longer," she explained. "This is to make sure everyone gets enough rest, recovers their spiritual power, and is in better shape for the afternoon’s duties."

"As for the specific hours, it can be a bit more demanding than a typical hospital. However, the military provides subsidies and bonuses proportional to the workload."

"Working hours are generally 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM, 2:00 PM to 5:30 PM, and then another two hours of work after 6:30 PM. Occasionally, you’ll also have to get up and help with emergencies in the middle of the night."

After hearing the schedule, Shi Lan realized it was quite demanding. On Capital Star, they worked in shifts, so she only worked about six hours a day. And since she was highly efficient and mainly handled Basic Healing, she had no evening duties and could go home at five every afternoon.

Vina added, "We do have doctors on night duty, of course. It’s usually one person a day on a rotating basis. But since you’re a volunteer team, you won’t be scheduled for the night shift. You should be able to rest around 8:30 PM."

"Okay, I understand."

Shi Lan nodded, memorizing the schedule.

Zhang Duo and the other females on the team were staying at the medical station. It had a work bell, and as soon as it rang, they all got up and came out on their own initiative.

Since they had just arrived at the Border Defense Star, Vina had originally planned to let them rest more today. But by the afternoon, the volunteers were already eager to start their posts.

Seeing their enthusiasm, she thanked them for their good intentions and didn’t try to dissuade them. After all, the base really did need more hands.

That afternoon alone, Shi Lan treated four or five people, healing each of them by about 10 points.

Back on Capital Star, the males’ conditions hadn’t been as urgent, and the other females’ healing speeds were much slower. To avoid standing out too much, she had estimated that with her 3S Spiritual Power, she could heal about six or seven points in half an hour. She would then deliberately rest for a few minutes before continuing.

Of course, even that pace had shocked everyone, leading to even more males seeking her out for treatment.

Fortunately, the hospital director had given her a fixed number of appointments each day, screening and assigning the more severe cases to her, which was the only reason she got any time to rest.

Today, however, Shi Lan had slightly increased her healing output, though she still wasn’t revealing her full capabilities like she did with He Hanshi and his men.

Even so, her efficiency shocked every male and female at the station.

The others who had come with Shi Lan remarked with emotion, "Lanlan truly is a gifted 3S Female. Her spiritual power improves so quickly."

The Military Doctors on the Border Defense Star who weren’t familiar with her were dumbfounded. "This... is this the power of a 3S Female? It’s terrifyingly impressive!"

The males who were treated by Shi Lan: ’We envy the Admiral for the thousandth time.’

But there was no denying it: Shi Lan’s arrival had greatly eased the anxiety and pressure on the other Military Doctors. What’s more, after learning about her past comeback story online, these females felt their own fighting spirit rekindle.

They became convinced that they, too, had a chance to grow stronger. They began to see Shi Lan as a role model, occasionally consulting her with questions they had about improving their spiritual power.

Although Shi Lan’s spiritual power was vastly different from everyone else’s, her control over it was far more refined. She could achieve better healing results while consuming less spiritual power. She had her own insights on this matter and shared them generously.

Some of the females tried her methods and exclaimed in amazement that they actually worked.

As an S-level female, Vina in particular was able to grasp more from Shi Lan’s advice. She found that her own healing output over the same period of time increased by an entire point.

And so, the males soon discovered that ever since Shi Lan and her team arrived, all the females in the military had become much more powerful.
