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

Base 187, northern part of the city.

"You mean, [Doomsday] and [Eternal Day] have already begun their operations?"

Yun Ling frowned and looked at the long-haired young man in front of her.

He was just about to go to the city himself when he unexpectedly ran into Shura, who was on his way to the Chaos Cult's headquarters.

"Yes. With the [Overturning the World] attack, the entire seventh-tier Black Hand Gang was wiped out, including Huo Tianxiong and Zhou Li."

Luo Zheng crossed his arms and said helplessly:

"Before this, they had just dealt with Li Liang, the Wilderness Hunter, and perhaps... Zhong Zhen and Lin Kai are gone too."

Zhou Li, of course, refers to their comrade in the Black Hand Gang.

Because her ability is [Phantom Dancer], her combat strength is not considered strong among the group, so she has never had much of a presence.

"what?"

Yun Ling's brain briefly went blank for a moment.

In just a short while, eight Tier 7 enemies were missing from Base City 187, including their key target, Zhongzhen?!

Originally there were twelve seventh-tier beings. Even if the assimilation success rate was only 30%, there would still be at least two or three more seventh-tier companions.

If we push it forward a while, it will reach the eighth level!

But now there are only four people left, and it's really hard to say how many will actually make it.

A few seconds later, he managed to grasp a key point:

"The Cataclysmic Flood?! It's here?!"

If we're talking about who's the most troublesome in the human camp right now, besides Zhong Chang and Yang Xin, it would be [The World-Crushing Torrent].

"No, no, no."

Shura shook his head and explained:

"I suspect it's something like a clone, and it's disposable; it disappears after use. It's very powerful, and it seems there's more than one!"

Good news, the cataclysmic flood didn't happen.

The bad news is that the number of clones Jiang Mian has created is unknown, as is their strength.

Yun Ling couldn't help but rub her forehead.

Is this her trump card for acting so boldly?

On the bright side, at least they're not completely ignorant of the abilities of [the apocalypse].

Even if there are many of these clones, each one used reduces the number available.

Unless she can "replenish" her supplies while staying away from the main body of the [World-Destroying Torrent]—wait a minute?!

What if she really can?

Thinking of this, Yun Ling fell into an even longer silence.

Ordinary storage equipment couldn't possibly hold something of this magnitude, and given its connection to the [Cataclysmic] calamity, the most likely explanation is...

"Shura, you said you fought a great battle before you completed your 'Dragon Transformation' in the [Apocalypse]?"

"Um."

"What is her field? Has she ever used it?"

"!"

Shura's expression changed. He had been so focused on the thrill of the battle that he hadn't really noticed.

Aside from using the [Sun Wheel], [Doomsday] doesn't seem to have ever used any other domains.

Or rather, everyone who has seen her realm is dead!

Luckily I ran fast, otherwise I might have been blasted to death by the [World-Destroying Torrent]!

Yun Ling took in his reaction but did not continue the topic.

Based on the previous generation's [Doomsday] realm, he strongly suspected that this generation's [Doomsday] realm was an effect similar to a pocket world, and that it was permanent.

Fortunately, there should be some kind of restriction.

Even so, it's still incredibly amazing.

[Eternal Day] has truly raised a monster...

"Tsk, what a pity."

Yun Ling changed the subject and returned to the matter of the Black Hand Gang being wiped out.

He was originally determined to have Huo Tianxiong.

With exceptional talent and already at the seventh rank, if he could successfully join them, his future would be limitless.

Now we can only settle for second best and try to subdue the remaining four seventh-tier enemies before [Doomsday] and [Eternal Day] take action again.

Yun Ling shook her head and asked a symbolic question:

Where do you want to go next?

"Me?"

Luo Zheng turned around and replied calmly:

"Base City 185, please. My sword needs blood, and my men need blood too. Since [Doomsday] and [Eternal Day] are here, I won't bother them any longer."

With this trump card in hand, no matter what, he has no chance of defeating his opponent.

Rather than inviting humiliation, it's better to develop stealthily, heal the wounds of your men, and take revenge in the future.

"Hehe, good luck."

Yun Ling politely clasped his hands in a fist salute, then passed him and flew towards the city.

After a while, once the two had gone far away, the giant tortoise deep underground slowly opened its eyes and casually dialed Jiang Mian's mental communication.

……

"Is Yun Ling going into the city?"

In a small alley in the second district.

Jiang Mian and Ye Chenyang had just finished cleaning up the place when they received a communication from Xuanhuang.

"So fast?"

Despite saying that, Ye Chenyang had already guessed it and was not surprised at all.

Jiang Mian neither confirmed nor denied, but silently wiped her face.

The next second, her full head of silver hair turned completely black, and her originally delicate face became plain and unremarkable, only slightly pretty.

However, Jiang Mian had a little extra thought.

Her eyes were slightly upturned at the corners, and upon closer inspection, they inexplicably possessed a certain allure.

"Brother Ye, how's it going?"

She moved closer to Ye Chenyang and smiled, deliberately squinting her eyes.

"In my eyes, you look the best no matter how you dress up."

Ye Chenyang reached out and cupped her face, unable to resist rubbing it; it felt just like the real thing.

He's not good with words and doesn't know how to make people happy; all he can offer is sincerity.

"Hmph, all he does is say such cheesy things."

Jiang Mian put his hands on his hips and didn't ask any tricky questions.

She's not some pretentious little girl.

In Jiang Mian's view, Ye Chenyang was already hers, and as long as he remained loyal to her, there was nothing more to say.

Wasn't that the reason she agreed to Ye Chenyang's request in the first place?

"Go, go, change your clothes. We'll sneak into the First District later and take a look. If anything goes wrong, get out of there right away."

"it is good."

Ye Chenyang smiled, kissed her on the cheek, and was then tossed into the [World] by Jiang Mian.

When he reappeared, his new appearance startled Jiang Mian.

"How is it? Not bad, right?"

Ye Chenyang grimaced and reached out to touch his perfect jawline.

Just moments ago he had a gloomy and reserved demeanor, and he was quite handsome overall. In the blink of an eye, he has transformed into a robust and upright young man.

The kind that's hard to spot even when blending into a crowd.

"Is it... alright?"

Jiang Mian's lips twitched, and she pushed Ye Chenyang to walk out.

……

In order to achieve his goal as quickly as possible, Yun Ling chose to directly target the Glorious Monument in the heart of the city.

He hovered above the first district, looking down at the chaotic city.

The dust and smoke from Huo Tianxiong's attack had already dissipated, leaving the city's ruins exposed.

There are still many people in the ruins, most of whom are here because their stronghold is located here.

They just went out for one day, and their home was gone; their mental state completely collapsed.

However, it was Huo Tianxiong, the leader of the Black Hand Gang, who made the move. They could only swallow their anger and slink away as they searched for their remaining belongings.

Yun Ling ignored these insignificant figures and flew straight towards the Black Hand Gang headquarters.

Soon, he reached the tip of his middle finger.

This structure is made of a special transparent material and is shaped like a sharp fingernail.

"Snap!"

With a light tap of his fingertip, Yun Ling instantly pierced a large hole.

"Who goes there?! Stand there—"

Upon noticing that an outsider had entered, the guards inside the room rushed forward without hesitation.

He was engulfed by a force of chaos before he could finish his shout.

The power of shadow surged, making a terrifying "splattering" sound, but it quickly faded away completely, revealing a writhing mass of flesh.

"Is it inappropriate?"

Yun Ling withdrew her gaze.

He personally intervened to assimilate them; anyone with even a slight affinity could become a most loyal believer.

But if not, they will become nourishment for the incubation of [Chaos], just like the person in front of them.

Well, there are plenty of people in the city; many will succeed.

He looked toward the center of the room, where a magnificent monument, about five meters high, stood silently.

In a base city of normal size, the Glorious Monument is only about 1.5 meters tall, and three are enough.

However, the location of Base City No. 187 is quite large and its layout is carefully considered.

One in the center, four on the first city wall, eight on the second city wall, and so on.

In Yun Ling's eyes, the power of [Radiance] was like a chain, emanating from the radiant monument before him and spreading out in four directions.

Once this core device is destroyed, he won't need to search for the rest one by one.

Yun Ling slowly raised his hand and completely enveloped it with the power of [Chaos].

"Snap!"

With a crisp sound, the sky above the First District visibly darkened.

Then, a dense power of chaos suddenly erupted, spreading throughout the entire base city and devouring the remaining radiance.
