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

"I see."

Jiang Mian couldn't help but recall the strange look in his eyes when they first met.

That makes sense.

"The children of patients with the disease will not necessarily become patients themselves, but they will be treated the same as the children of patients with the disease."

With a slight thought, Jiang Li's long, smooth, black hair turned completely lifeless and pale.

Even his pupils shimmered with an eerie, wine-red glow, making him look no different from some other patients with the same disease.

This is what she truly looks like.

"After all, they inherit characteristics from the infected person, and their probability of becoming infected is much higher than that of ordinary people."

Jiang Mian was slightly taken aback.

According to some scholars' hypotheses, the fog contains some special substance.

They are the source of sequence ability and are ubiquitous in all human bodies.

And spirit is the key to inspiring them.

If activated in the wrong way, it becomes a disease.

According to Jiang Li, it seems to be somewhat similar to certain genetic mental illnesses?

As descendants of the diseased individuals, the awakening of their [origin] is indeed somewhat incredible.

However, she probably always had this appearance before she awakened.

Even though the Jiang family is relatively open-minded, living in the inner circle naturally involves being secretly gossiped about by other families.

"Sister Jiang Li, you..."

Jiang Li smiled calmly and reached out to tuck a stray strand of hair behind her ear.

Is that strange?

Having witnessed her mother turn into a pile of mud, and with the strange looks from outsiders, she naturally empathized with the group of patients.

Some diseases are quite insidious, and even inhibitors cannot cure them.

Take her mother, for example.

Her ability is Sequence 36, [Blood Tai Sui].

If it's a calamity, that's fine, since its power comes from spores.

Once a human possesses this ability, they will be afflicted by a curse that seeps into every cell of their body.

As the level increases, the body will be gradually transformed into an indescribable mass, starting with the bones and slowly melting away, regardless of the stage of the disease.

However, to maintain its physical stability, it must constantly devour the core, essentially falling into a vicious cycle from which it cannot escape.

Even though the mother deliberately reduced her intake, it only slightly pushed the timeline back, and the final outcome was still difficult to change.

In Jiang Li's opinion, she was already very lucky to become an Awakened.

It was something no one expected that it would become the [Origin].

And Jiangmian...

She was a true apex disease patient. If she hadn't met Ye Chenyang, even with sufficient inhibitors, she would have inevitably gone astray.

If I can help her, that would be wonderful.

Faced with Jiang Li's kindness, Jiang Mian was at a loss, just like when she faced Teacher Lin.

Ye Chenyang seemed to have anticipated this, standing behind her and gently placing his hand on her shoulder.

Jiang Li and he exchanged a silent glance, then Jiang Li stood up.

"Alright, that's all I have to say. Contact me anytime regarding supplies, and as for the audio... keep an eye on things yourselves."

After saying that, she turned and walked out, and Jiang An silently followed.

"Brother Ye."

Jiang Mian shook Ye Chenyang's hand.

Although Ye Chenyang's attitude had already revealed this, it was still surprising to learn more about her.

The combination of the awakened and the diseased has existed for a long time?

Could we possibly stumble upon an "Origin"?

She slowly raised her left hand and looked at the jade in her palm.

"This is a creation of her power, called Source Essence."

Ye Chenyang followed her gaze and explained:

"Once activated, it can be used to restore one's condition or to prolong life when near death; its effect is significantly greater than that of Type I Life Potion."

Generally speaking, medications are divided into three levels, with inhibitors being the most typical example of this classification.

The life potion was developed by the Jiang family for awakened individuals who were fighting outside and did not have any [Wanling] teammates by their side.

Type 3 can only quickly heal some sprains and bruises, but Type 1 can instantly restore the fighting ability of seriously injured soldiers.

However, it is not a true Awakener of All Spirits.

The body's vitality primarily comes from the injured person themselves, and there is an unavoidable side effect of overdrawing the body's resources.

But the source is different.

It was already infused with a large amount of life force from Jiang Li, and it also came with a skill called [Endless Life], the effect of which was simply heaven-defying.

Jiang Mian put the source essence into his space and looked thoughtfully at the doorway.

By revealing her true appearance, Jiang Li has fully demonstrated her attitude.

"Let's go."

She stood up and straightened her skirt.

"Pack up those supplies, then we can start making preparations."

"it is good."

The two returned to the warehouse.

Jiang Mian simply scanned the supplies, then added them to the [World] and used the save point to transport them to the immigration point.

Since the Ministry of Supervision didn't have much to do at the moment, they went straight home.

……

Time quickly passed and evening arrived.

The night was quiet, but at this moment, Research Institute No. 1 received an uninvited guest.

"Boom!"

The dome of the main building was blasted open by a black sphere of light emanating a distorted aura.

"Waaah—"

The alarm blared, piercing the night.

The researchers inside the building were thrown into chaos.

They never imagined that someone would be so audacious as to attack Research Institute No. 1.

This place is located in the core area, closest to the center, and Zhong's residence is not far away.

The attackers are either insane or possess extraordinary strength!

"The power of [Chaos]?"

Gu Yuanzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the distorted black shadow in the sky.

Wasn't Wuxiang recruited?

Where did this come from?

He guessed that this guy might be trying to force his way into the secret vault and seize those strange remains created by the previous generation's pinnacle of calamity.

But the dark figure flew straight towards the center of the research area, its target clearly...

"A stone tablet?!"

This thing seems to be of little use except for warning of the appearance of the Pinnacle Calamity.

However, since it can do this, its origins must be extraordinary.

He had a vague premonition that if this guy got his hands on the Calamity Stone, something bad might happen.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuanzhou couldn't sit still any longer.

He instantly released his vast spiritual power, enveloping the dark figure within it.

"town!"

As soon as the words fell, the spiritual energy gathered together and actually materialized, like a huge white jade seal, which covered the black figure!

Under the pressure of this seal, even though the surrounding walls were not directly hit, they still made cracking sounds as they were unable to bear the weight.

Even with special reinforcements, the research institute's buildings could not withstand the aftershocks of a battle caused by a seventh-tier awakened individual.

However, the dark figure only slightly deformed before suddenly unleashing a dense power of shadow energy.

Its body resembled a miniature black hole, attracting all surrounding objects.

Including his mental strength.

The shape of the white jade seal was instantly distorted, and then... it was sucked in?!

Gu Yuanzhou stared at the "black hole" with a solemn expression.

The fact that the opponent was able to break free from his [Four Directions Town] so easily, even though it was not fully formed due to the urgency of the situation, was enough to show the strength of his opponent.

Before he could think any further, the miniature black hole suddenly began to expand.

The already precarious rooftop collapsed instantly.

The falling pebbles were reduced to dust after only catching a trace of the dissipated Chaos power.

As its power was fully unleashed, the entire building was instantly reduced to a cloud of dust.

Just then, a bright yellow flame suddenly appeared in the sky.

It seemed to be pulled, floating lightly towards the black hole.

The instant the flames touched the black hole, an invisible blade of light slashed down.

It seemed like they passed right through, but the ever-expanding darkness...

stopped.
