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

About half an hour later, the convoy set off again.

The journey was soon halfway over, and the convoy split up as planned, with most heading south.

After that, only three small teams and one large transport vehicle remained.

Jiang Mian leaned against the car window, seemingly bored, but he had actually secretly opened his senses and started to explore the surrounding terrain.

The existence of the misty passage might be a slight obstacle, but the weakening effect wouldn't be significant, since her medium of perception is the omnipresent wind.

After searching for a while, she found the communication box she had just put down.

The pool of water had dissipated because it was too far away and had escaped her control.

However, if he re-enters the skill's range, it's like having a mental imprint applied; Jiang Mian can control and solidify it again.

This is also the biggest difference between her and ordinary [elements] or [natural disasters].

Take awakened individuals, for example; they typically go through a process of communication leading to the mobilization of elements.

But Jiang Mian can skip this step, similar to the "refining" process in some novels, and directly take it for himself.

The water flow transformed itself, straightening the communication box.

It reacted immediately upon contact with the ground.

"Feeding? Finally connected! Number Six, where are you?"

The voice of Number Four came from within.

Before Jiang Mian could respond, Number Eight coldly said:

"Number Six, the Mist Tide is coming. If you don't want to die, you'd better get to work."

It sounded more like a command than a warning.

Although Number Eight didn't know exactly how many tricks this woman had up her sleeve, she was ultimately just a second-tier cultivator, and she had even drunk the inhibitor.

If someone attempts to cheat or evade the treatment, the medicine will take effect immediately.

At that time, even if one is fully conscious, the body will become a puppet, willing to do anything to complete orders, but the senses will not be shut down.

I heard that Number Six hasn't even activated his core abilities yet, and he's still acting alone. Isn't that just asking for death?

Actually, by now, Number Eight had a vague feeling that something was wrong.

This number six... is so strange, it's like he's deliberately avoiding them.

He needs to find a way to get her to do some work, to test the waters, and preferably send her away so she doesn't get in their way.

Other matters... we'll discuss them after the mission is complete.

On the other side, Jiang Mian looked at the mist in the distance, which remained unchanged.

"Mist Tides? So this is how chaos is created?"

No wonder two people dared to attack the transport team... This mutual aid society actually has such methods?

Indeed, since humanity's "glory" can dispel the fog, it's plausible that some madmen would secretly develop methods to gather the fog.

Jiang Mian wasn't angry at Number Eight's way of speaking; in her eyes, he was already a dead man.

"Okay, how do you want to fight?"

"Hmph, is that so..."

Number Eight didn't waste any words, gave a cold snort, and went straight to the point.

Both are on the [Chaos] path; number four is on the [Dissolution] path (sequence 69) and number eight is on the [Shadow] path (sequence 84), and both are quite powerful.

Generally speaking, a small mist tide is not enough to directly destroy the mist passage.

The barriers surrounding the passage are supported by a generating device, with one every short distance and guarded by sentry posts nearby.

The original plan required the destruction of at least one item.

They were already very close and could act at any time. It would also be a good excuse to get Number Six away, so even if she had a problem, it wouldn't be a problem.

"...Okay, I understand."

Jiang Mian manipulated the water to disconnect the communication box.

There's no way we'll actually do any work; it's just a delaying tactic.

She knew that since things had gone this far, the other party would take action regardless of whether she did anything or not.

Something's up.

Not long after, Qin Wu, who was sitting in the front seat driving, suddenly spoke up.

A faint ripple appeared on the path ahead, a sign that the barrier was unstable.

"Old Gu, activate your abilities."

Before he finished speaking, Gu An had already activated his ability, casting a faint golden halo over the car.

"What happened? Is the base station broken?"

Sitting in the passenger seat, Li Huan frowned; he could clearly see the fluctuations in the barrier.

When his gaze extended into the distance, a rare look of surprise appeared on his face.

The fog in the distance became unusually thick and surged like waves, rushing towards the passage.

This is clearly a harbinger of the fog tide!

The fog tide usually comes very suddenly, and it usually only takes half a minute from the appearance of signs to when it appears in front of you.

Although the one in front of us is not large in scale, it is coming on strong and is even faster than the usual mist tide!

"Mist Tide?!"

Qin Wu, as a veteran in city defense, had seen much bigger scenes than this. Although the situation before him was also quite dangerous, it was not enough to wipe out their entire army.

The convoy slowly came to a stop and moved closer together, centered around the transport vehicles.

Knowing that the passage's defenses were compromised, and with the impending fog tide, continuing onward would easily result in being swept away.

What a coincidence... there's a high chance someone tampered with it.

"Jiang Mian, sit tight! No matter what happens, don't get off the bus!"

Su Wanning, who was standing next to her, spoke up to remind her.

Jiang Mian hadn't been here long before this happened.

No matter what, nothing can happen to her!

"it is good."

Jiang Mian gave a brief reply, a hint of worry on her face.

If she hadn't known the whole story, it would have been quite a surprise.

Her senses subtly focused on Ahua in the other car next to her.

It seems to be itching to make a move.

For it, the arrival of this misty tide felt like coming home.

Moreover, someone had prematurely weakened that damned barrier along the way, and it had already regained some of its vitality.

Looking at Ahua, who was inexplicably excited beside him, Xiong Yu suddenly felt a pang of heartache.

"you……"

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly threw a punch, creating a gust of wind.

Ahua reacted quickly, crossing his arms and his skin gleaming with a faint metallic sheen, easily blocking the punch.

"Hehe... Captain, do you see, am I weak?"

It grinned, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, and licked its lips with its forked tongue.

Although there is no such concept in calamities, it still felt that it had just been looked down upon by this human.

Sensing the twisted aura it exuded, Xiong Yu's expression turned solemn.

This... the opponent is definitely a Tier 3 Calamity!

And that ability just now... was it [Steel Bones]?!

This is the ability of an awakened being, how could this be...?

The other team members in the back row were clearly not in a hurry to react. Ah Hua... could it be a calamity? And why is he launching an attack at this time?

What should we do?

Outside the car, the misty tide was about to arrive.

Getting out of the car might send you flying into the fog in the first wave of impact, but staying inside will surely lead to you being devoured by this calamity!

"get off!"

Xiong Yu gave the order decisively, and the group got out of the car without hesitation.

Ahua, on the other hand, seemed unhurried.

In its eyes, these people were of such poor quality that they couldn't compare to its target at all.

Moreover... now that the mist has descended, these people basically have no chance of escaping without [Radiance].

It just swallowed that human yesterday and took his appearance.

I was hoping to change my identity again, but I never expected to encounter this kind of mission.

After all, this ability is unique to humans and cannot be imitated. It will be exposed when the ability is used.

So, in human terms, it's quite lucky?
