Gao Wu: After transforming into a soft girl, I became a calamity?

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chenyang immediately understood what Jiang Mian was planning to do.

Previously, in order to conceal her identity and to develop safely, she had always stayed behind the scenes and used clones to do things.

Therefore, controlling clones and role-playing are already second nature to her.

The Golden Crow was born from the power of [Formless] and acted entirely according to Jiang Mian's will; it can be seen as an alternative clone.

Upon reaching the fifth rank, one may inherit its formless, shapeless, and ever-changing abilities.

Calling it "formless" would probably make even the River of Oblivion doubt its own sanity and memory.

The transformation ability of [Formless] is indeed heaven-defying, just like Xu Xiaoan before.

If Jiang Mian hadn't obtained some of the power of [Formless] beforehand and hadn't sensed something was wrong, she probably would have successfully infiltrated the area.

If Jiang Mian were to use the same method to infiltrate the enemy camp and become a mole among moles, it wouldn't be impossible.

If handled properly, she could completely muddy the waters of Base City No. 1.

Although there are risks, the result is simply that Xu Xiaoan has a problem, and it has basically no impact on her.

Thinking of this, Ye Chenyang couldn't help but praise him.

"Mianmian is amazing."

"uh-huh."

Jiang Mian's lips curled up slightly, and she raised her head a little, clearly enjoying it.

This expression makes it hard not to think that if he were in a semi-dragon form, his tail would probably be pointing skyward.

Ye Chenyang smiled, took her hand, and walked towards the back mountain, no longer asking about the matter.

As per Jiang Mian's request, the house he chose was located on the very edge of the villa area, very close to the back mountain, and there were very few other residents around.

"This is it."

A moment later, the two stopped in front of a three-story villa.

Because it's a bit far from the main road, it looks all alone, but the attached yard is quite large, and there's even a swimming pool.

Ye Chenyang led Jiang Mian on a tour inside.

The house was completely empty, without any furniture, and was obviously brand new.

Jiang Mian opened the window of the master bedroom on the second floor, and could see the lush green mountains in the distance.

Ye Chenyang walked to her side and followed her gaze to look outside.

Do you like it?

"Okay, this will do."

Jiang Mian nodded, looking quite satisfied.

After entering the fifth tier, the half-calamity condition on her body became even more severe.

It's like an instinct; if you're not careful, your tail and horns will show. Suppressing it all the time makes you feel inexplicably uncomfortable, like you're holding something back.

These symptoms may only be relieved at stage six.

So at "home", she wants to be more free and relaxed.

The simplest way is to find a secluded and quiet location.

After all, there are Awakened Ones everywhere here, and quite a few of them are even high-level. It's better to be safe than sorry.

"Okay, I'll go and complete the formalities this afternoon."

Ye Chenyang turned his head slightly to look at Jiang Mian and added:

What style of decor do you want?

"furnish?"

Jiang Mian turned around and looked around.

Keep it simple.

She doesn't have high requirements in this regard; she just wants something spacious and bright. Anything flashy or gaudy makes her uncomfortable.

"By the way, Brother Ye, how long will the renovation take? This is just a bare shell; it'll probably take at least a while, right?"

"It won't take that long."

Ye Chenyang explained:

"The top renovation companies here are almost all made up of Awakened Ones, and they work very fast. As long as the price is right, it can be done in as little as three days."

"Three days?"

Jiang Mian suddenly realized that in Base City No. 1, where Awakened Ones were everywhere, even the basic industries were full of Awakened Ones?

That's true. Everyone here is an Awakened One. There are plenty of people in the top 100 of the sequence. Those who are behind can only obediently become a cog in the machine.

With so many types of awakened abilities, you can always find a suitable profession.

Make money, not shabby.

"yes."

Ye Chenyang pulled her into his arms.

"This will be our home then."

"Home...?"

Jiang Mian couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

This term seemed quite foreign to her.

"Alright, Brother Ye, let's go! Let's try to start work today!"

……

Meanwhile, Shen Qiuyu and Xu Xiaoan had already left the house.

The training camp is actually quite close to here, not far from the foot of the mountain.

"Sister Qiuyu, is this really the place?"

Xu Xiaoan followed Jiang Mian's way of addressing him, and it came out very naturally to him.

Shen Qiuyu gave her a strange look, but didn't say anything, and looked down at her phone.

"That's strange, the navigation clearly shows a road..."

She looked up and saw a dense forest in front of her; if she walked any further, she would have to go into the mountains.

Shen Qiuyu searched carefully again and finally found a hidden path on the ground.

"What are you doing?"

Suddenly, a young man wearing a camouflage hat peeked out from the dense forest beside them, his eyes darting back and forth between the two men.

Shen Qiuyu frowned, quickly regained her composure, and replied:

"Reporting for duty."

"Let me see your documents."

"Only electronic version available."

Shen Qiuyu lost all her belongings in the car, including the paper documents.

"Alright."

The young man took the two phones, looked at them carefully, and then handed them back to them.

"Come with me."

He turned around and walked along the inconspicuous path.

As he approached, the plants were driven by a strange force and parted to the sides.

"My name is Yuan Qi, you can call me Instructor Yuan."

The young man gave a brief self-introduction as he walked.

He had been notified to wait for someone here, so he was fairly familiar with their situation.

The group continued forward, and the path suddenly opened up, revealing a large open space and numerous checkpoints.

Yuan Qi led the group straight through and soon arrived inside the training camp.

This place is like a military base, but it's not completely enclosed.

That building is the dormitory.

Yuan Qi pointed to a brand-new building.

"You two happen to live together. Go to the last room at the end of the top floor. Remember to pick up your things from the office on the first floor before you go up."

"Um."

Shen Qiuyu nodded in response, while Xu Xiaoan looked around curiously.

Perhaps because the training camp is large, there don't seem to be many students inside.

After explaining the trivial matters, Yuan Qi gave each of them a booklet and then turned and left.

"Xiao An".

Hearing Shen Qiuyu calling her, Xu Xiaoan looked up and winked at her.

"What's wrong, Sister Qiuyu?"

"Don't you think that Instructor Yuan is a bit strange?"

After being enhanced, Shen Qiuyu not only evolved his abilities and steadily entered the fourth tier, but his perception also seemed to have improved.

It's hard to explain exactly, but it's roughly an improvement in mental strength, making one more sensitive.

She was the one who brought Xu Xiaoan here when they were outside.

Although Yuan Qi was initially looking at Shen Qiuyu, his attention seemed to be subtly focused on Xu Xiaoan.

"A little."

Xu Xiaoan scratched his head, then explained:

"But don't worry, Sister Mian said that encountering strange people is normal."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qiuyu couldn't help but complain in her heart, "Isn't it a bit too fast to run into them right away?"

Jiang Mian should know what's going on; she shouldn't interfere too much.

Even so, Shen Qiuyu still asked another question:

"What else did Mianmian say?"

"Well……"

Xu Xiaoan thought about it and summarized:

"Just look, don't pay attention; if they ask any strange questions, just say you don't know; if they try to do anything inappropriate..."

She paused, then looked at her own shadow.

"That's none of my business."
