I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

The number of Rank 1, Celestial Spirit, Mystic Ability users, and Ninth-Rank powerhouses is increasing rapidly...

Clearly, this is not something that can be manipulated by human intervention, but rather an inevitable trend; the world is facing a dramatic change.

He wouldn't elaborate on the reasons, so Yan Ziming didn't press further.

Furthermore, she learned that most people in prehistoric civilizations did not have superpowers, and those who reached the seventh level were already at their peak. There were also a few races that produced ninth-level beings, but after the five major powers discovered this, they joined forces to completely exterminate them to avoid leaving any future trouble.

"I wonder how Qianxue is doing... Knowing that girl's character, she probably called as soon as she got off the plane. Judging by the time, she should have arrived long ago. It seems she's not allowed to contact the outside world."

Yan Ziming felt bored again, so he picked up the crescent-shaped crystal and tried to inject his lightning into it.

hum-

A deep voice came from inside the crystal, and the energy shield that had previously trapped Yan Ziming tightly now enveloped her entire body.

"So it's activated by supernatural abilities... or can it be activated simply by injecting energy?"

Yan Ziming clicked her tongue in amazement. After she became the controller, she knew that this thing's defensive capabilities were definitely stronger than her own electromagnetic barrier, and it could at least block the attacks of a ninth-level expert.

This means she possesses a "shield" comparable to Li Haoyi's absolute defense!

Of course, every advantage has its disadvantages, and everything is relative. Consumption is definitely a key issue that cannot be ignored. However, elementalization can alleviate this problem to a great extent and is a huge help.

If she had had this during the pioneering operation a few months ago, she could have easily swept through those seven S-class mutated species by herself. It was definitely a defensive artifact!

With the Thunder Cutter and Victory Spear as the main offensive weapons and the Light Shield as the main defensive weapon, becoming invincible among those of the same level is not a dream.

Well, this is only theoretical. It's too early to say that it's invincible among its peers. Yan Ziming doesn't believe that this thing can defend against spatial abilities.

As the saying goes, "everything has its counter, just like brine curdles tofu," relying solely on brute force is unlikely to break through this energy shield. Changing the approach will yield much better results.

This energy shield may not make her truly invincible in battles against superhumans, but it will give her an absolute advantage in battles against mutated species. With her defense weakness addressed, what is there to fear?

"But why did she give me this...? I just don't feel comfortable using it."

No matter how good the item is, it's still a gift from someone else, and even if it ends up in her hands, it won't dispel this concern.

"Xiao Ze, come here and die—"

Yan Ziming called out, and Xiao Ze immediately came running from the room, leaping onto Yan Ziming's lap. Yan Ziming placed the crystal in front of it and asked:

Do you think there's anything wrong with this?

"Meow~~"

Yan Ziming's concerns were dispelled. Mo Xin, based on her experience, judged that there was nothing wrong with the thing. Xiao Ze, being a mythical beast, also felt that there was nothing unusual. If she continued to doubt, she would just be paranoid.

The principle of "if you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them" can be replaced with "things."

.............

Russia, the Siberian Plain.

This is a death trap; only slightly lower-level mutated species can barely survive here. As for low-level creatures like zombies, they would have long since turned to ice.

In this icy world, there is a secret base that is handling supplies. It is a massive operation, with approximately tens of thousands of people just on the outside.

In a conference room at the base, a group of high-ranking officials were talking loudly, their emotions ranging from intense to calm.

"Should we change our plans? This technology isn't meeting our expectations!"

Dick slammed his hand on the screen displaying the video and said with dissatisfaction.

"Seven of them! A whole seven S-class creatures and not a single one of them could be killed. Instead, they were killed by three people. What kind of nonsense is this? This experiment is clearly a failure, and it may have even exposed our true nature!"

“That’s not how it works…” Another man pushed up his glasses: “These three are clearly not suitable as subjects of observation; their strength is far beyond the average level.”

"Yes, we should use the average level as a benchmark. If it were a different battlefield, the results might not have been the same. The Chinese military would have to pay a heavy price!"

Another group of people were there refuting Dick's point of view, but there were also voices of agreement.

"Dick's statement may be a bit extreme, but one thing is true: those old foxes in China may have noticed something and are thinking of targeting us."

"........."

As soon as this was said, everyone fell silent.

This is not impossible!

The five permanent members of the UN Security Council have been almost suffocating them, with China, the United States, and Russia being the most severe, exerting the most intense pressure. If they knew they possessed such technology…

The calamity of annihilation!

The four large characters appeared in everyone's minds, making them uneasy and filled with great panic.

One of the leaders couldn't stand it any longer and said with a sinister look in his eyes, "What are you afraid of? Our ancestors were the great Salanti civilization, beings who once ventured beyond the solar system. Even if human civilization holds an absolute advantage today, we cannot lose this spirit."

What is ambition? Can it even save our lives?

The others secretly grumbled to themselves, showing considerable disdain.

What good is being great in the past? Didn't we still live a miserable life, suppressed like rats in the street by a group of human civilizations that had only risen a few hundred years ago?

However, they regained some confidence, and the atmosphere gradually calmed down.

“Rand is right, their surveillance of us has never stopped for a moment…”

"To protect the safety of our people, let's begin the secret relocation to our base in Africa. Any supplies that can't be taken with us should be destroyed. We can't leave them anything."

"...I second that!"

Chapter Sixty-One Encounter Battle

"Hey? Zimo, are you wondering how your sister is doing?"

Mo Sheng was processing the documents in her hands while holding the phone in the other hand, communicating with Yan Ziming who had just called.

"Ah... I'm sorry, I didn't know you were still working."

"It's nothing, I'm not particularly busy. I really envy your sister, having such a caring older sister."

"If you don't mind, I can be your older sister too," Yan Ziming said with a mischievous smile.

"Get lost! I'm way older than you... Look what I've said, you brat!"

Mo Sheng said in a frantic voice, almost revealing her real age. She's forever eighteen!

After exchanging pleasantries, Mo Sheng got down to business: "As for your sister, well... she seems to have changed a bit."

"Benign or malignant?"

"Of course it's benign! Have some faith in your sister, okay?"

"That's good......."

Yan Ziming was worried that her younger sister, who couldn't live without her, would cry in a foreign land, but now that Mo Sheng said this, she felt relieved.

However, Yan Ziming was still quite worried, especially after learning from his uncle that they were facing one of the prehistoric civilizations that had survived the encirclement and suppression of the Five Great Gangs. Yan Ziming was not at ease.

[What a miscalculation! We should have let her bring Ozawa along too.]

"Oh, someone's looking for me, I'll hang up now."

"See you."

After hanging up the phone, Mo Sheng looked at the person who had just walked in and asked, "General Yevgeny, have all the matters been finalized?"

"We can launch the attack tomorrow. Satellite radar has detected signs that they are beginning to move. It seems they have noticed something."

Yevgeny placed a war order notification in front of Mo Sheng.

"The tactical arrangements are all written down here, and your troops have already arrived. See if your troops can be ready by tomorrow."

Mo Sheng nodded, picked up the documents on the table, glanced through them, and said, "Okay, let's do it tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock. We'll take down their main base in one fell swoop!"

"it is good!"

After Yevgeny left, Mo Sheng distributed the orders down the chain of command. Of course, he only told them to prepare to start the winter counter-offensive, but in reality, he skipped this step and decided to wipe out those living fossils first before starting the winter counter-offensive!

This time, the Russians really went all out, living up to their rough and ready style, by directly including tactical nuclear weapons, namely neutron bombs, in their list of combat munitions, and the quantity is more than enough!

Once the battle begins, if the resistance is particularly fierce, then it will be time for neutron bombs to be deployed, and depending on the situation, there will be nuclear warheads ranging from 100,000 to 500,000 tons waiting for them.

It can be said that the main base of the Saranti civilization was destined to be destroyed, without any surprises.

"Now, we just have to wait for tomorrow's results..."

...............

"The battle starts tomorrow? Hmm..."

Looking at the information displayed on the encrypted communication terminal issued by the military in her hand, Ye Qianxue couldn't help but feel a little excited.

She hoped the battle would end as soon as possible so she could go back to see her older sister and achieve the promised final victory, thus asking her sister to do things she would never normally dare to do.

While feeling lonely, she was also a little excited. It was the thrill of leaving her older sister for the first time to travel far away and participate in a major battle that made her look forward to tomorrow's battle.

Since breaking through to the seventh rank, she hasn't had a chance to show her skills. During the pioneering operations, she usually works with her older sister, so there aren't many times when she's needed.

It was that battle with a few S-class mutated species that gave her a taste of what it was like to fight against top-tier beings.

Unconsciously, Ye Qianxue also began to understand Yan Zimo's feelings when he fought against the tyrant for the first time, which became a driving force for her to continue moving forward.

Filled with this excitement, it was soon noon the next day.

Ye Qianxue was in the marching column. Looking back, she saw a white torrent of steel, with military planes occasionally streaking across the sky, somewhat like the prelude to the start of a war.
