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

Yan Ziming held Xiao Ze and tried to impart some principles to it.

"Aren't you tired of hiding like this? You don't even dare to use your full strength in a fight. As a celestial being, this is too unbecoming."

"Meow."

"I know you're still in your infancy, but you've already passed that stage. That mirage dragon, who's also a celestial being like you, looking at her like that, don't you really feel any longing?"

".....Meow."

Xiao Ze gave a subtle response, curling up into a small ball, and began to seriously consider Yan Zimo's words.

It would be a lie to say I don't yearn for it.

Immortals are sacred, yet also tragic. While possessing unparalleled combat power, they are also coveted objects by countless creatures, more than a hundred times more precious than the flesh of Tang Sanzang.

Therefore, these juvenile immortal spirits never dared to be too flamboyant. At this stage, they do not have much combat power, and once they are discovered by powerful beings, they will only face death.

Therefore, before they truly grow up, they usually seek out a talented and capable person to follow in order to get through this infancy period.

It proved that following Yan Zimo was the right choice. In less than a year, it successfully passed through its infancy and truly entered the growth stage, a stage of fighting in blood and fire. After experiencing hundreds of battles, it became an unparalleled being in this world.

But it is still just a fledgling dragon that has just grown up. It has a long way to go before it can truly be fearless of the world. If it is discovered, it will still be unable to escape the fate of being hunted and killed.

Who hasn't seen that mirage dragon roaming between heaven and earth? As a celestial being, her arrogance is unprecedented. All living beings in the world know of her existence, but who would dare to have designs on her?

Her overwhelming power prevented those guys from even harboring any covetous thoughts, nipping such ideas in the bud and denying them even a chance to sprout.

This is true fearlessness in the face of the world!

If it weren't for Liu Mengxian keeping her in check, this "fearless of the world" would have been changed to "invincible under heaven".

Looking at myself, I haven't made any progress since breaking through to S-rank. I haven't experienced any real life-or-death battles at all. How can I possibly become someone like Qing?

"I hope what I've said has given you some insight. I'm going to see Lanlan for a prenatal checkup now... Shall we go together?"

Today was the day she and Jiang Lan had agreed upon for her physical examination, and it was almost time.

"Meow~~"

"Okay, then you stay home, I'm going out."

Yan Ziming took out a new set of clothes from her room, put them on, then slipped black over-the-knee socks onto her toes and slowly pulled them up, leaving a glimpse of snow-white skin between her thighs and the hem of her skirt that left much to the imagination. She put on her little leather shoes, left a note on the table, and then headed for the balcony.

Thanks to the current situation, the use of superpowers in the city is now quite relaxed; at least it's no longer like before when even flying to high places was prohibited.

"Fly~"

Yan Ziming vanished in a flash, like a bolt of lightning, disappearing in an instant.

Xiaoze, meanwhile, was curled up on the sofa, his bright eyes gleaming with a deep light, as if he were making a difficult decision.

Chapter 100 In-depth Inspection

After leaving the house, Yan Ziming went straight to an old place, the place where she and Jiang Lan had truly become acquainted.

Inside the familiar research institute, researchers in white lab coats came and went in dense crowds. Yan Ziming, dressed casually, stood out as an outsider among them.

She began to worry, wondering if she had interfered with Jiang Lan's work hours.

As they turned the corner, a person rushing by came straight at them, and they almost bumped into Yan Ziming.

"Ah! Sister Zimo!"

Zhiruo, carrying a stack of documents, became much more enthusiastic when she saw Yan Ziming arrive.

"Zhiruo, why are you in such a hurry? What are you busy with?"

"Hehehe... Actually, we've made a complete breakthrough in one of our research projects, and we're just about to deliver it."

Zhiruo scratched her head and said shyly.

Yan Ziming patted her on the back: "Since you're in charge, then show some confidence when you say that! This is something to be proud of!"

"Ok!"

Zhi Ruo nodded gratefully, thanked Yan Zi Mo, and then hurriedly left.

She's starting to adjust to life here.

Yan Ziming thought to himself.

Since Yan Ziming discovered her in the Seventh District, she was forced to work in a government agency due to the situation at the time. Yan Ziming was worried that she would be resistant, but now it seems that there is no need to worry.

But it would be better to spend some time with your sweetheart, wouldn't it?

After thinking about some random things, Yan Ziming went to the laboratory where he had participated in research and development a few months ago when he first came to the Beian Military Administrative Region.

Yan Ziming opened the door and found it empty, except for some machines and Jiang Lan.

She seemed to be busy with something, so much so that she didn't even notice the lab door opening or Yan Ziming's presence.

I guess I still bothered her after all...

Feeling guilty, Yan Ziming found a place to sit by himself and just watched Jiang Lan, waiting for her to finish her work before reminding her.

She truly deserves to be called a leading woman in the scientific community.

Her skillful technique and the elegance she exudes with every gesture make her an absolute role model for ordinary women today.

Unfortunately, he's a weakling.

Watching Jiang Lan's retreating figure, Yan Ziming felt quite content, so he put down his phone and focused on watching her.

Under Yan Ziming's watchful gaze, Jiang Lan unknowingly busied herself for about an hour until she turned around to get a drink and suddenly noticed Yan Ziming's presence.

She was startled.

"Zi Mo! How long have you been waiting here?"

Jiang Lan waved her hand in a panic, accidentally knocking over the tea on the table, which only added to her panic.

Her face was incredibly red. She glanced at the clock and realized that almost an hour had passed since the agreed-upon time, which meant...

"I'm so sorry! You must have been getting impatient waiting..."

Overwhelmed with shame, Jiang Lan lowered her head, unable to look Yan Ziming in the eye.

"Let me clean it up."

Yan Ziming flicked her forehead lightly, then wiped the table with her small hand, and the poured drink instantly evaporated, much more effective than a rag.

"I should be the one apologizing. I'm sorry for interrupting your work. Please continue. I have plenty of time today."

"Oh no, no need. It's just a little gadget, a personal hobby, not work."

Jiang Lan said, blushing.

"Personal interests?"

Yan Ziming glanced over there with interest. Jiang Lan instinctively stepped to the right to block him, then realized her action was inappropriate and hurriedly explained:

"No, no, I can only show you this after it's finished..."

"what......"

What's so mysterious about it?

Yan Ziming expressed great curiosity.

However, Jiang Lan seemed to be in a difficult position if they continued to investigate, so Yan Ziming could only suppress his curiosity and said, "Which part should we start with?"

"Oh, Zimo, you're having a full-body checkup, right?"

"Yes, do it as meticulously as possible, preferably even finding out the sex of the cells."

"Pfft—" Jiang Lan covered her mouth and laughed: "Cells don't distinguish between male and female..."

Yan Ziming smiled slightly. Of course she knew that cells didn't distinguish between men and women; she was just trying to make Jiang Lan laugh.

"Have you been having any health problems lately? Why do you need such a thorough checkup?"

"Uh...cough cough, no, you see, we just finished a war, so to avoid any lingering effects, we..."

What she said was right; he had indeed fought a battle and needed a thorough medical check-up, but it was impossible to know what kind of "battle" it was.

"A full check-up like this would take quite a bit of time."

"It's okay. As I just said, we have plenty of time, so we can take our time."

"Then lie down here first, I'll do a scan on you."

Jiang Lan turned on an advanced instrument, similar to an X-ray scanner, but since it was in a highly classified national laboratory, it was definitely more advanced than those in hospitals.

Yan Ziming lay down as instructed, and Jiang Lan suddenly said, "Just leave one piece of clothing on, take off the rest."

"......"

Well, I've gotten used to it by now.

Under Jiang Lan's burning gaze, Yan Ziming skillfully removed his clothes, leaving only a pair of white panties, and lay down again.

Having finished the preparations, Jiang Lan, no matter how much she wanted to, had to get down to business and started adjusting various data on the control panel.

Finally, press gently.

Suddenly, the robotic arm on the machine started moving on its own, its tip flashing with a cold light as it aimed at Yan Ziming, occasionally shooting out a laser beam that made Yan Ziming's eyelids twitch incessantly.
