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

Behind the main battlefield, Jiang Mian slowly opened his eyes.

"Inspector Jiang, how's the situation?"

Zhao Niugao noticed her unusual expression and his heart skipped a beat.

The situation inside the warship was unclear, and from the beginning, he had prepared for the worst:

Once the stone tablet is obtained, it will almost certainly be discovered.

Therefore, even if he can temporarily exert the power of the ninth rank, his task is not to participate in the main battlefield, but to provide support to Jinwu at any time.

"We got it, but there's only one Calamity Stone."

Jiang Mian said succinctly:

"That thing interferes with my judgment and blocks my senses from the Awakening Stone Tablet."

After speaking, she paused for a moment, then added:

"Perhaps the [Formless One] knew the value of the stone tablet to us, and knew we would go to retrieve it, so he deliberately separated them and set a trap."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Niugao's face also darkened.

"No matter what, let's get this stone tablet first. I'll go meet you, Inspector Jiang, be careful."

"it is good."

Jiang Mian nodded, quietly watching Zhao Niugao's departing figure, and concealed his own presence.

……

"boom!"

As soon as Jiang Mian switched his consciousness to Jinwu's side, he heard a series of explosions.

The battle memories were instantly synchronized. Jiang Mian's eyes narrowed, and he waved towards the darkness in front of him.

"Buzz!"

[Heavenly Punishment], its surface shimmering with six-colored light, flew out of the chaos and floated steadily in front of her.

Just as Jiang Mian was talking to Zhao Niugao, Jinwu automatically broke through the previous cavity and entered the "blood vessel" channel.

However, the flesh-and-blood warship was sealed inside and had no passageway to the outside.

With no other option, she could only continue walking in the direction she had come from.

After all, those dark figures were running towards the gap, so the guards there must be quite strong. Running that way would just be asking for trouble.

We must hold on until Zhao Niugao arrives!

Jiang Mian gripped the spear shaft, watching warily in the direction it had just flown from.

"roar!"

Low growls echoed from the darkness, seemingly carrying some inexplicable mental interference, which inexplicably irritated her.

Jiang Mian glanced at the calamity stone tablet beside him, then immediately turned his attention to it.

The annihilation and natural disasters contained within the core were catalyzed to their extreme, all transforming into annihilation winds entwined around the spearheads!

She raised the [Heavenly Punishment] high and hurled it again—

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

The spear transformed into a dazzling white light, forcefully breaking through the wall of flesh and blood, emitting a series of sticky, cracking sounds!

Jiang Mian followed closely behind, quickly traversing the forcibly opened passage.

"call out!"

Just as she was about to fly out of the passage and enter a more spacious chamber, a gust of wind suddenly struck the back of her head!

Jiang Mian turned around to block almost instinctively.

"Bang!"

A tremendous force slammed into her crossed arms, sending her flying backward and crashing into the fleshy wall below with a muffled thud.

This blow seemed to bring the flesh and blood on the wall to life.

They all became restless, and countless black and red tentacles stretched out from the cracks in the wall, trying to bind Jiang Mian tightly, drag him into the wall, and merge with him.

Jiang Mian felt a chill run down his spine and quickly got up, returning to the air.

At the same time, the power of [Catastrophe] suddenly erupted, and an elemental storm swept out instantly, pulverizing all the tentacles.

Even with these tentacles attacking relentlessly, they were unable to break through the defenses.

Jiang Mian breathed a sigh of relief and then began searching for the attacker.

Although the Golden Crow's attributes are inferior to its original form, in terms of physical qualities, it is already comparable to the peak of the seventh-tier [Slaughter] Calamity.

But that blow just now actually broke both of her arms!

Fortunately, the recovery ability of a seventh-tier being is already extraordinary, not to mention that this body is composed of pure shadow power, so it's just a fracture, a minor injury.

Jiang Mian shook his hand and returned to normal in the blink of an eye.

At the same time, the attacker's figure slowly came into view.

It was that muscular monster from before?

No, he survived taking a direct hit from her [Annihilation] attack?

Or are they just different individuals with the same appearance?

Jiang Mian narrowed her eyes slightly, waved to the side, and [Heavenly Punishment] quickly flew back and landed in her hand.

Who cares? If I can kill once, I can kill a second time!

Seemingly sensing Jiang Mian's murderous intent, the monster lowered itself to all fours, arched its back as if exhaling, and prepared to strike.

But before it could launch another attack, a merciless divine punishment slammed down from mid-air!

"boom!"

The monster's head was instantly ripped open, leaving a transparent hole running through it from top to bottom, and it fell straight to the ground.

"Phew—it's not that great!"

Jiang Mian withdrew [Heavenly Punishment] and put one hand on his hip.

[Annihilation] is indeed very useful; it can almost ignore all defensive measures, making everyone look like a fragile chicken.

While the power that can be unleashed when using the Golden Crow form is quite limited, its single-point burst is still quite strong.

She looked into the distance and saw that a number of dark figures had gathered in the direction they had come from.

Like zombies, they followed the passage, emitting muffled growls.

"This is so troublesome..."

Jiang Mian muttered something and was about to leave when she found that the thing from before was still standing there unharmed.

"call out!"

Almost in the blink of an eye, the monster appeared in front of Jiang Mian.

"Danger!"

Her instincts began to scream warnings.

There were no fluctuations in power, no mental interference, just pure speed?!

This monster has become so strong after it "resurrected"?

Without a moment to think, Jiang Mian hurriedly activated the power of [Formless] and retreated rapidly into the distance.

The monster immediately realized what was happening and gave chase.

"Slap! Slap! Slap!"

The fleshy floor at the bottom of the passage was trampled into a series of deep pits, emitting a terrible howl, and even blackish-red "blood" flowed out.

"ha?"

Jiang Mian turned his head and saw something, and immediately felt his hair stand on end.

The monster's size had swelled several times over, and two more pairs of arms had grown from its shoulders. Its entire lower body had turned into that of a horse, and it continued to relentlessly pursue them.

This state inexplicably gave Jiang Mian a sense of familiarity... [Asura Dharma Body]?

Was that the [Three Transformations of the Heavenly Demon]?

Jiang Mian was startled. This guy was the [Asura] from the Second Main World?!

The more she thought about it, the more she realized it made sense. Although their appearances were completely different, their abilities were essentially the same.

In other words, it is currently at its strongest, but it is its last life!

A murderous intent surged within Jiang Mian, and he unconsciously gripped the [Heavenly Punishment] tightly.

She was about to launch a counterattack, but the monster seemed to sense her intention and suddenly stopped moving.

Centered on it, an invisible ripple instantly spread out, enveloping Jiang Mian.

Jiang Mian felt a jolt in his head, and instantly all his fighting spirit vanished, even his eyes became much clearer.

"Stop my spears and halberds?!"

Oh no! It's a chimera!

Jiang Mian's face darkened, and he stared at the monster that had transformed into a centaur not far away. Neither of them launched another attack.

She tried to quietly take half a step back, and the monster followed suit by taking half a step forward;

She simply transformed into a black light and fled again, with the monster closely following.

Since this thing couldn't be attacked at will, Jiang Mian simply ran at full speed.

But not long after, Jiang Mian stopped again.

There was a person standing in her path.

The man had the typical appearance of a foreigner, with blond hair and golden eyes, and was only dressed in a tattered cloth, reminiscent of the style of an ancient city-state.

Compared to the centaur [Shura], he gave Jiang Mian a more dangerous feeling.

Another peak!

And... it's a genuine ninth-tier item!
