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

Upon hearing this, Lü Yan felt a chill run down his spine.

"Oh? You know..."

As a sixth-order lesion, he is already one of the highest-ranking people in the Alliance.

The only way to go further here is in terms of strength.

He could clearly feel that after entering the sixth tier, the feedback he received from devouring the core was greatly weakened.

Only by sensing the elements and cultivating mental strength, just like normal awakened beings, can one progress slightly faster.

But that was just too slow, too slow.

At that rate, it might take ten years to even reach the threshold of the seventh level.

After all, he had never cultivated like this before; it was like learning from scratch.

Among the sixth-tier members of the underground city, he was the only one on the [Catastrophe] path, and he had no one to ask for guidance, so he had to figure it out on his own.

Fortunately, he discovered that if he used his abilities to create alien remains, the speed was almost the same as, or even faster than, normal cultivation.

From then on, there was no stopping it.

Since this Alliance Leader Xu was able to produce so many supplies, his identity and abilities are quite mysterious. Perhaps he knows some methods.

Thinking of this, Lü Yan looked intently at Jiang Mian.

"This is not the place to talk."

Jiang Mian shook her head and suggested:

"Let's go straight to the armory. We can hand over the materials there."

"it is good."

Upon hearing that there were materials to be gained, Lü Yan nodded in agreement without hesitation and led the way.

The Alliance headquarters is one of the few tall buildings in the underground city, almost reaching the dome of this underground space.

In addition to the regular staircases, the building also has a passageway for patients with the ability to fly to quickly go up and down, which is very convenient.

Unless it's purely a mental domain, any domain will more or less possess some spatial characteristics.

Or simply, the domain effect can be applied to oneself, so after the fifth tier, they generally possess aerial combat capabilities.

There are many different takeoff techniques, but the speed and stability vary greatly.

Most of them require a high level of proficiency, so you need to practice a lot.

There are even those with poor talent who only learn to fly steadily when they are almost at the sixth level, and there are quite a few of them.

However, flying is generally prohibited in cities, even underground cities, so you can only practice in designated areas.

Yu Xiaoxiao had only recently broken through to the fifth rank, so naturally she wouldn't.

So Jiang Mian simply picked her up and jumped down from the passageway.

As the feeling of weightlessness washed over her, Yu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but curl up into a ball and hug herself tightly.

It wasn't until more than ten seconds later that he stepped back onto the ground.

Her legs felt a little weak, but she still managed to stand up.

Lu Yan looked at Jiang Mian, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes, but he quickly stepped forward to lead the way as if nothing had happened.

"The armory occupies a huge area; there are seven warehouses alone."

He introduced the place as he walked:

"Because it is the core industry of the alliance, outsiders are not allowed to enter, so it is located in the basement of the headquarters."

As they spoke, the three entered a passageway.

Jiang Mian looked around.

It must be quite old, but the lighting equipment is brand new and must be maintained very frequently.

After passing through several iron gates blocking the way, the view suddenly opened up before us.

This is a huge underground space.

It was much brighter than the one above and looked quite compact, like a large workshop.

It's probably break time now, so there aren't many people around.

The machine tools were piled high with unfinished weapons and equipment, as well as various processed calamity materials.

The group quickly traversed the workshop and arrived at a warehouse.

Lu Yan first took out the materials from the bracelet and neatly stacked them aside, then returned the bracelet to Jiang Mian.

This thing was too precious; although he coveted it, he couldn't just take it by force.

The recovered calamity debris occupied about two-thirds of the warehouse, which was quite a lot.

Jiang Mian took the bracelet and couldn't help but look at him with newfound respect.

His eyes were practically gleaming with lust, yet he remained quite well-behaved?

She raised her right hand, and a shadow suddenly appeared on the warehouse ceiling, and then...

"Pat-pat, pat!"

The shadows surged.

Countless wrecked remains fell like rain from the warehouse floor, stirring up gusts of foul wind.

This golden crow clone cannot actually connect to her [world], but by hiding some save points in the shadows, she can achieve the same effect.

"Hiss~"

Lu Yan looked at the filled warehouse and gasped.

Before he could react, Jiang Mian turned around and said:

"Continue, to the next warehouse."

"besides?"

Lü Yan's eyes widened, and he quickly nodded.

"Okay! This way, please!"

The group went to Warehouse No. 2, and Jiang Mian repeated the process, filling it up again.

"continue."

"?!"

"continue."

"!"

Three, four... seven!

After a moment, Lü Yan looked at the overflowing warehouse in front of him and fell silent.

He had divided the warehouse into so many sections just for easy categorization; he never imagined it would ever be overflowing.

Lu Yan felt a void in his heart being filled, and even the way he looked at Jiang Mian was completely different from before.

There is simply no one more beautiful than her in this world!

He roughly estimated that once the warehouse was fully processed, it would be more than enough for each member of the armed alliance.

And seven warehouses mean that every infected person in the underground city could have one.

Moreover, there are several rare sixth-tier remains inside, which adds to its value...

Not only him, but Yu Xiaoxiao was also stunned.

Is the eldest sister a rich woman?

Wait...did the boss say she wasn't human?

Because Jiang Mian behaved much like a human, even though she had personally admitted that she was a calamity, Yu Xiaoxiao always subconsciously forgot about it.

Lu Yan, being a sixth-level cultivator, quickly suppressed his shock and said solemnly:

"Alliance Leader Xu, rest assured. I will make the best use of these materials. In a short period of time, increasing the armory's production by three or four times will not be a problem."

"That's not urgent."

Jiang Mian waved his hand and said:

"Increasing production capacity too much at once will only cause profits to plummet. You can discuss the shipping efficiency with Chen Li."

"Now, let's talk about your situation first."

Jiang Mian walked up to him, exuding an aura that made him unable to resist submitting.

"Please speak."

Lu Yan's pupils contracted, and he said respectfully.

That's it! That's the feeling!

He didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he always felt that there was a burning black flame in the shadows.

"After you entered the sixth tier, did you feel that your progress rate dropped drastically, and it's completely incomparable to before?"

Lü Yan nodded, waiting for what was to come.

"Because of the existence of 'shackles'."

"shackles?"

"Um."

Jiang Mian, with his hands behind his back, said in a pretentious manner:

"Leaving aside other paths for now, the [Catastrophe] path, once it reaches a higher level, will be subject to an invisible shackle."

"As the name suggests, this thing locks the upper limit of ability. Even the top twenty in the sequence can only reach the eighth rank at most."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yan couldn't help but wonder:

"But I'm only at Rank 6. Even if it's only Sequence 43, the upper limit shouldn't be this low, right?"

He already believed seven-tenths of what Jiang Mian said.

Although she is only at the fifth rank, her origins are mysterious and she has so many resources, so the power behind her is probably unimaginable.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Mian pointed to his heart.

"Because... your abilities are incomplete."

Lü Yan fell silent.

He was well aware of this.

Even those who have reached the sixth level of balance in disease ultimately lack the core of calamity.

The human body acts like a limiter, making it impossible to unleash the full power of the calamity sequence.

What good are high numbers?

Instead, it leaves hidden wounds in every battle, which will eventually all erupt one day.

Since this Alliance Leader Xu brought it up in person, it means there is a solution.

"Do you have a solution?"

Hooked.

Jiang Mian smiled and nodded.

"uh-huh."
