When Jiang Mian and Ye Chenyang arrived at the western defense line, they were not greeted by bloodshed and calamity, but rather by an abundance of elements.

She looked up at the barrier of light in the distance.

Unlike the boundary of 'Eternal Light', it is close to a physical entity, like a cutting line that keeps all the surging mist outside the wall.

As for the abundant elements, they came from the emissions when the cannons were ignited or exploded.

Even though the current mass production of alien remains has a fairly high utilization rate of elements, little by little, it has eventually become what it is now.

In some ways, this place is quite suitable for [Elemental] Awakeners to fight or level up.

However, due to the elemental disorder, the requirements for the awakened one's operational precision and mental resilience are much higher.

But for Qin Xiao, the pinnacle of [Elements], it's nothing.

"Mianmian, we've arrived."

Ye Chenyang's voice came from the side.

Jiang Mian nodded and landed with him in front of a campsite.

After passing identity verification, the two passed through a checkpoint and officially entered the camp area.

This area belongs to the First Defense Zone Logistics Department and is located in the heart of the "Great Wall" fortress complex.

At first glance, the buildings of various colors are neatly arranged, and the facilities look quite complete.

Jiang Mian withdrew her gaze and discussed the plan to split up with Ye Chenyang.

After all, she couldn't possibly play Ye Chenyang's girlfriend in front of Qin Xiao and the others while also appearing as the "authoritative" Inspector Jiang.

In short, the first thing is to get people on board.

Jiang Mian watched Ye Chenyang's figure disappear into the distance, then turned around to look at the middle-aged officer walking towards him.

He was tall and strong, with a square face and two bars and three stars on his epaulets.

A colonel is at least a sixth-order awakened being.

Jiang Mian frowned. This person's temperament and features gave her a vague sense of familiarity, as if she had seen him somewhere before.

"Inspector Jiang!"

He gave a standard military salute, his voice steady and powerful.

"Sixth Army Artillery Command, Zhao Mangshan. Arriving to receive supplies on orders from the war zone!"

Jiang Mian glanced at him again, nodded slightly, and didn't ask any further questions.

"Colonel Zhao, this batch of core equipment is substantial. Are the warehouse and inventory personnel ready?"

"yes!"

Zhao Mangshan nodded and stepped aside to lead the way.

"plz follow me."

The two walked one after the other towards the warehouse area.

There were many soldiers passing by on the road, among whom the most eye-catching were tall "tin cans".

They were clad in heavy powered armor, yet they moved with incredible speed, their heavy footsteps and the scraping of their armor echoing through the empty camp.

Jiang Mian withdrew his gaze and pondered to himself.

Previously, Ye Chenyang had briefly explained the fighting style here to her: mainly long-range artillery, with very little melee combat.

These power armors are clearly designed for close combat.

These people are most likely one of the few units here specifically responsible for assault operations; they are the elite of the elite.

Strangely, the other soldiers passing by deliberately kept their distance from them.

While it's normal to avoid people when walking, deliberately going around them by more than ten meters seems a bit excessive.

"arrive."

Before they could think any further, the two arrived at their destination.

This is a spacious square, and the open space next to it is already crowded with people.

They sat on the ground and, seeing a girl following behind Zhao Mangshan, cast curious glances at him, while many of them looked disappointed.

"Didn't Lao Zhao say he was going to pick up some goods? Why did he bring a girl instead?"

A dark-faced soldier nudged his comrade beside him and said in a low voice.

"Are you blind? Didn't you see those clothes? They belong to the Ministry of Supervision."

The man responded in a low voice, but when he saw Zhao Mangshan looking at him, he quickly shut up.

"That's really strange, people from the Inspection Department coming here..."

The dark-faced soldier muttered something under his breath and didn't say anything more.

Jiang Mian kept his eyes fixed ahead, completely ignoring the stares he was receiving.

She was wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt and denim shorts when she went out, with a uniform jacket from the Ministry of Supervision on top, and she also did a simple disguise.

Of course, the face used was the one from when she was "Ye Chan".

When Qin Xiao arrives, she will switch back to the identity of "Jiang Mian" and perform the role she is best at.

Zhao Mangshan stopped in the center of the square, turned to face the crowd, and spoke in a loud voice:

"gather!"

The square immediately fell silent.

The soldiers composed themselves and quickly formed ranks.

"This is the special inspector, Inspector Jiang. Let's give him a round of applause!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a chorus of voices rang out from below.

Upon hearing that Jiang Mian was actually an inspector, the gazes of the crowd towards her became even more intense.

Jiang Mian scratched at the ground with his toes, feeling inexplicably uneasy, as if recalling some unpleasant memories.

In my past life, when I was in high school, I once gave a speech on a command platform, and it felt like this too.

Jiang Mian has always been too lazy to bother with such meaningless things.

She wouldn't have gone up if Teacher Lin hadn't been so desperate to find someone else!

Jiang Mian maintained his composure and gave Zhao Mangshan a slight nod.

"Let's begin."

After saying that, she turned around and gently raised her hand towards the center of the square.

Ripples suddenly appeared in the air above the square.

Subsequently, a massive amount of [Cataclysmic] cores poured out from the [World].

The multicolored cores shimmered faintly in the dim sunlight, piling up into small hills.

Everyone stared intently at the ever-accumulating core of the calamity, their breathing becoming heavier.

If it weren't for military discipline, they probably would have already started exclaiming in shock.

Ammunition! Ammunition!

They are desperately short of ammunition!

How many brothers, due to insufficient ammunition, fought desperately to defend the line, only to be completely drowned in a sea of ​​blood in the end?

The fact that Inspector Jiang has delivered so much ammunition is a lifesaver!

Looking at the mountain of cores, Zhao Mangshan felt a mix of emotions.

Because the Zhao family's affair had become too big a deal, he was suspended from his post and investigated for several days even though he hadn't done anything wrong.

There was no other way, after all, he was the only sixth-level cultivator left in the Zhao family.

Fortunately, Zhao Mangshan was not involved in the matter, and the investigation was quickly concluded.

As soon as I came out, I was assigned to take over the supplies.

He knew the importance of the disaster's core to the front lines, and he also knew how dangerous the Black Hole Bomb was.

That's why he couldn't understand why Zhao Heling would do such a thing, and even implicate the entire Zhao family.

This incident caused the entire Zhao family to fall apart, a truly devastating tragedy.

Those clansmen who were arrested, even if they weren't executed on the spot, probably won't get out.

If someone has a bit of talent and a decent level, they might meet again on the battlefield.

"Colonel Zhao."

Jiang Mian's voice drew his attention back.

"Inspector Jiang, please speak."

"There isn't enough space."

"……plz follow me."

Zhao Mangshan was startled.

I heard that what this person brought were all confiscated stolen goods, but I didn't expect there to be so much.

The more he thought about it, the more guilty he felt for the brothers who died on the front lines. His chest felt like it was blocked, and he couldn't catch his breath.

Zhao Mangshan forced himself to be alert, saluted, and led Jiang Mian toward the next warehouse area.

Before leaving, he turned back and shouted something to the queue:

"Let's begin the inventory! I'll give you three hours!"

"yes!"

……

Meanwhile, Ye Chenyang made his way smoothly to Qin Xiao and Xiao Shuang's dormitory.

However, at this moment, a strange noise came from inside.

"Hehehe, good bro, don't run away!"

"Old Xiao, stop! Ah~"

As soon as Qin Xiao finished speaking, a loud "bang" came from inside.

"?"

Ye Chenyang's face stiffened, and his hand, which was about to knock on the door, froze in mid-air.
