The world began to enter a quiet period once again. Even in regions previously plagued by war, both sides simultaneously shrank their defensive lines, consciously tempering the scale of the conflict. They understood that if a true clash between the two titans were to occur, these localized struggles would be nothing more than petty squabbles.
Meanwhile, in Xia Country, things remained in full swing. Just as Lin's Technology had promised, within three days, the entire national power grid was connected to Controlled Nuclear Fusion. Beyond clean energy sources like wind, solar, and hydro, fossil fuels—oil, coal, and gas—were all gradually being phased out. Xia Country had officially entered a 100% clean energy era.
Not only that, but surrounding countries also began igniting their own Controlled Nuclear Fusion reactors. The world was shocked; Xia Country had not bluffed—they had truly achieved it. Nighttime satellite imagery proved it: Xia Country remained as bright as day, with virtually every populated area fully illuminated—brighter than ever before. Even North Korea, previously a dark void, began to show vast patches of light, a stark contrast to its former state.
