Apocalypse, then transforming into a magical girl

"What the hell? This thing is completely useless!"

Xia Zhaozhao rubbed her head, which had just been hit by an ice cube. There was no pain on her face, only a great sense of loss.

It was a huge disappointment, like "opening a limited edition figure with high expectations only to find it's a Chinese version of an evil god."

Her expression clearly showed that she had discovered the Pokémon in her hand was completely useless.

"This limp lump of flesh has a combat power of only 0.005! It can't even beat an ordinary person!"

Xiao Lü's gaze shifted back and forth between the deformed fetus beside her and the lively Xia Zhaozhao.

Subsequently, the brain quickly conducted a combat capability assessment of both sides.

The conclusion is that, in this bank building, the only opponent this deformed creature could possibly defeat in a one-on-one, unrestricted fight is probably Xia Zhaozhao in her human form before she transforms.

Moreover, the only chance of winning depends on Xia Zhaozhao suffering from acute hypoglycemia and fainting on the spot after staying up all night for three consecutive days.

Little Green silently complained in her heart.

At this moment, Bai Shuyuan's voice rang out, calmly cutting in:

"That's true. Teratomas, as a special type of aggregate, are not known for their direct physical destructive power."

"Oh! I get it! I need to find a madman to possess me to unleash my true power... No, no! That's too dangerous! Absolutely not!"

Xia Zhaozhao completed the entire process of "a flash of inspiration - proposing a dangerous solution - self-doubt" in almost a second.

Immediately, she waved her hands repeatedly, as if trying to shake off the dangerous thought that had just popped into her brain.

Sasha shook her head and took back her "hand" handle from Xia Zhaozhao's hand.

Then, with her other hand, she pulled out a small, dry, dark green lump from somewhere.

Without a doubt, it's dehydrated chlorella, something even dogs wouldn't eat.

She placed the thing on the ground and then remotely controlled the deformed fetus.

The deformed fetus convulsed violently the moment it received the instruction.

Every piece of flesh that makes up its body seems to be protesting with all its might; it trembles, trying to resist the absolute command from the spiritual realm.

However, the protests were ineffective.

In the end, it gave in and reluctantly moved to begin the tragic act of "gnawing" at the green thing on the ground.

At least, this "hand" also comes with a forced feeding function.

Little Green remembers that in the past, it would only deign to touch that thing that was comparable to a biological weapon when it was half-starved.

"Hmm... how about I go out tomorrow and help Sasha catch Pokémon?" Xia Zhaozhao began to think.

She seemed to see herself as a champion trainer, leading a large group of bizarre aggregates, conquering the entire Xinmao City in a magnificent future.

"Catch those aggregates outside if you see any that look good! Little Green, Little Green, come with me!"

Xia Zhaozhao unilaterally and enthusiastically announced the team's next course of action.

"If you call those things Pokémon, Nintendo's legal department will probably fly over in a helicopter overnight to file a lawsuit," Little Green quipped mercilessly.

Fortunately, it is the end of the world.

Copyright law, much like human dignity, has long since become a pile of worthless paper that no one cares about.

However, let's set aside the question of whether crudely linking these SAN-destroying gadgets with that globally renowned IP constitutes an infringement of reputation rights.

Now, there are indeed more important things to do. She needs to help Xia Zhaozhao get her runaway thoughts back on track.

"That's not the most important thing right now."

She quickly interrupted Xia Zhaozhao's unrealistic fantasies and forcefully steered the conversation back on track.

"It's about building a bridge."

Her gaze fell upon the wolf beside her. The wolf understood and nodded slightly.

"Okay." Xia Zhaozhao counted on her fingers, starting to calculate like a primary school student.

"So... if it's as Xiaobai just said, isn't it just about setting up anchor points on both sides, pulling the main cable, then hanging the suspension cables, and laying the bridge deck..."

She started gesturing wildly, trying to unleash all the meager professional knowledge she had in her mind to prove to the crowd that she was a genuine, highly educated person.

"It's pretty much like those swaying suspension bridges you see in tourist attractions."

Xiao Lü gave her a more easily understandable summary.

"Therefore, steel and wood are needed."

She steered the conversation back to the most practical level: "Timber is easy to find, but it's mostly steel that's available."

Steel. A fleeting image of metal machinery in a crematorium flashed through my mind.

The refrigerated display case for corpses, the heavy metal door of the incinerator...

Too many people are dying, so crematoriums are no longer needed.

Those instruments that once carried the final dignity of the deceased now lie there quietly, reduced to the most useless tools of this era.

Unlike elevated highways, their mission has completely ended.

"There are quite a few at the crematorium," she said.

"Hmm." The wolf nodded again, succinctly stating, "I can stretch it into a steel cable."

"Then, you two will be in charge of the materials." Bai Shuyuan nodded, tacitly agreeing to Xiao Lü and Lang's team.

"I'm going to do the flaw detection."

Then, she turned to Xia Zhaozhao: "The mayflies and wolves went to find materials. Well then, you come with me."

"good!"

Xia Zhaozhao nodded immediately, agreeing faster than anyone else. Her decisive manner suggested she was afraid Bai Shuyuan might change her mind.

Being with the little white wolf is definitely much more relaxing than being with the wolf. At least we can communicate on the same wavelength. My carefree remarks won't cause any ripples in the other person's mind.

But being with wolves... Xia Zhaozhao couldn't help but shiver.

The child simply stood there quietly, doing nothing and saying nothing. The powerful gravitational field surrounding her was enough to make Xia Zhaozhao feel breathless.

Although the child was quite cute, there was nothing that could be done about the lack of compatibility.

The plan for tomorrow has been decided. Then, as expected, everyone felt sleepy.

After all, it is indeed very late now.

After a few scattered "goodnights," everyone dispersed, waiting for dawn.

"Wolf, come on, let's choose a room."

Upon reaching the top floor, Xia Zhaozhao enthusiastically pointed to the empty rooms in the corridor.

"From now on, this is your home!" she said with a tone of pride that said, "I've taken over this fishpond."

"from now on?"

The wolf's gray eyes rippled slightly at the mention of that word.

She tilted her head, looking at Xia Zhaozhao with a puzzled expression: "I... I still need to go back to find my sister."

"If I don't go back for too long, my sister will worry... But I will definitely, absolutely come back to see you!"

"Huh?"

Xia Zhaozhao was stunned. So it wasn't a new member joining the stronghold after all.

"Sister? Where...did you come from?"

Longshan City.

"Oh! Longshan City to the north!"

Xia Zhaozhao's face instantly showed a look of sudden realization.

That's the city where the "Lion" is located, a city whose power seems to defy logic.

"So, you're in charge over there now? Has 'Lion' retired?"

The wolf nodded: "Yes."

"Then when you go back, please give me a message." Xia Zhaozhao's tone became serious.

"Hmm... just say that 'The Shrike' thanked her."

"Thanks to her, she took over all my previous business here, hehe~."

This gratitude comes from the bottom of my heart. Lion took over all his business, bringing him several years of carefree and joyful time.

The wolf nodded again, keeping those words in mind.
