At 5 am, Wang Piyu, deputy director of the Changhai County Natural Resources Affairs Service Center, sets out by patrol boat for Fantuozi Island, a core breeding site for Chinese egrets in the Changshan Archipelago, Northeast China's Liaoning Province. The island has no permanent residents.
About 100 meters from the island, Wang turns off the engine and reminds accompanying researchers to keep their voices low to avoid disturbing the nesting birds.
Stepping onto the island, they walk along paths covered with vines. Scattered across the rocky slopes are nests measuring 40 to 50 centimeters in diameter. Inside, fluffy chicks huddle together among soft grass woven into nests, while adult birds perch high in the trees, watching cautiously.
"This was not what the island looked like 10 years ago," Wang recalled. "People used to collect eggs here, and coastal aquaculture polluted the tidal flats. Many parts of the island were bare, leaving little vegetation for birds to nest."
The recovery of Changshan Archipelago, however, has turned the remote archipelago into an important link in global conservation efforts.
At the 48th session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee in Busan, South Korea, the boundary modification of the Migratory Bird Sanctuaries along the Coast of Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf of China was approved, officially adding the Changshan Archipelago to the World Heritage site. 
The expansion further strengthens the integrity of the serial natural heritage site, following a previous update in 2024, and highlights China's efforts to integrate coastal ecosystem conservation, according to the National Forestry and Grassland Administration.
Behind the World Heritage recognition lies years of conservation work involving local authorities and island residents.

Located in the northern Yellow Sea off Dalian, the Changshan Archipelago sits along a key route of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway, providing an essential stopover where tens of millions of migratory birds replenish their energy during their journeys across the Bohai Sea.
The newly added area covers more than 4,900 hectares and is home to more than 140 recorded bird species, including the Chinese egret and black-faced spoonbill, both listed as China's national first-class protected animals.
In 2015, more than 300 Chinese egrets arrived in Changhai county. After discovering the birds, local authorities introduced a series of protective measures, including establishing patrol teams and installing remote monitoring systems to reduce human disturbance.
However, the growing bird population also created new challenges.
Less than half of Fantuozi Island was covered by shrubs, which serve as the nesting grounds for the egrets. Additionally, the island's poor soil and acidification caused by years of accumulated bird droppings had led to the withering and death of some shrubs in recent years.
From 2022, the county launched an ecological restoration project, replacing surface soil with fertile earth and planting more than 2,200 shrubs.
The efforts helped restore the breeding habitat. The number of Chinese egrets on the island has since recovered, with this year's population estimated at about 3,500, including around 1,500 adults and nearly 2,000 chicks, according to Lü Yongquan, director of Changhai county's natural resources bureau.
"Chinese egrets are highly sensitive to water quality, vegetation and human disturbance. Their return to breed here is a sign that the marine ecosystem has recovered and is thriving," Lü told the Global Times.
From fishermen to guardians
Conservation in Changhai is not only carried out by authorities. Local communities have also gradually become part of the protection network.
Authorities have expanded public awareness campaigns and strengthened patrols. Because most of the Changshan Archipelago is uninhabited, drones, fixed-point infrared cameras, and on-site inspections are used to monitor the islands and reefs around the clock. 
Many fishermen who once relied on the sea for their livelihoods now help protect it.
During the peak breeding season from April to July, regular marine patrols are carried out to protect nesting sites and prevent illegal egg collection and habitat damage. Local bird conservation groups and research institutions have also joined the efforts, while fishermen have taken on new roles as volunteer guardians of the islands. 
Across Changhai county, many fishermen now actively participate in coastal patrols to help protect the archipelago's biodiversity.
For Li Qingsen, a 50-year-old island native and member of the county's forest fire brigade, protecting the birds has become a way of life.
From spring to autumn, 20 team members take turns staying on Fantuozi Island in pairs to protect the birds from disturbance.
Life on the 0.08-square-kilometer island is far from easy. There are no freshwater sources or docks. Patrol workers carry large barrels of water and wade ashore from boats anchored offshore. Instant noodles are often their main food because they require little preparation and some water.
Their work is closely tied to the seasonal cycle of the birds. Each April, thousands of Chinese egrets arrive in the archipelago from Southeast Asia to breed and rear their young, staying until early September before migrating south for the winter. 
At present, young egrets are already practicing flight above the treetops. By autumn, they will join their parents in a southward migration.
For Wang, who has spent half of his life guarding Fantuozi Island, the World Heritage recognition is both a homecoming for the birds and a reward for years of protection. "Now, it is a home for the birds, and a reward for all the years we have spent protecting it."
。你始终处于一种“恰到好处”的紧张感中。允许玩家自定义组装职业的“专家（Specialist）”职业是本作的一大亮点。詹姆斯·卡梅隆曾将《异形2》的导演剪辑版描述为“四十英里的烂路”。对于这部紧张激烈且具有开创性的科幻动作电影来说，这是一个恰当的比喻，此后的几乎所有同类作品都对其有所借鉴。疯狂的是，许多后来成为《异形2》标志性的元素在院线版中并不存在：里普利的女儿、自动哨戒炮的整个序列、哈德逊关于自己是“终极硬汉”的独白……这些都没有。但如果失去了这些元素以及其他一切，就无法想象《异形2》及其构建的世界。要达到这样的高度压力很大，多年来许多游戏都尝试过，成功程度各异。Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 是最新的尝试者。但那个老生常谈的问题依然存在：这会是一场正面硬刚，还是又一次“虫群狩猎”？在体验了 Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 开场任务约四个小时后，我可以肯定地说，这是一场（令人满意的）虫群狩猎。

二 | 虽然这是续作，但你不必玩过 Aliens: Fireteam Elite 也能理解发生了什么。背景设定如下：奋进号（USS Endeavor）收到了一名看起来病得很重的皮尔斯博士发来的信号，指向 LV-558——一个被异形攻占的维兰德-汤谷公司采矿殖民地。海军陆战队派出了精锐小队“女妖小队”去控制局面，但他们全部失踪了。

三 | 你的陆战队员被调往奋进号，负责把他们带回家并查明到底发生了什么。这是经典的《异形》桥段。

四 | 第一部 Aliens: Fireteam Elite 并不太注重故事，但本作加大了这方面的权重，我认为目前效果不错。我很喜欢猛禽（Raptor），这位运输机飞行员讲的笑话简直和我岳父一样冷；还有扳手（Wrench），他既是飞船技师，又负责维护你的枪械，还会分享一些关于鸟类的冷知识。在与希普将军（General Shipp，奋进号指挥官一个非常有趣的谐音名字）进行了简短的“这是你的任务，去执行吧”对话后，你和猛禽前往行星表面，寻找失踪的女妖小队成员：柯上尉、派珀中尉和飞船生化人埃丝特。在单人游玩时，我的四名由电脑控制的生化人队友在割草异形、救助倒地的我（以及互相救助）方面表现得相当出色，总体来说非常给力。

五 | 其中一个甚至还戴着一顶酷炫的牛仔帽。

六 | 在选择职业时——我选了决斗者（Duelist），配备了标准的脉冲步枪和用于近战的散弹枪——是时候降落了。Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 核心是一款合作游戏，但我这次预览是单人完成的。我的小队不是由其他玩家组成，而是由我和三个来自 异形：隔离 那种怪异、惨白的生化人组成。这是 Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 的重大变化之一：小队规模从三人增加到了四人。这对于 AI 队友来说总是很棘手，但我必须说，他们在割草异形、救助倒地队友以及提供帮助方面表现得相当出色。其中一个生化人甚至还戴着一顶酷炫的牛仔帽。落地后，Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 进入了熟悉的节奏。我们在殖民地中穿行，击毙异形，寻找线索，通过通讯器与猛禽交谈，而我的陆战队员则时不时冒出几句瓦斯奎兹和哈德逊的经典台词。你对《异形》游戏所期待的一切都在这里：从运动探测器的乒乒声到异形本身的尖叫声，视觉和听觉体验都非常到位。如果你集中注意力，就能在异形侧翼包抄前做好准备，但如果你不够小心或被包围了，你可能根本顾不上看它们，只能拼命求生。Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 最出色的设计之一是它强迫你管理有限的资源。虽然弹药不算极度匮乏，你的技能——比如决斗者的碎片手雷和增强型散弹枪，如果用它们击杀敌人，冷却时间会缩短——也不容小觑，但游戏会一次性向你投送大量敌人，我经常需要依靠拾取医疗包和弹药箱才能活下来。Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 还确保你永远不会感到真正的轻松。随着我深入寻找柯上尉，我们了解到维兰德-汤谷公司又在拿异形做实验了。真让人“意外”。

七 | 虽然剧情不令人意外，但我时刻感到不安全。

八 | 你必须时刻警惕威胁，管理弹药，选择正确的武器，或者在有条件的情况下装填针对性的特殊弹药。事实证明异形非常怕火。但问题始终是什么时候用、用在谁身上。

九 | 奔跑者（Runners）倒下得很快，所以通常不值得在它们身上浪费高价值消耗品（如手雷、地雷或特殊弹药）……至少大部分时间是这样。但它们成群结队且速度极快，很容易让你陷入重围。然后是那些大家伙：战士（Warriors）会把你抓起来尝试用内巢牙咬你；或者是打完就跑的无人机（Drones，类似初代《异形》中的形象），它们从阴影中跃出并在遭到攻击时撤退；还有潜伏者（Prowlers），这种大型红色异形会扑向你。在管理有限资源的同时为每个威胁找到正确的对策非常有意思，而且 Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 并不害怕改变节奏。关卡后期的一个片段要求我的小队争分夺秒地重启大气处理器，并在等待过程中在安全屋抵御异形。任务以我们救出柯上尉结束，但我们也必须在撤离时顶住潮水般的异形进攻。这考验了我们拥有的一切资源（由于是第一关，资源其实并不多），但过程非常刺激。回到奋进号后，我与柯上尉交谈——她是一个对下属深切关怀的铁血军人——并与其余船员碰了头。

十 | 我的决斗者职业积累了一些经验，升级了一些枪支（还给脉冲步枪装了鼓形弹匣），但我还不确定自己想成为什么样的“终极硬汉”，于是我决定在寻找派珀的任务中换成手持智能机枪的掠夺者（Marauder）。事实证明这是一个极其英明的决定。没错，用散弹枪轰杀异形很爽，但智能机枪能瞬间粉碎小型敌人，并且在配合提升压制力的专长时，非常适合阻挡大型敌人。

十一 | 哦，肩扛式火箭和爆裂炮也非常酷。这个关卡明显更短且更紧凑。我们追踪派珀的踪迹（其中有一段关于她躲在壁橱里的非常幽默的对话），但这次我们面对的不只是异形，虽然我确实被几只潜伏者扑倒了。维兰德-汤谷公司有他们自己的生化人，而且他们并不欢迎你。

十二 | 这与对抗异形的战斗节奏形成了很好的互补。除非你在防守固定阵地，否则你必须保持移动，因为异形太快了。而对抗生化人则需要更具战术性的方法，通常意味着利用掩体，并在他们靠近时盲射。此外你必须小心，因为他们有时会爆炸。最有趣的是当生化人和异形相遇时，你可以坐山观虎斗，或者选择加入其中一方。

十三 | 任务在一段狭窄空间的防守战后结束。

十四 | Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 在我的体验过程中经常使用这种设计，但它在主题上很契合，且每次都有所不同，所以我并不介意。此外，这次我拿到了一个可部署的哨戒炮，当强力异形出现且我快没弹药时，它真的帮了大忙。脱险后，是时候查明维兰德-汤谷到底在这里干什么了。任务从搜救变成了寻找线索。我们就像这科幻版的“史酷比狗”小队，只是手里拿着脉冲步枪。我们穿梭于各个终端，听取音频日志并拼凑真相。事实证明，公司不只是在玩弄异形，他们还将发现的东西用于人体实验，这让开场视频中皮尔斯博士的样貌有了更令人毛骨悚然的解释。这一次我选择了机械师（Machinist），因为我太喜欢哨戒炮了，这个职业让我能部署炮塔并召唤一个小无人机。起初我担心在频繁移动中这行不通，但机械师的炮塔和无人机要么移动方便，要么冷却时间相对较短。配合我那把可靠的改良脉冲步枪和一把只要不过热就无需换弹的等离子步枪，我简直无往不利。当关底防守战到来时，我所有的额外装备都派上了用场。但这让我开始思考：我真的很喜欢智能机枪，但也想保留我的哨戒炮。

十五 | 我好奇是否有办法兼顾两者，于是我开始研究职业系统。就在那时，我发现了专家（Specialist），这是 Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 的另一个重大加入。作为专家，我可以装备几乎任何我在其他职业中解锁的技能、专长或武器。于是我装备了脉冲步枪和智能机枪，贴上了我解锁的涂装，选择了无人机和哨戒炮作为技能，并装备了一些已经获得的增加生命值的专长。终于，我拥有了理想的职业。最后一个任务进展得非常顺利，直到意外发生。我们找到并救出了埃丝特，哨戒炮和智能机枪的组合轻松解决了生化人和异形。但有一个问题：我经常耗尽弹药。幸好手枪拥有无限子弹；我今天不需要靠“垃圾话”来杀敌。尽管困难重重，我以为我们胜券在握。我们从一个高台上击退了成群的异形，终点就在眼前，结果我在尝试拆除两个正在疯狂扫射我们的敌方哨戒炮时倒下了。事实证明，你倒地的次数是有上限的，超过之后就会直接死亡！原来我血条上方那个逐渐填满的红色小条就是这个意思。Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 深刻理解了《异形》的精髓，也理解了卡梅隆所构想的那种“四十英里的烂路”。我本可以就此作罢，毕竟已经是凌晨两点了。

十六 | 但我想要完成它。于是我增加了一些升级，再次尝试。

十七 | 这一次我在弹药管理上更加小心，用手枪对付弱小敌人，当我们再次突击那些哨戒炮时，我把它们都干掉了。然后我们必须抵御一群比我之前见过的任何规模都要大的异形潮。这耗尽了我们所有的一切：地雷、无人机、我的哨戒炮、我在地上捡到的另一个炮塔、特殊弹药、多次往返弹药箱，还有不小的运气——当一个巨大的异形精英把我抓起来准备用内巢牙“亲吻”我的额头时，我真的以为自己死定了。但我们最终挺过来了。这种感觉太棒了。没能和朋友一起玩这次预览是否有些遗憾？有一点。但如果我能和 AI 队友 Alpha、Beta、Gamma 玩得这么开心，我能想象我和哥们儿一起玩会更有趣。Aliens: Fireteam Elite 2 看起来是那种非常适合在懒散的周日午后与朋友一起消磨几个小时的游戏。

十八 | 它抓住了《异形》的神韵，理解了卡梅隆所设想的那段艰辛旅程。作为一款合作游戏，它或许不会改变世界——《异形》系列本身已经做到了这一点。但它是重返那个世界的绝佳借口，我渴望看到 LV-558 还有什么在等待着我们。
