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

Since Yu tide had already said so, Gu Cheng'an had no choice but to give up and let Yang Xin take over temporarily.

Although she was seriously injured, she was still able to handle some daily and follow-up matters without any problems; she could simply ask Jiang An for help.

Upon hearing this, Yang Xin almost rolled her eyes, but thanks to her good manners, she managed to stop herself.

Working overtime again?

There are indeed not many people qualified for this position.

Jiang An had only been here for a few days and was not familiar with the area, let alone able to coordinate affairs.

There was nothing she could do but accept it.

Old Gu gave some final instructions, covering everything in great detail, even planning where the floodwaters would temporarily find refuge.

The Blood Sea no longer spawns the [Slaughter] Calamity, but the [King of Cysts] that occasionally appears is even more troublesome.

As is well known, within each of these vesicle worlds, there live many "parasites," which are low-level [chaos] calamities.

The tower defenses that Xuanhuang set up on the front lines are quite powerful and have a good coverage area.

Those "parasites" exposed to the spatial turbulence are doomed to die.

The burstable vesicles also continuously inject new energy into the spatial turbulence.

With such a large number of people, it's inevitable that some will try to slip through the net by taking advantage of the turbulent currents.

Spatial turbulence can exacerbate fog activity.

According to Gu Chengan's estimates, the probability of encountering small-scale fog tides on the western front every day in the future may be as high as the probability of rain during the "plum rain season" in the old days.

These are the new threats we must now face.

Therefore, maintaining the western defense line is still very necessary, only the intensity of the fighting is not as great as before.

The soldiers only need to clear out a small number of smuggled calamities; the focus should be on strengthening infrastructure and resisting the fog of war.

"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. The rest is up to Yang Xin. Yu tide, come with me."

After Gu Cheng'an left with Yu Xi, Yang Xin didn't say much and told everyone to go back and rest.

However, in order to provide her with treatment, Jiang An voluntarily offered to stay by her side.

Yang Xin did not refuse, and quickly got into work mode after everyone left.

……

Meanwhile, at Base City No. 1, the Yun Family Manor.

Yun Ling's study door was tightly closed, and the curtains were drawn tightly, not a single ray of light could get through.

The darkness inside the room was exceptionally deep.

The only source of light was a 3D map on Yunling's table.

It is composed of pure water elements, radiating a deep blue light, and clearly showing the structure of the entire Base City One.

Several black routes have already been drawn.

Yun Ling and Yu Zhengqing sat facing each other, but remained silent the entire time.

After an eerie silence, Yu Zhengqing finally couldn't hold back any longer and stood up, saying:

"Zhengmo is dead."

"I know."

Yun Ling said calmly:

"His soul has returned to the throne of God, which can be considered a fulfillment."

Since He descended His gaze, the power of [Chaos] has spread throughout this world, with the special authority bestowed upon Him as its "main root."

Yun Ling possesses the "main root," and all the other branches on the "root" are under his control.

After Yu Zhengmo died, his memories of the mission were naturally shared with him.

He knew all of this: Zhao Niugao broke free from control and killed Yu Zhengmo; Shura passively absorbed the power of [Anger]; Jiang Mian successfully transformed into a dragon.

"Brother Yun, what should we do next?"

A hint of worry appeared on Yu Zhengqing's face.

Zhao Niugao might not have been under control from the beginning, giving him enough time to leave clues.

If the higher-ups suspect them through Yu Zhengmo's connection...

"What should we do?"

Yun Ling chuckled, appearing completely unperturbed.

He raised his hand and pointed to the tower in the center of the map.

"Do you think...they might risk the destruction of 'Eternal Light' by launching a full-scale attack on us?"

"what?"

Yu Zhengqing scratched his head.

The tower of "Eternal Light" was personally built by Yang Ze, who was already at the ninth level at the time, and he really didn't think that any power could destroy it.

"Brother Yun, are you planning something big?"

Yun Ling nodded slightly and said confidently:

"If they don't find out, everything will be fine. Otherwise, hehe—"

Although he didn't finish speaking, his meaning was already quite clear.

If officials come knocking, Yun Ling will directly target "Changming".

"Eternal light" has the effect of maintaining spatial stability.

The person who makes the move is closest to the target and will likely take the brunt of a ninth-tier power attack; their fate is predictable.

As for the candidate... hehe.

"Hiss~"

Yu Zhengqing couldn't help but gasp and give a thumbs up.

"That's impressive, Brother Yun!"

He hadn't thought that much about it.

Once the "Eternal Light" is destroyed, the mist will surge in from all directions, instantly engulfing the entire core area.

At that time, tens of thousands of people will probably die in the fog, and it may even trigger an unprecedented super-large fog tide!

Yu Zhengqing did not resist in his heart; on the contrary, he felt a morbid excitement.

One of their ultimate goals is to sever the [Radiance] and let the mist engulf the world.

If Changming falls, wouldn't we have already achieved more than half of our goal?

The remaining half only requires eliminating [Eternal Day], and the last ten percent are the other [Radiant] Awakeners.

Yu Zhengqing suddenly thought of something and asked:

"By the way, how many Rank 8s do we have now?"

No matter how meticulous a plan is, you still need the ability to execute it, right?

Yun Ling stretched out her hand and made a "three" gesture.

"You, me, and... the old patriarch."

……

Meanwhile, Jiang Mian and Ye Chenyang had returned to room 404 of the guesthouse and, under the pretext of checking on Xu Xiaoan, coaxed her away.

As soon as she entered the room, she pulled Ye Chenyang into the [world].

The darkness of the past few days has vanished, replaced by the long-awaited blue sea and sky.

High in the sky, a giant azure bird soared upwards, looking like a child weighing tens of thousands of tons frolicking.

With just a gentle flap of its wings, the ripples it created transformed into towering waves.

Sensing Jiang Mian's presence, Huo Hai folded its wings, transformed into a streak of azure light, and rapidly plummeted towards the direction where the two were.

During its descent, the azure light shrank at a visible speed, eventually landing gently in front of the two.

"dominate!"

As the blue light dissipated, a petite figure draped in a dark blue feather robe rushed forward.

Just as she was about to rush into Jiang Mian's arms, she stopped abruptly and looked up.

Her small face was expressionless, but her eyes revealed a longing.

"she is?"

Ye Chenyang clearly had a guess, but he still looked uncertainly at Jiang Mian beside him.

"A calamity indeed."

Jiang Mian said matter-of-factly:

"She should have been resurrected by the time she reached the sixth rank. However, some unexpected things happened during the process."

If she had chosen the first option back then, Huo Hai's resurrection would probably have involved his body being reshaped by the power of heaven and earth, making him a true "Kunpeng".

Choosing the second option meant that she had to provide the necessary resources and environment to nurture the child anew.

The result was roughly the same, but it contained a lot of "formless" elements, raising the upper limit and making the transformation much easier than before.

Because the source of the [Formless] power is Jiang Mian, who even gifted him a personal form.

That is, the little green-haired girl in front of you.

However, even though there are three forms, the state is shared.

It's already an accident that Huo Hai, who has just been "born," can maintain her current teenage appearance.

After listening, Ye Chenyang sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

Why is there another one?

Fortunately, Huo Hai has a relatively calm personality; although he looks young, he probably won't be as clingy as Xu Xiaoan...

Huo Hai stared longingly at Jiang Mian.

Under this barrage of gazes, Jiang Mian finally couldn't resist and reached out to pat her head.

Huo Hai's face remained expressionless, but he narrowed his eyes, clearly showing a hint of enjoyment.

Previously, she was always in core mode, but now that she can physically interact with the world again, she couldn't be more excited.

But she couldn't go too far, lest she annoy the ruler.

Fortunately, Jiang Mian seems to really like her human cub form.

"Hmph, old tortoise, old mudfish, I won!"

Not far away on the sea, a huge dragon head emerged from the water, gazing silently at the "triumphant" Calamity Sea.
