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

Ningyuan Airspace

A dazzling corridor suddenly shot out from the void, disappearing in less than half a second, but leaving two figures in its place.

"Hello, can you hear me?"

As soon as they emerged from the void, they connected to the military channel, and Huang Tao's communication came through Yan Ziming's watch.

"Can you hear me, Senior Huang Tao? Have you determined the approximate area yet?"

"No, the Bei'an authorities learned that the last place they contacted with the special plane was in the Ningyuan area."

Ningyuan is a plain area that used to be a very fertile land, with more than two-thirds of the land being fertile black soil. It was one of the main grain-producing areas in Northeast China.

Unfortunately, after the apocalypse, no trace of humans was found here, and due to some special changes, it has changed drastically over the years.

This place is now a desolate wasteland, with weeds growing wildly and unchecked, easily covering people. Even in nearby cities, the buildings are covered in lush greenery, withered vines and fallen leaves, making it look like a primeval forest from afar.

"Was this the area where the leader's plane crashed...?"

Yan Ziming pinched Ye Qianxue's cheek with a headache and muttered to himself.

Even after the Chinese leader's plane lost communication, it was unclear how long it had been before they received the news.

Roughly estimated, the information delay is five to ten minutes, which is like an insurmountable barrier, adding to their difficulties.

There was no other way but to go as high as possible and see where the thick smoke was coming from.

"Qianxue, let's split up."

"Ok!"

Yan Ziming soared into the sky, while Ye Qianxue moved swiftly. At this rate, they should be able to search the entire area in no time.

To let the possibly surviving Chinese leader know that rescue forces had arrived, and to also do his best to drive away the mutated species that might cause him further harm, Yan Ziming deliberately released his aura.

In an instant, dark clouds rolled in and lightning flashed. It was as if a god who could reverse the cycle of heaven and earth had appeared here. The immense pressure caused the surrounding birds and beasts to scatter, and all the mutated species that lived here avoided her at all costs.

Yan Ziming thought he would see a conspicuous plume of smoke at high altitude, but he saw nothing at all.

"Ozawa."

Her clothes fluttered, and a cat's head peeked out from her chest, which Yan Ziming then pulled out.

"Give me a direction."

Yan Ziming simply threw Xiao Ze out, and in mid-air, she transformed into the appearance of a young girl, looking at her with a face full of resentment.

"Can you please stop treating me like a tool?"

"I just wanted to rely on the adorable Xiaoze~ Hurry up, the situation is urgent."

"Then..."

Xiao Ze casually pointed in a direction, and Yan Ziming went ahead without even taking her with him. He was incredibly fast, and disappeared in the blink of an eye after only a slight pause.

"Hey, wait for me!"

As you can see, there are many traces of mutated species activity here. There are tree trunks that have been broken in half and collapsed vegetation everywhere, or broken walls. You can also see some mutated species kneeling on the ground, trembling under the pressure of Yan Zimo's aura.

Soon, Yan Ziming arrived in an abandoned county town. When her gaze swept over a certain place, she stopped.

"found it."

Below, amidst the ruins, the wreckage of an airplane can be seen, blending seamlessly into the surrounding environment and easily missed.

"I knew the military couldn't pinpoint the approximate location quickly, it's really hard to find... Qianxue, come here."

Yan Ziming descended the altitude, Xiao Ze followed closely behind, and a few seconds later Ye Qianxue also arrived.

"Big sister...?" As soon as Ye Qianxue arrived, she saw Yan Ziming's furrowed brows, and her voice became softer.

"Qianxue, take a look." Yan Ziming pointed to the plane wreckage in front of him and pondered, "Can you see anything unusual about it?"

Ye Qianxue looked at it with a puzzled expression, and immediately noticed something was wrong. She was speechless and said, "This... seems to be traces of fire being extinguished?"

There was no flame on the private jet, but there were obvious signs of burning; the surface of the aircraft was blackened.

"Yes, this fire definitely wasn't extinguished in a normal way, and did you notice? The wreckage of the plane..."

"The wreckage is missing too much."

Ozawa stroked his chin and slowly said, "Is this really the private jet of the Chinese leader? Could it have been around before?"

"No, this is it."

Yan Ziming wiped clean a piece of the blackened aircraft body, and a logo was faintly visible.

This symbol is the emblem of the special plane used by Chinese leaders.

17. Feint to the east while attacking in the west

More than 100,000 insect beasts launched an attack along a very wide battle line, which stretched for thousands of meters and seemed to have no end in sight. As far as the eye could see, there were insect beasts everywhere.

Urban warfare is mostly about head-on combat. Within the field of vision, mortars and howitzers are useless, and even tanks are greatly restricted. Lacking heavy firepower, the military, which can only use guns to mow down enemies, was caught off guard and suffered a series of defeats.

"Call for support, call for support!"

The commander here, seeing that things were not going well, immediately realized that he could not hold the position on his own and hurriedly called for reinforcements.

With Mu Mu and Ye Qianxue by their side, they only need a few seconds to hold out until they arrive, and the victory will be decided instantly.

As he expected, reinforcements arrived a minute later.

boom!

An extremely powerful aura suddenly erupted, stirring up a substantial wave, followed by a second, a third...

The battlefield here seemed to have been upgraded to a battlefield of gods all at once. The insects and beasts trembled, and even their souls trembled. Those insects and beasts that used to fly and climb walls suddenly seemed to be dizzy and exhausted, and they all fell down.

"Tch, these bugs, they actually know how to launch surprise attacks." Mu Mu blew on her fingers dismissively. "But that's all they are."

The galactic realm dissolved directly into space, and the space within a thousand meters in front of them solidified as if time had stopped. The insects and beasts were all frozen in place, including the bullets and rockets that the soldiers had already fired, all of which were stuck in mid-air.

Snapped!

Within the solidified area, all the insects and beasts seemed to be subjected to an overwhelming crushing force, being visibly reduced to nothingness; houses disintegrated and collapsed...

At this moment, at least several thousand insect beasts died, and a small area was temporarily safe.

"Hmph, a bunch of vermin, no matter how many come, the result will be the same!"

Ye Qianxue snorted triumphantly. The immense pressure brought by the World Annihilation had yielded even greater results than Mu Mu's. The house was pulled and tilted, gradually lifting off the ground, and finally breaking into countless fragments, which then decomposed into countless tiny grains of sand in mid-air.

boom!boom!boom!boom!boom!

Five deafening explosions rang out in succession, and five buildings instantly shattered and collapsed, with concrete boulders flying out like cannonballs.

call--!

The smoke and dust from the collapsing building were suddenly torn apart by a force, and vanished into the air in a way that defied common sense, revealing the sacred figure within.

The Qilin charged straight into the heart of the enemy territory, rampaging through the city. Its body, over a hundred meters tall, looked down on everything in the city. Most of the houses were not even half its height, and the tallest only reached its chest.

The five loud bangs just now were caused by its impact on the building. The insects and beasts hidden inside the building were turned to dust by this tremendous force.

With the appearance of three ninth-tier beings, the situation was immediately brought under control. The aggressive insect beasts were almost instantly driven to the bottom by this dimensional reduction attack and retreated repeatedly.

No matter what schemes they have, or how unexpected their moves may be, as long as there is no equal to counter them, it is like an ant trying to shake a tree.

This is the true impact of a strategically powerful force in a war!

"Chase after them!"

Mu Mu was naturally unwilling to let them go. These insects didn't hide quietly in the building; instead, they rolled out on their own.

This is a good opportunity to reduce the pressure later on.

The soldiers at the front reacted quickly, and the armored units advanced at full speed, pressing their advantage to eliminate as many insectoid beasts as possible. Otherwise, if they hid in the stairwells again, it would be a real problem.

The main force followed, intending to take advantage of this opportunity to launch an offensive against the West District.

Ye Qianxue led her troops in pursuit. Qilin had started chasing after the insect beasts as they fled, but her size made it difficult for her to move around in the dense city. Patches of the ground were collapsing, and if this continued, Yan Ziming would scold her to death.

Having no other choice, she transformed back into her teenage form and followed them.

Mu Mu stayed put, since she wasn't bad at large-scale attacks, so it was better for her to stay and keep order.

"Why did these insects choose this time to attack?"

Her question was answered shortly afterward.

The border between the North District and East District of Jiangning Military Administrative Region

This area is currently under military control, with all the high points occupied, allowing them to observe the surrounding movements.

"Yes, yes... I'll prepare it right away."

After receiving intelligence from the West District, the local commander hung up the communication with a serious expression.

He had just learned that the West District had been attacked by more than 100,000 insect beasts. If it weren't for the three ninth-level beasts arriving quickly, they would probably have already been defeated!

"That's true... but if a fight really breaks out, we don't really have any countermeasures," he said, scratching the back of his head in frustration.

Even with preparations, he lacked effective defensive strategies. Without the ability to use long-range and heavy firepower, the combat effectiveness of an army would drop by 80%. Facing large creatures that could withstand dozens of bullets and possessed tenacious vitality, they were always the ones being ravaged.
